BULLETIN
Chief of County Detectives Robert H. Braun, when asked by a representative of The Pittsburgh Courier as to what he was going to do about the Stowe township affair, said: "I have ordered my men to Stowe township to investigate, first, the part, if any, the officers of the community had in the infamous "order" and to ascertain what action they propose taking in protecting citizens of the commonwealth in their constitutional rights.
"I would suggest that the law-abiding Colored people pay no attention whatever to any such orders as are alleged to have been given by self-appointed guardians of the community's peace. The full power of the law of this county will be used to protect all citizens from violence. There is a proper way to apprehend any one charged with crime without molesting and intimidating law-abiding citizens."
TOLD TO GET OUT WITHIN 24-HOURS
Colored People of Stowe Township. Ignore Order of Vigilance Committee.
There are still people among us who insist upon "perpetuating the cast-off rags of old Russia!"
A "GO" order, issued to the Colored people of Stowe township Wednesday, ordering "every Negro to pack his belongings and move elsewhere within 24 hours," by a self-appointed vigilance committee of more than 200 men was met with calm intelligence! The order, which bears all the ear-marks of the Ku Klux Klan, followed the murder of Thomas Rowland, white, aged 75 years, and the wounding of his granddaughter, Edith Colter, aged 14, in West Park last Saturday night by an alleged Colored man. The committee visited him and sounded its warning and left with any show of violence, police say.
In the meantime, it is known that the colored inhabitants will not move on as ordered. It was said today that the murdered警官 had not been apprehended and that he was a Negro. The township has been the habitat of many Colored people for several years and many of them are determined that they shall not leave their homes when they have always been peaceful and that the "go" order was imitated from the action of Mayor Cauffel, of Johnstown, who (Continued on Page 13, Col. 3)

Unknown Man Hero
In Brushton Fire
An unknown colored man proved the hero of a fire on Tioga street, in the Brushman district, last Thursday morning, when, with the aid of firefighters, he rescued a man in a fire down, and aided a mother and her child to escape.
"I am sorry the unfortunate situation arose. I respect the tradition which Washington and Lee followed in refusing to play the game, but Wash-Jeff college is a Northern school with traditions, too. It has never made any distinction against color or creed in enrolling its students. Charles West, who was the cause of the controversy, has been one of the best students in the college for the last three years. He has been an honor to the school both as a student and as an athlete, adding to its prestige by his gentlemanly conduct and his efforts as an athlete.

WASHINGTON, Pa., Oct. 6.
—A seething mass of humanity, shaken as they never have been by a victory for their school on the gridiron, is mulling the downtown streets of this small town, made famous by the prowess of Washington and Jefferson College, tonight, as the attempt of Washington and Lee, a "cracker" college from Lexington, Va., to ram an atrocious insult down their throats, becomes more apparent.

Husband Fires Shot As Wife Attacks Victim. Police Arrest Four.
Wythe Clifton, aged 45, of 1420 Bedford avenue, was shot and killed Sunday following an argument with Erik E. Pike, 35 of his Clark street, in front of her home. Police say Mrs. Pope was sweeping the steps of her home when Clifton approached and started an argument.
According to police the woman attacked Clifton with a broom, strikethrough in the face, when Fred Pope, aged 38, emerged from the house flourishing a revolver. Two shots were fired, one of which pierced Clifton's mouth and lodged in the back of the neck.
The wounded man was taken to the Pamlico hospital where he died a few minutes later. His body was removed to the county morgue. Police are looking for Pope.

Rumor Has It That Slain Girl Was an Expectant Mother - New Developments Cast Peculiar Light on Mysterious Death of Nurse.
A new angle in the murder of Elsie Barthel, 28-year-old nurse (white), of Carroll street, near the old Hussey Mansion on Center avenue, Saturday night, came to light yesterday, when rumor had it that the young woman was an expectant mother! Alonzo Savage, alleged confessed slayer of the girl, is said to have disclosed the fact in explaining the alleged "love tangle" the girl wanted him to "cure". Although the county detective office was incommunicable and the police would not answer any questions, it was learned from a reliable source that Barthel woman, near the Hussey Mansion, was in love with the young woman and then murdered, since there was suspicion of some conspiracy, it is said.

Home of Rich Virginia Man Is Attacked
NORFOLK, Va., Oct. 11—Mystery surrounds the happenings in and around the home of W. B. Tran, wealthy colored man here, when he was attacked by attackers last Thursday night. Several shots were fired into Tran's home shortly before 12 o'clock and about an hour later, a cottage nearby was discovered in the house, to the ground, police were told.
Kidnapping Attempt Fails
About a month ago, an attempt was made by visitors who called at Trant's home about 11:30 o'clock at night, to take him away, but they were repulsed in their efforts by Trant's son, who opened fire with a shotgun when he went to his father's assistance on hearing his cries for help. The shooting last week, according to the county authorities was done with an automatic revolver. It is believed that jealousy over Trant's wealth caused the dastardly attack. After several bullets had been fired into the home, things quieted down. About an hour later, however, Trant and his son said they heard a car crash close by. They crouched on the floor of their home, as more bullets were pumped at the house. Suddenly, they saw the neighborhood light up, and discovered that a cottage nearby was ablaze.
Trant Refuses to Talk
The county authorities are not housed, and much toward tracing those responsible for the shooting up of Trant's home. Trant, himself, showed little disposition to talk, they said, when the first attack was made on him.
Ky. Governor Grants

FRANKFORT, Ky., Oct. 11. — Governor Edwin P. Morrow Friday granted a stay of execution in the case of Campbell Graham sentenced to Tennessee for Mitchell Neal, an inmate bootleger, a year ago.
The stay of execution is until November 12.
the girl, who drives the illegal encamped shyer, according to detectives, from East Liberty to a house in the hill District, has been held by the police. Captain Leiff Leif intimated, it is reported, that he was not yet satisfied that Haul's pickup vehicle was evidence. Haul has told several stories which, police say, have not been checked up as true.
New Developments
These new developments cast a peculiar light upon the mysterious death of the nurse. The reported confession of Savage showed one of the most brutal slayings in the history of the count. The weak link, which was a reason for the alleged killing, is a reason for the alleged killing. Just why Savage murdered the girl after she gave him an envelope which he thought, at the time, contained $300, is a mystery. It is alleged the girl made the appointment with Savage, and went to meet him in the mansion of her own free will. Savage believed he was a "woodoo doctor" and could "cure" her of her trouble palls into nothingness when it is known that she was a practical nurse and familiar with the seriousness of her condition. It is also said that Savage's friends knew nothing of his girl, and that she was a girl bewitched by Savage's tales of superstition and believed that he could by "charm" relieve her of the "burden" which, if known, would mean disgrace? Or was there something more than a legendary story of a woodooo "attracting the girl" that man—fame that was kindled during the war at the same place of employment and that separation fanned into a seething, consuming fire?
Explode "Voodoo" Theory
All these questions, and, more, have been voiced, when the reason for the slaying is considered. Evidence points to Savage's connection with the murder, according to the "vodoo" theory, the explosion of the "vodoo" theory, which conjure as to others, as yet unknown, being implicated. It was the belief that Savage had not made a complete confession, or that the complete confession was not made public, it is said. The searching for a "Will Rodgers." He is the mystery man of the case since Savage declares the girl gave his name as that of the sweetheart responsible for the condition which prompted her to come to him for aid. Savage, according to police, the shoemaker Miss Barthel from the Hill district at 6 P. M. Saturday, and she made an appointment to meet him at the deserted mansion at 9 P. M. The Barthel girl was found Sunday morning on the driveway, under the potato pitcher of the Hussey Center's press street, her skull crushed beneath a 70-pound stonet. An ance, deuce and trey of diamonds and a five of spades found in two blood-scattered white envelopes beneath the head of the victim gave cictetives their evidence. Savage followed.

Report Show Over $75,000 Raised in Year
By G. W. KINCAID
The 76th annual session of the Allegheny Conference of the A. M. E. Zion Church closed a memorable week in the history of Methodism. The conference, which convened in the John Wesley Church in Arthur street, Wednesday, brought to Pittsburgh the incarnation of the ecclesiastical lights, G. L. Blackwell of Philadelphia presided at the sessions, which continued through Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. Many inspiring addresses were made by leading pastors and the visiting clergy and laymen brought new thoughts and enthusiasm to the minds of the followers. Reports showed that $75,000 had been raised during the year.
Among the visitors were W. W. Matthews who recently returned from Africa, E. D. W. Jones of Washington, D. C., M. F. Jacobs of New York, Dr. Alleyne, New Rochelle, N. Y., W. W. J. Walls, editor of the Star of Zion, Charlotte, N. C. Each day the reports from the ministers and delegates showed great progress.
The following persons were elected delegates to the conference which meets in Indianapolis, Ind., in May, 1924; Dr. W. D. Clinton, F. S. Anderson, R. W. -Smith, L. L. Wood, Lay delegates, Ellen Poole, Mr. J. W. Miller. Rev. G. W. Kincardie was appointed presiding elder of the Allegheny district. Rev. J. C. Taylor, the ex-presiding elder, was appointed pastor at Braddock. Rev. E. L. Madison was returned as pastor of John Wesley. Few changes were made among the ministers. They adjourned to meet in 1924 in Uniontown, Pa.
WEEKLY SERMON If a Man Die, Shall He Live Again?
These are days of reckoning in world affairs. The new dawn usher in a panorama of possibilities. Man is becoming reconciled. In the process of evolution, progression is the thought. The observers today are biding the time with patience. They are good listeners, eager to absorb; readers, unbiased to opinion, seek information to become conversant with the issues. In that they are veritable storehouses of inestimable worth, their conscience quickened by experience makes them a necessity, an authority. Thus again we add, these are the thinkers. Without thought or deliberation there are people who are quick to form conclusions, case-hardened, of longstanding, to be settled in habits, their methods satisfy, and their highest ambition realized in their limited habitat. They cannot and will not rise to the things within their reach. We recall some while ago to a teacher of a small town who without reserve declared war on Spiritualism. He made challenge to a Spiritualist (minister) medium, for debate. The subject, Orthodox Toym Square. Largely advertised. The town people were in a state of expectancy. At the hour appointed the teacher and the medium greeted cordially. The medium's salutation to the teacher, to dear sir, with what knowledge and to what extent are you informed on Spiritualism? "The teacher made reply: "I know nothing of that stuff, Spiritualism, and furthermore I don't care to know. It is no good." The medium in response called the assembly to witness the confession of the teacher, adding that the declaration as noted, automatically magizhim (the teacher) incompetent for debate. The readers, the town folk laughed the teacher to seorn, and the audience dispersed. This experience is a lesson for ourselves. Let us not ridicule or ensure without warrant. May we be securely founded lest we be weighed and found wanting. Some times prejudice bars the door of our conscience and we cannot grow. Lesse be observers, reasoners and thinkers. This system of Demonstrative Truth in Spirit Communication is an institution ordained of God. Jesus said, "No man at any time has heard the voice of God or seen his shape." Then his Divine Plan is made manifest, in that man and angel commune to do His (God's) will and purpose. May we give the condition in living a prayer dedicated to His service, and our souls will be in proximity with our Creator and ourselves. Then we will understand.
Read and think for yourselves.
And ye shall know the truth, and
the truth shall set you free.

Father Bishop Resigns Holy Cross Parish
Rector Going to New York to Take Up Duties at St. Philip's Parish.
After eight years of active influential service in the city of Pittsburgh, the Rev. Shelton Hale Bishop, Inst Sunday, resigned his charge as roctor of the Church of the Holy Cross, Center Ave. and Watt St. He resigned to go to be assistant to his father, the Rev. Hutchens C. Bishop, at St. Philip's Parish, New York City. He will leave Pittsburgh No. 15th.
venture.
Father Bishop came to Pittsburgh in September, 1913, from Chicago, Ill. He assumed charge of St. Augustine's, Jackson St., North Side. By diligent and efficient work he built up that Mission Station to such an extent that he attracted the attention of St. Philip's Church on Center-Ave., then without a rector, by reason of the protracted illness of Rev. Scott Wood. According to an arrangement made with the late Bishop Whitehead, Father Bishop was called upon to unite the North Side Church and the Center Ave. Church and become the new rector. This was accomplished and on December 8, 1916, he took up his duties. The united congregation chose the name of Holy Cross very shortly afterward and has retained come to the present.
that name. During the administration of the Rev. Father Bishop, the work has taken on larger proportions and commanded the attention of the whole community. Under him, during the war readjustment period, two lots belonging the church were bought and a parish house purchased from the University of Pittsburgh, S. A. T. C. was erected. This, it might be well to state, is the only building in the city of Pittsburgh owned and operated by Negroes, where lectures, concerts, banquets and entertainments can be given. It has always served the community in a large way where possible. In April, 1921, the parish also purchased a beautiful rectory on Monti-St. Homewood.
cello Set.
Father Bishop has always taken a large part in the affairs of race people in this city that represented moral and social betterment. His interests, while first and for his own parish people, were not confined to those narrow limits. It was his work heard—that
it will long be remembered, made it possible for several Pittsburgh boys to get out of the Labor Battalion in Camp Lee, and finally become officers in the army. For two years he was president of the local branch of the N. A. A. C. P., and also served on committees of the Urban League and Y. M. C. A. His work among the young people of Pittsburgh is outstanding! The boy choir in his church, the annual camp for boys started by him, the Holy Cross basketball team, the operatives produced under his management, the high order of social dances which he sponsored—these are only a few of the ways he has used to gather the young people from the evil attractions by which they are surrounded into a spiritual, wholesome, moral atmosphere. Pittsburgh will never forget his work among the young people.
The work to which he is going is the largest Episcopal Church for those of our race in the world. In resigning to his congregation on last Sunday, Father Bishop said, "It is the splendid experience that I have had with you here at Holy Cross that has made it possible for me to go to that large work in New York". His own congregation is outspoken in their expression of regret that they are to lose their pastor.

Church Notes
Oliver N Carter, Pastor
It seems as though the hearts of the people were filled Sunday, and they came, as it were, to give God the praise, the manifestations of the Holy Spirit, was evident upon the faces of every one. Our Sabbath school was well attended and many new scholars added to the roll. We were largely represented in the district union, at the Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist church at 3 o'clock Sunday afternoon, which was an inspiration to all who attended. At 11 A. M. Dr. Banks, of Homestead, Pa. preached for us, and by his masterful way, lifted us to a higher plane, both spiritually and morally. The B. Y. P. U. at 6:30 P. M. rendered an interesting program. At 8 P. M. our pastor preached from the text Jer. 8-22 subject, "The Great Physician," which was enjoyed by all present. The people of the community seem to appreciate the great work being done by the First Baptist church, and are lending a ready and helping hand to promote the cause of Christ. Dr. P. L. Scruggs, pastor of New Zion Baptist church, of Chicago, Ill., preached for us Thursday and Friday evenings of last week, and left us a message that we can't forget. He is truly one of God's great men in that sinners are converted to Christ.
The pastor was called from his home at 30 Mayflower street, East End, Monday evening, by a hoax, and when he returned heard music and mirth in his home, and the singing of that familiar hymn, "God Will Take Care of You." greeted his ears and to his astonishment found a delegation of his members and friends standing around the dining room table, which was creaking under the weight of good things from matches to money. Being visibly surprised and overwhelmed at such a token of respect for his services, he was unable to proceed until sat down while his noble wife made the speech in his stead while tears were visible in every eye. Those present were Sisters Fallon, Frye, Smith, Walker, Baldwin, Plato. Morgan and Brothers Herron, Weaver, Jones, Fallon and others, though not present, sent their respects. On Tuesday, October 16, Rev. N. C. Evans will take us on a trip to the Holy Land. Come early, don't miss these pictures.

THE PITTSBURGH COURIER
The Rev. J. G. St. Clair Drake, pastor of the Bethany Baptist Church on Tigua street, left on Monday the 8th inst., with his son, St. Clair, for New York City. From thece he will sail on Tuesday, the 9th, for Barbados, British West Indies Island. His mother, who is very aged and ill, requested him to come home before she passes to the great beyond. The members of the church, when informed of the expected departure of their pastor, were visibly touched at both services on Sunday, Dr. Drake, notwithstanding the fact that he was under a great strain, preached two very practical, instructive and spiritual sermons at 11 A. M. and 7:30 P. M. At the close of the evening services the members unanimously granted him an indefinite leave of absence and presented him a splendid purse. Many useful articles were presented him and St. Clair also. It has been also arranged that Mrs. Drake, at an early date, will visit her parents at Staunton, Virginia.

The Sigma Gamma Rho is one of the sororities on Wilberforce Campus, which has recently entered the arena of noble Grecian. This organization is for those above high school grade, who are striving to become teachers. The Alpha chapter was organized in Indianapolis in 1922 under the farsighted leadership of Miza Mary Lour Alison. One of the chief aims of this sorority is to encourage the prospective teachers to continue with their education until they have obtained a degree. The Normal Girls on Wilberforce Campus caught the spirit, and Kappa chapter was organized here April 21, 1923. The following are chartered officers and members: Homer Woods, president; Elizabeth Crosby, vice president; Minnie Mae Conbin, secretary; Lucille Watsonf treasurer; Anna Leach, critic; Arolla McGhee, alumni secretary, and Josephine Harper, journalist. Members are Cora Corneal, Carrie Cotton, Mildred Lytle, Zenobia Fleming, Willie Lee Preston, Annie Turner, Thelma Ray, Marion Bell, Florina Bell, Irene Fife, Mildred Tate, Addenne Maxwell, Thelma Gray, Marie Humble, Ursula Moats, Thelma McDonough, Nellie Beridon. Among this number there were four graduates from the Normal Department in June, 1923.

Both of these young women are fond of here this year and we are wishing for them much success in their college course.

Here's the Best One Yet, An Ugliness Contest in Brazil
Amidst all the beauty contests that have recently been staged in Latin countries on both sides of the Atlantic, it is almost refreshing to note that not only did Brazil have the stage to stage an ugliness competition—"for ladies only"—but that the announcement brought out more than 300 candidates. But out of the 300, only 229 were allowed to compete, because it was discovered that the remainder had deliberately gotten themselves up to be homely. Only genuine hideousness, of the amateur, born-in variety was accepted.
The prize winner was a widow of thirty-two severe summers, who took apparently more pride in her trophy than many a "queen of beauty." She is understood to be contemplating another plunge in matrimony, thanks to her notoriety acquired by the contest and the tidy "dot" that made the prize.
again arrived and with the coming of the fall we hear everywhere the ringing of the school bell. Schools, colleges and universities have opened and everything seems to be in full bloom. Wilberforce university has opened with a large enrollment. The beautiful campus is crowded with students, and here and there can be seen Delta girls so full of enthusiasm that they are bubbling over with plans for the school year of 1923-1924. Members of Beta chapter of Delta Sigma Theta Sorority are delighted to have their president, Soror Mary Lee Fisher, of Owensboro, Ky., back with them. Soror Fisher has won a host of friends with her winning personality.
Sunday evening, September 30,
from 6:30 to 9, the Delta girls
entertained the new college students
at Soror Geraldine Jackson's residence.
The guest list included about
55 and the affair proved quite a
delightful one.
It seems as if Cupid is forever
lurking around. He has shot an
other arrow and this time it
has entered our circle, Soror Hazel
Taylor being the victim. Soror Taylor
is engaged to Bernard Paxton, a
senior college graduate of '23 and
Kappa Alpha Psi.
Sorors Beunetta Alle and Ruth
Anderson haven't returned to school
as yet, but we are hoping that they
will not tarry away any longer.
Soror Grace Edmonds is teaching
this year. We are sorry that she
did not return, yet we wish her
much success in her new undertaking.
Soror Ethel Sutton, who taught in
the Academic department last year,
has been transfered to the Normal
department.
Soror Alberta Brazier, from Mobile, Ala., was accompanied to school this fall by her mother, Mrs. W. H. Brazier.
We all regret very much that one of our pledges, Miss Lula Mae Johnston, did not return. Yet we are glad that she entered Pitt and we wish her much success.
The school year is just beginning, but we expect to have a successful year and to overcome all obstacles in order to accomplish our plans for this school year.

Shiek — Can you imagine Mr. Crumplin and Paul Lyons going to Cleveland to be made Omega Phi Pi?
Shiekess —Why not? Didn't Fouchie make it?
Shiek —By the way, that is true. Too bad Swanson isn't here to take the trip with them.
There has been quite a stir on the campus since the athletic shiek of New York made his appearance, and so far the young lady from Winfield, Kansas, seems to be holding the royal flush, while the lady from Atlanta holds the deuce.

Ira P. Huff
Pittsburgh, and especially the East End community, will welcome the return of Ira P. Huff, the noted lecturer. Those who have not heard him will take advantage of the opportunity to come under the magic sound of his voice and the influence of his fertile thought Sunday, October 14, at 4:30 P. M., in the Eternal Church, 220 Auburn street, East end. His topic will apouse great interest and broaden one's understanding and knowledge of God's plan as set forth in the Bible. The lecturer refuses to take up a collection at any of his meetings, and he will not make a departure at the Sunday service. Friends are welcome.

SATURDAY, OCTOBER
Act Of 66
October 15. Special midnight show
The noted musical comedy "Liza" in two acts and 11 scenes; book by Irvin Miller and lyrics and music by Maco Pinkard, will begin a limited engagement at the Lyeum Theater, Monday, October 15, with matinees Wednesday and Saturday.
When "Liza" was first produced at Daly's Theater, New York, last season, it was described as a "Lively, ingratiating and melodious entertainment." Another critic spoke of it as "An ingenious collection of musical comedy material sung, danced, and acted with much vehemence." Mr. Broun, the noted writer and critic, speaking of the colored players, found the dancing to be "the contribution of a race in which rhythm is a sense as definite as sight or touch or hearing." When 40 or 50 performers begin to sway and thrub to the music, there comes the realization that there is something which nobody else has. We have seen dancing more beautiful, but none which began as exciting. After seeing "Liza" we have a vague impression that all other dancers whom we saw did nothing but minuets."
The story of "Liza" is about the efforts of the citizens of Jintown to erect a monument to its former mayor and is portrayed in two acts and 11 scenes.

ALITTLE-BIT-O' EVERYTHING
Manners!
Then there is a sort of bad manners that even the most cosmopolitan of people may commit. These are the bad manners that are due to lack of consideration of others. We say it is ill-bred to crow our way into public conveyances, to upbraid our servants before other people, to assume a patronizing manner when talking with persons whom we regard as our inferiors. But there are some people whose pedigree dates back to William the Conqueror and whose education has been perfect, and whose character has been that of other people who have had no advantages either of birth or training who have the instinctive good breeding of the heart that makes it impossible for them to be guilty of that kind of bad manners.
Then there are bad 'manners'—which the French would call gaucheries, derived from their word for the left hand—that are simply due to clumsiness. Some people have to struggle most against this kind of bad manners. There are the faults peculiar to another class of persons.
Begging
In every/community there are certain men and women who have the reputation of being good beggars and a person who is known to be a "good beggar" is usually sought eagerly by boards of managers and committee chairmen in all sorts of charitable and philanthropic organizations. But to be a good beggar does not mean simply to start courageously trying to persuade other folk to give for whom chosen cause. To be a good beggar you must be able to raise funds without giving offence or causing regret. Your wise rule if you are managing an organization, never to send a rich woman to beg from a poor person. And it is wise also to remember in your begging that you should never take the attitude that people are only doing their duty in contributing.
Scrub Brushes
Scrub brushes should be thoroughly cleaned between using. They should then be dried by placing them on their sides. A good plan is to put all cloths used in cleaning into a solution of ammonia and water with soap-suds after each using. Brushes need only to be rinsed in running water and well shaken out.
Scars of all sorts are another detail that has come into renewed fashion with the return of the tailored suit. The homespun scarf of varying weights is especially smart. It is made in stripes running both lengthwise and crosswise; and in plains of every conceivable kind, so far as the spacing of the crossing bars is concerned. As for colors the different smart shades of brown and tan are the most used, with an occasional bar of orange, yellow, or blue.

Pink and white roses and autumn leaves in profusion lent their color and fragrance for the marriage of Miss. Lurella Juanita Irvine, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Harry Irvine, and Edward Coleman of this city, which was solemnized at 8-P. M. last evening at the home of the bride's parents, in Hiker street.
The bride and groom stood under a shower of pink and white roses where the nuptial service was performed in the living room by Rev. Charles Bundy, pastor of Oak Hill Avenue, A. M. E. church, the ring services being used. The groom entered the room with his mother, Mrs. Williams, who was gowned in black drape with black jet trimmings, followed by the bride's little brother, Harry Irvine, Jr., who was ring bearer. He was dressed in black satin with white trimmings, and carried the ring on a white satin pillow.
The flower bearers followed, carrying tiny wicker baskets filled with rose petals, scattering them in the pathway of the bride; the bride's sister, Esther Albertine, who was dressed in white organdie and pink bow, ribbon, also the bride's three cousins, Marguerite and Elva May Parsons, who were dressed in pink silk trimmed in white lace, and Vera Dorothy Duffy, who was dressed in white organdie, lace trimmed.
Miss Irvine, who entered on the arm of her father, Harry Irvine, was radiant as a bride, her lovely wedding gown of white accordion-crepe, with pearl head dress and she carried a beautiful bouquet of bride's roses and sweet peas tied with tulle. The wedding march, "Lohengrin," was played by Miss Elizabeth Lynch, while during the marriage ceremony Miss Lynch played sweetly "O Promise Me." Mrs. Irvine was gowned in black crepe with silver lace trimmings.
A lovely bridal theme of pastel pink and white tones was revealed in the appointments of the wedding dinner, where covers were arranged for 50 guests. The bride's bouquet was caught by Miss Thelma Austin, Mr. and Mrs. Cochran, and many pretty gifts. They will reside for the present at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. William Wade, Earl avenue.
Miss Amazetta Miller received members of the Dramatic club last evening at her home in Chicago avenue. After a brief business session a social hour was held and refreshments served. The guests were William Wright, William Moore, of Baltimore, and Gilbert Smith. The club will meet Friday evening with Miss Lucile Murray, McGuffey road.
Clubwomen!
The motto of some of the club presidents I have met seems to be "Dominate or be damned!" Others, again, rule with the iron hand in the velvet glove. The best club president I have met in America hails from Boston, with the second best on the other side of the continent not far from Los Angeles. Everything tumbles on the president. If she be on "old fogey," with no literary taste and a tendency to Comstockism, she can paralyze any thought in her club. If, on the other hand, she be of the type of my Boston friend, with humor and literary understanding, she can lift her club to the seventh heaven, and the seventh thousand!
One of the curses of many of the clubs I have visited is the curse of "playing at politics." What I have seen within the space of a few hours in some clubs in the way of "string-pulling and jockeying place" would give the Clementean of Lloyd Diffie, a woman with this special ability, back thru thick and thin for the leadership of the club and through it all the club suffers.

Eastern Snapshots
John Henry Lloyd, the man who gave Hildale its world-beating team, is now in sunny Cuba. He left this city accompanied by Mrs. Lloyd and Mack Eggleston, Ben Taylor's great young catcher. John Henry is to be first lieutenant to Luque, of Cincinnati, who will manage the Havana Red Sox.
Already the larger hotels here in Philadelphia are receiving reservations for Thanksgiving. From the amount of interest being manifested a "packed house" will witness the football classic at the Phillies' park.
The Commonwealth Big Five is tuning up for action in Harlem and on the road. The writer has received a neat little announcement from MacMahon brothers, owners of what they style "the Worlds Colored Champions," also "Basketball's Greatest Attraction."
From the latest dope extant it seems that Frank Forbes and Hilton Slocum will be among the missing. The Strangler and the Kid are said to be planning a new "pro" five for the Big Town. It is announced that Sessoms will play with Commonwealth.
Queer thing about "Sess." With Loendi the long "un is a world heater; with every other team he has been a "dud." If he has definitely cast his lot with the MacMahons here is hoping he has his best year.
This is supposed to be the inside dope on why George Godfrey "ran out" on Battling Siki, the Singular Semegalese. Godfrey agreed to meet Siki for a nominal purse; but later demanded $5,000 as his end. Five, "grand" is a whole lot of money for any "ham-and." fighter to want and Leo Rains and his associates refused to see the raise. George said he would not fight and that made it unanimous. Thus we Quaker City folk lost our opportunity to see the French Colonial in his first battle on American soil.
The Lincoln University squad had their first game on Saturday and it proved little more than a work-out for the varsity. The light Borden-town team was smothered by the heavier Lion line. From the time Capt. Johnson made the first touchdown five minutes after the first period began—it was only a question of how large the score would be. Johnson, Byrd, Goodman and Lee led the attack while the line put up a Gibraltar defense. It looks as if Coach Young has something to build with.
Sporting writers throughout the East are unanimous in their praise of the W. & J. officials for the stand they took in Saturday's dispute over Charlie West. The southern school knew before they left home that West was a Negro. It, no doubt, was their hope that, rather than cancel the game at the last minute W. & J. would accede to their demands. Instead, they caught a Tastar. They found that even Northern folk can have traditions and principles. Ku Klux ideas cannot be stuffed down the throat of President Baker, of Little Washington.
Coach Heisman, who spent twenty-five years in the cotton bolt and made Georgia Tech famous, is truly a big man now. It would have been the easiest thing in the world for him to keep West out and assign no reason. But he kept the faith and our hats are off to him.
Well. Hillidale is the official champion of the Philadelphia Baseball Association, having won the three-cornered play-off on Saturday among the leaders of the northern, southern and Jim Crow sections, but the title
In the last group were the Philadelphia Giants, the Madison Stars and the Richmond Giants. President Bolden fatly refused, to our knowledge, to play a series with James Stephens' Philadelphia Giants. He told Mr. Stephens that he would withdraw from the P. B. A. if the organization insisted that he play the games.
Now the question rises—how could Hildale be champions of the Jim Crow division when they never played the other members?
Fitz Pollard, reports come, will play football in the coal regions this fall. Carbondale and another city are bidding for the former Brown flash's services.
Ben Taylor's Washington Potomacs closed a very successful season insofar as winning games was concerned, when they beat the Baltimore Blacksox for the fifth time in their championship series in Petersburg, Va. The Potomacs have proved to be one of the strongest clubs in the East. Their record for the season was 50 won, 36 lost and 4 tied. Most of the
games were.
Manager Ben has found several promising youngsters, the best-looking ones being Goodrich, third baseman, and "Pete" Washington, but fielder. Jefferson and Eggleston had one of their best years. "Country Brown, Negro baseball's leading comedian (that boy can play, too), was handpicked by injuries most of the season. "Stringbeans" Williams, the fifty-year-old veteran; Maceo. Clarke and Bill Rankin were Ben's pitchers during the last month of the season.
Ben, himself, had another one of his good years. "Old Reliable" is the class of the East on the initial base. Age cannot wither or time dim the eye of that rare old bird. He is finishing the season with Baltimore and will be back in Washington next year with a stock company back of him and a high-class team in the field.
"I don't believe the fight will go more than two rounds. I am in the best condition and there is a lot at stake. You can know that I'll be doing my best to end it with a quick K. O.
Homer Smith
"I have never seen Wills in action outside of the gym, but I don't think he can pumph with Firpo. I'll be there at the end of the tenth round, a winner."

Va. Normal Coached In New System
PETERSBURG, Va., Oct. 11. After about ten days of intensive training and hard grinding on the part of the teams, the Hill Topper's squad has begun to settle itself down to the form which it displayed during the middle of last season. Altho working under new coaches, who used a system different from that which was used here at any previous season, it is one of the big surprises to see the alacrity with which the entire squad has worked itself into the new plays and formations; and even the recruits are making the showing that will upset the usual dope as to who will play

Coach Graves has devoted his time this week to developing that backfield which is destined to shatter the hopes of the association members this year; and the showing of Coles, Epps, Turner, D.

In addition to these men, the coach has developed a reserve back field which will be able to take care of our interests in any event, through the entire season.

Homer Robinson Wins Over Frisco Kid in Youngstown
YOUNGSTOWN, O., Oct. 11.—Battling against a lad, claimed to be a "pocket-edition" of Joe Gans, the old master, Homer Robinson, of Pittsburgh, former-A. A. U. champion, outpointed the Frisco Kid here Monday, night in 10 rounds. The local favorite, who is credited with a knockout over Art Stigall, and stalked well-wornweight, never recovered fully from a knockdown in the first round, and stalled throughout the rest of the fight, clinching often to save himself from punishment. Robinson waged his usual cool aggressive fight.
Ohio School Eleven to Open Season Next Saturday Against Strong Dayton Club.
WILBERFORCE, O., Oct. 11.—Wilberforce University's football team will open its season with the Dayton Independent team on Saturday, Oct. 13.
The "Force" eleven is fast rounding into shape for the hard series of games ahead of them. A scrimmage game between two teams picked from the squad showed the development of the "rush" line, and the physical condition of the regulars.
Two Men at Quarter
Redden and Stout have been working at quarter, with Captain Hurd, Johnson, Springs, Sewich, Lewis, Thompson and Coleman in the backfield.
Huff has been out of the game for a week, due to a pulled tendon. Pete Willett has returned and will report this week for practice. Brown, veteran end, has also been out of the game for three days, but is again on duty.
New Man at End
Woolridge, one of the finds of the season, has been at right end. He is a wonder-at pulling down forward passes and a veritable tower of strength on the defensive. The line, though green, has marked improvement. Bickett and Fields, all-W. Va. Mission, are up in spirit and will be heard before the end of season. Of the veterans, A. Smith, R. Smith, House, Holmes, Jenkins, Berry and Stewart have been showing real form.
Three "Triple-Threat" Men
Wilberforce is fortunate in having at least eight backfield men that rank among the best in the intercollegiate world, with three of them perfect "triple-threat" men. With a good injunction of school spirit and fight, the team is expected to go the whole season undefeated.
St. Paul Gridders Conquer Seminary InGreatStyle,10-0
By J. L. Whitehead
LAWRENCEVILLE, Va., Oct. 6.—With a determined offense that threatened to annihilate Virginia Seminary at several stages of the game, and with a defense that refused to acknowledge even the possibility of a defeat, St. Paul's premier machine swept to a 10 to 0 victory in their opening clash of the season here today. Not in the history of collegiate athletics is there recorded a cleaner and more scientific oval battle than that on historic Russell Field this afternoon.
The Sportive Realm (Prospective and Retrospective)
Admirers of clean sportsmanship throughout the country are loud in their praise of the stand taken by the W. & J. authorities, last Saturday, against the unspoisonmanlike and un-American demand of Washington and the university's football team, which refused to go on the field unless West, the star of the Red and Black, was removed from the lineup.

W. & J. has grown great over the incident; she has won well wishers whose deference and respect to the noble RED and BLACK, will take the same position in their heart of hearts as other ideals over which men lose their lives.

INSTITUTE, W. Va., Oct. 5.—All present indications are that is going to be in the State of West Virginia another football team to which the eyes of the sport-loving public will turn with great frequency; for it seems destined that there will be at the West Virginia Collegiate Institute another of those football teams which have so delighted the fans of Charleston and other places and which have occupied so prominent a place in collegiate football circles.
About sixty men have for two weeks been practicing daily under the guidance of Coaëh A. P. Hamblin and his assistants. Among these are twelve letter men from the team of last year, and a number of former high school stars whose calibre on the collegiate gridiron is yet to be proved.

Young 'Brickley' Is Uncovered At Va. High School
ROANOKE, Va., Oct. 11—Prospects for a winning team at Harrison High this year are very good. Coach Lawson has his men out every aft 'moon in preparation for the hardest season that the team has ever faced. On next Friday there is a game with Bluefield Inst. or Klimball High School, now pending. On the following Friday the Team goes to Washington to play Dunbar High. This game is looked forward to with unusual interest by all. Last year Harrison was leading Dunbar by 6 to 0 until the last few minutes of play, when they managed to put over a touchdown and kick the goal for the extra point. Harrison is in for revenge this year, and with practically the entire team intact the prospects are very good. Two squads are on hand every afternoon and all are fighting for a place. At a meeting of the squad, last week, Right Tackle Robert, Burrell was elected Captain. Burrell was a tower of

Despite the fact that the Lincoln Giants hoyered near the callar all of the season they have six regulars who hit the ball for an average over the 200 mark and compiled the best team average of the season.
To the champion Hilldale team, some more individual honors are lagged in by Briggs and Warfield, the two best run getters in the circuit, Briggs tallied 39 times during league games and Warfield ran him a close second with 38 markers.

Vincent's until some time ago, when,
it is alleged she broke off the rela

the Tandys of influencing Miss King
to sever their friendship. Dr. Vin-
cent is married, His wife was Miss
Naomi Tulane, of Montgomery, Ale,
tho, daughter ’ of Victor Tulane, a
trustee of Tuskegee Institute. Biss
King also comes. from a. prominent
New England family and is popular
in the social set. Miss King says
it is reported, that she knew Dr.
Vineent was married, and that _he
said it would not make any differ-
ence, that he love dher (Miss King)
and would sacrifice everything
In a reported interview, Miss King
is alleged to have said:
“Dr. Vincent has threatened to kill
jue and for several weeks I feared to
30 upon the streets. I believed him
fo be demented. He has caused me
{0 Worry so that 1 was. forced tc
leave the city. I sought rest and
protection at a summer home in

‘ago. I had only been there 2 short
time when he learned my where-

It was just last month, 1 under-
stand, hte .ld his wite he Was going
to Boston for a few days. Instead
he and Eugene Moore, son of Fred
Moore, of the New York Age, mo-
tored to where I was and caused a

force me fo be friendly with him and
demanded that I get in his car. This
I refured to do and he began to use
physical force upon ine, during
whieh he snateked an earring from
my right ear, hurting me terribly.
He has proully displayed thé earring
about the streets of New York ani
made remarks about how he hap-
pened to be in possession of it.
“T have never accepted any money
irom Dr. Vincent, nor has he ‘kept
me at any time since I have known
him. ‘The statement made by me in
the affidavits are positively true. Not
only has he talked about Sirs. Tandy,
but he has made malicious remarks
about Mrs. Bessie Beardman, Mrs
Bernie Austin and many other prom-
inent, women.” Z
Judging from Miss King's alleged
statement Dr. Vincent was come iit-
tle gossiper. | Mrs. Bernie Austin
and Mrs. Bessie Beardman, ageinst
Shom he is also, alleged.’ to have
“talked” maliciously, are popular
members of the eastern social col-
ony. Mrs. Austin is one of New
York's prettiest matrons, and Mrs.
Beardman is also a beauty and fash-
ionable society woman. ‘They are
both interested in charitable affairs
of all kinds, and just several week
ago Mrs. Beardman was named as
chairman of the Japanese. Colored
Relies Committee ‘and assisted tne
New York County Chapter of the
American Red Cross in raising thou-
sands for devastated Japan.
In spite of the, gossip and noto
riety, Major Tandy’ remains by the
site of his wife. He is a well-known
men. He was formerly with the 15th
Infantry. His architectural reputa-
tion is national. A few years ago
he distingvished himself in a¢com
plishing: the realization of the dream
of the late Madam C. J, Walker in

D strong. that it affected even his sense of smell? he ask-
ed himself, as there flashed into his mind visions of full-
page ads in the leading Sunday newspapers and popular periodi-
cals, as wel! as street car ads, recommending preparations to
white people to remove their odors. Many other details crowd-
ed into his migd as the odor of shop girls in hedted department
stores; of crowded whites in the New York subways} of that
of even cleanly, refined. white women and girls in thin shirt-
waists, pazticularly when excited; he thought also of the great
amount of deodorants on the car used by passéngers to drown
their various ¢dors, but mentioned none of these facts. He said
instead: “May I reed to vou what Sir Harry Johnston has to say
on this?” He took out his note-book and read the following quo-

Poor little fellaw was being roasted

Dixon went on to tell of a passen-
ger who walkeil in his sleep and
had a narrow eicape from stepping
off a moving train. But the Senator
was apparently: little interested in
the incident and again brought up
the original conve-sation. Dixon re-
membered the passage he had start-
ed to read. Finding it again, he be-
gan.
“The antieyplagss ‘ava not sue-
ceeded in finding tve essential varia.

The Senator wa: listening atten-
tively ‘and said nothing. Dixon re-
sumed his reading:
“Very frequently the socalled in-
ferior races show precisely the phy

ing all preconceived methods, place
them at tHe head of humanity. Aft

came from North Africa...”
“But what of the skull of the Ne-
gro?” objected the Senator, “The

smaller than that of the white. The
complexity of the convolutions of

Harold Lloyd's introduction of this type of comedy in "Grandma's Boy" created a sensation among public and critics who were weary of the set-um-up-and-knock-em-down type of film. Lloyd has determined to keep comedy at this high plane, and in "Why Worry," his last picture for Hal Roach and his newest Pathecomedy, he does so, but in a little different manner than in "Gradma's Boy" and "Safety Last."
"Why Worry" is straight farce. It can be likened best to the high-class musical comedy, with its slightly overdrawn plot, yet with the characters kept virtually true to life and true to the atmosphere in which they are set. The story is an adventurous affair in which the deceptively quiet-appearing Harold is the storm center of a revolution—a story of South American intrigue such as Richard Harding Davis and Harry delighted in. Lloyd crams it with laughable situations all of which are inexplicably apparent in the plot, and to keep a sustained plot moving and still maintain a staccato laugh effect is an achievement worthy of any comedian.
So the new type of comedy that Harold Lloyd sponsors is funny in spite of everything; funny because it is so human.
Slapstick is dead! Long live humor! Lloyd's laughs last!
The picture appears at the Elmore theater next Wednesday and Thursday.

BIG NAVY SCENES ARE SHOWN IN 'SILENT COMMAND'
Spectacular Fox Production Shows Atlantic Fleet in Battle Array Entering Panama Canal
Romance and World Intrigue Blended to Make Strong Story of Wide Spread Appeal
There is no finer or more inspiring sight on earth or on the waters that ever have been easier than a fleet of battleships stepping ahead at full speed. During the great war, when New York harbor was the rendezvous of United States naval craft of all sorts and the mouth of the harbor was guarded by a powerful boom, it was one of the inducements to a trip down the bay on a pleasure boat to watch a warship or government transport slip quietly out to sea and steam away into the distance. The sense of bow and up-to-the-second effulence that they used craft always conveyed was matched by the grace of line and ease of motion that invariably accompanied its appearance.
In "The Silent Command," the William Fox spectacular melodrama which is booked at the Elmore theater next Monday and Tuesday, the Atlantic fleet is shown during a visit to the Panama Canal. Several important scenes of the story were taken while the fleet was under way and also at anchor at the Coco Sola wavie phase. Shots of the different naval ships in the canal itself also were made. The crew of the cast, including Byron Douglas, who impersonated the Admiral of the fleet, were shown on board of these vessels. Other impersonators of officers are Edmund Lowe as captain, Richard Decatur and Gordon McEdward as Lieut: Gridley Nevins.
Tom Moore At Best In Film Sensation
Tom Moore's is a name for film fans to conjure with, so the announcement that he is starring in "Harbor Lights," the five-part Associated Exhibitors picture billed to show at the Elmore theater next Friday and Saturday, is good news. Moore entered pictures after a successful experience in stock, and immediately gained a warm place in the affections of many thousands of picturegoers. Intensely human, with a smile that radiates optimism, and an appealing personality, he is a most likeable person, and, instinctively, a charmer of the feminine beauty. But he is much more than that. At the very outset of his career he proved himself an actor of genius and of versatility and his greatest successes have been achieved in roles calling for more than a small display of vivid acting and energetic, virile aggressiveness.
As Leut. David Kingsley, a sea commander. Mr. Moore is said to be cast in "Harbor Lights" in a part for which he is pre-eminently fitted, for it is a characterization calling for just such a combination of those qualities which few men on either the stage or the screen possess but which are united in him. Co-starred with Isobel Elsom, and surrounded by an admirable supporting cast, Tom Moore does probably the best work of his life in "Harbor Lights," a moving melodrama of sensational-storm scenes, realistic fist fights, spine-tingling encounters on the brink of cliff and thrilling lifeboat rescues, all incidental to a powerful story of romance and hate and passion
White Man Arrested For Molesting Girls
Loe Gill, a white man, was arrested last Friday evening by City Fireman Edward Worthy (colored) and lodged in jail on a charge of molesting several race girls.
FEW people live in their own times. They live in some imagined romantic past which was just as common and matter-of-fact as the present is, or in some imagined millennial future which when it arrives will be just as common as today. Their attitude toward their own times is one of indifference or challenge. Yet today is the past brought up to date; today is the threshold of the future. If you can interpret today you have a finer view into tomorrow than the visionary who cannot see today for tomorrow's castles in the air. People are mentally suffering, are needlessly lacerating themselves, because they have assumed that Today means nothing and cannot be interpreted. Yet if today has no meaning, the past was a Blank and the future is a chaos. But today has a meaning, all the meaning that there is; it is the root, the chrysalis of all that is to come.

Musical Critics Loud in Praise of Miss Mitchell's Debut Into Realm of Serious Drama.
NEW YORK, Oct. 11.—Miss Mitchell made a triumphant debut September 26th, into the realm of serious music! A concert recital under the auspices of Mrs. Bertha Des Verney, was presented in Mother A. M. E. Zion church, and critics have been loud in praise of her work. Lucien H. White says: "The Bach number, that pathetic, soul-wrenching cry of the Saviour uttered just after Judas had finished his fore-ordained task of treachery, 'Bleed and Break,' as portrayed in the 'Passion of St. Matthew,' was a fitting beginning for the program. She sang it with dramatic breadth and power and gave to all the poignancy of the Christ's grief. In her succeeding numbers, there was exhibited a past mastery in the art of singing. To each number, was given the proper tone color, whether of joy or sorrow, of triumph or despair, or the still, smooth flowing of pastoral expression."
"For years this young woman has been known to the theater-going public as one of the most talented disciples of Thespis' the race has produced. Her work, first, in musical comedy in connection with her husband, Will Marion Cook; who won musical recognition years ago through his song writings, and then in drama, latterly with the Lafayette Players, gave her an exalted standing with the two classes of followers—the devotee of light and frivolous music and the student of serious drama. It was only her real musical intimate view of the aspirations she cherished to become an exponent of the higher forms of musical art, and if it was only this inner circle of her associates who knew of the long hours she spent in close and earnest study of lieder.
On Friday night a special midnight ramble, beginning at 11:30 P.M., will be held.
"Darling of the Rich" will be shown Thursday and Friday and "Up in the Air About Mary" will appear Saturday.
The pictures for next week are announced in another part of this paper.
You Can't Miss "By Gosh"
Next Friday and Saturday, in addition to the regular attraction, comes "By Gosh" and the self-demolf minstrels, 50 home grown kildies will appear in vaudeville, and their anties cause more laughs than a circus clown. See 'em shake a wicked shoulder in the shimmy contest.

accented and modern, and of the soprano roles of many of the big operas. But it is a fact, vouched for and authenticated, that even while engaged publicly in the most frivolous of interpretations she was at the same time continuing her study of the work of Bach, Schubert, Brahms, Franz, Massenet, and the other composers of the severe classic school. "Much of this study has been done under the coaching of Melville Charlton, reaching 20 years back into the future, and it was under Mr. Charlton's guidance that Miss Mitchell prepared this first program of classic songs.
"It is a meagre phrase to use in describing the recital to say it was a success. From the artistic point of view, it was, without question, an outstanding event. The years that have passed have served but to ripen and mature a great native talent, and although the hypercritical might say that there was absent a certain youthful verve and brilliance, in its stead was given an intensity of delineation and a purity of tonal utterance that more than compensated."
She appeared in Washington, D.C., October 3rd.

As we go to press, two orchestras have been named for the occasion, and with such entertainment in store for the public none but the best can qualify. You may-expect Jazz! Jazz! Jazz!

Cops Exonerated
For Killing Man
Patrolman William Earles and fireman John, white, both of the third district, were exonerated by Coroner's Knight of any responsibility. In connection with the death of an unidentified man who was shot and killed on the morning of September 17, after it is alleged with another man he attempted to walk into a Pennsylvania Railroad freight train on Delaware avenue near South street.
At the inquest it was testified that a railroad detective discovered two men trying to force open the door on the train that the Third district. A squad of policemen rushed to the scene. In the chase which ended a score of shots were fired and one of the fugitives was struck, but the other escaped. The wounded man died and the man later in the Pennsylvania Hospital.
Dr. William S. Wadsworth, the coroner's physician, testified that he was unable to determine which poison was in the bullet and what was the calibre of the bullet as it went through the dead man and the empty shell was not found. The coroner's jury returned a verdict that the gunshot wounds of the abdomen inflicted by an unknown policeman in performance of his duty.
Woman Gets 20 Years
Mary Williams, 53 Kendallwil street, where it totally stubbed Frank Baker, alias James Smith, at 11 a.m. on May 27 last, as a result of a drunken brawl, pleaded guilty to murder in the second degree before Judge Finkletter in the court of Oyer and Terminer. He imposed the maximum penalty of from 10 to 20 years in the Eastern Penitentiary. On hearing the sentence, the defendant collapsed and lay screening Her plea shilling started all in the adjoining offices and corridors.
Two Shot in Street Row
Two men are in the Children's Hospital, one with four bullets in his body and probably fatally wounded, as the result of a shooting at 9th and Oxford streets.
One of the men injured is Milton Swager, white, of Glenside, a bystander, who received a bullet wound in the right leg.
The shooting followed a quarrel between Chamberls, Hutchinson street, near Jefferson, and another man over a woman. Chamberls was shot four times.
The man who did the shooting escaped. The police have been unable to learn his identity.
Two Women Injured In Automobile Crash
Two women, Lella Barry, aged 21, and Lizzie Jones, aged 22, of Washington, D. C., were injured when the taxicab in which they were riding collided with the automobile of Louie White of Crosstreet, above Columbia avenue, a block from his home. The women were taken to the Northwest General Hospital suffering from bruises, while Miss Barry had also lost several teeth when she struck the front of the car. Four officers of the taxi, were arrested by the police of the Twenty-third District.
Dunbar Doings
Mr. John T. Gibson has some where, somehow, found that magic touchstone which is sought by all theatrical magnates— the lure which packs the eminent season in the fourth week and third attraction, the "S. R. O." sign has been hung out at each evening performance. People evidently acquired the Dunbar habit and Mr. Gibson and his valuable assistants— Jason and Charlie Erick—are going to try to make them keep on liking it.
The present week sees Harvey's Greater Minstrels on the boards. It

is a good, mappy show with ministralry modernised. The Creole chorus is a dream of fair women. Margaret Jackson, styled the modern Black Patt, is all of that. She shares the leading honors with roundtine Hilder, who is like rare wine, improving with age and gray hairs. A jazy band enlivens the whole.
Not since the days of Williams and Walker has such a talented and splendidly equipped company of colored entertainers as that contained the music and the massive scenic agendar in "Follow Me," the attraction which will open a two weeks' engagement at Gibson's New Dumbar commencing next Monday, evening. The chorus, both man and women, as well as the ability to sing or dance, with the happy result that to see them at work fills one with pleasurable admiration. They are at once the envy and pride of all colored choruses. The elaborate costumes and stage design, with any musical comedy on Broadway. There is an excellent cast of funmakers, headed by Billy Higgins and Cliff Ross, comedians par excellence; Ernest Whitman, the great tenor; Elvira Johnson, dabbing with Sylvia Mitchell and the perenially popular Sude Sutton.
Politicians Gather
A representative, group of men who are generally conceded to the group's political leaders motored to Atlantic City last Saturday and moved to Ridley. Following an elaborate "shore dinner" with all the trimming the various political problems of the day were discussed exhaustively. Long those who needed the call of Representative Andrew Stevens to participate were Edward W. Henry, Nathan Nutter, Dr. Charles A. Lewis, Isaac Mitchell, Harry Pickney, William Leónard, Charles Samuels, Robert Smith, William G. Lee, Attorney Tulner, Miles Johns, Robert W. Carter, Blake Ernest Wright, J. P. Carter and Howard Henry.
The Roadside Scores Again
---
For many years Philadelphia folks have, nursed the gentle fiction that they were not as other people, that they were hide-bound conservatives. "Old wine, old friends, old books," they shook themselves afternoon, they shook themselves of their conservative shells and journeyed to George Robinson's remodelled Roadside Hotel. There they congregated in such numbers that only a fraction of those who came to hear and to eat were able to enter. The form of New York entertainers had been added to the regular features and they took the guests by storm. Blase "O. P.'s" said they had never heard anything like it! And to enhance the evening's gaiety impromptu performances of the "Liza" Company and by 2 Soap Box minstrels herded through the jam by G. Grant Gilmore.

Love Triangle Ends In Murder Of Young Wife
Desperate Lover Shoots
Woman Who Refuses to
Desert Her Husband
for Him
POLICE SEEK SLAYER
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. Oct. 14.
All Germantown was stirred on
Wednesday morning when Julius
Brown, a lodger at 119 W. Price
street, shot and killed Mrs. M.
Margaret Henderson, of the same
address, because the woman refused to
desert her husband and run away
with him. After the shooting, Brown
walked calmly away from the scene
of the crime.
Mrs. Henderson and her husband, Charles Henderson, had been living in the Price street house since February. Brown came there as a lodger in March and since that time he has been posing as a dear friend of Charles Henderson, the dead woman's husband. Burning within him, however, was the passionate desire for Henderson's attractive wife. Just what advances he made to her prior to the act of Wednesday morning are not known, but on Tuesday evening he drew down his pay at the steel mills, where he was employed, on the plea that he had some important business to attend.
On Wednesday morning he did not go to work. Instead he came down stairs and lofted about until Mrs. Henderson, who works out by the day, was preparing to leave the house. It was then that Brown began to urge that she leave home and child and run off with him. The woman refused.
Miss Ethel Thornton, another lodger in the house, witnessed the shooting. She says that when the woman refused to comply with Brown's demands he became insistent. Mrs. Henderson then started towards the door in an effort to escape him and at the same moment the man reached for his weapon. Miss Thornton, sensing the grave danger, flung herself upon him in an effort to prevent the tragedy, but he jerked her right arm free, and fired just as the womb would have let her side door which would have let her out into the back of her head. She staggered, turned around and lurched the man. Another shot stopped her and she fell face downward on the floor.
The slayer then put his weapon back in his pocket, glanced threateningly at Ethel Thornton, who was kneeling beside the dead woman, and then whaked deliberately out of the house, shutting the door behind him.
Miss Thornton notified the police at once. The body of Mrs. Henderson was rushed to the Germantown Hospital, where she was pronounced dead. She was then taken to the morgue.
Charles Henderson, when notified of his wife's death, came home dazed by the shock. Mrs. Henderson was taken to this city from Gwington, K.
Although police scoured the city and patrolled all avenues of escape, Brawn had not been captured up to a late hour today. He is thought to be hiding somewhere in the city.
ACTION OF VIRGINIA
SCHOOL IS CENSURED
(Continued From Page One)
For the school, headed by President S. V. Baker, and the city—immortalized itself here Saturday afternoon, when the southerners' attempt to have Washington and Jefferson place tradition above honor, and keep Charles West, a national figure, both because of his three-years' brilliant service on the Red and Black team and his sensational victory in the National Pentathlon at the Penn relays last year, fell through completely.
West, born; zeared and educated in this town, is the "idol" of the school, a credit to the game and an example of the highest type of manhood of the Negro race.
He has been an honor to the school, both as a student; where his ranking is among the highest, and as an athlete, adding to its prestige and dignity by his gentlemanly bearing, both on and off the field.
One of the most popular men in the entire town and known to everyone, West has not allowed his prowess to go to his head, and Washington and Lee is receiving nation-wide censure for their action, which not only reeks of poor sportsmanship, but calls to mind all the more vividly, racial handicaps throughout

many sections of the country.
Tradition of Honor?
Washington: and Lee refused, point blank, to play Washington and Jefferson today unless West was taken from the lineup. They gave as their reason that it was a "tradition" of the school that their teams had never competed against a Negro athlete. That their action had been planned in advance was evidenced by the fact that as soon as the team arrived here, a conference was held. The team won. Honor won. For following a long distance telephone call, President Baker called: the game off. In a statement to the press, President Baker said:
"I am sorry the unfortunate situation arose. I respect the tradition which Washington and Lee followed in refusing to play the game, but Wash-Jeff college is a northern school with traditions, too. It has never made any astute organization, but I am enrolling its students. Charles West, who was the cause of the controversy, has been one of the best students in the college for the last three years. He has been an honor to the school both as a student and as an athlete, adding to its prestige by his gentlemanly conduct and his efforts as an athlete. "S. V. BAKER, "President Washington and Jefferson College."
Entitle Town Prohibited.
When notice was received that the game had been called off, thousands of townpeople and visitors who had come here to witness the regime, were loud in their denunciation of the "crackers," which as "crackers," "yellow" and "bunch of quitters" were freely applied to them by theaters.
An automobile bearing a Virginia license and supposed to belong to some of the players, was generously decorated with eggs and other refuse.
It is rumored that one conductor on a local car refused to allow some of the players to ride the street car.
A number of students and townpeople, headed by the band paraded the downtown streets here in noisy protest and disapproval of W. & L.'s action.
Coach DeHart Speak
Coach Jimmy DeHart, of Washington & Lee, said he had no part in his school's action. A former star of Pitt University, he showed a gold watch, which had inscribed on it the names of four Pitt relay runners, who competed at Penn, and the name of Jim Burwell, the flashy colored runner of the Panthers, was one of the four.
W. & J.'s action is to be commended and the rebukes from the pens of sport writers all over the country are justified. Washington and Lee's action savors of highhandedness and un-Americanism, and no, true American will do aught but censure them.
CITIZENS ORDERED TO
LEAVE STOWE TOWNSHIP
(Continued From Page One)
September 7th, ordered all "Negroes who had not lived in Johnstown 7 years to leave" following a murder of two police officers by an identified Colored man. Mayor Caufield's edict was met with stern rebuke by the entire country, and Governor Pinchot ordered a rigid investigation, the result of which was the establishment of peace and the serving of notice to the Colored people that they need not leave Johnstown under such unlawful threats. Mayor Caufield gave the order as political propaganda, it was later learned, but he was defeated at the polls by a big majority.
Local authorities have promised to act promptly in case the "vigilance" committee attempts to molest the quiet Colored citizenry of Stowe township.
MISGUIDED LOVE CAUSED
DEATH OF GIRL, ALLEGED
Savage, after a. severe gruelling,
made a confession at three o'clock
Monday morning, admitting he killed
the girl. He said, according to
detectives, that he met the girl by
appointment and when she gave him
the envelope containing the money
which was in payment of the
"charm," he snatched it away from her.
According to detectives, he said,
when he found she had the envelope,
he:struck her in the face with his
closed flak and she fell against the small wall along the side of the carriage entrance. As she fell, Savage told the detectives, she screamed: "I'll give it to you," but he picked up a brick and threw it at her head. When the brick struck Miss Barthal, he said, she lay still and he then noticed the stone which weighed 70 pounds lying on the wall around the carriage en-

Communicated by Col. C. A·Dickson Prince Hall Masonic Association will hold their annual ball on October 18, Tyre Lodge No. 46, and St. John's Lodge No. 16 will each exemplify the work at their coming meetings; Tyre working in the Third and St. John's in the First. Bison Consistory No. 29 will initiate a large class on the 19th. Exercises will begin promptly at 2:00 o'clock. Noble O. C. Hall of Hadji Temple No. 61 having been commissioned a colorel in the U. R. K. of P., and attached to 'the staff of major general, has resigned as captain of the patrol. Their instructor, Noble M. Spencer Carpenter, is the logical and most prominent noble that ought to be this successor. The D. O. K. O.'s will shortly institute the 'Ladies' temple.
We who are very skeptic about the welfare of some deceased person, especially from the spiritual side, I know will be pleased to note that our brother and friend, Robert Russell, died in the full triumph of faith. His last words to his wife and friends were "I am saved—tell the world." "I hear the sweet music, wife—meet me in heaven—I have been redeemed." While all the letters of condolence were exceptionally ggd, none were better than the one coming from North Side Lodge No. 124, and read by Rev. Mason, a member of North Side Lodge, and who is a credit to any secret organization.

Bishop A. J. Carey, Speaks for Chicago
If any one wishes to know the facts of the niggardy, ungrateful and traitorous actions of the man who refused to accept his charge at St. Mary A. M. E. Church in Chicago which paid a salary to deliver on that last bond, will ponder on these words of the most powerful voice on Chicago Southside and the rock of the African Methodist Episcopal Church in Chicago—Bishop A. J. Carey. "I brought Mr. Harvey from a fifteen hundred dollar charge toucky to St. Mary, Chicago, which I hung to remember a $5,000.00 year position. On the third ballot for the election of delegates to the General Conference in 1924 after seven delegates had been elected and only two more to be voted on, then Rev. Harvey arose in speed to the speech in the running for not understanding his compers failed to elect him as a delegate; whereupon he left the conference and aired his vain and baseless charges to the newspapers, breaking his sacred vows to foolishly play in the hands of unfriendly, insulting, and disrespectful men that we are rid of those who cannot keep faith for the church of God and the followers of Allen must be marching on."
It is only fair that the public should be apprised of the fact that Rev. Harvey was again appointed to St. Mary but felt it more spectacular to read the riot act, so he and a dozen others by actual count with hats in hand left the fold to fold streets of Chicago and to hold Sunday services in a school auditorium.
I have not only heard but I have seen another minister in Chicago who imagined himself a Methodist Episcopal Church. One year after his unceremonious exit in the same city of Chicago, we find the world famous Church Big Bethel re-christened as Greater Bethel on one of the great boulevards of the world, housed in a superstructive valued at $500,000 with a fully equipped gymnasium, with community and recreational advantages second to none in America.
Rev. C. M. Tanner, son of the late Bishop Tanner, who is pastor of this great church reported $2,001.00
Wine, Woman and Song Land Three People In Jail
PHILADELPHIA, Pa; Oct. 11.—There was wine, woman and song at 744 S. 11th street on Monday, but the song was a sad Blues and had to be sung before Magistrate O'Connor on Tuesday morning. Even here the song was given to forerunner Stokes and Johnnie Scott, both of the above named address, were held for court for fighting and the woman in the case was given 10 days in jail, after all three principals had told the magistrate the wildest sort of conflicting fairy tales.
The real trouble started when Peter Stokes and Johnnie Scott became intensely interested in a wandering lady who had consented to Stokes and Johnnie in the form of a fox and fox fused to conceive a point and as the spirits consumed during the discussion were of the moonshine variety, it was not long before the two men were fighting all over the room, while the lady had simply lost interest in the whole affair for the time. The coming of the police broke up the party before anybody got seriously hurt.
Man Commits Suicide

"Dollar" money to Bishop Levi Jenkins Coppin, head of the Fourth Episcopal District.
Rev. W. E. Stewart, pastor of the mother church-Quinn Chapel, paid off the last $10,000,000 mortgage and reported $1,400,000 "$Dollar" money in one year. The Chicago Conference alone reported for education, missionary and general church work nearly $100,000,000 for 1923. According to the fiscal report of Secretary John R. Hawkthis is one third of the entire year collected during the 1922. As far as M. E. Church in Chicago is concerned, men may come and men may go, but the followers of Allen will go on bigger and better every year.

INVESTIGATION SHOWS THAT ALL PROPERTIES BELONGING TO MR. RATHBLOTT ARE CLEAR OF ALL INCUMBRANCES One of the crowning features of the land which is being sold at Mizpah, is that it is absolutely free and clear of all encumbrances.
In order to verify and ascertain the correct status of the land, a number of prospective buyers employed Mr. Warner T. McGuinn, a reputable colored attorney, of Baltimore, to search the records and he found that the titles were guaranteed by the Guarantee Mortgage and Title Insurance Company, of Newark, N.J., and that high references were given by the People's Bank of Philadelphia of Mr. Rathblott's just dealings. Mr. McGuinn was also employed by these prospective buyers to ascertain the standing of Mr. Rathblott, and he found that Mr. Rathblott ranks among the leading business men of Philadelphia and that the property was clear of all encumbrances.

| Washington and Lee university signed a contract) to
play. ‘2 football contest with Washington and Jefferson cole
Joge at Washington, Pa. The contract was signed long ago,
‘and the date fixed at.the time the contract was-signed was
October 6, 1923. _ te :
‘ On the date fixed, the Southern team appeared in
“Washington, Pa., to play the contest as per contract—ex-
‘cept one thing, a great thing... The Negro member of the
‘Northern team had to’ be dismissed from the team’ before
the Southerners would perform their part of the contract.
‘They demanded that Charles West be banished from the
‘Washington and Jefferson team. “Tradition,’ithey déclared
forbade their participation in any contest against any
Negro. They plead “tradition” against the honor of ‘a con-
feet And they tried to thrust their prejudice upon the
le town of Washington by. keeping quiet on the Negro
question until the-very last moment. Washington rose to
the occasion,.and the serpent .of prejudice sneaked out of
Pennsylvania, followed by rotten eggs and fragments of
bricks, plus the anger and disgust of Washington.
The Southerners knew they had signed a contract. They
knew the Negro was a member, in excellent standing, of the
Northern team. They came to.Washington expecting to see
‘Washington surrender all her self respect to their diabolical
prejudices. They were a sad lot, as they went back to their
«(president and reported: “Mr. Prejudice, Washington has a
‘tradition, too.” .
Washington is the home of Charles West. He.was born
“there; he grew to manhood there; he has been educated
there, from the lowest grades tothe senior class of Wash-
ington‘and Jefferson. To have withdrawn West from the
team to satisfy Southern “tradition” would have discounted
all Washington, its schools, its morals, its refinement, its
nense of justice, its history, and its own Washington and
Jefferson. ‘This was the answeég-to Southern “tradition,” and
it was conclusive. : ; ne
Negroes all over the country are proud of Washington
and Jefferson’s Democratic President. “He stood on the same
foundation on which this country is supposed to have been
founded. So often, men are afraid to be just—afraid of tra-
dition. There are a few men left to save the ideals of the
forefathers of this land. We must hold their hands aloft
forever. .
‘And, too, Negroes, all over this country are proud of
“Charles West. He is a gentleman, a student, an athlete, and
" a citizen of his town. He has reflected credit upon his town
. his family, his fellow citizens, ;his college, his community
* Upon him -did President Baker predict, every word he sait
to the Southerners. It was West who had lived up. to ever
tradition known to Washington, and all Washington stand:
on that tradition. 8
Necro Servanis As Witnesses
EGROES all over the country ought to tearn & Vain
N Yesson from the Stokes case, now in progress in New
»New York City. Mr. Stokes is trying to establish cer-
tain facts out of the mouths of certain witnesses. He has
used a colored maid as one witness to establish that Mrs.
Stokes visited a gentleman’s apartment on certain occasions.
We do riot know what will be established in the Stokes
ease, and-we are not interested. We are interested in the
impressions our people make, in and“out of courts. It is to
be expected that the testimony. of ‘the colored maid will be)
met by the testimony of some white witness. We know how
easy it is to impeach a Negro witness by producing opposite
testimony from the lips of white witnesses. It is not a matter
of justice, but a matter of history that white people lay
Very little stress upon the credibility of Negro servants as
witnesses. % €
Indeed, the South places. little or no. value upon the
testimony of any Negro witness, and especially servants.
This is why the South emplpys Negro servants: Almost
any indiscretions may be committed by whites in the
presence of their Negro servants, and there is not the slight-
est fear that the indiscretions. will become known. If the
servants tell what they saw, no one will believe the story. If
the servants ever become court witnesses, the-testimony of
one white person impeaches anything any Negro servant can
asay. This lack of credibility is the practice among whites.
-If it were different, their very lives might be in danger under
certain circumstances. The servant is entrusted with sec-
rets, with“life, with property, with damaging facts at first
hand, with the knowledge that his exposures would amount
to naught, evén in court. i
. * This stigma can never be removed as long as servants
allow themselves to ‘become witnesses in cases where con-
- fidences have to be violated. There is something mean in
violating confidences and while|the whole truth may. often
be told, the violation of confidences is looked upon as
“squealing,” ‘and squealing is the lowest kind of practice
known to-man. .
. _ We do ourselves very. little good, and perhaps a great
deal of harm, when we offer ourselves as witnesses in cases
where our testimony, though as truthful as the gods them-
selves, is promptly impeached by the words'of others whose
credibility enjoys.a higher degree of, confidence than ours.
The better practice is to have ears that hear not, and
eyes that see not, and a tongue which is perfectly bridled at
all times. Better not to remember at all than 'to remember
correctly and be impeached before the world as a liar.
/ *The-Fatare East'Liberty *
N. PITTSBURGH, East Liberty means something. -To the
I man outside, the name has-no significance. Tnva few years
| the name will mean a great deal more than it does today.
The most casual: observer .must be impressed. with. the
gradual development of the Bast, End section of Fittsburgh.
Large business is taking: hold out here, and there has. de-
veloped: quite a bid for every. kind of: business to settle in
that section. . Of course it is not contended’ that the East
End section will displace the “down town” portion of the
city, but it may well be. urged that’ East End is the “coming
part of the town.” igtes
This ‘statement is baséd-upon the amount-of capital in-
vested, the kind. of industries one’ sees in the East End, and
the ‘type of business men who have ‘taken hold of the de-
velopment of the section, There is a distinct and almost
separate market to be found in East Liberty. The banks‘are
operating almost. entirely’ on local business and local in-
vestments. As the section enlarges, every activity will grow
and develop. Ten years from this date will bring great
shanges im.the whole section. aos
The Pittsburgh Negroes: who live’in East End, or. in
Homewood and. Wilkinsburg, had better, sieze-present op:
portunities and take hold‘ of business with a new grip. In a
short time the population will be twice what it is today, and
business will bé,making new demands. The wise ones whe
sée the possibilities ‘are makiig ready for the days now rap:
idly approaching: The banking interests are getting ready
to take care of the- investments soon to be made out there
‘The more powerful the banks, the more rapidly will busi.
ness develop. The time to get a firm hold on.the. growing
enterprises of the district is right now. Get the banks open.
get money in them, and’ get started’ before the district. be
comes crowded.
Keen Howard in Front
ERHAPS little is said of the subject in Washington, Dut
P in other cities we are treated to a veritable attack upon
certain conditions which prevail at Howard ‘university.
There is little reason for the attack,’ but its verility is very
pronounced: We refer to the question of a larger number
of race representatives on the. medical school faculty.
It is generally accepted now that Howard has a medical
school which not only equals any in the country, but stands
among the very foremost in the United States. Howard has
a reputation which speaks quite as loud as its many friends.
lt is known that Howard does not graduate large classes.
Indeed, it has been said that a very small percentage of each
class is crowned with. the coveted M. D. .
Perhaps Howard is too “hard” for many of those who
clamor for a larger number of Negro members on the medical
staff. We have some knowledge. of the medical staff, and if
Howard’s medical school is to be designated “hard” because
of the presence of certain professors, then Howard should
remain hard, and thereby remain the Howard she has been
for these many years.
Few schools have such men as Dr. Lamb. And while
he.is not:now at Howard, his absence is said to-be'due to
certain.clamors.for. « Negro. professor to fill.the chet held
by him. This is the very man who developed one of6ur. own
men into-a competent eye specialist only to see Negroes re-
fuse to patronize him. ‘It is said that Dr. Lamb decided to
eliminate Negro patients entirely in order to make it possible
for a Negro specialist to demonstrate his ability. Then, there
are other men like Dr. Parker, ‘Dr. Fowler, Dr:.Reid, whose
names mean so much in medicine. These men have kept
‘Howard in the very front in medicine, and their equals are
not to be found idling around the country. ee
- . Medicine is developing rapidly, But students are re-
sponsible for this rapid development. We have but a few
real medical students among. our group. By a few, we mean
just that. The average Negro physician is busy making
money, and the science of medicine is left to other heads and
hands. Until we develop wealth enough to enable some of
our men to devote their whole time to research in medicine,
we had better delight in the fact that Howard has the best
men available, and our bays may sit at their feet and get the
best instruction known to the profession.
When.Winter Comes ~
\HE rapidly retarding Sun is leaving his warning as he
T setives to his Winter quarters. His long shadows, and
his cooling rays tell us that soon we shall be.face to
face with King Blizzard who knows no favorites.
Preparation for winter season, ught to be miade with
some method and regularity. There is a certainty about the
return of winter which our people fail to appreciate. Just
as surely as we see the leaves fall, just so surely will snow
fall, and snow means winter, cold, freezing, suffering.
To the man who loves comfort, to the man whose little
ones look to him for every supply for every returning want,
to the husbandman who weathers every season alike, we
extend the simple admonition: Winter is coming!

A Tust Decree %
President Baker, of Washington and Jefferson, took a
course unassailable on the grounds of justice when he de-
creed that the institution would not bow to the prejudice: of
Virginia visitors and ‘remove from the football team a Negro
Player eligible under intercollegiate rules. Tt was a decision
such asthe young Southerners merited, though it prevented
the football game scheduled at Washington‘ on Saturday.
The player in question has been-on the Washington-and
Jefferson team for three years and in that time has met with
no discrimination. His record is that of an athelete of.high
class and he has been regarded as one of the stars of the
Washington and Jefferson aggregation. He appears to have
won his standing regardless of his race and is entitled to the
greater credit. To have set him aside at the behest of the
Southerners.would have been an outrage., -
It has been no:secret that a Negro was a Washington
and Jefferson player. Why then Washington and Lee ever
signed a contract for an intercollegiate’ game is a mystery,
if they ‘did not intend to play ‘with the offending member.
If they thought they could bluff their opponents they now
know their error.and it has cost them dearly. .And the in-
stitution which would not yield to a prejudice has done itself
honor. . It is the business of a ‘Scllegs to broaden mind and

qualities, though they may have, or not have, either or both.
It'is certain the young Washington and Jefferson Negro was
selected because he could fill a position better than. anyone
else available and as‘suck he seems to have fulfilled expecta-
tions. He, then,'is entitled to just treatment, the more so be-
cause of the existing prejudice against his race. Far better
that Northern colleges have no relations with the South
than that they be unjust.e % ee
