These preparations are very noticeable: 19th street and 5th avenue, where two new courts are being built, one of which will be occupied by the St. Thomas Tennis Club. The Cosmopolitan Tennis Club, which has always been the first of the clubs to get ready, has had the misfortune to have their courts taken away on the spot where formerly stood three of the finest courts in Harlem, now stands an end and gaps to be regretted, for with the acquiring of young blood this club was on the way to doing much for tennis. The Ideal Tennis Club, supposed to be the foremost club, has not made a move yet, except for the holding of a few meetings. We hope that lack of interest will not relegate this, the most popular club in the city, to the fate of the two pile as has been the case with the Amateur Basketball Club. And may we ask what of the New York Tennis Association?

"We want to see something unique and characteristic." Assured that there was such a place of amusement, and that it was a large house, the prince sat there to know whether whites could attend. Could they get seats? Was a box available?" The reporter went to the phone in the prince's suite at the Grunwald and in a few minutes everything was arranged at the Lyric. The next moment the prince and princess were out of their rooms and into the lobby, bound for their first colored snow. Did they enjoy it? They loved it, even though they had to sit in the rear row of seats which were reserved for them. They applauded the orchestra's jazzy version of "Mr. Gallagher and Mr. Shean." The prince was loud in his praises of the eight "Radio Girls." And he cared for the interpretation of the "Sheik" haram of the Princess. The princess was given more excited and enthusiastic about all. 1 Colored Fig Longer Than Statistics Show That Jack Recorddingle in Rins Johnson Is Stin at After 24 Years — La ford a Champion At 22 Years Fighting.

CHRISFIELD, Md., April 26.—Human bones by the handful were yielded by the dried pond on the outskirts of this little town, in which the bodies of two colored babies and the head of another were found in a sack Thursday afternoon. "The necrosism" is being practiced by the Negroes of this vicinity, and that the bones dragged from the pond, as well as the bodies of the babies found in the sacks, are grisly evidences of human sacrifices, the authorities are questioning the vicinity. One man has been taken into custody, but without any tangible result. Questioning of other men has been fruitless. Quite evident terror, however, on the part of many of those grilled has been tortured by the tortious blood rites of darkest Africa and Heiti have found a foothold The bodies, dragged from the pond, were of every description, but apparently all from infant bodies. Little ribs were gathered out of the muck and slime, to be laid beside others unmistakably bones of the human head. How many little corpse these bones represent cannot be told, but the number of the bodies believe the pond has not yielded all its grisly secrets. The very silence of all the people further adds to the suspicions of Chief of Police James W. Kirwin, that the practice of voodooism is widespread here, and that even if they are not of the cuit, persons who may know of the practices are silenced by terror, while those who are members are oath bound and have their lice the humane whim of several boys that led to the discovery of the bodies first and the bones afterward.

Stevens Anti- Lynching Bill Passes House Only One Dissenting Vote Recorded — Democrats Support Measure In Body (Special to The Pittsburgh Courier.) HARRISBURG, Pa., April 26. After four hours' debate, which carried Wednesday night's session into the early morning hours, the Stevens Anti-Lynching Bill passed the House of Representatives here with only one negative vote recorded against it. So tense was the interest in this measure, as evidenced by the crowd in attendance, which packed every available space; that the result of the balloting came as a great surprise. So skillfully, too, had the author of this remedial legislation engineered this measure that every amendment proposed was defeated. The bill is almost a replica of the Dyer bill as it was originally introduced in Congress. The only difference is that it is made applicable to the states. The Congress Support Bill. The entire Democratic delegation of forty-three (48) members voted (Continued on Page 13, Col. 7). Twelfth Ward Political Organization Formed The 12th Ward was fittingly organized as a political organization April the 20th. Popular Jerry Reed, of Renfrew street, was elected president.

Extends Field North Carolina Concern, Now Operating in Five States, Will Soon Enter Pennsylvania. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 26. Planning on an extensive campaign of growth, which will put their organization into many of the larger states of the country, including Pennsylvania. the states, has bounded it to the era of progressiveness which seems to be sweeping the Negroes, following the vast migratory movement of the past two years. The amazing growth of this company has interested insurance circles throughout the country, and rival organizations are keenly, and with some anxiety, watching this enterprise, successfully operated by prominent men of the race. W. Gomez, secretary-manager of the company, states that the field of fire insurance among Negroes is a real business opportunity, and tells of the purpose of his organization to property owners from loss by fire. "In many districts the property of colored people is absolutely unprotected," continued Mr. Gomez. "White fire insurance concerns, with few exceptions, refuse colored business, and this has a more far-reaching effect on the safety of colored districts than we sometimes consider. To make fire insurance officials the usually accepted form of arson, and when it is unprotected they escape this responsibility. We could write many times the business we do if our resources were larger." The Bankers' Fire Insurance Company began operation in the state of North Carolina in 1920. While successfully operating in North Carolina, plans were steadily being made as the necessity arose. Today it is doing a lucrative business in North Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Maryland, as well as in the District of Columbia. An enviable reputation has been won by the honest business methods employed in dealing with all its adjustments; made on each fire loss since its organization has been commended throughout the country. The meeting of every claim immediately after the great conflagration at New Bern recently attests this fact. The quick and immediate response made to alleviate suffering, wherever its patrons are affected has come from many other states in the Union seeking this company's service. The officers of the company are business men of large holdings and broad experience in the insurance field, where several of the officers have labored for more than twenty-five years. They not only may be employed at all times on a conservative, solid and dependable basis, but are blazing the way for further development in the fire risk line. ALEXANDER, Ala., April 26.

Scroggins was doorkeeper at the "Last Chance" last December, when a gang of seven or eight men attempted to force entrance to the place.

Principal-Smalls vehemently denies the allegations against Ministerial and says it is worth a three-year fight between the Board of Education of the Paducah schools and two or three "jealous and disgruntled persons." The "jealous and disgruntled persons" are said to be those who brought the charges to the body and in turn made a statement to the Board declaring that they held in their possession testimony of two young girls, who had been outraged by Small, as well as additional truants in reserve. One of the alleged victims of the former principal's conduct was Miss Eddie Florence, a stenographer in his office. Jonius Carrages Professor, University at present in Pittsburgh, Pa.
