LIFT TOO
SHRINERS' CASE TO COME UP MAY FIRST IN TEXAS
White Waterman Order Is Making a
K. Night to Prevent Colored
Dry from Using Name
and Insignia
Colored Shrine. Every Section Injoined from using Name or Emblem of Well Known Organization.
Houston, Texas, April 13.—Preliminary injunction enjoining colored Shriners of Houston, "and of the entire United States," from using the names of the organization or using, wearing or displaying the emblems, insignia, badges and head covering of the organization will be heard by Judge Ewing Boyd, of the Fifty-fifth Judicial Court of Texas, on Monday, May 1, 1922.
The writ of injunction has already been served upon several colored Shriners of the colored contingent here, and, since the imperial council intervened at the filing of the original petition, the court granted the temporary injunction against both the local temple and the entire jurisdiction.
In their petition, the whites give a brief history of the founding of the organization in America and try to establish the exclusive right of white people to operate a Shrine in the United States.
The restraining injunction, temporary in its nature, prohibits the colored Shriners from employing the or "further using the name of the names of the plaintiff's organization 'Ancient Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine,' or the name 'Ancient Egyptian Arabic Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine,' or the name 'Doric Temple of the Ancient Egyptian Arabic Order Nobles of the Mystic Shrine,' or the name 'Ancient Egyptian Order Arabic Order Nobles Mystic Shrine of North and South America and its jurisdiction,' " or using any of the "emblems, insignia, bridges, and head covering or any colorable imitation of any "raternity or secret order."

He was attached to Company K, Thirteenth Virginia Infantry, was captured, refused to take the oath of allegiance to the federal government, and finally was released on bonds of $6,000, with the understanding that he would return to Virginia during the period of the war.

Angry Atlanta Man with Revolver Cleans Out Street Car and Goes on His Way
Atlanta, Ga., April 13.—Efforts of a street car conductor of the Emory University line to eject a colored man who got on at the white entrance and sat in the seat for whites failed Sunday night.
The colored passenger maintained he was a free born colored American and could sit anywhere in that car he pleased despite the laws of Georgia to the contrary.
When the conductor insisted that he take a back seat, the unknown one drew a revolver, ordered the conductor and motorman off and then told all the white passengers to follow. For ten minutes he held possession of the street car defying any one to enter and sitting alternately in every seat in the car which had been occupied by white students of Emory University. After this demonstration he slipped quietly off and has not been seen since.
CONVICT MAN WHO
WAS IN JAIL WHEN THE
CRIME WAS COMMITTED
Atlanta, Ga., April 13.—Despite his earnest protest, Oscar White was sentenced from three to five years in the penitentiary on the charge of robbing J. A. Samuels, white, a grocer, or thirty dollars. Samuels absolutely identified White as the man who attacked him.
Following the usual custom the white jury declared that a colored man's word was not to be taken against a white man's word and ordered him taken to the penitentiary.
Angered by this high-handed procedure, White's attorney got busy and before dark proved to the Judge that White was under arrest and safe in a local police station on the night of March 7th when the robbery was committed.
Judge Thomas declared that he would have to sentence White in accordance with the verdict, but that a new trial would be granted to correct the evident error.
LAW AIMED TO STOP MARRYING BETWEEN RACES IS KILLED
Maryland Legislators Refuse to Pass Bill Which Would Illegitamatize Lawful Marriages Solemnized in Other States
DEBATE CREATES INTEREST
Annapolis, Md., April 13.—For the second time in two years, Maryland's uniform marriage law, drawn up to deal a "death blow" to intermarriage between the white and colored races, was killed last Saturday on its third reading in the Senate. The vote stood 16 to 5.
According to Senator Frick, who advocated its passage, the bill was aimed primarily at marriages between the two races. For years, this question has been the subject of fiery discussion, and many women, prominent in Maryland politics appeared, as the bill was being argued.
Under the laws of some states, inter-marriage between the two races is allowed, and according to the custom existing among states of recognizing laws of other states, Maryland is forced to accept such marriages, if the parties come to this state to live, despite the fact that the Maryland law prohibits it.
If passed, the law would have rendered invalid any marriage contracted in Maryland, if contrary to the law of the state from which the parties came, or in other states by Maryland residents if that marriage was contrary to Maryland law.
Opposition to the bill was led by Senators Biggs and Robb. Mr. Biggs attacked the former measure particularly, declaring that by this, Maryland sought to extend the jurisdiction of its Legislature to other states.
**KU KLUX TO OVERTHROW U. S. Weatherford, Texas, April 13.**—Speaking before the local Chamber of Congress Federal Judge James C. Wilson of the Northern Texas district declared that Senator Culberson "did not miss it far" when he said that "if permitted to continue the Klan would soon overthrow the Government." The Ku KLux program is first to get as members, sheriffs, then police, trial judges and finally preachers."

A Legend of the Easter Children By LESLIE PINCKNEY HILL
THE legends say children were first
To be abroad that Easter day
When morning out of darkness burst,
And angels rolled the stone away.
For children's hearts are quick to feel
The deadening pall of mortal pain,
And children's hearts are first to heal
When light and comfort come again.
And they had loved the Lord Christ's face,
And on His knees had laughed and cried,
And heard Him say the heavenly place
Is where all child-like souls abide;
And they had often heard Him tell
Strong men by pride and greed defiled
That they could never please Him well
Till they were humble as a child.
And they had heard the tale that grieves
All little hearts: how One so dear
Was nailed upon a cross with thieves,
And tortured with a poisoned spear;
And how the temple's wondrous veil
Was riven by the lightning stroke,
While, mingled with the women's wail,
The earthquake and the thunder broke;
And how black night came down at noon,
And ghosts from graves that opened wide
Skulked out beneath a blood-red moon,
When He that loved the children died.
For two long days no girl or boy
In Galilee or Jordan plain
Could laugh or sing, for hope and joy
In every little heart was slain.
But when the earth that third day morn
Was flooded with such golden light
As never since the world was born
Had come to dazzle human sight,
Then every child, the legends say,
Knew that the time was at an end,
Knew that the stone was rolled away,
And flew to meet the risen Friend.
And long before the Magdalene
Had reached the empty sepulchre,
Or Peter heard what she had seen,
Or fleet John hastened after her,
The children had gone forth and found
The Master in the garden walk,
And scattered lilies on the ground,
And seen His smile, and heard Him talk.
No child was puny, halt, or lame,
Or hungry, or in tatters clad,
But clothed as if in light they came,
And all were whole, and strong, and glad.
They throng along the Kedron rill,
They thread the city through the gates,
Straight up to Joseph's garden hill,
Where He that loves the children waits.
They dance, they sing, they climb the trees,
They circle round in ring and file;
They know they cannot fail to please,
And win the guerdon of His smile.
He lifts His hand: "I bore the pain
Of death for men by sin defiled;
I rise henceforth to live and reign
Lord of the Kingdom of the Child."
They vanish, and He stands alone;
And when the women come to weep,
The garden flames with flowers new-blown—
The children are at home asleep.
"What makes that garden spot so bright?"
The learned rabbis stroked their chins;
They knew not yet that love is light,
That knowledge fails where love begins.
But somehow still on Easter morn
The world is beautiful again,
And in each child-like heart is born
Some yearning of good will to men—
Some haunting sense, some happy dream
Of singing birds, of daffodils,
Of olive branches, or the gleam
Of dew-shine on the Syrian hills.
—Philadelphia Ledger.
The lily rests for many a month Within the bulb entombed, In dust and darkness, where it once So radiantly bloomed.
And from the altar Easter day
In all its perfect perfection,
It proves anew the miracle
Of death and sacrifice

WOULD FORCE KU
KLUX KLAN TO PUBLISH
ITS MEMBERSHIP
Ryan Measure Would Not Be Resented by Any Worthwhile Organization, Says Author.
Washington, D. C., Apr. 13.—Alarmed at the growth and the menace of the Ku Klux Klan, Representative Ryan introduced a bill in the House lately that all social, benevolent and fraternal organizations nd societies file lists of their members with the post-office department and their respective postmasters.
The Ryan bill provides:
That every organization, whether benevolent, social, fraternal or political, that uses the postal facilities of the United States, file with the Postmaster General and the local postmaster, a complete list of its members, together with their addresses.
Any violation shall be punished by a fine not less than $1,000 and if a wilful violation, or violated twice, shall be accompanied by compulsory dissolution.
"My reason for introducing this bill," said Mr. Ryan, "is because I know no worthy or worthwhile society would feel any hesitancy in complying with its provisions.
TUSKEGEE GETS U. S.
$2,250,000
Washington, April 13--Bids for construction of the new hospital for Negro veterans at Tuskegee, Ala., will be opened on May 1, it was announced here by Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Clifford. The hospital, which is to cost $2,250,000, will have a capacity of 500 beds, of which 230 will be for tubercular patients and 270 for shell-shock cases.
Actual work on the new Negro hospital, officials said, should be under way by the middle of May, as the contracts for the mechanical equipment and building work on the institution should be left by May 10.
Colored ex-service men protested against erecting the hospital in the South to no avail. They claimed they preferred having it in a state where they would not be forced to ride in "jim crow" cars in order to get there.
United States Commissioner Gives Views on Education of Colored Folk and Emphasizes Its Importance.
BENEFITS ARE INESTIMABLE
(Associated Negro Press.)
Washington, D. C., April 7.—That the material and moral interestss of the whole country are involved in the question of Negro education is the substance of an interview given out by Dr. John J. Tigert, United States Commissioner of Education, on his return from a recent conference in Nashville with the heads of the 28 State and Federal Land Grant Colleges for Negroes. The fact that Dr. Tigert is a native of Tennessee and has always lived in the South adds significance to his statement, which follows in full:
"The neglect of Negro education has resulted in an immeasurable loss to the country. It has not only affected the material prosperity, especially of the South, where the Negro population is greatest, but has likewise affected the standard of living and the character of citizenship, and has injured the morals of our people. If we had long ago made provision for the technical education of our Negro population, the increase in the value of our products, both agricultural and manufacturing, would have been incalculably great. The intangible and immaterial benefits which would have accrued can scarcely be estimated, nor can we form any estimate of what would have been the effect upon the Negro himself by way of encouragement, arousing ambition and increasing his value as a citizen."
WHITE MILLIONAIRE

Hon. Moorfield Storey.

A. A. C. P. and former president of the American Bar association, who will personally argue the constitutionality of the anti-lynching bill.
From the standpoint of logic and reason, Mr. Storey is regarded as leading lawyer in this country.

RESURGAM.
RESURGAM! An unusual word for most of our readers; but one that few will have difficulty in remembering. It means "I shall rise again." And this is the Easter message. "I shall rise again." This is the truth which Easter proclaims, the fact which Easter attests. The Christian religion points with absolute confidence to the historic fact of the Resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead as its chief credential upon which it is content to rest the authority for its chief claim upon the allegiance of mankind. Hundreds of millions of worshippers on Sunday next in almost every known tongue will repeat their belief in the "Resurrection of the dead and the Life of the world to come." And unnumbered millions have echoed these words through the ages all along. It is this faith that robs death of its victory and brings consolation to those who have laid their loved ones to rest. No hopeless grief is theirs, no rayless night for those who catch the Easter message. It is not without significance that the great Christian festival of the Resurrection should be kept at that season of the year when luxuriant nature, bursting the cerements of itsicy-bound grave, should be proclaiming the same truth. Resurgam! I shall rise again. What an inspiration this wonderful truth gives to human life.
AN ABLE ALLY
THAT Moorefield Storey, one of America's foremost jurists, has volunteered to appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee to argue the constitutionality of the Dyer Anti-Lynching Bill is most gratifying to the friends of this important measure. Of Judge Storey's deep and unselfish interest in the constitutional rights of all American citizens there can be no doubt. His interest in this measure is well known from his position as National President of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People; but even that would not induce him to argue for its passage if he did not believe it to be constitutional. Senator Borah has pledged himself to favor the measure and recommend it to the Senate, if he is sure that it is constitutional. We feel confident that Judge Storey will be able to remove any doubts on this question from the Idaho Senator's mind. We believe Senator Borah to be open-minded and a champion worth having. With such an able ally and defender of the constitutionality of the Dyer Bill as Judge Storey we feel sanguine of its support by Senator

THE MONITOR SUSPENDS
The colored people of Omaha are now without a publication of any kind. The Monitor, a newspaper published by and in the exclusive interests of the colored people of Omaha, has fallen on the rocks and is now in bankruptcy court.
THE above item appeared in Volume 1, No. 2 of the Central Free Press. The infancy of the publication accounts for its ignorance. Besides The Monitor, which our baby contemporary will perceive is still being published. The New Era is also on the job. Baby brother, be sure of all your facts before you write so oracularly.

Rev. M. H. Wilkinson, state missionary, left for Fairbury and Beatrice last week, at which time, record breaking services were held at Fairbury. A program of local talent preceded the sermon on Friday night, at which time many whites and the majority of the few colored people were present. Services were held Thursday and Friday nights. We are hoping in the near future to launch a plan for a place of worship in this section, that we might call ours. Rev. M. C. Winston, member of the Mt. Moriah Baptist church, preached and helped the missionary in the communion. Rev. J. E. Jeltz, member of the Mt. Zion, Lincoln, was to join us in vocal selections, which he can render so well, but the heavy rain Saturday night prevented his driving over the road. Rev. Mr. Wilkinson left Saturday for Norfolk, after preaching at Calvary, Council Bluffs, and Mt. Moriah Thursday night, for Mrs. Bets Club.

RESOLUTION OF THE NEGRO MEDICAL AND DENTAL ASSN.
Members of Organization Express Sympathy to Dr. Craig Morris, Secretay on Death of His Mother.
There is inscribed in the great volume of nature, upon every page, that we have no continuing city, but we seek one. Day after day we are called upon to follow our loved ones to their last resting place from which no traveler returns. The living of today, become the dead of tomorrow.
A wonderful stream is the river of time as it runs through the realm of tears, with a faultless rhythm and a musical rhyme, and a broader sweep as a surge sublime, as it blends in the ocean of years. Life has often been styled an ocean, and our progress through it a voyage, always tempted, but nevertheless filled with high hopes, of a safe and happy journey, but a wreck at last must mark the end of all, for it is written, "the last enemy that shall be overthrown is death," and
Whereas, The Ruler of the Universe has seen fit to call your Mother, Lucy Griffin Morris, from labor to reward, we, the members of the Negro Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association of Nebraska, join with you in this great sorrow. The name of Mother is one of the most sacred of all connected with human relations, and when we think of its significance as related to society and humanity we are lost in wonder and amazement, and Whereas, God has decreed that all living must die, and He has promised to be a Mother to the motherless, and we sincerely regret this loss to the family and the community, yet we feel so long as one of this family lives she will never die, her Christian influence will live. Therefore.
Be It Resolved, that we, the members of the Negro Medical, Dental and Pharmaceutical Association, commend this family to God who will take care of them and say to them,
Weep not that her tolls are over,
Weep not that her race is run;
God grant that we may rest as calmly
When our work like her's is done.
Be It Further Resolved, That a copy of these resolutions be spread upon our minutes, a copy sent to the family, and one to the weekly papers.
