LOUIS, Mo., Jan. 20.—A new wrinkle in criminology was uncovered Saturday night, January 8, when two supposed "Brown Skin" Negroes held up the Almack dance hall at Pine and Jefferson avenue. According to the police report the men went to the hall, which is on the second floor, and ordered everyone to hold up hands. One man gathered about $45.00 while the other held the gun. Joe Davis, the proprietor, states that the men came up the stairs like any other Negroes who were going to the hall, that the first one drew a gun and told him to hold up his hands, while the other grabbed about $65.00, the night's receipts, and escaped. When the man with the gun started down the stairs, Davis says he reached for his gun and began shooting. The first shot hit the robber in the shoulder, who yelled, "O, Lord! Don't kill me." Davis says he kept on shooting and out of five shots, he hit the man three times. The police report mentions only two, the other being a wound on the right ear. LARGE AUDIENCE GREETS TROTTER Noted Boston Editor, Secretary of the National Equal Rights League and Delegate to Peace Conference, Speaks at Zion Baptist Church OUTWITTED GOVERNMENT Tells Story of Struggle to Rench Paris When He and Other Delegates Were Arbitrarily Denied Passports by Wideon Administration AN audience which packed the spacious auditorium of Zion Baptist church, enthusiastically greeted William Monroe Trotter, editor of the Boston Guardian and secretary of the National Equal Rights League, Monday night when he modestly told the story of his triumphant struggle to get to Paris as a delegate from the National Congress of Colored Americans to the peace conference, after every effort to secure passports for the delegates chosen had failed. Passports to colored delegates were arbitrarily denied by the Wilson administration, the representatives of which after a policy of temporizing and evasion, frankly admitted that passports would not be given because Mr. Wilson did not wish to have any colored Americans in Paris who would "rock the boat." It was then that Mr. Trotter and the Rev. William Carter of Seattle, determined that they would endeavor to reach Paris by strategy, fully realizing the perilousness of the undertaking. They went to New York and sought to secure employment on vessels going to Paris. After several fruitless efforts Mr. Carter gave up and returned to Seattle. Mr. Trotter remained and after three months, secured employment as a cook on the Yarmouth and so landed at Havre. He eventually reached Paris and presented his credentials. He succeeded in placing before the delegates the facts touching our people in the United States. The Paris newspapers carried stories of the lynchings, disfranchisement and denial of rights to colored Americans while President Wilson was eloquently pleading for world democracy. Mr. Trotter said that the world war was a conflict between the white races. But they called upon the black races to help them win the war which they had started. America eventually entered, inspired with the belief that their task was to help make the world safe for democracy. With the hope of sharing in this democracy, the colored Americans went forth to bleed and die. The millions of the race in America felt that when the war was ended their voice for larger opportunities should be heard at the peace THE MONITOR and the side of the head. The wounded robber ran on Jefferson and west on Lawton, pursued by Davis and Policemen Bauer and Dundon, to Beaumont where he was captured. Had Theatrical Makeup So deceptive was his makeup that the policemen sent him to Hospital No. 2, for colored, where Dr. Winson, on examination, found that the robber's "brown skin" was only a greased paint of the kind used by theatrical performers and its wearer was a white man. He gave his name as Frank Weber of 1702 Stoddard street. Other is a Real "Brown skin" The other man, who escaped with the money, was a real "brown skin." His name is Leo Alexander, alias "Gimp," 1619 Linden street. He was arrested in the Union station with only thirty cents on his person. Both men have prison records. This is the first instance in the history of crime in St. Louis where a white man was found to have used any other than a black-face makeup to deceive the victim and fasten the blame on some Negro. It is a question how much the deception has been used. conference. It was for this that: congress was called and delegates chosen, since representatives of other groups including labor and women were to be heard at Paris. And it was his determination that the autocratic and arbitrary action of President Wilson in denying passports only to colored Americans, that he determined to defy and if possible outwit the government. Mr. Trotter urged his audience to stand uncompromisingly for their constitutional rights and never patiently submit to being made the doormat for any foreigners who might come to these shoes. The colored American has won the right to be treated as and accorded the full rights of American citizens, in public places, in common carriers, in the courts of law and in educational institutions and he must never cease contending for those rights until they are accorded him. Mr. Lane Fremont Baldwin of Boston, who is traveling with Mr. Trotter gave some interesting facts touching Mr. Trotter's battle for the right of his race. Preceding the address music was fermished by the choir, an address of welcome on behalf of the Y. W. C. A. was given by Mrs. W. W. Peebles, the Rev. W. M. Franklin introduced the speaker. Mr. E. W. Pryor, president of the Colored Commercial club, presided. The Rev. W. F. Bott, pastor of the church, gave the benediction. The following message was unanimously adopted by the meeting and ordered wired to Washington: "Omaha, Neb. Jan. 17, 1921. "To the Patriotic Members of the National House of Representatives: "We, colored citizens of Omaha Neb., in mass meeting assembled in the Zion Baptist church, call upon you in the reapportionment of congressmen now before you, to reduce the quota of states notorious for disfranchisement in obedience to the Fourteenth Article of the Constitution. We protest against the bill which increases the quota of the states which most drastically disfranchise the passage of which would be a bale violation of law by national lawmakers and an insult as well as flagent injustice to all colored Americans, counting the disfranchised to increase the federal power over them of their disfranchisers. We urge the passage of the Tinkham bill." HOWARD ATTENDANCE DIDCATES TIDAL WAVE OF EDUCATIONAL INTEREST W. WINGTON, D.

The large enrollment during the autumn quarter indi- OMAHA, NEBRASKA, JANUARY 20, 1921 cated a tidal wave of educational interest. This was traceable to two causes. In the first place the war had ended and students who had dropped their books to take up arms were returning to complete their education; and in the second place the experiences of the war had taught them the full value of training as nothing else could have done. As a result, many returned to the school room to resume their studies where they had been left of fyears before. It is surprising but gratifying to find that this interest in education has not spent itself, but has proven to be more healthy and permanent than was anticipated. The enrollment at Howard shows an increase in every department over that of 1918. The enrollment follows: College and Graduate Schools... 878 School of Law... 161 School of Religion (including those taking certificate courses 232 Schools of Medicine, Dentistry and Pharmacy. 459 Total enrollment.....1,730 When it is remembered that Howard university has discontinued entirely all preparatory work and is now open only to students able to qualify for collegiate and professional courses its record of attendance is an entirely new thing in the world of Negro education and is of definitely significant import MIGRATION WORRYING DIXIE FOURTH ESTATE Southern Editors Anxious About Shift of Colored Population to Northern Cities—South's Most Populous Cities Show Great Decline in Negro Population — Would Employ Southern Methods of Treatment to Discourage Migration. By the Associated Negro Press CHICAGO, Ill., Jan. 20.—There is a concerted effort, with more or less suspicious motives, to 'manufacture sentiment in favor of the southern idea of dealing with the race problem. The following editorial which has come under the observation of the Associated Negro Press, has appeared, without credit lines, in fifty or more southern daily newspapers. Each editorial has the same caption, as is always the case in similar editorials. The caption of this editorial is "Chicago as a Negro City." It says: "Chicago has carried through its boast that it would double its Negro population in the decade. The increase is 148.5 per cent, as against 21 per cent for the whites. The Negroes have grown proportionately in numbers more than seven times as fast as the whites. Total Negroes in Chicago, 109,544, which carries it above Baltimore and possibly Washington, with New York probably its chief competitor. The changed conditions in this country are shown by the fact that the two cities with the largest Negro population are now in the north—Chicago and New York—and that the next two, Baltimore and Washington, are in the so-called "border states," with possibly another northern city. Philadelphia, sixth. The only southern city which comes anywhere near these is New Orleans, which may show a slight falling off in number of its Negroes, like the neighboring counties of Louisiana and Mississippi. "The result is due to three causes—the fact that many railroads in this section run directly into Chicago, so that it is easy for Negroes from Louisiana, Mississippi and Tennessee to slip into the Illinois metropolis; secondly the camp for the southern Negroes during the war was at Grant, near Chicago; and, finally, political influence, for Chicago politicians have stimulated this immigration, finding the Negro voters easily controlled by them. There are 50,000 Negro voters in Chicago who are segregated in the South division, and have a largely determining influence in Chicago politics. "It will be remembered that immediately after the civil war some extremists on the race question suggested that a district or territory of the United States be set off as a reservation for the Negroes alone, a sort of American Liberia. Possibly the South Side of Chicago could be set aside for this purpose. Its population is almost exclusively Negro and its officials, state and municipal, are of the same race. "Many of these Negroes came originally, and only a few years ago, from Louisiana and Mississippi. The efforts to win them back to the South have not been at all encouraging. They are being held together by their large numbers and their political favors. The people of Chicago have awakened to the fact that they have a race problem of their own to solve, and very marked differences of opinion have developed among them to the proper treatment of the question, as the anti-Negro riots of last year showed Chicago, therefore, has a far kindle [Name not visible in the image] ED F.

A. Pippen on motion of District Attorney Maury Hughes, and the man was given his liberty. The charges had been filed against Stegall in connection with an alleged attack on Mrs. John Clark at her home on the night of November 28. The trial had been set for January 12. A statement from Mrs. Clark was attached to the motion for dismissal. It requested the court to dismiss the cases pending against Stegall, declaring that he was not guilty and had no connection with the alleged crimes. "I have explained this thing to District Attorney Hughes," the note concluded. The note was signed before three witnesses. Sums Up Testimony In his motion for dismissal of the cases against Stegall, the district attorney summed up the testimony given at the examining trial, at which time Mrs. Clark said Stegall had entered her home, attempted to assault her, and after binding and gagging Baldwin of Boston, Mass.

Y., Jan. 20.—An nouncement has just been made of a new departure in music and business on the part of the race. A corporation with a capital of $100,000.00 has just been formed for the purpose of making phonograph records, using exclusively the voices and talent of colored people. It has long been a subject of comment that although colored people are very large buyers of phonograph records, our best voices and high class musicians have had no recognition from the large white companies that are supplied. At present only three colored people sing for the records out of the hundreds of artists that are employed in this work. One of these is making purely comic records, another is singing blues, and the third is singing his own syncopated songs. When artists like Madame Hackley, Madame Patti Brown, Mrs. Florence Cole-Talbert, Harry Burleigh, Marion Anderson and Roland Hayes desire to make records they are advised that they must pay the companies to bring out their records. At very great expense Roland Hayes produced some of his own records a few years ago, but the cost was so heavy that he could not con- WELFARE WORKER GIVES GOOD ACCOUNT The Following Report of the Colored Welfare Worker Will Be of Interest to Our Readers.

The organizers of the present company believe the demand on the part of the race to perpetuate the voices of its best musicians must be met and that such records will sell. While not depreciating the commercial value of comic songs, "blues" and ragtime songs, the new corporation proposes to furnish every type of race music, including sacred and spiritual songs, the popular songs of the day, and the high-class ballads and operatic selections. It proposes to use some of the most famous quartets, concert artists, church and school choirs and glee clubs, together with many colored vaudeville acts, for which contracts are being prepared and sent out. The organization of the company is in charge of Mrs. Harry H. Pace, who has been identified with the establishment of some of the largest and most successful business ventures of the race, including the Million Dollar Solvent Savings Bank & Trust company, of Memphis, Tenn.; The Standard Life Insurance company of Atlanta, Ga., and the Pace & Handy Music company of New York, N. Y. Mr. Pace is desirous of getting in touch with singers and musicians of the race who have talent along this line and with race merchants and dealers who are interested in handling such records. Preliminary Meeting Held Thursday Night at Y. W. C. A.-Appoints Committee to Perfect Plans. An interesting meeting was held last Thursday night at the Y. W. C. A. at Twenty-second and Grant streets for the purpose of considering the advisability of organizing a Y. M. C. A. or similar organization which would meet the needs of the young men of the community. Dr. John A. Singleton, who called the meeting, presided, and was elected chairman of the temporary organization and George Wells Parker, secretary. The consensus of opinion favored an independent association. A committee was therefore appointed to draft a form of organization and present the same at a meeting to be held Saturday night at the same place to which all young men who are interested in such a movement are invited. The committee on organization consists of the following: George Wells Parker, Leroy Kelly, Louis Lacour, James A. Clarke and Dr. Amos B. Madison. HOWARD UNIVERSITY'S 4TH ANNUAL CONVOCATION WASHINGTON, D. C., Jan. 20.—The fourth annual convocation of the School of Religion, Howard university, Washington, D. C., promises to be of unusual interest and importance. The theme for general discussion, "Brotherhood—The Gospel for Today," and the prominence of those invited to participate in the sessions, assure an occasion which will be worthy of the preceding convocations. The sessions of the first day will be largely of a patriotic nature as is fitting for the date, February 22. On the following day the wider aspects of the theme will be presented by such well known leaders as Arthur D. Call, secretary of the American Peace society; Bishop Charles S. Smith, D. D., of Detroit, Mich.; Rev. W. N. DeBerry, D. D., of Springfield, Mass., and Rev. Frederick Lynch, D. D., editor of Christian Work. On Thursday, February 24, the program will be devoted to the movement in church and state looking toward the realization of brotherhood. Fuller details will be published later. A large attendance is anticipated and an inspiring time is in store for all privileged to attend. N. A. A. C. P. MEETS The Omaha branch of the N. A. A. C.

THE ASSOCIATED MICRO PRESS FIRST IN SERVICE THE Monitor is glad that James G. Jewell has filed a suit for damages against the Moon theater. It is only one of several which persists in violating the civil rights bill of this state. There have been several flagrant instances where our most highly respected and cultured women have been submitted to indignities and humiliations in these places of amusement which are open to the public. The statutes of Nebraska recognizes no race or color in the enjoyment of public privileges. If the only way to safeguard and maintain our rights as citizens is to resort to the courts, then we must not hesitate to invoke their aid and make no compromise. Discrimination and curtailment of civil rights are increasing instead of lessening, despite our patience and forbearance, it therefore becomes our duty to legally contend for all our civil rights under the law. ANTI-SEMITISM THE Monitor opposes with all the influence it may be able to exert the malicious and anti-Semitic campaign of slander which is finding favor in some quarters. There are no better citizens anywhere in the world than the Jews. They have been loyal and devoted to America. Objects of persecution, they have borne it with fortitude. Being reviled, they have reviled not again. The anti-Semitic propaganda ought to be opposed by every red-blooded American who believes in a square deal and fair play. No persecution of the Jews will find any favor among colored Americans. NO GERRYMANDERING OMAHA is to be redistricted into legislative and senatorial districts, each district to elect its representatives. The Monitor was not in favor of this amendment. It, however passed by a narrow margin. It is up to the state legislature to make this redistricting. Since there are districts in which our people are settled in large numbers, we desire to call the legislative committee's attention to the fact that we want no gerrymandering in such district or districts. ON THE HONOR ROLL IT is gratifying to note that so many of our pupils in the schools are making such excellent records in scholarship. Pupils in the grades, high schools and University of Omaha are, in increasing numbers, winning places on the honor roll. This is good work, boys and girls, keep it up. Brains and work are bound to win. Always do your best. Never be satisfied with mediocrity. Strive to excel. "NEGRO BLOOD" AGAIN THERE was to have been a track meet between Harvard and the University of Virginia. But it's off. Two of Harvard's best men have the rich red blood of Africa in their veins. Virginia's dignity, if you please, made it impossible for her athletes to compete with men who have "Negro blood" in their veins—when it is known. And they call this sportsmanship. We call it cowardice. We are glad that Harvard refused to bow to Virginia's narrowness or to make any concession to their foolish prejudice. SNYCOPATED SPASMS WE don't know who the dude was who said, "Money is the root of all evil," and we haven't got the time just now to look it up; but we wish to say that he stopped in the middle of the word gush and forgot to finish it out. Dough might be the root of all evil, but we opine that it is also the branches and leaves of all good. The best part about dough is that it means eats and in these days and times it is the luckiest thing in the world to be able to cache enough of the needful tb decorate the family feeding board with oatmeal and wafers. Of course, several months ago we could decorate the fancy linen with chicken, pork chops and porterhouse, but just at this particular moment one has to persuade his personal exchequer to take things easy like and not put across too much jazz stuff. Never can one fully appreciate the value of dough until he hears somebody singing, "I Need The Every Hour." Then he realizes that the saddest thing in the DOUGH deep pocket that is making a moan because of its loneliness. In the olden days when one man could trade a firkin of butter for a neat collection of shoes, socks and gloves, nobody needed any dough, because each dude was able to make something that had dough value. But in this age when the majority of mutts can't even get a chance to raise a few onions, dough has become the almighty necessity. Only a few days ago Bermie Shaw, the famous English lambaster, said that ender socialism every man ought to have an income of 250,000 bucks a year. Sure he ought. But what that time comes it won't do him any more good than it is doing him now. If a ham bone costs you thirty thousand a throw, how long will the rest of the income last when it gets tangled up with the modern expense account? Yep, dough is the necessity. It might be the root of all evil, but most folks these days don't mind tampering with the root. CURRENT AND OTHERWISE (By W. H. A. Moore) DON'T see how the Negro can escape getting to the top of the social scale. If free, generous and multitudinous tons of wholesome, far-reaching and soul-racking advice counts for anything there is not one chance in a thousand for the white race to maintain itself at the social top. William H. Taft, ex-president of the United States of America; Albert W. Beveridge, an ex-United States senator, are to be numbered among the latest of the more distinguished advisors of the race. "Work hard!" "be honest," "praise the Lord" are the "leaders" in the program which is to bring about a condition of honest-to-goodness situation of respect at the hands of our good brothers-in-white. One is stumped, at odd times, to get a sensible viewpoint of the fellow who is trying to run the world in these times. He works hard only when he is compelled to do so; his honesty is so deep seated in his nature that it seldom comes to view; and as for this "praise the Lord" stuff he's been handing to us all through the past three centuries, that's worn to a veritable frazzle. But all of this does not hinder us from taking to heart the oft-iterated admonitions to be good. I once had a friend who often said, "Be goody you'll be lonesome, but be good." The Jews are certainly having a tough time of it in the United States nowadays. There is a very general belief affaint that the Henry Ford millions are being employed in the operations of a propaganda which seeks their complete downfall in the realms of America's social, artistic and business life. And now comes the raspings accents of a "Black Apostle" making noisy declarations that Negroes are the real Jews and all other kinds of claimants to this noble name are base impostors. And all this travail coming to light just at the moment when a considerable and influential number of our Jewish friends were busy in the preparations for a hearty jump right into the middle of the ring of "For whites only." "There is a destiny which shapes"—but, what's the use; we won't know anything about white or black a hundred years hence. Amy Scott is dead. You don't know Amy? That's funny. Amy was a 100 per cent Kentucky cook who reigned supreme in Mount Sterling Ky., as the "leader of her race." For sixteen years she was highly appreciated servant of the Hon. B. J. Peters who was chief justice of the Kentucky court of appeals." During the latter years of her very useful life she was the "beloved cook of the Bean family of Mount Sterling." This is right down good news. In my own right and majesty I have always had more than a wholesome respect for a good cook. And while I did not have the honor of Amy Scott's acquaintance, I do not hesitate to join my sorrow to that of the white and black citizens of Mount Sterling who are giving genuine expression to the loss they have sustained in the passing of one of their first citizens. Good cooks are really scarce. "Ku Klux Klan To Invade North In Nationwide Drive" is the headpiece of a recent New York Herald headline. The story which follows relates a plan to clinch the "color line," to urge a warfare against radicalism, and to institute "prompt action to quell disturbances," whatever that may mean. I take the whole program to be a patriotic endeavor "to keep the 'nigger' in his place," and thereby keep the banner of democracy floating high and far away above the heads of the mob. And, in the face of all this, we are being advised by William Howard Taft to be patient, good and work hard. Music and Poetry has made its appearance. It is good looking in all particulars. The table of contents contains a London letter by Roland Hayes; the score of a "Negro Dance" by the editor, Norah Douglas Holt; "Violin Technic" by Harrison Emanuel, the negroed Violinist, and "Music and Poetry—Noblest of Arts" by J. A. Rogers.

PAUL PRESBYTERIAN Many words of commendation were heard on the sermon preached at the morning services on "The Profitability of Holy Scriptures." To have our people comment on what we have to say to them is the desire of every minister, whether that comment is favorable or otherwise. The pastor diagnoses the spiritual condition of his people as the physician does the physical condition of his patient. And the one is as anxious as the other to know if the remedy prescribed has been helpful. The 8 o'clock service was given over to Mr. Herbert and Miss Grace Jardine of the Clifton Hill Presbyterian church, each of whom brought to us words of encouragement and cheer Christian Endeavor pledge cards were distributed and the returns showed that twenty or more had given their consent to be organized into a Christian Endeavor society, which organization will be effected at an early date. At the meeting of the Omaha Presbytery, Monday, January 17, the pastor was formally received from the Presbytery of Cheyenne, Synod of Wyoming, and his name enrolled in the Omaha Presbytery. The Name of St. Paul's church was als aduly enrolled, and it is now lined up with the other forty-five churches of the Omaha Presbytery, eighteen of which are in the city of Omaha. The special feature for our services Sunday morning will be the ordination and installation of ruling elders. Mrs J. H. Hutten will sing a solo and the choir will render an anthem.

The first annual meeting of the stockholders of the Co-operative Workers of America was held the second Wednesday in January, 1921, at their store building at 1516-18 North Twenty fourth street. The meeting was called to order at 8 p.m. by the president, Mr. John W. Gordon. After the invocation by Rev. Wm. Franklin, the president was introduced and proceeded to make his annual report. He was followed by the secretary, Mr. Z. C. Snowden, who brought out a detailed report of the company's activities during 1920. The treasurer's report was then read by Mr. S. W. Mills. To the surprise of the stockholders, there was only an error of two cents made during the year, this error having been made by the bank. This report was made by a state licensed auditor. Words are inadequate to express the deep sense of gratitude that was shown by the stockholders for this extraordinary efficient management. Mr. H. J. Pinkett, the general manager, delivered a short address regarding the company's activities during the fourteen months of organization. His report was gratefully received by all. The stockholders then proceeded to the election of the board of directors for 1921. The old board was unanimously re-elected, and the two vacancies were filled by Messrs. S. K. Brownlow and Christopher Adams, a soldier who was wounded in the world's war in France. At 10:30 p.m. the meeting was adjourned to meet the second Wednesday in January, 1922 unless other called.

Mosley Remember the state meet of the N. A. A. C. P. to be held in Mt. Zion Baptist church Sunday afternoon, January 23, at 2 o'clock. All, members and those interested in the welfare of your race, be a present. Mrs. Evelyn Evans underwent a serious operation at St. Elizabeth's hospital last week, which has proved successful, and she is improving now. The revival meetings closed at Mr Zion Baptist church last Friday night. Rev. J. W. Gordon did himself credit in delivering masterpiece sermons to those who heard him during the two nights' services, and will be long remembered - Six persons were added to the church. Rev. Mr. Gordon left Saturday for his home in Richmond, Mo. Mrs. Margaret Williams returned home Monday after a month's stay with her mother and sister in Kansas City, Kans. Prof. H. F. Anderson of Kansas City, Mo., was in the city last Friday and appeared before a large audience at McKinley Center that night. Prof. Anderson is styled "a man of mystery," and he proved that to be true in his performance, thus mystifying his audience with his pranks. The performance was given under the auspices of the Daughters of Isis No. 43. Mr. Wm. Chum is improving in health. Miss Bijou Collins is reported quite ill at the state hospital. J. T. Wright was on the sick list a few days this week. Mrs. W. S. Wilkinson of Fairbury, Neb., spent two days in the city and was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. I. B. Smith. The ten nights' meetings closed at the Morning Star Baptist church the past week, after a successful run. The Rev. J. P. Staves was greatly assisted by Rev. John Costello of Omaha. The services were conducted as usual at the several churches, being fairly attended; but there is room for improvement in the attendance of the members, especially Christians should show the world that they are interested in Christian religion, then our churches would be better attended and given more support for the cause of the Master. Mr. Edward Hayes of St. Joseph Mo., visited his nephew, Guy Wiley, here last Sunday. Dates Served in Forty Ways.
