Shelton Hale Bishop, year of St. Philip's P. E. Church, and his wife, Mrs. Eloise Carey Bishop, daughter of Bishop A. J. Carey of Chicago, referring particularly to the reported disappearance of their three children and the inability of the father to locate them. The New York Age is in receipt of the following telegram from Bishop Carey, sent from Chicago as a night letter under date of March 4, and received in New York on Tuesday morning, March 5, at 1.11 a.m. CB6 94 NL—CHICAGO III.4 EDITOR NEW YORK AGE NEW YORK, N.Y: IT HAS JUST COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT A FALSE RUMOR IS BEING CIRCULATED ABOUT THE WHEREABOUTS OF MY DAUGHTER, MRS ELOISE CAREY BISHOP, AND I DESIRE TO STOP IT AT ITS SOURCE BEFORE PUBLICATION I WANT TO INFORM YOU THAT SHE IS AT MY HOME IN CHICAGO AND CAME HERE IN A NORMAL MANNER AND FOR VERY DEFINITE REASONS. I KNOW THAT YOUR PAPER IS FAIR IN SPIRIT BUT THIS IS TO CORRECT ANY MISINFORMATION. THIS IS TO BE CONSTRUED AS LEGAL NOTICE REGARDING THE TRUTH OF THESE FACTS. RESPECTFULLY, The papers filed showed that Mr. Allen and Mrs. Delsarte were married on January 26, 1921, by the Rev. Richard Manuel Bolden of Manhattan, and that they lived as man and wife at the 131st street address for some time before Mr. Allen discovered that Delsarte, who had been a practicing attorney in Brooklyn, was still alive, and that he is still the husband of Mrs. Delsarte Allen. Married Delsarte in 1910. It was shown that Walter W. Delsarte had married Maud Pearl La Van on December 24, 1910, at Toledo, Ohio, by the Rev. Ernest Bourner Allen, a Congregational minister; that the Delsarte lived in Brooklyn; that time of her marriage to George W. Allen, Mrs. Delsarte a husband; that alive; that he is still alive and actively engaged in the real estate business in Detroit On these grounds, Mr. Allen asked annulment of his marriage to Mrs. Delsarte-Allen, together with costs and disbursements in the suit. In her reply, Mrs. Delsarte-Allen set forth a denial that she knew her husband was still alive, she admitted the marriage to Mrs. Delsarte in Toledo, 1910, be claimed that about August, 1912 Delsarte had absented himself from her, and that for five years she had made diligent inquiry from all available sources as to his whereabouts, but without avail; and that before contracting marriage with Allen she had his cooperation in making the search; and that it was not until she was convinced that Delsarte was dead that she entered into a marriage contract with Allen Belioves Marriage Valid. She contended further that when summoned in this action she had again made an effort to discover the whereabouts of her missing husband, and that she had visited Mr Allen's lawyer, requesting information as to where Delsarte is located, but had failed to secure the desired information; that she believes her marriage with Allen is valid and still subsists. It was charged by Mrs Delsarte-Allen that her marriage with Allen was by his, Allen's, advice and direction; that he had full and complete knowledge of her entire course and situation and elected to go forward with the contract to marriage; that in or about July, 1923, Allen treated her cruelly and drove her from the house by physical violence, that by a false charge he had caused her fines and imprisonment and that when she entered suit for malicious prosecution, he had entered as a defense that a wife could not sue her husband, which defense was sustained by the Court of Appeals. Rev P. A. Cullen On Stand. In offering testimony to support her contentions, Mrs. Delsarte-Allen, called the Rev. Frederick A. Cullen, pastor of Salem M. E. Church, as a witness in her behalf, testified that at the time of the projected marriage, he had vised Mr. Allen, who was serving as assistant pastor of Salem, to advertise in the papers for Delsarte and to ascertain his whereabouts, if possible, before marrying Mrs. Delsarte. Justice May, in his decision, declared that the evidence showed Walter W. Delsarte to have been alive at time of Allen's marriage to Mrs. Delsarte; that there was no decree of annulment or divorce, and that she was 'dissqualified from entering into another marriage. He also declared that there was no circumstances which would justify a court of equity in stopping Mr. Allen from instituting the annulment action. Further, Justice May found that facts alleged in the complaint had been sustained, and ordered the marriage annulled. Mrs. Delsarte-Allen's attorney, K. Courtenjohnston, of 50 Pine street, asked for and was granted sixty days in which to file his appeal. Attorney Rufus L. Perry of 374 Fulton street, Brooklyn, was counsel for Mr. Allen.

This text chosen by Bishop L. W. Kyles of Winston-Salem, N. C., for his sermon delivered at Fleet Street Church on Sunday morning was an exoration to open mindedness on moral and spiritual ideals, a chosen activity of the consciousness, and an appeal to the deep spiritual emotions of the soul. He said in part: "The first duty of man is to know God and to take a definite stand in reference to moral and spiritual ideals in this life. Without a spiritual interpretation of God there can be no exhilaration of the spirit therein. Every man is charged with the duty in making the right choice of life, and it is the inherent right of every individual to think for himself: for to win in the great struggle of life for righteousness, we must gird ourselves with implements of war, take up the whole armour of God that we may be able to stand in the great day. The importance of such faithfulness is, rest from all religious doubts and fears; rest which is the result from the consciousness of guilt and freedom from sin and the corruption of sin. By walking in this way we have peace and joy: that passeth all understanding, "and ye shall find rest for your souls. The sermon was an appeal to all mankind to not forget, in the effort to perfect the program of the "new day" the standards set up by the fathers who found comfort and satisfaction by walking in this way. Funeral services were held at the military barley Henley at 2 p.m. The deceased was an old member, from point, of service, of this church. "Ham's Sin and Noah's Curse," the fourth sermon of the series being delivered by Rev. W. C. Brown was the theme at the evening service.

M Clark of Birmingham, Ala., will be the speaker A grand musical festival lasting three nights will be given at the church, March 12, 13 and 14. Nazarone Long ilius The Rev. Dr Henry Hugh Proctor filled his pulpit at both services Sunday, speaking at the morning hour on "In the Footsteps of the Master amid the Hills of Nazareth." He dwelt on the message, the power and the secret of the Syrian Hills, and made a plea for each one to live up to his best, climb the peak of obedience, self-denial and self-sacrifice. He held that since God was closer than man. He was our inner environment, and should control our conduct. "What Pig Takes Another Corn?" formed the theme of the subject Sunday evening. From this he made a strong plea to live for others. The one should dominate the animal and make the human. He paid a high tribute to others and gave the most unselfish class on earth. The best of yourself and give your self away," he said "Those who live for others are the salt of the earth, get the most joy out of this life and they live forever afterwards."

Concord Baptist Church Last Sunday began at Concord with the appearance of being a busy day. In the Sunday school the opening worship period was pleasingly varied by the Primary Department, which took charge. At the morning service, the pastor prea.hed from the second account of the Creation, emphasizing vital contribution soil tillers make to society, and the extreme necessity for their type in the Christian church. He, with the deacons, fellowshipped about twenty persons. Immediately following this service, the pastor preached the funeral sermon of Mrs. Mary J. Corprew. Going from this service, the pastor and choir took part in an all-church ceremony at the Beren Baptist Church, at the invitation of Rev. S. T. Eldridge. At the same hour the Concorda Trio was singing over Station WLTH. At six o'clock the B. Y. P.

And Penn Terminal Districts Move To Organize Voluntary Pension Fund Organization Plans To Give Additional Protection To Porter Retired On Small Pension and To Protect Men Forced Out Prematurely By James H. Hogans The first definite strife a movement that will be from active service, has b the Pullman porters' group and the New York Central is titled "The Pullman P Association." The first definite stride in what is intended as a movement that will be of aid to members retired from active service, has been taken by members of the Pullman porters' group in the Penn. Terminal and the New York Central districts. The movement is titled "The Pullman Porters' Voluntary Pension Association." Application blanks are now being distributed in these other districts. CORONA CHURCH For several months past, meetings have been held fortnightly, at 39 W. Worc. 139th street, at which various angles to the formation of the association were discussed. Although it is the plight in which the average retired porter of today finds himself that has inspired the birth of this movement, all Negro employees of the Quillman service are eligible for membership. Declares Amount of Pension From Employer, The Law and The Doctor Have Made Formation Imperative. The small pension which the retired potter receives from the company stated one of the sponsors, makes the formation of such a movement among our group imperative years back when the porter was allowed to work as long as he was able to board a car, little or no attention was given to the subject of retirement, virtually there was no particular age at when the porter had to step down. Usually it was death that issued the order. "All the moveover, has been charged. Between the employees' insurance law, which makes it compulsory for the employee to be retired a 70 and the physical examination which the porter has to undergo yearly, a new condition has arisen within our group. It is with the idea of grappling with the economic phases of the new order of things that we are endeavoring to point to, body so that in the event the member is by reason of ill health or accident, prematurely retired, he will have something coming upon him what the company gives him.

JOURNAL FAVORS GRENTHAL NEW COURT BILL --- For several years Assemblyman Abraham Grenthal has put a bill through the State Legislature which provides for the dividing of the present Municipal Court District into two districts. This would relieve the present congestion of the Seventh District Court and make possible the election of Negro judges from the newly created district. Governor Smith always vetoed the bill. The Age has advocated and supported this measure along with other colored papers, but until recently none of the white press have come out in its favor. Last week, however, The N. Y. Journal, largest of the Hearst publications, published the following editorial in the Harlem and Bronx section in support of the bill "Work is being rushed on the new courthouse at One Hundred and Fifty-first street and Amsterdam avenue. The building will be occupied by the Seventh District Municipal Court, Washington Heights Magistrate's Court and uptown Traffic Court. "When the structure is completed this Spring, the Seventh District Municipal Court will be moved from its present inadequate quarters on One Hundred and Twenty-fifth street, near Eighth avenue. At the same time the Heights Magistrate's Court will be transferred from the small building at One Hundred and Sixty-seventh street and St. Nicholas avenue. "That will help relieve the congestion in courts on Washington Heights—but what of Harlem "Moving the Municipal Court from Harlem to the Heights deprives Harlem of its courthouse. With the court on the Heights, Harlemites will be forced to journey several miles to have their legal difficulties settled The present Seventh District Municipal Court should be divided into two districts, one for Harlem and one for Washington Heights. This would permit the erection of a new Municipal Court building in the Harlem district. "A bill provided for a clause in the boundary lines of the Seventh District has been introduced by the Legislature by Assembly in Traigham Grenthal Political pickup over judgements has prevented the passage of such a measure that far. "The Seventh Municipal Court District is the largest in the city. It extends from One Hundred and Tenth street to Two Hundred and Fifteenth street and from the Hullson River to Dithaism Avenue. It was laid out many years ago. Now then the population of our Mhattan has doubled." "Harlem has grown large enough to have its own Municipal Court building. Its residents and business men should not be compelled to travel to Washington Heights for justice."

K. Wilson, chairman of the House appropriations committee, after a visit to the Durham college, stated as his opinion that the State should make the necessary appropriations to further the work and that the institution could not be amalgamated with the Greensboro school. New Building at Durham. It is pointed out that a new administration building, to cost about $135,000, has been secured and is in course of erection at Durham, and that the budget committee has raised about $45,000 more for permanent improvements. The administration building will be ready for occupancy in the fall of 1929. Investigation of the proposition was in the hands of a committee composed of Senators Beam, Tapp and Whedbee, and Representatives Hanes, Pruden, Spence and Wilson Hanes and Pruden visited the Durham school and were impressed by the possibilities of the institution. The appropriations committee chairman believes the State ought to make a more considerable provision for the State College and its expansion program Opposed The Merger. The consolidation proposition was strongly opposed by Dr J F Shepard, president of the Durham college, who was its founder, and who has been supported throughout the 19 years of its existence by many of Durham's leading citizens, including the late F B and B N Duke. He was backed up in this position by Dr K L Flowers, chairman, and the entire board of trustees. It developed, while the matter was pending, that the A & T College people were active in support of the measure, and that a concert effort was made through letters to the alumni asking each alumni to write letters favoring the merger to State legislators to create an atmosphere favoring the consortium.

SERGT. GONZALES' VERDUN GOLD BOOK NAME ENROLLED ON Second Soldier Of Old 15th To Be Honored By French City Another Harlem soldier was honored last week by having his name entered in the "Book of Gold" of the City of Verdun, and by receiving the Verdun medal for heroic service in the battles of Verdun, Argonne Forest and the Meuse. Sergeant Fernando P. Gonzales is the name of the soldier referred to. He served overseas as a corporal in Company A of the 369th Infantry, and has continued his service with the successors of the overseas regiment, the present 369th Infantry N Y. N C. He is a sergeant in company I of the new regiment. This award is made by the Association des Aucieus Combattants of Verdun, an organization composed of officials and prominent citizens of the City of Verdun France, noted for its heroic resistance to the German advance during the world war. The "Book of Gold" will eventually contain the names or all soldiers who participated in the defense of Verdun, but Sergeant Gonzales is one of the few American soldiers, thus far, to have been so honored Lieut Frank E. Spencer, who served overseas as regimental sergeant major, is the only other non-commissioned officer of the regiment to have been so honored.

The choice of a cabinet is susceptible to certain limitations, both as to political availability and geographical selection, which makes it difficult to mame the individual best fitted for the particular portfolio assigned to him. As a rule, the President is expected to names members of his own political party in selecting his advisers. There may be exceptions to this unwritten rule, as in the case of Grover Cleveland who selected Judge Walter Q. Gresham, a Republican, for his Secretary of State. The late Theodore Roosevelt named two Democrats among his advisers, while President Taft named one. So it is quite allowable that President Hoover should name a Minnesota Democrat, William DeWitt Mitchell, as his Attorney General. Mr. Mitchell has grown up in the Department of Justice and his appointment is justified on the ground of his legal ability and experience. As a rule it is hard to find an eminent lawyer available for this post, who is not handicapped by his corporation connections. The choice of Henry I. Sumson of New York for Secretary of State is one that will command confidence and approval by those who have followed his career since he ran for Governor. As an adjuster of foreign relations in Mexico and Nicaragua and a pacifier of the Philippines, Mr. Stimson has proved the possession of rare diplomatic qualities. The retention of Andrew W. Mellon as Secretary of the Treasury is a deserved tribute to his handling of the national finance, though there are details of Mr. Mellon's administration that might be improved in the cause of justice and fairplay for government employees. Ex-Congressman James W. Good of Iowa, Secretary of War, and Walter Brown of Ohio, as postmaster General, are the two typical politicians of the Cabinet, who know how to deal with the political leaders and make the right kind of appointments. Dr. Ray Lyman Wilbur of California. Secretary of the Interior, is probably the best known personally by Mr. Hoover, but outside of that he has won eminence as a university administrator. Charles Francis Adams of Massachusetts. Secretary of the Navy, comes from a historic family, having two Presidents of the United States among his ancestors. If he could restore to the Navy some of the early practices prevailing in the time of his great-great-grandfather, it might be better for its morale Arthur M. Hyde of Missouri, as secretary of Agriculture, Robert P. Lamont of Chicago, as secretary of Commerce, and James P. Davis, as secretary of Labor, complete the list of Mr. Hoover's official family. It will be observed that Pennsylvania is the only state that has two members in the cabinet. Mr. Mellon and Mr. Davis, both of whom were also with the preceding administration. Mr. Hoover seems to have gathered around him a group of experienced men of affairs, who may be counted upon to give the best of advice and cooperation in running the business of the nation. How far he may be disposed to accept that advice and allow that cooperation remains to be seen. In many respects the new President remains a mystery to the people who elected him to office. REPAIRING POLITICAL LOSSES REPAIRING POLITICAL DOSSES. In a somewhat pessimistic article in the New York World of last Sunday, Lester A. Walton emphasized the grave concern felt by the Negroes of this country over the measure or recognition that may be accorded them by the Hoover administration. The present state of uncertainty was contrasted with the conditions of years ago, when expectation of coming political plums was warranted and frequently became a reality. But, according to Mr. Walton, the new President's attitude on this question of political recognition remains a mystery. The situation is complicated by the prospect of a reorganization of the party in the South, to take advantage of the Democratic split, which gave four states to the Republican ticket. The losses of the race in the way of political office were summarized in the statement, that when Mr. Taft became President there were at least six Negroes holding consular offices, besides two diplomatic representatives, the ministers to Haiti and Liberia. Today there are only three consuls and the minister to Liberia, the minister to Haiti having been replaced by a white man under the Wilson administration. At Washington Negroes filled such positions as Register of the Treasury, Recorder of Deeds, Assistant Attorney General, an Auditor of the Treasury, Collector of Customs at Georgetown, assistant United States Attorney. All these offices have been lost except the recorder of deeds and a municipal judge. In a letter from the World's bureau at Washington, in the same issue, appeared a statement by Robert R. Church of Memphis, which did not take such a despondent view of the situation. Mr. Church denied that President Hoover would approve any part of the lilywhite movement, especially in its attempt to eliminate the Negro in the South from the Republican party. It was said that Mr. Church was in a position to speak advisedly on this subject, as he had been welcomed in the Hoover home during the campaign, at a time when Col. Mann who has charge of the lilywhite movement, did not think it advisable to appear there. Mr. Church was quoted as predicting that Mr. Hoover will prove a disappointment to both those colored Republicans who fear that his silence gives consent to their persecutors and the close knit band who expect him to put colored people back into slavery. He added: "Mr. Hoover's personality, aided by Mr. Smith's unfortunate heritage, broke our gaped 'Solid South.' We can depend upon that personality breaking up the present combination of political treason." While we would prefer to believe that Mr. Church's sanguine anticipations may be realized, it is quite within the possibilities that the political changes impending in the South may bring about a new alignment of voting strength, which may displace temporarily at least the present political leadership of the race in that section. This has been demonstrated already in the case of the retirement of Committeeman Benjamin J. Davis in Georgia and the proceedings against Perry Howard in Mississippi. The leadership of Mr. Church in Tennessee has also been assailed, although he appears so far to have maintained his power and prestige against attacks. With the voting strength in the South almost wholly in the hands of the whites, in a re-alignment of forces the leadership in bound to be white. But it will not be long before such a division of the whites will force from one side or the other a demand for help from the blacks. This will bring about a situation more like that in Tennessee, where the votes of the Negroes are necessary to both parties, to which fact Mr. Church owes his power In the North the only way in which the Negroes can recoup the political losses of the race is by making and backing a leadership from their own ranks, an those districts where their numbers and political experience warrant it. If they continue to fratter away their strength by personal jealousies and fighting one another, they will continue to lose the small measure of political parronage that remains to them. They have the potential power to make their votes count for political recognition. But they can only exercise it by electing leaders who will truly represent their wishes. When this is accomplished there need be no great concern over the attitude of any Republican administration which needs the votes of the race to insure its continuance in office. The political losses sustained by the race since the Taft administration can be repaired by taking the proper measures. TRIUMVIRATES ARE UNLUCKY. History has proved, since the days of Pompey and Caesar, that any form of government under a triumvirate is doomed to defeat and disaster. The two Roman triumvirates were dissolved without achieving much under their three-headed government. The French nation tried a triumvirate after the Revolution, which only led to the usurpation of the entire governing power by Napoleon Bonaparte. Even when Tammany Hall tried a combination of three leaders to fill the place left by the retirement of Richard Croker, the experiment degenerated into a joke, by dubbing one of the trio, "Two Spot." So it was not entirely without precedent, that the so-called triumvirate that was formed to dispense Federal patronage for New York Republicans should encounter a snag The formation of this combination of the Republican State Chairman and Reg resentative William H. Hill, the original Hoover man in the delegation, to cooperate with National Committeeman Hiles, in recommending appointments to Federal office, was not hailed with any great enthusiasm by the last named leader. In fact, it was regarded as an encroachment upon the functions of the National Committeeman, who in the absence of any Senator of his own party, would have the say as to recommending appointments. Then the Republican Congressmen from New York, mostly from up-state, demanded a voice in the matter of Federal patronage, so the whole matter became somewhat involved. But the greatest jolt was handed the triumvirate and all others concerned in the nominations made to the Federal bench in New York by President Coolidge just before he retired. These included four additional judges for New York, Alfred E. Wheat for the Eastern district and John M. Woolsey, Lloyd P. Stryker and Francis G. Caffey, for the Southern district. Thereupon the New York delegation in Congress made a declaration of political independence and broke definitely with President Coolidge. It disregarded the triumvirate arrangement and appointed two Representatives to pass upon all patronage. It was announced that the judicial appointments would not be approved at that session of Congress. New York State has been unfortunate in its recent leadership, or rather in the lack of leadership among Republicans. This was plain to be seen in the unsuccessful efforts to block the nomination of Mr. Hoover before and during the last National Convention. These efforts came to naught in the end, and only succeeded in humiliating the New York Hoover supporters and nullifying the great influence that the state should have exerted in the convention. Triumvirates are unlucky. New York State deserves a leadership that will make the most of its influence in national affairs. WHAT NOVELISTS WRITE. An acute and discriminating literary critic, in reviewing a novel by a favorite American author, laid down the following dictum: "The novelist in our day rarely writes about normal cases, but seeks the abnormal, the striking and the new." Only a few, he said, recognize the drama, pathos and tragedy in the lives of the average human being. The same thing, we suppose, might be said of the playwright, judging from the abnormalities of human action that are presented on the modern stage. This is the reason why censorship and police interference are so frequently exercised against the sale of certain novels and the production of certain plays. While this seeking for the abnormal the striking and the new, is true of novel writers in general, with but few exceptions, it is especially marked among those who choose Negro themes for portrayal. This has been noted to in the novels and plays purporting to depict Negro life in Harlem. Some of these writers have invested the characters drawn with a bizarre and exotic aspect that is wholly foreign to the subject and to the locality. Others have indulged in the detailed description of crude depravity and orgistic performances that should have no place outside of a police court action for disorderly conduct. Some of the plays are as bad as the novels, except for the fact that fear of police interference causes the management to tone down the exhibition of animalistic orgies. In the case of the latest of these plays, which seems to have won the favor of most of the dramatic reviewers as a picture of the Negro as the public wants to have him look, one of the critics sought to justify the rough spots of the performance by terming it merely a case of realism. Burns Mantle, in the Daily News, quoted a letter sent forth by the authors of "Harlem" in defense of their production as follows: "Harlem isn't as well covered by the newspapers, runs the letter, and many gang killings take place and many a rebellious young girl called Cedric Williams is killed in them without downtowns knowing the slightest thing about it. The police, too, don't bother much because a 'dead nigger' isn't very important."

The police, too, don't bother much because a 'dead nigger' isn't very important." As for the dancing orgy known as a "rent party," the authors are again pleased to defend themselves on the ground that, although the animalistic exhibitions of their actors may seem to be their only thing they are nothing to what might have happened. "All we can say here," they say here, "is that the party on the stage of the Apollo is a tame affair compared to the average Harlem rent party. In fact Mr. Erskine, the stage director, had to warn the players continually not become too realistic, and their habitual naked was and is dis a rent party or not." Mr. Erskine is obliged to answer that it is, in fact, a rent party, but that unfortunately there are likely to be those in the audiences who are a bit sensitive about learning the "All we can say here," they say here, "is that the party on the stage of the Apollo is a tame affair compared to the average Harlem rent party.

Because such abnormal phases of human existence as are portrayed in this play and in the novella dealing with Harlem can be pointed out as really existent, does not justify their use either on the stage or within the pages of a novel. The age of realism in fiction was supposed to have, passed out with the end of the Rougon-Macquart family as recorded by Emile Zola. In his works he sought to demonstrate a scientific theory as to the transmission of certain traits by heredity. That done, he dropped the realistic portrayal of vice and depravity for healthier themes. But the novelists and playwrights of today portray vice and crime without even Zola's excuse for the study. It may be in response to a public demand THE AGE READERS' FORUM Under Life Sentence, Chas.

The young ruler, who by the sharpness of his sword, undominated courage, freed Afghanistan from British overloydship and raised his country to the position of a sovereign State only a decade ago, has been compelled to leave the throne. A greater tragedy could have hardly inherited in the history of Moghanistan. The need of a trained army, fully modern arms, was His abdication, and the one at this critical moment as a variable boilt It was reported that with pro-Bushism as cended the throne, a mailing this month abducted and returned The wily Mullas (the religious heads of the Islamic cult), who fanned the fanaticism of the Alqam tribes living close to the Durand line and instigated them to ruse in rebellion against the authority of King Amanuallah have done the greatest work in establishing the glory of Islam. Kemal Pasha in Turkey, Razza Khan Pehlu in Persia, and Amanuallah in Afghanistan, were evidently working towards a common end, namely the establishment of the glor of Islam. The social and socio-religious reforms introduced by the King were meant by the imbuing of Islam to serve their own nefarious ends. How far foreign intigues and foreign gold, especially of Great Britain and France, hastened the tragedy enacted in Afghanistan, we shall leave to impartial historians to explore and throw light on. The magnitude of the crime committed by the rebellious Alqam in bringing about the downfall of the man, who, more than a century ago, had her people respected throughout the civilized world, can hardly be over-estimated. His zeal for the material progress of his country was no less keen. He realized that what Argentinian needed most was improvement in transport facilities. He conceived the idea of bringing the French of his country with a network of railways and give her all other advantages of modern science. French, Germans and Italians (mark hardly a British has been called) were recruited by him and with this payoff he was able to expand country scientifically. He was fully aware of political developments demanding watchful care and proactive for such a pabulum, but, the result is in most cases demoralizing. Probably this evil will bring about its own cure by finally sickening the public that whets its appetite for the abnormal by gloating over obscene literature and salacious plays. But in the meantime considerable harm is done to sections like Harlem where the abnormal is pictured as the average, and rent parties are supposed to be as frequent as the visits of the collector.

The need or evolving a well-trained army, fully equipped with modern arms, was not lost sight of. His abdication, and that an enforced one at this critical juncture, comes as a variable bolt from the blue. It was reported that his brother, with pro-Broth's sympathy has ascended the throne, and at the time of mailing this information, word has been received, that he, too, has abdicated and returned to Kundhar, the capital of Karnataka and Clanam). Kemal Shahela declared last year at Angola, "the sun that has recently begun to shine on the horizon on this part of the world, is the sun on which the future fortunes of those nations that have suffered for centuries depends. Hardly a year after his abdication, they were altered. Now the sun has ceased to be a source of inspiration and hope to Asia and its exploited people. "Twere within the last century therulers of Afghanistan had lost their thrones, because they looked to the Oruz, and not to the Indus, declaration of a monstrous ex-satrap of the Punjab. Here it confirms the writer's argument at the outset that British gold and nitriles have some hands in this nefarious business. The cat is in the house." "The future policy of Afghanistan and its king is of very great importance to India and the Empire (British), if he can mountain the integrity of his territory on the Oruz, and be tree from the "Indicent" country with great interest and with their own." It remains to be seen how tar the King that will occupy the throne of Afghanistan satisfies this ideal (if it could be so sad) of Lieut General Sir George MacMunn. The hand of progress in Afghanistan has been set back, "the old-fashioned Islamic influence" may be, for the time being, on the quinze against all that on the ground already, but that 20 certainly minimizes the charge of new elements being introduced in Afghan politics, threatening the outbreak on a fresh war beyond Indian terrain. COMMENTS BY THE AGE EDITORS ON THE SAYINGS OF OTHER EDITORS The Baltimore Afro-American felt called upon to "Salute a Friend," in the person of Senator William Cabell Bruce, whose term expired March 4. It said: There are those who think Mr. Bruce will be remembered for his advocacy of the repeal of the Wei-stead law, in which there are others, Reed, (Dem. Mo), for example, who are even more impleable foes of the 18th Amendment. Mr. Bruce will be longest remembered as a champion of those who have made their own in the Senate Chamber. Mr. Blease wrigled out "Yes, they have been put on ENGINEES IN COTTON MILLS." And so we lose a friend in the Senate. His Bruce retires to provide life. His Bruce there added lustre to the name of Maryland champion of individual liberty was he; champion of humanity We salute a friend. That is a deserved tribute to an exceptional Democratic statesman, who did not lack courage to express his convictions. In seeking to fix the responsibility for the laxity in church attendance and the little interest manifested in religious services, the Damville, Ky. Torch Light blazed forth as follows. The present day custom is or the parents to take their children to the picture show, leave them at home on prayer meeting nights, and send them to the Sunday School. What conclusion must the child reated under these conditions form? It is but the church services will consider the church services are of little importance. The thing needed among the people is the habit of the whole family attending the church worship. Every member of the family should go to the Sunday School and the whole Sunday services. And then parents should spirit the church program. The mother and father who sit in the home and criticize everything which goes on in the church services, will kill all the love the child ever had for the church work. Thousands of children are damned for ever because their parents sit at home and read books in the church should have been in the Sunday School and the prayer meeting. The children of the day are about as the older people are That is a pretty scathing condemnation of modern tendencies. But the preachers must do more than denounce they must make their services draw the people to the church.

Especially within recent years do followers of Catholicism know what it means to be the victim of our own attacks and wrought institutions only as a part of their religious belief. The national election brought forth bold denunciations of this faith, more so than ever before. It might also be said here that this condition attracts the most of our national clients who voted for Gov. Smith, a test against a spirit of untolerance. We were not for the aid and sympathy of the big hearted liberty-loving and square-dealing element of the dominant race our condition in this country would be worse than hopeless. Such manifestations of a friendly interest are to be accepted as a genuine expression of true Christianity. The following confession by a religious editor appeared in a recent issue of the *Star of Lion*, the official organ of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church. We read the comics. Some of them are silly, inane, insisted. Some are amusing, entertaining, suggestive, instructive. I learn from some of them that men deliberately create an ugly situation, and then with an air of virtue and unconscious piety deplore its existence Jesus said, something about these people. We also learn that many individuals helpless, innocent victims of circumstances.

But the poor man hounded, driven to despair by maltreatment, and the invasion of the highest human rights to death, to punishment as death. Bishop Fiske pertinently asks in the February Harpers, "Is America a Christian country?" While much of American humor is based on brutality and sharp practice, we did not think there was so much exaltation of evil in the comic pages as the religious editor has discovered. Pointing to the career of Dr. Ernest E. Just as an example of genius surmounting every challenge, the Boston Chronicle said Mr Just is a Ph D, and accidentally a Negro. He is he easily one of the three greatest biologists in America, over twenty years he was employed to teach elementary zoology. He researches in marine biology have atracted the attention of men or ascience all over the world. Now he is a professor of zoology, and of course that of Mr Just were a white man and not a Negro he would be where he (equally) obviously belongs—in the laboratories of Harvard, Yale, or Princeton, in college or in graduate students. He would not be at Howe and University. Nor would scholars like Alain Locke, St. Elmo Bragg William Hanbamberg and Charles Haleley, Howard professors of It should be cause for wonder and reflection to America, that despite the multifarious obstacles and barriers she erects against her colored subjects she accepts as an equal adversary. Imagine Mr. Just as any even assistant-p professor or biology at Harvard, which has such great talents for laboratory experiments; in that capacity he would not have been able to conduct his independent researches, imagine Mr. Just in that position, relatively low as it is on the Harvard faculty, and you will also imagine him as the leading scientist in the world. In the meantime Howard University should be congratulated having the benefit of Dr. Reiner's services as one of its instructors. Referring to the Rev. Reiner, which aroused so much attention a few months ago, the Palmieri University of Columbia answered queries as to its present state follows. The case was argued on appeal to the Supreme Court, November 14th last. Since then it has been under adjudication by that court.

Was or not the pardon legally revoked, is the question that must be decided by the Supreme Court, the answer of which means liberty or imprisonment. The pardon was based on the al- davit of the complaining witness against Bess, a white woman who confessed that the charge made against him was false. This con- fession was later contradicted, although the officer before whom the withe appeared resigned that the signed it knowing its contents. A very pecu- inary detail. CHURCH AND RELIGIOUS ACTIVITIES Grace Church of Harlem Sunday was Communion Sunday at Grace Church and a large congregation was present to hear the pastor, Dr. Garner, preach a special communion sermon.

St. Martin's Chapel All animate and sometimes, even manmade objects live by communion" declared Rev John H Johnson, sermon has Sunday at St Martin's Lane, 1200 Lenox avenue. The sermon was drawn from the text as found in the 14th verse of the 6th chapter of 20th Corinthians "What communion hath light with darkness?" One of the most striking examples of communion is that communion continued Rev Johnson's that communion called modern civilization. Knowledge has been gathered, tested and that which has been accepted is known as modern civilization—direct result of sharing, interchange between the human heart depicts needs communion so since, in answer to the question as asked in the text, there can be no communion between light and darkness, man must disguise between the two in his own flesh, drag himself up out of the truck and mute of darkness. There are three things with which we, as humans can communicate. First there is the communion of God with us, and second there is a great love which we have for our birthplace. The very earth seems to enter our homes, the influence is felt in our lives. In spite of our hard treatment unjust prejudice and social injustice we who were born in the same city have dulled love for it. Carry, we back to old Virgin, never fails to awaken a sympathetic cord. We can easily betrayed because Judah was aware of His great love to Otho and of His custom to go to the garden to commune with Him. Secondly there is the communion with our fellows which includes communion of mind, of taste, and of spirit. The communion in which we are one of mind is the duty of all our fellows to fellowship with each other as labors as business and as pro-social men. The communion of tastes includes our private lives the selection of our friends. The answer What do we like influences our personality and shapes our character. And lastly the communion of the spirit is our religious lives—the communion of brotherhood. Thirdly, there is the communion with our fellows for communion and gives us Jesus and communion gives us strength and joy. In conclusion, the minister admonished us to practice humanity remembring that before God we stand as equal. And that in coming to the Communion God will give us more knowledge of that broader communion. The confirmation class of 1929 celebrated its corporate communion. Sunday morning at 8 o'clock the new communicals greeted Mrs. W. G. Winters of Mrs. C. A. Erine Johnson is president, at breakfast, immediately following the communal service.

Church, will be the speaker at the morning service Sunday, March 10. Mt. Olivet Baptist Church On Sunday morning, March 3, Rev W P Hayes, pastor of Mt. Olivet Baptist Church, took his text from I Corinthians 13:13. "And now abideth faith, hope, charity, these three faiths, the greatest of these is Charity." Subject, "Lifa's Permanent Value." Some of the outstanding things he spoke of are that Paul was at his best when he wrote this chapter; that progress of humanity is due to the inquisitive mind of man, who is the greatest of all human beings. He spoke of the way man first realized the power of steam and different other forces. The discovery of the uses of electricity, steam for navigation, etc., indicate the growth of the intellect. That people are deserving of education. That people live; the principal psychology of life is to be a "Go-Getter." The practices of unscrupulous lawyers, judges, and others in office, for selfish gains. While it is essential to have success, it is more essential to practice what hongible and just. Poverty is inconvenient but it is not disgraceful. The ultra-modernists believe only that they can see, but they should be able to understand further, for Life itself is not seen, but it is very evident it was faith in God that caused Abraham to go into another journey moving the sword, but in absence to the command. The two Bible classes held their sessions at the usual time. It was decided that they will hold joint meetings four times a year beginning with April 7. The text for the evening service was chosen from Acts 17 11. These were more noble than those in Thessalonica, in that they received the sword with a readiness to searect the scriptures daily, whether those things were so. The pastor referred to the fact that the Jewish people in Thessalonica had not closed their minds on a few prejudiced opinions, but were going to be taught daily by the teachers of these teachings were so. He spoke of how impossible it is to stop the deaf truth. He reminded us that the world of food has nothing to fear from honest investigation. He also spoke of those who take parts of sculpture out of their original set of sculptures to create ideas of their own. This is the origin of cult sets and denominations. It was announced that beginning with the third Sunday March 17 there will be a two-week's revival of the church, jointly with Little Mr. Zrch Church. Sixteen people joined the church during the day, and $427 was collected.

Church There were few vacant seats at the morning service on March 3 when the past Rev. Ward I Ward, the pastor of the Christian Growth. This was intended a splendid service, connecting directly with the sermon of last Sunday morning upon The Funeral of Christian Religion. Rev. Nicholas to be personally gifted art of making his sermons extremely practical. This effect is being evidenced throughout the church. It is a great and a help to hear him. THE material contrast between the structures with which (Booker, T. Washington) began and the present great, ample and commodious structures of the United States is but a imperfect measure of Dr. Washington's work and achievement. The educator measures Dr. Washington's work and achievement. The educator women for lives useful to themselves and their families is of course a most important measure of Dr. Washington's work and achievement and sought to do. His purpose was to mediate from a center like Tuskeguee the light of the homely but ever living truths which must the basis of Chief Justice United States Supreme Court. Founded by BOOKER T.

The classes are still growing and it is hard to tell which one will have the best report for attendance at the close of the first quarter, when which time buttons will be awarded. At 4:30, the Missionary Society met and all had a spiritual feast. Rev. J. Collins was the speaker at the evening service. He used as his subject, "If a Man Die Shall He Live Again?" under direction of Herbert A. Allen, furnished appropriate music all day. The solisists were Mrs. R. Carpenter, Mrs. E. Gudden and Miss Helen Dowdy. Communion was served at both services to a large number and the collection for the day was fine. Next Sunday, March 10, the pastor will preach at the morning service. The Emanuel Forum will meet at 4:30 in connection with a special Wilberforce University meeting. The speakers will be Robert Bargall, director of branches of the National Association or the Advancement of People, and Gilbert H. Jones, president of Wilberforce University. At the evening service the Rt. Rev. Rev. Jones, bishop of the First Episcopal Op Jones is an eloquent speaker and any one who misses this sermon will miss a rare treat. The op Jones are always welcome at Ennuelw Williams Institutional C. M. E. Church A large crowd greeted Dr. Bryson on Sunday morning when he appeared in the pulpit to preach for the first time in four week. He preached an instructive and touching service that was well received our very souls. He looked much rested-His period of illness has proved for him a physical blessing. It was announced at the morning service that he would give the communion in the evening, and this brought the university crowd.

E. Church Bishop Joshua H Jones, presiding over the First Episcopal District, paid his first episcopal whit to the church since his appointment to preach at the General Conference. In his preliminary remarks the good bishop stated that the lateness of his visit was due to the fact that there were other bishops in the district who work that needed his attention, and Bridge Street being so well organized and having a pastor that could handle the situation was the reason for his visit. The reason to thank the pastor, Dr. Edward Ernest Tyler, and the officers and members for their working together and aiding his program for education and building up the apurpure and material phases of the work. The bishop delivered a powerful sermon. He took for his text St. Paul's "Cost of Being a Disciple of Christ" "Cost of Being a Disciple of Christ" Some of the salient points in the sermon were. Whatever we get in the material or spiritual life we must pay the cost we sow to the wind and keep the sow to the wind so to goodness we will reap our true. While we may work and obtain much of the material things of this in the real analysis is not after spiritual things and being THE Christlike. 7 The churches are full of people, but are not full of Christians for many are not willing to pay the cost, which takes up up to 10 per cent. The church of Jesus as temptations, trials, being subjected, and other forms of veneration, and not being able to have our sins at all times are things that test our Christianity. The bishop closed with a word picture of Christ's dying upon the cross for us. Eight persons joined the church when the invitation was extended. At the evening hour a song was led by Sisters Gant and Fraser. This was followed by a short sermon by the pastor. He based remarks in the 1st Psalm. He stresses the Christian that does not walk in the counsel of the ungodly, nor stand in the way of sinners, nor sit in the seat of the scornful; but delights in the law of the Lord which is the liberty, and modifies the communal God and night. This Christian shall be like a tree planted by the waters. Dr. Tyler realistically described the unhappiness of the ungodly with the happiness of the godly. The ungodly are away from the God, and night away, for the Lord knows the way of the righteous; but the way of the ungodly shall perish. The funeral of Senior Steward HC Wadkins was held in the afternoon of the morning, morning, morning, and evening, and a series of meetings of the mid-year conference was held. Next Sunday evening the annual thanksgiving sermon of the Bridge Street Relief Society will be delivered by Mr. M. McKinley, there will be a reception of the new members of the society. This will be followed by a fellowship social. Siloam Presbyterian Church The Sacrament of the Lord's Supper was administered at the morning hour of worship at Silicon Valley Dr. George Shippen Stark, pastor of the church at this morning worship was found in John 13:37-38. Speaking of the day as being the day of self-reliance he emphasized the fact that self-reliance in religion is disastrous. One must have good faith in God and a strong religion. Emotion is life, is love, is the nerve spring of the soul. Joy goes out of the human heart and life, because love is dead. Religion is life, and must keep our earthly alive. More love is needed, more cathismia The Bible school met in session after the close of the morning worship. A program was presented by the pupils of the intermediate class of girls and the intermediate class of boys, and the five things which a girl owes to her God, her church and her parents.

SPORTING BLOOD With Sandy Burns Next HAPPENINGS IN THE REALM OF MUSIC (By LUCIEN H. WHITE) Through some peculiar mental idiosyncrasy, in the account of the Lydia Mason-Andrades Lindsay 2-piano recital at the Elks Auditorium on February 24, published in last week's issue of the Age, this reviewer credited Dr. R. Nathaniel Dett's "Juba Dance" as from the "Magnolia Suite," when it should have been as from the "In the Bottoms Suite." And this was done notwithstanding that a list of Dr. Dett's compositions was before the writer's eyes at the time. Perhaps the mental thought, associating the odorous magnolia with the South's bottom lands, had something to do with the slip. However, apologies are herewith extended Dr. Dett and the two pianists. LORENZA JORDAN COLE, YOUNG PIANIST FROM SEATTLE, WASH., WINS FAVOR IN NEW YORK DEBUT AT THE CIVIC CLUB Orenza Jordan Cole, a young miss from Seattle, Wash., is studying the pianoforte, and on Sunday afternoon, March 3, at 5 o'clock, she is presented by Miss Mary White Ovington in a piano recital in the parlor of the Civic Club at 18 East 10th street. The rooms were crowded with interested friends who had been invited by Miss Ovington, and the playing of Miss Cole was ample reward for the effort made in being present. Miss Cole's family moved from Los Angeles to Seattle, Wash., when she was a small child, but the young girl studied the piano for seven years in San Francisco. During this period she was heard to play by Margaret Melville Lszzniewska, head of the Conservatory of Music at Cincinnati, who was so impressed at the ability exhibited by the young colored girl, that she tendered Lorenza a scholarship at that conservatory. Miss Cole studied for three years under the direct tutelage of Mme Lszzniewska. Miss Ovington, who is chairman of the board of directors of the N A V C P, New York City, was in Seattle on a trip in interest of that organization and heard the young artist play. Stirred by the excellence of attainment which had been reached by the girl, Miss Ovington became interested and determined to aid her artistic development as far as possible. To that end, Miss Owington made it possible for Miss Cole to visit New York to continue her studies on the pianoforte as a student at the Institute of Musical Art of the Juilliard Musical Foundation which she entered the past fall, at opening of the school season. The recital at the Civic Club on Sunday marked her debut in New York City, and the marked success attained amply justifies the interest which has been exhibited by her present patron, Miss Owington, and by those who have contributed in the past toward fitting her for a musical career. For this initial appearance Miss Cole offered a program of varied works. She opened with a Pastorale by Scarlatt, and a Toccata by Paradise. Unfortunately, due to pressure of other appointments and a miscalculation as to time needed to make the trip from Washington Highland to East 10th street, this reviewer missed these two numbers, and all but the final strains of the allegro assai movement of the Fethoven Sonata, opus 57 (appassionata) which was her second offering, only the andante con moto, and the allegro ma non The smooth flowing andante movement was played with meticulous restraint and with a clarity of utterance that made it of crystalline clarity. Then came the allegro-presto, with its tumultuous outpour of passionate declaiming, and this was given with a power and fire that was surprising. In fact, it might be in place to say right here that this young woman has an apparent store of hidden fire that only with in flame and heat under the impulse of her musical emotion certain she is so cool, calm and self-contained as to give their evidence of the sleeping temperamental volcano. The third group was composed of two Brahms' compositions, Incomer and Ballade, No. 118, and two Chopin numbers, Berecuse, Opus 17, and Fantasy in F Minor, Coleridge-Taylor's transcription of "Deep River" and Nathaniel Dett's "Juba Dance" from "In the Suite, to which was added, by insistence of the audience, a Poorish Folk Song (Spinning Song) by Melter. The versatility of Miss Cole's pianistic ability was shown by the manner in which she fitted her interpretation to widely varying moods of the composers. The rugged construction of the Brahms was in direct comparison with Chopin in his most romantic imaginings, and the rhythmic racial expressions of Coleridge-Taylor and Dett, for the Negro and of Melcer for the Poles, were given as if emissions from the player's own soul. It was a noteworthy exhibition or pianotore playing, and marks $ \mathcal{N} $ toole as a worthy candidate for hearing under larger and more public conditions. UTICA SINGERS AND DAVIS SISTERS IN CONCERT AT NEW ROCHELLE HIGH SCHOOL BEFORE LARGE ASSEMBLAGE withstanding the inclement weather with which February bled its exit from the stage of 1929, the spacious auditorium of the Central Junior High School, North avenue, near Winthrop, in New Hampshire, N.Y., was filled almost to capacity on Thursday night, February 28, with a group of avid music lovers who were out to hear the Ulla Jubilee Singers in a recital of Spirituals and Negro folk songs, assisted by the Davis sisters—Ella Belle, soprano, and Marte P. daughters of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel J. Davis, popular and well known New Rochelle. Because of a heavy cold contracted by Glatence Ratchite on a trip to Vermona during the first half of the week, the Utica group was reduced to the proportions of a quartet, instead of the usual quintet, those appearing being Marshall Cole, second tenor and lead; Benjamin Merrill, George Whittington and William Culver. The Singers have won quite some fame musically through their appearances on the air over the National Broadcasting Co. station WLZ, through making of records for phonograph companies, and through concerts in dives places. To this reviewer, who was hearing them for the first time in formal concert, their popularity is understandable. Without any particular being of outstanding quality, there is a blending of tone quality and an understanding interpretation that brings enjoyment to the hearer. Just what addition Mr. Ratcliffe is to the group I cannot say, but it is that the four singers appearing in this recital gave a splendid performance. Without qualifying this opinion, which concerns the musical quality of their renditions, I must take exception to the tendency in several instances, to give to their interpretations an atmosphere of buffoony that is uncalled for, and as out of place as it is unnecessary. In instance, in singing "Little David," it was not necessary for Mr. Rose to simulate the flopping of buzzard wings, nor of the first tenor tape a dice shooter. As to the latter, it is a distinct perversion, for the Negro Spirituals were created, in the traval and bitterness attendant upon slavers, there were no dice shooters. In this same criticism might be made of other renditions, yet no rigorously, but there was the same tendenza exhibited in singing of "You better mind" and "Hand me down that silver umbrella, Gabriel." Aside from that, their singing afforded keen enjoyment, and to the large majority of those present, perhaps the comedy element was so enjoyable as any other. Miss Ella Belle Davis, soprano, appeared in three numbers, that being a group of "old" songs, Italian, English, Irish and American, the composers represented were Bruno Huhn, Roger Quilter, Freed Keele and Francis Hopkins, respectively, but no request something of imagination to put down Quilter, a contemporary English composer, and Weatherly as composers of "old" songs in the sense usually applied to the classics. The Hopkinson song, by the way, "My days have been so wondrous free," was programed as the "First song ever written in America by an American," composed in 1759, the composer a signer of the Declaration of Independence. Miss Davas is a singer who started her career at an early age, but though she has been frequently heard, is yet a young artist, practically on the threshold of her career. On this occasion, she displayed a vocal organ that has ripened and matured to a marked extent within the past twelvemonth. She is now studying with H. Wellington Smith, who conducts vocal studios at 282 West End avenue, New York, and in Boston, and who, it is said, is a former Metropolitan Opera Co. singer. She sang a variety of numbers, ranging from coloratura aria to simple ballad, and was eminently pleasing. Her operatic number, "Caro nome" from Verdi's "Rigolotelo," discovered a thinness in her upper tones that will probably disappear with further development. They sounded a bit scent, and were brought forth with some slight effort, but in the middle and lower registers there is a new warmth and resonance which has not heretofore been in evidence. This was evidenced effectively when she followed the aria with Massenet's beautiful "Elegie" as an encore, and this was one of the best things of the evening. Another offering that showed her middle and lower tones to great advantage was the Weatherly song, "Danny Boy," (Irish) and the popular "Cuckoo" song, an added number after her final group. One of the most interesting and effective numbers of the evening was a song by Richard Kountze, "The Sieigh," after the Russian style and it was given with vivacity an dramatic intensity. In the purely dramatic and lyric numbers, the singer's high notes lost their whiteness and became more nearly akin to her other registers. The program opened with "Lungi dal caro bene" (Italian) by Huhn; "Over the mountains" (English) by Quilter, and the two Irish and American songs already noted. The final group was composed of "Welcome, Sweet Wind," by Cadman, the Kountze song and "An Open Secret" by Woodman. Miss Marie P. Davis, pianist, not only gave a fine and competent performance in playing all of the accompaniments for her sister, but she displayed pianistic ability of a high order when she appeared as soloist, playing two Schubert numbers, the Impromptu, opus 142. No 3, and the March Mithaire The Impromptu, which is based on a singularly beautiful theme of just a few measures, and which the great Franz Peter, a melody master, elaborated through a half dozen variations into a composition of large proportions, was delightfully and enjoyably done, the pianist exhibiting digital dexterity and a sympathetic mood. The march was also splendidly performed, its massive and impressive chords drawing upon the player's strength of technique, as well as her musical comprehension. Samuel J. Davis successfully promoted the altair, and the bevy of charming and beautifully gowned girls who served as ushers were the Misses Mary Brodie, Elise and Julia Brown, Addie Davis, Mildred Eccles, Beatrice Goode, Ruby Harry, Inez Hatcher, Annie Keye, Theola Samuels, Marjorie Shelton, Vivian Shurland, Catherine Taylor, Cora Thomas and Amy Thompson JUSTIN SANDRIDGE, BOSTON PIANIST WINS FAVOR IN FIRST N. Y. CONCERT JUSTIN SANDRIDGE, BOSTON PIANIST WINS FAVOR IN FIRST N. Y. CONCERT Justin Sandridge, a young pianist from Boston, made his New York debut on Friday evening, March 1, in the auditorium of the West 137th street Y. W. C. A. before an audience made up largely of the musical cognoscence of the metropolis, and notwithstanding the fact that this auditorium is somewhat inadequate for use as a concert hall, Mr. Sandridge made a most favorable impression. This is his third season as a concert artist, and he came to New York heralded as a pianist of the first rank. During his first season he was given the unusual honor of being selected as soloist with the Boston Philharmonic Orchestra, an organization of one hundred musicians, and he played before an audience of 8,000 winning instudied praise from all of the Boston music reviewers. His playing on Friday here in New York proved that he deserved all that had been said of him. Notwithstanding the handicap of playing from a platform that placed him in intimate contact with his audience, Mr. Sandridge played with facile ease a program that was more than ordinarily taxing. Unfortunately, the hour of beginning was not stated on the tickets, and most of the folks took it for granted that the concert would begin at 8:30, whereas a matter of fact it was scheduled for 8:15. At that hour, the number of folks present was so small that the pianist was asked to delay the opening number for a few minutes, which he did, starting at 8:22. Even then the audience was rather slim, many of the people not arriving until after the second number. Mr Sandridge is a pianist of attainment, with unusual technical dexterity, threading his way through the most intricate and riksome passages with an ability that makes them seem simple. He has a client style, playing with smooth facility, but giving to his interpretations always the undercurrent of temperament necessary to a vital understanding. It is to be hoped that when he again favors New York with an opportunity to hear him play that he will be heard in a larger hall, one better arranged acoustically. His program included the Brahms Khopsodie, the Schumann Sonate III (presto, andantino, scherzo, rondo), Fude and Funfelaffle, by Liszt, Ballade and Two Frudes by Chopin, Gavotte by Prokofiev, "The Fountain of the Aqua Paula" by Charles Grutts, and Polka de He was presented under auspices of the John Brown Memorial Association, Rev Wm Lloyd Imes, president, and the Music Department of the W (A, A, Miss Sonoma Talley, director ROLAND HAYES TO DONATE BOX SEAT SALE FOR APRIL CONCERT TO Y. M. C. A. When Roland Hayes sings in New York on Sunday evening, April 21, his third and final recital for the current musical season, it is possible that he will be making a personal contribution of more than $2,000 towards the work now being done by Max Yergan, Y M C A secretary at Fort Hare, Cap. Province, South Africa. Through his manager, Dr Win H Brenner of the Boston Symphony, Mr. Hayes has notified Dr Channing H Tobias, senior secretary, national Y M C A, work among colored men, that all of the proceeds from sale of box seats and boxes will be given to the $47,000 fund needed for the erection of an association building to be used as a training center for the natives, towards which John D. Rockefeller Jr. has made a conditional gift of $25,000. There are 65 boxes, of which 63, possibly 64, will be placed at the disposal of the Y. M C A officials. In the second tier are 32 boxes, each seating 8 persons, and these are to be sold at $3 a seat, or $24 for the box; the receipts from these will total $708. Thirty-one of the 33 boxes in the first tier, 8 seats to the box, will be disposed of at $5 for each seat, or $40 for the box, these to be known as patrons' boxes.

It is possible that one of the two remaining boxes will be available, and if so, this will increase the possible grand total to $2,048. And this total may be increased by some of the patrons paying higher prices for boxes because of the cause for which the money is to be used. Mr. Rockefeller's offer of $25,000 stipulates the raising of the additional amount needed by the association. Dr. Tobias states that $9,000 has already been given by friends, leaving $13,000 yet to be raised. Mr. Yergan has been working in South Africa, driving in his Ford from tribe to tribe to establish the Y. M. C. A. among the natives of South Africa. The need for a training center is urgent, and a recent cable from him informed the National Board that he is ready now to let the contract, depending solely on the amount of money available. Mr. Hayes has always been interested in Africa, and planned, when he first went abroad, to continue his trip into that country. Circumstances prevented that, and now he is showing his concrete interest by making this substantial contribution. Dr. Tobias states that only the box seat sale will benefit the association, as all of the rest of the house—parquet, dress circles and balconies, will be controlled by the Roland Hayes Management. Seats are on sale at the Y. M and Y. W. C. A.'s, Carnegie Hall, and the National Y. M. C. A. office of Dr Tobias, 347 Madison avenue PRINCESS JACQUES de BROGLIE FROM FRANCE IS GUEST OF HONOR AT HOME OF WATT TERRYS. AND PLAYS PIANO Several store music lovers assembled at the spacious and beautifully appointed home of Mr. and Mrs. Watt Terry, 290 Convent avenue, on Sunday evening, March 3, to meet a distinguished French artist of the pianoforte, Marie Antoinette Aussenac, the Princess Jacques de Broglie, and to hear her play three groups of compositions for that instrument. The Princess de Broglie, while in New York, has given several piano recitals, and has aroused the intensest interest through her demonstrations of an instrument for the drawing of music from the air. The musicale was arranged by Mrs. Etnah Rochon Boutte, and the hostesses were Mrs. Terry, Mrs. Boutie, Mrs. Edward Matthews and Mrs. Southerland Maxwell. The numbers offered by Princess de Broglie showed the unusual technical attainment of the artist, exhibited her breadth of conception, and brought forth evidence of a most colorful temperament. There was also in evidence a prodigal giving of herself by the artist, a complete and utter devotion to her art. She exhibited a prodigious technique, rare digital dexterity, particularly in the Liszt and Saint-Saens' numbers. To the Chopin group she brought a limpid, honeyed tone, but it had no quality of the saccharine. Cyril Scott was represented in his "Danse Negre," and in this there was a wild and characteristic abandonment. And this technique assumed mammoth proportions in two numbers for the left hand alone, the single five fingers running the gamut of the keyboard with accuracy and authority not always attained by the two-handed player. Her program included a Nocturne and Ballade by Chopin; Ree d'amour and Campanella by Liszt, Danse Negre by Scott, Nocturne by Scriabine and Bourrée by Saint-Saens. Added enjoyment was afforded the audience by the singing of Mrs. Charlotte Wallace Murray, mezzo soprano, whose cultured and finished art is always a delight and joy. With Mrs Beatrice Lewis at the piano, Mrs. Murray - first number was Cesar Franck - "Le-Procession," sung with conjuncte taupe and iron artistry. Following the second piano group, Mrs. Murray, playing her own accompaniment, sang in English the "Madame Butterfly" aria, "Some day hell come" ("Un bel di verdemo"), an exuding the finances of her attainment. After the final piano group, by the special request of Mr. Ferry, Mrs. Murray and Burleigh's arrangement of "Nobody knows de trouble Liser, and then, in Princess de Broghe's asking, she gave the same compo- cr "Deep River, but with a slight variation on the ending that dissected the deep richness of her thrilling lower tones. She again played her own accompaniments. At conclusion of the music program Princes de Broghe was pre- sented to the individual guests by Mrs. Boutte, after which a buffet supper was served, consisting of chicken salad, rolls, French ice cream in molded forms, French pasties and demi-se. The caterer was Louis Sherry of Park avenue. Those present were Dr. and Mrs. Walter P. Turnp, Mrs. Blanche Stone, Dr. and Mrs. U. C. Vincent, Mr. and Mrs. Wint Dickens, Miss Althea M. Rochon Mr. and Mrs. Rosseau Bruce, Rev and Mrs. Vernon Johns, Auguste Granville Dill, G Clement, Mr. and Mrs. Robert De- Frantz, Miss Jane Kennard, Mrs. Maude Ferry, Dr J D Jazmor, Mrs Anny Coadill, Mrs Georgia Lane, Mrs Leander Summs, Mr and cold his $54 entrance fee and one quarter's dues. At the hearing at Local 802, the nine musicians were lectured to be more careful in future and in view of Heath's application for membership, were not fined. Heath told the union that he was a transfer man from the Atlantic City local but his transfer had expired. His application was deferred and his local association with the local City local to inquire whether Heath is indebted to them. Any indebtedness will have to be paid before Heath can secure a membership card from the local. ACTIVITIES AMONG UNION MUSICIANS By PERCIVAL OUTRAM In spite of the many and various examples and instances in life which exemplify the fact that you cannot continue to any unlawful or unfair act without being caught and called to book yet we continue to find the yellow who figures he can go on forever immine and wait for the penalty of his punishment. Heath had been heard to say months back that he was offered the job as organist at a theatre in upper Harlem but had refused it. New musicians imagine they see the true reason for his refusal, as the organ job was in a theatre which also carried an orchestra and the bodybody Sorgengeti-at arms Munton would be always putting his nose in the theatre for cards. It is bad enough when only the one caught can be punished for his defection but when he, being exempt, involves others who unwittingly mix with him thinking him in the square, and are giving him work and helping him to earn his daily bread—it's a serious slap to friendship and the higher ideals of men who are mixing together daily in the pursuit of their business. I. Douglas, Theatre apparently is playing Boppee with its musicians. It is alleged that a short time ago the management installed some mechanical sound device. Had a hearing of it after the theatre was closed to the public on a Friday night, but the next morning it had disappeared. No notice so far has been tendered to the orchestra and nothing has been said about the device to the musicians. Local daily papers a month ago published the statement that the Douglas, or the M & S circuit, had been purchased by Fox Benton Heath, piano player and late organist, has been working in a theatre in East 125th street for a long time. The theatre having installed sound pictures, threw him out of work. Heath left the theatre about six months ago. Several bookers gave Heath work as pianist in "igogo" or single engagements at hotels of New York as one or ten musicians went down to Webster Hall to play for a date there. In walked a white elegant at-arms (not Minton) and called for cards. Then it was known that Heath had no card, to the complete surprise of the other musicians, who had often played with him before, and knowing his history had never thought of asking for his card.

The article continues that it is Messr. Whitney & Tutt's idea to prove that all Harlem is not made up of gun mills, "numbers" runners, bootleggers and gamblers, and that colored composers, musicians, actors and playwrights will be given an opportunity to show the finer side of live in Harlem. It is not within our province to ferret out who finances or operates the gun mills, etc. but we do wish Messr. W & T success in their enterprise and see no reason why, if operated in the right way, the Harlem Little Art Theatre should not click correctly and be a benefit to men of the race, instead of getting the crumbs to musicians, ushers, porters and men as they have been niggarly getting since Harlem has been Harlem.

The preparation for Easter is claiming the attention of the Supp. and teachers of the school. The 11 a.m. hour found a large congregation gathered at the church where pastor J. R. White delivered a letter of encouragement and dedications had its effect. The text being Isaiah 9.6, from the subject: "Hearts thrush of a wonderful Savior." Many favorable comments were heard of how the preacher told of Christ's ear to hear us. His eye to see his Hand to hold us and His home to receive us. The holy sacraments of the church are a very large number and among them were noted, several saints, from other cities.

Competitive divisions have started in the Society to increase membership and we predict larger membership. The closing service of the day found the pastor the speaker, and although a hard day had been spent in other services he spoke eloquently and seemed to interest us. We have earned attention.

To this day, the fast moving train, whether it is a freight or a passenger, it brings to me a wonderlust as it passes. I became conscious of my existence in a village in South Carolina, called Kingstree. Perhaps, it has expanded ere now to a town. I have heard that it has. But in my days there it was only a village, nesting amid pine, oak, maple and palmetto trees. My first recollections of railroad trains date back to those childhood days when I played around my father's blacksmith workshop. I can picture the old shop now, with its collection of broken wheels, bent axles, rusty plows, wagon bodies, carriage springs and my father, with perspiration oozing from every browny chest, annealing the red hot shoe to the size of the hood patiently waiting to be shod. I can recall the many signs on the evils of-credit which adorned its boarded walls. To my infantile mind this one always appeared awesome: "Poor Credit Is Dead; Bad Pay Killed Him." The shop was located near the tracks of the one railroad that passed through the village. Aside from the station whistle, fast freights and still faster passenger trains never slackened their speed in their mad race through the little community. Childlike, I often stood and wondered as they tore pass my playground, what made them in such a hurry. As I grew older, these things of speed began more and more to impress my imagination. The black man who waved to me as he walked atop of the swiftly moving cars, with all the nonchalance of a ground pedestrian, was my idea of a hero. That he was only a brakeman who had acquired the knack, and that this was only a part of his duty, were no part of my youthful knowledge. But though I thought the black brakeman a more superior man, I deeply envied the black man, who I could see through the vestibule train windows. In those days an all-Pullman train was called a "vestibule train" by the people of our village. The name was derived, no doubt, from the fact that in those times, Pullmans were the only cars having enclosed platforms. I remember once seeing one of these trains stop near my playground. A white-coated man alighted from one of the cars. That the man was from any place but New York never entered my little head; in fact, I was just old enough to think that none but one so cleanshaven, white-collared and white-liveried could hail from any other place. So, timidly I accosted him and inquired did he know my uncle "Pete" Hogans? The liveried person was quite nice about it. No, he didn't know my uncle "Pete", but he humored me by answering my various questions about trains. Several months later, my father received a telegram from another brother by the name of Andrew, who was also a porter, saying that his train, which ran between Jacksonville and New York, would make a stop at Kingstree on its way North, an unusual occurrence. When uncle Andrew's train arrived, my childish brain was so fired with the luxuriousness of the train that I declared there and then to father that nothing but a job like Uncle Andrew's would ever satisfy me. But this infatuation for trains wasn't because I had never ridden on any. As a matter of fact, my family did considerable traveling between our home and Charleston, Florence, Orangeburg, and other places in the state. It was always a case of rejoicing when one of these trips was contemplated by the family. In those days the "Jim Crow" law had not poked its obnoxious frame in the Southland. There were no separate coaches for the races. And next to the anticipation of a trip, the thing that I always used to look forward to with the most childish eagerness, was buying apples off the train's newsboy. Somehow it seemed that those boys carried the reddest and biggest apples I ever saw. Perhaps that was only another of my imaginations about trains. Anyway, those old day coaches always had to me the odor of apples. Later in life, around my adolescent age, my parents sent me to school in Fayetteville, N. C. My feelings for trains followed me there. I was matured enough then not to be impressed with the heroism of freight brakemen and the livery of Pullman porters, but the blast shill from art engine at night used to always kindle my imagination, and give me a yearning to follow in the wake of its sound. There used to be a railroad engineer running through Fayetteville by the name of Bonnie. If this article should come under the eyes of any old resident of that town, he will no doubt recall this engineer, for he was known to all its residents for the way in which he blew the whistle of his engine. The whistle, as I have since learned, was merely a road crossing signal, but this engineer thrilled you with its almost human cry. For miles away you could hear its echo. Many are the nights I have lain in bed with the sound from Bonnie's whistle pricking my receptive imagination of things in the outer world. Through the kindness of Mr. Lucien White, musical editor of The Age, I had the pleasure not long since of enjoying, for the first time, the Hall Johnson Spiritual Singers. On this particular occasion (it may have been just a coincidence) three of the numbers on the program dealt with railroad trains. That observation helped to strengthen my trend to the belief, which thought I have expressed here before, that the motor car and the airplane may in time supplant the railroad train, but neither of these locomotions will ever stir the imagination of the child, the writer, the poet and the singer as has the railroad train.

By LOUIS WHITE Three characters in the history of our country, two of specific deeds in behalf of Negroes, have been extolled and revered all within a month's time, for the part they played in its annals. Following closely upon the heels of these events, is another name whose deeds of valor in defense of his country should never be forgotten by this republic. I refer to that Negro patriot, Crispus Attucks, who was the first to become a martyr in the Boston Massacre of March 5, 1770. As citizen and patriot, the name Crispus Attucks is of special significance to that part of this country's history which deals with the Revolutionary period... In laying down his life upon the sacrificial altar of his country, the dead martyr earned the title of hero and citizen in its broadest and fullest sense. And while no race can claim him in the matter of citizenship, yet we of the black race are not unmindful of the fact that racially it was to us he belonged. From the days of Crispus Attucks, down to the present era, in every struggle in which this country has engaged for liberty and the rights of the people, the Negro has played a conspicuous role. Hence, we have justly earned every right, morally as well as physically, to all the privileges of full citizenship. But although we cannot rely upon the historical deeds of such heroes as Crispus Attucks, Fred Douglas, Robert Smalls, and others of lesser fame, to get, and to retain, where they are had, the rights of complete suffrage, yet the memory of their sacrifices should spur us on in our fight against racial discrimination of every kind, and the retention of those rights to which, as citizens, we are entitled.

He was told if he didn't shut up and leave the station he would be thrown into a cell. He invited such action, saying it would help his demands for reparation." Continuing, Dr. Golden charges that when the husband could not be silenced, the police captain was sent for, who had the bright idea of sending for the Negro Democratic leader, who, it is alleged, is Gilbert Brown, and that the latter was told that to save the Democratic organization from scandal, the matter must be hushed up, and that if it was not hushed up, he, the leader, would lose his $4,000 a year sinecure with the Hague administration. Then, said Dr. Golden, when the leader opened the door to the room in which the couple were waiting he found the woman to be his own niece. This, said the columnist, made it easier than the colored leader had thought it would be and that "a quick trip out of town and the case is hushed up." Commenting upon the case, Dr. Golden declared that "The woman didn't necessarily have to be colored. The same brutal treatment might have been accorded to any one's wife." At the same time he declared that "Here in Jersey City there is no more abused and down-trodden people than our colored residents," "completely dominated and abused" under the Hague system. He asserted further: "This particular incident is an open challenge to the colored population of Jersey City to decide once and for all whether under the Hague system they have any personal rights. When such a heinous offense can be muzzled by the police in commance with a colored leader who prostitutes his own race for a few paltry dollars, has arrived for a concerted action in the part of outstanding representative colored men." As a result of the charges made by Dr. Golden, John Beggans, Commissioner of Public Safety, has ordered an investigation, according to a news story printed in the Jer- Speight, Miss E. J.

Commissioner To Investigate. It is alleged in the same story that powerful and mysterious agencies are exerting efforts to hush up the woman and her husband. Commissioner Beggans has made the following statement: "It is hard to believe," he said, "that Dr Golden would write this story without full foundation for it, and I would appreciate it if he would give me all the information he has in his possession." "I doubt that it is true," the commissioner continued, "but nevertheless I am going to get to the bottom of the alleged affair and after the investigation which I have ordered is completed, I will take such action as I may deem advisable. Attack Is Inconceivable. "It is inconceivable that an attack such as alleged could happen in any police station and I would withhold my judgment until the investigation is finished. "The people of Jersey City are entitled to protection in every publicular, and if any member of the department so far forgot himself and his oath of office, he should be punished to the fullest extent. "It matters not what may be the creed or color of the person; one is entitled to the same respect and protection as the other. The public may rest assured that I will not hesitate to act in a manner that I may feel justified if the facts warrant it." In the same column, Dr. Golden cites the case of Philip Harris, a Negro, who was fatally shot by Patrolman Gannier; the disposal of Counselor Robert S. Hartgrove as legal assistant in the County Board of Health when he refused to do the bidding of the present administration, and the trumped up charges made by the Hague people against Jim Burnett, a Negro prohibition investigator, which resulted in the loss of his job by Burnett, as instances of discrimination against Jersey's City's colored population. A strong editorial in the Jersey Journal, headed "Beggans and the Gantner Case," denouncing the action of the commissioner in exonerating and restoring to duty Patrolman Gantner, called forth a further statement from Commissioner Beggans, justifying his course, and stating that the shooting will be investigated by the Grand Jury, and that the County Prosecutor, with his own force of detectives, would make an independent investigation, and that if an indictment is found against Gantner, the officer would immediately be suspended from duty.
