Took Man From Home And Shot Him, Is Report MONTGOMERY, Miss., July Report of the arrest and imprisonment of four white men in Baldwin county on a charge of taking a citizen from his home and killing him, was received by the State Law Enforcement Department Friday afternoon. The white men are Ernest McMillan, Morton Taylor, George Feulner and Feulner Stewart. They were arrested by Sheriff W. R. Stewart and agents of the State Law Enforcement Department and placed in the Baldwin county jail at Bay Minette Thursday. Death a Mystery It is alleged that the man, whose name was not given, was called to his door by a voice, and when he reached the door was seized and carried about three hundred yards from his house. One gun shot was heard. The next morning the man was found with a bullet wound in his body. He died later in the day. Walter K. McAdory, chief of the Law Enforcement Department, was advised and agents were sent to Baldwin county Wednesday. It is alleged that the man, shortly before his death, gave the names of white men who were in the party. The crime is alleged to have been committed near Brumley, about 12 miles from Bay Minette. Incomplete information regarding the case has been received, by the Law Enforcement Department, but Chief McAdory said it had been alleged that the dead man had been suspected of furnishing information which resulted in the destruction of a still. White Farmer Whipped Boy's Mother, Slain Boy Takes Law Into Own Hands and Avenges Deadly Wrong—Spirited Away. DAWSON, Ga., July 5.—A 14-year-old son's consuming love for his mother, who had suffered brutal indignities at the hands of a Georgia farmer, led to the murder Tuesday of Lester K. Powell, white. Joseph Green, the young colored farm hand who committed the crime, says he shot Powell down when he found him beating his mother, Mrs. Sarah Green, with a stick. Powell had been annoying the mother of the little family he came to see. The victim would visit Mrs. Green on the pretext of seeing about some work. On the day of the crime Mrs. Green says Powell became angry because she "talked up" to him and he picked up a stick and struck her severely until her cries brought her son to the rescue. Young Joseph joined in the scuffle with a single-barrel shot gun, which Powell grabbed by the muzzle. The boy says he fired the shot during the scuffle. The mother of the boy and two sisters are in Terrell county jail, and Joseph has been spirited away by officers and placed in jail at some other point for safe keeping. 2,000,000 Visitors Expected in Chicago CHICAGO, ILL., July 4. More than 2,000,000 visitors are expected in Chicago this summer in attendance at the various conventions to be held here. The city is alive with interest in making preparations for extending the glad hand of hospitality as only Chicago can do it. Mrs. L. Douglass Holt To Wed Again, Rumor CHICAGO, Ill., July 4—Mrs. Lena Daughlass Holt, musician, music critic and widow of the late George Holt, is soon to be married to Joseph Ray, according to announcements here. Following the marriage, their honey-moon will be spent in Paris, France, and other European centers. life Behind the Walls of by Inmates But will the Public heed our call and come within our sphere, And ply the brutal cases of our young and old in years?

A Letter 7 Being under the impression that your paper is going to publish a series of articles on the tortures of life in this, the Western Penitentiary for the State of Pennsylvania, I think it proper to inform you of a few things that I believe will be overlooked and something that I believe will be a fitting climax. I heard a prayer today and it honestly made every one of us pris- (Continued on Page 7, Col. 6.) In a letter to his personal friend, Byron Peters, written a few days before his death, Marcus W. Newman showed his evident resignation to his fate, and his preparation for his execution: Just thought I would drop you a line or two for old time's sake. I hope that you have been well and enjoying life. I am feeling O. K., and all things considered, am all right. I want to thank you heartily, Byron, for your unselfish efforts in my behalf. I am deeply indebted to you, and while I cannot return the favor in this world, I can, at least, ask that God will bless you and yours and that the best that life affords shall be your lot. I went to Confession yesterday and this morning to Holy Communion. I feel so much better for having done so and I am sorry, now, that I delayed so long. I wish that you would thank Irma and Mrs. Fox for all they have done for me and all others who have helped me or wished me well. My best regards to all whom you think would care for regards from one in my predicament. My race will soon be run now; and when I thunder down the stretch, across the final wire and look the Great Judge in the face, I hope that all will be well with me. My love to Marg and little Byron. You never know, it seems, what's coming to you in this world. Surely there is a destiny that shapes our end—an hour, a place and a time appointed for us all. Well, old-timer, good bye and good luck and many thanks. I know that your prayers go with me. Your friend, in reasonable unguess to court a hand, proclaims and admires contacts with him. His juncture and high borne stayed with him until the end. At the time of his sentence, death last November, he gaily strode out of the court room with head erect and the most composed man in the room. When being taken from the jail, Saturday morning, he was smiling and waving to his friends and acquaintances. He even took the time to pull up his trousers at the knees to prevent bagging. A deputy sheriff on the way to the Pennsylvania station, said to him, "Marcus, don't give up hope; a man always has a chance." "I'll give you a nickel for mine," was Newman's quick rejoinder. On the way to Bellefonte on the train, the deputies tried in vain to get him to talk. Deputy Sheriff Meyer Van Lewen, a real human kind of a fellow, who has taken scores of condemned men up to Bellefonte or that fatal trip, says Newman did not say 20 words during the four hours' ride. Once Van Lewen said, he tried to get expression from him in order to relieve the monotony and said, "What do you think, Newman, was the most damaging part of the evidence against you; what part convicted you in your estimation?" Newman coldly replied: "I never analyzed it." It is generally the custom to provide a good meal-right from the diners to condemned men on the way to Rockview, and due to the fact that the jail fare hardly compares with the food provided railroad passengers, prisoners generally partake heartily of the chance for a sumptuous meal. Newman ordered iced cantaloupe and Roquefort cheese. WHITFIELD, CAPTURED IN DETROIT. ON 'HUNGER-STRIKE' Dear Friend Byron: Just thought I would drop sake. I hope that you have been feeling O.

CLEVELAND, O., July 4—John Leonard Whitfield, during "iron-nerved" fugitive and love bandit, captured in Detroit last week and held on a charge of murder in connection with the killing of a white policeman here two months ago, is in prison after one of the most exciting and sensational man hunts in years. Stoically maintaining his innocence of the murder, though weak from a "hunger strike," which has already gone more than five days, Whitfield continues to prove an enigma as every effort of the police to wring a confession from the man fails. Use of the third-degree method and constant questioning has failed to break through that smiling mask which so effectively reveals every sign of emotion, and a new quiz, to center on the prisoner's pistol, now in possession of the police, and which Whitfield admits is his, is being planned. Weak from Lack of Food. Weak From Lack of Food Haggard and with his countenance snowing the strain of his lengthy self-imposed fast. Whitfield, when not before police officials, sleeps almost constantly or paces the narrow confines of his cell, in constant view of the extra number of guarriers who have been placed about the cell, to see that no attempt at suicide is made. Whitfield took a sip of water at 10:30 A. M. and about three more at moon, but, he rejected his breakfast of stewed prunes, black coffee and bread: Saturday morning.

Whiffield has already engaged legal talent. over it was offered, but since then he has passed it. up. Divided As to Motive Authorities were divided; in their opinions as to his motive in going on a hunger strike, some believing it his desire to be taken to a hospital ward, where his chances of escape would be multiplied a hundred times, and others thinking it a downright attempt at suicide. The belief that it might be an attempt at suicide was backed by statements the prisoner had previously made, both to his wife and to Detective Conroy. To both of them he intimated that he "would not be here very long." Prosecutor Stanton said that forcible feeding is not contemplated at this time. Condemns White Press Whiffield bitterly condemned the newspapers, both for the articles they have printed about him and for the pictures published. "All of this stuff that has been printed about me is a d—n—lie" he said to Deputy Sheriff Crist Miller. "The newspapers have not been fair to me." Captured Near Detroit. "I didn't escape from the police at Madison, Wis. They told me they didn't want me any more, and I walked away from them."

Sir: Resolutions adopted on June 18th at a mass meeting held at the John Wesley A. M. E. Zion Church, forwarded to the President of the United States, have been referred to this Bureau for reply. It is the policy of the Bureau to man the hospital at Tuskegee with a complete colored staff. Every effort is being made to secure qualified medical, technical and non-technical personnel to fill the positions in the various departments. The hospital is being operated by white physicians who have been temporarily transferred from other institutions. As soon as a colored staff can be secured the white officers now on duty will be replaced. Colored dentists are now being assigned to the station; colored physicians, however, will not be assigned to duty until a complete staff is available. The National Medical Association has been requested to submit a list of qualified physicians capable of operating the hospital in order that there may be as little delay as possible in arranging a permanent staff for this institution.

SAVANNAH, Ga., July 4.—Walter Lee, charged with attacking a white woman on Monday, two weeks ago, was found guilty here Friday and sentenced to be hanged August 3, as another example of Southern "justice." Judge Meldrim stated from the bench that the law had been vindicated in the speedy trial and conviction of the defendant. When Lee was captured and incarcerated in the Chatham County Jail, a mob made an attempt to storm the jail and take the prison. In the trouble that ensued, one man was killed and another had his arm shot off. Martial law was declared and remained in effect for several days. Lee was brought from the jail to the court house under heavy guard. Sheriff Dixon, his deputies and the county police force being in attendance. DOOMED MAN GOES CALMLY TO DEATH FOR KILLING CLERK Stoical to End, Newman Appears Unconcerned As He Is Taken From County Jail—Waves Good-Bye to Friends. (The Pittsburgh Courier's Special Service) BELLEFONTE, P.A., July 3.—Exhibiting all the debonair, indifferent, mannerisms, and withal, the supreme fortitude that has characterized his general demeanor, since his arrest, Marcus W. Newman, former postal clerk and well known young Pittsburgh man, paid the extreme penalty of the law, for murder, in the electric chair, at Rockview penitentiary, Monday morning. Two-contacts of 2,000 volts each were necessary to snuff out the vital spark of life before he was pronounced dead by Dr. Robert J. Campbell, the prison physician. NATIONAL BRIEFS To Re-Open Mechanics Savings Bank RICHMOND, Va., July 4.—Plans are under way, for the re-opening of the Mechanics Savings Bank of this city, and a mass meeting has been called for this week. The bank was closed some time ago after it was alleged that John Mitchell, Jr., president of the bank, had misused some of the funds. President Harding Passes Up Race WASHINGTON, D. C., July 4.—President Harding had time for another ill blow at the race, just prior to his departure on his junket trip to the cool breezes of Alaska. The President refused to appoint Attorney Thomas L. Jones on the District Rent Commission, and appointed a white Southerner instead. Immigrants Pouring Into United States NEW YORK; July 4.—Ellis Island faced one of the greatest floods of immigration in the history of the port on July 1, when more than 16,000 alien immigrants were brought to the gateway of the United States in a rush. The influx is intended, it is said, to alleviate the tense labor shortage. deputy anarchists, Wid and charge by the jail in Pittsburgh to the death chamber, agreed that Newman was the most stolid and stoic example of gameness, recalled in their hectic experiences. Father W. J. King, of the Epiphany Roman, Catholic Church, of Pittsburg, attended Newman, having come to Rockview on Sunday to be with the condemned man during Sunday night and Monday morning. Newman arose early Monday, as the first streaks of dawn appeared, dressed and calmly awaited the fateful hour. Father King administered the last vites of the Church a few moments before the summons came for the march from the cell to the death chamber. Promptly at 7:00, the death watch was relaxed as four or five stalwart guards unlocked the massive cell door and beckoned Newman to come forward. Clad in the usual prison garb, with the tell-tale slit in the left trouser leg, and with a step as light and quick as though going to some gay function, the doomed man, with a guard on either side, the priest in front, preceded by a guard, the procession passed, along the row of screened cells through the little door leading to the death chamber. Repeating a prayer, the voice of the condemned man was unusually strong, the procession made its way into the little room where the legal number of witnesses were gathered, and where stood the instrument of death. Little time was lost in strapping in the doomed victim and the adjustment of the electrodes, and death mask. At 7:00 the signal was given and the body jumped and strained at the heavy straps as the powerful current shot through the robust frame. For more than 60 seconds the life destroying troops searing the flesh as the dead- ly current did its work. The swiften was thrown out as the prison physician moved forward to examine the victim. Evidentaint heart action still existed and the signal was given to again turn on the current. The second voltage, however, found no discernable resistance in the limp body and after a few seconds, at 7:14 the power was turned off and a quick examination brought out the clear expression from the physician; "I pronounce this man dead!" Relatives from Washington, D.C., claimed the body. Thus ended one of the most puzzling and remarkable criminal cases in all Pittsburgh police history. It was the end of a modern Raffles, and part of the story runs much on the order of fiction. Newman was convicted of the murder of J. L. McCullough, a railway postal clerk, who was found beaten and dying in his car in the Pennsylvania railroad yards, in February, 1921. McCullough died in a local hospital, with severe regaining of consciousness, containing $20,000.00 worth of French bonds and other negotiable securities alleged to have been stolen from the car at the time of the attack on McCullough. Newman was arrested 13 months later. in. Philadelphia, when he tried to dispose of two bonds claimed, to have, been in this missing lot. Newman, who had worked as a postal clerk and later as a Pennsylvania railway brakeman, was not suspected of having any knowledge of the crime for more than six months after the murder. It was testified at the trial that the convicted man's ruse of passing, as a Jew and changing, his name, to, Kardman, threw the detectives, and postoffice inspectors completely, off his trail. The assumption, being that a white man had committed the deed, insas- (Continued on Page 7, Col. 5). ern States’ Denial of Education Cause of Migration, |s Cha, TWO Flees Show That in Some States $8 to $10 Is Spent pon Exery White Child for:$1 Spent Upon Colored - Pup lored Tenchers Unable to Live'on Sclaries *|Meted Out. | NEW YORK, July 4—Statistles showing the part played by dental of educational opportunities to southern Negroes in brifiging about the north- ward migration, have been published by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 70 Fifth Avenue, New York City.

By Wm.

Negroes Own 1,700,000 Acres Thos. C. Walker, of Gloucester Court House, a lawyer-farmer and a graduate of Hampton Institute, stated that in Virginia Negroes own 1,700,000 acres of land, not including city property. He declared that colored farmers of Virginia have won the respect of their white neighbors by cultivating their farms successfully and by organizing communit clubs and school improvement leagues, which have been real assets. "We must teach Negro boys and girls that the migration must be stopped. Too many are leaving fields of diamonds. Already 10,000 Negroes have left Virginia. We must tell young colored men to sette down and keep their feet on the soil. Att'y Nutter Will Be Tried In September ATLANTIC CITY, N. J. July 4.—Besides defending himself on September 17th against charges of unprofessional conduct in connection with two local court cases, Attorney Isaac H. Nuter, leader of the Republican organization element here, will have to scrape together about $2,825, representing the difference between the $1,675 realized by the deputy from a. Sheriff's Sale of his property to satisfy two forfeited bail bonds for which he was responsible, and $4,000, the total of the two obligations. Sheriff Woodruff turned over the $1,675, less costs, to Enoch Johnson last week. When the county was unable to bring into court Albert Blair and Robert Helmholtz, charged with trying to flee a visitor out of $40,000 by an antique race horse game, and when Nutter, their attorney and bondman, was unable to get them convicted when they were called to plead. Judge Smathers declared both bail bonds forfeited and a writ of scire facias issued. Judgment was entered against Nutter and the real estate he had pledged as security was ordered sold by the Sheriff. Although the two bonds totaled $4,000, Nutter's 25 marine view lots somewhere in Ventnor brought only $1,675 at the sale. J. W.

Business Show Being Planned InNew York City (Special to the Pittsburgh-Courier) By W. H. WILLIS The colored business men and women of Harlem will have an opportunity to bring to the attention of the community and the city at large, the growth and progress of their commercial activities, by way of a commercial and business show to be held at the Renaissance Casino, 138th Street and Seventh Avenue, July 23rd to 27th, inclusive. This commercial and business show promises to be in artistic display that which is meant to be the Grand Central Palace. Under the auspices and direction of the Renaissance Casino with Mr. William H. Roach as general manager, this exhibition and business show promises to be the most healthy demonstration of the integrity of our colored business men and women. It is expected that colored manufacturers and business men throughout the country will avail themselves of this wonderful opportunity to display their particular line under the atmosphere of the beautiful Renaissance Casino. The booths for exhibition will be beautifully decorated and everything will be in keeping with the well-known and highly admired artistic effect of the Renaissance. This exhibition and business show will be under the personal supervision and direction of a committee composed of business men, of which Mr. William H. Roach, proprietor and general manager of said Casino, will be the chairman. According to the well-known reputation which Mr. Roach has earned for doing things in a high-class manner, all of the business men and women, professional or otherwise, feel confident that for the first time in the business career, the opportunity will be given them the chance it is given the business men by the various shows, given at the Grand Central Palace. Colorled manufacturers and business men and women throughout the country are urged to make immediate application for exhibit space and for all other information required, as the Casino is limited in space. It will be highly necessary for those desiring to take advantage THREE of this opportunity to communicate immediately with the chairman, William H. Roach, Renaissance Casino Building, 148 West 138th St, New York City, 1205 Seventh Avenue, New York City.

Mr. Mitchell, resigning, issued the following statement: No sooner than the receivership of the Grand Lodge of Virginia is ended, I will be the Grand Chancellor again, and furthermore the Grand Lodge of Virginia will not accept the proposition of the Supreme Lodge offered by Supreme Chancellor Green."

The charming and beautiful Miss Dorothy Jennings, youngest daughter of Mrs. Dolly S. Jennings, of an army Ken long a resident of the Windsy City, was introduced Saturday night by her grandmother, Mrsella V. Smith to Chicago's elite "400". This unique affair on the South side of Chicago took the recent history of Chicago society. I refer to the introduction of Miss Lolita Armour, youngest daughter of Mrs. J. Orden Armour by her grandmother, Mrs. D. Armour, Sr., of Chicago, for a few years ago. We hope Dorothy will be equally as happy some day as Lolita, with as distinguished a life partner as the young John T. Mitchel, Jr., of nank tank units, of charm, if loveliness, or if beauty, our guess is that Dorothy will win hands down. Miss Dorothy Jennings dobut at the palace Vincennes eclipsed even that institution's national reputation for splendor and distinct tone; it was an individual triumph on the N- was a prominent monarch. N- was a nationally representative group of America's fairest and greatest, but it was no one's party, but vivacious, captivating, smiling, amenable, magnetic. Dorothy, she enjoyed the feel that it was the host night in their whole life and that the world was better after Dorothy's party. The immediate family composed the receiving line, Mrs. Ella V. Smith, Miss Jennings' grandmother, on the left; her mother on the right, and Alone, her sister, who created an equally indelible impression two years later. Their quietly, but lovingly, looking not one day older. Assisting the debutante were Miss Nancy Jamison and Miss Edith Allmon, whose mothers were childhood friends of Mrs. Jennings, both of whom are the same age as Miss Jennings, and whose mother was the same age as school the same past last week. Miss Helen Lefflett, Miss Leonida Denison, Miss Fannie and Louise Williams were other of Miss Jennings' schoolmates who were near her. Vernon Blanchet and Earl Washington, the 9-fifth class prodigy and schoolmate also around in spots; but of course Miss Jennings was somewhat carefully directed by the man whom no social affair of the "400" could be without, on late Kappa play, producer and master of ceremonies, Attorney Dr. Count J, son, Dr. John A., Fagan, Ed Cole, W. H. Kelly, William Fenton Harsh, Enche Auckrid. Among the intimate friends of the family who were especially favored on the exactly correct dist of 400 invitations: sent were many notable out-of-town celebrities and Mrs. Ernest Eleanor, Louis A. Montgomery, and Antonutte's godmother, and Mr. Mrs. Ida Stewart of Pittsburgh, Mrs. Lottie Williams, the wife of the late Bert Williams of New York, and D. Henry Burnham, New York; and Mr. Marshall Leeland and Dr. Mrs. Jesse Herdon, former Chicagoan and wife of the millionaire Atlanta entrepreneur, and her son, President John Hope of Morehouse, and his wife also a former Chicagoan, and Mrs. Sheppard and Mrs. Brown, Mrs. Dr. and Mrs. S. Purin and Miss Mary Alice Wells of Indianapolis, Miss Josephine Harris of St. Louis, Dr. and Mrs. M. Curtls of Washington, Colonel Rosecoe Corkling Simmons and several other their presence were conspicuous by their smile in some we always like to see: Mr. and Mrs. Jesse Bingo, Dr. and Mrs. Robert S. Abbott, Dr. and Mrs. George Cleveland Hall, Dr. and Mrs. William T. Jefferson, Dr. and Mrs. Wilberforce, and their charm with Miss Elizabeth Neely, Mr. W. S. Yerby, Yerby and daughter, Miss Clementine Yerby, Colonel William Randolph Cowan and Mrs. Cowan, Dr. and Mrs. W. T. Williams and daughter, Mr. L. Lindsay, Mr. and Mrs. B. Leweney, Miss Miecie Thompson, Dr. and Mrs. Robert Church, Mr. and Mrs. G. Videll Turpin, Dr. C. Leon Wilson, Mr. and Mrs. Eaves and daughter Olive, and the rest of the "400" we saw some of the gifts, boys; say, looked like a boy, showed us Mrs. Dorothy Jenny is the most popular debutante in Chicago and they will hear the reverberations of her party all over the land. $10,000 Gifts by Southerners to Meharry The Chicago Alumni of Meharry University held their annual banquet and took occasion to renew their faith in this great professional institution, now a Class A university. It is especially worthy of note that we up the necessary endowment. Mr. Heman E. Perry, President of the great Standard Life, an old line legal reserve insurance company in Atlanta, Georgia, now only about 10 years old, gave $10,000; Dr. Anderson of Galveston, Texas, and an agent of Galveston, Texas, gave all the philanthropists not in the north, neither is all the culture or the wealth, and it never will be for most of the 12,000,000. Our own young men, like Dr. T. M. Smith, Dr. S. W. Smith, Dr. N. A. Diggs and Dr. John W. Burwau, made a $500 each. It is a way they subscribed of what Meharry can expect in the near future.

Democrats Keep Promises Before the new Mayor of Chicago was elected, he promised the colored people representation equal to that of the rather liberal "Big Bill" Thompson. Few colored people could hardly be a sincere Democrat to wholly make good: But Mayor William E. Dever has not only appointed a colored man to replace every one who held office under the former mayor, but by adding two outstanding appointments in the Corporation Comell's office. First Major Adam E. Patterson was placed in a $8,500 per year berth, and last year, the mayor, John Attorney, was appointed to the same office. We congratulate Mayor Dever, especially in the recognition of such a representative colored citizen as the Hon. J. Gray Lacas, the mayor in the last interests of our community and his legal qualifications are unquestionable. With a million dollar life insurance company and a million dollar financial institution, we were not surprised on our visit to the new Company, $200 Cottage Grove avenue, to learn that the president of this youngest yet most successful company has increased its working capital from $25,001 to $100,000, the first of such companies to issue preferred first mortgage certificates in less than a year. The founder, J. Turner Wall, has so impressed the possibilities of his new discovery for the instant of his marvelous invention that he either men or women, that it has become polite parlance to suggest to newcomers and others harrassed by the effect of these unusually humid days, "Why, Opal will keep it lovely and beautiful," he intends to mitigate the abnormal growth of this new company when business circles became all aglow with the resignation of Walter Anderson from one of the oldest real estate firms in the country. The ported cash price of $10,000 and accepting the position of sales manager with the Opal company. Mr. J. Turner Wall, who was about to depart for the East, said: "By the first of the year we was but two weeks ahead, as our sales force will thoroughly open the whole Eastern field by fall. Up to the 15th of June we had done $1,200 worth more business than the whole month of May, straightener which no one even claims, to imitate." We are glad to see colored men perfect something, go into the field of big production and to make places for our own boys and girls. I hope the Opal Company builds a $10,000, 000 business. Our sister city, Gary, Indiana, the home of U. S. Steel with its ingeniously humane 12-hour day standards, voted to keep their present Mayor Johnson, even if he is convicted of violating the 18th amendment and getting caught, until the results of his appeal to the higher courts can be obtained. The opposition city manager plan lost because Judge Gary and his colored workers usually win the elections in Mr. Gary's home town. Too, its going to be interestingly difficult to convict Northarmers for violation of the 18th while granting immunity to Southern offenders of the equally constitutional 14th and 15th states.

For many weeks the all-over embroidered as well as the plain fabric model has enjoyed great popularity, but with the coming of warm summer days capes and coats of the heavier crepes, satin and moire are the chosen modes. Many of these silken garments have rolled or straight upstanding collars of fur, various dyed and natural squirrels, fox and caracul, while some are even bordered in this luxurious embellishment. Many of the summer wraps are straight in line, fastening far to the side. Others show a low blouse bodice with a circular flaring skirt. Indeed, these two silhouettes with a third which is a modification of the straight one promise to be the preferred modes for the coming fall. Capes, too, cling to close fitting lines, draped ones which fasten on the shoulder in a cavalier effect being featured to quite an extent. As to summer frock colors, green in a variety of shades, lettuce, Robinhood and almond is popular, together with buttercup yellow, orchids, lavender, rose and ochre. Black and white, too, are used, skirts of white being worn with gayly colored jacquettes, for these practical and effective garments have still retained their vogue for the summer. Many different necklines are shown. The square neckline is once more with us, while the round one is retained. Just now the Second Empire neckline which drops over the shoulder is utilized for formal and semi-formal frocks. Often a high neckline is used at the back even when the front is cut in a rounding effect. The V-shaped neck is used with finely pleated lace or georgette jabots, the effect being repeated on the skirt. Tunics are shown on some of the late models, georgette being fashioned in this manner over a close fitting underskirt of lace. While on the street frock, satin drops are noted beneath cloth or crepe overdresses. ing and dance at Homestead Park on Wednesday, July 25th, instead of the 19th as previously announced.

ATHLETICS THE WORLD OVER Cleveland Club To Be Taken Into National Leagu TOLEDO DISBANDED MILWAUKEE CLUB MOVED TO THAT TOWN 81X Headquarters A n no uce Big Change in Clubs Players of Ohio Team to Be Scattered Throughout League. CHICAGO, Ill., July 1.—The Negro National League race has taken on an entirely different aspect during the past month. The Indianapolis A. B. C.'s, who got away the early part of the season with what looked to be a runaway win, placed here in the down into which position in the league race at this writing by defeats in Kansas City, where the Monarchs took four out of five games from them, by defeats in Detroit, where the Stars handed them a walloping, and again in Chicago, where the American Giants proceed, out of the Detroit Stars. B. C. games, the American Giants were battling with St. Louis. The Giants moved up into first place, coming from third, and the Detroit Stars came from fifth position into second by taking three out of five games from the American Giants, which leaves by Foster's fledging by one-half a game without ending on June 30 in yet. The Kansas City Monarchs open a three-game series with the American Giants in Chicago starting tomorrow, July 2, and this series will mean much to the leaders. A defeat will put them in a bad position, as they leave Friday night for Anderson, Ind., where they engage the both clubs more than in Indianapolis for more games starting Sunday. Stattling the Hoosier club on their own ground is more than a notion and it will not be surprising to many of the close followers of the game if the Giants return back to the Windy City in third place. In the meantime the Detroit Stars, within one-half a game, are fighting on their own grounds against the Cuban Stars, and are due to take four out of five games from the Islanders. The present club representing Toledo has sprung an upset by winning four out of five games from the St. Louis club, causing a big surprise, probably the biggest of the season. Milwaukee is the guest of the Indianapolis club over the St. Louis club. The league headquarters announces a big change in the circuit. The Milwaukee club will be transferred in toto to Toledo because of the lack of interest, in the Cream City team displayed by the fans of that city. Milwaukee will play out each schedule and keep the same percentage and standing in the league race but as the Toledo club. The present Toledo club will be disbanded and in the place of the vacancy left by the Milwaukee club.

Would a hundred déllars be too much or too little? One New York woman recently thought that a fair price. So the New York Botanical Garden up in Bronx Park is the poorer by one leaf of a century plant, but the richer by a hundred- dollar note. Everybody is satisfied, @specially the twelve-year-old boy who simply had fo have the century plant leaf. * His ‘teacher had told him to pro- ‘duce it, and’ every New York school boy or girl knows such instructions must be obeyed. After ‘the boy's mother had tried many sources of supply, she thought of the New York Botinical Garden, and made her request.

Dickson”: that psychic _ scientists produce something’ that he eannot explain or duplicate by trickery. whe medium who will conduct the experiments is Dr. Guzik, a Pole, for years one of the closest students of such phenomens and now attached to the Metaphysical Institute here as the collaborator of the psycholog- ist M. Geley. Twenty-six Frenchmen whose names are above suspicion this week signed a statement that they had observed materializations and other spirit manifestations un- der control. conditions which un- doubtedly were free from any, fraud, but Prof, Dickson, having. “hoaxed thousands of American and British aiidiences, says it is all “bunk,” and that the so-called mediums are mere- ly adepts who are able to work fast- er than’ the public eye. Flammarion an Observer Camille Flammarion, who signed the manifesto of the spiritists and garries on experiments daily when in Paris and whenever’ possible in his ‘observatory at Juvisy, will be one of the observers. He, like Dr. Stephen Cadancher and others, offers to pay Jarge sums to French charities if it is proved that they have been vie- ‘tims of selentific jobbers. ‘M. Flammarion is backing up his conviction by exhibiting photographs ‘said to’ be as tormenting to his fel- low scientists as were those shown in the United States by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. ‘The movement to test out psychic theories in the presence of a man who is admittedly a "psychic trick- ster” instead of repeating before the Sorbonne University faculty the ex- ‘periments started last year by Mme.

Sunlight and Fruit Make For Old Age English Specialist Would Thus Start Children for Longevity English physicians seem to be starting a back to Methuselah move- ment of their own. Recently Dr. Eeonard Williams, a noted Harley street medical man, declared that there was no reason why a man should not, live 120 to 140. years. Now Dr. Charles E. Goddard, Har- row Village health’ officer, asserts that man should live until ‘he is 70 and that ‘no man who is strong and healthy at 40 has any right to die in the next three decades except by accident.” He says that if healthy people at 40 will beware of heart disease and diseases“of the arteries they ought fo get by. *Alany people” he says, ‘auift insensiblg into these diseases, Possibly though strong, active and in good health at 40 they have con- tracted habits, whether drinking, smoking or wotking ffi excess which they continue until they are 50 and often 60, and even then they. think they can behave as they did at 30.” His advice to middle aged people is: “At i5 take stock of your condi- tion and get thoroughly overhauled by your medical attendant every five years.” But Sir Bruce Porter, another spe- cialist,. would begin in’ childhood to produce a long lived race. He says: “Children «vant lots of sunlight and little clothing. It is a wrong idea that unless you wrip up a child he will catch cold, Cold is caught only by inception. When summer comes let the child wear less so the sun can get at the skin. Sunlight is the greatest disease preventive. “Children ought to be made to eat fruit, especially apples, but do not tell them so. Children eat any- thing if it is given to them in the wright way.” LOCAL ARTIST Sun eRe re arene ena ee eae ae hee pe Sees ; ra cal a { ay, oe H oar i te 3 Satay SH ig cc Ee er s Beyisee sae oN ie ae BRO EN icc ND aegis ce ae We re a \ oe oo se Fo | ees | eee ce en | ee \ Rey Beet a I ee ao en eee eee j Peeerers ae Ge ame HOE eee CARRIE BOWMAN-SMITH. ‘A local artist who has gained praise through her clever work on canvas.

IDEAL MINIMUM WAGE LAW Opinions Vary As to Method,.But All Agree Legal Protection Should Be Provided—Amounts Fixed in Existine Legislation Held Not to Be Enough Nine women leaders threw light on the vexed question of a minimum wage for women in Washington the other day. The “question was an ideal minimum wage law. - But, though each of the women quoted in this article is somewhat of a spe- cialist on the subject, opinion varied widely. On one fundamental, how- ever, all agreed—the need of protec- tion for working women. ‘The women interviewed were in attendance at the conference of the National Women's Trade Union League, called to take action on the repeal by the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia minimum wage law, which, fixed $16.50 a week as the’ lowest! pay for women in the District. For $25 Weekly Miss Rose Sehrieiderman of New York City, President of the New York City Women’s Trade Union League and Vice President of the national organization, said: “An ideal minimum . wage. for woman should permit her to live in a decent neighborhood, eat whole- some féad and dress in an attractive way, The wages should permit somé saving Zor the proverbial rainy day. How could any woman accomplish this on less than $25 weelly? If every woman in the country who is working received that much we would have less im- morality and better cconomic condi- tions. Mrs. Florence Kelley of New York, General Secretary of the Con- sumers’ League, on the contrary, does not think it possible to-name a definite amount as an ideal mini- mum wage for women. “Some live where expenses are lower; some have to, dress better, and s0 on,” she said. “But the ideal should contain the same elements— give the working woman aware =u fcient to have more than just enough to eat, something to wear and a place fo sleep! Tt. should he enough to make her feel that she is an economic factor; give her something for recredtion 5nd saving—in other words, suffi gient to live comfortably. Flat_Minimum Not Practical | Miss Edith Abbott, one of the Viec Presidents of the National League of Women Voters, wao came from Chicago to attend the conference, said: ““eWomen are necessary to the working world and to the future of the country. That is the reason, if no other, why the average working wage should be enough to let her live well “enough, 10 protect het heaith, have attractive clothing and ‘ood food and something left over. feenr take time to organize women jn the unskilled trades, so.an ideal ‘minimum wage scale for that class is all the more needed.” Biss “Anna Neery_ of Baltimore, organizer for the Central Trades Labor Union, would be exceedingly generous to the working woman. “Tt 1 had my way, every woman, no matter how low her trade, would Feceive at least $50 weekly,” Miss Neery said. “Then you would see a difference everywhere in woman's condition. Where do many of our so- called immoral women come, from? Not all from the desire to be bad, ibut because they cannot earn enough to exist decently. “Whs, at the present you cannot obtain a decent sroom for less thar $10 weekly. Then’ if the girl earns only $16 or $18 weekly, how muck does that let her live on? No man would ever! tty it. No one has the right: to “shy‘ &° Wott “needs “or shoulé hava: only so many pairs of shoes): stockings or dresses each year. ‘Pay her what'she is worth and those items will care for themselves. ‘We would not require so many social agencies if: our factories and stores paid decent wages to women em- ployed by them.” Favors $125.a Month ‘Mrs. Rose Forrester, who repre- sented the. Railway Clerks at the conference, said: “We do’ not go around haggling over ‘what a man needs to live on; that he wears out so many pairs of socks: each ‘year or that his pajamas will wear only so long. We give him a real living wage-and let him set- tle those details as ne prefers. Why not do the same with jrorkang. ‘wom- en? If men need more to live on now, so do the women. Give a girl, say,'$125 monthly, and she can get along in fair fashion, but none too weil. Even the working woman is human, with the same liking for food and clothing and amusement that every normal woman craves. When you compare her. «rah lot. it is even more important that she have some amusement.” Miss Julia Lathrop, designated in a popular poll as one of the tyclre great women of the country and for- mer bead of the Children’s Bureau in Washisigton, cannot see how a definite wage could be set at this time. She said: “In the ordinary trades it takes a woman’ some time to become valu- able, to, her employer. You cannet expaet him to pay her a large sum while she is going through that process,.I have observed in stores or factories that usually when a wom- an employe becomes proficient in ker -work: she is rewarded for it. However, I should like to see such an ideal wage scale that women do- ing even the lowes€ grade of work were given enough to live decently.” ‘Miss Loura Miller, Secretary of the | National _Womin's Christian Temperance Union, thinks i faa problem ofthe time, place and girl. "the girl in the small town who works in a factory has not the prob- Jems to contend with that the woman in the city factory has,” she raid. “Het environment is better; she has no éar fare and- probably. lives at home. So, you see, the same wage could not possipyy cover both cases.” Miss Mary A@Merson, chief of the Woman's ‘Bureau of the Department of Labor, Washington, D. C.. said: “The greatest weakness of the av- erage State: miimum wage law is that it leaves nothing over to pro- vide for the old age of the working women.” ‘Miss Mary Stewart, Legislative Sccrerary of the National Organiza- tion of | Business and Professional Women, thinks that it is the women of the country who will be able to accomplish getting of the right sort of Wages for women who work. “The "States should _ recognize women as an economic factor and have their minimum wage boards make out scales accordingly. Legis: Iation is the only intelligent way tc create an ideal wage for women in industry. With women of all classes back of it, as they are now, they will get it in time, whether the ideal is $25 or $50 weekly.

The younger group have not been overlooked, for there work by Lovie Martin, Joseph Tremon, Billy Smythe, Beth Olson and Jennie Cobb, Lemuel Fowler, a regular member of the house staff; Alex Robinson and Lloyd Smith. Of the artists who have written numbers primarily for their own use, and therefore charged with their personality, there is Alberta Hunter, the most advertised of present-day singers; Sarah, Martin, whose recent tour was a triumphant match across country; Bad Cooper, Daisy Martin, the colored girl first to break the barriers of burlesque as a leading lady, and Lena Wilson. It is truly the greatest assemblage of artists of the Negro race that has ever been presented in one catalogue and the Jack Mills people are featureting the hardest of the campaigns in burlesque most of the old papers. The full page ads that have been appearing in some of our larger publications are but the beginning of a most comprehensive campaign that will mean much to the Negro papers. They have in contemplation a plan whereby the colored fairs, sixty in number, may be visited by some of these artists, and a big exhibition of the company's output be displayed. This will in all probability be conducted in conjunction with one or more of the big recording companies or are marketing records and rolls of the artists whose work Jack Wilts is publishing. The permanency of the purpose to corral the Negro musical talent is be possessed by the fact that in their advertising they are especially interested in encouraging the younger and newer composers to submit their offerings. Add to this the picture presented by a view of the home office with its big percentage of Negro visitors, the race members of the staff in open evidence, and the case with which them are group obtain interviews with the executive and one begins to be aware that the "corner" will be an accomplished fact in a very short time. It is about 80 per cent complete now with a substantial foundation already provided for its completion.

"Plantation Days" Producer Assembling Talent for Show New York City Has Big Fraternal Parades New Characters Will Go Into Rehearsal at Once in Chicago — Show Moves to Roadhouse July 31. Lawrence Deas, who produced the original "Plantation Days" dance numbers, and those of the original "Shuffle Along," went from Chicago to New York on June 25 to assemble talent for another "Plantation Days" production for Morris Greenwald, one of the partners in the firm that had the show in the Green Hill Garden in Chicago last summer. The new show, numbering 35 people, will go into immediate rehearsal in the Windy City, and will open at the Avenue Theater on the South Side on July 22. On the 31st the attraction will be moved to the Lincoln Tavern, a roadhouse about 10 miles north of the city limits, for a summer run. The names of the principals have not yet been disclosed. It is intimated that the chorus will be virtually the same group of girls that were at the Green Garden. New York City Fraterna More Than 40 Orders Turn Out in Monster Demonstration — Bands Make Hit. The closing day of the Silver Jubilee of Greater New York was celebrated with a parade of more than forty fraternities of the city. All of the major orders were represented. One division, under command of Charles Herges, was composed of Negro organizations. Many people were greatly impressed with the music, the uniforms and the precision of the lines maintained by this division. The bands were especial hits. Monarch Lodge of Elks of the World was led by Fred Simpson with a band of 45 Elks. Imperial Lodge band, under Prof. Charles Porter, was next in with William Seggeant Smith, with a unit of the famous Regiment Band, led Manhattan Lodge. J. C. Smith's Band led Eureka Temple of Ladies of the Elks. Prof. Eugene Michaelis directed the band of Ascension Commandery of Knights Templar, Charles Thorpe of Musicians' Headquarters is the manager of this organization, all of whom are employed most of the time in their showfolks.

Progressive Journalism Some few months since, Wm. W. Kyle became the editor of The Amsterdam News, a New York race weekly. Since then the publication has shown a marked improvement in several directions. The paper is the pioneer journal of Harlem, and Romeo Daugherty has made its theatrical and sporting departments well known to the amusement world. Kelly within the space of one week did two distinctive things. Within an hour and a half after Marcus Garvey was sentenced, "The Amsterdam" had a special edition on the streets of Harlem. Kelly not only beat the other colored persons, but the big dailies with his extra. The other incident occurred with the next regular issue dated June 27, with press briefing night June 25. Six weeks before "deadline" a series Elevated Railway wreck occurred in Brooklyn. The issue carried a front page picture of the wreck, together with the pictures of two of the colored victims. Negro newspaper men are progressing, even as as are the showfolks, and since there is such close relation between the two groups, these manifestations of advancement are appreciated by the performers, whose patronage is an important factor with the papers of the race. From all over the country there continues to come just such evidence of progressive journalism. If the reading public will but express their appreciation for such achievements as these, they will be more frequent, and more of our journals will be encouraged to venture expensive editorial projects for the readers of the race. The more of your support and respect our publications receive, the greater will be the respect for all of us from the rest of the world. Kelly is to be commended.

Closes In Atlantic City Show That Played Continuously for Three Seasons Reported Through Following Split Between Partners. Wilfred R. Bain, of the staff of the Atlantic City, N. J., Daily Times-Gazette, and special correspondent for report of the city year's reports that the original "Shuffle Along" company closed its phenomenal three years' continuous season at the Apollo Theater in that city on June 23. Dissatisfaction between the four principals has been growing for some time. A number of causes had been assigned, but Sisle and Blake in an interview with Mr. Bain, stated that it grew out of Miller and Lyle's desire to participate in the royalties on the song numbers made famous by the show. It is reported that the latter have been engaged for a George White production. So strained were the relations between the people, that when "Auld Lang Syne" was sung at the final curtain, some members of the company walked off the stage. Sisle and Blake have opened a "Plantation Days" Revue at the La Marne Cafe on the Boardwalk, in conjunction with Roy Smith and his band. The opening performance took five encores. Mildred Smallwood, Johnnie Hudgins and a number of the niece "Shuffle" people are in the cast. Among these are Lottie Gee, Bob Davis and the Four Harmony Kings. Mr. Sisle's grandmother was a guest at the opening.

Oriental Artist Creates Sensation For the past five or six weeks there has been a great sensation among all those who have an artistic appreciation in the city of Harrisburg, Pa., where the noted artist, Amohamed Milii, a native of Calcutta, has created a series of subjects in oil which illustrate thing of their kind which have been in this city. The work is being executed in an improvised studio in the Second Baptist Church, of which the Rev. C. F. Jenkins is pastor. Hundreds of citizens visit the studio, among whom are the best and more wealthy of Harrisburg and vicinity, who greatly admire his art and express themselves in the high-quality works, and effective manner with which he portrayed the subjects presented. Mr. and Mrs. Wallover of the city, who have visited every noted art gallery in America and Europe and who are lovers of the best in art, while having a fine collection in their own private gallery. It was the opinion of these people that "The Burial of Christ," the first subject of the kind they have seen, was a most artistic accomplishment in every respect. They commented upon the natural than art and as being more lifelike in form and effect that one feels I'm touch them. Many consider Amohamed Milail the greatest living painter of religious subjects in America. All of his work is inspired and strictly original. Not only does his work present a beautiful picture to the eye, but in every one of his productions the artist has setually worked out the philosophy of our Christian faith which is revealed to the onlooker by a careful study of the figures and elements composing the paintings. He has been converted to Christianity for little more than a decade, devoting all his superb genius to depicting on his subjects apper- tions to the Christ since then, although before his conversion he specialized in portrait painting of many notables both in Europe and America. As a special favor to the pastor of the Second Baptist Church, three subjects are now being painted. "The Crucifixion," "The Burial" and "The Resurrection," for the church. One of these measures 12 ft. by 14 ft., while two others are 6xS ft. each. Plans are now being made for a special unveiling ceremony by the congregation. The unveiling will take place on the 9th, 10th and 11th of July. The artist has painted subjects and figures in the woodlands and churches of the country. THE PITTSBURGH COURIER DUQUESNE, PA.
