(Special to the Pittsburgh Courier) COCOA, Fla., July 26.—Abolishment of the lash system in the Florida convict camps has given rise to forms of torture almost unconceivable, in which some prisoners are forced to undergo the "horrors" of the "Sweat Box," while, others, and these last all colored, are subjected to still worse punishment for some slight infraction of the stringent rules. These colored convicts are stripped to the waist, handcuffed to a pine tree, and then placed in such a position that his bare back receives the full force of a pitiless tropical sun. The handcuffed man is the prey of swarms of mosquitoes and other insects that abound during the summer months along the flat, swampy lands of the cast coast. While residents of the locality will not think of stepping outdoors without protective covering, he stands bared to the sun with his back covered by the blood-sucking insects. Not a man is said to have been able to stand the torture for more than a half hour. Cannot Make Them Work. And the excuse of these convicts hoses and brutal guards, who have been denied the right to use the lash since the tragic death of Martin Tabert caused the Florida Legislation (Continued on Page S, Col. 4.) 'Friend' Betrayed Home, Kills Wife 'Friend' Betrayed Home, Kills Wife Husband Then Surrenders Self to Sheriff. ARKADELPHIA, July 26—Joe Johnson Sunday afternoon shot and killed his wife during a fight at their tenant home on the Eliza Osborn farm, four miles north of Arkadelphia, on the Onuchita river. He used a shotgun at close range. Sheriff Monroe Francis, Deputy Olin Mills and Coroner Alva Harris went to the scene, but Johnson had fled. After search until late Sunday they returned. About 1 oclock Sunday morning, Johnson woke up at his home here and surrendered. Jealousy and the alleged betrayal of a "friend" is said to have caused the tracedy.

Present Wife May Sue Him For Divorce NEW YORK CITY, July 19—Mrs. Lucille Cameron Johnson has finally tired of her actor-pugilist husband, and is about to sue him for divorce, according to latest rumors here. It is stated by those who know her that Mrs. Johnson is about to take action against Jack on the grounds that he is unfaithful to her and has too many affairs with other women, also stated that in the event of such a suit, Johnson will probably contest the action. Former Dancer Lucille Johnson, a white woman, whose former name was Lucille Cameron, was a dancer in productions at the time of her marriage to Jack Johnson; the couple met abroad, and Johnson became very much attracted by her beauty. Evidently she also became interested in Jack, for they married shortly after she and people have been married now about 10 years, and Lucille Johnson is not more than 26 or 27 at the present time. The report that Jack and his wife may soon be separated comes as a great surprise to most people, in view of the fact that Jack and Luciille have always been known as a couple who were very much attached to one another. It was only eight o'clock on months ago that Zit's Weekly published three poems composed by Jack that attracted a great deal of attention throughout the Some of these poems were written while Jack was in Leavenworth prison and others were written at various other times that Jack was not handy around the house. But all of the poems were inspired by his wife and all of them were addressed to her. Wants to Come Back Jack Johnson is at present in Marage, N. J. small town just outside of Atlantic City, where Dempsey did his training for the Capybara fight. It is understood that Jack plans an early return to the ring and with that in mind, he is working off a bit of the surplus flesh acquired during his recent inactive days. Note—Johnson, prior to his marriage with his present wife, had married Etta Duran, an uncle, woman, who became insane and died. Shortly after her death Johnson married again, and his numerous persecutions at the hands of state and federal authorities has been charged by many to his preference to women of the other race.

WASHINGTON, July 25.—Director Hines, of the Veterans' Bureau, announced late last week that he would have to go ahead with respect to the Veterans' hospital near Tuskegee, Ala., soon unless he could reach some middle ground with the committee of white citizens of that town appointed after his recent visit there. He has received a suggestion from the committee, a so-called proposing that all physicians and almost all administrative assistants at the hospital be white persons. He rejected this suggestion on the ground that it would nullify the government's intent and asked the committee to reconsider its proposals. The hospital, he said, is being run efficiently at present, with about 60 per cent of the personnel colored, including all nurses and attendants and a large part of the administrative staff, with all of the physicians white. The feasibility of putting the hospital entirely in charge of race physicians, as suggested by the President, has been studied by bureau officials, it was said, and they have determined that it would be possible to assemble sufficient number of doctors for the required jobs. They are not satisfied, however, that an adequate number of colored doctors could be obtained to fill the posts in the hospital requiring more expert knowledge. Washington, D. C., Bank Opens Doors to Public WASHINGTON, D. C., July 26.—The Prudential bank, with an authorized capitalization of $20,000, opened for business Monday morning.

Expose Plot ToSendBack Migrants "Cracker" Farmers Ask This City to Aid in Proposed "Back Home" Movement. An effort to have migrants from the south abandon employment in the Pittsburgh district and return to the farms, was revealed Tuesday a letter received by Mayor William William from Selma, Miss, was made public. The letter, signed by "M. McGee Stokes," said it was reported that 40 sections of Pittsburgh were under quarantine for smallpox, and proposed that the migrants be shipped back to Mississippi, where they were needed for farm work. The letter detailed that, according to reports, smallpox was spreading throughout Pittsburgh, and the city desired to "get rid of the southern Negro," the letter added, could use 1,000 families, and asked how much Pittsburgh would contribute toward sending them to Mississippi by special trains. The letter was referred by Mayor Magee to Dr. C. J. Vaux, director of the department of health, who wrote in reply that not a house in Pittsburgh was under quarantine for smallpox; that only five cases had developed since last January, and each of these was extremely mild. The department of public health" wrote Magee had a working arrangement with the gaged in industrial medicine in the city, whereby all southern citizens coming here are immediately vaccinated and examined for other communicable diseases and a constant check on this situation is made." Burn Home in Effort To Conceal Murder LYNCHBURG, Va., July 26.—William Beverly was murdered in an outhouse of the farm here, and the building was fired in an attempt to conceal the crime.

PRESENT CONDITION OF AFFAIRS FLAYED AT BIG CONVENTION Defeat of Dyer Measure and Existing Conditions at Tuskegee Made Main Issues. (Special to the Pittsburgh Courier) By EDGAR G. BROWN ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., July 26.—Talk of bolting the Republican party until the Negro gets fair treatment, carrying a "veiled threat" to use political pressure in an effort to have an Anti-Lynch law passed, was frequently heard here last Friday and Saturday during the two-day meeting of the National Convention. With leaders in political life from the Republican in attendance, the Congressional delegation met the most vigorous voices, the most affectionate months in perfecting the political groups, and to arouse concerted action to bring about political pressure for the interests of the race. Objections to distranchisement, Jim Crow Acts, Peanuts and other discriminations were voiced during the conference. Cool Reception-to-Edge A decidedly cool reception was given Senator Walter Edge Friday by the senator to endorse a political convention held by colored voters since 1918. Only one of the 20 members of the resolutions committee emerged from the private room in which they were meeting when Senator Edge's arrival in the main auditorium was announced. All, however, listened attentively to his defense of the Harding Administration's plan for continued patience under rather trying situation, the latest being the Tuskegee wangle. Margate Page, of the New Jersey delegation, in his address replying to the Senator's words of welcome, got somewhat away from his main subject and brought up the absence of Mr. Edge on the second bill in the Senate. Whereupon the Senator, evidently somewhat embarrassed, retired somewhat seriously and did not return. (Continued on Page 8. Clo Baltimore Attempts To Segregate Homes Baltimore Attempts To Segregate Homes BALTIMORE, Md., July 26. The race issue, once set aside by higher courts as to residential qualifications, was raised again last week when Harry H. Burns and his wife, with the Harlem Park Protective Association, applied through Webb Hall for fellow candidates against Abraham Williams, 181th Caroline street, and Elford Barton, 810 North Gilmor street. The complaint is that Williams entered into an agreement with the association whereby he would not sell or rent property to colored residents in the 800 block North Gilmore street. Some years ago the higher courts ruled that a measure after a measure had been passed in the city council restraining residence in city blocks where there was a majority of white residents. Two Chicago Men Face Manslaughter Charge CHICAGO, Ill., July 26—Wallace Grant and Joseph Smith, of this city, whom the police claim, owned the still that is said to have caused the fire in a tenement house several weeks ago, that resulted in the death of people, were held to the grand jury Wednesday on a charge of man-slaughter. The charge was made by the coroner's jury investigating the fire. Whitfield On Trial In Cleveland CLEVELAND, O., July 26.—John Leonard Whitfield, "phantom" fugitive, who led the police of four states a merry chase before he was captured, went on trial Monday morning charged with killing a white policeman. Marie Price, Whitfield's white "paramour," will testify some time this week, it is said. Four-Year-Old Boy Poisoned By Neighbors Foreigners Thought to Have Thrown Poison Meat in Child's Soup. NEW YORK July 25—Four-year-old Joseph Stanford, shunned and hated by parents of his white playmates at 116 East 2nd Street, sat on the fire escape of his mother's tenement home Wednesday, drinking soup. Yesterday little Joseph was said to be in a dying condition at the Babies' Hospital. While Joseph was innocently eating his soup, it is charged that some white fecal from an adjoining fire escape closely tossed bits of meat into the child's mouth, it is alleged, had been soaked in milk. Mrs. Marie Stanford, mother of Joseph, attributed this revolting deed to Baldasari Moreale, 59 years old and himself, the father of 11 children, and an alien of Italian birth who has apparently fully imbibed the anglo-saxon hatred of the race which pervades the United States and South Africa but is absolutely absent in the Latin countries of Europe. Mrs. Stanford recited a long list of alleged neighborhood persecutions suffered by her and her 4 little ones since she went to live at 116 East 2nd St. At first, she said, she was notified that no colored people would be tolerated there. When she refused to move, she added, her doors was blocked with three barrels of ashes. She had to climb down the fire escape. Mrs. Stanford complained to the police and the barrels were removed. But other forms of annoyance, she alleges, were substituted to make her life a very unhappy life. She lived in the neighborhood, she said, because she was not able to pay the exorbitant rent in the colored sections, as she was the sole support of her four children. Meat, alleged to have been thrown into the child's soup, has been placed with expert chemists for analysis, following the diagnosis of the attending physician that the boy was suffering from rat poison. WASHINGTON, D. C., July 25- Washington police pursuing two colored bootleggers at 65 miles an hour early this morning were folled when the bootleger car shot mustard油 from its exhaust.

TWO (Crusader Service) PARIS, July 26.—White Americans must check the "color line" at the three-mile limit. American capitalists and petty bourgeoisie, touring France, have caused a furore in Paris—where the color line does not exist—because they resent the presence of French colonial Negroes as guests and customers in cafes, restaurants, hotels, trains and sight-seeking buses. So indignant are the Colored residents of Paris over this attitude of the boorish anglo-saxons that Deputy Diagne, representing Senegal, the home of Battling Ski, the tistic conqueror of "the best blood of Europe," has proclaimed to Premier Poincaré asking the government to take some action to show the impudent Americans "their place." Deputy Diagne, in a letter to Poincaré, refers specifically to the row caused by the boorish Americans they found that several Senegalese had booked-passage on the same sight-seeing bus which was to convey their little tin-god majesties to the battlefields. "Too many Americans," stated the deputy, "are running loose in our boulevards trying to enforce their savage customs on the French gentlemen of color. It is necessary that the police intervene to make the Americans, who are here as the guests of France, respect the rights of every citizen." There are frequent rows created by the crackers in Montmartre cafes because the management permits dancing between white girls and Negro men. A significant reaction to the activities of white Americans in spreading the color line in Montmartre Negroes and attempting to institute the "color line" in Paris as they have instituted it in Cuba and one or two South American countries, occurred the other evening at concert where there was present a large number of black and white Americans. At the conclusion of the concert, the white Americans burst forth into the "Star Spangled Banner," while the "Colored Americans" were still silent. Noticing this, one of the leaders of the white Americans hollered out to the Colored "citizens" of the United States to join in "in your national anthem."

Gilbert Jones, 38, of South Jacksonville, was badly cut by his wife, Carrie Jones, a pretty creole, when he remonstrated with her late Saturday night about keeping company with another man, Arthur Reid. In the scuffle between husband and wife, the woman was slightly cut, sustaining a flesh wound in the neck. The fight occurred in a house near the Painter Fertilizer Company. He waved his hands, conductor-fashion, and his companions held their voices to give the Colored brethren a chance to lead off with the anthem. There was a brief conference among the Colored Americans, quickly followed by their bursting forth into sonorous, rich-throated song. But they sang of the Star Spangled Banner and the Maraisee" the French national song and in a large measure the international song of all oppressed peoples. And the French orchestra which had ignored the singing of the "Star Spangled Banner" quickly whipped out their instruments and accompanied the dark Americans, while the Parisian crowd which had been speeding towards the exists to escape the infliction of the Ameican anthem, escaped in their presence to the Colored man in their rendition of the "Marseillaise" and thunderously cheered them at its conclusion, several members fetting them later at one of the leading cafes in Paris. Operation Of Local Doctors Astounds World Of Medicine A recent operation for the removal of an unusually large tumor in the region of vital parts of the patient's body performed at the Christian Seminary, 6258 Frankstown Avenue, East End, has attracted the attention of the surgical world by reason of its magnificent success. It was of extremely major character, owing to the tumor's enormous size and location. The delicate operation was performed by Dr. G. Alvin, 7410 Monticello Street, Pittsburgh, Pa., and Dr. William H. Christian, both prominent in the surgical profession, assisted by Dr. James H. Hall, of 2446 Wylie Avenue, Pittsburgh, Pa. The patient who was a well-known local woman, was under the knife for over two hours. She came out of the anaesthetic in a manner that was highly satisfactory and rallied in a wonderful way from the beginning. She has gained steadily ever since and has been out of danger several days.

(Courrier-Whip Service)—Harvey Jackson, 24, a waiter employed in the dining service of the Michigan Central railroad, was beaten into insensibility late Friday night at the intersection of 40th street and Michigan avenue by two white policemen in plain clothes, apparently for no other reason that that he was walking down the street with a white woman. The woman, however, who was his wife, Mrs. Victoria Jackson, proved not to be white, although her skin was fair enough to provoke an apology. Jackson by the two white offenders. After having beaten Jackson unconscious, the policemen appeared to be astonished when Mrs. Jackson declared to them that she was colored. On Way Home Jackson and his wife were walking to their home at 4050 Indiana after an evening at a theater when the attack occurred. As they neared 40th street on Michigan avenue, the two policemen, who were in plain clothes, advanced on the couple and ordered them to throw up their hands, according to Jackson's statement. This they did, he says, although ignored. He wrote, "as they failed to display stars or make any other sort of identification. As they stood with their hands in the air, one of the cops without a gun waved, welled up and struck Jackson as blow with his first under the right eye, and the other knocked him unconscious with a blow across the back of his head with the butt of his pistol, says Jackson. Jackson fell to the ground and lay senseless for several minutes, his clothing soaked with blood. As consciousness returned to him, he made an attempt to rise, and one of the officers drew his pistol as if to shoot him before he could get to his feet. At this junture Mrs. Jackson ran between them and begged the officer not to shoot her husband, police are also armed, police are also her, "No," she replied, "I'm colored."

For the first time in the history of the South white women are beginning to understand the indignities to which Colored women are constantly subjected, and these white women have expressed themselves again and again as determined to secure protection of all womanhood regardless of color.

NEW YORK, July 26.—Three Ne- groes on road gangs in North Caro- ina have recently been shot by con- viet guards, according to a report by the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue; New York City. The three Negroes killed were petty criminals, one serving a 90-day sen- tence, bd another four months. The Negro sentenced to 20 days had been imprisoned because he could mot pay a fine of $9.

NEW YORK, July 26. — In re- sponte to nation.ivide interest in the freeing of the colored farmers of “Arkansas, sentenced to death in con- nection with the Arkansas riots in 1919, the National Association for the Advancemen’ of Colored People, 69 Fifth Avenue, New York City, is- sued the following history of the cases: In October, 1919, the, country woke ‘to the existence of stuvery in the form of peonawe on the farms of Ar~ Kkanras.

Armed with a letter appoint- ing him special correspondent of the Chicago Daily News, Mr. White in- terviewed the Governor of Arkansas and Was permitted to travel into the center of the disturbance. He es- capes just in time from the Arkan- sax mob of white men who had dis- | covered that a “yaller nigger” was | investigating their reign of terror. | Mr. White returned to New York Land reported that colored people had been held in peonage or perpetual ee slavery on the farms. Contrary to report sent out by white news | services the Negroes had no’ organ- ized to “massacre whites,” but in or- lider to employ a Inwyer to obtain | settlements from their landlords. Following the riots, colored people | were arrested by hundreds, penned in stockaies in Little Rock, ‘and aft- er being tortured to make them give false evidence in court, 67 of them were railroaded to long prison terms j and 12 colored men were sentenced ito death.

FOUR CHICAGO, Ill., July 25—(By A. N. P.-Colored 'America' looks with deep interest upon the trend of events in the great Northwest, following the election of Magnus Johnson, of Minnesota, to the United States Senate, succeeding the late Senator Knute Nelson. Senator-elect Johnson has openly defended a law to prevent lynching, sponsored by the United States government. Being outspoken on this subject naturally appeals to the group. Senator Nelson's interest, although chairman of the judicial committee handling the lynching bill, was only passive. National political leaders have nego to realize that Colored voters are doing their own thinking with regard to political conditions. At this time the majority of the voters among Colored people are undoubtedly unfriendly to Republican administration. This feeling of protest has been expressed repentedly whatever an opportunity, at the ballot, presented itself. It is known that Republican leaders are proceeding now along the line having a tremendous task before them.

SHAPIRO 1006 WYLIE AVENUE THE D Now is Eo City, sponsored by Republicans of New Jersey, is an indication of the trend of feeling which political observers strongly declare must be taken into account. Political strategy that does not take into account the unrest, and in many instances the Bitter feeling of Colored voters, is regarded as no strategy at all. The Tuskegee hospital situation, with its uncertain future, and the bold threat of the Ku Klux Klan still dangling over the head of the government, continues to occupy the center of the stage. "On the outcome of this sorry mess of administration," says one national leader, "will finally be shown just where Colorgal voters stand with the Republican party." James Weldon Johnson, in the New York Age, calls it "The Supreme Test." Lincoln League in Chicago Announcement has been made that the "Executive Committee" of the "Lincoln League" will meet in Chicago, August 30, "behind closed doors," to consider the Tuskegee hospital problem and other political trends. The "Lincoln League" has not attempted to hold but one meeting since 1920; it is suggested that the next meeting will be early in 1924. Commenting on the "closed door" announcement, one of the independent political leaders of Chicago declared: "That has been the trouble with this group of fellows who are seeking to play the national game—they have, always had too much closed door" stuff, and they are liable to wake up and find, when they open the door, that the people have all scampered into the open fields." Roscoe Conkling Simmons is president of the league; Robert R. Church, chairman of the executive committee; Henry Lincoln Johnson, secretary; Walter L. Cohen, treasurer, and Perry W. Howard, special assistant to the attorney general, an active participant. Democrats in Chicago Maj. A. E. Patterson, assistant corporation counsel, under the Mayor's Dever Democratic administration, has announced that there will be an open session of the "National Colored Democratic Organization" in Chicago, also the last week in August. Maj. Patterson is assisted by acting by Ferdinand Q. Mooton, of New York, a member of the Civil Service Commission of that city.

In this great city there are thousands of Jews, Catholics, Irish, colored people, and many other nationalities, but all are American citizens and their chosen representative, it is my duty to honestly and squately deal with all alike. This was the outcome of the chief question of the city of Baltimore, the largest southern city in the United States. Baltimore is also the real capital of old Maryland, an ex-slave state, where the colored people not only vote, but do their own thinking. But let Mayor Jackson tell you." "I, of course, highly appreciated the vote of confidence given to me by the colored people as demonstrated. I had a platform which I submitted to the citizens of Baltimore and I am glad the colored people approved of my views. When a group of colored citizens waited on me before election urging me to stand for the appointment of street sweepers if elected, I refused to be a party to an act which I think is not commensurate with the best ability of our colored citizens. "Of course, all work is honorable, and Mayor Howard Jackson will not be the one to object to the appointment of colored men who are recommended by the Civil Service Board, but I think under my administration the colored citizens will be given greater consideration in the work of several outstanding appointments." Undoubtedly one of these appointments will be the recommendation by the Mayor of a colored superintendent of schools, as Mayor Jackson continued: "I believe in higher education for the colored children of Baltimore, because I saw with my own eyes that great class of one hundred and forty-two graduate from the high school in June, and I was pleased to hand each one his diploma. The following day I consulted the statistics of the colored children's attendance for the last ten years and I was more convinced than ever that the greatest service for the city of Baltimore lies in the promotion of further educational opportunities, especially in encouraging the boys and girls to go to high school. The new $100,000 administration the school will be pledged to immediate completion and in all matters affecting the civic and educational life of the 140,000 colored citizens, of Baltimore. I shall freely advise with the colored people themselves because they understand their own problems best." It takes courage to stand for greater opportunities for the black and despised ox-slave children of Maryland and in Baltimore particularly, where there is not even a Republican paper; but when a Democrat in public life stands unequivocal for a square deal, regardless of color, it is no wonder the colored citizens of Baltimore broke away from all traditions and voted to elect a 100 per cent. American gentleman and scholar, Howard W. Jackson, as mayor of Baltimore, Maryland. It is my prophecy that Mayor Howard W. Jackson is on the right road to the highest honor in the choice of the people of Maryland as far as the colored people are con- LODGE AND FRANK By A. George E.

Shwleton However, the Order recognizing the THE PITTSBURGH COURIER Therefore, with Henry Ford, Hiram Johnson, Al Smith and President Harding to be considered in the 1924 elimination race for the White House stakes, the children of Aunt Hagar expect to have a "scrumptious" time. By EDGAR G. BROWN Staff Correspondent cerned, and when the Democratic party produces more men like Mayors Bever of Chicago, Hylan of New York and Jackson of Baltimore, there will be no more migrations; no Republican double-crossing and the Constitution will be upheld in all parts of this land. Slowly the mills grind, but exceedingly fine. True Democracy in Annapolis, Maryland Annapolis, Maryland, one of the oldest cities in America and site of our country's famous naval academy, is a strikingly Democratic community in spite of the attitude of Uncle Sam's naval policy. Annapolis has two colored aldermen with only about 5,000 colored people, while Chicago has only two aldermen with a population of nearly 150,000, "100 per cent. Americans." I suppose difference in the ages of the two cities only proves the advantage the earliest and longest civilization with its lessons of "sadder but wiser" experience. Don't forget Illinois was a free state and Maryland a slave market in our parents or grandparents' lifetime. These two colored men are incidentally part of the solid Democratic council, presided over by the Democratic Mayor, whose election the colored voters made possible by a sixty-two plurality. Hon. R. P. Gurver, colored alderman of Annapolis, is in the private employ of Governor Albert C. Ritchie, chief executive of the State of Maryland. Hon. Chas. H. Bell, our other alderman in Annapolis, is a waiter in the famous "Black Cat." Cafe," when he is not in the council meeting directing municipal affairs. The mills of the gods grind slow, but exceedingly fine, I repeat. The United States is destined to be a land for the free and a home for the brave, regardless of race, creed or color. "That Good Old Kappa Spirit" Everywhere in this broad land, someone has said you can find the Kappa spirit; but we doubt if some of our good western brothers would concede that out East right in Baltimore, it is just as pure and unadulterated as it. Kappa Kasile on Calumet. Believe me, when I tell you that the boys in Baltimore really have everything, and that dinner at Jenkins, nationally famous catering establishment, looked like the kind we had at Brother Gillespie's expense at the Ideal Tea Rooms during the grand chapter convention last Christmas. I tell you I was happy to be one of the bunch. Baltimore Chapter is going to have its own home in order to keep up with the brothers in Washington. This information leaked out of the after-dinner speeches. For All of Us A Good Motto Sid (John M. Siddall), the "brains" of the American Magazine, is dead.

In its own interest, it could not consistently or wisely do other things. The work of the office has grown from year to year, with the membership increasing by seps and bounds, and the number of members approximately 100,000 members must be looked after. The work of this office are far too exacting and laborious for the salary attached to the position, and in the case of a vacancy, the devotion to the Order's affairs, and untiring efforts are proof that it is his job to for the Order's service that is so long, rather than any compensation.

FIVE SIX Win-Harris' Triple In Sixth Paves Way For Final Victory Cannady Goes in as Relief Twirler and Holds Elks. Roberts, Newcomer, Stars in Field and at Bat. Win Harris, injected into the lineup in the sixth inning of the game between the Grays and the Beaver Falls Elks at Forbes field last Saturday afternoon, hit a screeching triple to the fence in left center with two of his mates on the base paths, and started a rally which netted the Grays four runs, and ultimately the game. The trusty bludgeon of Harris had accomplished this feat on numerous occasions before. but the "thrill that comes once in a lifetime" was given most of the 5,000 fans assembled at the park made histi- cric by the mighty sluggers of yester year. And that proved the turning point of the game. More than once, Mc Cullough, Beaver Falls ace, had been in holes, but the "thrill that comes once in a lifetime" was given most of the 5,000 fans assembled at the park made history by the mighty sluggers of yester year. And that proved the turning point of the game. More than once, Mc Cullough, Beaver Falls ace, had been in holes, but he had managed to come through with colors still flying in the breeze. But Harris' clout, and the extra base hitting craze which struck the Bays' "murderer's row" spelled showers for McCullough. Before that hectic inning had closed, four runs had been chased across the plate on three triples, a single and an error. The game, one which excels many a big league contest on the same field, furnishing heart-thrills and sensations aptity. Roberts and Moody sextiltified with brilliant work for the Grays in the outfield. Kirk hit a home run to the flagpole in deep center for the Elks, with Kelly on base, while Cannady, who was sent to the mound in the fourth junging, had the champions at his mercy throughout the remainder of the game. But four hits were registered off his batting delivery, and none of these were productive of runs. Grays Get Flying Start. The Grays got away to a flying start, scoring three runs in the first inning. After Roberts had struck out, Washington singled to center and advanced to second when M. Harris was issued a free pin. Dews single to right scored Wash- Bignon and placed Harris on third. Cannady popped out to short. Then Moody hit a boulder between first and second. Crouch flicked the ball and threw to second to force Owen. Beacon left the ball before it caught the ball, then threw wild and before the ball was retrieved. ```markdown ``` both Harris and Owens had scored Williams flow out to right field. Beaver Hills came back, scoring two runs in the second on a single triple an error by Owens, and two more in the fourth on a triple by Kelly and a home run by Kirk. That triple the scoring so far as the visibles was concerned, it also ended in "Lotty" Williams reign on the income. Then came the eventual sixth inning, in which the Grays forged into the best team to attain the headline. The all score of the game was played in the eleventh inning, when Winkler carried to a near 100 center and scored a double in the ninth inning. The score 666 Concipation, Biliousness.

Baseball Fans Enthused Over Big League Race Detroit's Sensational Spurt Surprises — Mona rehs and A. B. C.'s Still in Running. CHICAGO, IL, July 26—The race in the Negro National Baseball League has proven anything but the runaway many rabid fans predicted at the start of the season. New surprises have been springing up almost daily, and not the least of these has been wonderful spurt of Bruce Petway's Detroit Stars, who in one short month, have risen from fourth place to first and are now the sensation of the league. Guided and piloted by the cazy catcher-manager, the club, with a veteran pitching staff, augmented by some youngsters, who are really The Class, the Wolvesines are going at a puece right now which will do more for the good of baseball, if kept up, than any other single thing to have ever happened. Detroit is baseball crazy, and on every corner nothing but wonderful showing of the Stars is being discussed. Manager Petway has slowly but surely built himself an organization that is a credit, not only to Detroit and the owner of the club, but to the entire baseball world. All the mage is better now than at any time since the advent of the older league. But 88 points separate the Stars and the A. B. C. now resting in fourth place, just two games behind the Kansas City Monarch. Then come Chicago, an out and one half chance ahead of the Missouri tars.

Two New Players Secured by Grays; Both From East Manager Posey, pilot of the Homestead Grays, recognized semi-pro champions of the world, left here last Wednesday night, with "Serrapy" Brown, his crack short-step, for a quick forage of eastern strongholds and returned in time for Saturday's game. Posey did not return alone however and the more, than 5,000 fans which turned out to witness the Grays and Beaver Falls in action at Fortune Field Saturday, saw a new man, who before the afternoon was over, had endured himself to a majority of the fans. Short, with legs bowed, and processing all the earmarks of a speed demon, the new centerfielder showed marvelous ability in covering the center field posture. In addition to this, he connected for four safe swats, including a triple, a double and preformed Nick Altrock on the coaching line. "Raggs" Roberts is the name of this phenom, and what Brown is to the infield, just that is Roberts to the outfield. This ballists from Baltimore, Md., and is record while playing with the Baltimore Black Sox, members of the Eastern Association, warrant its being called one of the headiest and most sensational outfitters in the East. Roberts, according to information glimpsed from various points, was the central dog in the great Baltimore owl of his time. He is a graduate of Temple University, so much coming out along with "Nip," Witches and "Ping" Gadhon, two of the greatest pitches in the East. Obtain New Catchers In addition to Roberts Manager Bobby, you are also the acting leader of the former cheerleader to clean up your top of the black Sox. Roberts is a changer of a team which will be well with the Gray's play. Roberts will manage with the Gray's team, with the Gray's team allowed to relieve the team will be able to relieve the team and Youngs the Gray's team. National N. League THE PITTSBURGH COURIER W. L.

Cubans Take Two Out Of Three From Darby Clan Oscar and Fabre, Cuban Pitching Aces, Turn in Victories—Chacon and Feran Star—Lloyd Goes Into Game as Pinch Hitter. By W. Rollo Wilson Mackey's double and Chacon's er- PHILADELPHIA, July 26. — A neat but not gaudy pitcher is Enrico Aguilardo Fabre, Manager Pompei's other right-handed ace. Saturday he followed in the footsteps of Senor Oscar and beat Hilldale on the home loam. This was only the second time a Saturday crowd had seen that trick done this year. Incidentally, it was two out of three for the Cubans on the week's series. Fully four-fifths of the 5,000 guests (paid as they entered) were rooting for the Islanders to come through with the game and the little men did that thing. In vain did Manager Lloyd throw Mackey and Carr and even himself into the fray. Fabre was "on"; it was his day of destiny. When hits meant runs Hilldale hats became as soda straws in the crubby fists of babies. Mesa opened the third with a double to left and Baro's infield single moved him up to third. Oms grounded to Allen and was out, unassisted. Chacon's sacrifice fly and Thomas' poor throw to the plate allowed Mesa to score. Feran's double sent Baro over. The "umps" called a suspicious third strike on Dihigo and Sujunq up for jumbo prior to two. With two down in the seventh, Chacon doubled into the crowd and when Feran's Texas leaguer fell safe the veteran shortstop had carried the news to Garcia. Warfield strolled to start the sixth and Top's line drive over second put him on third. Thomas hit into a double play, Frank counting, George Washington Johnson singled, but Judy was out, Chacon to Dihigo, a nifty bit of fielding on each end. In the eighth Hilldale made a bid for a run, but Fabre and company refused to accept it. Top's second hit of the day was a rousing double to deep center. Thomas flied out to Mesa and George Johnson died, Chacon to Dihigo. The "Old One," feeling that it was useless to send a child in there, rubbed his game leg, snatched Judy Johnson's bat, and hobbled to the plate. He hit the first pitch, but lofted it to short center, a puerile effort. Feren caught it on his belt buckle. Monarchs and Am Giants In Series KANSAS CITY, Mo., July 26. All famlion in this city is worked up over the coming five-game series between the American Giants, of Chicago, and the Kansas City Monarchs, which start Saturday afternoon in the new Mullenbach park, the $350,000 home of the local American Association club. The greatest crowd that ever witnessed a baseball game in this city is expected Sunday. The new park seats 26,000 people and is the finest outside of the big league parks in this country. Working hard had lived in the crowded mines, when he lost Kelgis in the city on the Cumberland coast over an hour in Portland. Had these two be lost, caught the first two Mackey's double and Chacon's error in the ninth totaled one run, which was one short of enough to tie the score. Tyan pitched a steady game and deserved a better fate. Santop's hitting and George Johnson's fielding were the other bright spots for Darpy. Baro, Chacon and Feran sparkled afield and at bat. The heat waves must have affected both umpires, but oddly enough the attacks harmed only the Cubans. The score: | HILDALE | R. H. O. A.

Cuban Stars Break Even With A.B.C's Manager Dismukes Goes on Mound and Wins Two Games During Week. Visitors Ahead in Series. WASHINGTON PARK, Indianapolis, Ind., July 22. The Cuban Stars and Indianapolis broke even in a double header here today, the Cubans winning the first game by a 5 to 3 score and Indianapolis winning the second, an eight-inning affair (being called on accounts of no'clock closing law) by the same, score. Corbett held the Cubans safe in the first game until the sixth inning, when they scored two runs on two errors a base on balls and two hits. The Cubans scored the winning runs in the eighth on three singles, a double, a base on balls and a squeeze play. The A's scored their first two runs in the first inning on a base on balls, two singles and a double and their third and last run in the fifth on two singles, two sacrifices. The A's filled the bases in the sixth with none out, but failed to score. Dismukes and Padrone renewed their long standing battle of pitching supremacy in the second game and the Cubans could dent home plate in only one inning, the seventh, when they tied the score by scoring three times, before Charleston came in from center field to pitch to Dreke with two outs and a runner on second base. With two outs and a runner on first base in the fourth, Shively made a sensational running catch of Guerral's drive up against the left field fence, cutting off a sure run. The scores: CUBANS. ABL.

The Keystone A. C., one of the fastest little clubs in the city, are going at a mighty fast clip, having played 39 games thus far this season. Of this number, the club has won 24 games and lost 15, for an average of .615. The club has a large negotiation of followers, it is the claim of Manager Tideline that they have the largest bunch of admirers of the club in the city.

Pacific Coast Favorites By Henry Jones. Keystone A. C., Fast Junior Club, Going At Remarkable Clip This week, the Keystones face one of the hardest list of games they have yet struck. On Monday they played the Braddock Black Sox; Tuesday, the J. C. Clarkes will be met at Central Park; Wednesday, Duquesne — Thursday at Central Park; Friday the Peerless club at Olympia Park, Mt. Washington. Saturday, two games at Johnstown. The Keystone, pitching staff, with such stars as Joe Moir, Al "Dizzy" Carter, "Bullet" Earl Scott and "Lefty" Alien, star southpaw, who is going at top speed and should win the majority of their games. Chambers, Palmer and Dixon take care of the catching and hold up the pitchers. The infield, composed of "Lefty" Johnson at first, Zeak Thompson, second, "Buck" Williams on short and Trice on third forms one of the best inner defenses ever built up. All of the lads can field and throw and their work leaves little or nothing to be desired.

(Special to the Pittsburgh Courier) By Geo. M. Bell. NEW YORK, July 26—By far, the most interesting feature of the Ideal Tennis Tournament, just ended, was the sensational defeat of Mrs. Lottie Wade, New York's State Champion, by Miss Alma Crawford. The Tournament took place during the week of July 15th to 21st on the courts of the Ideal Tennis Club in West 138th Street, New York City. On Monday, rain prevented the using of three of the courts, only a few matches were played, but from Tuesday morning, things went on nicely until the playing of the finals on Saturday, when darkness prevailed, and playing of the last set in the men's doubles. The copies were numerous, the events contested being Men's Singles, Ladies' Singles, Men's Doubles and Mixed Doubles, L. E. Spooner acted as Referee. Everything considered the tournament was very successful. The big surprise of the tournament came on Friday afternoon when Mrs. Lotte Wade met her Waterloo at the hands of Miss Crawford. Reading in last week's edition of The Courier of Miss Crawford's wonderful improvement, a large crowd was on hand to witness this match, but few, if any, expected Miss Crawford to come out, winner. After a battle in which both ladies stood on the back line and drove for all they were worth, Miss Crawford took the first set 6-4, while this match was going on. On No. 2 court, Salghe was having a bitter fight with Frank Jones on No. 1, who attention was somewhat divided. With the Jones Sutton battles in the Wade Crawford match to court one, and for the next half hour or more, the gallery was kept husty applauding a fine exhibition of strokes of first one and then the other of these rivals. Miss Crawford particularly demonstrated her ability to rally after a slump, and on one occasion firing the second set when it appeared as though Mrs. Wade would win the set, Miss Crawford diseased, and finally won again, that was 40 to lose against her. She took the set at 7-5, thus accomplishing what she set out to do just a few years ago. Her victory is the result of honest effort, hard work, and a well deserved victory it was. With the exception of Mrs. Deenal, the other matches resulted in anticipated. Salghe's hardest match before stated, was against Frank Jones. Salich is in good form right now, and Jones has improved his game considerably since his last appearance; with the Philadelphia and New York State. Tournaments only a few weeks off, both these youngsters will have an opportunity to put on the finishing touch, preparatory to their invasion of the Windy City. George Godfrey to Meet Tate in Chicago CHICAGO. Ill., July 26—George Godfrey, accredited with having knocked out Jack Dempsey while training the latter for his recent fight with Tom Gibbons, arrived here last Thursday night and has gone into training at the Jones' A. C. for his scheduled bout with big Bill Tate at the Hawthorne race track on August 10. The bout is to hold under the auspices of the Sol- Sai-Mar post No. 225. American Legion with headquarters at 29 N. Dearborn St.. are speedsters both in their position and on the paths. The club is still booking games.

THE PITTSBURGH COURIER RIGHT OFF THE BAT Tennis Stars In East Out To Beat the West Keen Rivalry Exists in Various Sections of Country as Elimination Matches Get Under Way By Edgar G. Brown (National, Illinois, New York, Ohio and Indiana Men's Singles BALTIMORE, Md., July 26—Everyone out this way has been busy for the last two weeks consulting road maps and all their friends who have ever been West, preparatory to a special meeting called for Sunday by Dr. H. S. McCard, president American Tennis Association. Dr. Wm. H. Wright, official referee and the squareest and best umbrella in the whole United States; Dr. Rhetta, Dr. McKae, Rev. Dr. Walker, of Baltimore; Prof. John Wilkerson of Washington; Miss Nellie Nicholas, of Baltimore; Mrs. Austin, formerly of New York, but now a member of the Naval Club, of Annapolis, Maryland; "Annapolis" Smith, president of that organization and the prince of hosts, will all be on hand to complete the tournament, nationalists in Chicago by August 28th. The first big tournament began July 23rd in Baltimore for the Eastern championship in Men's Singles, Men's Doubles, Woman's Singles and Mixed Doubles. This was the first real test of 1923 for a number of the country's first ten—Dr. O. B. Williams, of Chicago, No. 4; E. Saitch, of New York, No. 7, and Sylvester Smith, No. 3, are entered. But interest has been manifested with the likelihood of Tally Holmes, former national champion; Dr. Rhetta, Baltimore champion and rated No. 6, who says he is out to win not only at home, but also at Chicago, Rev. Dr. Walker and myself battling it out in the semi-finals for a chance at the championship on Saturday. The winner of this tournament, I predict, will be next national champion. The only dark horse in the entries is young Ted Thompson, Junior National champion, who nearly won the Washington-Baltimore inter-city matches. If Ted should be right next week, he may come through to the semi-finals or even to the championship. He has strokes if he does not forget to use his head to the best advantage. It will be the old struggle over again of youth against experience. Among the women, Mrs. Austin is my choice for the highest honor. She defeated Miss Nicholas, of Baltimore, in an inter-city match last week. 6-0, hitting the ball in characteristic "Hellen Wills" style, if you please. I advise Mrs. Wade, Mrs. Crawford, Miss Isadore Channels, National Woman's title holder, and her close rival, Miss Dorothy Radcliff to look out for the hard hitting forehand and backhand artist, Mrs. Austin, who says she has practiced all winter. Believe me, she truly shows it. In the men's doubles, Dr. Rhetta and Rev. Walker look like the best, though Talley Holmes and young Thompson are going to be very much there. The mixed doubles, Miss Nicholas and Dr. Rhetta are the most seasoned partners. Coming from behind they defeated Mrs. Austin and "Annapolis" Smith, who had a 5-2 lead. They are my choice to win The writer was an interested spectator at the recent series between the A.B. B.C. of Indianapolis. He also attended games last Thursday and Friday between clubs of the Eastern Association. The club spirit of the Eastern clubs was much more in evidence than that of the Western club. Hildale has the greatest array of sluggers ever assembled on one ball club, not exceeding Kansas City and "Chicago" old club of Peto Hill's time. . . . Any club which has Lloyd, Santep, Mackey and Carr, the four largest men in baseball, all left-hand hitters, is the best team to be leading off, and "Nip" Winters, the big southpaw pitcher, has a group of hitters who will make life miserable for any left-handed pitcher. Warriors will be the best team to be no skilings with the stick and round out one of the greatest clubs in organized baseball. "Bube" Poster's club has baseball down to its finest point, the nth design of a baseball cap capable of carrying through the Foster system of play to the minute. . . . Gardner, DeMoss, Torrienti, Jim Brown, Lyons, Malcherer and Williams are fast and get down to first base like a dash. . . . It is the writer's opinion that Fosters' club could defend Hildaide in a match against the edge of the batters on the Hildaide club would offset their heavy hitting, while the dashing, short hit, base-stealing play would over enough runs in the majority of games to be more than sufficient to defeat Kidman's men, as Owens, Tom Bentley, and the good pitchers, capable of protecting a lead down several innings. A SPORTSMAN [Name] George R. Hooper Ohio Business Man Comes to Rescue of Tate Star Ball Club By Wilbur M. Cooper CLEVELAND, O. July 26.—The above is an excellent likeness of Mr. Geo. R. Hooper, of Cleveland and California, who recently saved the present home of the Tate Star Baseball Club by coming to the rescue with over $12,000. Mr. Hooper is one of the leading citizens of Cleveland, quiet and unassuming and one of the really remarkable men of the race, due to the fact that at the age of 44 years he is ready to retire from active business. Until 1922 he had never been inside a baseball field, so busy had he been with his business. Mr. Hooper's investment in the Tate Tate Baseball Club came from a purely unselfish motion—from a desire to be of service to an enterprise dedicated to the good of the members of his race. Geo. J. Tate and his associates have been struggling since 1922 against almost unsurmountable odds to put the organization on a substantial basis. There were certain other men and their associates who seemed to be just as bent on a policy of destruction. Mr. Hooper was consulted with early in the spring, and after the situation was explained to him thoroughly, he wrote that he need not worry any more; he would take care of it, and, running true to form, he did as he said. The buying out-right of the park means that all legal obligations to stockholders and general creditors of the old company has been destroyed. Cuban Giants to Play At Church Picnic The Cuban X Giants have a busy six days before them, starting with Friday evening at Central Park, and perhaps one of the most important games of the series will be played Monday afternoon at Olympia Park when the Port be the club will meet the animal fond of the Ehnezer Baptist church. Fully 3,000 fans are expected to attend the game. Hilldale is the biggest drawing cards in semi-pro baseball in the league. Baltimore Black Sox have a good hitting club, and appear to be strong on the defense, bollded Richardson's pitching. Salmon, the ex-Kyoto-stone submarine artist, is going great guns for the Dirmingham Black Barons. "Nig" Winters of Hilldale and "Nig" Hendenon of the Binghamton are the leading pitchers of the East Dave Brown has regained his stride, but lost a couple of like games during the past week. Harrisburg traded Johnson, a pitcher, to Washington Bobcats in exchange for Eldgerty, an infielder. Wilson, the Baltimore Black Sox first baseman, is considered the hardest hitter in the East. Lincoln's Giants, New York's best team, is really finding the road rough and rocky in the Eastern circuit. Myrl Brown, the Pittsburgh National League hurler, who was loaned to the Homestead-Grays to play against the Homestead-Grays, was buried under an avalanche of hits in Wheeling in the seventh inning. Win Harris batted in a pinch at Kopiec on the second play of the score standing 1-6. The lanky Gray slugger doubled to left field. This was the blow which even the 1980s' Forbes Feld, with Beaver Falls lending 4-3 in the sixth inning and one down, Win was inserted into the hole and started the Grays' great offensive. Sunday at Wheeling, with the score 5-2 in the fifth innth. Win hit a home run and responded with a line single to center, scoring Cannady from second, and stirring. He resulted in a win. Win has failed to hit in but one game this season. Men! Come To Me!

Mr. West is contemplating taking boys who are desirous of spending a delightful vacation with him during the last two weeks in August, and a good time is assured all who are lucky enough to accompany him.

And McGarvey's opinion coincides with that of the most of the big eastern magnates. McGarvey says that Firpo would be nice picking for the champion. Jack Dempsey. He says Dempsey should knock Firpo in the first round, and if Dempsey is allowed to go two rounds, Dempsey is just a good fighter with no claim to greatness.

The Resolution Adopted The attitude of the assembled col- red leaders is set forth in the, fol- lowing resolutions adopted by the convention, which was made up of representatives from New York, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Illinois, Indiana, Missouri, Ohio, Delaware, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Massa- chusetts, Connecticut and West Virgina: "We realize that the Negro in America has reached a crisis in his political life, a crisis which must be met by definite and constructive action. As an American citizen he finds himself in a large section of the country disfranchised, jim-everson, subjected to peonage, mobbed and lynched, and in other sections, under limitations to which other groups are not subjected. "We believe that colored citizens in the States where they vote and where their votes are counted should ease to the fullest extent all the political power they can command, to polish such conditions and for the greatest benefit to the entire race. "To this end we urge, that in every state colored citizens, where they have the privilege of voting, organize themselves into political groups, who in casting their votes will hold the interest of the race paramount to any party organization. "To make these steps effective, we urge upon colored voters that the next 15 months be devoted to forming and perfecting these political groups, through which the masses of Negro voters should be educated and trained in the qualifications for voting, and aroused to take the concerted action necessary to bring about the maximum political pressure." Minority Report Killed The minority report which delayed the adoption for over half an hour of the above resolution was bitterly assailed by several speakers, who branded such statements as "wisdom dictates that we stick to the Republican party" as silly "tommyrot" and pitilable ignorance. Even Rev. W. A. Eyrid, of New Jersey, who shouted, "I am an unadulterated simeon pure Republican," was forced to yield the floor amid the confusion caused by hisses and general commotion as the chairman unsuccessfully rapped for order. When the doctor-spoke again it was to cry out emphatically, "I have no confidence in Harding; he has been rotten; the whole administration has failed to do what it promised to do." The new political independence of SHALL WE STAND STILL? the colored vote was directed by James Weldon Johnson, of New York, and secretary of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and for the first time in history the colored voters represented failed to renew their allegiance to the Republican party. Old-Timers Not Present This new independence of thought in the exercise by the colored voters in the use of their franchise and the rather unprecedented success of upstanding and fair-minded Democrats in Delaware, Illinois, Indiana, Maryland, New Jersey, Ohio and New York, accounts also for the absence at this national political conference of such party wheel horses ballyhoo gentlemen and jobholders as our old friends, Perry, Howard, Mississippi, Attorney General's office; Colonel Roscoe Conkling Simons, nephew of the late Booker T. Washington, and erstwhile Republican news and propaganda artist; "Link" (Henry Lincoln) Johnson, disfranchised and ostracized national committeeman from Georgia; Bill McDonald, of Texas, who a fair-faced woman, Mrs. Pinkney, of the Lone Star State, answered for at the convention's roll-call; Phil Brown, Labor Department; Dr. Crossland, of the Interior Department, who was scheduled for the post at Base Hospital 91, Tuskegee. Ala., until President Harding went to Alaska, leaving the Ku Klux Klan in control and, strangely, they object to colored physicians and nurses caring for wounded colored ex-service men. He who invented that phrase, "The changing world," was a true prophet. only by the most diffions. Before many ho hear feeble calls for he in the box. When a ma his clothes usually dri piration and his face, red shows the agonies dergone. Oddly enough, such good Quaker Republicans as Representative Asbury and his Philadelphia associates were out in the open declaring for a new deal and agreeing the only way to make a successful campaign was to support the best man and the soundest measures, regardless of policy. Representative Asbury went so far as to intimate that the colored voters in Philadelphia never received any consideration until they forced the hand of the inside ring of Republican bosses. Other speakers took an outright stand to support Democratic candidates in the future in the mayoralty races, just as the colored people did in Chicago, Baltimore and New York city recently. The Old Guard holdovers got a resolution through for the appointment of a committee to wait on the President and acquaint him with the universal dissatisfaction with his Administration, and to urge further consideration of the Dyer bill and the manning of Base Hospital 91 at Tuskegee, by colored physicians, dentists and nurses. Plans were taken up in executive session to actively start the immediate promotion of non-partisan clubs in every northern State, where every committeeman will appoint a woman member to work on absolute equality with him in perfecting the organization by 1924. In the southern States an effort will be made to force the national Republican committee to give equal representation to the colored delegates. NEW TORTURE REPLACES LASH IN CONVICT CAMPS (Continued From Page 1.) ture to pass an anti-whipping law, is that their orders will not be obeyed unless such action is taken. The "sweat, box" is the new method of torture for white prisoners do- ing road work and colored prisoners who are said to have committed minor offenses. Most of the colored convicts, however, are given an even more cruel type of punishment. Close-Up of "Sweat-Box." A close up of the "sweat box" demonstrated that it is quite effective. Picture a plain wooden box, made out of rough pine lumber. It is just high enough for a medium-sized man, and not wide enough to permit one to sit down or even bend over. A fraction of an inch separates one's head from the roof, perhaps there is not even this much space. The roof itself is the crowning touch. It is made of galvanized iron.

(Crusader Service) MONTGOMERY, Ala., July 26.—The Lower House of the Alabama Legislature today voted for the continued reign of barbafism in this state by the overwhelming defeat administered the efforts of a few Alabamans, prodded and aided by outside humanitarians, to have a bill passed calling for the abolition of the convict leasing system in Alabama. The House of Representatives side-tracked the issue by voting 2 to 1 resolution not to consider further convict lease legislation at this session. This means the question of abolition of leasing will not come up before March 31, 1924, unless the action is overturned. L. C. C.

CHAMBER'S REVIEW CHAMBER'S REVIEW FROLIC THEATER Birmingham, Ala., July 26—Four acts of vaudeville featuring Bessie Smith and partner, the record singer. This bill due to the appearance of the featured lady and Charles Anderson, a home product, has broken all previous records. Streets blocked, hundreds and hundreds unable to gain entrance to this performance. The opening act was Stimmers and Stimmers, a man and woman with a piano act. This act has been seen here before, and came back with practically the same act, although this clever pair held this spot and pulled some very good stuff. The Blues rendition was good, but should have been held for the closing number. This ace averaged about 90 per cent. on a bill of this kind. "Buzzing" Harris and Harris, a man and woman, opened on half stage with "Will Be Doggone Happy When the Preacher Makes You Mind," and after a clean line of talk and good songs, the act closed with a novelty dance to the "Belly-Roll Blues." This act averages about eighty-five to this bill. Charles Anderson with heavy ovation opened half stage and came near panicking his spot, as a yodler he is great and the folks of his own appreciation of them. "Mamma Every Night" was his closing performance. He took three encores, refusing the fourth. Star honors are split between this act and Bessie, although he is responsible for the big crowd present. A hundred per cent, act is all that could be said of this neatly attired gentleman. Bessie Smith with Irvin Johns at the piano before their own special drop opened full stage with "Nobody's Bizness If I do," with the "Gulf Coast Blues" following, which received heavy applause, leaving the house in a rait. During this act Irvin Johns, the pianist, offered an instrumental rendition that drew hands.

Miss Sadie Peterson, a colored teacher who has had some experience with the drama, is in immediate charge of the promotion. News of the project was made public during a reception held at the library on July 17 in honor of the more than seven hundred colored teachers who are enrolled in the summer courses at Columbia University.

The "How Come" show upon which Ben Harris spent $56,000 before and during the brief season of it at the Apollo theater in downtown New York, and which played a supplementary season of five weeks at the Lafayette theater in uptown New York, went to the Shubert theater in Newark, N. J. for the week of June 9, and was held over for another week on the merit of the show and the drawing power it exhibited. The Newark ledger of June 10: "The artistic sets that compared favorably with any Broadway revue, the pop of the chorus, who by the way, were the best colored dancers any theatrical organization has carried; good music, a large orchestra that raced through jazz scales and to the accompaniment of the nimbelfooted shuffling of the cast, all make 'How Come' better than 'Liza' and 'Shuffle Along.'

Make Yourself More Attractive USE QUINADE No other single factor contributes so much to personal charm and attractiveness as beautiful hair. Seeby's Quinade will help to beautify and improve the hair. It will soften harsh, kinky hair, making it easier to put up in any style its length will permit. Quinade is a medicated pomade, scientifically compounded by an experienced pharmacist. It contains ingredients which stimulate the scalp and roots of the hair, and which are calculated to encourage its growth.

Indeed, the real purpose of the Ws as proposed is to prevent the Negro from leaving the 3uth at all. The laws would punish labor agencies seeking to ike Negroes zway from their southern firesides. ._,These proposed laws reveal how well the whites of the gath Jove the Negro as 2 hewer of wood and a drawer of water. he South is very much interested in the Negro as a laborer; ab es a citizen, 2 human being with rights, the Negro, in the pinion of the South, is not worthy of attention. . =: It is just this truth that the Negro has-learned in recent iguths; and it is his recent intélligence on the subject that is apelling the Negro to leave all atid-seek freedom. The Negro }learning, by some means not purposely provided, how to read, nd tomake use of what he reads. The Negro has learned since Se war that the only use the white man has for the black itierican is purely domestic, and that without adequate com- feasation. The Negro who once gave his services all week for he privilege of a horse and buggy on Sunday has learned that abor is more valuable in other parts of the country. Oppres- Yon, low wage, prejudice, Iynchings and the K. K.-h—all ive contributed to make the South a dangerous.place for the Jack man. He is decided upon one thing—desertion. Having iatisfied himself of the correctness of his decision, he is leav- Ag with abandon—locking to God and the uncertain future for igily bread. © To pass laws in any state to stop an exodus of any people ig determined as are the Negroes of the South to better their vondition at any cost, is but idle play. Laws max: prevent labor’ agencies from entering the southern states, but they will never aFevent Negroes from leaving the South. ‘There will be found Snother way to escape the heavy hand of the white masters who are too lazy to work themselves, and yet too mean to of- fer decent living conditions for the people who have always done the work. The Negro is on his way to fredeom, and laws vill never stop him now. a Noi the Hospital—Sut Jur Boys = it is the opinion of ‘The Vittshurgh Courier that quite #ough bas been said anent the Tuskegee Mess, in so iar as it relates to the haspifal and the personnel. It is a settled fact that our soldier boys are to be the inmates, regardless of the personnel selected to treat them. It is their interest which ghould claim us now, and not so much what President Harding maey or may not.do when he returns. His record for doing things where we are concerned is so well known among us that fis return is not awaited with any degree of assurance that Sen- stor Powell and the Kluxers of Alabama will be dethroned in our favor. : We could better employ our time by directing attention to the condition of our boys. While we are talking about the Klan, President Harding, and the ashen-faced fear of Major Moton, Gur sick hoy's will have died. They are not interested in the hos- Rital at Tuskegee half as much as they are in their own sweet lives. They are awaiting treatment, not mistreatment. ©: We offer the suggestion that President Harding be notified that as far as thé Negroes of this country are concerned, we do fiot eare to have our wounded boys placed in the hospital at Luskegee, regardless of the final personnel chosen. If Negroes bré finally placed in charge, our hoys may be burned to a crisp some night by the Kluxers, who have informed the Government, by. silent parade, that Negroes arenot to operate the hospital. If-whites take charge of the hospital. our boys may die of hys- teria, fits, spasms and neglect. They will simply worry them- Selves to their untimely end by meditating upon the most prob- able method the whites might employ to dispose of the “incura- bles.” The place can never serve our boys now. It has been 'Ia- peled “Dangerous” and our hoys will never improve under such atmosphere. | :£7 The proper thing for the Negroes of this country to do is simply to tell the Government that the Negroes starid ready to provide for the wounded and maimed Negroes, whose bodies were mutilated in the cause of Democracy, but whose skins fire too black to deserve governmental: treatment and protec- tion. We will take charge of them. If they die in our arms, their death will be sweet because it will be a natural death, If ¥he cracker kill them, or if the Kluxers set fire to the hospital and burn them, their lives will be snuffed out while the govern- ment debates whether it is good polities to defy Senator Powell and the Ku Klux of Alahama. If this government can send our boys to war and have hem shot to pieces for Democracy. and can not provide them a Hospital and treatment equal to that given other boys, then we_| ought to take them ourselves, at onr own expense, and at least afford them a soft spot upon which to die. Let us look well to ‘the needs of the Boys. and Iet the Government and Major Mo- Ron play their little gzime of politics. 4 a And Now the Philippines . Weorand with littl enurnriece that a whale amMaic! Piiiinnine | st, We read, with little surprise, that a whole official Philippine cabinet had resigned as an expression of resentment to certain Hrpositions which are said to be a part of the Wood regime. The natives are reported to be planning some public demonstra- tion as the best method of expressing the popular feeling. The Bituation is serious, and reports indicate that freedom for the Tslanders is postponed several decades by the incident. “2s Weare not certain that this is not the usual program when- ever Uncle Sam takes over an Island of people. It seems impos- Sible for this government to govern any people or to assist in their government without openly oppressing the populace. The Philippines are under United States control. Leonard Wood is Governor General. His resignation has been reported several times. Just what connection his renorted resignation has di- xeetiy with the recent ontbreals may he disclosed later. The fact remains that the Wood goverment has brought about dissat- isfaction . © World protlems are rapidly taking the definite form of race and color problems. It seems a fixed policy’ of the-civilized na- tions that there cn tc no warm co-operation between neaples.of Bifferont calor. The color difference seems entirely too distinc: i@barvier for our present day civilization. -— THE PITTSBURGH COURIER As soon as our country took over the Danish West Indies, there was a difference in the attitude of our government to- werd the Islanders. As soon as we went-into Haiti a great how! went up about the treatment this government imposed upon the Haitians. For a while, we heard much talk about the In- dependence of the Philippines, but the latest developments in- dicate that freedom is still a thing devoutly to be wished. ‘The world will not look with patience much longer upon the nation that seeks to control by undue exactions visited upon a weaker people. Wealth will be the sign of hate, and help of- fered will be the signal for enmity and estrangement instead of co-operation, if we do not find a more Christian way of goy- erning people we seek to help, Tt may be charged that the Islanders are at fault, but it does seem strange, at least, that we are alway’s right, and the Islanders are always wrong. The Daily Press ‘and America _____ Pittsburgh arose on last Luesday morning to find that sey- eral thousand Klansmen, paraded the streets of Wilkinsburg, a borough adjacent to the city line, and held a formal initiation upon an elevation where the fiery cross could be seen for many squares, The notoriety enjoyed by the Klan was increased by our daily press; and all Western Pennsylvania was told of the workings of the Klan as though it were something new in America. Great head lines were employed by The Post, while other journals gave liberal space to the incident, ‘A young bride is murdered near Pittsburgh, and our daily press proceeded to flout the case into the faces of the children, the mothers and the community. Great headlines were employ- ed fo tell the story of murder. 2 Mrs. Castle of Jazz fame, fresh from Paris with a divorce, received headline attention in almost all of the daily journals. Crime, near crime, scandal and near scandal—all find a promi- nent place on the front pages of the American dailies. Gradually, and not too gradually, but with some speed, sentiment of one nature or another finds convenient passage from coast to coast through the medium of the American daily. We.are convinced that the average daily is dedicated to commercialism and money-getting, regardless of the cost to America or to civilization. The American daily sells all kinds of trash, crime, gossip, scandal and social rot at two cents per copy. The succes sof the Managing Editor depends upon the daily sales, and the cash balance. American institutions are go- ing to hell in broad daylight; womanhood is riding to a fall through the indecent exposures offered the people under the guise of “pictorials.” Note the Monday morning Post, if you please. The editor says he is proud his journal attracts criticism and notice. He says that s what hess paid to do, and he is do- ing it for so much per month. If he resigns another will take his job at so much per month. The editor is right, but his coun- try is going to hell while he is commercially right for the hene- fit of the cash balance at the end of the week. - American dailies are no longer reliable sources of infor- mation. The truth is no longer sought with the idea of truth values. Anything that sells the journal is “news,” and the more valuable it is, the better the “scoop” on the competitors. And there seems to be no limit. The policy as found on the editorial page is more than drowned in the mire on the first page. The policy is something to be sought by the reader, while the true aim and endeavor of the management—money—is written all over the front page. If America is to fall through her public press; if money is to be the criterion by which journalistic success is to be meas- ured; if womanhood, morals, justice, truth and the vitals of so- ciety ere to he bartered and sold to make the daily press success- ful, if these ends are to be accomplished as a part of the jour- nalistic program of the enemies of our country, the end is. in plain view, and the fall is but a question of a few years. News reached us from Atlantic City that a few “radicals” held a kind of preliminary organization meeting at the sea shore the other day. Those in actual attendance were not named, but those who were not present were named at length. We take it that the press agent was instructed to inform the public of the absentees as an indirect way of eliminating the “big league leaders” in the conservative ranks. James W. Johnson, of N. A. A. C. P. fame, led the attack, it our information is reliable. Asbury of Philadelphia added his displeasure to the failing administration of Harding, while the New Jersey Senator, Mr. Edge, got a close-up of himself fieeing the Senate when the Dyer- Bill needed his vote. If nothing else was done, the meeting deserves mention. At will not answer the demands of red-blooded men, Amer- ieans by every test, to say that Mr. Harding needs more time to give the lie to the prevailing sentiment against him and his party leaders. Mr. Edge probably has a better idea of dissatis- fied citizenry now than he has ever had. The appointthent of Randolph to U. S. Assistant District Attorney in Jersey tells us that there is a way of commanding: at least a half loaf. And while the better thinking Negroes prefer a better géneral POSI- TION for the race than a few Federal appointments, yet these appointments indicate that there is virtue in kicking, when con- ditions justify it. Some one has been kicking in.Jersey. If the few “radicals” who met in Atlantic City mean busi- ness, they have an excellent opportunity to improve the national conscience between now and 1924. Half men, and servility will pass into the forgotten, if the new faith we profess finds enough cultivation among real men and women, | Ben Davis invites Dr. Moton back. Davis says, “Come back, Major!” But the Major says: “Ben, your invitation sounds 200d, but when did Atlanta become spokesman for Tuskegée and Alabama?

The Radicals Meet SOUIBBS WHAT THEY SAID LAST WEEK ‘The Detroit “Time Piece” takes a wallop at tho belly for the benefit of the brain. And what the editor has to say on the question of feeding both the body and brain makes good reading. It follows: ‘We human beings are so constituted that we yield in some degree, whether we Want to or not, to every influence that touches onr lives. Our opinions, our belief and our physical selves are what they are because of what we hear and feel and taste and smell and see. We cannot tell with certainty to, what extent any one of these senses influences our lives. Every one that we have, in proportion _ tots development, plays its part in the sum total of what we are, ‘Those of us who through habit have stimulated most the sense of taste are influenced most by good things to eat—we citer to our bellies; those of us who have given greater stimulation to some other sense yield most easily to its influence. Invariably we human beings are inclined to give over to those senses that yield mere pleasure sensations almost to the exclusion of senses, the active use and development of which are necessary to the building of rounded out men and women. ‘The senses through which the brain gets, its greatest, food for constructive thought should not be neglected. Their excitation | ‘and development are as necessary as tho excitation and develop- ment of those through which the physical body gets its food. Strong vigorous mental bodies aro as, important to, human ogress as strong, vigorous physical bodies. Starve neither, but For the benefit of the race, if you have to negiect either, take from the belly and give to the brain, | The migration question will not down. It is running the Tuskegee Hospital a close second. Before the laws of the South are made water- tight on migration, the whole Negro world—in the South--may be seat- tered all over everywhere. The St. Louis Clarion thinks economic force is being applied just about right. Wo read: ‘The underlying causes for the movements of people from their homes to another land have been similar throughout history. Guarantees of life, liberty and the peaceful pursuit of happiness may not mean extetly the same thing to the Negro who would leave Tougaloo, Miss. for Toronto, Canada, as it meant ta the Pilgrim fathers, but generally the ‘causes are identical. ‘The South is firmly convinced that its attitude on the raco question is substantially-right. Some of, the best minds in Amer- iea, and some of the strongest characters, firmly believe that it is sacrilege and a flaunting of Providence to speak of a Negro as in all things an American. All the argument imaginable will not change the minds of essentially honest men who honestly believe they are right on the subject. Conditions South are not undergoing any material change excepting through some necessity. Necessity ean only be supplied by armed or economic force. Armed force is unthinkable for sev- eral reasons the chief of which is that there are bonds of idealistic attachment between a large element of the races in the South, regardless of what our own jingolsts may claim. Economic foree will be naturally supplied through the Negroes’ movement and this to the ultimate greatest good of the South, both races and the nation, It we are growing suspicious or wears, The Searchlight offers us a little tonic. God is still alive in Tacoma, Wash. Read this: Colored men, while fighting for equal rights and/justic before law, remember that God is not dead—that He from His high place in the heavens still rales supremely affairs of men! He ruled when Chaldea; Aseyria, Media, Greece, Sparta and Rome were mighty powors. They arg of the dust! He still relens. We reigned through the Dark Ages when superior power and beauty might lit up the forests with the light which flared from burning martyrs! Thoso axes are of the past, He stil lives! He who empers the wind to the shorn lamb, who covers the earth with a carpet of green, bedecks the blue of heaven with countless sparkling stars, meas- urgs the ocean with span and whose eve notes the fall’ of the flying sparrow, will not be unmindful of that man or race, whose refuge is His strength. Let us take fresh courage! We must not apoligize!, We must not retreat! We are’ entitled to be free, The fight for equal right before the law and enual gpen- handed justice must be our chief concern, We must stake all on this fight. It is a battle as it were for life itself. Colored Priests From OUR COLORED MISSIONS, July, 1923— A Catholic Pub- lication = The ordination on June 13th last of Rev. Joseph A. John, colored member of the Lyons African Mis slonary Society, gives endourage ment to all who are concerned about the conversion of the colored peo ple of the United States. He fin- ished his preparation for the priest- hood at St. Anthony's House of Studies, Highwood, New Jersey, an institution founded by Very Rev. Ignatius Lissner, I A. M., to edu- cate white and colored boys for the missions in the South, and in a shor’ time he will begin to exercise his ministry in the State of Georgia. The advent of this colored priest may be viewed as bringing to a eris- ig the question of a native clergy in this country, and, no doubt, contro- versy will. rage for and against it. Opposed will be the timorous, the stand-patters, the prejudiced and the Jgnorant of history or those who de liberately close their eyes to the les- sons it teaches. In favor of it will be the plain doctrine and the pre tice of the Catholic Church and the earnest words of many. Popes _ of Rome. Going back to thevery first Vicar of Christ on earth, St. Peter had to contend with race enmity in himself and in others. When Corne- lius, the Centurion and a_ gentile, came to him seeking baptism, St. Peter, speaking for himself, sgid: “Ygu ‘know how abominable it is for aman that is 2 Jew to keep, com- pany or to come unto one of another Ration; but God hath shewed to me, to call’ no man common or unclean;" and later speaking to the Jewish converts who wanted the gentiles Kept out, he said: “If then God gave them the, same grace, as He gave to us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ; who was 1, that I could with- stand Goi?” ‘There we have the an- swer to ery objection made by the learned or the ignorant, the pious or the wicked, the malicious or the timorous. If God has given to the colored youth the same vocation to the priesthood as He gave to me, “Who am I, that I could withstand God?” And as spoke the first of the Popes so have spoken his suecessors at various times till we come down to our day and listen to the words of Pius Xth and Benedict XVth counselling and commanding mis- sionaries in pagan countries to strive prudently, but with all pos- sible speed to provide a native clergy. A few ypars ago, when Fa- ther Lissner was in Rome the Cardi- nal Prefect of the Propaganda, aft- er consultation with the Holy Fa- ther, charged him to foster among the Negroes of the Sarees States vocations to the Catholic priesthaod. It is woefully Ite to begin that work now; it should have been start- ed 60 years back. At the close of the Civil War an American Negro was studying at the Propaganda in Rome, whose ordination was held up on the word of some ecclesiastics in the, States who asserted it would be very inopportune to bring a colored priest into this country at that par- ticular time. Thus a super-abun- dance of worldly wisdom, a lack of spiritual’ foresight and a owardice combined, to bring about a blunder hose evil results go beyond all cal- culstion. Had a ‘start been made then and had the liberated slaves been permitted to see one or more of their own race in the ranks of the Catholic clergy, there would never Rave arisen, as'it did arise, a feel- ing that they were not wanted in the Catholic Chureh, and now-a-days priests and religious who are work- ing among the descendants of these people would not have to be making, to such a large extent, excuses which do not excuse and explana- tions which donot explain. Of course, we are perfectly frank to admit that here in the United States the matfer of a native clergy for the colofed people presents many difficulties which’ are in every way exceptional and that it must_be handled with great prudence and a long suffering ‘patience, but, taking into consideration all the objections which may be éffered and estimating all the impediments which, naturally and unnaturally, may be expected to be placed in the way, we hark back to the words of St. Peter: “Who am I, that could withstand God?” If He give the vocation the last word is said, and though the nations rage and 'faint-hearted friends forsake, ours is the duty to go ahead with the task of providing a native clergy supported by the conviction that we are obedient to the teaching of the Catholic Church and that .we are following the example ‘she has shown all through the centuries, The Catholic Board for Mission Work Among the Colored People, National Headquarters, 1 Madison ‘Avenue, New York City.

Good bye, friends; I'm leaving Dixie, This old land no more I'll trod; Let me leave this message with you Always put your trust in Ged Hope the times will soon get better, Taen I'll come back here and see; But just now this place is dangerous, And it is no piace for me.
