OMEGAS TO HONOR THE BIRTHDAY OF COLONEL YOUNG
Fraternity to Observe Birth of Only Negro Graduate of West Point Academy.
Washington, D. C.—The anniversary of the birth of Colonel Charles Young, which occurs on March 12th, will be observed throughout the fifty-four chapters of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity bp private services on that date or by public ceremonies on Sunday March 15.
Colonel Young, the only Negro graduate of the Military Academy at West Point to attain the rank of Colonel in the Regular Army, was born at Mayslick, Kentucky, March 12, 1864. At the age of sixteen, he graduated from High School at Ripley, Ohio. His alert mind commended itself to the school authorities of his town so favorably, that he found himself teaching in the public schools of Ripley. He was appointed to West Point in 1884, and while there endured many things not mentioned in the curriculum. There was no refinement of cruelty and insult which was not heaped upon his head in the attempt of his fellow students to drive him from the institution. "He faced insult as he faced his daily bread and with the same impertunable balance and determination. He not only faced death in war, but what is more difficult, he faced it daily in peace."
One of his instructors, realizing the effects of the ostracism and enforced solitude, advised him to request a horse and promised that he would see that it was given him. Young thereafter spent many lonely hours in the saddle, and became an expert horseman. This is said to have had much weight in determining his assignment to cavalry.
Young graduated as an additional Second Lieutenant in 1889. He served on front duty, and in 1894 was appointed Military Instructor at Wilberforce, where because of his intimate knowledge of French, German and Mathematics, he was requested to teach these subjects in addition to his regular duties. Because of his quickness in coming to the aid of needy students, it was said of him literally, "He clothed the naked and fed the hungered."
During the Spanish American War, Young was appointed a Major of the 9th Ohio Infantry. After hostilities ceased, he reverted to his regular rank, and was assigned to the Phillipines, where he commanded a troop at Samar Blanca, Aurora, Daraga, Toboaco, Rosans, and San Joaquín. He was returned to the States in 1902; commanded a troop at San Francisco; then became Acting Superintendent of Sequoia and Grant National Parks, in the administration of which he received formal praise and approval.
He was appointed Military Attache to Haiti in May, 1904." While there he made an accurate map of the Island which the Marines are reported to have used on their recent expedition. He also collected material for his drama, "Toussaint L'Ouverture" and for an exhaustive monogram in which he revealed the causes of the outbreaks in Haiti and suggested what he thought effective means for putting an end to them. After a tour of duty on the General Staff in Washington, Young was again sent to the Phillipines.
Bank of Major
In 1912, Young attained the rank of Major in the Regular Army and while in Washington, D. C., at that time became a member of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity.
He was next appointed Military Attache to Liberia. Of his services to that country, the Adjutant General said, "It has been only with the most careful advisory supervision of Major Young that peace and order has been maintained."
In 1915, he was awarded the Spingarn Medal. From February

SEGREGATIONISTS CAMPAIGNING TO ORGANIZE THE CITY
Attorney Reports Segregationists Watching All Movements of the N. A. A. C. P.
White property owners of Washington, D. C., whose private segregation agreements are to be brought before the Supreme Court, this April by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, are attempting to organize the entire National Capital, so that colored people will be unable to buy or occupy property in any but the districts assigned to them.
The segregation advocates are publishing their own daily newspaper, called "The North Capitol Citizen," which gives daily reports of the extension of the of the segregation movement. One of its recent issues which has come to the offices of the N. A. A. C. P. reports that for the first time in the American history of the District of Columbia, all the 38 white property owners in a square, had placed on record in the office of the Recorder of Deeds an indenture prohibiting the sale of any of the property to any Negro or colored person for the next 21 years.
The same issue of the North Capitol Citizen reports that organization of the segregation forces by blocks on a city wide basis is proceeding and the news is headed by such lines as the following: "Randolph Place Doing Great Work," "S Street Continues to Get Results," "Adams Street Not To Be Outdone," "Other Streets Also Busy."
Cases involving the sale of property to colored people are being vigorously pushed, by the white property owners, and it is reported that Justice Hoehling has fixed March 10, as the date for commencing the trial of a case involving the sale of land at 69 Seaton Place, N. W., where fraud has been charged.
James A. Cobb, attorney for the N. A. A. C. P. in the segregation case coming before the U. S. Supreme Court, reports that the white segregationists of Washington are closely watching the movements of the N. A. A. C. P. and are publishing in the North Capitol Citizen accounts of what the N. A. A. C. P. is doing in exposition to their movement.

No Question of Color Line in The CitySchools
No Question of Color Line in The CitySchools
Cleveland, Ohio, March 6.—Race and color play no part in the classification of pupils in the public schools of this city, asserted Superintendent of Schools R. G. Jones in explaining to a meeting of the Mt. Zion forum last week the new school questionnaires on which the pupils were requested to state their race and color. The information was sought, Mr. Jones added, for a Jewish organization, which had requested it. The cards would be destroyed, he said, to "avoid any misunderstanding" and information of that type would be sought in the future without the use of names. In reply to a direct question, Superintendent Jones stated that neither pupils nor teachers of the Race were discriminated against in the public schools of this city.

Community Social Club Organizer Speaks to Large Gathering in New York.
New York, March 6.—A large gathering of our group in the Masonic temple at 719 E. 21th St. were told on Friday night, Feb. 27, that they should take advantage in America of "the best opportunities the Race has ever been offered."
The speaker was John B. Ford, Pullman porter and philosopher, who became prominent when he delivered a lecture a year ago before the students of Dartmouth college.
Ford's subject was "Try Your Wings." He advised his auditors not to sleep "over your rights and privileges."
The Pullman Porter's band, under the direction of Lieutenant Porter, provided a musical program.
At the beginning of his address Ford directed his remarks to the Pullman porters. Some suggestions Ford made to the audience in general were:
"Have nothing against any nation or person on account of race, creed or color.
"Have nothing against any race on account of its religion, because the Constitution of the United States allows any person the right to have any religion he desires. If a man has no religion, I would not hold that against him.
"Whatever your occupation may be, make good or make room.
"Give to the world the best you have and the best will come back to you.
"We must be producers and not consumers."
Ford spoke under the auspices of the Community Social club, which he helped organize last August.

Reveal Facts in The Kingston Murder Mystery
Elmer Douglas, convicted of murdering George Kingston, in his confession stated that the killing was the result of an altercation over money that Kingston owed him. Douglas stated that he and Kingston had been selling vegetables together, and on numerous occasions Kingston had cheated him out of his share of the profits. On the morning of the murder Kingston and Douglas met at the breakfast table and a heated argument ensued. As the two men left for their work, Douglas, fearing Kingston and knowing him to be the possessor of a gun, went into a trunk of another roomer at the Kingston home and took with him the gun which he alleged was the one used in shooting Kingston some distance from the house.
Medical World Praises Colored Surgeon's Skill
New York, Mar. 6.—Two colored surgeons of Harlem performed an operation on a young high school student, Lois Wilson, colored, that is said to have no parallel in the annals of New York medical history.
The girl was troubled with an extremely dangerous infection in her ear which required a very delicate and skillful operation. Drs. Pete Murray and Paul Collins, attendants of the Wiley Wilson Sanitarium, were called in in the crisis. The men executed an operation that would have destroyed the tiny spark of life with the slightest blunder. Sixty minutes after the crucial operation the patient was pronounced safe. The operation was lauded by all of the medical profession in Gotham.
Porters, Waiters Club Entertains "Dandies"
Thursday night, Feb. 26, the Porters and Walters Club was the scene of a banquet in honor of the male members of the Chpcolate Dandies Co., given by E. Ashton and Bert Jones, managers of the club. The guests of honor were headed by Noble Sissile and Eubie Blake. The affair, which took place after the show, was admirably handled by the hosts. The guests numbered 42. Alec Irving acted as Master of Ceremonies and toastmaster. A delightful menu was offered the guests, consisting of chicken a la king, French fried potatoes, lettuce and tomato salad, rolls, coffee and plenty of smokes. Glover Shull welcomed the guests and introduced "Billy" B. Black, old time showman of Minneapolis, who made a lively and interesting talk. Among the show boys who responded were W. H. Hahn, bass singer extraordinary, Eubie Blake, tickler of ivories supreme, Noble Sissile with the personality that leaps across the footlights, and others.
Especially interesting and helpful was the talk of Noble Sissle, a story of his struggle to obtain the position he holds in the amusement world, a story which will prove an inspiration to the coming men and women of the race. The banquet lasted into the early hours; it was enjoyed by the guests, and most of all by the members of the club and citizens of all classes who gathered to do proper honor to both the food and the guests.
KIDNAPPING STORY IS JUST ONE OF HER JOKES

CAL COOLIDGE RENEWS OATH AS PRESIDENT
President Is Sworn In as Thousands of Spectators Jam Square.
Washington, March 4.—In a brilliant but unpretentious pageant, Pres. Coolidge today renewed his oath as 30th president of the United States. Standing upon the steps of the capitol, the president affirmed his pledge of office and then laid down a threefold program for his administration—economy, tax reduction and co-operation with the nations of the world. Bareheaded in the chill March breeze Chief Justice Taft, himself a former president, now garbed in the black robes of his judicial office, stood beside him and administered the oath.
The president placed his right hand upon the Bible which his mother read to him as a child and pledged himself again to defend the constitution and the nation.
Heard by Millions.
Immediately after the oath, the president began his inauguration address. His unstressed words leaped out through a microphone before him to all over the nation through 25 radio stations. For the first time in the history of the nation an inauguration ceremony was broadcast to millions of absent spectators. Thirty thousand people jammed the capitol square where presidents of history have launched their administrations.
Inaugural Message.
Text of Inaugural Message by the President. Delivered after taking oath of office from the east portico of the capitol.
My Countrymen:
No one can contemplate current conditions without finding much that is satisfying and still more that is encouraging. Our own country is leading the world in the general readjustment to the results of the great conflict. Many of its burdens will bear heavily upon us for years, and the secondary and indirect effects we must expect to experience for some time. But we are beginning to comprehend more definitely what course should be pursued, what remedies ought to be applied, what actions should be taken for our deliverance, and are clearly manifesting a determined will faithfully and conscientiously to adopt these methods of relief.
I favor the policy of economy, not because I wish to save money, but because I wish to save people. The men and women of this country who toil are the ones who bear the cost of the government. Every dollar that we carelessly waste means that their life will be so much the more meager. Every dollar that we prudently save means that their life will be so much more abundant. Economy is idealism in its most practical form.
These are some of the principles which America represents. We have not by any means put them fully into practice, but we have strongly signified our belief in them. The encouraging feature of our country is not that it has reached its destination, but that it has overwhelmingly expressed its determination to proceed in the right direction. It is true that we could, with profit, be less sectional and more national in our thought. It would be well if we could replace much that is only a false and ignorant prejudice with a true and enlightened pride of race. But the last election showed that appeals to class and nationality had little effect. We were all found loyal to a common citizenship. The fundamental precept of liberty is toleration. We can not permit any inquisition either within or without the law or apply any religious test to the holding of

A PRESIDENT'S INAUGURAL MESSAGES
A regular address, following the simple ceremony by Chief Justice Taft, to uphold the United States and perform such duties, decisive by that document, is remarkable. In unmistakable language Mr. Coolidge the majority of his countrymen from the judging, and he states it well. His knowledges, aspirations and hopes, reveals a man of mensmanship seldom equaled by his predicte doctrine seeks to keep the Ship of Jonathan shallow. He makes clear his will for foreign nations through a "World Court of even-handed justice between nations," general political philosophy, he vigorously of party government; division of power of the courts and majority rule,iment ownership and radical constitution; selected the latter proposition in unmistakable economy for the purpose of a reduction the heavy burden imposed by war war for the past eight years.
First time in the history of the Republic, citizenship that was conferred upon the committed reference to groups, by ignoring them as Americans only. That takes, since the votes that swept him inns without special label as to groups on the ballot. It clearly shows that the President with his fellow citizens from the color or creed, and this fact is quite gruesome who takes an opposing view of the keeping pace with the progressive current regation, in one breath and upholds it will fare well under the Coolidge admired. The President must be allowed surges. However, he is not unmindful of the negation that exists in the administrative at Washington.
Faith in both Mr. Coolidge and General was indicative of a man of deeds, epigenetic economist that he is by the absence of unusual thing for a lawyer trained in the arts.
THE PRESIDENT'S INAUGURAL MESSAGE
The inaugural address, following the simple ceremony of his oath, administered by Chief Justice Taft, to uphold the Constitution of the United States and perform such duties that devolve upon the executive by that document, is remarkable for its clarity and brevity. In unmistakable language Mr. Coolidge states the case of a large majority of his countrymen from the standpoint of his understanding, and he states it well. His knowledge of the country's needs, aspirations and hopes, reveals a mastery of constructive statesmanship seldom equaled by his predecessors.
The Coolidge doctrine seeks to keep the Ship of State in deep water rather than shallow. He makes clear his willingness to cooperate with foreign nations through a "World Court" for the administration of even-handed justice between nation and nation. Outlining his general political philosophy, he vigorously defended the principles of party government; division of powers, party responsibility, power of the courts and majority rule, while he condemned government ownership and radical constitutional changes. The people rejected the latter proposition in unmistakable number. He stands for rigid economy for the purpose of a reduction of taxes that will lighten the heavy burden imposed by war which the people have borne for the past eight years.
For the first time in the history of the Republican party, and the right of citizenship that was conferred upon the Negro, President Coolidge omitted reference to groups, by ignoring the hyphenates and recognizing them as Americans only. That is a broad and sane view to fake, since the votes that swept him into office were cast by citizens without special label as to groups or racial origin attached to the ballot. It clearly shows that the President does not intend to deal with his fellow citizens from the narrow standpoint of race, color or creed, and this fact is quite gratifying.
The Negro who takes an opposing view of the Coolidge attitude is not keeping pace with the progressive current of thought. He fights segregation in one breath and upholds it in the next. That the race will fare well under the Coolidge administration remains to be seen. The President must be allowed sufficient time to get his bearings. However, he is not unmindful of the fearful condition of segregation that exists in the administrative department of the government at Washington.
We have faith in both Mr. Coolidge and General Dawes. As a state paper it was indicative of a man of deeds, epigrammatic, evidencing the economist that he is by the absence of unnecessary verbiage, an unusual thing for a lawyer trained in the use of unnecessary words.
VICE-PRESIDENT DAWES
Chas. G. Dawes in his address, after his resident of the United States, gave the senator a revision of the rules that govern the ceremony of presenting new senators of four. Dawes demanded that they sit at once. Abuse of the Senate has been arbitrary and of legislation. Senators have considerable importance; have wasted time by filibusterism of defeating legislation demanded by a moderate Speaker Reed, a man of the Dawes of Czar because he had the backbone present whether the members were in the run. Reed broke the ring of their dilators. Dawes is not strong on "senatorial cohesion the senators that they are servants of all they survey. The shameful waste the Senate into a court of inquisition by which likely be repeated under the regime of The Vice-President will enliven the pet of the Senate by rough shod methods as a business man—a man of action—people's business in the same manner to private affairs in order to ensure success, shakeup. The business of the country does story telling in cloak rooms as has been at the people's expense.
General Chas. G. Dawes in his address, after being sworn in as Vice-President of the United States, gave the senators a shock by threatening a revision of the rules that govern the Senate. He abolished the ceremony of presenting new senators before the dais in squads of four. Dawes demanded that they should all present themselves at once.
The attitude of the Senate has been arbitrary and not to the best interest of legislation. Senators have considered themselves of great importance; have wasted time by filibustering tactics for the purpose of defeating legislation demanded by a majority of the people. The late Speaker Reed, a man of the Dawes type, earned the sobriquet of Czar because he had the backbone to count a quorum as present whether the members were in their seats or in the cloak room. Reed broke the ring of their dilatory practices.
General Dawes is not strong on "senatorial courtesy." He promises to show the senators that they are servants of the people and not lords of all they survey. The shameful waste of time spent in turning the Senate into a court of inquisition by the late Congress will not likely be repeated under the regime of the new administration. The Vice-President will enliven the position of presiding officer of the Senate by rough shod methods if necessary. Dawes is a business man—a man of action—and means to handle the people's business in the same manner that he would handle his private affairs in order to ensure success. The Senate is due for a shakeup. The business of the country demands legislation and not story telling in cloak rooms as has been indulged by time servers at the people's expense.

One of the gravest problems that must be dealt with is that of training and instructing the mind of the child. Modern science has developed practical methods that are helpful, but not always effective. The fact is the individual child varies in temperament, aptitude and physical qualifications. Oversensitiveness, often manifested by the Negro child attending mixed schools of the North, where the majority of pupils are of the Caucasian race, is responsible to some degree and in some instances for a nervous disturbance
that may be responsible for lack of mental functioning. This fact creates a fear that will grow unless timely measures are taken for its eradication to proportions that will affect the entire nervous and physical condition of the child.
Environment is also a factor to be considered both in the home and class room. Parents should show an interest in the "home work" of the child and assist in such work without causing the child to become a dependent upon others for results. This can be done if the parent is tactful. The teacher to obtain the best results should radiate patience and have a love for the work. This will be reflected by unusual effort on the part of the pupil. There must be an incentive. The incentive is provided by the influence of the home, of the school and the general tone of the pupils, for they all vary.
The power of sustained intellectual effort and attention depends upon physical factors, and not only varies according to the individual, but also varies in the same individual during different periods of life. It by no means corresponds with the growth of the bodily framework, but is really dependent on the internal organs of the body, such as heart, lungs, brain and nervous system, whose precosity or delay in development determines the date of manifestation of the fuller powers we call adolescence. It is comparatively easy to measure both mental and physical attainments; it is difficult, however, to measure capacity for either physical or intellectual work. In spite of examinations and class markings in registers, there is no recognized standard for measuring physical or mental vigor of children and the causes why particular children surpass or fall below an average. We judge children's powers by their age and height. Both are misleading, for adolescence varies. For this reason it is difficult to decide whether a given pupil is putting forth adequate, inadequate or excessive effort. We would advise both student and parent to give the matter consideration.
If the student is not making the grade there is a reason for it. Self-analysis may point out the flaw; then seek to remedy it. By no means depreciate your ability through any thought of inferiority. Your color was given to you by your Creator—in whose image you are—and you are the descendant of an honorable and historical race, whose civilization and cultivation antedate that of any other race of mankind on earth. Therefore take heart, have courage and rejoice in your being.
The parent, instead of reprimanding the backward student, should offer encouragement, manifested by love and affection. It has in some cases proven beneficial to take the student out of school for a time, especially where there are evidences of undue fatigue. By that we mean the fatigue which affects the emotionalism of the pupil and results in loss of control over features, limbs; inattention, stupidity and dullness, occurring in excitable children. There should be the proper balance in the way intended by nature. Fatigue is the accompaniment of effort. It is nature's warning that energies, though not exhausted, are diminishing, and tells us that steps should be taken to secure recuperation by rest from activity.
There is no dishonor through failure in school work as long as there remains an ambition to succeed. The school life of some of the world's most brilliant scholars was characterized by seeming failure. To apply the simple jingle: "Try, try again" will bring renewed effort and determination to the student.
The Bulletin-Appeal has a kindly and sympathetic interest in every student that aspires to partake of the golden fruit from the tree of knowledge. "Out on the intellectual sea there is room for every sail."

Then there came an evening, when searching for one of her children that had been stolen and sold, she found herself without a resting place for the night. A Quaker family, however, gave her lodging. She made her way to New York City, joined the Methodist Church, and worked hard to improve her condition.

By tact and her gift of song, her fervor, pathos and faith, she won friends to the anti-slavery cause where her lack of eloquence failed.
She lived a long and useful life and belonged to a distinct epoch in the country's history, one in which the rights of the Negro and the rights of women in general were frequently discussed from the same platform, and she passed—so far as her greatest influence was concerned—with her epoch. Late in life she was a frequent contributor to the press, and her articles pertaining to the advancement of the race were always interesting.
If this earnest woman without educational advantages could accomplish the things that she did for the good of her race, what obstacle can deter the present generation from achieving a much greater success for the same cause?

THE NORTHWESTERN-BULLSTIN APPMAL
HOSTESS LATEST BARBER SHOP JOB
Smoothes Away Embarrassments for Women.
New York.—For the first time in history, barber shops have hostesses. These directors of hirsute traffic suggest type of hairdressing, smooth away the embarrassment which many women feel in seeking a male barbers' advice as to collures and assist patrons in spending their money.
This development was inaugurated by a department store which for years maintained its place of business on Sixth avenue and was somewhat removed from the Fifth avenue trade. Now the concern has a Fifth avenue shop and has hired hostesses for its barber shop to make patrons feel at home in the new surroundings.
Duties of the Hostesses.
Strange it is, but true, that many of the newer comers to this country find more difficulty in spending their money than in getting it. New York is full of newly rich people of foreign birth. With increasing prosperity the women of these families have found that the old standards of attractiveness which appealed to the men in other countries are obsolete here and they are determined to live up to improved conditions. Hence the bob, the barber and the hostess.
The hostesses of the present-day shops are counted on to help them. Most of the hostesses employed by the smart shops today are of certain age. But all are shining examples of preservation. Young women are not sought, but a woman of fifty who still has attractive hair, although it may be white, a fresh skin and a figure can usually obtain such a position. Her chances are enhanced if she speaks one or more foreign languages. For the cashiers of the women's barber shops cash more checks signed with "his mark" than any institution except dealers in foreign exchange. In the men's shop a barber who will not talk is at a premium; but in the women's hairdressing establishment a barber who cannot talk interestingly has but a brief time between himself and separation from the payroll.
Other Shops Adopt Plan.
The so-called exclusive shops for women's clothing just off Fifth avenue also have taken the hostess to their payrolls. To earn the weekly salary check it is necessary for these women not only to wear clothes well but to talk them well. One shop is so exclusive that it sells nothing for cash. Before one may buy a sample of its products, it is necessary to establish an account for $1,500.
For many years this shop has never sold a model for less than $250 but recently it has established a department on an upper floor where those who do not feel equal to purchases at that rate occasionally can buy a dress as low as $00. That, however, is the irreducible minimum, as the hostess will tell you.
Buried City Revealed
Los Angeles.—Far back in the untraveled recesses of Nevada a new buried city has been discovered, one which will probably prove among the greatest archeological finds in North American history, according to Gov. James G. Scrugham of Nevada.
Governor Scrugham visited the little town of St. Thomas, Nev., nearest village to the ruins, after conferring here with Governor Hunt of Arizona regarding construction of a road from the Grand Canyon of Arizona to the new discovery.
"We believe we are about to open up the largest pueblo ever found on this continent," Governor Scrugham said. "The ruins seem to stretch for six miles, 50 feet or so above the high water mark of the river. They are about a mile wide. The town's population was probably 15,000.
"Thus far, we have excavated 40 houses and 11 bodies, 10 of them women. Ancient pottery, estimated 2,000 years old, was found with the remains. "Walls of the houses were of adobe, plastered on woven rushes. The clay still retains the mold of tule leaves. The floors were paved with stones. "Necklaces of carved turquoise were found on the women. The jewels were highly polished and shaped like grains of corn. We found squash and corn seed in vases and jars of rude pottery."
Swedish Prison Made Into National Museum
Stockholm.—Oestermalm prison, one of the oldest prisons in Stockholm, recently abandoned for purposes of criminal confinement, is now being turned into a historical museum and depository for the royal archives. Priceless documents now are filed on shelves in the former cells; relics of the Stone age of Sweden are set up in the courtyard where the prisoners once were given their exercise, and fine specimens of church furniture and decoration, together with historical treasures from all ages and from nearly every country in Europe, are on display in the larger halls.
The most, interesting part of the collection in the Oestermalm building is an exhibit of skeletons of some of the 1,800 Swedes who tell in the defense of Visby against the raider Valdemar Attterdag nearly 600 years ago. Many of the skulls and bones are still inclosed in chain mall, which is remarkably well preserved, and archeologists are showing keen interest in these skeletons in armor.

DYER BILL DEAD IN
PRESENT CONGRESS
New York, (N. A. A. C. P.)—James Weldon Johnson, today returned from Washington, where he conferred with leaders in both Houses of Congress on the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill.
"As is known, nothing further will be done about the Bill in the present Congress, but the plans are to introduce the Bill in the 69th Congress simultaneously in both houses. This will increase the probability of final passage.
"The greater effort will be centered upon getting the Bill through the Senate. If the Bill can be passed in the Senate, there is little or no doubt that it will be passed in the House.
"The N. A. A. C. P. will continue unremittingly the fight it has been making for upwards of five years to have this Bill enacted into the law of the United States."
JACK JOHNSON REFUSES
TO BE BRIDED BY STOKES
John Arthur (Jack) Johnson, formerly the Heavy Weight Champion of the World, was placed on the witness stand in Chicago to testify as a state witness in the Stokes divorce case. He alleged that two colored persons, one Robert Lee of Chicago and a Mrs. Hattie Johnson of New York had approached him with an offer of some "good money" if he would testify falsely in a conspiracy to defame the estranged wife of the New York multi-millionaire.
He said that he told Mrs. Johnson that he would not testify in court against a woman even if he had known Mrs. Stokes.
The attorney subjected Johnson to a severe cross-examination in which he said that he was unable to give definite dates for his alleged interviews.

AMUSEMENT NOTES
The recent joint ball of the Twin Cities was a great success and is due to be repeated in St. Paul in the near future. Watch the Bulletin-Apeal. The Lions held their first dance Monday at the South Side. A nice crowd attended. At O. K. Hall Wednesday evening the Sterling Nonparell Club (the Short Neck Boys) held forth at their weekly dance. Funny; one of these boys, Sonny Pickett, has always been slighted by the reporter who covers the dances, so we had to mention his name this time. It is said that the K. of P.'s are planning another one of their annual Easter Balls. If you want to draw the crowds to your dances and entertainments, advertise in the Bulletin-Apeal. Ask any one who knows.
The Strutters held their first annual dance of the year at Elks' Hall Friday, March 6.
Dick Hudson's American All-star fast basketball five, who defeated the 151st Artillery basketball quint recently, will play in Milwaukee next week.
Some Mill City sport pickups: Charles Reil, champion all-round athlete of the city high schools, who was injured several weeks ago in basketball practice, has returned to the line-up of the Central High School quint and has starred in both games. Reid's presence and playing in the last two games made it possible for Central High to tie North High for the city championship. Charles is the son of Mr. and Mrs. E. L. Boyd, 2538 Chicago Ave.
The Minneapolis Red Sox, formerly the Askin & Marine Red Sox, managed by Bill Brooks, are prepairing for their spring training. The Sox have several big games on their home schedule that will be played at Nicollet Park.
The genial and beaming Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion of the world, was in the city to fill a theatrical engagement last week. He was chaperoned around the two towns by Hamlet (Kid). Rowe, the man who with Charles Sumner Smith forced the Minnesota Boxing Commission to rescind its action barring mixed bouts in this state. Jack looked like the proverbial million dollars, and Charles Johnson, sports editor of the Minneapolis Daily Star, remarked in his columns last Saturday that "John Arthur" would give the present crop of heavyweight contenders a run for their money any time. We agree with him.
"The Village Follies" At 7th Street Theater
"The Village Follies," a small town revue, in which Erma and Lucille Iverson, clever juvenile singers and dancers are featured, will top next week's all comedy bill at the Seventh Street theater. The act purports to be the weekly rehearsale of the village silver cornet band in the schoolhouse. In the midst of proceedings, the Iverson sisters wander in and entertain the musicians.
Other turns include Taylor, Lake and Ryan, in what is programmed as a "Somewhat Different Revue"; The "Sunset Four," a quartette of Negro singers, comedians and eccentric dancers; "Nep" Scoville and company in "Pinched," a comedy playlet, the scene of which is laid in municipal court; Henry Sylvester and Malda Vance, comedians and singers; and "Prince Leo," the educated pony. "Buck" Jones in "The Man Who Played Square" will be the photoplay attraction.

"HELP YOURSELF" HOTEL IS A SUCCESS
Guests Select Own Room and Drop Pay in Box.
Pearsalil, Tex.-In this town is a "help yourself" hotel. This hostelry has been in successful operation two years. It is owned by H. L. Brooks, sheriff and tax collector of the county. Mr. Brooks is so well pleased with his experiment of running a hotel on the honesty of his guests that he plans to add more rooms to accommodate the growing list of visitors. Brooks seldom goes about the hotel. He unlocks the box where the guests have deposited their money for rooms once every week or so. The housekeeping, such as making beds and cleaning rooms, is done by a servant. The hotel is convenient to the business section of the town. It is an attractive building and the rooms are large and well fitted.
On entering the lobby the guests at once see the rules and regulations hanging on the wall. First is the book where the name of the guest and the number of the room he takes are registered. Then on the wall is a small blackboard, on which is a list of numbers of the occupied rooms and the unoccupied rooms. When a guest takes a room he erases it from the list of unoccupied rooms and writes the number of the room with the list of the occupied.
On the table is a container holding envelopes. Each guest takes an envelope and writes the number of his room on it, places the money he owes for the room in it and seals it, then, before leaving the hotel, drops it in a lock box on the table.
Oftentimes, Mr. Brooks says, he gets letter from persons who have stayed at his hotel saying how they enjoyed being a guest in such a unique hotel. He also says that he has been cheated out of only $2.
Predicts Man Will Lose
Boston.—Man will lose many, if not all, his teeth, he will be absolutely hairless and he undoubtedly will lose certain toes and fingers. These predictions are based on scientific study by E. E. Raymond, professor of paleontology and geology at Harvard university. These changes will not come until man has passed through a series of evolutionary phases, which probably will cover 40,000 to 75,000 years, according to Professor Raymond. He predicts heightening and broadening of the forehead and enlarging of the skull for bigger brain and longer face.
"The future man," he said, "is as certain to lose his teeth as the ape man of the past lost his tail. The ape man used his teeth to tear sinews, break nuts and as weapons of offense in fighting. Civilization has done away with these conditions.
"Hair is a defense given by nature against cold. Civilization gave man coats and artificial coverings. Baldness is on the increase, while it probably never existed on ancient man. In 40,000 years man may be as bald as a billiard ball.
"That man will lose certain fingers and toes also seem to be a biological certainty. When man climbed trees to escape from animals his toes were needed to give him footholds. Now they are quite useless. The shape of the human skull and man's erect position are designed to promote an increase in the size and weight of the brain."
Yank Forbids Samoans
Apla, Samoa.—The title of "tulmanu'a" of the Manua district of American Samoa has been prohibited by the governor, Capt. Edward S. Kellogg, United States navy.
Manuans who claim the right to bestow the title are aggrieved.
The governor explained he would not allow the title to be held for the reason that it was equivalent to a kingship, and under the American government there could be no king.
A large number of Samoan titles are designated at "tui." The word is Tongan, introduced into the Samoan language. A dictionary of the Samoan language defines it is "high chief" or "king." But the Samoan word for king is "tupu."
A tulmanu'a does not exercise any political power, but his person is considered sacred and he commands the highest respect.
Washington, D. C.—Dinosaur tracks made approximately 10,000,000 years ago, during the Triassic age, probably the first footprints of this geological period found in the Rocky mountains area, have been identified on the Navajo Indian reservation in Arizona, near the Grand Canyon National park.
An announcement by the Interior department recently said the tracks occur in a thin layer of rocks about seven miles from Tuba City. The footprints measure 16 inches in length with a spread of 18 inches. The stride is shown to be 58 inches. The toes bore sharp claws, indicating the animals belonged to the bipedal carnivorous dinosauria.
Washington, D. C. — Killimanjaro mountain of Tanganyika territory, which has been the object of a recent expedition, is one of the most notable "violent contrasts" in Africa, sometimes termed the continent of "violent contrasts."
"Although Africa spreads itself to both temperate zones," says a bulletin of the National Geographic society, "by whim of geography its only notable snow peaks are under the sun's most direct glare and, of its 'high spots' near the Equator, Killimanjaro is chief."
"Killmanjaro was unknown to the world a century ago, and unscaled until 1889, but now a railway from Mombasa approaches its flank. In its way it affords Africa claim to the greatest mountain on the face of the earth. Everest, at 20,002 altitude is almost 10,000 feet higher than Killmanjaro; there are even peaks having similar volcanic origin rising higher in South and Central America, but all of those great ones rise on the backs of their neighbors. Killmanjaro stands alone in the heat-scorched wind-swept plain. Without even the company of a mountain ridge it rises solitary from a plateau at 2,500 to 4,000 feet to the snow-capped majesty of 19,819 feet.
"Europe is proud of its Alps and Pyrenees and the United States considers the Rockies mighty mountains, yet Killmanjaro is nearly a mile higher than Mt. Whitney, America's tallest peak. It is almost 4,000 feet higher than Mt. Blanc, Europe's leading summit. Killmanjaro has for company on the equator Mt. Kenya, just over the border, giving its name to Kenya colony and the Mountains of the Moon, officially Ruwenzorl, in Uganda, feeding the White Nile with water for Egypt.
"Natives inhabiting the slopes of Killimanjaro have the legend that the mountain has a silver peak. To tribes who have never seen snow, this seemed the most satisfactory explanation for the gleaming white cap. They associated it with their gods, and the first white men to explore it had great difficulty satisfying the natives that they would not drive away Rayll, the god in the form of a giant cow inhabiting the mountain's high plains.
"The mountain is a small world in itself, or more properly half a world. The snow cap is its polar cap; the high, cold ridges, without vegetation, are like Labrador or the Alaskan steppe, but instead of borhoring reindeer, they support flocks of eland. The mountain is a game preserve and the flocks thrive.
"Next comes a belt of heather similar to that of the Scotch highlands. Then the elevation drops, the region of heavy precipitation appears and with it the rain-forest, almost constantly swathed in mist. This thins to the ordinary tropical forest and then dwindles to the mountain's 'temperate zone,' where the tribesmen live. It is estimated 125,000 people now reside on the slopes of Kilimanjaro, and they are counted by some explorers among the most intelligent and progressive natives of Africa.
"The Chagga and other tribes even employ irrigation to grow their crops of bananas, sweet potatoes and grains. Sometimes they merely divert a mountain stream, but frequently considerable engineering skill is used to bring water through tubes or channels considerable distances. The forest belt, not Kilmanjaro's glaciers, supplies most of this life-giving water. The rain-forest is a vast sponge, drinking up the rain and squeezing it out in springs.
Shun Crater and Plain.
"Below the agricultural belt is the scorched dry plain. It is almost as impossible to get the natives to venture down to the hot plain as to get them to approach the ice-capped crater.
"Elephants inhabit the thick forests of Killmanjaro's slopes. Explorers often see their spoors on banks seemingly impossible for such huge animals to manage. One writer reports seeing marks indicating that the elephants thrust their tusks into the ground to steady themselves on a descent, and that scruffed bark showed that they wound their trunks about trees to help themselves up to higher positions."
Midget Sulu Chief
Wills Emiputian Beauty
Manila, Diki Diki, diminutive chieftain of the island of North Ubian, Sulu, after many disappointments in love, has finally won the affections of Ajaratol, also a illiptian, and the wedding will take place shortly at Jolo, capital of the province.
Diki Diki, is the most important man of the island, is 38 1/2 inches in height, while his fiancee is 3 inches shorter.
Ajaratol, who lives on the island of Usada, ten miles from North Ubian, is twenty-one, and has had many sultons for her hand. Diki Diki is fifty.
Maharajah Kiram, Diki Diki's chief rival for the affections of Ajaratol, is to be best man at the wedding, and Imam Ovil, another rival, is to perform the Mohammedan ceremony.
Some time ago, when the public school authorities gathered in all children of school age, Dikl Dikl was caught in the net. It was several months before his real age was discovered and he was released from school attendance. He declined, however, to quit school, and is now an ardent pupil in the second grade.

URBAN LEAGUE CONCERT AT NEIGHBORHOOD HOUSE
A solendid concert was given at the West Side Neighborhood House under the direction of Mr. Claude Jackson, the well-known tenor singer of the Twin Cities. Mr. Jackson was aby assisted by Mr. George Hamilton, Mrs. Hattie Oliver, Mrs. Mattie Rhodes and Mrs. George Hamilton. A good audience was in attendance, and expressed their appreciation by calling for repeated encores. The concert was given under the auspices of the St. Paul Urban League.
Omega Psi Phi To Honor
1916, to March 1917, Young was with the Punitive Expedition in Mexico. While there he realized that America would soon enter the European Conflict—in order that his race might serve not only as followers but as leaders in this conflict, Young established a school for the instruction of the enlisted men of his command in the face of the opposition of his superior officer.
Disappointed by failure on account of prejudice to be assigned to duty in France, heart-broken, but without a murmur against his government, without an outward sign of emotion he accepted the final report of the retiring board pronouncing him unfit for active service.
Then followed a brief period of service at Camp Grant, Illinois, and a reappointment as Military Attache to Liberia, in the performance of which duty he died on January 8, 1922 at Lagos, Southern Nigeria.

office. The mind of America must be forever free.
It is in such contemplations, my fellow countrymen, which are not exhaustive but only representative, that I find ample warrant for satisfaction and encouragement. We should not let the much that is to do obscure the much which has been done. The past and present show faith and hope and courage fully justified. Here stands our country, an example of tranquility of home, a patron of tranquility abroad. Here stands its government, aware of its might but obedient to its conscience. Here it will continue to stand, seeking peace and prosperity, collicitous for the welfare of the wage earner, promoting enterprise, developing waterways and natural resources, attention to the intuitive counsel of womanhood, encouraging education, desiring the advancement of religion, supporting the cause of justice and honor among the nations. America seeks no earthly empire built on blood and force. No ambition, no temptation, lures her to thought of foreign dominions. The legions which she sends forth are armed, not with the sword, but with the cross. The higher state to which she seeks the allegiance of all mankind is not of human, but of divine origin. She cherishes no purpose save to merit the favor of almighty God.
