Shaw begged, or perhaps rewarded, his hospitality by writing a series of satirical articles of the leading citizens and officials in Jamaica. This literary serial only increased the governer's popularity. That public concern raised on his theory of social equality of the Black and white races expressed in a reconstitute book, 'White Capital and Colored Liberty', which first appeared in the socialist literary series called by his close friend and associate, Ramsey MacDonald. He soiled at Bayard Kipling's theory of the white man's burden and its as-simulation of Caucasian superiority. In Jamaica he allowed the black man to take up the white man's burden whenever he was intellectually qualified. In his book he gave striking proof of the success of his appointment. In it this trait gives so much importance to his appointment as secretary of state for India.

Frazier, Appointed in 1895—Graduated in 1888—Forced Appointment. BY LESTER A. WALTON (In The New York World) The death of Miss S. Elizabeth Frazier. No. 506 Macon street, Brooklyn marks the passing of one known as "the first colored woman to teach in the mixed public schools of New York." Old residents of Manhattan and Brooklyn recall the furore created thirty-odd years ago when Miss Frazier broke all precedents by going into a schoolroom to teach white children. Prior to the consolidation of the boroughs into the greater city separate schools were maintained. Negro teachers were appointed to colored schools only. With the advent of mixed schools separate schools were abolished. Having been graduated from Normal College in 1888, Miss Frazier was eligible for an appointment in one of the mixed schools. Prof. Henry Kiddie was superintendent of education. As her appointment was deferred from time to time the applicant brought a writ of mandamus in the supreme court to compel Supt. Kiddie to assign her to one of the local schools. Although the court ruled adversely, holding that Miss Frazier was not being denied the right to teach because of race or color, she was subsequently appointed in 1895. Scores Teaching Now. Today scores of Negroes are teaching white children in the New York public schools. Up to 1922 a Negro was principal of one of the schools with an exclusive white enrollment. He voluntarily retired. Miss Frazier was born in New York in 1863. Throughout her career as a teacher she made an enduring record for her starring and punk. Shortly after the World war she was one of the New York teachers given a trip to the battlefields of France by an evening newspaper. During the war she organized the Woman's Auxiliary of the 360th Infantry (the old 10th Regiment) and hold the presbytery up to her death. The organization rendered to the wives and relatives of the soldiers valuable assistance. Last Tuesday, at the 10th Regiment Armory, in Harlem, services were held in Miss Frazer's honor, at which Col. Arthur Little of the new regiment and Colonel William Hayward of the old spoke. Music was furnished by the regimental band. Services were held the following day from St. Philip's Protestant Episcopal Church, 14th street, near Seventh avenue, the Rev. Huebels-C. Bishop officiating. Burial was made in Mount Vernon Cemetery.

I was 42. I was almost an inva- lence from trouble. I was in my early thirties, but felt and looked like an old woman. I never would have been so happy and I loved for any one to talk to me, for I was in pain all the time. I was so happy that the doctor came to me. I was just like a lot of other women. I knew what was wrong with him, but I didn't know what to do. One day the mail man brought in a letter that contained a message from you and a little book which I didn't know what to do. After reading it through I decided to give the mail man a trial. The action of this wonderful woman is to improve from the first do- dle, and I hope improving until today I am a well, strong, active woman, and feel good.

BIGAMIST FINDS WIFE, HAS HUBBY Peculiar Twist in Marital Tangle Disclosed When Child Calls Woman "Mamma." NEW YORK, Feb. 14—An interesting twist in the eternal triangle, or triangles, developed last week when the two alleged wives of Jesse Scott, 48 West 132nd street, appeared before Magistrate McKiniry to press a charge of bigamy against him. It appears that in 1918 Scott married Evelyn Trent, who, it is alleged, had a husband, from whom she was not divorced. With her when she went to live with Scott was a child by her former husband. This child, it is said, she had trained not to call her mother but it "slipped up" one day and addressed her as "mamma," in the presence of Scott, who became suspicious and questioned his "wife," when it is said, she admitted that she was alright married to her. He then left to take another plunge into matrimony, selecting Genevieve King. She, it is alleged, also had a husband from whom she was not divorced. A month ago the two women met, and attracted by possession of the same surname, began to compare notes, with the result that Scott was hailed into court and held in $3,500 bail. At the barring, Attorney Frank W. Stanton appeared for Scott, and with the above-mentioned facts, proved that his client had not committed bigamy, since neither marriage had been legal. The real bigamists, he declared, were the two women. It developed that since Scott had left twiife No. 1. her husband had died, but Attorney Stanton contended that that would still not make her marriage legal, since it had been illegally contracted. When Magistrate McKiniry discharged the defendant, both women created a burst of laughter by chiming together: "Your honor, what I want to know is am I married or ain't I" Scott says he is going to hire Sherlock Homes to investigate future wives. "It would have surprised me more if he had married her, knowing her as she really is."

MADE ONLY BY THE OVERTON HYGIENIC MFG.CO CHICAGO THE PITTSBURGH COURIER Mrs. Bennett Tells Club Women's Needs For 1924 CHE STER, Pn. Feb. 14. — In a message more than 10,000 club women third, he outlived the state, Mrs. Ruth L. Benner, president of the Pennsylvania Federation of Women's clubs, declare that the organization is at the "d" staging of its usefulness. In citing the needs of the Federation Mrs. Bennernett said: "We need a greater and stronger organization by the bishop, ringing together of women who could not be reached any other way than through district organizations; also a substantial and workable plan for the departments. Much of the depends upon the it-Of-Town Society CHICAGO, Ill., Feb. 12. The second annual fashion show will be held this year, March 4, at the Eighth Regiment Armory. The proceeds will go toward the building fund of the Young Women's Christian association, of which Mrs. Lulu Lawson is the executive secretary. At a recent meeting of the educational committee, under whose auspices the show is given, Mrs. Cary B. Lewis was chosen as chairman of the committee and, Mrs. Helen Thorne, chairman of publicity. Mrs. George Cleveland had acted as chairman last year, which netted the $1.4 million. This year the fashion show is expected to be bigger and better. Beautiful Models This Year This year, according to Mrs. Lewis, the models will be perfectly beautiful. A number of the season's debutantes will participate and all of the models who took part last year. The chairman, speaking to a representative of the COURRIER said: "I have something in store for the people of Chicago this year. I am not at liberty to give it out just at present, waiting for an opportunity time so that the surprise will be an advantage to us from a publicity viewpoint. Mrs. Thorne will release the story to all the newspapers." Spotlight and Dance Following the fashion show which will include a display of children's wearing apparel, morning and evening gowns, also afternoon gowns and furs. Last year the styles and clothes worn by the models were a complete surprise to Chicago society but this year there is expected to be a revelation along this line. A number of big stores in the "loop" have consented to send models. Following the show there will be a dance and all of Chicago is expected to be present wearing their advance Easter apparel. Charitable Work Needed The giving of the fashion show is one of the most needed public affairs of the "Windy City." It is for "sweet charity." The girls have a small home at Sixty-six and Indiana, where there is no opportunity for the housing or training of young women to any extent. They want a new home—this is one of the big means by which they can secure funds to make a creditable showing with the general W. W. C. A. building committee. The slager in Chicago now is "Papa goes where Ma goes and Ma, is going to the Fashion Show." LOS ANGELES, CAL. By Emma L.

"Grad Prom" The winter scholastic term expired in a blaze of glory, The Ritz Klub "Mid Year Grad Prom" being the climax of the scholastic season. The "Prom" which took place at Labor Lyceum. Friday evening. February 5, promises to become an annual institution. The main purpose of the Ritz Klub, which is composed of students and graduates, in holding the "Grad Prom," is to inspire in the youth the enthusiasm to get a high school education. The auditorium was fittingly beckoned for the occasion, with the school colors and pennants flaunting in the air. The walls were decorated with bouquets of blue and yellow chrysanthemums. Interspersed among the school pennants were the pennants of the club, a beautiful combination of blue and gold. The climax of the affair was reached when the "Grade" were presented to the diplomas. After the diplomas were presented each "Grad" received a very beautiful favor, "Kewpie dolls" and bunnies, seemed to be cuddled up in the arms of the fair ones very tenderly. William Bands, a coming star, rendered the prologue which was very pleasing. The graduates who were unable to attend will receive their diplomas during the coming week. Owing to the recent bereavement in Attorney Frank R. Stewart's family he was unable to present the "gratis," however, the president, Mr. Carl Davis, took his place most commendably.

The Sportive Realm (Prospective and Retrospective) | Frank Young of the Chicago Defender is to he complimented for the vigorous and telling manner in which he acsails the bespectacled Ed Smith of the Chicago American for his uncalled. for attack on colored athlete~ and the colored sporting fraternity. Mr. Young's defense of the colored man in sport is constructive, intelligent and convincing, and he is to be congratulated for his alertness insnot allowing Sniith or any ane el-e who is in position to mold public opinion to’get away with anything azainst “the brother" that is not just exactly on the up and up. We had an example right here in Pennsylvania just a few weeh~ azo of what we might expect from a buneh of second class white men rho by virtue of their positions, have a chance to rent all of their prejudiced spleen upon the victims of their narrow-mindedness. We speak of the effort of Boyle of The Pittshurgh Chronicle Telegraph and Rocap of The Philadelphia Public Ledger, in their efforts to bar mixed bouts in this state. To show they were little fish, when their projudiced effort was discarded by Governor Pinchot, through his attorney general. one would think that having been so’ sternly rebuked. would hare resigned. But no, they weren't that hie. Again we say that Mr, Young deserves a compliment for at least call- ing the bluff of Ed Smith or ang other sport writer who thinks he is xet- ting away with something. Men like Grantland Rice, W. 0. MeGeghan, Jimmy Long, Regis Welsh, George 1%. Underwood and their like in the sport writing game are hix because the very virtue of their calling appeals to the finer sense of man- hood in their makeup and instead of heing narrow they appear to broaden and become more magnanimous in the spirit of fairness.

Feb. 14—Jack Johnson, former heavyweight champion of the world, who was in the city last week, gave one of the greatest boxing exhibitions of any kind ever seen in the city. Although harred from public exhibition, and from being in the corps of Jack Ward, he protege, he was not denied his little private workout at the Beavers Club. After the chap's understudy weighted in at the Ohio hotel turkish porters, both of them went to the Beavers gym where Dil Ajran had a chance to loosen his impressive muscles. the old boy looked every inch a champion. He was supple, fast and clever as ever. He started out with punching the bag. The bag, however, was not equal to the task, and after the mascot landed a few swings on it he can still into a grenade broken from the swivel. After breaking the punching bag from its mooring, Johnson took a paw of iron himbells and went through a number of exercises and after working up a little sweet, did bounce cheeky shadow bouncing with the himbells in his hands. For fully fifteen minutes, Johnson pantamized. He swung, ducked, looked, jubbed and fainted his imaginary opener. ```markdown ``` ChanceUnder ing Commission take a second touch near to take a pouch and a valuable amount of skill any person may be allowed to New York fails to pay like in action with the thing body weight upon the hand-fitting routine the Argentine It may Negro No Big Deals Pulled Off By Magnates Nashville and Memphis Turned Affiliated Membership Wheeling Learn Loses Wile To Get New Boxing Back.

THE PITTSBURGH COURIER Eastern S Eastern Snapshots By W. Rollo Wilson They think a lot of Charles Fred White up Scranton way. He made an official visit up there and during the day was the guest of Sheriff Jim Rip at the dinner given the sheriff of the state at the Hotel Casey. In the evening he was the guest of Eddie Burke at the Town Hall A. C. He was introduced to the fight bugs and made a big hit in a brief speech. The Scranton "Dispatch" commented at length on the fine impression he made in that city. Donnie Butler who directs the coordinates of the Hotel Tucker sports park, was in Pillly last week on a business trip. He declared that he was over here counting the Panthers for the Commonwealth club. The two teams clash later in the month. The fact that John Hennery is bringing an alligator back from Cuba with him to act as mascot and bat-hoy for the Atlantic City Bacharach is arousing a good bit of interest here in the East. A specially prepared tank is being built for him and it will be mounted on a fluffer chassis. A standing order has been tilled with the various steamship companies for a barrel of Cuban water to be delivered on each trip. This will be used to replenish the water in the tank. And now to the Ontario Athletics have a new timing when means of mixed bouts are banned by the commission. Dixie Kid, the midfielder, was married to meet Jack Redick of Moore Jaw. Mrs. Edward Henry has declined, with thanks, the position as inspector offered him by the State Athletic Commission through the recommendation of Charles Fred White. The position is one of great honor even though it is more or less honorary. Some prominent newspapermen and others throughout the state have accepted the appointments and have pledged themselves to try to put boxing on the high plane it deserves. As we gallop to press the dear public is still awaiting Tom Gibbons reply to a $10,000 offer for a fight in Philadelphia with George Goffrey, heir presumptive to the heavyweight crown. Jack Hamilton, equally as assertive as he has received no mail at all. An open question to Robert, the Douglass, manager of "Big Ri" Will you please tell the world, through Snap-hots, if you or any of your players authorized the statement in last week's Amsterdam News that the men had been intentionally ronghed and crippled in the Loendi game in Pittsburgh and that the fans had caused any "rough-house?" Will you tell the world if you were coerced into arranging games with Loendi? With several knockouts to the credit in their tenure and millions Bertinic $555 with the location over Joe White of Alabama in Rockefeller took Scott Welger in 177 and White took the beat in 197. An athletic exhibition, details of which will appear in our new columns, staged by Baron James Dougherty of Leiperville, will shortly be staged for the benefit of the nurses' home of the Douglass Hospital, Philadelphia. By our faith, this boy Simms who plays a guard for Temple University and jumps center for the Kappa Gamma of Quakertown, is a gem of players may serve. He knows the game and can talk to a basketball in four different languages. He held Wheatland even in points scored in the interfraternity game last week. He did Dash in field goals with four. He did everything as it should be done. Arlenez Dash, D. D. S., yielded to the lure of the cage and journeyed to Philadelphia to play "just one more game." After the fracas he called that while he did not love basketball less he loves dentistry more. There is one man who will be glad when that Cuban season is over and that is "Nip" Winters, Hildale's prima donna. Senior Jim is out of his element down there. A win is just as familiar to him as an ice-berg is to the equator. The other day he gave Havana four hits and lost 5-2. Three bases on balls and two wild pitches didn't help him a bit. We know Dick Lundy is just tickled pink to be with a team which has lost six straight games. Havana is in the lead with five and one. Santa Clara has a 1-2-667 record. The league heads had better meet again and let Almendra trail Mariano into obliteration. Then, like Franklin and Oil City, they could have a two-town league. Snapshots The Hairspray Lineup looks very strong on paint with Jordan and a western touch, including Joe Hammond, Bradham pleasing, Williams, shortstop; Westbrook, baser; Claude Johnson, ground baller; The only trouble with the lineup is on the field. Sesley is with both Hammond and Bradham and Williams have already signed contracts with Hammond. Jim McCarthy, the State manager, tells a good story on "Judy" Gans, the present Lincoln Gym manager. The story concerns a scorn on Judy Lee, Mr. Nixon, a kicker and a long Henry-stered Gray will play their first Saturday game for Boerfield Field June 7. Mr. Bachman, the advertising manager for "Second Top Floor" was named Boerfield's hoo hoo when he announced the impending series between Coffee Club and Morrys as the "championship series." Mr. Garfield, Mr. Malone and companies are going to have hard-imposed days of daytime savings, but they should be able to go over the cut.

Sanhedrin Shapes Race Policy many of purpose its chief aim will have been accomplished. It is more essential that the race should act in uniform than that it should act in any given direction. The Negro Sanhedrin is an influence rather than an organization. Principles must be held down and programs outlined. The plans must be constructive, promedial, ameliorative and inspirational. The resulting type of agency which is to put into effective operation the things agreed on must be the outcome of the conference itself. Its sessions will probably be criminal. It is not without significance that the Sanhedrin is to be held during the week covering the birthdays of Frederick Douglass and Abraham Lincoln. The appointment of fifteen important commissions by Chairman Kelly Miller marked the big step in the program of the Sanhedrin. "The work of the conference will be done through committees," Dean Miller announced. "The findings or results of the Sanhedrin will be in the hands of a commission on permanent results," he said. Members of Commission. The Commission of Permanent Results includes the following: Dean Kelly Miller, chairman; Jas Welden Johnson, C. H. Tobias, Dr. Geo. E. Haynes, T. Arnold Hill, Rev.

The commissions are led by leaders interested in the particular work to be done. Tuesday Discussions. The Tuesday sessions were live and interesting. "The Basic Importance of the Physical Stamina of the Race," was discussed by Dr. As-Willforce Williams, of Chicago. Dr. Williams advocated a program of information for the guidance of the along health lines, Dr. Rossfeld, of Atlanta, Georgia, declared there wasn't any question about the Negro death rate being higher than that of the whites. Dr. H. Reginald Smith of Chicago, spoke of the necogeneity of encouraging youths to study and train as physicians' dentists and nurses. Dr. Channing Towers, in Fort Whidman and Dr Alice McKinney of Edison, took part in the discussion. In the afternoon an educational program brought more thought and serious discussion. Professor Gilbert H. Jones of Willow Forest, Ohio, disigned "The Power of Education" and Roy R. C. Woods, president of Virginia Seminary, Richmond, and Professor Arthur T. Long, of New York in School, Trenton, N. J., gave a substantial proposed program of education. Chicagouas Greet Delegates. Tuesday night an unusually large gathering of Chicagouas greeted the delegates in a meeting in the auditorium of Wendell Phillips High School. Mayor William A. Peverell delivered the address of welcome. Attorney Robert L. Vann presided over the press program which followed. Robert S. Aldrich of the Chicago Defender, Claude A. Barnett of the Associated Negro Press, made telling addresses. Mr. Vann will address.

Wednesday's and Thursday's meetings were spicy with long conversations and discussions on race welfare, religion, inter-racial co-operation and woman's part in the race problem. Rev. L. K. Williams, of the National Baptist convention; Charles A. Cotterill, of Ohio; K. R. L. Bradby, of Detroit; James Weldon Johnson, of New York; Mrs. Elizabeth Lindsay Davis, of Chicago, and Mrs. Estelle Davis, of Chicago, were among the snakebites. Friday the big Sanhedrin will close. The last day will not end the conference, is conceded as the general opinion. The work of the big meeting will have just begun. All commission, will report on Friday night, and the program to be announced by the Commission on Permanent Results is the subject of much debate and probably just what plan will be mapped out is not known, although it is generally hoped to be applied and carried out in every section of the country. A reception to the delegates was held in the Vineennes Hotel Monday evening. The following persons registered their presence at the Sanhedrin: Robert L.

Just a few weeks ago the alarming symptoms of her illness told a close friend, her recovery was too soon, yet in prayerful hope they wanted, and only when the news of the end came did they relinquish hope. Like a true soldier to duty, she was stricken while touring the state in the interest of the Women's Christian Temperance Union, and when pneumonia and the ravages of brain fever had robbed her of every ounce of strength, she gave up. Proud, courageous, she fought grumely, but it was her's to lose. To the door of the stricken home ported a stream of flowers that banked and overflowed every space with tender beauty. The names of influential as well as humble and loyal friends were on these tributes. They bespoke the coven in which she was held; they told an undeniable story of service to humanity; they tilled the room with fragrance, suggesting love, strength of character and friendliness. Nearly and in small groups friends came to look upon her face. Women and men with whom she had labored, comrades with whom she had played in childhood, women, friends, humble friends, true friends, all. Simple Services. Saint Mary marked the funeral service from her residence in Gettysburg, in midafternoon. Rev. R. W. W. Thomas, of the Warren W. W. St. Episcopal Church, Pittsbury, Pa., of which the deceased was a devoted member, read the funeral service, with fitting solemnity and tribute lyrics were sung, Mrs. David L. Bennett, of Chester, Pat. Mrs. Tom Schwing, Mrs. France Hilly Billing and Mrs. Sasha McDonald, of Pittsburgh, were present. Confidences were read in the W. C. T. U., the Frances B. W. W. Episcopal League, the Pennsylvania State Federation, the National Association of Colored Women, the nation's president, Miss Hallie Q. Browne, the City-County Federation of All Georgia county, noted individuals and national organizations. Enviate Career The life of Laura A. Brown was no exception in it was beneficial, the town in the church, where her sweet name gained her recognition. Then club life commanded her interest, and she went into it with energy, helping, here, building, building, over starting down. It is significant of her character that whenever she did not agree with a plan, she would not abuse and lash its proprietors, and in this wise she mated more kindness than was often stated on her. Her membership in the Pennsylvania Federation of Colored Women's Clubs was marked by earnest devotion to its high ideals and principles. Here she demonstrated a strict adherence to religious principles, she would not amenate ranks for experience. She became vice president of the body. --- A. B. in 1913, and held the office until she refused to run for re-election in 1921 at the annual convention in Reading, Pa. Her work in the state clubs attracted national attention, and in 1919 the late Mary B. Talbert, then president of the National Association of Colored Women, appointed her director of Pennsylvania in the drive for funds for the restoration of the Douglass Memorial Home at Alcoastia. Through her splendid efforts in this movement she was appointed to the Advisory Board of the home in 1920, and reappointed in 1922. During the late World War she was in charge of the War Savings Stamp campaign among her group and raised thousands of dollars for the relief of the soldiers in camp and in France. In Harding's campaign for the Presidency, Mrs. Brown was appointed a member of the Executive Board of the Republican Women's Committee of Allegheny County under the chairmanship of Mrs. Leonard Wood. She was reappointed each year since and held the position at the time of her death. As organizer of the Women's Christian Temperance Union in Pennsylvania she seemed to have found her happiest work. She gained religious fervor by studious application to the Bible, and carried its message of truth and love into every company she addressed. She travelled the length and breadth of the state urging white ribbon pledges to the cause of temperance. It was during her W. C. T. U. work in the spring of 1822, she announced her candidacy for the legislature, First district, Allegheny county. Her tenuity and earnest, serious purpose attracted attention through the state and in her district, stunchn friends gave her support. She was the first colored woman in the county to run for the legislature. The campaign against her was too vigorous, and she was defeated. She regarded her defeat as a "victory." "God gave me strength to withstand the criticism and rebuffs of the people with whom I lived more than twenty years. His religion has kept my heart sweet; my victory is in the knowledge that He has made it so," she wrote a friend. At the end of her political campaign, she plunged into the work of the W. C. T. U. with greater enthusiasm, attending conventions and receiving various honors for constancy and indisfatigable effort. At a district meeting of the Union last year, she was decorated with the meritorious gold ribbon. She was a member of the Warren M. E. Church, Center avenue, Pittsburgh, affiliated with the Army and Navy Union of America; Frances E. W.

The boy continued to wave the lantenor vigorously, thought for one moment that his act was to be in vain, but then noticed the locomotive gradually shackening its speed and coming to a halt a few feet away from the fatal rail. The engineer and fireman quickly got out and ran to the spot where the boy was standing, saw in a glance what the trouble was, had the rail quickly repaired, and saw to it that the names of the heroes were immediately reported to Pennsylvania Railroad officials, and an appreciation of their act sent them. The delay was so brief that none of the ass'agers were aware of what had happened and as a result did not know that they eveld their lives to a colored boy until they read a) *it in the evening papers.* URGES THAT TROOPS BE WITHDRAWN FROM HAITE such military or marital law and the liability of Haitian citizens throughout the Republic, to trial before military tribunals of the United States, is undemocratic, unrepublican, and contrary to American ideal of the policies of Warren G. Haring, late president of the United States. It is said the man who were responsible for the Haiti regime were those in high positions, who with no sympathy for the ordinary citizens of the Republic, had a taint for power and the subjec tion of the masses for their main object. Their subsequent actions proved that methods of slavery were the means by which they sought to obtain their arms and desires. It is hoped that the Senate Committee on Military Affairs of which James W. Wadsworth, of New York is chairman, will specially report the resolution favorably, and that the end of militarism will be in sight. It is felt to be certain that President Coolidge will fix his signature when it reaches the White House. Woman, Aged 107, Dies TUMAO, GI., P.O.

WASHINGTON, D. C., Feb. 14. Taking up the study of the free Negro in the United States, the research department of the Association for the Study of Negro Life and History, directed by Dr. C. G. Woodson decided to make this statistical report as to the heads of families, their ownership of slaves and social relations with the whites. The aim was to facilitate the further study of this neglected group. Most of these people have been forgotten, for persons supposedly well informed in history are surprised to learn today that about 4 half million, almost one-seventh of the Negroes of this country were free prior to the enunciation in 1865. They can hardly believe that 4,500 of these were owners of slaves themselves in 1830, and in many cases controlled large plantations. The census records show that the majority of the Negro owners of slaves were such from the point of view of philanthropy. In many instances the husband purchased the wife or vice versa. The slaves belonging to such families were few compared with the large numbers found among the whites on the well-developed plantations. Slaves of Negro were in some cases the children of a free father who had purchased his wife. If he did not thereafter enancipate the mother, as so many such husbands failed to do, his own children were born as slaves and were thus reported by Sold Wife Some of these miscreants were accused of toil to liberate their wives in the city. They combined it with the crime, then on probation for a year, and if they did not fulfill their duties they would hold their wives or their husbands of Norfolk. For example, A. S. Watson the matriarch in Chuck C. Woodson, C. O. Conn completed his wife for $100, on finding her bed to please he did her a few months thereafter for $150, gaining $50 by the transaction. Dr. C. G. Woodson personally knew a man in Gumberland county, Virginia, whose mother was purchased by his father who had first bought himself. Becoming commanded of a male slave, she gave him his husband's manumission papers that they might escape together to free soil. Upon detecting this plot, the officers of the law got the impression that her husband had turned over the papers to the slave and arrested the freedman for the supposed offense. He had such difficulty in extricating himself from this complication that his attorney's force was limited to $000. To pay them he disposed of his faithless wife for Bristolers: Negroes often purchased slaves to make their lot easier by granting them their freedom for a criminal sum or by permitting them to work in out on liberal terms. John Barry Meacham, a Negro Baptist minister in St. Louis, thus came into possession of as many as 20 slaves by 1834. The exploitation type of Negro slaveholder, moreover, sometimes feeling the ting of conscience, liberated his slaves. This did Samuel Gibson, a Negro of Mississippi, in 1844, when he brought his six slaves to Cincinnati, Ohio, and settled them on free territory. Negroes Held Slaves Practically all of these Negro shareholders were in the South Slavery, however, at that time had not been extirpated altogether in the North, and even the Negro was following in the footsteps of the white man, as this report will show. In the South where almost all of the Negro slave holders were found, moreover, we find some of them competing with the large planters in the number of slaves they owned. Most of such Negro proprietors lived in Louisiana, South Carolina, Maryland and Virginia, as did the majority of all such slave owners. Excepting those of Louisiana, one may say that most of the Negro owners of slaves lived in urban communities. In those parts of the South where the influence of the kind planter near the const was not felt the Negro owner of slaves did not frequently appear. The free Negro themselves, moreover, encountered each difficulties in the lower South and Southwest that they had to seek more hospitable communities in free states. Curse of Neatness The costness of the New England housekeeper is a matter of common remark, and husbands in that part of the country are supposed to appreciate their advantages. A list of dialogue reported as follows shows that there may be another side to the matter: "Martha, have you wiped the sink dry yet?" asked the farmer, as he made final preparations for the night. "Yes, Josiah," she replied, "Why do you look?" THE PITTSBURGH COURIER BRONZE VENUS ```markdown ``` Sunken To Level Of Human Derelict, Man Discovers He Is Heir to $100,000 Fortune Ernest Linneckamp, Icelandese Portrait Painter, Picks Bessie Allison As Prizewinner. (Special to the Pittsburgh Corner) NEW YORK, Feb. 14—Billed in the "Bronze Venus" of Alabama, Miss Allison's pretty head has not been "turned." When Fence Linenhamp, Viennese art trout painter, Sunken To Lew Derelict, Man Is Heir to $10 Destiny Smiles On Beggar, Habitue of Norfolk Underworld—Mother's Death Leaves Him Wealthy. NORFOLK, Va., Feb. 14. — In there something in the lives of men that shape their destinies or does destiny shape itself and laugh with us or at us in our plight. Some are born with fortune while others are interwoven with poverty at the loom of life. Joseph Wickworth, said to be a neer do well, a frequenter of the haunts and dives of South Norfolk and Berkley, received news from New York city to the effect that his mother had just died in that city leaving him the heir to $33,000 in cash and $77,000 in real estate and railroad shares. How does it feel to be eking out an existence from the very depths of poverty, want and privation one day, and to awake the next morning and find yourself a person of wealth and affluence? In the case of Wickworth, the hand of Fate shuffled the cards and dealt him out the ace. According to reports from New York, Mary A. Wickworth, Joseph's mother, died January 1, and in her will it was disclosed that she had in her life accumulated $33,000 in bank accounts and the remainder of the $100,000 estate in property, of all which she directed to report to her son Joseph upon her death. Man About Town Joseph Wickworth is well known about Berkley. Although, apparently inheriting fine traits, it is claimed by those who know him, that through dissipation and whisky drinking he has sinned to the level left a human derelict. He is desirig- 2017 New York two months ago to paint the fifteen most beautiful women in America, he chose Miss Allison, 21 years old, of the chorus of "Running' Wild," to represent Negro beauty. "I was surprised," says the shapey Bessie. "It is all very wonderful." Miss Allison is a New Yorker; a graduate of Wadleigh High School, where she took honors in a costume designing course. Herr Limonkarnan says Miss Allison is the most beautiful Colored girl he has ever seen and he is going to paint a full length portrait of her. Level Of Human Discovers He 00,000 Fortune ed to be a man about forty year old, earn free, happy-go-lucky and an in- veterate drinker. Only last week, the day before he received word of his mother's death, it is allowed that he went into a place of a business friend of his and asked the loan of a quarter. He was given a quarter when he admitted that he wanted to buy food with it. "I'll pay you the money. Saturday when I go paid, I will give you a dollar for this quarter." As he turned to leave the place he promised that he would some day be able to return the favors of his friends. "Feet Word of Mother's Death" Written in Witness' attestation of a life of disdain, want and suffering showing on his countertie, he left the pressing shop, clutching pitifully the money with which he intended to feed himself, according to the story of those acquainted with the man. The following morning the local police received request from the New York authorities asking them to locate one Joseph Wickworth and inform him that his mother had died in that city and bequeathed to him all her earthly wealth of $100,000. It is said that Wickworth often spoke of his mother and said that she owned property in New York, but never revealed to his friends that the property was in his mother's name. The news of his sudden death, has not affected Joseph in the least, it is said. He and his wife left for New York early this week. Sells Stock, Gets $12,000 CLEARSPRING, Md., Feb. 14.—A. L.

Madam Estelle Offers Harlem Paris' Latest Noted Beauty Culturist Largely Responsible for New York's Claim to Having Prettiest Girls. NEW YORK, Feb. N. — When the New York girl is in search of "aids to beauty," you can be assured she finds it—not in the pice torial advertisements of our magazines or in "hints" from the pen of a friend or screen, but in the immaculate, inviting parlor of a reputable culturist. There are many of them in Harlem, all gay, all good in their splendid way. But distinctive a mong them is Madam Estelle's.

L., Feb. 14. — The cow of nursery rhyme fance that inspired the elopement of the dish and the spoon by leaping over the moon was an amateur compared to an athletic cow owned by a farmer near here. The fence jumping championship of the Western Hemisphere has been claimed for the animal. Betsey has a penchant for jumping fences to obtain better pasture. She backs off from the obstacle to be cleared, measures it with calculating eye and after a short dash leaps it Clearly. She has never been known to fail. SOUTHERNER PICKS ODD PETS Three-Legged Dog. 2-Legged Cat and "Loving" Hone Among Them. KINGSTON, N.C. Feb. 14.—The many pets of Charles Doeen of this city are mostly freaks of nature. Doeen's three-legged dog and two-legged cat, victims of Dame Nature are fast friends." The cat is a hardhead Malicee. "They say a chicken isn't boring. Look at this." As he spoke a proud Plymouth Rock dandy with a couple of spare legs rubbed against the man's feet trying to attract attention. Doeen's racon frisked like a kitten when he spoke to it, though coons are seldom tamed. Doeen's most boasted accomplishment is the taming of a South American pecary. They call this the most vicious little beast in the world. "I don't believe it." declared Doeen. "God never made anything mean — not even a snake." EXECUTE 2 HENCOOP ROBBERS Victims Were Coyote Pet., But They Got a Fair Trial. GAYLORD, Kan., Feb. 14.—The first instance of the death penalty being meted out to a chicken thief was brought to Gaylord. Raymond and Edward Reach, farmers, living south of here, one day last fall dug into a coyote's den and found two pups, hardly more than a few days old. These they took home and raised on the bottle. One evening recently, however, the coyotes went on a foraging expedition and when morning came their night's work was seventeen fowls from the chicken pen. A coyote court was called, the culprits were declared guilty, sentences were fixed, and now the belts are drying in the sun. PART TWO SECTION Wylie Avenue MARCUS GARVEY invaded our territory last Sunday. We wanted very much to hear Marcus but feared the repetition of our unfortunate incident as a meeting of the local branch last fall. Garvey was basting in the hostile while his followers all over the country were holding meetings, collecting signatures on a petition in his behalf. The Column attended a meeting of the Pittsburgh branch, signed up and parted with one of those good old dollars. Not because Garvey's plan appealed to us but because of the excellence of the meeting. Now, the Column isn't the kind of a bird who wants to be surrounded by banks of American Beauties or chrysanthemums, but we surely can't appreciate stink-weeds being stuck, in our face. In other words, while we were not insulted, we weren't welcomed. So this will serve to explain why an account of Marcus Garvey's meeting does not appear in the Column. For which Garvey should he thankful. 0 EVERY once in a while, a face which was at one time familiar on the Avenue, reappears. The intervals vary from six months to two years. At first sight they have all the appearances of healthy individuals but an elapse of 30 or 60 days tell the truth—notwithstanding their pledges and promises. A group of five or six youngsters who have been neglected or spoiled by their mothers, begin to handle large sums of money, buy high-priced clothes, flashy jewelry, and wear away from their former associates of tatters and rags. They are up and doing at all hours of the night, but have no jobs or visible means of support. The high-school girl of last year is seen patrolling the Avenue, day and night, rain or shine, with stiffened gait and meaningless stare. Yes, the dope ring has fresh young blood and is making use of it. Some day there will be trouble down this way and somebody will get hurt. For they are an unsuperdual but have been clever enough to evade suspicion. The police are watching the older addicts but a group of citizens are watching the younger ones. And some day there is going to be trouble down this way. THE Little Savoy advertises the property for sale by turning on lights and opening the front door. Quite a contrast to the days when "booch" was dispensed. The regular signal then was: one front light burning and the front door closed—but not locked. Some things surely change. THE most conspicuous feature of the Avenue during the past week was the absence of the tineans and gospel cart — Bad weather. There will be another reason soon. Down at the David Parlor, which is an establishment for white patrons), bulk-line and pocket-billboard players are featured twice or twice each year. The sport pages of the white dailies carry accounts of their practice periods, and other activities preliminary to the exhibition or tournament match. Good players are encouraged to become better players, not only because they will be given an opportunity to exhibit at the David Parlor, but because they have an opportunity to win money if they can defrae other players of count rating. Playing an exhibition game is an incident with the master billiardist—what he keeps in condition for it to win wages, prizes, money. And everybody who has spent as much at two days out of twenty years in a pool room knows this to be a fact. Only last week. Hoppe and Schaffer displayed their wares, money was bet, won and lost—by spectators, at least. And every city official from the Mayor down to the street sweeper knows of this condition and evidently gives it their O. K. But the poor little detective, who is kept busy locating himself, says its wrong and last week proceeded to act accordingly. "Georgia" is said to have won $175. From a visiting pool players, who has defeated some of the best players in the U. S. Detective Ferris believes that this rumor is sufficient to keep "Georgia" boy in the jail house on a charge of being a suspicious person. How do they get that way? By whose instructions, must they pass up a downtown gambler and prosecute the winner of a nearly $175,000 because it happened, on the Avenue? What's fair about it? If a bet is made on city hall is it collected by some other name in order to hit within the law? No, the Column has no special interest in the man. In fact we know less about this man than any of the hundreds who traverse the thoroughfare. But we are interested in the practice. We can't understand why this or any other narcotic of fice could pass up the hundred and one addicts and peddlers, on the Avenue to arrest a man who is known to be a chaufeur, and billiard ball attendant (having worked 2½ years at a downtown establishment) simply because he outplaced NINE outguesed and outsmarted a pool player and thereby came into the possession of $175.00 Pool is a game sanctioned in every state in the Union—as far as we know—and surely we would like to have some players ranking with the best. But if every NEGro player who wins $100 or more is to be arrested and thrown in the bastille, surely we have no way of encouraging them. If Mr. Ferris had no other charges against "Georgia" Roy than that of playing pool, we can't see where any credit is due the arresting officer. Take a look at a few of the butcher shops and confectionery stores who are selling "hoochy". Old Lady Rumor almost wrenched her ankle in her haste to reach the Column and whisper in our car. At the inter-dominational conference of ministers last Monday, Rev. Augustus Jones of Central Baptist Church (which is on the Avenue) was allotted five minutes in which to report on conditions and suggest a remedy. The Reverend got the conditions before them O. K. but sought to emphasize the remedy by a comparison—and right in the middle of the comparison the chairman signalled and of course, Rev. Jones took his seat—although his few remarks were unfinished. For the benefit of Dr. Jones, his followers and those who misconstrued his meaning, we quote in substance the unfinished remarks: "Our biggest Problem is a Political one not that we don't have good men but because the good men Klan can say anything against them whom we can induce to run for office are usually so well known as such that not even the Ku Klux—and quite naturally, they endorse them. This endorsement, which may be promoted by good motives even by the klan cannot be appreciated or accepted by the colored race and our deductions are, that the candidate which was our first selection is a blasman and naturally opposed to the best interests the darker race. Therefore, we are compelled to support the man without Ku Klux attributions or endorsement, who is usually some professional politician or by his man who knows him because he is strong him because we are equipped to—therefore he owes us nothing and gives us nothing. Proof of this condition was brought out clearly in the fast country election. Which sounds mighty good to the Column. . OUR good friend Foster says that the doctor and druggist will arrive that advisability of keeping a drug store open at night or arranging a schedule whereby persons may get medical aid after 12 o'clock until enough people die from a threat to attract the attention of our law making bodies. There has continued "one or two doctors in each neighborhood will be available, and one drug store will be open at night—though the receipts may not total $1,000. It will be available then, because the law will allow that one drug MUST remain open after 12 o'clock." The druggist says that it will never happen—because, druggist, are human—they need sleep, and treat they like to enjoy a chick-on-dinner with wifey, or surprise her some night by taking her to one of the "two in the morning" card parties, etc. In the meantime, the Column is joining Salem, or one of its demographers. NOTWITHSTANDING the general classification of Negroes as undesirables, there are two conditions among all races which ignore whether the principals be black or white; motherhood and widowhood. Mothers and widows, alike, have a great deal in common and a charitable sympathy replaces the discriminatory objections as fostered by the male of the species. Newspapers and organizations of divers purposes united during the past week in an effort to raise sufficient money to help the widows of those fireman who were victims of a recent disaster. True, there were no black widows, but dark firewars were This is just as it should be; but our half-baked intellectuals seem to think otherwise and in entertaining such thoughts are contributing to the monachen which we are continually trying to combat. We felt proud in seeing the firemen carrying the boxes last Saturday, and still prouder when the colored firemen were seen on the Avenue working indoors and out. But our hat goes off to the latest announcement, coming as it does, after sufficient time has elapsed for all of our many organizations to do a work which they have overlooked. Jimmy Bates is to conduct dance at Royal Garden Academy and turn over the entire proceeds to the firemen's widows, which we think is a commendable feat and deserving of unstinted support. Watch for the show cards. Pullman Porters Serenade R.R.

TEN Miss Clara Smith Blocks Traffic On Wylie Avenue Miss Clara Smith, Columbia record star, accompanied by her pianist, Stanley Miller, opened Monday night at the Star Theater to the largest crowd of the season. To say that she proved an overcoming success, would be putting it mildly. Hundreds of admirers were turned away from the little Hill playhouse, and traffic along. Wythe avenue and Fullerton street was actually blocked for hours. Several policemen were required to hold back the crowd. She is hooked to appear all of this week and Saturday will have an early performance at 6 p.m. In addition to Miss Smith, Jenkins and Jenkins are on the program, in a music and comedy act that is a scream. Jenkins own masterpiece, "The Humped-Man" song by himself and composed by him is a riot. Then comes the silver tone of Brown and Stratton, whose boldly harmonizing voices and coy ways bring down the house. Last, but not least, comes Billy Cornell, an eccentric composer who "begged for a chance on the screen," and made good. Pullman Port R. R. Official ATLANTA. Ga.

Shuffle Along Reorganized A reorganization of the Shuffle Along Company, Inc has been effected. Milton Gasdorfer heads the corporation. This was made possible through the elimination of Sissle and Blake, the composers of "Shuffle Along," giving the Gasdorfer faction the majority stock interest. In exchange for their release from "Shuffle Along," Sissle and Blake stepped out. The team will appear in another show which is to be sponsored by B. C. Whitney. It will not be called "Sissle and Blake's Shuffles of 1924" as was originally intended. Instead, however, "Bandanna Days" or "Bandanna Land" will be substituted. Greenlee and Drayton, of vaudeville fame, will probably assume the role played by Sissle and Blake in the original Shuffle Along. The new company has fifteen weeks to rehearse for the new show, after which they expect to go to London. Louis Asquith, attorney for Gasdorier, arranged the reorganization and is also secretary-treasurer of the new corporation. --- There will be a pageant given under the direction of Mrs. Helen Scott, entitled "The Picture of Truth" for the benefit of the St. Philip's Episcopal church building fund on Monday evening, February 25th.

Magazine "The Caravan" Says A. B. Rice Has Best Column in Journalism. NEW YORK, Feb. 14—A. B. Rice, fraternal editor of The Pittsburgh Courier, has been commended in the January, 1924, issue of The Caravan, a monthly magazine published by Whitney and Jackson, at 169 West 131st Street. The magazine is the official organ of the A. E. A. O. N. Mystic Shrine, "published in the interest of Masonry and all its branches." Speaking editorially, The Caravan says: Noble A. B. Rice, Fraternal Editor of The Pittsburgh Courier, whose column is without exception the most newsy one of its kind that comes to the desk of the scribe—and we read more than fifty weeklies and ten monthlies of the Race—has accorded THE CARAVAN his approval in very generous terms. He admits, however, that at times the "desert terms" as he dubs the Arabic words encountered in this department, are not always understood by him. That we believe to be true of most of the Nobility. It is just for that purpose that they are used. In an effort to make the whole order more familiar with Arabian history and the traditions of the Mohammedan religion upon which Skrinsdom is built, the Editor has hit upon the policy of utilizing those Arabic expressions in the hope that curiosity will prompt the study necessary to learning their meaning. Our own experience has shown that as we find the meaning of a particular word, we absorb, sometimes, subconsciously, other knowledge of associated interest. Your editor was no more familiar with their meaning, than would any other Noble be without special study. That study has been cheerfully undertaken as part of his contribution to our advance in Shrinodom, and as part of the effort to broaden the general education of our race group, beginning with himself, but unselfishly taking with him his brethren. The question naturally arises: does the Nobility approve? At this we have wondered; and Noble Rice has opened an opportunity for us to ask the direct question. It is the purpose of the Editor to respond to the literary requirements of his readers.

For several years after a most successful tour of many cities in interest of Community Service I ceased to jot and clat about the happenings of folks in a social way. But, oh, what a yearning I had even in that time to grip a pencil and write and write and write. The newspaper game is very fascinating: the press is broad and instructive. I find great pleasure in writing and telling the story to the many thou-sand readers who enjoy the columns of THE PITTSBURGH COURIER.

This year the services were held in Gibson's New Dunbar theatre under the auspices of the Sunday Afternoon Forum, of which the Rev. Dr. Henderson is president; Elijah Hodges, chairman of the Forum committee of the club, introduced President Edward Henry, who presided, following the usual exposition of the purposes of the Forum by Rev. Henderson. Dr. Charles A. Lewis, speaking on "The Spirit of Douglass," was brief, and forceful in his remarks. He urged the necessity of our absorbing the indomitable will to do which had been the chief characteristic of the abolitionist. City Sollicitor Joseph E. Gaffney, making the principal address of the day, eulogized both Douglass and Lincoln. He said that he was religious enough to believe that, from time to time God has raised men to be His instruments to end some great wrong or to dominate some crucial situation. Such had been the was a very wonderful affair. He is an artist of rare ability and poise and voice range that only, the cultured could have. There was a mobs of folks in the largest and oldest place of music in Philadelphia.

He took his place with the many other great artists whose voices have echoed through the famous old Academy of Music. Glimpses in Fashion Row "Tis the "Quaker City" that is true, but the fairer sex surely do not dress like Quaker maidens. Their ideas of fashion are quite flashy. And their taste is a bit more exclusive and varied, than just a bonnet and an empire frock. For, behold from the tip of their head to their dainty slipped feet, they are the last word in the art of Fashion. Now there is Mrs. Tom Powell, one of the season's brides in a costly wrap of dye ermine, exquisitely trimmed in beige fox. And what can be more snappy than the bierge caracul jacquette trimmed with mink cuffs and collars. Doesn't Miss Dorothy Abele wear it well? To say nothing of Mrs. E. C. Brown in her long beaver coat and the little bride, Mrs. Dorothy Hendricks McKinney, in a pretty squirrel coat. And yes that is Mrs. George Deane in a rare jacquette of mink, heavily trimmed in fox of the biege shade. And there is Mrs. Royal Weaver wearing a wrap of squirrel.

When Christ died, a martyr on the cross, men had been freed of their sins; when Lincoln died the Negroes of the South had been freed from slavery. He brought home the meaning of opportunity and showed how Douglass and Lincoln had always grasped the chance when it offered itself. Mr. Gaffney said that his hearer should never lose an opportunity to honor these men and that such gatherings made an impression on the public. He asserted that we were being judged now by the type of men who were in civil and public life and that we must see that our leaders were qualified and so conducted themselves that they reflected credit on the race.

At the present time all the leading journals of the Virgin Islands are engaged in running serially a most timely article from the pen of Judge Washington Williams, which teeming with facts, refutes the many lies told by a free lance journalist in one of the prominent American magazines. Judge Williams is supported by the majority of the people here and as it is doubtful if empty oratory can withstand the firm foundation of truth, those Americans and Virgin Islanders truly interested in the progress of the islands will soon recognize these seeking to raise funds for their own personal benefit and those posing "saviors" of the islands and their people. Conditions Deplorable. That the islands are in a deplorable condition goes without saying, but to trace this condition to the dings of the administration is a battle, which any man or woman of truthfulness can attack. Many of the people in those islands are mindful of this economic condition and would give, anything to see the islands once more on a prosperous basis, but that is something apparently of the past, as poor little St. Thomas has failed to compete with new bigger neighbors, particularly Porto Rico. I have said before and will repeat that prohibition is not primarily on solely responsible for this economic condition. This condition is asserted itself long before the Americans took over these islands, and it was vividly manifested with the departure of the Hamburg American Line from these shores. Where it is not for the may how would these islands fare? It is all good and well for one to great over and about "miraculous conditions" even though said condition may be magnified and to talk about legalization, but it is another thing to offer beautiful and helpful solutions to the matter.

Reminders from the land ing American dailys and magazines have come down here to write on the conditions. Congressmen galore have been here, meetings convened and an actual account given them, but until the commission was sent no remedy was offered from trace sources. St. Thomas can only be used as a naval depot or station, and if certain rumors are true though things are pointing that way. I think that St. Thomas particularly will get added life and things will touch more. St. Croix is better off having its her husband, the farmer, as Agriculture is a duty I have to work in St. Troins. The local administration is sympathetic to the needs and requirements of the fisheries and has done much in helping along. Those reports about race-crimes, stunning and the like are not true. Such reports are in keeping with the kind of journalism which印和 the Virginia Island Commission attendirn a meeting of new papermen in New York where the truth of the matter was known to two members stopped into the office of a certain paper and the publication, ever so slowly, every month by which it can appear before the public as a lover, beaver, etc. made it appear as if the commission called in a body to pay their respects and put it before the left of their lovely, but it is not very good proof that it was "passing straits" that the eminent of news-paper oil and petroleum in India and one individual looked upon as a boast of thought and action but the greatest city town.

I saying that our President measured up to the moments of his office in the preparation and delivery sent address before the National Republican Club indulging in wild enthusiasm or unrestrained felicity. Perhaps nothing President Coolidge has said signed to the Presidency has so pronouncedly disdibly ability as his address on the 12th instant. closed him as a man of deep conviction and a warrior with the grave subjects touching American life him as a rhetorician skilled in the scientific use disclosed him as a statesman courageous and brave of his convictions, and yet appreciative of the possible opposition. In delivery, he moved from the case and natural poise of an orator train. And nothing was left to be desired. From the days of Lincoln to the Teapot Dome Scandal, he moved mainly and propriety that was highly appropriate. Our problem, which enjoyed first attention, was important, in point of treatment, than the allusion of tax reduction. In words too few for comfort and why this government sent arms into Mecca but none the less significant, he gave his positiv attitude toward any and all who violated a public section with the now infamous oil leases in the wee Taken upon the whole, the address was the most could have been delivered. It was comprehensible in spirit and purpose, and left absolutely no pretext for doubt that Calvin Coolidge really made high and exalted standard long since set by people for their President. If any there be who did to stand guard for the rights of the American government, we quote his closing, and his veryence: "He that keepeth Israel shall neither slay In saying that our President measured up to the requirements of his office in the preparation and delivery of his recent address before the National Republican Club, we are not indulging in wild enthusiasm or unrestrained felicitations. Perhaps nothing President Coolidge has said since he ascended to the Presidency has so pronouncedly disclosed his scholarly ability as his address on the 12th instant. His effort disclosed him as a man of deep conviction and a working familiarity with the grave subjects touching American life; it disclosed him as a rhetorician skilled in the scientific use of words; it disclosed him as a statesman courageous and brave in the assertion of his convictions, and yet appreciative of the merit of any possible opposition. In delivery, he moved from line to line with the case and natural poise of an orator trained for his task. And nothing was left to be desired. From the life and times of Lincoln to the Teapot Dome Scandal, he moved with a certainty and propriety that was highly appropriate. The agricultural problem, which enjoyed first attention, was none the less important, in point of treatment, than the all absorbing question of tax reduction. In words too few for confusion, he told how and why this government sent arms into Mexico. And last, but none the less significant, he gave his positive position and attitude toward any and all who violated a public trust in connection with the now infamous oil leases in the west. Taken upon the whole, the address was the most timely that could have been delivered. It was comprehensive, frank, even in spirit and purpose, and left absolutely no opportunity to pretext for doubt that Calvin Coolidge really measures up to the high and exalted standard long since set by the American people for their President. If any there be who think him afraid to stand guard for the rights of the American people and their government, we quote his closing, and his very reassuring sentence: "He that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep."

THE cause of the imprisoned soldiers at Leavenworth is resting at the door-steps of President Coolidge. The petition, with over one hundred thousand signers, was left with the President last Thursday, February 7, 1921. It was a history-making event. With the possible exception to Monroe Trotter's inmate disposition to constitute the proverbial fly in the ointment, the presentation was illustrative of sane, intelligent and yet positive action on the part of our and you who knew how to make intelligent effort for a can purpose, without acting from the cause. President Coolidge was deeply interested and exhibited his interest. His response was highly respectful and clothed in language that could not be misinterpreted. If he can find it possible, under all the facts and circumstances surrounding the case, to exercise executive clemency, we are satisfied he will do it. It would be a source of regret to the President, if investigation discloses the impossibility of executive action. There was no effort made to conceal his real attitude. His manner and his words he honek his conviction. Now that the petition has been presented, and it suffered not the least in the hands of James Weldon Johnson, we must abide a suitable convenience for the President to give the matter the attention it deserves. It will require time to investigate the bulky record of the case. It will require time for the President to review whatever findings are placed before him. We have petitioned, and we must now await results. The whole subject is now up to the President. Zahniser, the Rumor King OR THE past eight or ten years we have been the attacks of one Rev Zahmiser, white, against administration Pittsburgh has had for as many years is said to have done more to give Pittsburgh a son by his various reports of vice, of crime, of what not, than any other one man who ever lived. If this is true his reputation is not to be envied At last Council brought Zahmiser to time. He is city fathers to tell what he knows about the "bion" of his and our city. He was placed under go to it." He went. And where did he go? Zahmiser ran immediately to cover by admitting run on thin. Maybe it was a crime FOR THE past eight or ten years we have been listening to the attacks of one Rev Zahniser, white, against every administration Pittsburgh has had for as many years. The man is said to have done more to give Pittsburgh a black reputation by his various reports of vice, of crime, of corruption, and what not, than any other one man who ever lived in Pittsburgh. If this is true his reputation is not to be envied. At last Council brought Zahniser to time. He went before the city fathers to tell what he knows about the "bad administration" of his and our city. He was placed under cath and told to "go to it." He went. And where did he go? Zahniser ran immediately to cover by admitting that he did not know one thing. He said he acted on "rumor" when he went to the police department and asked for action. He could not, at least he did not, give a single instance where he had proof of a single violation. He said he "heard" this or that, and took it up with the police department for action. "But there is one thing he did not "hear." He knew it. He knew Jones resigned his job. He knew what Jones said was the cause of his resignation. He knew Jones said he was being interfered with by Goshorn, city treasurer, and for that reason a stop to crime and gambling could not be had as requested by Zahniser.

CONFERENCE 11-17 PUBLIC GALBERT HOLLAY. 22 enforced against all the crime he "had heard about" in Pittsburgh. Zahniser, in our opinion, is dead as a reformer. No one will ever believe he is interested in the welfare of the community. He has withheld from the people the fact that Goshorn prevented Jones from executing the law against crime. What did he withhold the truth for? Why? Yes, why? Well, the people will have their own convictions; but our suggestion is that Zahniser pay more attention to his church work, and less to "rumor." If there ever was a living illustration of the necessity of keeping preachers out of the government Zahniser offers that illustration. Zahniser has won a new name. We ought to call him the "rumor king."

Any man who wants work, and wants to live by working and earning real money, can find room in the City of Pittsburgh. The man who does not want work, but who prefers to live by his wits or by tricks unknown to honest toil, had better find some other town. Pittsburgh works for its bread; and there is a welcome for the man who desires to become a fixture in the greatest workshop in the world. This invitation stands, and has abundance of fact to support it. It is issued to real men only. But work in Pittsburgh is as hard as in any other city. The Work is far from play. Indeed, there is no such thing in Pittsburgh as a "snap job." Iron and steel are as heavy in Pittsburgh as in any other place, and it requires as much real muscle to earn the pay envelope in Pittsburgh as it does in any other community. But the fact is that the work is here. The money is here, and the opportunity to earn it is for the man who wants work. If you are looking for work with ample pay, your attention is called to the Pittsburgh district. EDITOR'S MAIL Virgin Islands, Again Editor, The Pittsburgh Courier; Sir—The article entitled "The Virgin Islands Under American Rule," written by George Washington Williams, in Current History Magazine for February is biased, evasive and full of race prejudice. It is only necessary to recall the articles of Arthur Warner in The Nation last spring and Garrison L. Harding's recent writings in Christian Science Monitor. Both writers concur that the social, economic and political conditions in the Virgin Islands are rotten, and made open pleas for immediate reforms. Mr. Williams knows that the average American is not acquainted with conditions in the islands. Hence his attempt to inform them through the channels of prejudice. He is a gentleman from the South, and you understand that means an awareness of the nature of the neo- THE PITTSBURGH COURIER IN 19 News!" ...IT'S VER ORTA TO AT ONE! SANHEC FEB.

(3) Why were the economic conditions better—emigration loss and employment general, under the Danish regime?

"Colored Soldiers" THE COURT TEST WEEKLY 24, CA —By Holloway DRIN ICE 17 Homely Philosophy By Georgia Douglas Johnson Your Wife's Drus Every woman has a drum. She may not be conscious of it, but she has one just the same. And her mind is beating on it making music when she is apparently quiet and meditating. Each woman's drum is different. Sometimes it is dress; sometimes charity or dancing. Maybe it is singing or decorating her home or loving little children, and so on in countless ways. Women each have their little drums upon which the beat out soft little tones that their hearts keep time with. Now don't take her drum away. If you do you break the spell and she becomes unstrung and out of tune. The wise man respects his wife's little drum and lets her play it on through life. So step clear of that cherished little drum, don't smash it and don't take it away if you will have the background of its subtle harmony always playing in your home. pany have forwarded me a marked copy of your paper of the 20th ed. in which my "Colored Soldiers" was criticized. I am very much pleased at your comments and wish to thank you for them. I take this opportunity, saying also that I was surprised to find nothing to which I could object in your paper. I was particularly pleased with the article by Dunjee-Houston. It was just what a thoughtful white person would like to have said, but would hardly have dared to say. I have often told white friends that the Negroes couldn't justly complain at us for having race prejudice when they showed the same prejudice by trying to eradicate every possible Negro characteristic. Down here they even go further—they drop all of the beautiful folklore songs and stories and take up the cheap nonplace stuff that the cultivated white people are ashamed of. I have always tried to write nothing which would make any more enemies for the Negroes. Or course, there are many criminal Negroes, but there are plenty of others to tell about them. I wish the Negroes would take on the job of telling all of the Negro defects. This would make no enemies among white people. It has a bad effect for white people to have to tell about bad Negroes. What I started out to say was — please mail copies of your paper of January 26 to my following colored friend. Some of these should become your permanent subscribers. Let me know the amount and I will remit for this. Hoping that neither you nor I will ever publish anything which will increase the suspicion between the races, I am. Very cordially. W. Irwin MacIntyre, Thomasville, Ga. By Floyd J. Calvin Nick Chiles Copyright, 1924, by Pittsburgh Coorier Fab. Co. IN HIS proclamation to the American people, on the death of Woodrow Wilson, President Coolidge closed with these words: "Done at the City of Washington this third day of February, in the year of Our Lord one thousand nine hundred and twenty-four, and of the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and forty-eighth." It is in "the Independence of the United States of America the one hundred and forty-eighth" that we wish to judge Mr. Wilson. Looking over the century, and a half of the public's history we see, the characters who rose to the heights demanded by circumstances and led the people in a righteous cause through a maze of complexities and difficulties to victory. Those men were George Washington, Abraham Lincoln and Woodrow Wilson. the very method B down. We submit this pleasant tasks, but work is a ne finchingly. WRITER in a snap at "Brilliant M who failed and blamed and who through they were jealous to know that the work—and results Washington founded the nation and is justly called the father of his country. Lincoln saved the union and made liberty and freedom mean more than empty phrases. He is immortalized as the Great Emancipator. Wilson led the nation through the terrific struggle of the World War with a lofty idealism which never failed him." On one occasion Wilson said, "I summon all honest men, all patriotic, all forward-looking men to my side." That was the gist of his philosophy of public life, and that was the principle upon which he led his country successfully through the greatest crises in the history of the world. The heritage which Woodrow Wilson leaves to the world is an unselfish service for the benefit of mankind. Compassion can look to him first as a scholar of the highest rank, then as a man with unimpeachable ideals, and finally as a statesman who held on to what he believed to be right, though his country seemingly regenerated him. We remember Wilson as a dreamer of dreams. Often he was wrong in the execution of ordinary functions in his administration, but those were errors more common to his party than to the party leader. MUCH has been said and written of the "Negro Problem," but a few words from an article by George E. Brandt of Mississippi, now of the Navy Department at Washington, seems about as wise and temperate as any expression coming from the south since slavery. Says Mr. Brandt of Negroes in his own state. "If the Negro were advanced to the limit of his capabilities this state would be the garden spot of the world and there would be no Negro problem, for the simple reason that the Negro will have ceased to be a burden. The Negro problem, with all its various ramifications, exists only because the Negro is incompetent. Make him competent (and it can be done); enable him to stand aline and to carry his share of the burden; hold out to him the hope of reward; give him the means of securing happiness; do these things, I say, and he will solve his own problems to the infinite relief of our civilization." We now and then hear of the "better element" in the South, but its still small voice is more often drowned by the yappings of the freezied mob. Yet its work is evident. After the long night of black despair brought on by southern politicians, men are beginning to face tarts as they are. The old school has gone. It was something that had to be lived down. With the coming of the new school we shall see many and varied changes. THAT the office is a public trust" seems to have been lightly neglected by ex-secretary of the Interior Albert Fall, and the present Secretary of the Navy Edwin Denby. It appears that the housing of Naval Oil Reserve No. 3 in Wyoming argh Naval Oil Reserve No. 1 in California to private corporations for exploitation can be construed in terms of favoritism. Mr. Fall seems to have suddenly become possessed of a certain $100,000, which he can not so easily explain. And testimony of Edward L. Doheny and the silence of Harry F. Sinclair, both multi-millionaire troops to influence that little skimping of "time change" around official doors in Washington can produce marvelous results in the way settling "the inside track" or being put "true." A. For Fall so is already out. Denby's going should be predicated upon the findings of the investigation. Also criminal prosecution should be instituted wherever violation of the law can be discovered. EDITOR NICODEMUS CHILES, who for twenty-five years has more or less successfully piloted the Topeka (kan.) Plaindealer, and who for all that time has had a reputation as a valiant fighter for the rights and advancement of his race, now, at this late day, abundances hope and counsels his people to forget their long vigil and go in altogether for things material. The cause of Mr. Chiles' swerve is the notorious-ku blux film, The Birth of a Nation. Of it he says: "We wish to say to our readers that we have experienced a change in opposing so many silly matters that arise concerning the interests of the colored people of this country. As a race we are spending too much time and money in opposing such worthless things as the Birth of a Nation. If we would turn our could build houses, buy farm corporations, where building and loan associations and other things that would be of interest to the race and stop paying so much attention to such frivolous things as the white man uses to divide us, we would be much better off." We feel more like pitying the man who thus expresses himself than cunning him. It is more of a personal tragedy, for evidently the man is honest in his conclusions. The statement simply shows how shallow and unfit are some of our "leaders." Truly the hand of fate could not be more damning to those who look to Nick Chiles for guidance. The Birth of a Nation is admittedly a photodrama reeking with animus between the races. It shows the history, distorted, of a period that speakers and writers solemn refer to; it is founded on passions that represent far from the best in man. The exhibition of such a picture could have not other motive than to stir up hate of some kind. It is a war picture, showing episodes of the country fighting itself, and exploiting an innocent factor, the Negro, which unconsciously brought on the sectional division and strife. And the exploitation of the Negro serves only to arouse unnecessary hate against him for what he did maliciously do. When a Negro says that he doesn't care if a thing of this nature is shown he admits that he is totally ignorant of the influence of such a scene in public opinion. It is certain that the film propaganda will arouse ill-feeling, even in Kansas, and it follows that Negroes could not prosper economically without the good will and assistance of their white neighbors. So that by --- --- --- --- SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 16, 1919 EDITORIAL DOLIDGE IGEST Brilliant Men Light! Religion Today the very method he seeks to go up, Mr. Chiles will fall down. We submit that agitation and protestation are pleasant tasks, but there are times when the accompanying work is a necessity, and it should be done anfinchingly. WRITER in the current American made novel a slap at "brilliant men"—"Why I Never the Brilliant Men." His answer to an anonymous who failed and blamed his associates is, "You never sold YOURSELF to the people whom and through whom you had to work. You they were jealous, but a man of your intellect could know that the answer to leadership was work—and results." We agree. But when a man shows a certainly unfair to what might be a worthy act to hold him in check to suit the whims and peculiarities of the less energetic who can see further than the immediate task at hand. In any opportunity of charity should be respected, but not at the cost of the business as a whole. A veteran bookkeeper may have been at his post for a score of years, and at a time, and always obliging and kindly, but an assistant is brought in who, in six months, is trying to become head of the department, he should be encouraged regardless of what the veteran thinks of him. He had their chance. One worked with him and went up. The other worked with him, and remained in the same old rat. Still authority is a dangerous thing. It must be passed along with care. It can both make and men. For some it turns their need for others causes them to be more grave and medicious, more cautious and conservative. Responsible calls for the exercise of much discretion that for a less important individual would be unnecessary. But when the man with the flash does come he should be given a chance. We do not say make him president of the corporation the first day, but we do say an employee should be measured by his ability to deliver the goods, and not by biased and prejudiced estimates. If he is a laggard, keep him who is or fire him; if he is swift and sure, coach him in matters of experience and get out of his way. COLONEL BILLIE MAYFIELD of Houston, Texas, editor of Colonel Mayfield's weekly, a ku kui sheet, notorious for its vile and rabid attacks on Jews and Catholics, has, like the Apostle Paul, seen the light. Billie got into trouble for bribing a Bohemian one Joe Franka, during a scurrilous campaign on "foeeigners." What was given up to call for at least two years on the county road (as convert) was reduced to a $200 fine. And a Jewish and Catholic lawyer turned the trick that saved Billie. So this is how Billie feels about it. "While I am on the subject I want to thank my Catholic lawyer, Judge George Willrich. He lost a lot of his friends by defending me, but those who censured him didn't understand. I was his sergeant in 1995, and he was my captain. We went through the Spanish-American war together. I was a whip of a boy then, and Mrs. Willrich was a mother to me, and they loved me, for even though I was a wild one in those days, I was good hearted, and memories of the days out in the various camps came to the good old captain, and when I told him I was in trouble the tears came into his eyes, and he put his arms around me, and said: "Billie, by God, they shouldn't harm you." It was my old army captain speaking, and I could almost hear the burgles blowing and the tents flapping in the breeze. We always understood each other, my old army captain and I, and that is why I had a Catholic lawyer in my case, and that is why a Catholic lawyer defended me. I had a Jew lawyer, Henry Kahn, and I want to say right here there is not a smarter lawyer in Texas than Henry Kahn. I want to say that he knows his stuff; that he went into my case from the start with the sole and fixed purpose of getting me out of it. I want to say that he rode trains all over Texas, paid hotel bills and worked night and day on the proposition of getting me freed. "He wrestled with those prosecuting attorneys all over South Texas and finally talked a two-year catch into a $500 fine. I don't know how that Jew did it, but he did. The costs ran up to $1,000, and he had become so interested in the case, he called in his brother and the two offered me the money to pay. I don't take it, but I have done for me. That is what that Jew did for me, and I have been fighting those people all the time." "No Gentle in Houston would have done for me what that Jew did. In fact, most of the help that I have had in this sease came from the Jews. I am now going to fight those people again. Every time I get in trouble, which is every other day, its the Jews who come to the rescue. I don't know why they do it, but it is a cold flat fact that they do. I don't care what anybody says, what anybody does, or who quiets me. I am through with my fight on the Jews. They have always been my friends, dammit, and I am not ever going to a sail them again. They are good people. If anybody thinks the fight should go on, let them hop in it. I am through. "If this is treason, fly at it." We are glad Billic has seen the light. And we are also glad that the Jews and Catholics turned him by kindness and not by force. Maybe Mayfield will turn out to be a real 100 per cent American after all. WE WENT to church Sunday after that. I told him I dock a few things that were complimentary to Christian character. He said, "You have wilt wearing the word garment, and begun to wear your ELLIGON or loose garment." The congregation sat humbly and unmoved. We wondered what it is to store for a public strray away to where their Christian faith casual affair, and not a prime factor in the ethics. We thought how shallow is religion in Negroes—the minister mentioned a man that was staggering drunk, and yet was the pastor and boasted of his true and honestism. This act may seem so crassly out of context that it shouldn't be mentioned, but when we consider the hundred-and-one house and ties that are constantly being given in which members are just as prominent as rank and officers—we begin to see what the minister meant he rebuked his followers. IT is a good sign to see how well the race is hungrens together. The "light," "near-white" and "feeling black" propaganda that has been subtly spread by certain disappointed self-seekers, has fortunately been to no avail. Those who can "pass" refer to all including themselves, as "the black race." And it now quite common to see persons with hardly the "one-eighth" state boldly "public" "I am a Negro" or "we Negroes must pull together." While it seems that almost everybody has been caught in the "kink-out" and "bleaching" craze, we are yet to hear of those who have become lighter refusing to acknowledge those who have not made the grade. --- 0 O
