Phoenix Tribune key to Happiness ARIZONA'S LEADING NEWSPAPER In 10,000 Homes KU KLUX KLANSMEN SCORED BY JUSTICE HENRY J. SULLIVAN Classing the Ku Klux Klan as now constituted, as "a menace to our American constitutional form of government," Justice Henry J. Sullivan in a reply, made public Tuesday to a communication received by him and signed "The Representative Bodies of Colored People in Maricopa County," declared that recent activities of the Klan, in this county and elsewhere, "have demonstrated the urgent necessity of disorganizing and suppressing this organization." The letter to Justice Sullivan asserted that the signers of the communication have always stood for the enforcing of the law and declared that in view of the fact that "certain organizations have declared in no uncertain manner their intention to take the law into their own hands—it has come to the notice of the citizens of the county that many public officials have been and are now connected with these unlawful organizations." Belief that now is the right time for every public official to declare himself as to his stand concerning these organizations, was expressed in the letter, and Justice Sullivan was asked to define his attitude. In a comprehensive statement Justice Sullivan declared his opposition to the Ku Klux Klan. His reply in part, stated: Sullivan's Views "Whenever any citizen or group of citizens go as far as to pledge their allegiance to the sovereign of any body, no matter whether he styles himself the Grand Goblin or Supreme Wizard of the Ku Klux or whether he be the monarch of any foreign nation or principality, or whenever they endeavor to establish or institute customs or methods enforcing the rules, regulations or mandates of any organization, country or principality, in defiance of the constitution of the state and United States (thus subverting the government of the state and county to which the offender belongs) that person, in my opinion, is guilty of treason. --- "The attempts of the Ku Klux Klan and similar organizations to substitute the will and judgment of a Wizard, a Goblin, a Kleagle or some other spurious dictator of laws and morals, for the law of our county, cannot and will not be tolerated if our government and its institutions are to maintain. "I have no sympathy with any organization which attempts to usurp the duties and prerogatives conferred by the constitution upon the duly elected officials of our state and its subdivisions. "The people of this community have the right to full protection of the law, which is guaranteed to them by the constitution, and to that end. I am ready at all times to assist them." N. A. A. C. P. STOPS KLANSMEN MEETING IN WEST VIRGINIA Huntington, W. Va., May 12.—Tuesday evening, Dr. Hawkins a Ku Klux organizer was billed to speak at the 20th street hall over the 20th street band. On the car carrying Dr. Hawkins was a sign which read: "Hear Dr. Hawkins tonight at 20th street hall." In the car were four klansmen masked from head to feet; it created no little emotion in the city especially when the car drove up 8th avenue among the colored people. The N. A. A. C. P. legal committee got together and in thirty minutes the K. K. K. was laid on the shelf. When they came to the hall where they had advertised to meet, the door was locked and policemen told the crowd to move on. There was no meeting, and now there are appeals to the mayor for permission to talk from an auto.

She is, or was Miss Roberta Lloyd, formerly of Thomasville, Ga., who now lives with husband No. 1 at 30th and Orange avenue. The matrimonial adventures of Miss Lloyd began when she married Rev. Cotton in Georgia. She subsequently went to Alabama and there met and married Austin Pickett. She soon left husband No. 2 and came to Cleveland, where she met and married George Elliott. Not satisfied, however, with her third matrimonial venture, she soon married Rev. Gaines, pastor of A. M. E. Zion church, West Side. The last wedding occurred on January 8th. Soon husband No. 4 took ill, and while he was in the hospital husband No. 1, who had lost track of his miscreant spouse, suddenly discovered that Mrs. Gaines of the West Side was none other than the missing Mrs. Cotton. Help from the police department was requested and the erstwhile Mrs. Gaines was hustled to the home of Rev. Cotton, where she now resides. Rev. Gaines, the latest husband, in commenting on the manner in which he was swept off his feet by the marrying dame, said: "I met Miss Lloyd and in three weeks I had decided to make her my wife. Friends of hers declare that when she took my laundry to Rocky River, she washed my underwear in water in which she had first placed pebbles, black pepper and salt. This was said to have worked a charm which resulted in capturing me. "Whatever the charm was," continued Rev. Gaines, "that made four men take Miss Lloyd to the altar is yet to be determined, but at any rate the law is going to have its say," he concluded. NEGRO RACE PLAYS AN IMPORTANT PART IN THE BIBLE. AVERS NEGRO RACE PLAYS AN IMPORTANT PART IN THE BIBLE. AVERS (Special to The Tribune) Tampa, Fla., May 12.—Dr. A. P. Holly, son of the late Bishop Holly, exconsul for the Republic of Haiti to the Bahamas, and widely known as a lecturer, of rare ability and as a physician of extraordinary medical skill, spoke on April 19th, in St. James church, before a representative audience on the subject "The Negro Race in the Bible." The speaker was introduced by Mr. E. B. Williams, who with characteristic precision, told of the intellectual heights to which Dr. Holly has attained, and of his privileged association with the best and proudest blood of England. A few violin selections were pleasingly played by Dr. R. H. Mann, with competent piano accompaniment by Miss Faith McQueen. The offertery was sung admirably by Prof. Anthony Major, with piano accompaniment by his wife.

That the Negro race gave a wife to Joseph: Judah gave a wife to the Hamitic race; The Negro race educated Moses; The Negro race gave a wife to Moses; A Negro, Jethro, gave to the world the genius of its judicial system; The Negro race gave a queen consort to King Solomon; The Negro race gave one of the twelve apostles of our Lord; A Negro, Simon of Cyrene, helped to bear the cross of Jesus Christ; The Negro race has given to the world a theologian who is honored by united Christendom, Saint Augustine, Bishop of Hippo, Africa.

SACRIFICE ESSENTIAL TO PROGRESS It matters not how much success we may have, if we are selffish and self-centered, there will come some happening to make us see that we are our brother's keeper, and we must do our part in bearing our proportion of our weaker brother's burden. Today we form the weakest national group in the country, yet it is harder for us to make sacrifices than any other race group. In a leading editorial the editor of the New York News is calling attention to the importance of our racial group combining their strength and energy for the purpose of enabling the race to get its just recognition, and in this connection the News cites the example of the Italian as being nearest, in numerical strength, and what they had accomplished by first the leaders pooling their strength, and then getting the rank and file to bolster up their leadership. How many years have we plead with our group along this line, and exhausted all persuasive powers in an effort to point out this all-important essential to the benefit and success of the race, but without avail! Among us the disposition seems to possess that so I have and prosper, it matters little what becomes of others, so me and mine are, seemingly, happy and contented. We find all sorts of faults about the white man leading us and representing us, but it will never be otherwise until we are willing to lay aside some of our selfishness, and sacrifice for the good of all. We can never hope to marshal the masses for any racial benefit, until those who profess to be leaders shall be convinced that our only hope is in laying aside our selfish desires, that the most good might be obtained. We admit that, here and there, there is some indication of a desire to get a mutual understanding, but there are so many stumbling-blocks and burdens to be removed that the task is almost hopeless. Every individual who can do the least thing to get a following of any number of people, more ignorant than himself, at once becomes a menace and a hindrance, and the moment a popular movement is commenced, unless they are considered one of the leaders, he becomes a burden, and must be removed before progress can be made. The Tribune is making a great move, and we sincerely hope that it may accomplish some good, but it has the fight of its life to teach our people that self-sacrifice is essential to race progress, and that self-denial is the spirit which must come over us before there will be any tendency toward the benefits, which alone must come from such sacrifices.

No matter under what name the organization is known, if it has the welfare of the race at heart, every upstanding man and woman should be a part of the organization, for only in such union can the hope be obtained. One of the chief reasons the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan give for their organization, is the purpose of combatting the efforts of the National Association For The Advancement Of Colored People. Every thoughtful person in the country, had been imbued with the idea, that it was an implied understanding, that all law-abiding people in this country agreed, that the advancement of the colored people in the United States would be the best thing which could be accomplished. Schools have been instituted all over the land, to teach the colored people how to become useful, intelligent, God-fearing, law-abiding citizens of this Great Republic; and to learn that any sort of organization should be formed to thwart such laudable progress, is perfectly astounding. If the colored people are not PAGE TWO to be encouraged in their advancement, it is a crime of the basest kind to enlighten and train them in schools. The more intelligent a person becomes, the greater his ambition to advance, and if there are individuals or organizations opposed to such advancement, it is quiet natural that the sane and sensible colored people should organize to assist in every honest and legitimate way to teach those opposing, as well as those favoring their advancement, the advantages and disadvantages for and against such a move. ored pe expense inviting cordial lishme day, M thing will be to-date trade a The National Association For The Advancement Of Colored People has no secrets. Everything they attempt to do is free and open to inspection. They have no special people to fight, except those who do wrong and practice wrong doings, and then their methods of procedure are by intelligent instruction and persuasion, and not by force. It has done wonderful good toward pointing the right course and exposing the wrong, and every person, regardless to color or creed, who means right, should either join the organization or support it in its most commendable efforts to bring about, not only the advancement of colored people, but a most harmonious and friendly feeling between all the people of this great and powerful country of ours. NEGRO LITERATURE FOR NEGRO PUPILS Every teacher in a colored school is a missionary. More than the mere instilling of so much knowledge in the heads of the pupils must he or she teach many other things, character through pride of race being one of the greatest. For the youth who is proud of his race will endeavor to live up to its traditions, and will hesitate to do mean things lest they sully the estcutcheon. It is well for Negro children to know that the delightful fables of AEsop are the satires of a black slave and that the author of the incomparable "Three Musketeers," which rejoices the swashbuckling instincts of the adolescent, was of Negro descent. There are exquisite little nature lyrics, particularly snow scenes, by Pushkni (obtainable in translation); and it would make the young chests swell with pride to know that these are the work of one of the greatest Russian poets—an acknowledged Negro. And the winged words of Booker T. Washington and Fredrick Douglass! The biographies of those who have accomplished great things in the face of heavy odds! The girl, Phyllis, and the lad, Paul! How much finer for the Negro boy and girl to know of these lives, and of the work they did; to read the burning, living words that are the work of their own blood and kin; to feel that the lowly ones of the cabins in the country, or the tenements and alleys in the city, may yet give to the world some gift, albeit small, that will inspire and ennoble countless dark-faced children struggling up towards the light. Assuredly we will teach our boys and girls, not only their own history and literature, but works by their own authors. TWO MILLION NEGRO WOMEN AT WORK Struggling against lack of training and against efficiency, restricted in opportunities to get and hold jobs, more than two million Negro women and girls are today laboring in domestic service, in agriculture, and in manufacturing pursuits with the hope of an economic independence that will some day enable them to take their places in the ranks with other working women During the past twelve months some decided changes affecting Negro women have taken place in domestic and personal service. For instance, in Detroit, Michigan, today, from eighty to ninety per cent of the calls for domestic workers are for white girls. The average wage in that city for general houseworkers is from $8 to $12 a week as against $15 to $20 a year ago. Women working by the day receive from $.60 to $.70 an hour as against $.60 to $.70 one year ago. The calls for office, elevator and stock girls are no longer for Negro girls. There are still some thousands of Negro women in the cigar and tobacco factories of the country. They are poorly paid, of course, their wages ranging from $6 to $10 for a sixty-hour week. In many sections almost the only recreational or social contacts enjoyed by such women come through the monthly church meeting, the occasional burial of a friend, or the annual trip to town at cotton-seed time. Better prepared ministers, more missionary school teachers and welfare workers, and many district nurses would make the life of the average agricultural woman worker more endurable.—Elizabeth Ross Haynes in the Southern Workman.

Classic as well as folk songs were rendered, many numbers receiving an encore. The singing of "Sing Low, Sweet Charlot" and several other folk songs was unusually good and would have done credit to the Fisk Jubilee singers or others of National fame.

You should avoid ARIZONA The Green Pea Pirates (CONTINUED FROM PRECEDING ISSUE) the race, beckoned Captain Scraggs and Tabu-Tabu to follow him down into the cabin. Meanwhile, McGuffey contented himself by parading backward and forward across the foostead head with a Mauser rifle in the hollow of his arm and his person fairly bristling with pistols and cutlasses. Whenever one of the flotilla of canoes hove to at a respectful distance, showed signs of crossing an imaginary deadline drawn by McGuffey, he would point his rifle at them and swear horribly. He scowled at Tabu-Tabu when that individual finally emerged ashore for the feast. M self rather illuminated thought it might not "It's a rotten shame said, "to think of that not bein' here to enjoy gain" to send a note Tabu-Tabu's boys, as more to come ashore, first mate and one or a men come if Mac still civil." "Good idea, Glb." Scraggs, his mouth full on and vows. So Mr. A man with a rifle and a sword stands on a ship deck, looking out at the sea. McGuffey Contented Himself by Parading Backward and Forward Across the Fo' Castle Head. from the conference with Mr. Gibney and Scraggs and went over the side to his waiting canoe. "Well, what's in the wind this time?" inquired McGuffey. "We're invited to a big feed with the king of Kandavn," replied Captain Scraggs, as happy as a boy. "Hop into a clean suit of ducks, Mac, and come along. Gib's goin' to broach a little keg of liquor and we'll make a night of it." "Good lord," groaned McGuffey, "does the man think I'm low enough to eat with niggers?" "Leave him to his own devices," said Mr. Gibney, indulgent. "Mac's just as Irish as if he'd been born in Dublin, instead of his old man. Nobody yet overcome the prejudice of an Irishman so we'll do the honors yourself, Scraggy, old skittles, and leave Mac in charge of the ship." "Mind you're both back at a seasonable hour!" warned McGuffey. "If you ain't, I'll suspect mischief and—say! Gib! Well, what's the use of talkin' to a man with an imagination? Only if I have to go ashore after you two, those islanders' date time from my visit, and don't you forget it." Upon arrival at the beach the two adventurers were met by a contingent of frightful-looking savages bearing long spears. As the procession formed around the guests of honor and plunged into the bush, bound for the king's warl, two island malds marched behind the two sea-dogs, waving huge palm-leaf fans, the better to make the passage a cool and comfortable one. "By the gods of war, Gib, my dear boy," said the delighted Captain Scraggs, "but this is class, eh, Gib?" "Every time," responded the commode. "If that chuckle-headed McGuffey only had the sense to come along he might be enjoyin' himself, too. You must be dignified, Scraggsy, old salamander. Remember that you're bigger an' betterin' any king, because you're an American citizen. Be dignified, by all means. These people are sensitive and peculiar, and that's why we haven't taken any weapons with us. If they thought we doubted their hospitality they'd have the court bouncer heave us out of town before you could say Jack Robinson." "Id love to see them giving the bounce to McGuffey," said Captain Scraggs, musingly. Mr. Gibney had a swift mental picture of such a proceeding and chuckled happily. Had he been permitted a glance at McGuffey at that moment he might have observed that worthy sweltering in the heat of the forward hold of the Maggie II, for he was busy getting his guns on deck. From which it will readily be deduced that B. McGuffey, Esquire, was following the advice of his paternal ancestor and getting an anchor out to windward. One might go on at great length and describe the triumphal entry of Commodore Gibney and Captain Seraggs into the capitol of Kandavu; of how the king, an undersized, shriveled old savage, stuck his bushy head out the window of his bungalow when he saw the procession coming; of how a minute later he advanced into the space in the center of his warl, where in the olden days the populace was wont to gather for its cannibal orgles; how he greeted his distinguished visitors with the most prodigious rubbing of noses seen in those parts for many a day; of the feast that followed; of the fowls and pigs that garnished the festive board, not omitting the keg of Three Star thoughtfully provided by Mr. Gibney. Tabu-Tabu acted as interpreter and everything went swimmingly until Tabu-Tabu, his hospitality doubtless strengthened by frequent libations of the Elixir of Life, begged Mr. Gibney to invite the remainder of his crew ashore for the feast. Mr. Gibney, himself rather illuminated by this time, thought it might not be a bad idea, "It's a rotten shame, Scraggys," he said, "to think of that fool McGuffey not hein' here to enjoy himself. I'm goin' to send a note out by one of Tabu-Tabu's boys, askin' him more to come ashore, or to let the first mate and one or two of the seamen come if Mac still refuses to be civil." "Good idea, Gib," said Captain Scraggs, his mouth full of roast chicken and yams. So Mr. Gibney tore a leaf out of his pocket memorandum book, scrawled a note to McGuffey, and handed it to Tabu-Tabu, who at once dispatched a messenger with it to the Maggle II. Within half an hour the messenger returned. He was wildly excited and poured a torrent of native gibberish into the attentive ears of Tau-Tabu and the king. He pointed several times to the point of his jaw, rubbed the small of his back, and once he touched his nose; whereupon Mr. Gibney was aware that the said organ had a slight list to port, and he so informed Captain Scraggs. Neither of the gentlemen had the slightest trouble in arriving at the correct solution of the mystery. The royal messenger had been incontinently kicked overboard by B. McGuffey, Esquire. Tabu-Tabu's wild eyes glittered and grew wilder and wilder as the messenger reported the indignity thus heaped upon him. The king sowed at Captain Scraggs, and Mr. Gibney was suddenly aware that goose-flesh was breaking out on the backs of his sturdy legs. He had a haunting sensation that not only had he crawled into a hole, but he had pulled the entire aperture in after him. For the first time he began to fear that he had been too precipitate, and with the thought it occurred to the gallant commodore that he would be much safer back on the decks of the Maggie II. Always crafty and imaginative, however, Mr. Gibney came quickly to the front with an excuse for getting back to the ship. He stepped quickly toward the little group around the outraged royal ambassador, and inquired the cause of the disturbance. Quivering with rage, Tabu-Tabu informed him of what had occurred. Mr. Gibney's rage, of course, knew no bounds. Nevertheless, he did not have to simulate his rage, for he was truly furious. When he could control his emotions, he requested Tabu-Tabu to inform the king that he, Gibney, accompanied by Captain Scraggs, would forthwith repair to the schooner and then and there flay the offending McGuffey within an inch of his life. Suiting the action to the word, Mr. Gibney called to Captain Scraggs to follow him, and started for the beach. As Captain Scraggs arose, a trifle unsteadily, from his seat, a black hand reached around him from the rear and closed over his mouth. Now, Captain Scraggs was well versed in the rough-and-tumble tactics of the San Francisco waterfront; hence, when he felt a long pair of arms crossing over his neck from the rear, he merely stooped and whirled his opponent over his head. In that instant his mouth was free, and clear above the shouting and the tumult rose his frenzied shriek for help. Mr. Gibney whirled with the speed and agility of a panther just in time to dodge a blow from a war club. His fist collided with the jaw of Tabu-Tabu, and down went that savage as if pole-axed. Pandemonium broke, loose at once. Captaulu Scraggs, after his single shriek for help, broke from the circle of savages and fled like a frightened rabbit for the beach. One of the natives hurled a rock at him. The missile took Scraggs in the back of the head, and he instantly curled up in a heap. "Scraggsy's dead," thought the horrified Gibney, and sprang at the king. In that moment it came to Mr. Gibney to sell out dearly, and if he could dispose of the king, he felt that Scraggs' death would be avenged. In an instant the commodore's great arms had closed around the king, and with the helpless monarch in his grizzly bear grip Mr. Gibney backed up against the nearest bungalow. A fringe of spears threatened him in front, but for the moment he was safe behind, and the king's body protected him. Whenever one of the savages made a jab at Mr. Gibney, Mr. Gibney gave the king a bon-constrictor squeeze, and the monarch howled. "Til squeeze him to death," panted Mr. Gibney to Tabu-Tabu when that individual had managed to pick himself up. "Let me go, or I'll kill your king." The answer was an earthenware pot which crashed down on Mr. Gibney's head from a window in the bungalow behind him. He sagged forward and fell on his face with the gasping king in his arms. CHAPTER XII. On board the Maggie II B. McGuffey, Esquire, had just gotten into position the Maxim-Vickers "pom-pom" gun on top of the house. The last bolt that held it in place had just been screwed tight when clear and shrill over the tops of the jungle and across the still surface of the little bay there floated to McGuffey's ears the single word: "Help!" McGuffey leaned against the gun, and for the moment he was as weak as a child. "Gawd," he muttered, "that was Scraggsy and they're a-goin" to eat him up. Oh, Gib, Gib, old man, why wouldn't you listen to me? Now they've got you, and what in blazes I'm going to do to get you back, dead or alive, I dumno. It was fully half an hour before poor McGuffey could pull himself together, and when he did, his grief was super- PAGE THREE Amusements The Phoenix Tribune Now $2.50 A Year And Worth It TRIBUNE PUBLISHING CO.

FIVE YEAR CONTRACT FOR SHUFFLE ALONG New York, May 12.—So successful has been the Negro musical comedy "Shuffle Along," that George White of "Scandals" fame, and A. L. Erlanger have signed Miller and Lyles, its stars, to a five-year contract and will offer an all-Negro revue on Broadway next year. "Shuffle Along" will soon enter its second year. After 48 weeks the phenomenal musical comedy written produced and played by colored Thespians is holding its own with the majority of the few successful Broadway productions; the gross receipts last week being around $8,000. THE PHOENIX TRIBUNE-ALWAYS IMPROVING BOOK CHAT BY MARY WHITE OVINGTON, Chairman of the Board of Directors of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. "HARLEM SHADOWS" by Claude McKay, published by Harcourt, Brace & Co. Price $1.35. Postage 10 cents extra. Claude McKay was born in the West Indies and had attained to some distinction there, before he came to the United States. He had written exquisite songs in the Jamaican dialect, songs full of a love for the simple peasant folk and a longing for their full liberty, he had helped the street car men on strike, he had received the medal of the Institute of Arts and Sciences. And then he came to New York. And though he sings of New York as a city which he hates; we, who love it, can rest content that he stays with us. Hate is next to love and far better than indifference. "Harlem Shadows" centres about New York, but to the poet's heart again comes the call of the tropics. It is Easter Sunday and he thinks: "Far from this foreign Easter damp and Chilly My soul steals to a pear-shaped plot of ground. Where gleamed the illac-tinted lily Soft-scented in the air for yards around." He stops at shop window and "Bananas ripe and green, and ginger root, Cocoa in pods and alligator pears, And tangerines and mangoes and grapefruit—" recall the laden fruit trees of home and the mystical blue skies. He goes into the subway, the city's "great gaunt gut" where "the gray train rushing bears the weary wind" and to him the wind is captive, moaning for fields and seas: "Seas cooling warm where native schooners drift Through sleepy waters, while gulls wheel and sweep. Waiting for windy waves the keels to lift." The swallows fly north from the Spanish main and he questions them. They have seen the children scampering out of school: "Do they still stop beneath the giant tree To gather locusts in their childish greed, And chuckle when they break the pods to see The golden powder clustered round the seed?" Weary, he turns to the South as the land of waking dreams: "There by the banks of blue and silver streams Grass-hetered crickets chirp incessant song, Gay-colored lizards loll all through the day Their tongues outstretched for careless little flies, And swarthy children in the fields at play Look upward laughing at the smiling skies." When night comes he thinks of the "dainty Spanish needle" the yellow and white flower "shadowed by the spreading mango." And in the New York dawn of groaning cars and rumbling milk carts, of dark figures shuffling sadly to work, he calls up his island of the sea: "Where the cocks are crowing, crowing, crowing. And the hens are cackling in the rose-apple tree." But America has a grip upon Claude McKay. He tells us so in a wonderful sonnet: "Although she feeds me bread of bitterness, And sinks into my throat her tiger's tooth, Stealing my breath of life, I will confess I love this cultured hell that tests my youth." He has written two great sonnets upon lynching and two unforgettable pictures of women, Harlem Shadows and The Harlem Dancer. As he explains in his preface, America has greatly affected his poetry at times, but it has not yet taught him to use free verse. Max Eastman, himself a poet as well as a rare critic of poetry, has written an introduction to Mr. McKays' poems. I quote the end. "The quality is here in all these songs, the pure, arrow-like transference of his emotion into our heart, without any but the inevitable words, the quality that reminds us of Burns and Villon and Catallus, and all the WESTERN GIANTS WIN FROM K.C.'S IN ELEVEN INNINGS The Caseys were unable to nick Caldwell with runners on bases and the Giants romped off with a 7-5 game that went two extra innings at Riverside park Sunday afternoon. The Giants garnered two runs in the first frame and the Caseys took two in their half. The Giants made two more in the second and one in the seventh, but the Caseys went scoreless until the ninth inning when White muffed Nevitt's fly and threw wild to third base allowing two runners to score. Golden's sacrifice fly allowed Davis to reach home with the tying score. Quetts then went on the hill and Caldwell went over to third base for the two extra innings. The Giants got to Hickey in the eleventh and gathered two more runs while the Caseys were unable to do anything.

MUSICAL COMEDY & DRAMA The colored performer seems to be coming into his own in this neck o' the woods. Since the remarkable success of "Shuffle Along" many opportunities have opened to the colored artist. Daily calls are being issued from Broadway for performers to take part in mid-night revues and other offerings on the big street. The latest is a drama, which is in course of rehearsal, backed by Messrs. Miller and Lyles. Clarence Muse is the director and I understand that this show will have its premiers in the near future. "Shuffle Along Number 2" arrived in Newark, N. J., followed by compliments from every place where this show appeared. It is said that the offering is as good as the original and 'packing them in' at each performance in the New Jersey house. "Taboo" with Alex Rogers, Paul Robeson and many other colored performers was well received down town a week or so ago. The critics of the big newspapers, while praising Margaret Witchery for her splendid work, gave to the colored performers the credit for making the show worth while. It is the opinion of Alan Dale of the New York American and Heywood Broun of the New York World that the latent ability of the colored people to portray with great success dramatic parts were clearly shown in this show which had its scenes in Louisiana and savors of the"voooooism of the past. poets that we call lyric because we love them so much. It is the quality that Keats sought to cherish when he said that 'Poetry should be great and unobstructive, a thing which enters into the soil, and does not startle or amaze with itself but with its subject.' * * * It is the poetry that looks upon thing and sings. It is possessed by a feeling 'and sings. May it find its way a little quietly and softly in this age of roar and advertising, to be the hearts that love a true and unaffected song." Musical Comedy MANY BLACKS MAKE UP POPULATION OF MISSOURI PRISON MANY BLACKS MAKE UP POPULATION OF MISSOURI PRISON Jefferson City, Mo., May 12.—The Missouri Negro Industrial Commission, through Robert S. Cobb, educative secretary, announces the result of a survey of the state to determine the number of indigent Negroes in counties more thickly populated with Negroes. The figures given show 85 Negroes in the poorhouses, there being one Negro inmate in the poorhouses to every 2,096 Negro inhabitants. There are also two male Negro inmates to every one female. While the Negro population in poorhouses is unusually low, the percentage of Negroes confined in the state prison is very high, there being 711 males and 38 females, or a total of 749 Negro prisoners, or about 34 percent of the total prison population.
