Ex-Slave, Aged. 109,
_ Died In Canada
Welland, Ont.—James Wil-
son, 109 year old Negro, died
at his home here March 22
after an illness of two week.s
Wilson, who was born of
slave parents, had lived in Cana-
da sixty-five years. He boasted
he had never smoked, chewed
tobacco or partaken of intoxi-
cating liquors,”
In his boyhood he tried. to
escape from. slavery under a
particularly brutal master, but.
was recaptured. Finally he es-
caped during the . Civil War,
eventually reaching Cartada. He
was taken from his mother at
the age of ten and sold on the
auction block for $500.
|. Wilson was a daily figure'on
the street with his little truck
in which he collected firewood.
He wore a copper band around
one wrist and a metal band
around the other, the first as a
preventive against rheumatism,
the latter because of his pen-
chant for adorments,
and became the leader, of the antie
Cohen ‘faction which sought to des
troy the latter's political influence
and lower his prestige.
Only. partial success attended this
effort, however, for Mr. Cohen was
able to hold his own personally, al
though his followers’ were defeated
in the attempt to win recognition
from the Regublican Natiohal Cone
vention. Mr, Cohen also held tor his
position as Collector of the Port.

SENATOR BLEASE'S FILIBUSTER.
Senator’Coleman L. Blease of South
Carolina conducteda -one-man’ filibuster
in the Senate one day last. week, holding
- uup, all business when‘the Senate went in-
to executive session to consider the ex-
ecitive.. calendar. Before yielding the
floor and permitting the Senate~to-trafis-
act its business, Blase delivered a ti
rade against the coifirmation’ of James
A. Cobb for a second term’as judge of
the Municipal Court of the District of
Columbia, As quoted in, the Washington
Tribune, the .irate Senator from- South
Carolina delivered himself .in. the follow:
ing ternis:"* . ;
“I want to call attention of my brother
Senators from the South to one fact,” he
said, “and then if they desire to-vote to con-
firm Cobb, they may do so, but I do not pro-
pose to do it. ,1 objected to the confirma-
tion last night because -1 did not propose
to let the report go back to my home that
. J had voted to confirm 2 Negro for any
. office, T do not care what office, I do not
| office, T do not care what office it may be.”
* “A Betion of 3 white woman tried by-a
Negro jury in Judge Cobb's court was nar-
rated by Senatar Blease, "I-do not care if
she is as low down as a snake,” the fiery
South Carolinian said, “ag an Ainerican eit-
izen I protest against that.”
Blease declared that “the President of the
United States, if he has the power, should
instruct the ‘courts hero’ that they’ have
enough white judges and they hive enough
white jurors here*not to humiliate a white
woman.”
From ggod authority it was learned that
__Ro such incident has ever occurred in Judge
Cobb's or any other court,
After this fire-eating speech the nomi-
nation of judge -Cobb was confirmed by,
“the Senate without opposition. thus show-
ing that the objection raised by Blease
was all a bluff, made for the sole’ purpose
of catering to the prejudice and intoler-
ance of his ignorant constituents in
South Carolina, The motive was plain
enough, but it is hardly’ conceivable that
a miember of the highest legislative body
hn the land could deliberately expose his
motivation’ in such low and crude a fash-
ion. This is the Stuff “that they make
Senators out of in such backward states
as South Carolina. No wonder that state
is notorious for its lack’ of educational
facilities and high scale‘ of illiteracy.
The presence of such an’abnormal per-
Sonality as a Blease in the Senate should
“prove the strongest argument possible for
the extension of Federal aid to education
in the backward states, but safeguarded
+ through such agencies as ‘would extend
its benefits on equal terms to both races.
BARTER AND SALE OF ‘OFFICES.

Offee Committee, of which Senato:

The sub-committee of the Senate Post
Offce> Committee, of which Senator
Smith W. Brookhart is chairman, finally
submitted a report concerning the sale of
Federal patrofiage in the South. The in-

Mississippi, South Carolina and Tesas,
and Republican leaders in these state:
were charged wih collecting at least five

fused to convict Howard oi these charr:

of the Nepartment of Justice. In Georgia,
according to the report. the assessments
upon the officeholders ranged from five
“to ten per cent of the salaries, the great:
er portion .of which was distributed as
salary and travelling expenses fot. the
Republican, state committee's treasurer,
the National Committeeman and one or
two others, . j

above invnfved the (wo National commit

of Negroes in party matters, the investi:
gation found sifhilar congitions in’ ‘Texts
and South Carolina-avhere those held re-
of, whom: held Federal:.offices. Senator
‘McKellar}.'a:member:.af! the committee,
went so, far as to recommend the. dismis-
‘sal“of several of these officjals for mis-
conduct’ in, office, .In Texas the National
Committeemiag who is white, was charged
with’ working only to perpetuate himself
in office and trying to defeat the.only Re-
publican Congressman from ‘that, state, so
that he would retain absolute control of
the Federal patronage, . .
AS an.effort to fix the responsibility for
the sale of offices in the: South on leading
Negro. Republicans, this investigation has
proved a boomerang. It has showed that
the system of exacting contributions as a
feturn .for Federal appointments -has ex-
isted for years, and that if. Negroes took
part‘in it, they did So in the same way
that white Republicans did. It is sig-
nificaiit, that the two Negro leaders who
were picked to serve as scapegoats, were
both able to seciire vindication, one from
two Mississippi juries and the other from
Washington officials. | ~
While President Hoover received the
report of the committee with the declara-
tion”that ‘the vicious system exposed had
beeirrooted.out by the changes made in
the methods of apjromtment, charges have
been made in Georgia that thé’same sys-
tem.of exacting money for patronage has
been pfacticed by a.member of -the-advis-
jorys committee whose recommendations
liate been accepted, At all ‘events the
attempt to make thé Negro the sole fact:
ler in. the system has failed ignominiously.
RELIGIOUS FINANCIERING.
The following..news item takén from
the columns of the Baltimore Afro-Amer-
ican, under the headline, “Book Concern
in Receivers’ Hands,” brought something
of a shock to those who have’ followed
the fortunes of the Christian Recorder and
the A. M. E, Book Concern during the
past half century. It read as follows:
© Philadelphia—Charles K. Kester, white, D,
‘Ne Baxter.and R, R. Wright, were named

he’ public. auction, which. will probably
ensue, will bring the building down to a level
where the Methouhists ean finance it
We suppose this interposition of receiy-
ers. tWo of whose names we recognize as
those of the business manager and editof
of the Recorder, is to save the property
to the use of the chureh department for
which it was intended, The device of
having receivers appointed and selling the
property at auction for what it will bring,
and distributing the proceeds amiong the
creditars,...thus wiping out all claims
against the concern involved. is an old
‘one in business circles, but it ts not often
that it is resorted to by religious insti-
tutions. . However. if the Book Concern.
‘or the Publication department of the Af-
rican Methodist Episcopal Church, has
plunged too deep in 3 building venture
and exhausted its resources in paying
bonuses ior loans. it must need to throw
itself into the hands of the court. in order
to secure relief from its obligations.
This undertaking of a building enter-
prise beyond its means, is of the: same
nafure as much of the rash finangiering
practiced by many of our fraternaf organi-
zations and individual churches. in build-
ing halls. and_ctinsches..beyond. their ca:

Book Concern, we suppose the Financial
department of the dénomination ‘will in-
tervene to prevent so disastrous result.
But the announcement that the Book
Coincern has gone into the hands f-re-
ceivers is a startling orie, even if two of
those receivers are the Businéss’ Manager

cepted his defence as a’ complete refuta-
tion of the charges. SFB
. Dr. Proctor has’long filled a conspicu-
fous position in the ministry of the Con-
gregational Church, having beén elected
moderator of the local, associdtion of
churches of that denomination. He came
to Brooklyn some years ago, after having
served’ in an Atlanta congregation for
more than quarter of'a century, but the
methods and tactics that, served him in
Atlanta, have’ not commended him’to vor"
ular favor in’Brooklyn, Not’so long ago:
he’ provoked sharp criticism by~visiting,
ja/public school and seeking to segregate
the colored pupils, so, that he-might im~
press upon, them the privilege ‘they en-|
joyed in sharing the benefits of public in-
struction. ‘This did not set so well with
most of the parents, who considered that
las rent-payers and taxpayers their chil-
drea were entitled to an equal share of
public benefits without comment.
It must be remembered that Dr. Proc
tor-has a difficult task in building up a
church of a denomination that’ does not
appeal ‘largely to the massés of his race.
Support for a‘church of this kind has to
be supplemented by outside aid, largely
given by white people of that faith. Like
most preachers, Dr. Proctor is’ anxious
to-do good améng his people and to that
‘end would erect a modern and adequate
church plant for institutional work. In
order to attract funds for this purpose.
he has been zealous in-painting the needs
of the work, and like most solicitors for
missionary aid unconsciously painted the
heathen a'little blacker than the facts
warranted? It was probably a case of mis-
sionary zeal parting company with discre-
tion. The same thing has been done by
many white missionaries in describing the
depravity and degradation of black heath-
ens in the*South or in Africa,
But in referring to the .evils that his
work was intended to prevent the people
‘of his race bringing upon themselves and
their employers, Dr. Proctor evidently
went further than he intended and dealt
a blow at the economic welfare of the race
by justifying the. inference that they are
carriers of disease and crime.’ No race
posesses immunity from either of these
evils, either as,a carrier or a victim, but
it is manifestly unfair to stamp a whole
rhcé as being in that category. The
most notorious disease carrier in the: his-
tory of the New York Health Department
was a white domestic, who finally became
known as “Typhoid Mary." because of the
fact that typhoid fever was the sequel to
her employment in-any household. “in the
interest of the public health she was fin-
ally placed under restraint as a deadly
menace to society.
We are certain that Dr. Proctor did not
mean it to be inferted that colored ser-
vants belonged in this class. Neverthe-
less, thase in a position to know state
that alarm has been created among em-
ployers by the publication of the indis-
jcreet inferences for which Dr, Proctor is
responsible, hence the resentment and
criticism expressed on all sides in Brook-
lyn, The lesson to be draivn is’ that re-
ligious zeal to attract large' contributions
should be tempered with sound discretion
in adhering to facts. .

‘The bill providing for a new, Alunici-
pal Court district. to be created out of
the east section of the Seventh district
of Manhatian, with wo new judges. in;
troduced Uy Asiemblyman Rivers, was
passed by the Assembly on Margh 20.
The Democrats minority fought strenu-
ously against the passage of this measure,
fon various pretexts, after it came up for
third reading. When -all their strategy
had failed. arid the bill figally came up
for passage jt was carried by a strict party
vote of eighty-six Republicans in its favor,
sixty-four Democrats voting against it.
The bill is now in the Senate where its
carly passage is expected. n
While this bill has been changed as to
the boundariés of the new district, from
the previous measures intended tu pro-
vide, for this court, it is practically the
same bill that has been passed and vetoed
five times during the past five’¥ears, Not-
withstanding the rooted objection held by
former Governor Smith to the creation of
: new court and the clection of new judg-
5, which caused him to repeatedly veto
a similar measure, it is thought possible
that this yeaf, with a new Governot in
the chairs it might be possible to secure
approval of the measure, = i
‘The ‘need for an additional court to
serve'the legitimate demands of the popu-
xrowth of population and business in the
Seventh district hase bgew set forth in
all the previous arguments ‘for the pass
age af a bill of this nature. With the
growth of populaton avid business in the
strict ‘the need fur additional court foe
cilities becomes greater, accentuating the|
demands of the district. » Considering
to-serve ‘the people of 8: popu-
lous’ district: whose™“court “fa:
cilities: have fallen, behind their
needs. The position to be tak-
en, by the Iocal authorities wil
also have some weight with
the Governor, but there does
not. appear to be any reason
why the measure be consider-
ed. solely from a , partisan
iéwpotat. 7

Storey and Marshall
Editor of The NewYork Age:
May I, on behalf: of the N. A. A.
C.. Pa saict your interest and 309,
port "of the forthcoming » memorial
campaign to the late Moorfield. Storey
and” Louis Marshall? It is un-
necessary .for me to do more than
rehearse tersely the reasons for
whole-hearted participation, by all
colored people in this campaign. BY
means of it, we shall be able.to meas-
ure the extent of our “gratitude to
these (we great champions .of the
Negro who, diring their lifetime,
foyght so valiantly to remove bar-
riers based of color. %
w'Te is to these two! great human-
itarians that the Negro is indebted
for: the five decisions of far-reaching
importance to Negroes which were
won in-the United States Supreme
Court. It was Mr. Storey who was
largely responsible for the decision
which ended for all time disfranchise-
ment of Negroes by the grandfather
clauses, It was he who won the
case of Buchanati vs, Warley, better
Known as the Louisville segregation
case. It was he who, wor the fam-
ous Arkainsas case in 1919, which de-
cision led to the saving of 12 Ne-
groes from death and_67 other from
fong. prison terms,
Mr. Marshall, atmied and ‘won the
Texas white primary case. He pre-
pared and argued the two cases in
Which we sought to obtain a defin-
ite g decision by the United | Stites
Supfeme Court on the very import-
ant issue as to whether or not in-
dividual property owners could
write in to. deeds to property clauses
which prohibit sale or rental of that
property to Negroes. At the time of
hig death, Mr. Marshall was. pre-
paring the case io test the validity
of enabling acts by- means of’ which
cerlain Southerh states. sought to get
around the Supreme Court's decision
in the Texas white primary case.
Not only did. those two great men
give freely of their legal talent but
Senerously of their funds as well.
‘We must give of our eneray. time
and means to carty of the work 0
which Moorfield Storey and Louis
Marshall have contributed so. greatly
and so generously. The battle for
justice €0 the Negro is far from be-
ing won. We must shoulder our
burden more largely than we have
in the past. for others will help us
only when we show a willingness to
help ourselves
WALTER WHITE,
Neahae: Babceeni:
All the people of this week will
experience more or less change and
worry thyough the opposite sex in
the coming birthyear. Those who
are married will need patience with
the marciage partner, and those who
are single will: need to be very
thoughtful in dealing with the af-
fayrs of the heart, From a business
point of view the group this seek
‘will be more or: less welll fardred, il
new platis are not’ too hastily con-
sidered. Partnerships donot turn
‘out swell for these folks. As a
rule, the people of this week work
best alone.
The people wha begin a new birth:
year on March 29 will find the year
a very active and mental period. and
those who are energetic and thought-
ful should shew some worthwhile
results at end of the year. The health
will need attention. New plans. will
not turn out well, and ‘those who

Giwing verbal inspiration of the
Bible. the speaker presented the
fact that when Jebus came into the
world and ifted up His. standard
men flocked to Him and heard Him
Exen though some. were of fale
opinion, they came because their
souls needed . something, and they
came to Him. =
Because they did not care to in-
terpret Gods words “unless ye ea

cannot enter the Kingdom of Heav-

Him, All but the twelve disciples

The N. Y. Herald Tribune) no race riders in America are disappearing. Slowly, but sure, they are dropping from the harbors, steeplechasing sport after practically disappeared from that. Last season there were not one dozen Negro jockeys and not more cross-country riders. Habits change in racing as else, which may or may not have something todo with the distance of the race from the side of riders and trainers. There will the usual representation among swipes and exercise boys. But in more likely that class distinction has had more to do with it, when the last ten years there have gone into the thoroughbred racing some of the country's very finely people of the social and financial lives and with them new and revolutionary ideas. Also, it is more probable that white trainers riders have been playing the role of "freeze out" against their contemporary.
ae cedule of thoroughbred racing was laid in the South in dourishing days before the Civil and when its chivalry regarded essential, riding far beneath its city. As a result, jockeys were uited from among the slaves in in the North the Negro riders dominated. But with the emati-tical the race, Negro jockeys naturally were thrown upon resources against white stances with the inevitable re- friend dow confronts them.

KID CHOCOLATE
SCORES QUICK K.O.
OVER RIDGEWAY
Black Bill Is Beaten
In Semi-Final
Contest
Kid Chocolate of Havana, Cuba, resumed his ring activities in New York after a three month's vacation by fighting the feature bout at Madison Square Garden Friday night, March 21. His opponent, Al Ridgeway of Jersey City, was beaten into a state of helplessness in less than two rounds.
The end came when the second round was 2 minutes and 29 seconds old. In this round Chocolate dropped Ridgeway three times for a count of nine and the fourth time Ridgeway dropped to his left knee from a short right jolt to the chin as he rushed in swinging an overhead right for Chocolate's jaw. Al struggled quickly but unsteadily to his feet and the reference, Joe Dorman, stepped in and stopped the one moment. Chocolate and Dorman both helped Ridgeway to his corner and then Joe Humphries stepped into the ring and raised Chocolate$^2$ hard high in token of victory.
A crowd of 17,556 paid $56,592.56 to witness the contest. Only once did Ridgeway - appear to have much of a chance and that was in the first round just after he arose from a knockdown. To begin with Chocolate shot left hooks to Ridgeway's face and the bout was only a few seconds old when the Cuban had opened a cut over Ridgeway's right eye. A bled profiled and as he backed away, Chocolate kept boring into him, cutting and slashing with both hands. He forced Ridgeway to the ropes and dropped him with a left and right to the jaw. Ridgeway didn't appear to be badly nevertheless, he took a count of men. Upon rising he rushed Chocolate, lashing out with hard rights, several of which landed flush Chocolate's jaw. The Kid did not appear to be worried by this and before the round ended he was again shooting sharp punches to Ridgeway's face.
After the fight Chocolate was presented with an embroided photograph of himself in ring costume by Phil O'Hara. The presentation was made by Joe Humphries.
In the semi-final bout Midget Wolgast of Brooklyn was awarded the decision over Black Bill of Cuba, a cousin and stable-mate of Kid Chocolate. The bout went fifteen rounds and was fast and furious although no knockdowns marked the battle.
rider, inscribed his name in the Hall of Fame by rigging the first Futurity winner, a classic which is now the most richly endowed of the world and most cherished of all juvenile stakes. This triumph dates back to 1888. Barnes wgo with Proctor Knott, beating the great Salvator ridden by Andy (Tony) Hamilton. Barnes won the Brooklyn handicap of 1890 with Burlington and a year later repeated with Tenny.
Few of our present day riders can show such a fine record as Tony Hamilton in the matter of stake achievements. He won the American Derby of 1887 with C. H. Todd. He had the leg on Exile in the Brooklyn Handicap of 1889. Six years later he won the same classic aboard Hornpipe. Hamilton won the Hudson Stakes of 1889 with Ballarne and the 1890 Furthur with Potorot. He won the 1891 Portchance winner of the 1891 Trial Stakes. He took a Suburban Handicap in 1895 with Lazarote and a Metropolitan Handicap at Morris Park a year later with Counter Tenor.
Tiny Williams was best known for his ability with two-year-olds. None of his day could match this fine post rider in a sprint. Perkins scored sensational success after success with horses trained by Byron McClelland. Emanuel Morri rode the Lucky Baldwin string in the time of Galindo and Rel el Santa Anita. Peter Clay will ever be remembered for his skillful handling of the great limp. But one of the greatest riding feats ever attained rewarded the skill of Johnny Lee. This Negro rider swept the card of six races at Churchill Downs on the afternoon of June 5, 1907.

Bridgeport High 5 Gives Gold Medal To Negro Captain Clarke, Who Led Basketball Team to City Title, Is Hailed As Leader
Bridgeport, Conn.-George Clarke, Negro athlete and Central High school basketball captain and forward, who piloted the team to Central High School's first city championship in two years, and who was hailed as the best player and picked for all-state forward in the Yale Tournament at New Haven on Friday and Saturday, received an honor never before given in the school when he was awarded a special gold medal "for the highest leadership," by Principal James C. Moore, on Tuesday.
Citing the fact that Clarke a Negro had encountered exceptional difficulties and came up after each test "a smiling and unchallenged leader," Principal Moore said that he felt the star Central player deserved some other token of the school's regard than the letter which will be awarded him for the season's play.
The medal was presented Clarke at a student assembly where 88 other students were recipients of "Scholarship-Leadership" pin awards for excellence in these two qualities, and 2,200 cheering students rose in a mass to greet the athletic hero of the school as he came to the platform to take the medal from Principal Moore. The award was a complete surprise to Clarke and to the students. Clarke, in three years of basketball competition in Central and in the former Congress High School, has carved himself a niche in Central's Hall of Fame. He played substitute forward last year for Central, and the year before was a regular on the Congress High team.
In Central this year, he reached his peak. As captain of the team, he played in all of Central's 22 games, and in all but four of them led his team to victory. He was removed from a game only, twice throughout the season, both times in the closing moments of the last quarter, when injuries forced him to the sidelines. When Eddie Jonton, Central's regular center, was injured in the early part of the season, Clarke took his position, and filled in there so well that Central won four straight games against hard opponents despite Jonton's absence.
Phil Edwards, former captain of the New York University tract team and the outstanding colored distance runner of the century, successfully defended his American indoor 600 yard record on Tuesday night. March 18, at the National, A. A. U. games, held in Madison Square Garden. Edwards, wearing the colors of the Hamilton Olympic Club, defeated a large field which included Eddie Roll of Newark, E. F. Blake of Boston and Fred Pumphrey of the New York A. C. John Lewis, also colored, of the Detroit City College, was the winner of the 300 yard title. Lewis was practically unknown in the East before this race and surprised many of the fans from Harlem with his burst of speed.

At The Odeon Theatre
The thrilling experiences of the crew of a United States submarine which was rammed by a tramp steamer and sunk in the China Sea, are vividly pictured in one of the most fascinating dramatic talking pictures that has ever been produced: "Men Without Women." This picture will be shown at the Odeon Theatre this coming Saturday, Sunday and Monday (March 29, 30:31).
Several of the scenes in "Men Without Women" are gripping almost beyond description. The story first traces the revels of a jolly band of sailors in Shanghai, China. It then brings them aboard their submarine in a raging storm and shows the giant steamer crashing into the submarine and hurling it to the bottom of the ocean. With their torpedo tube smashed, the men have no hope for escape; Their radio calls for help bring several warships to their rescue while divers descend and work frantically to free the imprisoned men, the hearts and souls of the sailors are bared as they face their ordeal and as they think about most tender adventurers with their sweethearts!

The Belmont School Auditorium.
Belmont avenue and West Kinney street Newark, N. J., held a goodly audience on Friday evening, March 21 for the recital given by the Wilson Lamb Ensemble, sponsored by the Daughters of Conference and senior chore of the Clinton A. M. E Zion Church, Rev. O. J; Remsen, pastor.
The Ensemble presented its usual program of madrigals, sacred, classical and Russian music, and a group of Negro Spirituals, under direction of Mr Lamb. It is one of the best trained ensembles in this section and its work on this occasion left little to be desired by loves of chorus singing. It is particularly to be remarked that their motion is absence of the so-called cognacous, high brow sophisticate, both in the personnel of Mr Lamb's Ensemble and in the audiences that assemble to hear them.
They are to say, most emphatically, that the absences are the ones being for this group singles, with ambient, and produces a splendid dim. The soloists were in good form and were appreciatively received.

3,000 Brooklynites At Protest Meeting
(Continued from Page One)
relative to the article in the Brooklyn Times."
He told of being with Dr. Proctor forered several hours that day and of asking him to come to the meeting. Dr. Proctor declined to attend but offered to send a statement. It is said that Dr. Proctor was advised by his lawyer not to accept the invitation.
This was followed by Dr. Harten introducing Dr. A. M Jacobs, dentist, who acted as master of ceremonies. Dr. Jacobs is the son of Bishop F. M. Jacobs of the A. M, E. Zion church. Dr. Jacobs declared that if Dr. Proctor had been misquoted he should have attended the meeting and vindicated himself.
The next on the program was a selection by the. Punam Jubilee Singers, under the direction of Miss Eudoxie West. They sang, "Lift Every Voice and Sing," the Negro National Anthem, by J. Rosamond Johnson. This was followed by an invocation by the Rev. S. T. Erdridge, pastor of Berenan Baptist Church.
Speaks For West Indies.
Shortly before 'Dr. Harten spoke, Dr. Jacobs invited anyone in the audience to have something to say. Among those who spoke were the Rev, Charles B. Collins of 604 Myrtle avenue, who denounced Dr. Proctor, and in the course of the denunciation stated that Dr. Proctor was a "gistulum pisodonus" which, as was later explained to our reporter, was a Greek term for a poisonous snake. Among the other speakers were the Rev, Canon Miller, who spoke in behalf of the West Indies of Brooklyn. The Rev, Miller declared that he did not believe that Dr. Proctor's alleged remarks were made in sincerity. William Williams, a Pullman porter, spoke on behalf of the Pullman porters. A young lady, who stated that she was a member of the Ciel Club, also added her protest.
Dr. Hartga Speaks.
Following these short talks, Dr. Harten was called upon, Dr. Jasenko, requested Mia Lillian Corbett of the Affen-Protective League, to introduce Dr. Harten. In her introduction, Mia Corbett lauded Dr. Harten as a man who loved God first and his race next. A man whose heart beats true and a man of whom all were proud. When Dr. Harten arms he was received with thunderous applause. The demonstration lasted for several minutes. He stated that he would not deal a speech, but would only deal with the audience. His first point was "If the article attributed to Dr. Proctor is not damaging, we ought to sing 'Preise God from Whom all blessings flow' pronounce the beneficence and go home. If this article is damaging and we do nothing to repudiate it, we are traitors to our race.
Holds No Animosity.
While assuring this hearer that he was a good friend of Dr. Proctor's, that he had entertained him and had been entertained by him, had, spoken numerous times in the Nazarene Church and held no animosity against him personally, the Rev. Mr. Harten went out to declare that he had been a friend for the lapse of ten days between the publication of the original interview and the published explanation.

THE NEW-YORK AGE
had spent several hours in discussion with Dr. Proctor one day last week and again yesterday.
"I have been accused of fighting Dr. Proctor," he said, "but I would not have anything to do with any individual or any body of people who plan to do Dr. Proctor any bodily harm. I have been the chief speaker three times at baptismal services in the Nazarene Congregational Church. I have exchanged hospitality with Dr. Proctor. We are not fighting his church. We are not fighting Dr. Proctor as such. We are fighting his methods.
"We do not object to Dr. Procter receiving money from white people we wont get it—but we object to Dr. Procter receiving money we get it a few dollars, for his church."
The Rev. Mr. Harten declared that, when he first spoke to Dr. Proctor after the publication of the interview, Dr. Proctor told him the article was the truth. "The Rev. Dr. Proctor now agrees that his article is damaging. Why did it take a man of his training ten days to find out that his article was damaging. He ought to have gone to the press and demanded that the article be rectified. I do not believe that the Rev. Dr. Proctor, would willfully do anything to damage his race any more than the most serious action in this place but the Rev. Dr. Proctor's method is against us. Almost every time he speaks to anyone of the white race he apologizes for the black race."
In the course of his remarks Dr. Harten read the letter sent by Richardson Webster of the Brooklyn Daily Times. He stopped short in the reading of the letter, in the part where Mr. Webster wrote: "You did not say that your people are carriers of disease and crime. You were only fearful that conditions might arise which would produce disease and crime." Dr. Harten thundered: "You can see right there this letter condemns him. The man can't think."
One Man For Proctor.
When Dr. Harten had finished reading the letter, he asked for any comments, that might be made. One man in the gallery, who described himself as the Rev. Frank Holmes, stated that Dr. Harten knew him. Dr. Harten replied that he did. The Rev. Mr. Holmes had this to say: "I think that Dr. Proctor is exonerated by this letter you just read." This statement caused quite some excitement and if "it had not been for Dr. Harten pleading for the man, it is possible that he would have suffered violence.
White's Carry Diseases.
A white man in the audience, who told reporters he was Jack Hugo, formerly an ambulance driver for the Kings County Hospital, but at present unemployed, asked permission to speak. The Rev. Mr. Harten invited him to the platform. He introduced himself as a Tennessean.
"I tell you and you can see the record," he said, "that 72 per cent of social diseases are introduced by the white people. If you ask me Mr. Proctor should be lashed with a biggy sent. His remarks sent the audience and throw their hats in the air, and everyone glapped and shouted. The Rev. Mr. Harten stood on the platform and smiled and nodded his applitation.
Police Guard Dn. Proctor
When Dr. Proustor failed to appear at the meeting, reporters went to his home, 331 Pultman avenue, where they hit his son, Dr. Roy Proustor, a dentist, who stated that his father was not at home and declined to be interviewed further. Two policemen were on duty in

even though the husband's lawyers were none other than the great Bethlehem Steel Company's own attorneys, took the case to the Supreme Court of Pennsylvania, the fair Nora was victorious, despite the strong evidence against her. Then followed suits in equity instituted by Mr. Ray in an effort to recover the property and jewels he had given her. And again was he a loser. Nora kept both the jewels and her interest in the reality.
A. Coatly Settlement.
Finally, through their attorneys, after many conferences, a settlement was agreed upon by which Mr. Ray regained control of his property, but, by the same token, it cost him a neat sum in cash—between $20,000 and $50,000—to attain to this result.
And now the last act has ended. Mr. Ray, after settlement, sued for divorce on the sole ground of desertion.
Mrs. Ray, represented, as in all of the preceding litigation, by Attorney Raymond Pace Alexander of Philadelphia, did not contest the suit and paid the plaintiff, 7, Judge McKeen of the Northampton County Court, Easton, signed a decree of divorce, finally and absolutely freeing Joseph from the ties that bound him to Nora, leaving him wiser, perhaps, in the ways and wiles of women, but decidedly leaner in purse.

been presented in a motion picture theatre in Harlem this season. This program consists of two big features: "Murder on the Roof", starring Dorothy Revier Raymond Hatton and "Four Feathers" with William Powell, Richard Arlen, Cline Brook and Noah Beery. "Murder on the Roof" has been acclaimed by critics as one of the greatest mystery melodramas which the talking picture screen has yet offered, it is a story of vigour and valor of and of a crime which buffled the police of two continents. It holds one in suspense from its very opening to the moment when the spectator gasps in surprise at the arrest of the unknown murderer.
"Four Feathers" (which is being presented on the same bill with "Murder on the Roof") ran for one solid year at the Criticism Theatre on Broadway. It is the story of a young man who is branded as a coward by his comrades and who went through the most sturring adventures that ever befall any man to redeem himself in their eyes and in the eyes of the woman he loved.
At The Lafayette Theatre
Lew Leslie's "Blackbirds" disbanded before arrangements could be made to present the show in Harlem. Unwilling: to let this show go out of existence without giving Harlem the剧院goers an opportunity to see it, the stars of the show got together and with the collaboration of Charles Davis and Jimmy Marshall are now presenting at the Lafayette Theatre the birds stars have a last, snappy band, and gorgeously costumed revue; which, the opinion of the players and of the reviewer who say the opening performance on Saturday, is as a line theatrical entertainment as the Broadway production.
The cast of the "Blackbirds" Stars Revue includes the stars of the Broadway sensation, Johnny Hudgins, Tim Moore, George Cooper, Crawford Jackson, Monton Moreland and other celebrities. The show lasts one hour and a half and in this time, is packed all the laughs, all the beauty, all the splendid dancing, all the side-splitting comedy which originally took three hours to present. In addition, Johnny Hudgins is seen in a new bedroom comedy bit which is one of the funniest ever presented to a theatre audience either in Harlem or on Broadway.
The talking feature picture for the week is "New York Nights". This presents, Norma Talmadge in her first talking picture. "New York Nights" is a melodrama of racketeers and stage folk. The action is laid entirely on Broadway and in Harlem, the gripping climax being enacted on the 125th Street Station of the New York Central.

THINGS SEEN, HEARD AND DONE AMONG PULLMAN EMPLOYEES
By JAMES H. HOGANS
THE DEBUTANTE
The New York, New Haven & Hartford Railroad Company, pride of New England, and rated at one-time as one of the wealthiest and best dividend paying roads, for its mileage, in the country, presented on Tuesday of last week its youngest transportation child, "Yankee Clipper," to the patrons of its lines between New York and Boston. If splendor, comfort and the latest style of fashionable clothing will count for anything in the rehabilitation of the road's former wealth and reputation, then it may be safely predicted that the latest child will be one of the factors in aiding the restoration; for the rail debulant is a combination of all these accessorial qualities.
Even before its formal presentation in New York, descriptions features, the cars are equipped with wheelchair railroad employees, with special door locks, such as are regarding the degree of elegance in use on Pullman private cars, the train would represent. But one operation on those employees who even these accounts failed to prepare with keys. Another feature is that prepare one for the degree of superb- at each window of a car are decoress which the debulant present- ative curtains, although these are Tuesday, open for inspection last not exactly a novelty.

There is hardly any need here to describe the ceremonial features that preceded the train's departure from Grand Central Station. Those features were well covered by both railway and bus services. There are, however, many new features about the cars which were not mentioned. Then there were other phases such as the spike and span Pullman porters, and the probable cost of the cars in dollars and cents which were overlooked, of which there are no known Yankee Clipper" cars, which were built especially for its service, is the heating system. During the winter months, the matter of temperature, and the proper degree it should be kept, has always prevailed. Pullman car service employees. This comes, of course, mostly by reason of physiological differences. It frequently happens, porters say that one passenger will complain of a car being "too hot", while another passenger in the same car will be "freezing to death". And so it goes.
These cars are equipped with the thermostatic heating system, which automatically shuts off when a certain temperature is attained. It may also be adjusted in one part with the other part, with the other part. The second innovation is that each seat has an individual table or shelf, which the passenger may easily place in position himself, if he desires its use. There is also an individual two are traveling together, an ordinary sized table, on which sits a regular reading lamp, stands for the use of both, and on which may be placed reading matter and personal knack knacks. The most feature is a storage place for large and cumbersome baggage. Here the passenger is free from any interference in the turning of his seat. Then there is - the ventilation system. This system so works that no matter how long a car remains in its position, it is not damaged. But latest of all the features are the ball bearing trucks, which make one unconscious of the motion and speed of the train.
Pennsylvania Terminal Porters Lose Uniforms In Early Morning Fire
Fire of undetermined origin broke out in the porters' check room in the Sunnyside Yards Pullman terminal in Long Island early Sunday morning and before it was discovered had destroyed many of the porters uniforms which had been there for several hundred days. The hundred Pullman porters out on Peninsulay Railroad trains without their customary uniforms of blue.
The blaze was quickly extinguished but not before many of the uniforms has been either entirely destroyed or destroyed. A injury call was sent to the District Superintendent 'R. V. Watson and his staff who rushed to the scene.
Many of the porters when they returned Sunday morning were faced with the new that had been destroyed. After a conference, Instructor J. T. Reid made a call on all the free uniform porters and inside of three hours he returned with ten complete uniforms for use of the porters. An NOS was sent to the adjacent districts for uniforms, which was readily responded to.
The cause of the fire and the amount of damage is not yet known.
Brooklyn and a brother, Carroll R. Best. The funeral was held from Macedonia Church here amidst a sorrowful gathering of sorrowing relatives and friends. Rev. M. Griffin conducted the service.
Mrs. Rebecca Best Smith has returned to her home in Maryland after having a very enjoyable winter here with her parents. On her way back she spent a few days with her brother, Dr. Thomas H. Best, Jr. of Owensville, S. C.

features, the cars are equipped with special door locks, such as are in use on Pullman private cars, and only those employees who operate on the train are supplied with keys. Another feature is that at each window of a car are decorated with a nameplate, not exactly a novelty. Years ago, this was a common decoration in Pullman cars, but they are only used on private cars now. Nevertheless, they do give a 'homelike atmosphere to a car. And that, it seems, is precisely the effect, the builder desired to create.
When the "Clipper" left. New York on its maiden trip, its operative lounges are decorated with a car, a diner, four straight parlor cars and an observation car. The Pullman crew were Conductor John R. Simmons; maid, Pearl Goodson; Porters W. E. Maddo; B. D. Beale, G. Burkley, G. Dorsay, W. C. Dorsay and W. G. Dedman. All of these porters operated prior to the absorption of its prior sleeping car-service by the Pullman Company.
Although the new train's running time between terminals is fifteen minutes less that of its nearest rival, the "Merchants Limited," it is expected that the "Clipper" will take much of the latter's patronage, due to its luxuriousness and central location at terminals. It is roughly estimated, that the two sections of the new train represent nothing less than $275,000 in Pullman equipment and furnishings.
Mott Haven Yard News
Despite the fact that the "Yankee Clipper", the "New Haven's latest flyer", is estimated as being the finest parlor car train in the world today, few of the veteran parlor car owners in this district have been trained to handle the officers who have been successfully bidding for service on it. As seniority and type of service were followed in the assignments many of those who it was supposed should have been avid bidders, should have been heads when asked if they had been.
Apparently, there were definite reasons for this, or rather all those who were questioned gave similar reasons. The gist of these was that the train was an experiment, and no experienced parlor is eager who placed on all experimental run.
Secondly, the decorations, turnishings and other equipment of these cars are of such character that the parlor will have to spend twice as much time in setting up and setting away this equipment than is required in the finest parlor car, and for which he will get no extra or overtime pay.
Thirdly, due to the type of service which is advertised for the train, combined with its newness, in opinion of these veterans that theinemacounters (the spectors, railroad and Pullman) will make the train their favorite horse. "And furthermore," as one veteran expressed himself, "the same quarter tip and the same side tip, just as they do on other trains."
F. Ringle, the gay barmaster, has returned to his run between New York and North Adams, after four years in the business of illness. "Ring," as the boy he called, "generous in praise of the manner in which his friends remembered him while ill, and also the promptness with which the Star Venus embulbs the Beneficial League, the P. T. B. A., and the Pullman, plan of sick benefice, pad his sick clams.
From those who know him, and those consist of most of the substantial veterans in this district, Sylvester Brown, a veteran in this district, has received many expressions of condolence in the passing of his mother, Mrs. Emma Brown, who died in this city on March 9.
To know Mr. Brown was to know another for there existed a strong bond of affection between the two. At the entirement of the deceased, which he Woodland Cemetery, March 12, among the mourners were many of the veterans fellow workers.

Preparations are now under way for the May dance and spring spring of the Pullman Porters Athletics and Social Club, which will take will take this. This affair is usually looked looked at. Pullman Pullman porters classic of the George N. Spencer, the handsome chef of the Pennsylvania Lines, will be conductor of the event. Springtime, boys, and incidentally, inspection, but it will be check and double check on tan shoes and colored, collars, says Supt. Logan.
Well Spring is here. It brought joy and gladness to some and sorrow and sadness to others. What we have in mind at this time is Miami Crew who are not doing so with our southbound trips. So as Spring comes in so does the sad news.
We understand that the property bought by J. R. Drewery, W. H. Thobbs and Adway Fields has the hand of the receiver, of Course C. D. Deane, the theatre stock some time ago. The reporter at Miami writes us that the crash on the above-mentioned porters was a sad affair. In fact was so bad that the next morning the porters were them as the Magnolia Hotel, Deane, formed by the manager that he felt very sorry for the New York boys. But there was nothing he could do. But what we wint to know is how four porters find comfort in one another and W. Kearney if this can be true. We hate to think that four men slept in one bed.
W. K. Banks is with us again checking up on some of our new men. We often wonder what he thinks when he meets some of them after they arrive in New York.
It seems that some of our porters have forgotten the importance of checking lines correctly. From the many reports we are receiving, this applies to the older men as well as the younger men.
We was talking with one of the New York baseball fans last week and informed by him that Manager Hunter was beginning to unblanket some of his last year stars.
The following porters are still off sick: W. H. McPherson, G. Carson, L. T. Carter, J. L. Green, H. Gass, L. C. Tarter, J. L. Green, E. Dawkins, J. W. Moore H. W. Davis, C. E. Tolliver, G. C. Jones and C. Headen.
Primo A Lettieri, our stenographer, had better watch his step when Primo Carrera meets George Godfrey. He may use a lot of money, which would help him on wedding day from what we observed one day, last wee' it won't be long now.
Fire swept out our porters' check room Sunday morning about 1 a.m., March 23. J. G. Moore who has charge certainly had some job trying to find dry uniforms for some of our porters. We are able to say just how this fire could have been that the reported for duty Sunday morning were shocked when they saw what was left of our check room. Of course, some of our porters' uniforms were completely burned up while others were soaked with water. Our District Superintendent R. R. Watson and his staff were called upon by M. C. Sawyer that it will take a few days before he can say just what the damage will amount to.
Our free uniform porters are to be commended for the quick response for old uniforms for their unfortunate brother porters whose uniforms were lost or destroyed in the chock-room fire. Instructor J. T. Reid was called in Sunday morning to round up as many uniforms he could for the benefit of those who shipped out by fire. In 3 hours he returned with ten uniforms complete.
H W. Davis, a well-liked porter of 12 years' service, died Sunday morning, March 23, at the home of his sister in Baltimore, Md.
