Tired of Restraint.
Julia left a note stating she was leaving home because she had failed in her mid-term examinations, and was tired of school. She and she was also tired of the girls her brothers look after, and the other parental restraints, which surrounded life at home. The other girls, who were visiting the Moses family, gave no hint to their parents to indicate that they were running away to a uscaute, which had the initials E. L. M. on the outside, containing their clothes. The police were notified, but so far have found no clue to the mysterious disappearance. They are working on the theory, that the three young women were engaged in the city to seek work in the chorus of some theatrical organization, Julia's sister, Miss Ethel Moses, is a well known actress, and was formerly in the chorus of Florence Mills' revue at The Plantation. Julia Henry Moses has the appearance of girl-ishness to be younger than fourteen. She is of light brown complexion, with black hair and black eyes. When last seen she wrote a satin dress, brown fitted trimmed coat and black skirts with Cuban heels. Her family is asking that any information about her whereabouts be sent them at 1990 Seventh Avenue.

Harless Girl Kept On Barge For Two Weeks
Mary Neal, 22, of 108 West 139th street, caused the arrest of John Overton, 35, of 35 Centies Slip, Manhattan, a colored man, captain of the barge "Athletes," charging that the boatman had enticed her aboard the barge as a dinner guest, after taking her to a movie show, and kept her prisoner for two weeks. Miss Neal told police officers that she met Overton several months ago, and had unsuspectingly accepted his show and dinner invitations, but that after going on board the barge she was kept prisoner in the cabin while the boat traveled around the bay. She was arrested on March 18, and officers found the barge mowed at the foot of Dupoint street.
Masonic Office Opened From Noon To Feur P. M
In the story in last week's Age concerning the new arrangement for financing the new masonic temple building, it was erroneously stated that the Prince Hall Temple and Home Association, Inc. office at 2412 Seventh avenue would be open from 12 noon to 1 p. m. Instead, the office clerk is on duty from 12 noon to 4 p. m., and from 5 to 8 p. m., to receive payments of the weekly $1 installments.
The suit-grew out of publication of an alleged interview with Dr Cheney published in the Inter-Stateattle magazine. Mr Douglass had just been awarded a verdict or $600 and costs from Dr Cheney, due for a loan Mrs Douglass alleged she made the doctor from insurance money received at the death of her husband, who was involved in the world war. In the interview Dr Cheney termed Mrs Douglass an advertisement who had a criminal record in West Virginia. Friends of Cheney say he might have notified the case was on the calendar and that he will have it reopened.

DECLINE OF BLACK RACE IN U. S. IS MATTER OF YEARS
Dr. Frank H. Haskins, is a professor of sociology at Smith College, and is at present a lecturer at the University of Pennsylvania, and on Saturday, March 19, at a lunchroom meeting of the Conference on Immigration Policy held at Hotel Woodbury, and predicted that, in 200 years the Male Race will fifth in the United States. Dr. Haskins expected that they had been a decrease of the race in the last twenty years, relatively and he uttered the prophecy that by 1935 the black race would begin its absolute decline toward ultimate extinction. The prediction was uttered in reply to question from Max Kohler, an attorney, who whitened to know if Negro migration for northern states, as a result of restricted immigration, be considered a serious menace.
12 Million Negroes in U. S.
"No," Dr. Haskins said. "I have made an elaborate study of the Negro question. The Negro in this country bids fair to disappear absolutely within a couple of hundred years. The black race has decreased relatively for the last twenty years. The Negro population is about 12,000,000. It increased only 650,000 in the decade between 1910 and 1920. "I will prophesy that by the year 1935 the Negro death rate will equal the birth rate and from then on the decrease toward extinction will be absolute. And this process will be greatly hastened by the Negro with ward migrations by industrial competition and by being scattered all over the country."
Texas Sheriff and Farmers Convicted On Peonage Charge
Ante-Bellum days were recalled by testimony given in the trial-at Corpus Christi, Tex., of a sheriff and eight Willey County officials and farmers, charged with pennance. Nine Negro vagrants who entered the county said they were arrested by authorities and kept in servitude as cotton pickers to work out their fines. One of the former deputy sheriff and two farmers were convicted. A new Orleans Federal grand jury indicted two Amite County, Miss. farmers on complaint that they had shaved a family of five Negroes. Charges of preamble in St Helen and Vangangho parishes of Louisiana have been proven in an investigation conducted by Department of Justice agents, the United Orleans reports.

White High School Students Warned By Cavalry Custodian On Monday Morning That Violence Toward Negro Students Would Not Be Tolerated
Coffeyville, Kan.—A determined sheriff, backed by his deputies, used tear gas bombs in repulsing a mob of 1,000 to 1,500 whites, which besieged the city jail in a bootless attempt to seize and lynch three Negroes who had been arrested on suspicion of having connected with an alleged assault on two white girls.

Veteran Official Dies in
Home Of John Hadwin
J. Angus Shaw, for forty years connected with the New York World, serving first as cashier, then as treasurer and president of the Press Publishing Co. until retirement two years ago, died Saturday morning, March 19. in its 80th years at the Red Bank, N. I. home of his old friend and associate on The World John D. Hadwin of War 1737, who has for a goodly number of years been attached to the World's business offices.
Mr. Shaw's health forced his retirement, since, when he has been living at the Hotel Metropolitan, Ashbury Park, with two personal attendants. He was visiting Mr. and Mrs. Hidwm at Red Bok when a sinking spell came on from whence never to return. The body was brought to New York and funeral services were held from Trinity Church, Wall street and Broadway.

Prior to the funeral, the body lay in state and was viewed by hundreds of friends in the parlors of the Boynton Burial Casket Co. 651 Eighth avenue. Mr. Shaw was never married

And when the mob, balked in its attempt on the jail, became licensed and started a badly advised raid on the section of the town populated by the Negroes, it was again repolled. This time with at least two of its members candidly for the hospital a search of serious guillotine insurrection. And then came three troops. 80 National uard cavalry under command of Major E. T. Patterson of the 14th Cavalry, called out under advice of Mayor Elmer Joyce, and military control, if not martial law, dominated the situation.
The trotbe started on Friday morning, March 18, when two women girls charged that they had been attacked by three Negroes. The arrest of Curtis Smith and two other Negroes, brothers, followed but Sheriff W. D. McCrabb, and his deputy sojourn on that day, were then arrested in a noncustody but that the probability was that the alleged crime had been committed by white men with blackened faces.
. Prisoners Were Released.
The two brothers were quickly released, but Smith was held awhile longer. Friday night, eight men mob-formed, and a group of white men broke in the doors of a gun shop and ammunition. The attack on the jail and the subsequent republic followed.
Then came the foray into the colored settlement. The mob of more than a thousand men met two Negroes and started to beat them up, but other colored men to the Associated East dispersion, and after about three shots had been fired it was found that Billy Wadles, 17, and R. C. Walden, foreman of a machine plant, both white were wounded. Waddles with gunshot injuries; that sent him to the hospital in a serious condition and Walden with a dislocated shoulder from being injured. Two colored men, Hesther Ford, a janitor, and Napoleon Anderson, were wounded. Ford-in the hip and Anderson in the legs.
Three of the whites were arrested charging with looting the hardware store, and turned over to county officials.
Convinced absolutely of the incursion of Smith, as they had been of the innocence of the two brothers early on Friday, the officials released Smith from custody Saturday morning, but ample measures were taken to insure his safety. The military forces cooperated in this particular. Major Paterson issuing rigid orders concerning the streets on Saturday and Sunday nights of all pedestrians and motor traffic.
The Military Orders.
Major Patterson's official order read as follows
"The City of Coffeville is under military rule with troops of the Kansas National Guard co-operating with the civil authorities in the maintenance of order and the prevention of disturbances.
"Of the Kansas National Guard forces of Coffeville, I hereby order, at place of business in the city to close its doors tonight and tomorrow night at 9 o'clock; that at 9 o'clock tonight and Sunday nights
the persons concerned in the city limits. If further notify the public that the persons concerned of an inflammatory injury by persons on the streets or in the military rule, will result in the arrest of the persons concerned.
(Signed) "E. T. PATTerson, "Major, 41st Cavalry, "Kansas National Guard."
As a result of these orders, Cofifoye settled down early Saturday night, the troops being in control of the situation. At the same time, the wouldbe mobbists, thanks to the courage and stamina of the officers, realized that they had been trying to wreak vengeance upon innocent men. There is a steady undercurrent of opinion here that the white girls who made the charges knew all the time that Negroes were not concerned in the alleged assault. And Sheriff McCabb is positive in asserting the authority of cofifoye pointing conclusively to white men, possibly with blackened faces, as perpetrators of the crime. In its unsuccessful attempt on the jail, the mob stoned the edifice, smashing every window, and now the county officials are planning an investigation to determine who were instigators of the attack, while the city officials will determine responsibility with regard to damage, to public property.
A curious amanly is the reported intention of friends of one of the white men injured in the rioting, himself a member of the moh, to take the city under the Kansas law, which holds a city responsible for loot. Violence. The law prescribes that three men are enough to constitute a moh, and the Coffeyville mob numbered 2000, when the women and children who mould in the crowd around the jail are counted. White Students Warned.
It was rumored on Sunday that Negro high school students would be interfered with an attempt to prevent them from attending their classes on Monday morning. As a result of this report, the white students were summoned to a special assembly by Superintendent I. A. McCormick and served by Captain G. W. Noel, commander of B Troop, 117th Cavalry, that no attempt at violence toward Negro students would be tolerated. National guardmen were stationed about the building. In the meantime, the colored students had taken their customary places in classes and when Captain Noel had finished talking to them, he bleeded the advice given them and making no show of antagonism toward their colored classmates. The city officials made a number of arrests on Monday of individuals charged with being responsible for damages to the city building.

Some of the bootleggers operating in Harlem are crying hard times, but others seem to be riding on the topmost crest of prosperity. Evidence of this is seen in the closing up of some of their places by the one crowd, while the other group is continually opening up in new localities.
There are scars of new jonita being opened on Lenexe, Seventh and Eighth avenues, and on many of the cross streets, and a careful survey of the Situation shows that the Italian hooch sellers. And the operators who belong to other racial groups are not at all slow in expressing themselves on the matter. Just why it should be is not clear, but casual visits to the hooch joints show that business appears to be slow in the area, but not in the Italian-continued resorts. One of the leading operators, in the group that is feeling the pinch, expressed the opinion that his competitors were gradually working up to a control of the hooch business through their ability to operate close margin, this being about developing a close cooperation with each other.
Control The Wholesaling
This applies to the independent individual booleger, as well as to the bootlegging, combinés. For it is declared that the independent operator is that in name only, being obliged to buy his supplies from the bootleger, and to take his business. And so strong is the Italian bootlegging group, and so extensive its operations, that practically all of the other race groups have to purchase supplies from them. In other words, the Italian is not only gradually monopolizing the retail trade, but he has, along done most of the wholesaling. Another significant allegation is made by the other bootleggers in the charge that most of the raids that amount to anything in the market are undertaken and alcholic supplies are made on other Italian operators.
"Cutting Plant" Raided
One of the biggest raids made in Harlem recently was one last week, which resulted in the arrest of Jack Reiss, a white man, married aged 27, giving his home address as 319 Hooper street, Brooklyn, but who was apprehended at was 132nd street, in the basement of the building being run at that address. In a report of the raid, officers declare they unearthed one of the largest and best equipped "cutting plants" yet discovered in Harlem. Aside from the large quantity of so-called liquars found there, the place was completely stocked with forged labels of various well-known brands of whiskey, gins, cognac brands, wines and corns. The officers then supply of counterfeit revenue stamps, both straigt tax and bonded warehouse kinds.
Especially to be noted in the collection of forged labels were those designed to show simulation of good old whiskey, aged in the wood for twelve years or more before being bottled in bond. The liqueur was stored in labels were pasted was in most cases hardly twelve days old
List of Liquors Seized
The officers sued 68 bottles of gin, 9 quarts, 6 pints, 4 half pints and 10 four-ounce bottles of whiskey, 15 bottles of cogac brandies, 18 bottles of cordials; 4 one-gallon jugs of gin; 3 one-gallon jugs of wine, and 5 gallon cans of alcohol. The raid was made at 5 p.m., and Reis was the only operative preserver. Many of the hooch joint operators take advantage of the popularity of various fraternal orders and use their names in giving individuality to the resorts. The most commonly seen are, "Elks' Rest" and "Elks' Cafes," but there are also to be seen hooch joint signs which appeal to the "Moose" and other of the secret orders, and in one case even the National Guard of New York is travelled by a place on the avenue, near 454 Madison Avenue, where hears a sign on windows, denoting it as the "369th
The increase in number of hooch joints operating in Harlem is apparent to the most casual observer, it is pointed out, and attention is also called to a variety of real whiskey and gin. The forged labs, indicating the bootleggers with 12 years of experience in whiskey, are being extensively used, and the credulous drinker is permitting himself to hope against hope that the bottles contain something near of approach to the real stuff. But it is a vain hope. Recent disclosures indicate that in many instances even the government warehouse supports rum distillers who hold legal permits to dispense whiskey an doctor's prescriptions with doctored whiskey, as a result of illegal tamperings with warehouse holdings.

PLAYER WAITS ON '555' TO APPEAR Has Played Combination Long Time, Will Celebrate Its Coming
"The day the Clearing House numbers' bring "5-5-5" as the winning combination is the day I'm going to celebrate with a capital 'C'." said a young woman, wife of a hardworking husband, speaking to a group of callers in the most serious and matter of fact manner, at the same time making the case that the collector is well suited as a collector, handling some $20 daily on a 20 per cent commission basis, her commission money being used in backing her own daily plays.
She went on to say that she had formerly had a much larger collection, as she had been getting the plays made by a number of her personal friends, acting on the policy that since they were playing they would play for free, and plays as give them to somebody else. But her husband had objected to this general contact, and so she was now limiting her activities to just the folks who live in the house where she has an apartment. She has been playing the "three river" combination for some time, it is still confident making a hit, but is still confident making a hit, the Clearing House balances will bring her " $55"; and then she will be repaid for the long and patient daily putting up of her hard earned $2) coin. But, of course, that also means that she will be paid if the banker pays off. Sometimes, the banker covers with the players' wins, although the never fails to take the player's investments.
Get Workhouse Sentence
Policemen of the 6th Division continue to win conviction in the Court of Special Sessions in cases where they have made arrests for number playing. Patrolman Paul Reilly played Jackie Rado rado Negron of 12½ West 118th street on August 25, 1926, on the charge of possessing a quantity of policy slips. And when Negron was arranged on March 19, Judge B. Ooethers found him guilty and exonerated him from visit over to the Welfare Island workhouse. Patrolman Arthur P. Stimpeyne (11477) was a little more busy than some of his fellow officers, or else the policy players were not as careless as they could, and Harold Jackson of 304 West 193rd street was picked up by the officer in the basement of 2400 Seventh avenue on September 23, last, and on March 14, Judge James J. Innerney sent him to make a 60-day stay in the workhouse on the Island.
Nick Garrett of 148 West 142nd street was another of Stirwess' victims, falling into the toils on November 30, when he was found in Room 222, in the office building in Room West 51st street, and Judge McInerney was along with Jackson on the same day for the same length of time.
Basement Arrests
Stirnweiss must have had some kind of a basement complex, for he went into another basement at 2477 Seventh avenue on December 17, 1926, and again on March 1, 1927, and on both occasions he found William Reese of 306 West 139th street with more policy ships than a mere player is supposed to have. Jeremiah C. Salmo, agreed with the policeman, for on March 8 he told Reese that sixty days out on the island in the middle of the East River, but within the workhouse walls, might be beneficial. Mildred Harris of 06 West 134th Mildred Harris of 306 West 134th street went over to 2155 Fifth avenue, and now she wishes she had stayed home, for Patrolman Pruschaw found her with a quaint friend Frederick Kernochan himself sent Mildred over to the Island for sixty days from March 9
Thomas Baker of 441 West 133 street, was not long in suspense He came from the British West India Company, after living on March 9, in the signage and station store at 2281 Seventh avenue, by Patrolman Caraetta, he continued his journey by making a trip on March 17 to Welfare Island.

Appealed For Protection
One 143rd street collector, whose operations have been cut off of recent days because of police activities, called the editor of The Age on the phone a few days ago, making a strong appeal. Said the colleague, "I don't want to be told by my banker that if you just said the word I could go right back to work collecting from my players that you could see to it that I wasn't bothered and that in fact, if you kept off my nobody else would bother me. Now please the word so I can start up again.
Just how the banker got the notion that The Age editor possessed such plenary power the collector did not state but he was told, just the same, that if he wanted to work while in prison he could probably not want he start up fresh operations in the "mum bert" game.

There was a seething mass of humanity in the streets clamoring, pushing and fighting to get into the Church. It was impossible to even get in the door. It was necessary to call the police and close the doors of the church. "Women and children first" meant nothing.

THOMAS TAYLOR IS FIRST N. Y. COUNTY BAUMES LAW LIFER British Subject Is Given Life Time Sentence On 4th Offense
Thomas Taylor, 37-year-old British Negro, attained the distinction of being the first man to be sentenced in New York county to life imprisonment as a fourth offender under the Baumes law. Judges Charles C. Nott did the sentencing in General Sessions and Taylor did the crying. The man wept copiously and long, while Assistant District Attorney Morris Merrill took the career, but the tears had no influence with judge or jury. Taylor was found guilty of robbers in the first degree for holding up John Waters of 172 West Saxby street on January 9 last month, an accomplice taking $5 from him.
Arrested by Patrolman Joseph M. Brown, Taylor came before Judge Nott, who recognized the prisoner as one whom he had previously sentenced three times, 28.08.1908, again for burglary on February 4, 1914 and on November 14, 1923 nine years later for grand-larceny. As required under the Baumstein law, Assistant . . . District, Attorney Panger filed an information against Taylor, and it was the legal procedure that the defendant has put the "habitual criminal" in prison for the rest of his life.

High Financing By Leaders Of Small Congregation Caused Woman Member Supplying Funds To Suffer Loss of $30,000
The imposing edifice of the First National Baptist Church on 125th street near Madison avenue will in the course of the next few months become a commercial building with stores and offices. The property was sold to the Marca Construction Company of 71st street and Broadway on March 2 and already the work of demolishing the building to make way for the new structure has begun. The price received was reported as $280,000.
Wrapped up in the history of the First National Baptist Church is a story of high financing and a woman's faith in her church and pastor. The church building, which was one of the largest in Harlem with a seating capacity of over 200, was contracted for before the congregation numbered 300. The Rev. L. Tischly contracted to buy the property from the Christian Securities congregation for the sum of $185,000 in the summer of 1921.

When he realized the congregation was unable to carry such a heavy financial burden, he resigned and went to Chicago. The Rev. Moses then took charge and June 1922 succeeded in taking the property. This feat was accomplished through the assistance of Miss Fannie B. White, a well-passionate, who put up most of the money for the first payment. For a time everything went well and the membership increased to about 1000. Then Rev. Moses resigned and the membership fell considerably. The Rev. Epps was the text page and during his pastry at installation on the mortgage became due but the congregation was unable to meet it. To have the property from a foreclosure, he went to a time took in a foreclosure. Finally Rev. Epps gave up the burden and resigned.

The attitude of the Government is fundamental, which should inform unions, not as employers, but as representing the neutrality. At the beginning they joined the employers in restructuring it. Even now they try to ignore it. its recognition is torpedoned upon by the Government, now at least in new wei-cauated unions. But only in a new province is there existence recognized as the only available means of representing the views of the labour: Provincial governments on labour questions, the legislative substantive of the Government of India, have on several occasions to consult public opinion or labour questions, but in some of the provinces the only parties concerned who are not consulted, are the members of the existing members to the Provincial Counts, as provided in the Legislative Rules: of some of the provinces, the voice of organized labour is not given due recognition. It must be conceded several years ago that organizations have been consulted and their recommendation accepted, but that is not the general rule.
There are grounds for believing that the attitude of the Government towards the organized labour movement is not only that of mere neutrality but that of suspicion, kindness of labour protection and every man who does the work of assisting these organizations is watched more closely by the C. I. D. (Indian Scotland Yard Department) than any other kind of organization of individuals connected with them. Every labour meeting not even excluding committees are reported by the C. I. D. if they could be reported to understand except on the hypothesis that the Government has a deep suspicion about the movement itself. (N M Josh in The Servant of India.)

The university is the largest institution in the country with more than 100,000 students (23,500 in 2000 and 100,000 in 2005). And yet it is the class of passengers which attract what are called in the civilized world wonton partnerships by paying a liberal price for them.
The privileges of these passengers may be summed up as over-crowding; heavy fares; want of lavatory accommodation on long journeys; inadequate waiting rooms at important stations; no supply of drinking water even in the Indian summer; rush at the booking offices and so on.
Side by side with this list, may be found the other class of tourists are run for tourists and for sports; special accommodation for food is made for these higher class passengers; they have good, furnished waiting rooms everywhere; considerable concessions are allowed to them, and every utmost care is taken to see that they are comforted and accommodations are even provided to European and Anglo-Indian third-class passengers.
Out of the sum of Ra$^2$ 23.7 crores (8,000,000) to be spent on railways during this year only 30 lacs (100,000) have been provided for third class amenities. This is a clear indication of how the poor meet the rich few, the贪婪 has known all these贪婪 of the lower class passengers. But no attempt seems to have been made to remove them. Lame excuses, however, are being put forth to show how Government is unable to do anything in the matter. A few of the excuses will be considered

It seems to be difficult to keep the Governor's message was read, our diet balanced. If we are fond of one particular kind of food, it and not enough of other kinds. But to be really healthy we must eat a balanced diet. By a balanced diet we mean one which includes the various kinds of protein, vitamins, and mineral salts. Carbohydrates are energy and heat producing foods. They include starchy things, such as potatoes, macaroni, spaghetti, rice, bread corn, as well as candy and foods containing a great deal of sugar.
The foods which contain protein in large quantities are moat, butter, eggs, milk, cheese and most kinds of beans. Fatty foods, as most of us know, are fatty meats, butter, cream and milk. Many kinds of beans, milk and fruits contain vitamins so if we get enough of these foods, we may feel assured of getting plenty of vitamins. Mineral salts are found in fresh vegetables. Eat some of each kind of food Avoid excess carbohydrates Do not eat two starchy foods, such as potatoes or onions, on meal Avoid too much meat. A moderate amount once a day is often enough for the average person to eat it

Household Pests
There are a number of household pests which are not only annoying in themselves, but are also carriers of disease. The fly is one of them. It lives on clothes, clothes to clean clothes and carries many disease germs on his hairy legs. We are realizing more and more that it is important to kill flies as soon as they come into our homes. It is also vital to keep all windows closed and doors closed at get at it, and all garbage cans covered so that they will not attract more flies. Besides the fly, there are cockroaches, water bugs, and mice with frequent infestation city apartments and dormitories. If you find these in your home, take measures to get rid of them at

Forever Free is a rolling good story of the Rebellion period as seen in and about the White House, told with sympathetic and understanding, which seems to cleave pretty close to historic accuracy. The love element may appear to strain the probabilities, but some latitude must be allowed for fiction. In a work that is avowedly a novel. Those who read it will take away an impression of Lincoln as a man and a statesman, who was essentially human in his personal relations as he was sagacious and farsighted in political affairs.
MUNICIPAL COURT DEFECTS
Considerable fault has been found in late years with the organization and workings of the municipal court system in New York City. The Municipal Court deals with civil cases, not criminal, and acts forty-eight justices are scattered over the five boroughs of the greater city. Jurisdiction covers suits involving one thousand dollars or less, which includes an immense volume of rent cases. The court comes in direct contact with the poorer classes of the community, including many of those of foreign birth, migrants from other sections of the country. It is therefore essential that the procedure should be freed from the charges of political favoritism that have been brought against it.
For several years the Municipal Court Commission has worked for the passage of a law at Albany to remedy the deficiencies in the structure and procedure of this court and to reorganize and reform its machinery. The Pearon bill now bore the legislature provides for the following changes: (1) A Chief Justice elected by the electors of the City of New York at the next general municipal election, with extensive powers to make new rules, assign Justices and general expedite the Court's business, (2) a chief clerk and a deputy chief clerk, appointed by and removable at pleasure by the Chief Justice, (3) clerks, deputy clerk and assistant clerks, appointed by the justice in each district, but bound by no requirements to give their whole time to their respective duties and all removable by the Chief Justice for cause after due hearing.
There is no question that the court should be greatly improved by, concerning the responsibility for their government in the hands of an elective social responsible to the voters of the whole city. Politics should be wholly divorced from any influence upon the judges or attaches of the court. In the organization care should be taken to obtain those court attendants and clerks who have not only given evidence of efficiency in their duties but of courtesy in dealing with the public. This latter quality is sadly needed on part of many officials in their conduct toward the public who have to depend upon their services.
The Municipal Court is essentially a court for the common people. It should be made easy for the poorest and the rumblest to obtain justice there, with civil and courteous treatment as the practice of all its officials.

HUMAN SIDE OF LINCOLN.
Despite the numerous books written about Abraham Lincoln and the political and military events in which he was the central figure, it has remained for a woman writer, in the guise of fiction, to describe a revealing portrait of the human face of his character. This has been done with rare vividness and discretion in "American Free," styled "A novel of Abraham Lincoln," written by Honore William Harrow and published by William Harrow and Company.
The romance of the story is embodied in the passionate attachment conceived by the War President by a fascinating and beautiful young Southern woman of the slavery sentiments, who became a social secretary for Mrs. Lincoln in order to secure inside information to aid the Confederate cause. How the President withstood her wiles and fathomed her durability is told in such a way as to reveal the simplicity and strength of his character. In the same natural manner are pictured the various members of the Lincoln household, including his faithful but often nagging wife, and the two bright and mischievous boys. Willie and Jack striking portraits are given of the devoted and over-burdened secretaries. Nedley Hay and Stoddard, as well as the cabinet members, including Seward, Granton, Chase, Wells, Blair, besides such outstanding figures of that period, Senator Charles Sumner of Massachusetts and William Russell the British correspondent of the London Times who writer of undeserved popular disfavor became the account of the Union defeat in the Battle of Bull Run and was thereafter known as "Bull Run" Russell. All these historic figures are depicted so widely as to make them seem living perennities.
For several years the Municipal Court Commission has worked for the passage of a law at Albany to remedy the defects found in the structure and procedure of this court and to reorganize and reform in its machinery. The Pearon bill now before the legislature provides for the following changes: (1) A Chief Justice, elected by the electors of the City of New York at the next general municipal election, with extensive powers to make new rules, assign Justices and generally expedite the Court's business, (2) a chief clerk and a deputy chief clerk, appointed by and removable at pleasure by the Chief Justice, (3) clerks, deputy clerks and assistant clerks, appointed by the Justice in each district, but bound by new requirements to give their whole time to their respective duties and all removable by the Chief Justice for cause after due hearing.
There is no question that the courts could be greatly improved by, concentrating the responsibility for their government in the hands of an elective official responsible to the voters of the whole city. Politics should be wholly divorced from any influence upon the judges or attaches of the court. In the reorganization care should be taken to retain those court attendants and clerks who have not only given evidence of efficiency in their duties but of courtesy in dealing with the public. This latter quality is sadly needed on part of many officials in their conduct toward the people who have to depend upon their services.
Whilst pains and skill have been expounded in delineating the character of general McClellan and the influences that contributed to his failure as a fight despite his great popularity with the army. The unfailing patience with which the President is represented as bearing with his dilatoriness in meeting the enemy and his insolence toward the commander-in-chief is a tribute to Lincoln's greatness of character and his unselfish desire to preserve the Union and crush civilization through any instrumentality which premised those results.
The Municipal Court is essentially a court for the common people. It should be made easy for the poorest and the humblest to obtain justice there, with civil and courteous treatment as the practice of all its officials.
The mental struggles on the part of the President and the confusion caused among the cabinet members preceding his determination to issue the Emancipation Proclamation are set forth step by step as dictated by the march of events. Lincoln was represented as revealing his intention to Senator Sumner, in response to a question as to what more he had planned, in a rather matter of earnest manner, which provoked such an enthusiastic outburst from the Senator, that Lincoln himself was affected by it, nevertheless declared that the North was not ready for emancipation and that he would damn his political future for which he was inclined to be grateful until he argued, "it's the next military effort in the saving of the Union."

The entrance of the Victory Life Insurance Company of Chicago into the State of New York, as a field for the extension of its business, is significant of the rapid growth and aggressive policy of this group of Western financiers. The fact that the company has been able to comply with the rigid requirements of the New York laws, is indicative of the sound policy that has directed its management. In an advertisement announcing its expansion the company set forth the following facts concerning its organization and progress.
It is the first and so far, the only insurance company owned and operated by Negroes licensed to operate in the State of New York. It is the largest capitalized life insurance company owned and operated by the race. It has more than two hundred thousand dollars deposited with the Illinois Insurance Department for the protection of policy holders. It has approximately five million dollars of insurance in force, furnishing protection to more than six thousand families. Real estate loans amounting to $175,000 have been made since the organization of the company all of which have been placed on property owned by Negroes. The assets of the company amount to more than $360,000 besides Illinois and New York. It is the house in operate in New Jersey Ohio Maryland Missouri Kentucky, West Virginia Texas and the District on Columbia.
Several colored characters play their part in the course of the story, including Mary, an escaped slave who shot himself in General McDowell's camp in the presence of Lincoln, sooner than he returned to slavery under the Fugitive Slave law, which at that time the president insisted he enforced. Then there was Luzie Wareley, the colored mantua maker who had bought her own freedom, and fitted documents for the mistress of the White House and at the same time furnished her with secret information of conspirations against her husband Jimmy, a slave in the service of Miss Ford the Virginian spy at the White House behind her securing this information and finally giving her life to save Mr. Lumley from an assassin's bullet at the Soldier's Home memorial. Some of these colored characters are represented by using correct English, while the others said "disi" and "sii" which shows uncommon discrimin
It was further announced that the company had written three hundred thousand dollars worth of business during the first
buyer makes sure the proprietor has diligently New York is a good child for loanance as for any other commodity appealing in the good taste and sound judgment of the buyer. The colored residents of this city are comparatively good risks as most of them live under fair sanitary conditions, except when excessive congestion is encountered. Of course all insurance, except when issued on the group plan, is based upon well selected risks, and most of the white companies have done considerable business among our people. There has been talk in the insurance journals of the indisposition of certain companies to write any more colored risks, but the practice appears to have been to take all the business that came, even if it involved loading the policies with an excessive premium.
Even with the large amount of industrial insurance written at high rates, the field among colored people has been covered but partially. There should be ample room for the Chicago company and its nearest competitor, the Northwestern Life, organized in New Jersey, to do a large and thriving business in both these States. With the experience gained by the promoters of both these organizations in other fields, they should be able to apply the same sound principles to the building up of new business in this section of the country.
DR. BLYDEN AND MOSLEMISM.
Referring to a recent editorial in The Age, dealing with the message of President King, in which he recommended the stirring of foreign missionaries from Liberia, a valued correspondent takes exception to a portion of the statement attributed to Dr Edward W Blyden, regarding the suitability of Mostemism to the native African Our correspondent, the Rev. James M Boddy, a Presbyterian clergyman now located at Minneapolis, Minn., writes so informingly, on the subject that we reproduce a part of his letter below.
Referring to a recent editorial in The Age, dealing with the message of President King, in which he recommended the barring of foreign missionaries from Liberia, a valued correspondent takes exception to a portion of the statement attributed to Dr Edward W Blyden, regarding the suitability of Moslemism to the native African. Our correspondent, the Rev. James M Boddy, a Presbyterian clergyman now located at Minneapolis, Minn. writes so informingly on the subject that we reproduce a part of his letter below.
Your recent editorial about: President King Liberia Missionaries and Dr Blyden was fine and absolutely correct, only the climate had nothing to do with the matter. Dr Blyden held that Moslemism or Mohammedism lifted on the native on a little higher spiritual plane than his present pagan religion, and he "postulated the hypothesis" that Mohammedism was a good thing in that it prepared the way for the natives' more intelligent conception and reception of Christianity. This you will see in Blyden's book, "Islam and he Negro Race."
Blyden was a West Indian, and I heard Dr. Grunke the eminent pastor of the Fifteenth Street Freshterian Church, Washington, say that Dr Blyden as a scholar was second to none. He ranked with such scholars as the late Dr Crummel, vector of St Luke's Episcopal Church in Washington. Dr Blyden was prejudiced against malatties, but he had studied Arabic and could read and write it as fluently as we can English. There was an abortive attempt to overthrow the Liberian government and turn the country over as a colony of the British Empire. Dr Blyden was supposed to be concerned in it, but no one could prove it. Before and after this attempt Dr Blyden had a British imperial pass with which he could board any steamship flying the British flag and be treated as the gueus of the British government without any cost to him. Few people knew this and I learned the fact from Prince Manafunnaq later known as Dr Cornelius McKee. He told me that all the correspondence relating to the British plot was carried on in Arabic instead of English. He showed me one of these papers and laughed when I could not read it.
Incidentally our correspondent approved President King's recommendation to the exclusion of foreign missionaries on the ground that they cause double everywhere. The order of procedure is cited as follows. First the missionary, then the trader, importer or merchant, finally the army or navy of occupation. The history of Madagascar, Hawaii or Shantung is sufficient example of this result of missionary enterprise. Reference was also made to the aboobon mission in Central West Africa. The only self-supporting mission connected with the Presbyterian Church where the natives were exploited to lay the liaries of the prejudiced missionaries. The conclusion arrived at was that it was better for the Liberians to do business with Firestone's Godman to do business with the missionaries. Probably President King reasoned the same way.

Cassandra was a lady of ancient days who possessed the gift of reading future events, but who could find no one to credit her readings of the crystal ball. The latest aspirant for her peculiar place in modern times seems to be a professor in sociology at Smith College a women's institution who is also at present lecturer at Columbia University. Dr Frank H Hawkins the lecturer in question at a meeting of the conference on immigration policy held at a New York hotel last week predicted that the Negro race in the United States would become restructured in two hundred years. Dr Hawkins stated that the black race in this country had been demeaning relatively for the last twenty years, and that the temples toward absolute delineation
The process of extinction were attributed to climate conditions and the pressure of industrial competition. He explained that they possibly would be retarded to a certain extent by segregation in the South. But on the other hand the process would be hastened by migration North and the scattering of the race over a wider geographical area.
This prediction was in answer to a question put to the speaker by an attorney named Max Kohler, who wanted to know if he did not consider Negro immigration to Northern States, as a result of immigration restriction, a serious menace. Dr. Haskins answered in the negative and added.
"I have made an exhaustive study of the Negro question. The Negro in this country hides fair to disappear absolutely within a couple of hundred years.
The black race has decreased relatively for the last twenty years The Negro population is about 12,000,000. It increased only 650,000 in the decade between 1910 and 1920

Pres. Ben Davis Pays His Respects To The N. Y. Amsterdam News
Editor Benj J Davis, editor of the Atlanta Independent, and president of the National Negro Press Association, replies to criticism of the latter organization made editorially by the Amsterdam News of New York in the following manner
"Count Us Out"
In an editorial last week our esteemed contemporary, the Amsterdam News, New York in an article entitled, "Count Us Our," sought to do just what it claimed it didn't intend to do, our contemporary, said that it had no intention to reflect discredit upon the National Negro Press Association but the burden on its article sought to do that very thing. Our contemporary said that it sees a grave need of an organization similar to name to the National Negro Press Association, but with vastly different functions. We are open to conviction, and if our contemporary, can give us a better program than the one we have, we will adopt it. We are doing the best we can under the circumstances on spite of the Amsterdam News, and those associated with it in trying to destroy the purposes and intentions of the association as an institution. We take the position that a poor organization is better than no organization
Our neighbor calls on us to count them out and says we cannot rightfully elect a member of our executive committee as reported by Leister A Walton in the Sunday World. In Mr Walton reported that the Amsterdam News was elected a member of our executive committee it was in trust. If our neighbor was a member of the association we would not hesitate a moment to count out but fortunately for us and unfortunate for our neighbor, it is not a member and as a consequence of which we cannot count out The Amsterdam News was not elected a member of our executive committee. We have never felt that this paper was in sympathy with the real principles and policies of good journalism. We have always regarded the publication as much local in view and views and not interested in national affairs except on presidential years when it sought favor from one or the other of the major political parties. It is true that the Amsterdam News did not an entrance at Philadelphia on the last day of the session and only did it when it got to work of itself in trying to part in the proceeding to a meeting which it was no a member of their institution to joining the association because the New York Age was a member and they did not want to be associated with the editor of The Age it paid $25 at Philadelphia and has not paid
The Race Segregation Decision
The Race Segregation Decision
From N. H. Herald Tribune
The Supreme court last Monday
March 14 established an earlier race
segregation as that of Louisiana
on the grounds that it violated the
generalities of the Louisiana
Amendments to the Louisiana Laws
at prior authorized summaries to pass
ordinary and including the white man
to establish a race to a minority
tructure there was a major
African resident without obtaining
the written consent of a majority
of the opposite race and a Negro
man to establish residence in a white
district except into a similar written
white minority consent. The Louisiana Supreme Court is instructed thus legislation.
Federal Supreme Court appointed to follow its decision on November 1917 in Louisiana segregation care.
Rare in the case of a
buttered bread, the

not be secured by political action
based on a suspension of fundamen
fewer farmers from the south will find work than on the decrease toward extinction will be abolished. And this process will be greatly hastened by the Negro's northward migrations, by industrial competition and by being scattered all over the country.
Of course, Dr Haskins may be right, but it is very doubtful if he can find anyone who will take his prediction seriously, and two hundred years is a long time to wait to prove the truth of his statement. There is nothing in past history of the African race in America to bolster up his theory of extinction, as the race has endured hardships and suffering and multiplied to an extent unprecedented. The black race has the quality of surviving and multiplying where the aborigines of America have dwindled and passed away. It is entirely more probable that the races that have been softened by the greater share of the refinements of civilization will pass out, while the hardier races will survive and carry on the business of living.
Cassandra received no bouquets for her prophecies neither can the Smith professor expect to receive any
a cent since Mr Davis paid the fee after the editor had lost to keep from being called a "bum"
The Amsterdam News has someague News of the functions of a press association. It seems to think that it should meet monthly or quarterly for the collection and distribution of news. It doesn't seem to understand that none of the metropolitan papers meet themselves as news gatherers, but they buy news from the Associa of Press and other great news gatherer associations. Our neighbor doesn't seem to know that there are ethics in the profession and that newspaper men like other professional men can serve one another by getting together and discussing the best ways and means of cooperation among themselves for the benefit of the craft.
Our neighbor says that he believes that membership should be vested in newspaper properties and no individuals Well, membership in the National Negro Press Association is vested in newspaper properties. The paper, corporation conducting the paper or partnership is member, and not the individual
The Amsterdam News says that it has every reason to believe election day approaches the association batters away the prestige, good will and opinion of the Negro Press to political parties for their own political gain. We are calling on our contemporary to state his reason for making the sale statement. The Press Association never had, as an association, attempted to sell or deliver its members to any political party, and the man who makes that statement knows that it is bitterly and wholly false. The Amsterdam News has nothing against the Press Association. The truth is, it hates Fred R. Moore more than it loves the Press Association because it does. Moore or does the Amsterdam News for having a paper printed by white printers, he will be printed by Negroes in a NegroSION. And we will add that he hasn't known a magazine in which the Amsterdam News was standing around Rural areas and matters expeiting a hand out. New York was expecting as personal services of the editor in the headquarter, but we have no pay for whatever matters carried for the patio or treedom. We know the amount it received in 1924.
What can be the reason of the Amsterdam News or are the Negro ranks for opposing the National Negro Journal or are they opposed to team work or a union of forces. There is absolutely nothing in the Amsterdam News or are the Negro ranks for opposing the National Negro Journal or are they opposed to team work or a union of forces. There is absolutely nothing in the Amsterdam News or are the Negro ranks for opposing the National Negro Journal or are they opposed to team work or a union of forces.

Commenting on a letter written by Archbishop McNicholson of Cincinnati, to be read at all masses in the churches under his jurisdiction, in which he urged greater missionary efforts among the colored people. Editor Dabney of the Cincinnati Union said.
Years ago, just passing adolescence, we remember the sensation engendered in Richmond. We when Bishop Keane threw open the doors of St Peter's Cathedral for special services of instruction to colored people. We still receive the thrill that shut through a soul when we sat down in that last church edifice. Then, for the first time, in a white church our heart was wholly filled with resurrection worship andoration for God.
Before Bishop can make this possible, we had sometimes sat in a little garden) corner of a Baptist Church in the God we were 'the white man's God.' He dwelt in only one part of our heart (for the rest was used with hatred for the authors of our compilation. We do not pretend to say that the Latin church has neither pre-incident priests nor congregations, but we say, without fear of successful contradiction that the followers of the Pope have generally been most inclined to favor their black brothers and they have not been unmindful of the fact, that dark races have turned them saints as well as high dignitaries, since the day that Simon of Cyrene stumbled to Calvary bearing upon his stalwart shoulders the cross of Christ.
It this letter of the Archbishop indicates an approach to that real Christianity that draws no color line it should be welcomed.
The Carolina Tribune is a recent addition to the Negro press published at Raleigh. It in its first issue it printed an extensive review of North Carolina's social program for Negroes in which it mentioned as the most outstanding accomplishment the effort to provide to deaf girl it said.
Finally realizing that genuine interest in any project is best demonstrated by individuals, first helping themselves to the North Carolina Women College purchased three hundred acres of farm land and island North Carolina, and created a modern trainee building. This building has dormitories, classrooms, twenty girls a space reception hall and assembly room, room using partners for the modern domestic science and sewing rooms, kitchen and during room a modern home project facilities, and shower baths.

ONAL OPEN CHAMPIONSHIPS AND ERSCHOLASTIC TRACK MEET TO BE ELD ON HOWARD UNIVERSITY CAMPUS
Washington, D. C.—Louis L. Melson, director of the Department of Physical Education, Howard University, and manager of the National Open Championships and Intercollegiate Track and Field Meet, has announced, the renewal of this event for Saturday, May 14, 1927, beginning at 1 p. m., in the new Howard Stadium.
The management is particularly enthusiastic about the prospects of this meet since, for the first time, adequate seating facilities will be available to the public. The sporting public has come to regard this meet as the Spring Classic and has turned out in large numbers to celebrate this occasion. But it has always been a serious handicap to both spectators and contestants to large numbers of people surge over; the course, interfering the contestants.
is expected that the new
ard Stadium will be filled to
tity to witness the perform-
of the best Negro athletes in
country. The American Colle-
Athletic Association is
toring this meet which is des-
to become the official meet
is Association. Particular in-
will be centered in this an
event. Institutions of learn-
are coming more and more to
the importance of track
tics and have inaugurated
ams looking toward the de-
ment of Negro athletes in
field. A large number of ath-
tleths is also stressing track
athletics, which means that a
greater number of star performers
will be available this year than at
any previous meet.
All first, second and third places will be awarded a gold silver and bronze medal, respectively except in the relay races, for which a first place, medal only will be given. Each member of the winning relay team will receive a gold medal. A silver cup will be awarded the team winning the greatest number of points in both open and scholastic events. There will be a special silver, cup awarded for the special events. A silver cup will be awarded the winning open and scholastic relay teams.
Coaches Approve Recent Changes In The Rules
Tuskegee Insitute, Ala.—The following coaches of the Southeastern Intercollegiate Athletic Association have expressed their views on the recent changes in the football rules as announced by the rules committee at its annual meeting held in North Carolina. W. H. Kiddle, physical director at Talladega College, and president of the Southeastern Association, "As a whole I favor the changes because, in my judgement, they will tend to keep the game open and to put a greater premium on skills and will also render less possible the winning of games by Flukes' and individual effort. I am not certain as to the value of
the change, regarding the back-
ward pass. At any rate I do not
believe any harm can result there,
roth.
Coach Moore Approves
and that is the big criticism of the game to day, that too many teams are prone to stall for time. Weaker terms have done this in order to defeat stronger when they have in some way gotten the lead in the score. The moving of the goal posts back ten yards I think was for the purpose of encouraging a pass or a rush for the extra point. The ruling that a fumbled punt is dead will prevent the quarterback from letting so many of them go and will try to advance them further. However, the ruling of the shift I don't think is of any value. You can still use Rockne's interpretation of the shift. The shift adds to the effectiveness of the game and should not be barred and that is what is going to come. Like the shift personally, I don't like the huddle and they can abolish it as far as I am concerned. Certainly it is a big factor in stalling for time and, when they penalize it for huddling over thirty seconds it will shed up the game considerable. I don't approve of wholesale changes in the rules, but I think the committee made some very distinct advances towards making football a faster and better game.
Abbott Says Changes Will Benefit
CLEVE L. ABBOTT. Tuskegee
The new provision that a backward and lateral pass incomplete throws a down and the opposing ball may not secure possession of the ball unless it is the fourth down, should greatly aid the attack and an added burden on the defense. Under the old rules three backward and lateral passes were dangerous plays, because if incumbent they were treated as fumibles. Removing the goal posts back ten yards will not greatly handicap those teams who try for the power after touchdown by kick off. Most teams placed the ball
Hahn and Wide To Run At 369th Inf. Track and Field Meet
Edvin Wide, Swedish star, conqueror of the great Nurmi, and Lloyd Hahn, America's greatest distance runner, are expected to take part in the first big track and field meet of the 369th Infantry Athletic Association at the new armory on West, 143rd street near Lenox avenue. The meet has the sanction of the Amateur Athletic Union and will take place Friday evening, April 22. White and black students the leading clubs of the Metropolitan district are expected to participate, with many high schools, colleges and various fraternities represented.
Diamond medals will be awarded to the winners in all events. A handsome trophy will be awarded the winning relay team, and each winner will receive a diamond medal. Entry fees are 50 cents per man for each event, and $1 per man for the relay races. Entry blanks may be secured from the 369th Regiment Armory. The is being conducted by a committee of officers and other members of the Regiment, with Capt. Rufus A. Atkins, 369th Regimental athletic officer, as chairman.
on the eight yard line, the kicker or holder of the ball in case of a place kick, dropped back eight or ten yard more and the try was usually made with ease. In attempts at field goals, where the ball happens to be near the side lines, the kickers are helped because the angle from the point of the kick to the goal posts will not be so great, of course the kickers will not be able to score from as far in the playing field as before. Moving the goal post also removes the hardships to both offense and defense in scrimmage at the goal line. Placing a one second halt on shift is excellent. Teams in the past have used the shift without ever stopping their feet or bodies, and many officials have not had the courage to call it."
Coaches Henderson, of Fisk; Taylor, Clark University; Johnson, Morris Brown University; Alken, Atlanta University; Jacobs, State Normal; Montgomery; Alabama; Byrd, Florida A. and M, College, Tallahassee; Florida; and the State Normal School, Nashville, had not-up to the time that these statements were prepared for release, sent in any comment with reference to the changes.

which begins in a New York chop house, where three men whose lives are being vitally entangled by outside events meet daily without knowing each other.
The story was adapted from Dixie Wilson's magazine tale, "Here Y'Are Brother," and produced for First National by Al Rockett, under the direction of Millard Webb.
Of course, it is a woman who brings the three men together—charming Billie Dove, who is the screen wife of Lloyd Stone's affections. The story is packed with clever twists and genuine human interest, and parts of it are a gorgeous visual treat, for among the various actings are some colorful scenes of the famous Hollywood Music Box Revue.
Lincoln Giants Trade Hudspeth For Rector And Eddie Douglass
Lincoln Giants Trade Hudspeth For Rector And Eddie Douglass
Eddie Douglass, former manager and star first baseman of the Brooklyn Royal Giants, has been traded to The Lincoln Giants along with George Rector, right hand pitcher, for "Highpocket" Thijspeth, first baseman. Douglass was out of the game the past season because of illness but he has completely regained his health and expects to play better than ever before.
Another player who will be welcomed to the Protectory Oval by the fans Sunday, March 27, will be Gerard Williams, who was with the Lincoln three years ago. He played with the Homestead Grays of Pittsburgh the past two seasons but because of a ruling by President Isaac Nutter, granting clemency to players whom he thinks are deserving, Williams will be able to play in New York, again. Mr. Nutter is opposed to the banishing of players for five years, because they break their contracts and think each case should be dealt with individually. He expressed his views of this subject at a meeting of the Commissioners of the Eastern Colored League in Philadelphia on March 25.

Southern Inter -Fraternity Championship Is Won By Atlanta Kappa Team
By A. W. CHILDS
Atlanta, Georgia—Hvaiing play de two extra periods of a nip and tuck, game here Saturday night, March 19, the Kappa Alpha Psi basketball team proved themselves champions by beating the Alpha Phi Alpha team to the score of 30 to 24.
Before he echoes of the referee's whistle had died out, the Alphas had scored the first point of the game. A few seconds of play and the Alphas had scored another, before the Kappas could pull themselves together and score their first point. After a few minutes of play—after the Kappas had pulled their first blood from the Alphas—the Alphas played the gaite so fast that the Kappas called time out to get the boys together.
This had its effect, for Squat Johnson came through with two pretty baskets that put the fans in to the air because of their brilliance. The Alphas had their eye on the hoop and repeatedly the ball-went through for two points for the Alphas. Hamilton for the Alphas was poison to the Kappas and came through with his fifth basket as time for the first ball was up, 14-7 in favor the Alphas.
Charlie Clark, coach for the Kappas, led his four brothers against adverse circumstances to fight until victory was won. The Alphas, believing the Kappas were coming back strong, started half off with the first basket, making the score 16-7. A great transformation came over the Kappa bunch with the Kappa fans velling for baskets. The now famous Squat Johnson flared up all over the court, making baskets from difficult angles and mysteriously the "Southern Sensation." Clark, would appear under the basket, and the count saired to 17-16 favor the Kappas. Now both teams backed to the wall with the Kappas valiantly holding to the one point lead. Long, tall, him Hamill, the Alphas let loose, throw for a goal and put the count 18-17 for the Alphas. Then came the times when it looked as if fate would choose the Alphas, then he would choose the Kappas; meantime? Sun Taylor for the Alphas and Spider Queen for the Kappas were guarding their baskets as if their lives were at stake. But fate favored no one. As the final whistle blew, Stanley threw a long basket which made the score 24-24.
One extra five minute period was consumed with neither team scoring. During the next period two minutes passed before Forbes for the Kappas made the decision basket. Then, in like manner, Clark and Johnson scored. The time went out for the Alphas with the Kappas on the long end of a 30-24 score. Squat Johnson led the Kappas with fourteen points, while Hamilton for the Alphas scored a like number. Clark, who played the greatest game of his life, scored eight points for the Kappas Taylor, Forbes and Queen played the brand of ball which stamps unison them the words "team work" Taylor and Dezon kept the Kappas busily watching them.
This makes the third straight victory for the Kappa team, having won from the Omegaes 22-10 Saturday and county back in the third week game and coming in 910 victories from the Omegaes. The Kappa Alpha Pi fraternity received the silver cap for having won the Southeastern Championship.

"Faust" is the Feature Picture at the Lincoln
The power of love to redeem the soul of a man is the theme of "Faust," an UFA production which comes to the Lincoln Theatre Through travail and sorrow the man Faust finds himself, though his path is beset by the temptations of Mephisto.
Always the mind of man has speculated on what a life re-lived would yield, in the light of knowledge of the future and his experience. Philosophers have endeavored to answer this question and the answers are as numerous as the savants, themselves and as varied as their creeds.
In "Faust," an old man, a scholar and an alchemist, is offered opportunity, by the devil, to relive his life provided he will argue that the Evil One may have his soul when he is dead. Faust readily agrees. All his life he has been a searcher after knowledge and life has passed by. At the last knowledge and faith a valil him naught and he falls an easy victim to the wiles of Mephisto. With one wave of his hand Mephisto turns Faust into a youth again and they fly on the devil's cloak in search of adventure. Faust finds wealth and women palluring after a while and longs again for the scenes of his homeland.

15c and 25c.
His wish is the devil's command, and they are whisked back, in time for the Easter profession, during which Faust first sees Marguerite. He falls in love with her and, phisto prospers his love, always with an eye, however to mischief. Despite the sorrow that follows Faust's ill-fated love for the beautiful, Marguerite, and the tragic ending of their affair, Faust's soul is claimed by heaven, against the demand of the devil, because of his redemption by that one all-powerful word, Love.

In an instructive, well-informed and vigorous series of editorials on the Chinese question the Indian Press (Dailies, Weeklies, bi-weeklies and magazines) exposes the drop designs of British Imperialism in China and conclusively points out, that in spite of all protestations to the contrary, the British statesmen and war-lords, as representatives of the financial capitalist interests in China, are determined to put down with a high hand the Chinese liberation movement, although the Chinese troops are also equally determined to uphold their social, economic and political liberties. The Indian press in general vigorously and pertinently protests against the despatch of Indian troops and roundly asks, why Indians are to be forced in this dirty business and why above all, the expenses of the troops also should be borne by India.

Ballanta-Taylor Is
Awarded Guggenheim
Fellowship Of $2,500
Nicholas J. J. Ballanta (Taylor) a native African, who is a graduate of the Damascen Institute of Musical Art, and Walter F. White, assistant secretary of the N. A. A. C. F., are awarded fellowships by the Johns Hopkins Gingerheim Memorial Foundation to do research and create work abroad along their respective lines during 1927-2012. Ballanta has done some distinctive work along the line of making scientific studies of the musical genres of African natives as compared with the American Negro folk song, having been aided in this work by the financial support of Goster Foster Peahod, who became interested in the young African musician and made his American studies possible. After graduation, Ballanta visited several southern Negro schools, both in the city and in the country, and material collected on these visits have been published as "The St. Helena Island Spirituals."
Following the publication of this collection Mr. Peabody sent Ballanta to Africa for a year's stay in the interior and among the Great Rivers of the continent for a further scientific comparison of the nature African music and the American Negro folk song development. Valuable material was obtained. The Guggenheim fellowship is for commutation of these scientific studies and for comparison the musical conceptions of the African peoples with the musical conceptions of the older music systems of Europe. The fellowships are usually $500 per year but individual admissions are made to suit the needs of each recipient.

ADMISSION
In a letter to William E. Clark, theatrical editor of, The Age, Mrs. Maude Culduff Hare of Boston outlines the plan of operation intended for, the Allied Arts Centre, of which she is the director, recently for the National Acquisition of Women for Community Arts, a course, Boston 558 Massachusetts, as a course, Boston Writes, Mrs. Hare;
"The Allied Arts Centre plans in work along the lines of the new art movement in America. Our interest in the Little Theatre movement is not expressed in mortar and stone (we have no theatre in the sense of a building)—that is, in an old, if rather in an old, if rather creative work. The house owned by the League has a small auditorium suitable for practice work; at the same time, we have access to the Barn. The well known little Theatre which is managed by the Boston Stag Society, whose performances are to notable, is likely that our group will have a performance there, before the season is over. "Through pixie art classes we aim to cultivate friendness with all faculties of the group who are registered in a Saturday class. We are opposed, you see, to the idea of separatism, and hope through conciliation work, to become one of the noteworthy streams in the making of an ideal New England and American spirit. "Owing to the nominal fees charged, and the many free advantages offered by the Allied Arts Centre, the work cannot be self-sufficient, so service as unsatisfied director in order to establish this cultural centre for our youth.
A laurest gives, the information that the Arts Centre's purpose is to discover and encourage musical-literary and, dramatic talent and to acquire interest in the arts. She is the child. In her leter, Mrs. Hare lefts of plants for a Beethoven concert, marking the centennial of the great composer's death, in the unique form of an "M" home at the Contes Guicardi, Yenna, 1803. Mrs. There prepared a program devoted to Beethoven and Prudence, New York, 1825 ago, after who was Beethoven's contemporary.
A sketch shows that the composer wrote the Kreutzer Sondo for the violinist, and that its first rendition was by Beethoven and the composer, the students of the Centre, and the musical program drawn from Beethoven's works, is performed by local amateur and professional musicians.
Alice Fraser and Male Quartet To Broadcast From WGBS (Gimbel's)

Gunnel Brothers, New York; Sunday evening, March 27, beginning at 11 a.m. as well as in English, and is now adding, Spanish, to her linguistic accompliments.

THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYES
Death painted the picture, and the scenes surrounding it were perfect.
Banked by a wall of floral tokens, amid which the broken wheel, symbolic of the passing of those who had long fidden the rails, was in conspicuous evidence, the remaining of Joseph C. Belgrave, well known resident, clubman and fraternal man of this city, were laid before the altar in Mother Zion A. M. E. Church, at two o'clock Sunday afternoon, March 20, for the last observance of respect that one brother can pay another.
The settings surrounding the obsequies of the deceased formed a painting that will forever live in the memories of those who came to offer this final tribute.
In the left nave of the church, extending from altar to door, sat the relatives and comradees. In the right nave, and equally proportioned, sat those who had known him in civic and religious life. In both wings of the gallery, sat those who doubtless had known him usually. Looking upon this host of mourners, stood the minister who was to tell these relatives, comrades and friends, truthfully or evasively, the impression the man had made upon his fellow men.
The preacher to tell these impressions was none other than the Rev. J. W. Brown, pastor of the church.
The Rev. Mr. Brown narrated the manner in which he had met the deceased, and the impression this meeting had made upon him. It was during preparations for a banquet, given by one of the Bible classes in the church, of which the deceased had recently become a member, that he first came in contact with the man. The general and efficient manner in which the man supervised the preparations, along with the dignity of his bearing, caused the minister to request an introduction. This introduction led to further acquaintance with the man, with the result that he learned bits of the early history of the new Bible class member. It was due largely to the interest which the deceased had taken in the Bible class on that occasion, and the impression he had made upon its pastor, that the doors of Mother Zion Church were thrown open to the funeral obsequies, declared the speaker. In his vocational activities, "Joe" Belgraves was one of the most widely known railroad and hotel men in the East. First, as a Pullman porter, then, as a dining car waiter, and afterwards as a hotel man, he had acquaintance with every veteran in these various lines of employment above the Mason and Dixie line. And in each of these venerations he formed friendships that endured to the day of his death. It was the memory of that friendship that helped to make the funeral picture so dramatic, so impressive.
While men in every walk of life were represented among the mourners, for the deceased had been a resident of this city over twenty-five years, and was well known in business and professional circles, it was the railroad fraternity that made the most impressive showing. The sight of such a large gathering of railroad veterans, some still in active service, some retired, and some who have crawled from the banks to positions of supervision, caused one veteran to philosophize that, "After all has been said and done, we railroad men are sincere in our friendships."
Apparently, he was right. There were Johnny Jones, the only full-fledged Negro dining-car conductor in the county! Charlie Hunter, Pollman inspector; Joe Price, the dean of Pollman porters; Charlie Smith a retired veteran; Sylvester Brown, still in active service, and a host of other veterans too numerous to mention, came to pay their last respects to the departed. And, repeating the words of the Rev. Mr. Brown, as these men, augmented by active and honorary members of Pollman Porter's Athletic and Social Club, took their seats, the assemblage presented both dignity and sincerity.
It was as a "Joe" would have liked it. After all, it is by the type of those who come to mourn us that our life is exemplified. To those who knew him, there is nothing this column can add in the way of etiology. May his soul rest in pence.

the first battle for his name. Who

bishop fighting down the proposition
that "Bush" had did in his
intercession with The Age

For instance, he says "I have also

he wanted.
The witness: "The American Federation of Labor is working to give the Pollutant porters an an entering wedge into the Pollutant Company, Magena, the Negro is the cat's paw for the white man." Where he gives his information about the American Federation of Labor we do not know, however, the second part of the witness is a bold admission, for the Ford to make: for standing (and standing for standing) in hard head boud low, before the doorposts of the Pollutant Company feels defending it against the just and reasonable demands of his brothro. We would ask "Bree' Ford, who is the cat's paw now? Let him answer if he dares!"
The answer is to be found in the fact that we have seen no direct statement made by the company nor an reputable white man or organization against the porters organization into a genuine workplace. We have done. We must conspire to the Brothro's Sleeping Car Porters from Negroes like "Bree'
I carefully agree with him when he
says the porters are a fine body
"I would venture to say that if the job paid a high salary, white man would be after the job within ten minutes, after the salary was declared to be raised." Is that a reason why Negroes, should work for Indian porters, such as such a possibility is oblived the moment the porters are organized? But where did he get the idea that Negro porters will be displaced by white ones? Does he really mean to tell us that after thirty years of service he felt for that Filipino scare? No, "Bray", there is no danger of the porter doing that: for it knows you wouldn't take them very long before they would be organised. The company doesn't mind paying a living wage, but it doesn't want organization, because organization could resist a reduction in wages as well as secure better treatment for the porters. It knows too, that it couldn't now it now pays Negro porters. Why, it couldn't even get Filipinos to do so.
Surely, "Bree" ought to know that when the Pullman Company wanted to scare the porters away from the Brotherhood of Sleepie Car Porters, it brought in some Filipinos and gave them the chosen runs and free wagons. The porters were wager than that paid the porters. How different is this treatment to the kind received by the porters, including "Bree", who had to "borrow
they are, buy their art, unlucky
'Brew' needs have no fear that the
porters will lose out with the company. The conductors didn't lose out when they organized did they? We advise 'Brew' to 'calm himself, for his fears are unwarranted, don't think labor unions are good for poor men white or colored, especially colored.' Whine! 'Brew' should, tell you, to compare with company statements he includes company unions. Maybe we didn't get him. Let him come again; for he seems to love punishment.
"Bree" also claims that "the race owes its present position in our society to men like himself and other colored men who have gone before." To which we say, Amen! Twice, or, had there been more Denmark Viking Tuskegee Native Solomon's Truth, George Harris' (not the editor of the New York News, but one of the characters in "Uncle Tom's Cabin"), the race would perhaps, be occupying a different position today. By the way, has "Bree" ever read "Uncle Tom's Cabin"? And who is his hero in that story? "I know." "Bree" also knows hundreds of porters who own property, and one who has a rent roll of $200 per month, and still another who owns kingly mansions in New Jersey, all of which has nothing to do with the porters organizing themselves in a union in order to reduce their hours of work, improve their work conditions and honorable wage for the service they render, instead of depending upon tui.
It is at the close of his letter, however, that "Bree'r Foe woofully exposes himself to the full gaze of the race which he says he loves second to the Pullman Company. He says he will die "When" she died she was buried from Campbell's Funeral Parlor at Broadway and 606 street." May we ask, "Bree'r this question? What was the matter with one of the many up-to-date and responsible colored embalmers here taking charge of his wife's body? Is it his wife's duty to do his own rice in their ability to do what members of other races have done?"
In, closing, permit me to 'make a suggestion to dear "Bre'." In the issue of The Age in which his epistle appears is an inspiring story of a victory won in the Supreme Court of the United States by a member of our race, sponsored by an organization which is ably manned by member of our race, right thirding Negroes the nation. We advocate "Bre" to read that story and if he understands it, he will then share our pride in knowing that, the race is moving up to a point where it will eventually demand and secure the respect of all enlightened and fair-minded persons in the land, the Uncle Toms and "Bre'ra" to the contrary, notwithstanding. The Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters is an outstanding evidence of this fact. Our slogan is Service, not Sorrow. Truly, Mr. Editor, we cannot take this man seriously. FRANK R. CROSSWAITH Special Organizer. NEW YORK CITY.
Editor of The New York Age:
I have read the letter from Mr. R. B. Lemus, Washington, D. C., and noted the comment made in his column by Mr. James H. Hogan, writer of the Pullman Porter news column.
In reply, I have this to say: The officers of the so-called Brotherhood must be unattached from the last written letter and me last up to Sunnyside yards saying that Mr. Mitchell must go. That is more than Mr. J. P. Morgan, who is a large stockholder of the Pullman Company, would say before consulting Chicago. Well, Mr. Mitchell did not go. Then Mr. Ran- clizer, white and colored, denounce the Pullman Company. He might have had one thousand, but they would not know what they were talking about.
One of the colored women who cleans my car down in Washington D. C., told me last week that theyichanged their cameras, worried, wanted to bring if they are doing the same thing in New York.
The Pullman Company states in the "Wall Street Journal" that their revenge for the last quarter were a half million dollars less than they received, and that was probable that through this digitation they were discharging the colored people, as they put Filipinos, who are classed as white, on the cars in place of a great many colored men. Every Filipino on a car means a colored man out of the service. Who is to feed these men? Mr. Randolph and the Federation of Labor?
Then, too, Mr. Randolph speaks of Mr. Powell's Liquor Bill. Mr. Powell is a very fine man and a great friend of our race. This is a race question just as the "Poro question in St. Louis, Mr. Randolph brought one of the white men to talk to the Pullman porters. He tells them to strike. Surely, he must have thought he was speaking to a lot of fools. He may just as well tell them to commit suicide. Mr. Arthur Brisbane of the "New York American," traveling in California, speaks of how nice it was to see the Pullman porter's wives bring the Pullman porters to work in the city. Powell showed the prosperity of the country, say it shows the prosperity of the Pullman porters.
Of course, we must take the better with 'the sweet!' The man in love with a woman has to take the better with a woman. With me, it is more sweet in the Pullman service. I was down to Mr. J. P. Moreau's office last week. I shat on down again the Pullman Company, and the Pullman Company is now cutting the melon. We were more Pullman norther stockholder of the Pullman company would enjoy a slice of this melon.
In The P. O. Swing Room
By DOF R. MUM.
The history of the discovery of out-hat adies and pains by P. O. clerks and the Department's attempts to deal with this new form of lawlessness was recounted in the last article. It was then pointed out how, the aid of Congress was sought, and how that怒身 body, inadvertently failed to collect the sick leave. But though Congress legislated analytically in the master and put a really fair law upon the statute books the all-knowing mind of postal officialdom, in high conclave, rendered judgment to the effect that the sick leave as passed by Congress was "confessory." This decision can only be understood when studied in the light of former postal decision proceedings in this article.
It had become a custom in the P. O. from long usage-usage for such a time that the memory of man runneth not to the contrary-that P. O. clerks acquired property in concessions granted to them by post official, not as matter of right but by authority. Here he has simple analysis, a property thus acquired was as real as any acquired in any other form, and for. Congress is any other power to take away such special property, in post favor by giving the subject of such property sick leave concessions, to P. O. clerks by virtue of his own right, was tantamount to doing without the process of law and was confacitary. Indeed, they reasoned Congress had traversed one of the great laws of its own enactment--the 14th Amendment.
But, officialdocto, sport, involved, plan wherequit, it could save Congress from its folly, and whereby the department could hark back to the good old days of former rule. The idea that formed the basis for this saving plan was that the department must be rememded import, "interpretation." They reasoned that even though the law said one thing, an interpretation that ran true to old-fashioned tradition could make is mean something decidedly different. And so it came to pass that the administration of the Sick Leave Law quickly developed in the form of a comedy in the section of the play where the official umpire is called upon to determine the question. "When is a sick clerk sick?"
There may be in the offing a new science which, when developed, will enable mere men to, make rules or work out laws, deffinite and certain which will test all cases of illness and grade them according to their "disabling content." Until such a science is developed—the department's "umpires of illness" are certainly in for some farcical offering to the already overwocked ideas of "interpretations." Some of the farcical results of these interpretations may be imagined when a clerk who has reported ill may not his home to visit the doctor who leaves his home to visit his doctor with
Naturally, among such a large body of men there are some soreheads, he speaks for the, majority of men, and for a friend, Mr. Hogan, criticizes me for speaking of the Filipinos and for saying that the Pullman porters are a fine body of men. Mr. Crossa the called us beggers. The new president has made him a master of the stride in the last fifty years of any race in the world. Was this done with the help of the American. Federation of the Labor? No, they have their old friends, those who have always lent them a helping hand.
When I go to Chicago, to attend a stockholder meeting, Mr. Crawford sends me on one of the Broadway Limited. I have travelled all over this country and in Europe, and have never seen a finer train. A porter sent an anonymous letter to my shop last week threaten my life or writing him. He asks me to get me here or in Washington, as he runs on the same train I do. He may get me as they got Abraham Lincoln: as they got our Sayou, Jesus Christ; as they got Mr. McKinley; as they are trying to get Mrs. Mahone and Musculin. I have friends. They would see that he was jollyly punched according to the laws of this country, even as other assassinators have nothing to leave his children but the name of a murderer. On the other hand, V. P. Coulson, Jamaica, Long Island, Pullman porter, sent me ten dollars toward the monument which I propose to George M. Pullman, which I take the opportunity of acknowledging.

out having his applications for sick leave blue penicillb by an interpretation that the clerk's indisposition could not be illness because it ill, he would be lying helplessly in bed. Or, when a clerk is ill for only one day, a few days' after his resum to duty, he can receive a curt note informing him that unless he can present satisfactory evidence of having benil ill, his application for sick leave will be denied. The clerk is absent on account of personal illness for more than two days, then only is he required to present a physician's certificate as evidence of such illness
It would be extremely conical to note aftermath of consternation in officialdom should a clerk, in defense of his not being home to measure the "disability content" of his illness, suggest to the department that the press should give him space in view of a good movie appealed far more alluring to his not entirely disability illness than that of an eight hour grind in P.O. And yet he clerk might find authoritative backing from mediosa should he submit that, after a confining duration of several days duration, an unhurried walker a summing in the park on a nice bright day was before he had quite regained enough strength the satisfy the Simon Legras of the P. O.
What is this thing called "satisfaction evidence of illness"? Is it a thing only to be called into being by a thermometer or a stethoscope? Does not the old standards lose sight entirely of that state of things which psychiatric analysis tries to Eaglepile? Is there no connection between the mental and physical state worthy of recognition by the department? Is mental worry enough illness or illness, or enough toxuallity incapacitate a clerk physically for "floor duty"? Then one asks, why all this connotation about a matter for which a simple solution may be had? The present allotment of days for the purpose of illness is ten, and only ten. And after a clerk uses his ten days, even if used madly, he is compelled to "pay as he goes." And perhaps after he付 goes, the all use of his sick allotment, such a self imposed penalty would effect a real cure.

Electric Farm Era Here Says Expert
"From a national viewpoint rural electrification has entered a new era. This has taken place in the country and hesitation were once the dominant notes, today we find hope and determination," declares Dr. A. White, Director of the National Committee on the Relation of Industry to Agriculture. "Rural electrification exists in sufficient amount to insure its future growth if the farmers desire for further electric service is stimulated by the present samples." says Dr. White. "Rural electrification is now nationally established." "Cheap electricity on the farm means volume consumption, compared with previous average consumptions. Electric light and power companies that are giving intelligent attention to load building, average monthly consumption is building up under these conditions.
"We need more power companies with carefully developed rural electrification policies, properly organized to put them into effect, that the farm load will not develop without intelligent cultivation.
