LIFTING LIFT TOO 5c a Copy COLONEL YOUNG'S BIRTHDAY WILL BE WIDELY HONORED Omega Psi Phi Fraternity and Veter ans and Other Organizations Will Hold Memorial Services for Gallant Soldier. SERVED COUNTRY FAITHFULLY His Cleverly Planned Retirement by Government When America Entered World War Still Rankles Race. Washington, D. C., March 9th—On March 11 and 12 in the principals institutions of learning and in many cities throughout the country, local chapters of the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity and Veterans and other organizations will hold memorial services in honor of the late Colonel Charles Young, U. S. A., who died at Lagos, Nigeria, on January 8, 1922. Col. Young was born at Mayslick, Ky., March 12, 1864, but received his early education in Ripley, Ohio, where his parents moved when he was nine years old. After graduating from the Ripley high school at the age of sixteen Young taught school until he received his appointment to the Military Academy at West Point in 1884. From this time until his death Col. Young was a public character and was often spoken of as the embodiment of the military spirit of his race. After a period of frontier duty he was detailed to Wilberforce University as Professor of Military Science and Tactics in 1894. From a very helpful tour of duty at this institution where he taught French, German and Mathematics in addition to his military subjects, he was sent to military camps along the Atlantic Coast. Again he went to the Western frontiers. Young was made Captain in 1901, and sent to the Philippines where he commanded a troop at Samar, Blanca, Aurora, Daraga, Toacca, Rosana and San Joaquín. Upon his return to the States his service included administration of Sekuola and General Grant Memorial Parks, California. The War Department commended Capt. Young officially for his excellent work on this detail. In May 1904 Young was sent as Military attache to Haiti and remained four years. During this period he made an accurate map of the country. It is said that the American marines would not have been able to find their way into Haiti so easily had not Capt. Young done his work so well. In performing his duties as Attache he found time to write "Toussaint L'Ouverture," a drama of which only a few copies are in print. Rapidly from this point the scene of Young's service shifted from this country to the Philippines to Africa and back to Mexico where he was when it became a probability that this country would become involved in the European holocaust. He was now a Lieutenant Colonel and in command of the famous Tenth Cavalry. Lt. Col. Young's keen foresight and his eagerness to serve his people led him to establish a school for enlisted men at Fort Huachuchua in order to get black soldiers ready to enter any training camp which might be opened to Colored Officers. As this was done under opposition and great hindrances from higher command, it is thought that that service to his people might have had something to do with subsequent events. The Colored race has not yet recovered from the shock received when the news was flashed across the country that Lt. Col. Charles Young had been retired as Colonel on June 22, 1917. The hopes of 12,000,000 people that they would have a black Major General leading a black Division on the fields of France were shattered. It may be that this broke Young's heart but the greatness of the man is clearly shown by the fact that he never complained. Later when the war had past and his country said that it needed him to go back to Africa he eagerly grasped the opportunity, it is thought, to go with his disappointments to the Land of Forgetfulness. It was there that his eventful life came to an end. The War Department has recently announced the early return of Colonel Young's body to this country for permanent interment in the Arlington National Cemetery. Preparations are being made by the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity of which Colonel Young was an active member, to participate in the burial ceremonies with the large numbers of other representative organizations that will do honor to this great American.

BLACK SWAN PHONOGRAPH COMPANY HAS A SUCCESSFUL YEAR BLACK SWAN PHONOGRAPH COMPANY HAS A SUCCESSFUL YEAR Corporation Owned and Operated by Members of Race Did Quarter of a Mollion Dollar Business Last Year. RECORDS OF OUR ARTISTS New Board of Directors Elected at Annual Meeting—The Late Bert Williams Was One of Heaviest Stockholders. New York, March 9—At the annual meeting of the stockholders held here recently, the legal retails necessary to the change of the name of the Pace Phonograph Corporation, manufacturerr of Black Swan Records, to the Black Swan Phonograph Company, Incorporated, were completed. At the same time the capital stock of the company was increased from $50,000 to $75,000 and a cash dividend of six per cent was voted. This company began business less than two years ago, in a basement room with a force of one stenographer and the organizer. Today it owns and occupies its office building, 2289 Seventh Avenue, where all of its clerical work is done, and operates a factory covering 12,000 square feet, in Long Island City, in the finest manufacturing district in the world. It does its own recording, plating, pressing and printing and employs over forty people, with a combined payroll of over one thousand dollars per week. The report showed the gross income of the company for the year was over $250,000. Despite the serious depression during last year it showed a steady average in sales for all three of its products, records, needles and Swanolas. During the year the company paid to singers and musicians over $5,000 for records made, furnishing opportunities to our singers denied by white companies. Some of the artists of whom records were made during the year were Florence Cole Talbert, Antoinette Garnes, Kemper Hereld, Revella Hughes, Ethel Waters, Trixie Smith, Josie Miles and many others. Every type of song from grand opera, sacred and standard to popular numbers are made. The new board of directors consists of John E. Nail, Dr. W. E. B. DuBois, T. K. Gibson, W. H. Wilson, Dr. M. V. Boutte, J. Thos. Williams, Philadelphia; Dr. Godfrey Reyn W. H. Willis, Mrs. Viola Bibb, J. P. Quander, Jr., and Harry H. Pace. The late Bert Williams was one of the principal stockholders of the company, and had consented just before he died to become consulting director of recording. LAWMAKERS IN ROW OVER PROPOSED NEGRO SCHOOL (Preston News Service) Oklahoma City, Okla., Mar. 9—During the discussion in the assembly here last Wednesday morning relative to the proposal of Charles Page to donate 160 acres in Tulsa county for the erection of a Negro school, Representative J. W. Simpson, of Tulsa county, declared: "You can put all the Colonels you want to on the Committee, but I'll tell you 95 per cent of the people of Tulsa county will not welcome a Negro school." In spite of Mr. Simpson's vigorous expression, on motion of Representative Warren Ferrell, also of Tulsa county, the house decided to investigate the offer. Rep. F. M. Boyer, also of Tulsa county, rose and thanked the speaker for appointing such broad-minded men on the committee and repudiated the un-American expressions of his colleague from Tulsa county.

(Copyright, W. M. U.) MY CONTROVERSY WITH JOHN STALL, PULLMAN CONDUCTOR ON THE "RAINBOW SPECIAL" When he reached my seat the Pullman conductor looked at me with a frown on his face and said in a surly tone: "Don't you know you can't ride in this car over the Kansas line?" "Why not?" said I. "Don't you know what the law is down there?" "I know they have a 'Separate Coach Law' in those states, but what has that to do with me? I'm an interstate passenger. When I purchased my ticket in Omaha, I asked about my reservation, and Mr. Blendorf would not have sold it to me if it had not been all right." "Oh, those fellows up there in Omaha don't know anything about the law down here; they'll sell tickets to anybody anywhere," was his surly swer. "Well, sir, I think those gentlemen up there do know their business. That's why they are employed. By the way, my name is Williams; what is yours, may I ask?" "My name is Stall," he replied. "That's a good German name, isn't it? I asked pleasantly. "How do you spell it, 'S-t-a-h-l'?" "No, 'S-t-a-l-l' is the way I spell it." "Thank you, sir. Well, Mr. Stall, having purchased my transportation and reservation, personally, in Omaha, without any evasion or deception, I think I am entitled to use it." "If you insist on doing so, it may cause you trouble. I'll tell you what I'll do. I'll accept your seat fare to the Kansas line, that is to Coffeville, and then you can go into the 'proper' coach and everything will be all right. Your seat fare will be $1.25. Under those conditions, I'll take up your Pullman ticket and refund the difference." Provided I do that will you give me a note stating the reason why this action is necessary? I quietly asked. "Oh, no, no, I won't do that," he said hastily and quite decidedly, shaking his head, "but you better give me your ticket and let me refund your money." "No sir, I won't do that. If you insist that you cannot honor my ticket over the Kansas line, and will only accept my seat fare to that point, I'll pay the fare, but I'll keep my Pullman ticket and take the matter up with the proper officials." "That won't do you any good, and it will take you a long time to get your money refunded, so you better take the money now." "No, that's a small matter, and I can afford to wait," was my answer, "but tell me, Mr. Stall, will my riding in this car cause you personally any serious trouble or embarrassment?" "No, it won't cause me any, but it is likely to cause you some." "Do you mean, sir, that I'll be ejected from the car?" "Not necessarily, but those two men up front there (referring to two who were minding their own business and playing cards in one of the front seats) know the law down there and they'll probably object and cause trouble." "Isn't it the rule, that if passengers object then other or equal provisions must be made for the holder of a tick- get for a berth by putting him in the drawing room or in another Pullman car?" I politely asked. "Yes," he replied, "and if my drawing room were open, I could do that; but it is full and I want to avoid any trouble. I have duly warned you and you will have to take your own risk." "In warning me that I'll have to take my own risk you mean that I'll be in danger of personal violence?" "Well, mebbe not," he replied rather mysteriously, "but I have wounded you and you'll have to take your own risk." "All right, sir," I quietly answered. "I'm perfectly willing to take the risk." He then took my ticket. Subsequently he returned to me and said rather pleasantly this time: "Will you mind changing to lower 2 and help make it as easy for us as you can?" But "lower 5" he repeated. That seemed to worry him. "Certainly, sir, I'll willingly make that change, if it will be any accommodation to you," I replied. I was not, however, required to make the change, for at the next station a man boarded the sleeper and said, "I have lower 2." Going into the diner I had my dinner. Two prosperous looking, pleasant faced gentlemen, apparently business men, seated at an adjoining table bowed to me, and I returned their salutation. It was doubtless my clerical garb which attracted their attention, for I did not know either of them. The waiter, a clean-cut, upstanding, nice-looking young fellow, a well-educated Kansan, who served me, had learned through somebody of my controversy with the Pullman conductor and spoke to me about it. I liked the young fellow's manliness. Genuine manliness is a valuable asset. He gave me some valuable information and furnished me with his name and address in case I should need him. He was highly pleased that I had not been bluffed or intimidated into surrendering my Pullman ticket, as I was unquestionably within my rights. He told me that there was hardly a day passed but that colored interstate passengers from the east had Pullman reservations right into Little Rock and Hot Springs and were permitted to use them without embarrassment. I was unfortunate in catching "one of the meanest conductors on the line." Upon my return trip, of which I shall tell you later, other trainmen confirmed the opinion that this young waiter had expressed concerning "my Pullman conductor." Returning to the Pullman while the porter was making up my berth, I went into the smoking apartment. I was occupied by four men who did not seem to resent my presence. I did not intrude myself but was drawn into the general conversation. In due time I went to my berth, retired, rested well and slept soundly. We were with in a short distance of Little Rock when I awoke and dressed. The Rainbow Special pulled into Little Rock about on time. With my fellow passengers I alighted from the Pullman, having enjoyed the privileges to which I was entitled as a self-respecting, law-abiding American citizen, of receiving such accommodations in travel as I preferred and had paid for and which the railroad and Pullman companies were morally and leg- ally bound to give when they entered into contract with me to do when they accepted my money. Had I violated their rules in any way, by disorderly conduct or in any other manner then they would not have been bound. This I did not do. I was cleanly in person, decently and neatly dressed and well behaved. I simply presented my ticket as any other passenger did. My rights were not called into question by any employee of either company until John Stall, the Pullman conductor, exceeding his authority, did so by trying to coerce and intimidate me into surrendering my Pullman ticket. His business was simply to take my ticket as he did those of the other passengers. He had no right whatever to annoy me and seek to embarrass and humiliate me. In doing this he has made his company liable. When he was subjecting me to the annoyance of which I have spoken I did not permit myself to become angry. That would have been a mistake. It pays to hold one's temper even under great provocation. Our conversation was carried on in a quiet tone of voice without any noise or excitement, but even so, some of the passengers knew what was up, as I learned subsequently. One gentleman was overheard remarking, "If that man gives up his ticket he's a d—fool." So I would have been, perhaps with a much stronger emphasis. Had I surrendered my ticket and paid the seat tariff, I would have been a local and not an inter-state passenger, in the Pullman and would therefore have had no redress, whereas my Pullman ticket read "from Kansas City, Mo., to Little Rock, Ark." So you can see why the Pullman conductor, apparently solicitous for my personal safety, for he warned me that I must take my own risk, thereby insinuating that danger threatened, so magnanimously offered to accept my seat fare and thereby permit me to ride in the Pullman, but "not over the Kansas line." The Pullman Company had sold me in good faith and I had purchased in good faith a seat and a berth in one of its cars from Kansas City, Mo., to Little Rock, Ark. It was the question of the fulfillment of that contract. The conductor named did his best to coerce me into consenting to the nullification of that contract. Do you see the point? It was up to the contracting companies, railway and Pullman, to carry me safely and unmolested from the point of departure to my destination. It was up to me to properly conduct myself as a passenger, attending strictly to my own business and leaving my fellow passengers to do the same thing. Knowing this it would have been a serious mistake for me to have voluntarily become a party to a surrender of my rights through ignorance or fear. There was more than personal comfort at stake. There was a vital principle and that is why I am pleased to state that I rode safely "over the Kansas line" and into Little Rock without any embarrassment or "trouble" to myself or anybody else, except the embarrassment caused me by John Stall, Pullman conductor, on The Rainbow Special, southbound from Kansas City, Mo., to Hot Springs, Ark., February 1st, 1923.

Whole Number 400 MIGRATION OF NEGROS BRINGS NEW PROBLEM (Preston News Service) Atlanta, Ga., March 8—"The growing industrial development of the South the alarming exodus of Negroes to the North and West is accompanied by immigration problems which the southern business men will have to face in a few years," declared Edwin Tomlison in an address before the Kiwanis Club here last Tuesday afternoon. He urged the business men of the South to study the immigration situation which is growing in importance in southern states to be able to cope with the facts when the changed conditions actually come.

THE URBAN LEAGUE WARNS LABORERS AGAINST MOVING Housing Conditions in Industrial Centers Wholly Inadequate to Care for Numbers Coming.—Negroes Advised to Wait. THE WORST EVIL TO RACE Northern Industries Making No Preparations to Accommodate Families of Laborers from the Southland. (Preston News Service) Pittsburgh, Pa., March 9—The unusual response, especially from all parts of the South in nearly 1000 letters caused by a Preston News Service interview with the Executive Secretary of the local Urban League has rather embarrassed the secretary, and he has issued the following statement: "The interview referred to, emphasized the large increase in the demand throughout the Pittsburgh district for Negro labor in the mills, mines and foundries. In order to intelligently advise the thousands of Negros who are waiting for the proper opportunity to come North, Mr. Clark communicated with 16 of the large corporations in the district to find out if they knew how limited were housing facilities for colored people and if they were planning in turn to increase the number of houses to accommodate the extra number of colored men they were seeking to employ. Only one concern replied stating they were building 26 houses but these houses upon completion would be taken by the men who are already in their employ with their families in the South waiting to be transported. "The Urban League feels that the supply of Colored labor alone will have to meet the industrial needs in the immediate future and that industry will make proper provisions to accommodate this labor IF NEGROES WILL NOT FLOCK NORTH UNTIL ORGANIZATIONS LIKE OUR OWN CAN INDUCE THE INDUSTRIES TO MAKE PROPER PREPARATION TO ACCOMMODATE THEM. The Worst Evil to the Race "Several concerns have already begun to send their representatives South to bring large numbers of Negroes North. One concern brought 1160 men into one small industrial community in 60 days without building a single house or making any added preparations to accommodate the men. This congestion has caused a tremendous amount of sickness, disease and immorality. Real estate men who handle the property largely occupied by colored people have advised the secretary of the Urban League League that there is not a single house available to Negroes in the Pittsburgh district vacant today. Rooms, usually with some other person, can be had from $2.50 to $7 per week. With wages averaging about $4 a day there is little advantage in coming North and having to meet such unusual expenses. Men Should Stay South Until Proper Accommodations Are Made Accommodations Are Made "Especially does the Urban League insist that men do not bring their wives and families at this time because of the serious shortage of houses; and yet on the other hand the League's workers in various courts have come in contact with too many cases where men away from their families have become careless, irresponsible, gamblers and drunkards. To come North with your family is a serious matter; but to come without your family is more than a serious matter. For instance: last week a man brought his wife and children with him from Virginia. He spent the first day in Pittsburgh without getting accommodations; towards GROWING THANK YOU AFRICANS LOOK TO AMERICA FOR HELP AND INSPIRATION C. Kamba Simango and His Wife, Both Well-Educated Africans, Are Speakers at Hampton Institute. AFRICA HAS GIFTS TO MAKE Those Who Go to Africa Must Have Big and Generous Hearts as Natives Are Keen in Detecting Insecurity. Hampton, Va., March 9—C. Kamba Simango, a native of Portuguese East Africa and a graduate of Hampton Institute, class of 1919, who has just completed a special course at Teachers' College, Columbia University, spoke recently in Ogden Hall, Hampton Institute, on African forms of government, police systems, education and physical training. "Africans," he said, "in spite of the lack of highly organized police systems, succeed in apprehending wrong-doers. They follow the customs and laws which are useful to their tribes, but they do not carry the rules beyond their tribes to so-called "aliens." The Lot of African Women His wife, who is a native of Free-town, Sierra Leone, and who is a graduate of the Royal College of Arts at South Kensington, England, described the affection of African mothers for their children, especially for those children that are offered in human sacrifice for the sake of bringing peace to whole tribes, and likened this affection to that expressed by other mothers who send their sons to fight in modern warfare. She referred to the hardship which is brought on African women through the government conscription of able-bodied men for forced labor. "There are today," she said, "226 different languages and over 900 dialects spoken in Africa." At another Hampton Institute meeting Kamba Simango gave, in appropriate African costume, vivid pantomimic presentations of an elephant hunt, a hunt doctor's incantations, and a leopard-killing. His wife described several phases of African life, gave an African dance with piano music (originally written by Coleridge-Taylor and later arranged by Helen Hagen) which was played by R. Nathaniel Dett, and displayed specimens of native African work in brass, textiles and basketry, which had been made by men and women who had not come in contact with outside civilizing influences. She said: Africans Judge Persons "The Africans need help in order to develop themselves, but they also have important contributions which they can make to the rest of the world, especially in the fields of art and music. "Those who go to Africa must have big, generous hearts. The natives are keen at detecting all insincerity or failure to make words and deeds consistent. The African native judges individuals. He does not put many persons in a single group because of the failure or even meanness of a single individual. Africans are carefully watching American Negroes to see what they will do to help Africa." These two well-educated Africans will leave the United States in April to take up their work of missionary teaching in the Mt. Silinda School, at Melsetter in Southern Rhodesia, where they will help the native people realize some of their worthwhile gifts. Africans Make Progress That the missionaries who have gone to Africa have given the natives the best that they possessed of religion and civilization and that these missionaries continue their work of bringing out the best traits of the natives were opinions expressed by Kamba Simango before a large audience of white and colored people, assembled at Hampton institute. He said: "We find that the African is also striving and reaching out to get those things which will develop his happiness and welfare." evening he went to a suburban town and could not be accommodated there and spent the night in the police station. After making many attempts to get accommodations in the city, the next day he was finally sent by a coal mining company to their mining town some miles away where two rooms were provided for him and his family. This man could have obtained work here in Pittsburgh in fifty different places. Reliable Element in South Can Help Situation "The situation can be helped if the more reliable solid element in the South can induce our people to remain in the South until they are definitely connected up with a job and the prospects of getting a house to transfer their family life rather than come up here alone usually breaking up their families."

Not only was he a success: ful business man, but he gave unstint- edly and unselfishly of his time and means for civic, charitable, philan- thropie and educational affairs.

May light perpetual shine upon him, and may many others of like mold and character be raised up to take his place. ‘THE RACE NEWSPAPER Tree wee there a time when strong race newspapers were more needed than at the present. Vicious and subtle forces are at work to dis- credit our people and retard their progress.

THE IMPORTANCE OF NEGRO PATRIOTISM IN AMERICA fa. ONG ee ae ee ee: The present crisis in the Near East again brings to the fore the world as- pect of the race question. Turkish aggression in Europe is one phase only of the ever increasing menace to white civilization, but it is a phase which is intimately bound up with that wider encroachment, under the leadership of Japan and India, which is rapidly developing in solidarity and is of well-night universal proportions. As the assailants of Caucasian supre- macy extend their scope of activities they are alluring the colored popula- tion of America, 12,000,000 strong, to take refuge under their wing. Our colored peoples’ loyalty to American ideals and institutions may be endang- ered by this trend of events. It may or it may not be compromised accord- ing to our application of the funda- mental principles of government and religion to this particular group. ‘The ‘consequences for better or for worse, of this right or wrong application, may be of the greatest importance. The history of the patriotism of the American Negro from the advent of the Revolution, when Attucks had the honor of being the first American to die for the cause of the colonies, te the enviable record of our colored sol- diers in the World War, is one of which the race and nation may be justly proud.

A. CLARK, Mgr. self pertinent questions on a scale he never even thought himself capable of before. He is still largley influenced by conservative leaders of the school ‘of Booker T. Washington. Dr. Moton of Tuskegee, and men of his stamp, are attempting to stem the changing tide which they fear, if too violent, may be detrimental to the best inter- ests of their race. But a new school of leadership has arisen whose thought and activities have already largely penetrated the rank and file of ou colored population. ‘The new standard bearers may be called radical; it is certain that they are more militant and aggressive than their predecessors. They maintain that the doctrines of patience and of blind confidence in the ultimately just application of the American spirit of fair play has been too frequently exploded. Everything may come to him who waits, but things come quicker to him who does not wait too long. Such preachments are daily carried to the Negro masses by an ever increasing and very active ‘Afro-American press which has been almost wholly monopolized by the new doctrinaires of Negro advancement. To achieve a greater measure of eco- nomic and civil equality these new teachers are avowedly aligning them- selves with the world movement of non-white races for the overthrow of white oppression. American Negro thinkers were the instigators and the main factors in the recent pan-African Congress which sat at London, Brus- sels and Paris. They openly include within their program not only thetr own radical group, but all the darker peoples of the earth who suffer from white exploitation. ‘They frankly sym- pathize with Japan in her aspirations for racial equality as expressed at Versailles and in her disaffection over the race question in California, They even look to her as a possible Moses who will lead them and the other col- ored races out of the wilderness. This new militancy is more highly organized than any previous and more conservative program of Negro lead- ers. Its greatest strength probably lies in its principal spokesman, the National Association for the Advance- ment of Colored People. This organ- ization has its national offices in New York with subsidiary branches in prac- tically every city of importance in the United States. Its official report for 1922 gives a detailed account of every important accomplishment during the year. It tells of work on national leg- islation, particularly on the Dyer Anti- Lynching bill; of the many cases of Jlegal defense including the Arkansas cases, the Tulsa riot cases, the num- erous extradition cases, and other not- able legal work; of lynchings and race riots, and of the part played by the N. A. A. C. P.; of peonage; of dis- crimination in labor and hospitals; of THE MONITOR the fight against the infamous Ku Klux Klan; of the annual conference in Detroit; of the Pan-African Con- gress; of publicity; of work for Haiti; of the interesting work of the branches and of the usual financial statement for the year. That such organized and growing militancy may be capitalized by great- er and more powerful non-white alien races can hardly be doubted. Japan ese statesmen, for example, are too shrewd to have overlooked our domes- tie race problem in the furthering of their own imperialistic intrigues. beer and Kemal Pasha and Gandhi look beyond their own countrymen in their efforts to break the white man’s shackles. They look to each other, and the American Negro has begun to ook to them, for help. He has al- ready eulogized Gandhi as the ideal ‘man and the prototype, at least, of the messiah who will free the darker races, Thus in proportion to the divisions ‘and contentions of white civilization there is a growing solidarity amongst the colored peoples of the world. Each new split in the white ranks, with its accompanying disasters, teaches them anew the value of developing a united front amongst themselves. They are discovering the weak spots in the ar- mor of the domineering race. They are learning the wisdom of our own neg- lected maxim, scat cis in unitate. Native Africans are looking to American Ne- groes for help. The latter are ans- wering the appeal and in the midst of their own grievances are beginning to feel something of the racial pride of the Oriental, the Indian, and the Mus- sulman. They are beginning to feel that their cause is the same as that of these races and that recognized coop- eration with them would be a mark of respect and honor especially since their fellow citizens deem them un- worthy of much consideration. If we wish to conserve the present undoubted and often proved loyalty and gentleness of our colored people we must be more considerate of their religious, civil and economic rights. We must appreciate more their devot- edness to American institutions and reward their ebbing trust by a just ap- plication of our principles and laws to their group, and afford them every opportunity for a decent life and the pursuit of happiness. Every State in the Union should rid its own territory of lynchings and riots and by means of enlightened and practical _inter- racial commissions do all in its power for the uplift and welfare of its Ne- groes. Individual citizens must coop- erate in this leavening of our racial units. ‘They must broaden their vision to the extent of an impartial practice of justice and charity, which virtues can never be fruitfully narrowed to limits of race, for they are as broad in their application as is the human fam- Deere ata eran taena a aataananataata a atatataanaatanaatataataaanaaeraaatataats ates a eet eee s $ A Special Appeal From : Creighton University : z During the forty-four years, : i Creighton University has never : : drawn the color line.

The lynching party was beaten off Ly Sheriff Hagan, 11 were captured in automobiles, suppos: edly leaving the scene, and five others were taken into custody in Gainesville ‘on suspicion. More than fifty shots were fired by the mob into the jail, one strik ing Sheriff Hagan in the left hand As the gang approached the jail Sher- iff Hagan slammed the door in the face of the mob, which finally retreat- ed after shooting through the door: and windows of the jail. A 50 foot rope was left behind by the marauders. ‘A special grand jury will be called at once to take action against the eleven White men under arrest, it is said. It is said that the mob was bent on lynching Lige Lawrence, who is in the Putnam county jail charged with a minor offense, for the murder of a white man said to have been shot and killed by Edward Lawrehce, a brother of Lige. According to the meagre informa- tion available, Crawford Smith, white, is said to have gone into the Edward Lawrence place of business and creat- ed a disturbance resulting in Smith being shot to death by Lawrence, Edward Lawrence is said to have de- parted for parts unknown. The mob being unable to find Edward Lawrence sought to avenge the death of Smith by lynching Edward's brother Lige, it is claimed. HON. W. L.

PHENOMENAL DANCERS AT POPULAR GAYETY Stone and Pillard Return After an ‘Absence of Three Seasons. | Stone and Pillard will arrive at the popular Gayety theatre Saturday mat- inee to present “The Boys from Home” as the principal burlesque feature of Joe Hurtig’s “Big Show.” George Stone and Etta Pillard have attracted to themselves a large follow- ing among votaries of clean and wholesome burlesque and their ap- pearance as stars of “The Big Show” is another and potent assurance that the entertainment will be worthy of the attention that exacting amusement ‘seekers give to the better order of ‘burlesque the Columbia Wheel spon- ‘sors. Both Mr. Stone and Miss Pil- lard have individuality of method and tii united efforts have ever been unfailing incitements to merriment and good cheer. Burlesque without a chorus would be “something else again”—and “The Boys from Home” is strictly burlesque. Joe Hurtig is said to possess uncanny faculty for picking talent from a pro- fusion of beauty that annually comes 4p his attention and for “The Big Show” he has selected a bevy of grace- ful dancers who can also sing in har- monious unison, according to reports that come from cities on the Columbia Wheel where this offering has thus far appeared. Irene Evans, a beautiful and talent- ed prima donna; Rose Duffin and Gretta Tyson, agile soubrettes who sing and dance, and Stone and Pillard will share in the important task of Jeading the chorus in various ensem- bles of melody and dance. Among the men who will help George Stone pro- ‘ceed with the comedy are Billy Baker, an eccentric dancer; Sammy Wright, German comedian, Marty Semon, lead- ing man, and James D. WiWlson, ver- satile entertainer. Ladies’ matinee at 2:15 daily all week starting Monday. DRIVE FOR MEMBERS The officers of the N. A. A.
