LOUIS, Nov. 11.—Last Friday the daily papers carried front page stories of the finding of the mutilated body of Miss Edna Ellis, an eighteen-year-old typist, in a clump of weeds in a vacant lot in the northwestern part of this city. As usual, it was taken for granted that a Negro had committed the crime, the motive being criminal assault. This was the theory advanced by the police who at once set to work to arrest some Negro upon whom the crime might be fixed. Your correspondent overheard this significant remark from a rather staid and dignified self-respecting St. Louisian whose indignation was justly aroused by the box-car type headline, "Police Hunt Negro Seen Near Lot." I feel quite sure it will not shock readers of The Monitor many of whom doubtless have thought the same thing although they have not expressed it in the forcible language of this man. It was this: "Why in hell do the police always try to fix crimes of this character upon some Negro and give the criminal who, in nine cases out of ten, is some degenerate or criminal white, a chance to escape? This constant stigmatization of our race makes my blood boil and is enough to make a pious preacher cuss a blue streak, if it would do any good." Your correspondent would add, "them's my sentiments, too." But to the story. The body of Miss Ellis, who was a stenographer employed by the Bell Telephone company, was found Friday morning in a vacant lot at Garrison avenue and North Market street, her throat slashed with a razor and her hands and arms bearing slashes showing that the plucky girl had put up a desperate fight for her life. Several boys reported that they had seen a tall Negro loitering around the lot where the unfortunate girl's body had been found. Women in the vicinity also recalled seeing "a tall Negro" around the same place whose description tallied with that given by the five boys—Walter Dugan, aged 14; Henry Gerlich, 13; Howard McHenry and Chester Boenker, 16, and "Babe" Mackey, 7—all living in the immediate neighborhood. Mrs. Francis, who resides next to the Ellis home, volunteered the information that she had frequently seen a tall Negro loitering around the Ellis home. The information furnished by the boys and Mrs. Francis, taken in connection with the fact that a razor handle was found near the body strengthened the belief of the police that the crime was committed by a Negro, for whom a hunt was made and several suspects were taken into custody, but were subsequently released. Lieutenant O'Brien Suspicious One police official, at least, did not hold to the theory of his fellows. That was Lieutenant "Darby" O'Brien of the Davton street police station. He believed that the deed was that of a jealous suitor. Holding to this theory scouted by his fellow officers, Lieut. O'Brien asked the girl's mother if her THE MONITOR A NATIONAL WEEKLY NEWSPAPER DEVOTED TO THE INTERESTS OF COLORED AMERICANS THE REV. JOHN ALBEET WILLIAMS. Editor daughter had told her of any friends whose society she spurned. Mrs. Ellis immediately named Albert Ellis and told Lieut. O'Brien that she had forced him to leave her home some months ago after his engagement to Miss Edna Ellis had been broken. Mrs. Ellis told of her daughter's having returned her engagement ring. Confronted by Girl's Mother Confronted by Clyde Mackenzie. Lieut. O'Brien, in company with Sergt. Gartland and Officers Richardson and Ryan, went to the home of Ellis early Friday morning, but he was not in. They waited until he returned at 11 o'clock and then took him into custody. He was taken to the scene of the murder and called upon to view the body of the girl. He was confronted by the mother, who accused him of the crime. He stoutly denied it, however. Lieut. O'Brien worked upon the case for eighteen and one-half hours and near midnight Saturday surrendered the prisoner to Sergt. Martineau and Lieut. Gerk, who continued the questioning and finally obtained the confession from Ellis. Ellis Makes Confession Sunday morning Ellis, who bears the same name, but is no relation of his victim, made a confession of his crime which was subsequently reduced to writing and signed by him. He said that jealousy had prompted the murder and that he had intended to take his own life, but was prevented from doing so when the razor snapped as he slashed the throat of his victim for the third time. He made no attempt to lessen the magnitude of his crime and admitted that he had deliberately planned to murder the girl when convinced that there was no possibility of their marriage. Miss Ellis begged for mercy, Ellis said, but he ignored her plea and struck her in the face with his fists. She fell to the ground, but arose quickly to her feet and grappled with him. He reached into his vest pocket while holding her with his other hand and drew out the razor. She divined his intention and grasped the razor, pleading, "Oh, Al, don't cut me, please!" He said he wrested it from her, and as he did it opened, severely cutting her hands. He then held her at arms' length and, in the words of his confession, "slashed right and left until she fell to the ground." TWO REPRESENTATIVES ELECTED IN PENNSYLVANIA PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Nov. 11.

LOUIS ORGANIZES LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY (By the Associated Negro Press) ST. LOUISE, Mo., Nov. 11.—The Douglass Life Insurance company is now one of the strongest business ventures of the colored people in this city. This has been brought about by a big boosting campaign among the colored people themselves. Discrimination practiced by the white companies was the chief reason for the initiation of the campaign, although the need of giving practical encouragement to race business ventures also entered largely into the matter.

URBAN LEAGUE DISCUSSES (By the Associated Negro Press) NEW YORK, Nov. 11.—The race problem in industry furnished the topic of discussion at the opening session of the National Urban League here. Main points brought out by the men who addressed the league were: The necessity of better housing conditions; the desirability of using Negro foremen over Negro employees; the obstacles offered by overdeveloped race consciousness in the Negro, and the urgency of more frankness between Negro and white. LIFTING. LIFT, TOO! MICHIGAN GOVERNOR GRANTS EXTRADITION Strenuous Protests Given by N. A. A. C. P.—Fear of Lynching Causes Protest—Determine to Fight Extraction Through Court of Last Resort. SEEKING TO ESTABLISH NEEDED PRECEDENT Denial of Extradition to Southern States Which Grant No Protection to Colored Prisoners, But Virtually Hand Them Over to Mobs. NEW YORK, N. Y., Nov. 11.—Walter F. White, assistant secretary of the N. A. A. C. P., gave the following interview for the Associated Negro Press on the case of Tom Ray of Wilkinson county, Georgia, whose extradition to Georgia for trial on a charge of murder the association is fighting. Ray is at present in custody in the Wayne county jail, Detroit, Mich. "Tom Ray, in self-defense killed a white man named Faulkner," said Mr. White, "in Wilkinson county, Georgia, after Faulkner had several times made attempts on Ray's life. Ray escaped to Canada, later returning to Detroit, where he was arrested. "Governor Sleeper of Michigan granted extradition to the Georgia authorities for Ray, although the last Negro for whom he granted extradition was lynched twelve hours after he had arrived in Kentucky. "Attorneys Willis and Hinton and Attorney W. Hayes McKinney, acting for the Detroit branch of the N. A. A. C. P., immediately applied for a writ of habeas corpus. A hearing on this was held before Judge Hunt in Detroit Wednesday, October 13. Judge Hunt granted the writ, but Ray was immediately rearrested when Georgia officials wired that an indictment was being forwarded. "A new hearing was held before Governor Sleeper on the indictment on Wednesday, October 20. I testified at that time as an investigator of lynchings and as one of the compilers of "Thirty Years of Lynching," showing that if Ray were taken back to the state of Georgia he would not only fail to receive a fair trial, but would very probably be lynched immediately upon his return. "In spite of the facts presented, Governor Sleeper said he saw no reason why Ray should not be returned. The attorneys for Ray immediately applied for a new writ of habeas corpus and in the event that that fails the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will take the case to the federal court. "This case," said Mr. White in conclusion, "ought to be of especial interest to colored people of the United States as it may establish a precedent in the denial of extradition to southern states where Negroes accused of crime are lynched or denied justice." MISSOURI ELECTS FIRST LEGISLATOR ST. LOUIS, Mo., Nov. 11.—In the landslide Tuesday, Missouri elected her first colored man to the general assembly.

Williams Hampton, Va., Nov. 11—Under clear skies and a football day made to order, the Hampton Institute eleven defeated Petersburg on Saturday, October 30, in a hard-fought battle on the Petersburg gridiron. The stage was all set for a Petersburg victory. The grave was dug for an appropriate "burial," but it was Hampton that finally performed the ceremony. After the Seadiders' defeat by Shaw, the Petersburg enthusiasts thought it only remained for them to count the touchdowns, but their hopes were soon blasted, for within four minutes after the kickoff, Rigney crossed the Petersburg goal line for the first touchdown. This feat so dazed the Petersburg team that, before its complete recovery, Northern slipped through their jine for the second touchdown. Petersburg in the last half showed fighting spirit. In an effort to score they tried drop-kicking and forward-passing time after time, but to no avail. The Petersburg students plead for a touchdown in the last minutes of play, but the defensive work of Hampton's line killed all hopes, and they had to content themselves to wait another twelve months. The game was well played. Sportsmanlike spirit prevailed. Touchdown: Rigney and Northern. Officials: Wilson, referee; Bacon, umpire; Scott, linesman. Time of quarters: 15 minutes. The lineup: Petersburg—Nicholas( captain), left end; Tyler, left tackle; Jefferson, left guard; Thrift, center; Pettie, right guard; Lee, right tackle; Turner and Coates, right end; L. Turner, quarterback; Poindexter, left halfback; Brown, right halfback; Spratley, fullback. Hampton—Watley, left end; Banks, left tackle; Thompson and Smothers, left guard; Gayle, center; Coleman, right guard; Bradby, right tackle; Wright, right-end; Northern and Temple, quarterback; Roseboro, left halfback; Wood (captain), right halfback; Rigney, fullback. ATLANTA UNIVERSITY The Atlanta University fighting eleven made a good and promising showing in the initial game of the season of the university gridiron on Saturday, October 30. The contest was staged with Talladega College and, although outweighed by at least fifty pounds, the warriors of the Crimson and Gray held their own admirably and determinedly against the onslaughts of a team obviously better trained and balanced. The fighters from Alabama presented a very imposing appearance; men of uniform size and weight, attired in new togs, with first-class equipment and much knowledge of "tactics" and formations, and a superabundant confidence in their superior technical skill. The men of the university—just football players, antiquated togs, some without kickings—a few "bright lights" perhaps, but mostly contestants in straight football, entered the game with a considerable handicap. The game began. The Alabama eleven kicked off. Atlanta, receiving the kick, fumbled. Talladega scooped.

It was henceforth a battle of force pitted against chronic determination. The spectators watched with growing anxiety the swaying of the teams between the goals. Not a man knocked out on the line, the Crimson and Gray failed to come back at least four times before abandoning the effort. The end of the first half revealed Atlanta's score, 2; Talladega's, 7. No further gains. The last half was a long and tedious grind. The closing moments were tense with anticipation as the dusty line of the Crimson and Gray intrenched near its goal. The score remained 7-2. The team is in a state of vigorous development and much may be expected of it in the game with Tuskegee on Friday, November 5; later with Morehouse, and in the ramining games of the season's schedule. ATLANTA UNIVERSITY Atlanta University Loses the Second Game of the Season to Tuskegee Institute Thursday. ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 11.—On the athletic field of the university Thursday afternoon the varsity eleven played the Tigers of Tuskegee Institute and lost to them, 12-0. Promptly at 3 o'clock the game began. The Tiger center kicked to Cade, the varsity quarterback, who returned thirty yards. After much fine play by both sides, a Tiger forward pass was downed on the goal line after having been missed by attempted interference. This was the first touchdown of the game. The Tigers, however, failed in the goal kick. In the remainder of the first and the beginning of the last half both sides did formation work in fine part. The varsity began the last half in first-class style. Leake, center, kicked to the Tigers' forty-five-yard line. The Tigers returned fifteen yards. The Tigers were driven upon their ten-yard line when a monstrosity was unearthed in the form of a "mole" who dug steadily through the center of the varsity line. When the Tigers had bored to within thirty-five yards of the goal, a long forward pass of thirty yards, executed under very unavoidable circumstances, was missed by a Tiger outpost. The ball passed to the varsity. John Cade made, in these critical moments, the most spectacular end run of the game. Outrunning his interference and outmaneuvering the greater part of the enemy, stiff arming one Tiger for ten yards across the field, he gained ten yards before being downed. The Tigers gained the ball. They made twenty yards by a fake kick formation before the ball was downed by Long, the varsity left half. This move placed them within seven yards of the goal. Because of the unsteadiness of the varsity at this point, the Tigers were enabled to make another touchdown. Again, however, they failed in the goal kick. The success of the Tigers was due to their superiority in the technic of the game. It was a gruelling contest honestly and strenuously fought out by real sportsmen. The Tigers claim they're "better since they beat A. U." At any rate, we are well pleased with the varsity's development since the last game. A. BOHANNON. Rev. P. P. Palmer; vice president, J. B.

THE ASSOCIATED MICRO PRESS FIRST IN SERVICE Now that the democrats have been defeated by the largest popular vote ever cast in an election in the United States, and instead of a democratic majority in the national congress, which was their most earnest plea, the republicans gained overwhelming majorities in both houses, the democrats are casting about to see whom they can blame for their defeat. They boasted of having played their best card in putting forth Cox and Roosevelt. They claimed the better end of the argument on the League of Nations question on the ground that the people desired an international obligation such as the league imposed. The president had preached this and the democrats believed his personal influence would at least carry part of the west while the "solid south" would simply follow suit. But all of these calculations were completely upset by the tremendous republican majority. They were further surprised by the news that Tennessee, Missouri, Maryland and Oklahoma, all below the Mason and Dixon line, had gone over into the republican fold, besides West Virginia, a border state, and Ohio the home of Cox and the state of which he has been governor for three terms, went republican by large majorities. Further, they notice several towns in such southern states as Florida, Mississippi and Alabama going republican. In the face of all this, in the midst of their maze, they have been seeking a "goat." Some, such as our esteemed contemporary, the World-Herald, select Mr. Bryan as the one responsible for this disaster. They say his inactivity in the campaign on behalf of Cox brought about the party's defeat. Mr. Bryan, on the other hand, attributes the defeat to Mr. Wilson, who forced his League of Nations in the campaign as the most important issue and "solemnn referendum," and suggests that Mr. Wilson resign immediately in favor of Marshall. Others, still, attribute the result to poor management by the national committee. We know that all of these contributed something to the results of the election, but we by no means agree that these are the main causes. Democratic inefficiency, extravagance, waste, mismanagement and hypocrisy forced this most emphatic expression of the people's dissatisfaction at the same. The people were not willing to further intrust their living with novices and experimenters. Then there was the vote of the colored people. They, too, had suffered long enough from gross injustices and discrimination and expressed themselves most emphatically in this way. As to Mr. Bryan's inactivity in the campaign, we are inclined to find justification in his position. We do not believe any considerable element of even pro-Wilson democrats could have even expectd a different course from Mr. Bryan, in the face of the treatment given him at San Francisco. The pro-Wilson demos boasted of having buried Bryan so deep politically that he would not be able again to be resurrected. How could these same "malefactors" as Mr. Bryan elects to call them, expect his support for the ticket put forth by the hands of those who had thus crucified him? But there was a Jim Reed of Missouri, another victim of the San Francisco steam roller. This man was shamefully treated in the convention, not being allowed to take the seat to which he had been duly elected. Reed, although opposed to the Wilson autocracy and the League of Nations, was we believe, sincere and conscientious and very powerful in the politics of the democratic party which fact the demos overlooked. Both Reed's and Bryan's states went republican by the largest plurality ever recorded in the history of their states. Therefore, when feeling about for someone, or something on which to lay the blame for their defeat, we would advise the party to think on these things. WHO DID IT? VOX POPULI, VOX DEI "FOR the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it." The political campaign just closed was the most interesting from many standpoints, of any the nation has experienced in its history. The electorate in this instance was made judge and jury to decide the merits of a case of our foreign policy. They were called upon to pass on a "solemn referendum," on the League of Nations as Mr. Wilson brought it from Paris. The president placed the issue in the campaign refusing any reservations which changed the obligations set forth in the covenant. The senate to which the president had submitted the treaty had decided that unless that instrument was amended so as to leave unimpaired the national independence of the American government, and thereby serve our best interests at home, it could not be ratified. The president contended that this co-ordinate branch of the government had neither right nor authority to decide a question of foreign policy such as the treaty and the League of Nations made. Consequently he made two famous swings around the country, appealing to the people directly, to support him in his contention and force the senate to ratify the covenant. The people's mandate would be accepted as final. The senate in the meantime twice refused to ratify, and twice returned the document to the president. The president in turn forced the issue in the national campaign, making the people both judge and jury. Campaign orators of renown in both political parties plead in piercing tones for endorsement of their case, while the people, as judge and jury, sat in silence until these "lawyers" of "humanity" placed their case before them. On November 2 this popular court rose up in the strength of its own judgment and passed on the case. The result was the largest republican majority ever recorded in the history of the nation. Even the "solid south" cracked, and Tennessee, Oklahoma and Missouri fell over fish and feather into the republican fold. The people will not be fooled all the time. They know their needs and interests, and when they find these being juggled by those to whom they have entrusted them, they very soon, and emphatically, repudiate them. The voice of the people is the voice of God.

For all Americans it should be a cause of profound gratitude that guns were silenced on that day, for had it not been so hundreds of thousands of the flower of American manhood would have been slaughtered in the strife. For Americans of color, too, it is a day of profound significance; for our gallant sons had been marked for slaughter, the charge upon Metz, strongly fortified and deemed impregnable, had been planned. The Ninety-second division, composed of America's black soldiers, were to be used as shock troops. They were to lead the advance on Metz. White American troops were to follow them up. We know how great the slaughter would have been. The Ninety-second division would have been annihilated. Others would have met the same fate. But by that Providence that overrules the strife was stayed and saluighter ceased. Armistice Day should be kept as a day of thanksgiving to Almighty God for His goodness to the children of men. A GOODLY FELLOWSHIP WERE it true that President-elect Harding were of Negro ancestry he would find himself in a goodly fellowship. Men like Alexander Hamilton, John James Audubon, Alexander Dumas, Alexander Pushkin Frederick Douglas, Henry M. Tanner, S. Coleridge Taylor, Stanley C. Braithwaite, Charles W. Chestnut, Benjamin Bannekar, Dr. Daniel Williams and Alexander Crummell, just to mention a few of the immortals of Negro blood and ancestry, who have risen to eminence constitute a goodly fellowship to which one should esteem it an honor and privilege to be admitted. None of these were or are either intellectual or moral weaklings, but men of renown to whom the world pays tribute. SNYCOPATED SPASMS EVERY once in a while you hear a man or woman say something about refinement and if you ask eight out of ten folks what he or she is talking about, they will tell you that it is some sort of Greek or Latin word that nobody pays much attention to these days. The latter part of this sermon is all right, but the former is all to the ragged. The word is not Greek or Latin, but good old fashioned English. Refinement means smoothing down the rough spots and varnishing up a little. It means getting a strangle hold upon our roughneck proclivities and allow our gentle nature to take a peep at the world without getting scared. Many people imagine that if they tried to be refined, the general public would take them for an easy mark and start handing them the hot and heavy. Such an idea is as moth eaten as an ancient disposition. The truth is just the opposite. The more refined a dude or dudess is, the easier time he or she is going to have going through this ping pong world. A refined person can go a heap more places than a person with a buzz-saw temperament and do a lot more things that are impossible for a human onion with a megaphone mouth. Even a lion pauses to wonder when he meets up with a bunch of refinement. He is just like the public. Refinement is so Macon's Cafe and H NOW Home Cooking. Attractive Su If you try us once, you'll W.

You can take it in teapoonful doses, pill form or you can swallow it by the gallon. It is safe and non-poisonous.

Among the important changes made were fixing the date of the annual council the third Wednesday in January instead of the third Wednesday in May; appointing an executive council upon which is placed an important responsibility in the administration of diocesan business, and increasing the lay representation from missions to the annual council from one to two.

A TRIUMPH OF THE SCREEN colored Photoplay Makes Hit With Omaha Movie Goers—Thousands Witness Play and Were Satisfied. Thousands of Omaha's movie fans were treated to Micheaux's new screen production, staged by an exclusive colored cast, in three runs at the Diamond theatre, Twenty-fourth and Lake streets, ending November 5. The play, featuring the "Brute," was clean, sensational and interesting in every act. The scenery in which the play was staged was especially attractive. Those who witnessed it were imbued with a higher sense of respect for our players as presented on the average screen. The scene was in a very attractive and fashionable home with such furnishings and surroundings as would make no one ashamed. As a rule when members of our group are put on the screen they are there as the "smut faces" or "back-yarders" or some character that is merely "funny" and not at all enlightening. Not so with this play. This production was entirely free from all objectionable scenes and presented a wonderful story of a beautiful and tender girl in the toil of a shrewd gambler and boss of the underworld, whose creed is: "To make a woman love you, knock her down." Miss Evelyn Preer divided honors with the world-renowned Sam Langford, who was introduced to the screen in a wonderfully realistic pictorialization of one of his many fistic battles. Every red-blooded man, woman and child was intensely interested and highly pleased with this sensational photoplay and expressed their appreciation for this effort put forth by Mr. and Mrs. Martin Pedersen, proprietors of this playhouse. TURNER COLLEGE MOVES TO MEMPHIS MEMPHIS, Tenn., Nov. 11.—A few days ago in a meeting of the trustees of the Turner College, which is located at Shelbyville, Tenn., it was proposed to move the institution to Memphis.

Miss Mabel Scott of Beatrice presided at the punch bowl, assisted by Miss Beatrice Jefferies. Candy, assorted nuts and ice cream were served. The color scheme was old rose, carried out in the lights, and the rooms were decorated with palms, carnations, Ophelia and roses. Several pleasing musical selections were given by Mrs. Izetaa Malone. PLEASANT RECEPTIONS One of the prettiest affairs of the season was a reception given at the home of Rev. and Mrs. O. J. Burckhardt, 1236 Washington street, last Thursday evening, complimentary to Mr. and Mrs. William Jenquenz and Mrs. James O'Donald, who will leave soon for Los Angeles, Cal. Pink roses and chrysanthemums were used as decorations throughout the attractive home. Punch was daintily served the guests by Miss Mabel Scott and Miss Beatrice Jeffries. The guests were delightfully entertained during the evening by Mrs. Claude Malone, who charmingly rendered several vocal and instrumental selections. About 10:30 o'clock refreshments were served by Misses Scott and Jeffries, assisted by Mrs. Al Taylor. Each one of the guests upon departing wished Mr. and Mrs. Jenquenz success and happiness in their new home. Mrs. James O'Donald will return after several weeks' visit with her daughter, Mrs. Eva Smith. The members of the Optimistic Set gave a reception Monday afternoon. November 8, at the home of Mrs. M. E. Williams, complimentary to Mrs. William Jenquenz and Mrs. James O'Donald. The afternoon was devoted to cards and needlework guessing game. Prizes were awarded the two guessing the largest number of stitches correctly. The first prize was awarded Mrs. A. Taylor and the second to Mrs. J. A. Patrick. Both of these young ladies presented their prizes to the honor guests, Mrs. Jenquenz and Mrs. O'Donald. Two pretty bouquets of flowers were also given them by the club members. A three-course luncheon was then served, the ices being in the form of turkeys. THE ROUND TABLE While I am musing, I recall the words of that old Roman who said, "I name, I saw, I conquered." This may be the sentiment of the victorious republicans. However, it remains to be seen what use the victors will make of their opportunity. As a churchman, "The Scribe" sees the hand of a kindly Providence leading this nation to the open door of opportunity; query, will it enter? I now return to the consideration of the legitimacy of "Prince Hall" or Negro Masonry in this country, quoting freely from the writing of Brother Harry A. Williamson, deputy grand master of the grand lodge of New York state, Free and Accepted Masons (Prince Hall). "Two objections against the Negroes are: That the formation of African lodge was an error, and further, that it died a natural death about 1813. Both assertions are quite satisfactorily contradicted as follows: Brother Robbins in his report to the grand lodge of Illinois, in 1876, says: "We believe, and we think we have shown in former reports, that the original legitimacy of African lodge is beyond question; and that its members were robbed of their rights when the grand lodge of Massachusetts was formed in 1792." From the proceedings of the white grand lodge of Ohio for 1876, page 17: "Your committee deems it sufficient to say that they are satisfied beyond all question that colored Free Masonry had a legitimate beginning in this country as much as any other Free Masonry; in fact, it came from the same source." The most unusual comment made by a latter day writer upon the subject is from the pen of Rear Admiral M. W. Brother Geo. W. Baird, past grand master of the grand lodge of the District of Columbia, who states in an article written for Bulletin 36, published by the International Bureau for Masonic Affairs at Neuchatel, Switzerland, that: "It was thought by many that the action of that military L I N C O L N B-1508 B-3119 CITY TAXI SERVICE S E R V I C E 222 No. Always 7th St. Open Dunbar Cafe "The Place of Sweets" TRY OUR MIDDAY PLATE DINNER 25c Ice Cream Sodas and All Kinds of Fancy Mixed Drinks We Specialize on luncheonettes JACK GALBREATH L.

No facts were quoted to substantiate such a conclusion. The good brother forgot there was no legal enactment in effect against the ownership of slaves at that time; also that "free Negroes" were descendants of foreign-born parents, or from the intermarriage of Negroes and Indians. Wherefore the insult? The first governing body among the Negroes was styled "African Grand Lodge." In 1808 the name was changed to the "Prince Hall Grand Lodge of Massachusetts," in honor and memory of the plebeian Mero Masons. I call attention briefly to some of its works as follows: On the 16th of February, 1812, it issued a warrant for the establishment of Boyer lodge No. 1 in New York City. In the year 1826 it created Celestial lodge No. 2, Rising Sun lodge No. 3 and Hiram lodge No. 4, all in the same city with Boyer lodge. A partial list of the grand master of Prince Hall grand lodge is as follows: Nero Prince, 1807 to 1809; George Middleton, 1809 to 1811; Peter Lew, 1811 to 1817; Samuel H. Moody, 1817 to 1826; John T. Hilton, 1826 to 1827. The foregoing data, together with the statement that 450 meetings were held from 1807 to 1846, is conclusive evidence that the lodge did not become extinct as has been charged. In concluding this lengthy article, we may add that in our next article we will discuss some of the objections raised by our white brethren. We who are of darker hue realized long since that race and color prejudice is rampant in this country; yet we are developing a new Negro, one that has grown tremendously from the teachings of the late world war. Patriotic to the core; giving freely without murmur his life for a land that fosters lynching of his kind. He demonstrates to the world, to friend and foe, the one fact—the Negro is a man Robt.

Johnson Refreshments, James White Organizer, M. H. Hazzard, District Deputy. MEN AND WOMEN of intelligence and good judgment, who think for themselves, who sincerely desire the advancement and unity of our community who know an opportunity when they see it, and who have sufficient courage to back up their own good judgment with their ballot, if properly used, will make real unity possible and bring to them their share of this community's vast wealth. We address the following call to you, if you are one of these and want to share in this wealth and respect. It is a duty you owe yourself to thoroughly understand this great offer, which we are making to secure a portion of this wealth and respect now offered in the present reconstructive period, and to demonstrate the capacity of our race for carrying on effective organizations and enterprises, and for the assistance of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in securing a greater leadership among the organizations of the world. च Knowing the need of a great organization in this city, we feel it our duty to make it very plain as to where we stand on how to build a branch of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in Omaha. We wish to invite your confidence and your help in these plans. We know this is a hard thing for you to do—to place any confidence in any promises made to you by anyone in Omaha, Douglas County, Nebraska. The reason for this is very plainly understood. Heretofore, it seems, there has been a misunderstanding between the employee and the boss. For instance, in the past, men have come to you and asked you to organize not for your benefit, but for their own selfish promotion. In other words, they have come to you and asked you to put them on your shoulder so they could reach up and get the desired fruit, supposedly for you, but when you have put them in a position to get this fruit, as a rule, they forget to pass it on down to you, but preserve it all for themselves. Then when you begin to push them off your shoulder, they wonder why. They don't seem to understand that you have become so weak for the want of fruit, that you can't hold them any longer. Then they accuse you of being a race of people who won't get together. No, you don't have to fatten frogs for snakes, and no one should think hard of you for not doing so. Now, what is the remedy for curing this dreadful disease among our people? First make a law that will force the man you elect to pass the fruit on down to the rightful deserter, who put them in the position to get the said fruit. This we propose to do in this way: Any officer or member of the executive committee of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People caught accepting any money from any person or persons, or accepting a position or recommending anyone for a position or a job from a political standpoint or view, or any other reason whatsoever, or using his influence or prestige for himself, or any person or persons, without the consent of the Executive Committee. In the event of any officer or member of the Executive Committee violating the above rule, the chairman of the Vigilance Committee will be instructed to file charges with the Executive Committee.

RAISE ITS/BUDGET ATLANTA WOMEN (By the Associated Negro Press) ATLANTA, Ga., Nov. 11.—The effort of Negro women to vote, and the fact that about seventy-five of them did actually cast their ballots at the Sixth ward polling place, were the outstanding features of general election day in Atlanta. The Sixth ward polling place was the only one in the city where women, white and black, were allowed to vote, and the ballots cast by the Negro women will be thrown out.

We further desire to do away with that class of self-styled leader, only for a few, and his particular set. We want to build up that principle that will lift all men and women up, and put no human being down, but build a lighthouse on a hill, that every man, woman and child will be able to see from early in the morning until late at night. In fact, we desire to make the principle the N. A. A. C. P. stands for so strong for the people, by the people, until it can be felt in the air of this community, by both white and black. We want you, Mr. Workingman and Mr. Common Class Man, to teach the business man, to teach the doctor, to teach the lawyer, to teach the newspaper man, to teach the minister, that they owe you something more besides just taking your money for professional service and business courtesy. We want to teach him that it is his duty to help open the avenues for you to make money as well as for him to take money from you—that it is his duty to help open new avenues for employment. We want you to help teach him that it is his duty to use his prestige and his influence and his money, that you have been so instrumental in helping him to secure, toward getting better treatment from city officials, from public co-operation, from labor unions, from the theatres and places of public amusement, from the police department, and facts to help build up a community that will be fit for any self-respecting American citizen to reside in. Mr. Working Man and the Common Class People, you have entrusted your future to the lawyer, to the doctor, to the minister, to the self-styled politician, newspaper man and business man long enough. It is high time that you were taking the job in hand and letting him know what he must do for humanity's sake. In fact, for his own good. For when he helps make things better for the working class of people, he has laid the foundation for a prosperous community in which to live. You may wonder how you can accomplish so many things. At this point, we desire to call your attention to one fact. The world war was won by manpower, not by a few, but by many putting forth the concrete efforts to accomplish the desired intentions. Is it not true that the few make their living off of you and you alone? Why not ask them to do something in return for you? We want you to help us build and instill that principle into the hearts of the people of this community that will live long after the death of any individual, a principle that will be recognized as the authority from the people, by the people, through their representatives, no matter who they may be—that principle that knows no color line, that principle that wishes all men up and no man down, that principle that the N. A. A. C. P. is trying to advocate in this country. You have heard the proposition—what are you going to do about it? Are you willing to help someone that is willing to help you? If so, vote solid for the following platform and some of the men that have promised to work for it. Ninth—We feel that our people do not have their share of employment from a political standpoint. For instance, if we pay one-twelfth of the taxes, we are entitled to one-twelfth of taxes spent for employment, both office and labor. We will work for this until it is accomplished. Section 10 Tenth—We shall consider the organization of a building and loan association for the purpose of assisting and encouraging our people to buy homes, because we feel that it will be a great asset to the race. Section 11 Eleventh—We are glad that Omaha is blessed with a Young Women's Christian Association. We will give it all possible support. JOHN CRAWFORD, Drake Court, 22d and Jones Sts. CHAS, C.

Webster 6789 Phillis Wheatley Association of Cleveland a Victory for Negro Leadership —"Better Girls, Better Homes"— Example of Inter-Racial Co-Operation. Hampton, Va., Nov. 11.—Northern industrial centers are becoming better organized along social service lines to care properly for the Negro migrants. The movement of Negroes from the South to the North, the East and the West continues, in spite of the industrial depression. What Cleveland is doing to help young colored women and girls, many of whom have recently come from small southern rural communities, was recently presented to some of the Hampton Institute workers by Miss Jane Hunter, founder and general manager of the Phillis Wheatley association, which has won the active financial and moral support of Cleveland's white and colored citizens. Miss Hunter said: "The Phillis Wheatley association building is not adequate to meet the needs of colored girls in Cleveland. We reach, on an average, probably eight or nine hundred girls a month. With our vesper services included we probably reach 15,000 girls a year. Some girls are educated, some are uneducated, some are poor, and some are in good circumstances. Our chief aim, however, is to help the working girl. We have never lost sight of the girl who has never had a chance. "We have an employment bureau through which we help about 700 people every month. Most of the jobs are for work by the day. Other jobs are in domestic service, factories, and stores. "We found that we were getting hold of a lot of untrained, ignorant girls who did not know anything about our customs and the things they were being asked to do, so we started an educational department two years ago. It was not a real success until last year, when ye secured the services of an Oberlin graduate to start that work properly. She had a building all to herself, in which to teach modern housekeeping, domestic service, and some handicrafts. "We also found another problem to solve. The mothers whom we sent out to work were leaving at home a lot of little girls, who were at an age to be led astray. A lot of complaints had come to the Phillis Wheatley association and we thought we ought to do something. Of course, if we did not do it, someone else would; but there was no one else to do it. 'We organized what is known as the Girls' Reserve, in order to help girls from 8 to 15 years of age. We were fairly swamped with children. We started with volunteer help and what little I knew about children. In less than six weeks we had over 150 little girls. The Y. W. C. A. loaned us one of their workers, who mapped out a program for us. A fine white friend gave us money to send a girl off for special training for this work. We now have over 200 little girls enrolled. The mothers are happy to have us have their girls. "In 1913 we had one worker, whom we paid $25 a month and gave her a room. The work has grown, until now we have thirteen secretaries. Our salaries average $14,000 a year. Our annual budget is now $47,000; last year it was $32,000. We feel quite sure that we can secure money for our budget. What we want of the white people is the benefit of their training. If white people will give us a chance, we will do the rest." "TOUSSAINT L'OUVERTURE" $90,000 PHOTOPLAY NEW YORK, Nov. 11.—"Tousaint D'ouvverture," the $90,000 production proposed by the Delsarte Flim Corporation, will be shown for ten weeks in a large Broadway theatre and simultaneously in Paris, France. Afterwards it will be released throughout the world. Clarence Muse, the celebrated dramatic star, will play the title role. The releasing company is spending approximately $150,000 in exploitation.
