C., April 10—Mrs. Harriet Walker, wife of Olsie Walker, former Interscholastic Mile and Half-mile Champion of the district, has been hailed as the "trust wife." For the fourth time the fair madame has left her young husband, the last leave-taking occurring several days ago. But around the story breathes love, jealousy, revenge and retribution. Another man named "Marshall" lequires the "third angle." The foremost departures of the wife have been the subject of much conjecture until the story leaked out. The latest separation was precipitated by a jealous quarrel. The husband found a string of pearls and allowed his wife to wear them, but he demanded that she wear them, back him in time, she back him. She grew tired of the annoying situation and a quarrel ensued in which the police were called. Walker went to court and when he returned, after being discharged, his wife had gone. Their cozy little three rooms and in Avenue S had been stripped of all its furnishings save a bed and chair. The husband is said to have won his bride through trickery. The story goes: The young girl was engaged to the said Marshall during the late war. Walker and Marshall, stationed at the same camp, talked of their sweethearts behind her confidence. The Walker in front of Marshall the girl was not what she ought to be. Straightway, Marshall broke the engagement. Then-Walker, to his friend's surprise and indignation, returned home and married the girl. It was only recently the wife found out about the deception, it is said, and she began her series of departures. While each time she has returned to her husband, he is "it her last time. Where the young girl on her vacations is not known, but it is reported that on several occasions she has been seen in the company of Marshall.

Wealthy Magnate Buys Farm For Country Club Frederic W. Wells Wells Sees Cross Burn; Defies Klan Columbia University Student Backed by Alumni and Student Body Graduate of Yale and Ohio State. (Special to The Pittsburgh Courier) NEW YORK CITY, April 10 —The burning of a cross on the campus by the Ku Klux Klan, various letters representing threats of death from that body, resignations and disagreement among members of the teacher and student bodies of Columbia University, and a general state of intense interest in the whole matter by the public in general, represent last week's developments in the case of Frederie W.ells, student of law at Columbia, as a resident of Furnall Hall on the campus, led a certain group of white southerners, also residents there, to protest and demand that Wells move out at once. Furnall Hall represents one of the exclusive and aristocratic bournitories at the school and Wells is the first colored student to live there. The case, whose development began last Tuesday morning with the petition for Wells' removal by J. B. Rucker, chairman of the house committee, rapidly assumed a place in the daily headlines, mainly because of Wells' repeated determination not to budge from the hall. The climax was reached Wednesday night when a hooded group of Klansmen, said to hail from Montclair, N. J. drove up to the campus and set fire to a wooden (Continued on Page 2, Col. 3) BUCKINGHAM, Pa., April 10—Announcement was made last week of the purchase of the 42-acre farm belonging to Charles J.

MAN WHO ORGANIZED PULLMAN PORTERS ANSWERS ACCUSERS MAN WHO ORGANIZED PULLMAN PORTERS ANSWERS ACCUSERS Alleged To Have Squandered Money On "Fast Women" in Chicago's Buffet Flats, Labor Leader Tells of Organized Opposition—Chisum Mentioned. CHICAGO, Ill., April 10—"My enemies cannot stop the program of achieving an independent labor organization for the purpose of securing reasonable adequate wage, just and reasonable working conditions for 25,000 Pullman porters." Robert L. Mays, president of the International Railway Men's Association, delivered the above ultimatum late today, following his arrest last Friday on an alleged charge of visiting a bootlargers' establishment. As soon as news of the unintentional reach, the local office of the association steps were taken to effect an immediate release. he said that he was valiant in the battle of Alabama as a relieving and militant framed, and declared it was the work of an unscrupulous enemy. The "enemy" is said to be an alleged ex-convict of the State of Oklahoma, and also a prominent member and representative of the Assassination of the policeman would not name his alleged conspirator, it is believed he referred to one Melvin Chisum of Tennessee, newspaperman and politician. Chisum sent a news telegram to the office of the Pittsburgh Courier late last Saturday stating that Mays was arrested and accused of murdering Scott T. Scott in a booze raid. He also accused Mays of squandering the Pullman porters money on "fast" women. The telegram follows: The Pittsburgh Courier, 518 Fourth avenue, Pittsburgh, Pa. Robert L. Mays nabbed in raid.

Figures Show Unfairness In Appropriation ATLANTA, Ga., April 10—Pointed and sharp criticism of the school expenditure for colored children in the State of Georgia during the past few years is thought to be one of the reasons for the large expenditures made recently for both colored schools and school buildings for both races. The state of Georgia, from all sources, expended in common school education, in the year 1923, a total of $19,275,866.34. Figures compiled and released by the educational department showed that schools in the state January 1, of this year of $722,218.08, to which should be added $2,805,104.53 as the portion of the Atlanta school bond issue which was brought over to 1923 and expended in new buildings, and which increases the total qualification sources for the year $19,275,866.4. The total expenditures of money for all common school purposes over the entire state, completed today by the state department, is given as follows: - Education expense $ 47,613.57 - White teachers $ 588,472.73 - Negro teachers $ 1,300,088.66 - Buildings, repairs, etc. 8,212,588.92 Buildings, repairs, etc. (Negro) Equipment (white) ...

Don' Don't Miss This Chance 136 SIXTH STREET (Formerly Black's Restaurant) you need not to take professional staff. You have surprisingly hired a convenient Negro from the public. Rev. Emery B. Smith, an alumni-retainer, when the alumni in open election with members from many portions of the country, present elected the veteran alumnus, Dr. William A. Sinclair, to that post. You are paying him $4,000 per year with offices and clerk hires. In addition from university funds, far more than the faithful professors receive after their years of services, and in face of the fact that they are now doing the real work of our ulm mater. You have even gone further and ordered Rev. Smith to publish a monthly magazine in the name of the alumni, The Howard Alumnus, when the alumni was already publishing and for its organ, the Alumni Sentinel. Thus you have abolished the ballot, destroyed all semblance of alumni autonomy, and disfranchised the loyal sons of Howard from all participation in the affairs of the university they love. May I ask how much is expended from the university treasury on your "alumni" organ. It is printed on paper of the finest quality and is distributed the finest free of cost—an expensive organ and an expensive editor for the sole purpose of keeping the alumni under your domination. Your recent attempt to saddle the surrender of the splendid appropriation of $500,000 for our medical school upon Prof. Miller is most represenshenable, for you, and not he, were the father of the compromise. Even the noble Senator Phipps could not make you admit you needed it, and your last word to the Senate was a surrender of this magnificent opportunity for Negro youth. Senator Phipps then put the item in the bill in spite of your surrender, and then you proceeded to misrepresent Howard's greatest son, Kelly Miller, and make him responsible for the huge loss, but his record of noble service to Howard and the whole race through the whole circle of her interests stood him in good stead, and in itself was ample refutation of the cruel charge. Let me admonish you finally against the continuation of Bourton tactic when doubling with colored people. We are just like any other people, our color making no difference, and only the foolish element of white America are capable of holding a different view. When white men are forced to invade the cruelly restricted Negro world in order to make a good living they should at least bring with them a reasonable respect for the race whose opportunities their advent is narrowing. Respectfully yours, NEVAL H. THOMAS. WELLS SEES CROSS BURN; DEFIES KLAN (Continued from Page 1) cross in full view of Wells' rooms. Wells is 28 years of age, and is a member of Charles Young Post of the Amur University. He was educated at the public schools of Union City, Tenn., and after going to Wilbervorso College, at Xenla O., for two years, went to Ohio State University, where he was graduated. Then he went to Yale for a year, won his master's degrees, and now is studying law at Columbia. On March 5 Wells entered Furnald Hall. His application had been made in the regular way. Such applications do not show the race, color or religion of the applicant and when a vacancy occurred Wells was offered quarters in the dormitory. He moved in quietly and kept to himself. Committee Meeting. Called At first Wells was mistaken for one of the elevator: boys at the dormitory. At last it became known that he was a resident student and a meeting of the Hall Committee was called by the chairman, John B. Rucker. The committee voted to ask for the withdrawal of Wells. Although every effort was made to keep the matter quiet and to put Wells out with the least possible fuss, the decision of the committee became known, and the students in the building came to support. Marland Gale, Joseph Zavatt and others protested, but it was not until after the burning of the cross on the campus that a majority of the students joined with them. Then they drew up this resolution: To the Hall Committee of Furnald Hall: We, the undersigned residents of Furnald Hall believe that the recent action of the committee in passing a resolution to request the removal of a Negro from the dormitory was a movement contrary to the public attitude of the majority of the resident body of Furnald Hall; was contrary to the general sentiment, spirit and tradition of Columbia University and should not have been taken without previously consulting the interests and wishes of the residents of the hall. Therefore, we suggest that the committee retract the resolution. committee retract the resolution. The cross burning incident took place shortly after midnight on Wednesday when men in four automobiles drove up on 116th street, parked their cars and carried the cross into the center of South Field. Setting it on fire they returned to their automobiles and drove off in the direction of Amsterdam avenue. Commotion in Furnald Hall The flaming cross attracted the attention of students in the dormitories, some of whom insisted that the men wore hoods and gowns. Nevertheless, as the cross flared up crises of "put the nigger out" sounded in Furnald Hall. Wells was just retiring. He prepared to make a fight. "Keep out of here!" he shouted PLUMBING AND HEATING should be one of your main factors in your new building or in making repairs. WHY NOT HAVE A RUDD AUTOMATIC HEATER es come one Clumped on his door. But the man who was knotting was L. G. Galiberg, a member of the committee who opposed the Rucker resolution. Wells admitted him and others but no attack was made upon the room. of Marblehead, Mass. the Hall Committee of announced his realign of adoption by the co day, of a resolution city authorities to leave. At least four arrested soon to Meanwhile Robert Collier, a student on his way to Hastley Hall, saw the flaming cross and running into the field kicked it down and extinguished the flames. One set of investigators declared the Klansmen who invaded the college precincts in automobiles after midnight were members of the order recruited from the 'violence of Montelair, N. J. One student said he had recognized in the hooded raiders the form of J. B. Rucker, chairman of the house committee at Furnald Hall, and one of the principal objects to the presence in Furnald Hall of Wells. Rucker denied the charge. Stores of students watched the cross burning and told the story. The automobiles containing the raiders entered the university area through One Hundred and Sixteenth street and parked their cars between Broadway and Amsterdam avenue. Charges were also made that a Columbia branch of the order had been organized several years ago, and presumably, still is in existence. A former Columbia student taught at the present institution but must join a related Klan organization meetings had been held near the campus in 1921. Wells himself, while affected by the demonstration, did not weaken, in his determination to keep his room. He was encouraged by outsiders who telegraphed to him to stand firm. He said that if attacked he would defend himself and that only a request by university officials would make him leave the dormitory. The officials, however, are expected to make such a request. While the burning of the cross was thought at first to be merely a student prank, examination of the charred emblem led to the belief that it had been no hurried constructed device. University officials announced their conviction that it was a non-student affair and the students themselves openly asserted that it was the work of the Ku Klux Klan. "I certainly have no intention of leaving Furnald Hall." Wells said. "I came here in the regular way and unless I am asked to leave in the regular way here I shall remain." Not only did students come to Wells' support, but many outside individuals and organizations sent letters and telegrams praising his stand and telling him not to give up. Some offered financial assistance. James Welton Johnson, secretary of the Association for the Advancement of Colored people, sent a message containing the following: "In this case you are not merely an individual, but you are representing the hopes and aims of the best and bravest in the Negro race today. The position in which you find yourself may incur some embarrassment for you, but we feel confident that you are willing and determined to withstand them for the sake of the principle at stake. This association and its national office stand ready to assist you in this fight in every way possible." Wells is the only Negro in Furnald Hall, but a Hindu and two Chinese have lived there some time without arousing comment. While university officials would not discuss: the protest against Wells, they did not disguise their interest in the burning of the cross. While the campus was buzing with rumors, Lawrence R.

"Good Every Drop" BAMA-GEORGIA SYRUP CO. Atgomery, Alabama Packed by ALABAMA-GEORGIA SYRUP CO. Montgomery, Alabama of Marblehead, Mass., a member of the Hall Committee of Furnald Hall, announced this realignment because of adoption by the committee, Tuesday, of a resolution urging university authorities to ask Wells to leave. At least four other members are expected soon to resign. In resigning, Goldberg attacked Rucker for "dollerately misrepresenting the feeling of the majority of students in the hall with regard to the Wells matter. "I believe Mr. Rucker, self-apointed chairman, is not the type of man I desire to associate with." Goldberg said. Refused to Obey "Order" Rucker, Goldberg declared, was asked to resign at a meeting of the committee early in March, but refused, although a second vote of confidence in him failed to pass. Mrs. Lawton, in charge of the Furnal Hall office, accused Rucker of "overstepping his authority" when he ordered her to see that newspaper man who ordered the hall were "followed up" she declined to carry out her "order," she said. On last Thursday night a note was slipped under Wells' door, threatening him with death, and he also received another by mail purporting to be giving him some extenuately fine advice. Although Wells slept but flittythursday night, he did not hear the person who slipped the note into his room. He said he found it when he awoke and, finding it to be a death threat, he became so nervous he tore it up. He said it was about as follows: "My Dear Young Man—Know this, that for the statement made in The New York World by you dated April 3 you shall surely die. Know you also that the K. K. K is for the protection of all American citizens. This includes you. But know you this, who吞服 opposes the Klan shall also die. Did you not know that the Ku Klux Klan is the ruling power of the American government? The Klan excludes Jews, Catholics and foreign-born, but takes notice of the Negro. But when you openly defy the Klan, who directed no efforts officially against you, you signed your death papers. KLANSMEN." Dean Herbert E. Hawkes, whose determined stand in refusing to listen to demands for Wells' removal, is an outstanding feature of the whole matter, will take the matter up officially one day this week. Meanwhile there has been a split in the ranks of those ten students who signed the petition for Wells' removal.

George St. John, white, was held for court without bail Saturday. Stockton, who is an agent for the Star Life Insurance Company, is alleged to have committed the assault after he had taken the girl to his home, ostensibly to help his wife do some housework. According to testimony given at the Northwestern police station Saturday by the Pillory girl, Stockton came to her home at 505 Mosher street, Thursday, and asked her parents to allow her to come, to his home and help his wife do some cleaning up. After reaching his home and beginning work the man secured some ginger ale and gin and offered her some. When she refused to drink it he became insistent, according to her story, and after locking her in a bedroom abused her for more than an hour. Threatens Girl's Life The girl also testified that when she made outries and screamed for help he placed his hand over her mouth and told her he would choke her to death. It was only after he allowed her to go to the bathroom that she slipped down the step and freed herself by opening the back door and running home. She then told her mother, who lay ill in bed, of the assault and had gone for her aunt to get the police when Stockton came to the house to bring her cloak when she had left. Blames Gin For Act According to the story of Mrs. Sarah Bess, an aunt of the girl, Stockton admitted abusing the girl, but stated that he was drunk and did not know what he was doing. Police who were notified by the child arrested Stockton while he was on his way from the home, and he was held without bail at a hearing Saturday. At the hearing he denied the assault and stated that the girl asked him for the gin at the office of the Star Life Insurance Company that Stockton had been an agent for that concern for nearly a year. He is a married man and his wife was employed away from home at the time of the alleged assault.

Boynton, Okla., April 10—A letter to the N. A. A. C. P. of New York, charging that the colored children have no high school, reads as follows: "You see what we are up against in Oklahoma when it comes to educating our children. We are already disfranchised in all other elections from national to city, by registers refusing to register us. Now we are openly informed that our color keeps us out of the little school election. "This is Boyton in Muskegee county, the home of Luther Manuel, the richest Negro boy in United States, also home of Sarah Rector, richest Negro girl in United States, and many other rich Negro children whose wealth has made these white people rich. Boyton is the place where colored people were fooled—to vote $50,000 for school purposes, $60,000 to go for whites and $20,000 for colored. After the election carried, the whites used the whole $60,000 to build them a high school and gave the Negroes none. Since they have added two little rooms to their present building of four rooms. "Though the school and other population is about equal, the whites have a 4-year accredited high school with 21 units. The colored have none. Most of these white people are from Arkansas, Mississippi and Texas. The Ku Klux are strong here." St. Louis Man Murders Wife, Shoots Self ST.

Girl, Although Acquitted Is Reprimanded Girl, Although Acquitted Is Reprimanded WASHINGTON, D. C., April 10.—In a letter to Judge Kathryn Sellers of the juvenile court, former Judge E-M. Hewlett calls attention to a case where a young colored girl while acquitted, was severely reprimanded by Judge Sellers. Attorney Hewlett takes issue with Judge Sellers in the matter. According to a postscript in Attorney Hewlett's letter, he states that so far Judge Sellers has r.t replied to his letter. Judge Hewlett's letter is as follows: Judge Kathryn Sellers. Wise Wills Sellers. Dear Mrs. Justice, I do not wish to be sure that I do not injustice when I quote you as saying, after you very properly acquitted Helen Murphy of the charge of assault. "The white people ought not to employ these colored girls to care for their children of tender years. I would not." She was twice examined by different physicians, and both reports were negative and showed no taint of the disease. This alone was conclusive of her innocence. Out of my answering as I would have done any where else. I feel that color has no place in the court. If I am not strictly correct, will you kindly let me know wherein I misquote you? You see from these remarks a whole race was held up as immoral. (Signed) E. M. HEWLETT. Note—The above letter explains itself. I will say, however, that on Friday, March 14, Judge Sellers said to me in open court, "Judge, I am writing you in reply to your letter, and you will get my answer Monday or Tuesday." No answer yet. There was no testimony tending to show any improper conduct on the part of the girl. The court, however, said, The defendant is technically not guilty" whatever this means. She then said, "If this court had equity jurisdiction, I would put her on probation for her own protection." Here is a girl with no court record, and found innocent, reprimanded in court. What is our duty in the matter? E. M. HEWLETT. Speeds Across Continent To Save Mother Blood Transfusion Restores Woman to Health —Son Travelled Over 3,000 Miles.

DITON RECITAL There is no doubling the intense interest, aroused by the announcement of Carl Ditor's coming to Pittsburgh Wednesday evening, April 30th, in the Holy Cross Parish House. Mr. Carl Diton was born in Philadelphia, 1887, educated in the public schools of that city, finished Central High School for Boys June, 1905, and had the distinction of composing the class march. Thus at a very early age we find Mr. Diton showing rare musical ability. He received a great deal of his musical education in the city of Phila delphia, having studied under Prof. Constantine Pon Steinberg and others at the Fuller Building. Soon the race realized that Mr. Diton was a musical genius. He went abroad and studied in Munich, Germany, which gave him added fame. Mr. Diton is not only a noted pianist, but also composer, having transposed many Negro folk melodies. He has taught in the schools of Texas and Alabama. Now he is teaching music in Philadelphia, takes an active part in all musical organizations, is the National Organizer of the National Association of Musicians and organist of one of the largest and oldest Episcopal churches in Philadelphia. He ranks one of the four greatest Negro composers. His local appearance will be under the quipices of the Music Review Club. Mr. Diton will be assisted by local artists.

Popular Matron Dies Suddenly The late Mrs. Reamer The sudden demise of Mrs. Beamer Barnett Jackson, Friday evening, April 4th, in her home in Martsolf avenue, West View, robbed a happy fireside of its denrest companion and shocked the entire community in which she enjoyed the broad, warm and loving friendship of hosts of friends. Pneumonia, of scarcely two days duration, worked its fatal havoc on the young mother, and ere her loved ones realized the seriousness of her condition she passed to her earned and honored rest. Mrs. Jackson was born in Pittsburgh, February 7th, 1891. She was popular in the younger set in her student days at Peabody High School, where she graduated from the Commercial Department in 1911. Her vivacity and sparkling beauty lent itself to every company of which she was a part. In January, 1918, she became the wife of Thomas T. Jackson, prominent local broker. As a wife and mother she excelled. Her greatest happiness was in administering and training her children in the rudiments of culture and refinement, and her radiant personality manifested itself in every undertaking. Mrs. Jackson was affiliated with the Bethesda Presbyterian Church and sang in its choir. She was also a member of the Just Us Girls. Funeral services were held from her late residence Monday evening at eight o'clock, the Rev. C. Al. Bethesda quartette rendering fitting vocal numbers. The many floral tributes and expressions of sympathy from all parts of the country attested the esteem in which the deceased and her devoted husband were held. A beloved husband, mother, three children, Mary Ellen, aged five years; Linda Beamer, four years; Romaine Trotman, eleven months; a sister, Mrs. Ruby Barnett Arnold; a father, Mrs. Faye Barnett; and relatiyas in Paducah, Kentucky and Lynchburg, Virginia, mourn a great loss. Dr. and Mrs. Albion Horner, of Columbus, Ohio, cousins of the family, attended the ceremonies. Opportunity To Become Beauty Culturist The Mme. C. J.

I know of no American with the possible, exception of Abraham Lincoln who possessed a large sense of humor than Washington. He could always tell a story that drove home his point. His greatest quality perhaps was magnanimity. — his largeness, "I made up my mind long ago that no man, white or colored, could drag me down so low as to make me hate him" was spoken by Mr. Washington at a meeting in Boston.

Blake, Jr Youngest Masonic Order, With Branch Here, Has Only Oriental Band In Shrinedom BY J. R. WILLIAMS The Ancient Egyptian Arabic Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine is the youngest of the Masonic affiliation and is full of life and vitality. It has, by some, been dubbed the playground of Masonry, but there are those who do not like this title. True, they do play, there is fun garage at their institutions and conveniences, summer, but the jolly side is not allowed to dominate or subordinate the main object. The Shrine feels that the dignity and various restrictions that surround symbolic, cryptic and Scottish Bite Masonry and demands a high, sedate and formal style of entertainment, that relaxation can be had through their organization, which gives the entertainment greater freedom, but never license. As charity is one of the keystones of Masonry and is dispensed in the same reserved and dignified manner, the Shrine with its greater freedom dispenses its charity, if not more liberally, at least most spectacularly. In many cities such as Columbus, D., Indianapolis, Ind., Chicago, Ill., Boston, Mass., and many other cities Christmas dinners are given to hundreds of poor children, and baskets of provisions are sent to families in distress; in the summer outings and vacations for the unfortunate mothers and children who would otherwise never have an outing. These are some of the things they wish to be known by, rather than frivolity. In the past five years the organization has more than trebled its membership. It has organized temples in nearly every city of size in the United States and many foreign countries. Some of the latest formed were at Tuskegee, Ala., Hampton, Va., and Manilla, P.I. It numbers among its membership men from all walks of life, and its roster contains the names of most of the prominent business and professional men of our group. The activities of the Shrine are carried on by the Arab patrols, Shrine bands, marching clubs and chanters. The Arab patrols are crack drill tams dressed in Zuave or oriental costumes, and unlike other drill bodies, do not drill by a schedule or programme; they are each allotted a specified time and are judged by the speed, precision and variety of what they do. Until you have seen one of these prize drills, you have not seen the last word in drilling. The bands are crack musical organizations fostered by the local Shrines and, incidentally, Pittsburgh bonasts of the only oriental band in colored Shrinedom. The Chanters are: nothing less than a male chorus, and some of the temples have large, well trained bodies of men who sing remarkably well. The marching club is a group of members; who distinguish themselves from the other classes mentioned by some flashy dress, usually covered by a cape. They are drilled in street evolutions and they tend to enliven the parade: The rank and file of the Nobles, as the members are called, appear in the parade in evening clothes with fez and white gloves. The word colorful, as applied to the Shrine, is most appropriate, to which all will Em. Sir. John W. Eisher, Pittsburgh.

"And the Angel who keeps the records of the years and the deeds of men, transferred the name of George W. Cole to the Book of Eternal Life. "As the Heavenly Choir in joyous chorus acclaimed the advent of this kindly soul, there arose from the world below a minor chant from sorrowing hearts. "As he knelt before the Great Throne, the Lord spake unto him, saying: "Thou hast been a good and faithful servant; thou hast lived justly; thou hast loved mercy; thou hast been without prejudice; thou hast only good in thy fellowmen; thou hast served the Lord by serving, those less fortunate than yourself; thy life has been an example to others and thou hast left behind the priceless heritage of good deeds."

She says it was Exelento Quinada Pelmade that rid her scalp of all dandruff and made her hair grow long, silky soft, and luxurious. It made her hair fairly glow with life and gave it a pretty glossy sheen. She was not delighted with Exelento Quinada Pelmade, the best Dexelento Skin Beautifier for colour complexions and skin bleemakes.

The project will be launched in the spring of 2015. before the legislature of the state with a prepared statement setting forth the various items of consideration under the plea of justice. Dr. S. D. Redmond of Jackson, one of the wealthiest men of this state, read the address. The attitude of the "great" Mississippi legislature is disclosed in the following set of typical Southern Democratic resolutions which were introduced by Gulen, Rice and Collins, and adopted without debate: "Whomas, on Monday, January 28, a delegation of Negroes, claiming to be the representative leaders and spokesmen of their race, asked for the privilege of addressing this House, and were accorded that privilege and given a fair and courteous hearing, and "Whereas, a short time thereafter members of the House received through the mail a circular letter from said delegation, in which they asked for certain changes in the laws and Constitution of the State, particularly with reference to the division of the school funds of the state between the races; a change of the laws pertaining to separate accommodations for the races on the railroad and sleeping cars, and a modification of the suffrage laws, and. "Whereas, it is the sense of this House that the happiness, prosperity and safety of all the people in the state have been greatly promoted by the policy and laws of the State of Mississippi with reference to the questions above mentioned and that there is no necessity for a change of law and policy. It is therefore: "Resolved, by the House of Representatives of the State of Mississippi, that we do now reaffirm our faith and confidence in the Constitution, laws and policies of this State pertaining to accommodations for the races on railroads and sleeping cars, schools, suffrage and other sognate subjects, which in the opinion of this House guarantees full or equal access of race, color or previous condition of servitude, the full and free enjoyment of life; liberty, property, and the pursuit of happiness.

In return the trustees are to buy a six (6) room brick, paved street, hot, cold water, bath, gas and electric, for $5,000, No. 16 Davenport street. The agent being present at the meeting, explained everything that was necessary. "On motion and duly seconded, the trustees went on record and approved the sale of the Manse, one voto opposing and the congregation to be called within two (2) weeks to ratify the same from date. "On Tuesday evening, April 1st, the pastor called the session together to try and forestall the action of the Trustee Board, but the session went on record approving the action of the Trustee Board to sell at the amount stated or better. "We, as members of the board take this opportunity to let the members and friends know exactly the true situation of the affairs of the church. "Members of the board—Dr. Geo. G. Turley, president; Arthur Taylor, vice president; B. P. Pressley, secretary; J. S. Patton, treasurer; A. Hargrove, W. H. S. Rodgers, W. F. Miller." The church is more than $6,000 in debt, it is reported, and the sale of the manse is necessary to liquidate the debt. The Grace Memorial congregation represents one of the most fashionable in the city, and its surprising comment. At one time, its singing was declared par excellent, and its Sunday morning services were largely attended. Just why the old ardor has lessened can be attributed to the "poor management" of the business of the church and the apparent laxity of those in charge of affairs, it is said. To break down the recent order of things, the present trustee board has set its hand. Although the correcting and 'angling of some procedures have been met with some opposition, the present board is determined to restore the church so its former status. All members are requested to be present. Eiffie Woods, president; Carrie Findley, corresponding secretary.

MAYS CHARGES FRAME-UP (Continued from Page 1) booze squad in a booze raid on a bootleggers' joint. Mays was found in possession of three quarts of bootleg liquor and put up stiff battle in effort to get away. It came out at the station house that Mays is a constant frequenter of buffet flats where he, spends the Pullman porters' funds on fast women and white lighting. Mays, it will be remembered, squandered much money a few years ago which resulted in the property which was purchased in this city for a home for Pullman porters, being sold under foreclosure. Proceedings after the porters had invested several thousand dollars in the place which was entirely under the management of Robert L. Mays. MELVIN J. CHISUM. All these allegations Mays declares are false. "There is no record sustaining the alleged assertions," said Mr. Mays to a reporter for The Pittsburgh Courier. "It is my opinion," he continued, "that the party responsible for releasing the matter to the press is in the pay of some sleeping car company. It is all n frameup to discourage us in our fight for fair wage increase. But it is of no avail. I am beginning now a vigorous campaign of organization of all classes of colored railway workers for the purpose of firstly, demanding reasonable wages and proper working conditions from railway companies and, secondly, to fight the unfair and un-American provisions of the Howell-Barkley bill now before Congress, and which, if passed, may mean the elimination of Negroes for railway service in the capacity of skilled workmen." It is said that since early in January a prominent Chicago politician has sought to defame Mays. It is repudiated by the Pullman porter leader was coerced with bribes, browbeaten with thirsts and annoyed by "detectives" until his loyal followers bitterly protested. Led Successful Campaign Mays has led a successful campaign in the interest of the 25,000 Pullman porters the country over, and just two weeks ago an additional four per cent increase was granted the men. The granting of an eight per cent increase by the railway company in February was met by such objection, that the four per cent increase followed. The men are asking for what they believe is a fair increase, and through the efforts of the Railway Men's Association they plan to reap the most desirable results. Mays' arrest has only inspired the men to greater activity it was reported from several sections Tuesday. Telegrams and letters expressing confidence and encouragement poured into Mays' office since Saturday. Ten Commandments 1. Other gods there must not be, 2. Nor to idols bow the knee, 3.

YOUNG BLOOD How I Keep Feeling Young and Vigorous at Near Sixty "I am near 60 years, but I feel as young as I did at 30. I take a cupful of Bulgarian Tea once or twice a week. It keeps me healthy and strong and makes me feel young again," said H. H. Von Schlick, manufacturer of Burgarian Herb Tea. Bulgarian Tea is a great blood tonic and everyone should enrich, refresh and improve their blood. Just a few doses of Bulgarian Tea and you begin to feel a change. Bulgarian Tea is compounded of the purest herbs of high medicinal value and should make anyone feel 10 to 30 years younger when taken once or twice a week. It is the sensible blood tonic for everyone. Ask your druggist for my genuine Bulgarian Tea with my name on the box. Refuse substitutes. Or I will send it by mail postpaid for $1.00. Address me, H.

P.)—According to a traveler in Haiti, the original slapper was the Haitian girl who adopted short skirts decades ago and who used to roll her own as far back as 1915. The girls of that island make regular trips to market and it is their custom to ride on the backs of burros. They carry their stockings and slippers under their arms until they reach the outskirts of the city and then as they ride along they don their footwear, the stockings being held in place by a deft twist about the tops just as our girls have been doing lately. As they return home the footwear is removed and laid away.

Conference A&Louisville, Ky. (By Rheby) here and in our former article, there will be no more rule" in Mr. Koehler's article in pursuit of the seat of the General Conference, and that there must him for pre-election. There are runs, which report that he has the department tied up in court. Whether that is not only he can only be determined by an investigator pertaining the facts. Insofar that Bryant has isolated church in his publication, the General meeting has no jurisdiction. He is a lawyer, is not subject to a special notice of the General Office. In respect to his elocution, it does not appear that there are three demands for the office, all of which a strong showing. This is not present any one time closed on the first ballot, generally if they have been, and prob- ably it is time to come, the thesis in a General Confer- ence on the mission of bishops, and the thing that the lay- lord does not seem to agitate it is really astonishing to find a few of them, that are used with the methods of elo- cation, that it requires to be used. Why is it going to local bishops, with no ideas of it used, and what one must the coming Gen- ligation is an illustration. All delegates at that meeting will receive a ma- nual number of votes, which will be elected. There are local districts. The large- number of votes coming from each district is that of the Sixth genligation which has 44 votes. The fact of a district a candidate does not represent the latter of fact, but can get fifty votes from the dis- sident who is exceed- ed in voluntary. This is true where in the other hand, if he got to be held to be a long ways collected haven. It can be that even to have a portion of success the candi- bate for a connexional charac- terism throughout the country than having that es- sence over such combi- tions will appeal his district to those in nine cases out- standing and well." an annual aspirants for bishops are widely known against the church.

A goodly number have said, "Bishop Vernon was practically new in the church." But they forget that Bishop Vernon was not only president of Quindarbo College for years, but he was a national chaperone as Registrar of the Treasury of the United States. As a consequence he received the highest number of votes over cast for a bishop in the A. M. E. church. / Of course, any minister in the A. M. E. church, who is an elder and has traveled four years, can run for the office of a bishop, which is a "good thing," says the Apostle. But neither running, sitting or riding is unwarranty. There are those who are candidates, who have as much show of being elected as they have in succeeding St. Peter. That the A. M. E. church has made some mistakes in selecting men for the office of bishop, is undoubtedly true; and it is feared that these mistakes of the past will be repeated if they do not frown down the political methods of secret combinations. It is through this method that her great mistakes have been made. There is another political method that the fathers would have considered a vital sin that is now generally practiced, and that is the "district primaries." This system is politics in its worse form, for in it a few men seek through scheming to deprive another of the privilege of seeking that which he believes he is fit for. This scheme has succeeded in dividing every district in the connection, giving the devil as much as he is 'capable of in the use of his fork. There are many capable candidates for the episcopacy. Some near, some not so near, and others, like Moses, just a glance at the goodly place. Many of these aspirants are brand-new, pushed forward by some of their friends, having no constituency whatever. It is that kind, who when defeated, pose as martyrs for righteousness, claiming that "good men cannot be elected." But the facts are: They are not winners of men. They can interest old ladies and women, generally; but to win men requires a stronger bait than feminism. Others fail because of a lack of executive ability. Their plan is to dumbble down the men's heads. These have not considered for one moment that the very thing that caused their failure is the thing that is required in the office of a bishop. Of the great number seeking episcopal honors, some few of them are and have been connectional characters for more than a quarter of a century.

LESSON G. The Failure at Kadesh. Sending out spies to view the land which God had promised them, especially after God's wonderful care for them, was in itself a sign of doubt and unbelief. The majority is not always right. The world needs more Joshuas and Calebs, men and women with moral backbone, men and women who do not get "cold feet" at the first sign of opposition. Our racial group must go up against the giants of prejudice, ignorance and superstition; and "if the Lord delights in us He will give us the victory."

No longer do I call you servants; for the servant knoweth not what his lord doeth; but I have called you friends; for all things that I heard from my Father I have made known unto you. 16. Ye did not choose me, but I chose you, and appointed you, that ye should go and bear fruit, and that your fruit should abide: that whatsoever, ye shall ask of the Father in my name, he may give it you. 17. These things I command you, that ye may love one another. 18. If the world hateth you, you know that it hath hated me before you hateth you. 19. If ye were of the world, the world would love its own; but because ye are not of the world, but I chose you out of the world, therefore the world hateth you. 20. Remember the word that I said unto you. A servant is not greater than his lord. If they persecuted me, they will also persecute you; if they kept my word, they will keep yours also. 21 But all these things will they do unto you for my name's sake, because they know not him that sent me. 22 If I had not come and spoken unto them, they had not had sin: but now they have no excuse for their sin. 23 He that hateth me hateth my Father also. 24 If I had not done among them the works which none other did, they had not had sin: but now they both seen and hated both me and my Father. Helps—We remember that Benhadad was the king of Syria. After his soldiers had come back from Samaria he decided he would try again to capture the king of Israel and kill Elisha. His army was very large, and they besieged the city. Jehoram, the king of Israel, was walking among his soldiers one day who were starving and they begged him to do something to save them from famine. Jehoram being a wicked king blamed Elisha and said that he should be put to death. The king sent a messenger to kill Elisha and Elisha being a prophet knew of the messenger's mission and warned him to shut the door and not let them in. The king then decided with the aid of an officer to go for Elisha himself, which he did. Elisha assured them that the famine would cease, but the officer did not believe Elisha. Punished his disbelief the Lord punished him. At the gates of the city of Samaria were four lepers (Israelite) who had come outside of the city to die. They decided to visit the Syrian camp for them knew if they were killed, certainly one death was no worse than one. But upon their arrival at the Syrian camp they found it evaded. God had made the Syrians think that they heard charities coming against them and they had fled. The lepers then hastened to tell the king of Israel. Jehoram became afraid and sent scouts to look the situation over, but they found no trace other than clothing and vessels that had been discarded by the fleeing Syrians. The king punished the officer by allowing the people to crowd upon him as he was leaving the city. He saw the famine ended, but did not taste the fool.

Beckwith, following his arrival, was chosen to captain the team during the 1924 season, at a special meeting of the club. TEN beautiful during the 1924 season, in This announcement appears to mean that Beckwitt has been decided to re- lease Dismusks from all obligations, and that the former Keystone pilot will again appear in Indianapolis. Beckwitt in Trim Beckwitt was seen Saturday night and announced his intention of staying, here all summer. -Colorful to the extreme, Beckwitt is the kind of player who will make a decided impression, and he will be a district, and his name in a lineup will be an immense drawing power. He will do the receiving-for the Grays. Realistic this fact and realizing that tempting offers from various Eastern magnates were being flaunted almost daily, and Beckwitt went to Chicago two weeks ago, and upon his return brought back the bats which are Beckwitt's greatest hobby. Wherever those bats go, there goes Beckwitt also, and when he appeared Saturday, one of Posey's biggest causes for worry had been removed. Almost at the same time that Beckwith arrived from the west, a teammate of his size added addition, pulled in the East.

Pittsburgh Giants Out Burgh Giants Our Work has been hardest at Central Park, the home quarters of the Pittsburgh Giants, and while this work is going forward, the team is working out with the Homestead Grays at Washington Park. The team, as it shapes up at present, will be the speediest and cleverest of those who know the lifepath of the club, say they will be a replica of the Chicago Whiteosx of 1910-11, generally dubbed in baseball circles as the "hitless wonders." The team won a pennant through knowledge of inside baseball, and the intelligence of the Giants indicates that they should strike a winning stride early in the season. McClure Loses To Y. M. C. A.

Cooper, Gardner, Corbett, Jeffries, Henry and Collins compose the pitching staff. Manager Charlesten declares this the best corps in the East, and he is placing a world of confidence in their ability to come through. Jordan and Daniel's will take care of the receiving.

George Godfrey 一 ago; To Unknown Five As One Of Unknown Five Years Ago, Tenny Blount Now As One Of Diamond's Most Picturesque Twenty-six Players Out For Initial Session — Inner Works "Boss" of League. DETROIT, Mich. April 10—(Special to The Courier)—Five years ago, Kenny Blount, owner of the Detroit Stars, was unknown in the baseball world. Today, he is one of the best known and most popular owners that the game has produced. He is vice president of the Negro National League, one of the directors and President Foster's most trustworthy lieutenants. In five years, he has made a most powerful baseball machine. Starting the spring training of the present season, after three or four days of atmospheric uncertainty, April finally turned on balmy exhilarating breezes mingled with sunshine and much to the delight of fans. This was an advantage for a full practice tilt last Saturday at Mack Park. Twenty-six youthful, brawny athletes trotted out upon the green, so it gave the Blount-Petway combination a chance to speculate on noses for the present season and at the same time estimate on the value of playing goods on hand. One can safely say that Petway's past seasons over that all-important infield, robble is at an end, for in Howard To I Team At Penn Wealth Of I Howard To Have Strong Team At Penn Relay Games, Wealth Of Material Out Bridges; Sensational Sprint Champ, Out of School—Veterans Being Forced By Newcomers. WASHINGTON, D. C., April 10—All Howard track enthusiasts are clated over the showing of Robinson, Craft, Wyndon, and Bright, who are out to represent Howard at the penn Relay games April 25th and 26th. It is by no means certain, for among the youngsters Kenneth Hill, Jones, Robinson, and Smith are showing up remarkably well in the development of form and stamina. Should one or more of these youngsters force the vets to back it up, the team will be faster than ever before. Enthusiasm is running high and in order not to discourage any of the candidates a series of try-outs will be held beginning about the middle of April. Winners of these try-outs will compose the A call was made on the 17th of March for quarter-milers and about 15 men responded to the coach ready for work. Of this number, Bright, the chief, the last year's relay team was the only veteran. It developed that Bridges, who gave premise of being the greatest runner in colored schools, lost his health last fall and had to withdraw from school. Robinson and Craft, could not find the time to train. The coach was up against it to develop three running mates for Bright out of the raw material that came from High schools all over the country. It was decided to give special attention to the training of these youngsters, and to definite prescription of work was arranged for every afternoon. The youngsters and Bright responded to these workouts in very fine style. So much so, in fact, that Leo Robinson and Robert Craft of last year's team decided they would come out and see if they could not be rejuvenated. The team stunts. Not to be outdone, Emmett Wyndon, the elongated half-miler who had no peer in his speciality last year, decided that he would give some of the boys a run for a place in the quarter-mile tryouts. Although the coach has not issued the call for other events, there are a number of athletes to be seen on the track in the campus. E. E. Odds Booking The East End Odds are now booking games abroad. The team would like to arrange games for May and June, and the burgh Giants, Pittsburgh Keystone, Fort Giants, J. J. Deans, Johnstown Independents and the Beltzhoover Colored Athletics.

Alabama State Normal Divides 2-Game Series MONTGOMERY, Ala., April 10-Playing before big crowds on both days during the time of meeting of the Alabama Teachers' Association, the Alabama State Normal Tigers split the game in two, with Coach Abbott's Tuskegee machine. The first game was an onlaught which Alabama State won by the decisive score of 12-4, while the second game was donated to the Tigers. The game was the count had stood 6-3 at the beginning of the ninth inning. This was the statement "Cum" Posey gave out last week, following the defeat of the Loendi club by the Celtics. Posey voluntarily offered the information that next season, instead of importing out-of-town talent, he intended to rebuild the Loendi machine, using local ability to do the trick. Just what actuated Posey's statement is not known. Wesley at first, Pryor at second, Riggins at short, Jeffries at third, It's difficult to see the Detties at this point, but with display enough form to want the belief of full development, and with Charley Williams, a player packing a certifying brand of ability as an infielder and Lowe, another classy performer on the diamond all primed and ready to step into the breech at the least deflection. It is no great mystery why Petway's sullier air has turned to sunshine. Boggs and young Tarrell both, both will understand Cooper, with display enough form to want the belief of full development, into pitchers of worth. Bell, the young righthander from Norm College down around Nashville drew a favorable impression in the dibut, showing form and depot momentum and looks like a permanent fixture. Petway is highly clated, over the acquisition of Barnes, the husk As matters now loom, Pet will have a whole lot of time to devote to the development of his youthful pitching staff, and he has some mighty future prospects, too. Combs is certain to shine this year, while Buck Alexander, bubbling with confidence, should show the way among best of the league. Lefty Cooper, veteran of the staff, never startled a season looking better, and capped like a colt the first time out.

The New York office of The Pittsburgh Courier highly applauds the idea and will help shape the proposition in concrete form. The writer has received few of these "slights" mentioned by Mr. Butler, particularly at the Pioneer Sporting Club, where he was given the "gate."

Union To Meet On Grid PHILADELPHIA, Pa., April 10—It will no doubt be a source of gratification to football followers to know that as a result of the recent meeting of the Colored Inter-Collegiate Athletic Association, irrigation, and recreation facilities at University will resume football relations this fall. At this meeting, which was held in Lynchburg, Mr. H. D. Martin, representing Union, and Dr. W. G. Alexander, representing Lincoln, made a tentative agreement for a game which was later ratified by the Richmond and Richmond schools. This agreement will settle the difference which arose as the result of the last game at Richmond between these two schools. The game will be played October 25 either, in Richmond or Norfolk, Union acting at the host. This will increase the number of games played by both schools among members of the C. I. A. A. DR. E.

This was a disappointment to Lincoln, as there was every reason to believe that the pleasant relations of the past two years would continue under the change without giving Lincoln any notice whatever, merely offering the choice of two other dates, but as Lincoln's schedule, was filled for both of these dates, it was impossible to accept. Lincoln has received only an expense guarantee for the games in the past, and as this particular game was the biggest money maker for West Virginia, it looks as if the loser by not having Lincoln play. Lincoln will also probably play Virginia Seminary in Lynchburg and Shaw at Lincoln.

But the Blagwins—well, really, they weren't counted. There had been a time when they were up, when Courtland was a mere child; but speculations and bad management coupled with short foresight on the senior Blagwin's part had unmercifully reduced them to a modest little home on a quiet little street, with but a modest little income. Early in his teens Courtland had visions of "restoring the royal family to the throne"—just visions. But the Blagwins, like the Hubbards, were of proud lineage. Hubbard senior had an inkling that young Blagwin had his regular habits—"drop-in's" as Courtland termed them—were of a serious nature. But he left such affairs and the like to his wife—Cecilia was a past mistress at delving into intricate human natures; besides he, Hubbard, was a very, very busy man. He simply knew that Mildred would never marry outside the pale—and young Blagwin was especially considered outside. "A dencedly clever chap, no doubt," Hubbard remarked one day, "he'd make it in my office, but in my home—Hubbard is a nice fellow." Courtland Cecilia, Mrs. Hubbard. "Really I don't believe he has any intentions of marrying Mildred, he is so outspoken; besides, you know there's Stainley." It was not long before Hubbard was convinced. It happened when he was returning home one night in declining June—a night he had chosen in which to consider departing at once for the seashore or the mountains. Business had flown, everything had flown, when coming up the walk who should he see but Courtland emerge from the house, closely followed by Mildred from the shadow of a huge bush he watched them feeling of spying and eyes dropping, yet telling himself he was justified in doing so for the Hubbard name and all that— And what could have been more Aspirin Beware of Imitations!

Hubbard would have gotten over that had not—had not Mildred whispered "he was whispered." "O Courtland, further allow that young man'n hold her in his arms. It was outrageous! Hubbard was undone, astonished, shocked. Retiring that night he gave himself a stiff thrust in the stomach with his thumb. "You old blind goat," he jolted, "where have you been all the while?" with a set determination he paused up and down the room muttering uncomplimentary things about himself, the Blawkins and—Cecilia. "I'll—he'll—what the deuce—she said—the devil he will—" were some of his milder mutterings. He heard Mildred in her room and had a great mind to go and tell her what he was thinking, and show her the wherefore and whys— You wouldn't believe it, but things went on like that for a week and Hubbard still held fast to what he had seen. "Summer madness," he thought. It rather, amused him, young Blagwins's assumed impersonal calls. For didn't it seem he would as soon talk away an hour with the younger sister of Mrs. Hubbard as with Mildred? And then, too, Hubbard was a considerate father, not of the irate, impatient kind whose attitude always embodies two words—"I forbid!" But it came, it came—the interview, one beautiful starlit night, balmy and rapturous and heavy with fragrance, night made for lovers, Hubbard and amusement of something reaching charging the air; he could not help but feel the tension. Tomorrow they were to depart for the mountains and so were the Avingtons — Stanlaw, upon whom Cecilia staked all her hopes was an Avington, and of course it wouldn't do—you can't tell how far summer madness might go. Just outside of Hubbard's library, a room where only the elect are deigned to enter, Mildred was prompting him on—Courtland, just a simple, open-hearted lover, such as the world has always known, reluctant of having his feelings trampled upon by an unknowing father. "Court, if you don't go on in," Mildred admonished him, "I'll go in myself an—an' then he'll say that—that you didn't have courage enough to—to." He took her arm and placed his hand over her mouth. "Mildred! Good gracious!" he ex- claimed in subdued tones. claimed with this he squared his shoulders and stepped forward. "If he says 'no', I'm going to have you anyway." He tapped lightly upon the oaken door, and waited breathless for an answer. Deep and powerful came Hubbard's "Comein!" "Have a seat, Blagwin," he proffered when Courtland forced himself to approach him. "Have a cigar, one of my Havana specials—you must pardon me, I quite forget you don't smoke." He waited for what seemed a year for his heart to heat normally. Mr. Hubbard was very patient, yes—very patient. "Mildred has agreed to marry me." Courtland began unsteadily. Hubbard let his glasses fall to his chest and stared at Courtland as if he were something new, unreal. His gaze was not at all comforting. "What!" he exclaimed, mentally weighing every word Courtland had said. "I wish to get your permission to marry your daughter," he stated, now more firmly. Hubbard gasped and rose slowly. Courtland followed suit. "You know that Mildred is young," Hubbard began, fingering his watch chain. "She is only 20—besides I had not though of marrying her off as yet. On the other hand she hasn't finished her schooling, which—" "But she is perfectly willing, Mr. Hubbard," Courtland now pleaded, and we love one another." Hubbard strode over to the bookcase and back again. He then placed a firm hand on Courtland's shoulder, whereupon the young man fairly shivered. Moments of high decision. "Blagwin, you are a good boy, real blood runs through your veins." Hubbard was saying. "Your family has stood much—a great deal—probably you don't know it. I knew your father when he was up; he was every inch a man, and I believe you can skin off the old block. But, Blagwin, you can easily support my daughter, say, something like what she is accustomed to now?" Courtland considered for a moment. "That is impossible, Mr. Hubbard, he answered, "but—" "Oh, that's full right—that's enough answer. Approximately, how much cash have you in your own name?" "Three thousand," Blagwin replied. Hubbard nodded seriously. "What's your income—now?" "About two hundred fifty dollars a month." "About how much are you worth?" "Twenty-five thousand." "I see. Well now, Mildred has an allowance." Hubbard explained, in one year of more than you earn in several." The strain of the cross-examination was beginning to tell on Courtland, who had never before witnessed an occasion in which he had been so directly questioned. Perspiration appeared to be overflow- OVER $500,000 in Cash and Merchandise was paid to the people in Western Pennsylvania last year, for the redemption of "Security Stamps."

Something strange, appalling, new, crept over her. After all she really hatched after all her into accepting Courtland's proposal. Hubbard's voice sounded out again, calm and paternal, yet with a tone of finality. "Blagwin, I'm sorry," he was saying, "but it can't be—in other words I cannot give my consent to your marrying my daughter. It's best, you know, for you and for her; I suppose you understand what I mean—" When Courtland sought Mildred as a last resort, he found her out on the veranda, reclining against one of the huge pillars. She did not advance to meet him as he thought she would. He felt that the world was against him, crushing him. "It's no use, Court," she finally decided, "I must do what father says and wishes, it's for our good." As Courtland good-night, he had never felt so strange in all his life and—so free. He felt that he had been tossed about at sea, and thanked heaven that he had escaped with more than his life. "After-all; they are right," he resolved, "it is for our own good." That, too, was a moment of high decision. The "Unlucky" Opal The opal has been described as "displaying the colors of all the other gems glowing together in combination." Interestingly enough, the brilliant effect of color of the jewel has nothing to do with the color of the substance of the jewel. The opal of value possesses reflection of light from the flashes within the stone. Almost always the color of the stone itself is a dull, unattractive yellow. The flashes may be of one color or several. Of course, the more colors reflected from the flashes, the more valuable. Hungary is the opal center. There have always brilliant and changeable flashes of color, even though composed of colorless material. Opals are also found in Australia, Queensland, and New South Wales in unimportant quantities. The opals are found, in mining, to be deposited in layers. Because these layers are all different colors, a great deal of care must be taken in removing them, a the angle at which they are cut may produce an entirely different effect. A cross section of an opal vein would undoubtedly look like a huge striped stone. Two and one-half centuries ago in Italy, a plague broke out at the time of the opal's popularity. One of the victims, wearing an opal-set ring, was dying. It was observed that his ring was unusually brilliant. When he died a few hours later, the opal became dull. It seemed to convince every one that the opal caused the death and thereafter the opal would be unlucky. In reality, the change in temperature caused by death affected the brilliancy of the opal, causing it to become dull. It was not until recently that the ridiculous superstition was disregarded and opals again worn. It is October's birth stone. The age of Napoleon in French history was a time of the wearing of exquisite jewelry, elaborate motifs mixed with gold, chains and a great variety of stones. Luther on Music I always loved music, whohas so s" in this art, is of good temperament, fitted for all things. We must teach music in schools. A schoolmaster ought to have skill in music, or I would not regard him; neither should we ordain young men as preachers, unless they have been well exercised in music. — Martin Luther.

About Eric Walrond ERIC WALROND is a young colored writer just starting on his career. This is his first fiction story that has captivated the imagination of the public. Of it Success Magazine said: Success takes pleasure in presenting this new, young master of vivid narrative, believing that in him eventually is the making of one of the greatest novelists and short story writers of our day. Enlighten literary amateurs, who have read amateur scripts in the original, speak with unqualified praise. "He is quite the most promising young man I have seen in a long time," says one of these critics. "I never saw better atmosphere in anything. There is nothing between him and a great future excent a fog. "The Godless City is a portrait of a modern Pompeii that even Pliny could not have equaled—bald, brilliant descriptions of men and manners—or lack of manners, whichever you choose." Walrond represents the "new school" of colored writers. He is a pioneer in the "coming generation." Of himself he says: I was born on New Market street, Georgetown, British Guiana; on December 18, 1898. At the age of eight, I remember boarding a sailing vessel bound for the West Indies—I remember that voyage distinctly. We were the only passengers on the vessel, I think, and it was a voyage that was not without its exciting moments. I slept on a bed that was OBSERVED 'GOLDEN Pair Lived Happily Wi OBSERVED 'GOLDEN SILENCE' 36 YEARS Pair Lived Happily Without Exchanging Words TWIN LAKES, Wis., April 10—That this particular spot of the U.S. A. was long the abiding place of one of the oldest of married couples is recalled by the death of the husband. Forty years ago Amos Weatherbee and his young wife built their home on a ten-acre peninsula that extended out into one of these lakes. For 36 years they sat, face to face, at meals, occupied the s... bed and went about their daily duties and yet, so far as any acquaintance positively knew, never spoke a single word to one another. There was no unadjusted quarrel between them. On the contrary, each entertained for the other an abiding effection. Mrs. Weatherbee once told a neighbor that she and Amos had not exchanged a word, more than twice, in ten years, and then only monasyllables. On the whole, the couple lived happily and comfortable. Amos' daily routine was simple. He arose each day to milk the cow, perform the usual chores, eat his breakfast, see that water and wood.

After supper he did the evening chores, cat staring into the fire, or into space until the clock struck 8, and then to bed. All this without a word. Amos' taciturnity was not confined to his heartstone. On the rare occasions when he came to the village for supplies he merely handed the shopkeeper a list of the articles wanted, paid for them and departed, speaking to no one. On the morning of the thirty-sixth anniversary of the wedding day, Amos, after breakfast, left the house and went to the porch. He did not return for four years. One late afternoon Mrs. Weatherbee sat upon the porch. A man entered the gateway. It was Amos.

A nearby PONG AGENT will cheerfully carve your PONG needs. N the night the U. S. S. Manodnock glowed like a bronze pebble on the tropic sea; slowly, slowly—like a cop on on the beat—kept vigil; guarded the gateway to the canal. All round, the water—oily, greasy, marrow-like—lapped up against the side of the huge slate-colored monitor-type body. Yonder, not thirty miles away, the city of Aspinwall slept—lay wrapped in doleful slumber. On the berth deck, the Negro cooks and firemen in their B.V.D.'s, their black bodies shining like bits of sculptured bronze, avidly strove to soften the perils of restlessness — of being down there in latitude nearly nine, and a "milyun miles from nowher." It was a terribly hot night. Beads of sweat rolled down their black, black faces. Lying in their hammocks, they sang and swore and smoked, as two crap-shooters on the deck—like an angry cat and dog—few at all other each's threats. "Born in Alabama Raised in Tennessee Ef you don't like mah peaches Don't shake mah tree" "Hmm!" "Let 'em roll dey, big boy! Let 'em roll!" "Two bits he don't five again." "Hmm!" Train: "Two bits he don't five again." "Hump!" "Dispose of him dice!" "Five!" "Dispose of him dice!" "Hump!" "Come five! Five!" "Roll 'em out dey, big boy. Roll 'em out!" In his cabin, Captain Wingate —illy in a flower-bed of silver, roses, orchids, pennants, electric fans —looked up as Ezekiel Yates, last of that tribe of black vikings, the Maroons of Jamaica, put a demi-tassee of cognac in front of him. As usual, Ezekiel, the only man' aboard who could recite you "by heart" the Songs of Solomon, was dark and solenn and grotesquely ghoulish. Black as the ace of spades, in a white sailor suit, the edge of his trousers' bottoms rolled up to his hairy calves—bare of foot, of head, his big heart, of head. "Zeek" was not at all a happy soul from which to seek solace. Half clad, lying on the picture-strewn couch, Captain Wingate swallowed the cognac and gazed at a picture on the wall—a picture of a young girl in a tennis jacket with a racquet in her hand. Nenr the picture, a port opened out on the SATURDAY. AGE FACE OLESS An Amazing Tale Iniquity Overwhel By Eric Walrond d, by Successa Magusine, New York.

Through it Captain Wingate, who had been, lying there gazing at his daughter's picture, thought he w the shadow of a star rise and burst and fall. He looked again. Again the star—a rain of stars—crimsoned the sky. "Zeek!" Captain Wingate cried, getting up and going to the port. "What is that out there—a celebration?" "No," Zeek said slowly, "it ain't no celebration." Across the ocean a wall of ebony rose to the sky. There, like a streak of gold, a sky rocket illuminated it. "For God's sake, Zeek, don't stand there like aummy!" Open your mouth! Speak What is it? Did he humming a song he used to sing wife, he was a Jamaica "Bedwidite," went about the chores of the cubin, seemingly unmindful of the Captain's voice. Snatching a pair of eye-glasses, the Captain rushed on deck and gazed towards Aspinwall on the skyline—and the mysterious crimsoning of the clouds. Behind, him, like a blooming apparition, Ezekiel's naked feet pattered up to him. "Aspinwall — wiped out again —that's what it means." Bout time. In 1894—that was first. Again in 1906. And now—it's time." Turning, Captain Wingate stared into the Negro's gargoyle-like face. The terrible whiteness of his great big eyes in the black, black night caused the officer to shudder. Again the Maroon started to go back in to the cabin, as unconcerned as the strangeness of his words was cryptic. Exasperated at the Negro's weird communication, Captain Wingate, frowning sharply, arrested him with the sternness of his voice. "What nonsense are you talking?" "It's down in the Big Book—way back in Preston's day. God's doings, that's what it is. Every ten or twelve years the city's got to be cleaned—wiped out—destroyed. A plague—a fire—something, God's work. Back in 1894 I got caught in it—lost everything I had. Then it burned to cinders—burned like a lake of white lime. Not a thing was left. Just acres of smoking ashes—ashes of flesh—ashes of bore—ashes of good. White—all white! Z got to be clean." In the still night all that was heard was the dipping of the bow—and of a sudden Captain Wingate's barking sardonic laugh. "That's all right, Zeek.

It is easily seen that this point is brought out in order Who Are America's Ten Greatest Negroes?

The opinions of the several Judges are made an interesting part of the series. THIRD INSTALLMENT SYNOPSIS Four luminaries have been named: GEORGE WASHINGTON CARVER, F. R.

Why not make this white woman of the same standard as Jim or bring Jim down to the same standard as the woman. This pattern plays the fair, somehow the author would rather work out this theory of his own and give that time-worn and absolutely wrong impression that all black men are attracted to white women simply because they are white regardless of who they what they want and who they are more and more truthful insinuation.

However, I wonder if W. O'Neill knows of a single ease in real life that represents the case in his play? The intelligent, high-typed Negro is as particular and as fastidious about the selection of women as the high-classed white men, and if the author would take time to investigate and make a study of the situation he would get some of the biggest surprises of his life among which would be the fact that women are thousands and thousands of white women upon whom black men would not even wipe their proverbial feet. In the last part of the second scene, in the second act when Ella tries to murder Jula, the author begins a masterly portrayal of a woman who has begun to lose her mind and who stage by stage becomes the victim of a murder by the end of the play she is a painful and object example of mental delinquency. In fact, in one part of the story she is a raving maniac. Of course, this is done to impress upon the white race how terrible a thing amalgamation is and the awful results in store for those who are white women.

In the closing scene of the play her pitiful maniacal conversation with or rather to the Congo mask gives her the final opportunity to express her vindictive inborn hatred and gives her insight and insulting names. Imagine a woman who is supposed to be much in love with her husband rejoicing at his failure. Then, too, there has been so much objection raised at the very idea of Ella kissing Jim's hand that I cannot close my criticism without touching on her husband. Well, will it be that man is her husband, isn't he? However, the most significant thing is that again Mr. O'Neill fails to make his play ring true. Whoever heard of a wife continually kissing her husband's hand? How many wives in real life do this? Ella should be her husband, and she should be her hand, and if the author lacked the nerve or moral courage to write and produce this play as it should have been written, then he should not have written it at all. As the play now stands in its effort to represent a page from life, it is in my opinion, a most perfect example of being it being as I have already stated, a most perfect example of brilliant and damaging subtleness, it is worthless and can accomplish no good. Theatrical casts of racial mixture are perfectly all right if the authors and producers wish them and can see, but no race of people should be offended or insulted by or through the vehicle that is produced. So, I will close by repeating "What is or was Mr. O'Neil's motive in writing this most unusual and ridiculous drama?

TOKIO, April 10—Most aged aristocrats, and men who acquired wealth during the war, are deeply interested in the report that Dr. Asahi, of the Imperial University of Klushi, has discovered a truly potent hair restorer. Dr. Asahi, a scientist of reputation, asserts that as a preliminary test he has used his restorer on 120 men whose crowns were as bald as their palms. As the result hair sprouted plentifully on the heads of 60 of the 120 and, remarkable to me, the men who had not thatched them in their youth. Besides, thanks to the beneficent effect of this treatment, the men on whom hair grew gained in weight, even if the new hair was imponderable.

Two men, Robert and Henry Clark, were trapped in the burning building. Both hung by their hands from a window, still the second floor, until the heat of the flames forced them to release their hold. Robert dropped to the street and escaped with burns on his hands and slight bruises. Henry managed to grasp an insulated wire and, working hand over hand, reached an adjoining building. Mr. Ingram told motorcycle patrolmen Coons and Hinkle of Mrs. Steele's plight. They rushed into the house and found her almost overcome in her apartment and carried taken to the home of a neighbor.

The estate consists of seventeen acres of land and several thousand dollars. The Married Man. A married man falling into misfortune is more apt to retrieve his situation in the world than a single one, chiefly because his spirits are soothed and retrieved by domestic encarcements, and his self-respect kept alive by finding that altogether all abread be darkness and humiliation, yet there is a little world of love at home over which he is a monarch—Jeremy Taylor.

Andy Bishop-Cleo Desmond At Gibson's New Dunbar Andy Bishop-Cleo Desmond At Gibson's New Dunbar PHILADELPHIA, April 10—I have just finished reading a story in which this phrase occurs: "It's a funny old world if you keep your courage and a sense of humor." But, alas! so few of us are endowed with the twin attributes, courage and humor. And it is of that I am thinking mostly as I set down the following: In this strange melodrama of life we hear a great deal, yes, a very great deal about "The holy bonds of matrimony," and we seldom hear anyone mention what should be considered just as holy when it occurs outside the pale of matrimony, as when it has the temporal sanction of the clergy; and that is "motherhood." Our oil friend, Bill Shakespeare, says: "She never yet was foolish who was fair, for even her folly helped her to an heir." And we all know that "Bill" was seldom, if ever, wrong. If there is one thing, one ill that flesh is heir to that deserves our forgiveness; it is "unmarried motherhood." Who is there among us who has the right to point the finger of scorn at the so-called downfall of an innocent girl? Almost always it is traceable to the beastiness of some man. In turn, the innocent girl does that which no man is capable of doing; she creates and gives life in perpetuation of the race. We are all conceived in pleasure, but it is only the woman who knows and understands the secret of life to its full extent. She must be likened unto mother nature, of which we are all part and parcel. Why do we not realize that it is all Freedman's A Discusses Freedman's Association Discusses Race Problem PHILADELPHIA, Pa., April 10 —The 24th year meeting of the Society of Friends (Orthodox), which game to an end after a week's conference in the old meeting houses at Fourth and Arch streets, was attended by more than a thousand friends from all parts of the state, New Jersey, Delaware and parts of Maryland. International problems constituted one of the main concerns of this season. In America the race problem and law enforcement were considered as vitally important.

April 10—To recover $28.80, alleged to be due him on an agreement involving Tramp Boy, a well-known race horse on the Pennsylvania tracks and fair circuits, suit was filed in the Court of Common Pleas here by Howard Blackston, of Doylestown, against George B. McLaughlin, of this place owner of the horse. It is alleged that Blackstone was Tramp Boy's trainer. According to the statement of claim filed in the suit, Tramp Boy was an unknown quantity in a Detroit stable before 1922. It was agreed between McLaughlin and Blackstone that the horse be shipped East, and that if the steed made good on the track Blackstone was to receive $500 less $135 advanced to Blackstone to bring the horse to Doylestown. The horse made great records during the last two years, and the plaintiff alleges that he has never received the promised sum. He also White To Enter Suit Against Owners of Bldg. PHILADELPHIA. Pa., April 10—State Boxing Commissioner Charles Fred White, has removed his real estate office from the Jefferson building, 1015 Chestnut St., to the new Bankers' Trust building, Juniper and Walnut streets. In his new location and with his business connections Mr. White will be able to look after his clients' interest to much greater advantage than formerly. In a statement to a Courier representative Mr. White said that he and his associates were entering suit against the owners of the Jefferson building for damages to their business. a part of God's great plan, the primordial plan of the universe, which continues upward and onward regardless of the conventions that would be reformers and the nightlier than thou set up from time to time for the guidance of fewer lesser mortals?

In "The Unmarried Mother," the forth-coming attraction at Gibson's New Dunbar, next week, you will have ample opportunity to see this question threshed out to your entire satisfaction. This wonderful play, which is to mark the return of "The Lafayette Players," is one you cannot afford to miss. In atmospheric force, emotional intensity, spiritual revelation, and penetrating psychology, it is far above anything they have thus far essayed. Those who like comedy interspersed with their drama will find this play a rare treat. We are all anxious to know how these girls work out the problem that confronts them upon becoming mothers. Come and see how this girl solves her problem how this epiphany lifesaves lives, if it happens with whom she comes in contact.

They walked from the train floor to Filbert street through an exit seldom used by passengers. Their escape was discovered when the guards checked-up on their charges. The missing prisoners are Harry Valentine and Waldron Harmon. Immediately after their escape the police and detectives were notified and set out through the central section of the city to hunt for them. Thirty-two prisoners were in the group. They were in charge of Deputy Sheriff Shay and several guards. When the prison van arrived at the station, crowds collected and the guards, fearing that some of the convicts might escape, tried to disperse the spectators. The prisoners were taken from the van on Filbert street and led to the train floor, where a check-up was made. The count revealed that the two youths has escaped. The only clue to the direction the fugitives had taken was furnished by a station employee, who said he noticed two men walking close together through the crowd toward Filbert street. Ex-Policeman Is Sentenced PHILADELPHIA, Pa., April 10—William Burwell, a former policeman, attached to the Germantown station, was sentenced to nine months in the county prison by Judge Gordon, in quarter sessions court after he had been convicted of charges of assault and battery on Lee Pierce, of 49 West Duval Street. Pierce is a next door neighbor of Burwells. In sentencing Burwell, Judge Gordon said that his position as a policeman did not give him the power to assault citizens on his own violation. He was discharged from the force on charges preferred against him by Pierce.

Fire, starting immediately after the building caved in, razed both structures. Police say they discovered two 25 gallon stills and a quantity of moonshine in jugs while searching for the fire after the firemen had subdued the blaze. Furniture and the personal effects of the several families living in the houses were destroyed at a loss of $5,000.

He displayed maps indicating how close America is to Europe and said it is a shame that the average American school boy gets a false idea of geography from text-books showing the North and South American continents in a state of isolation, which does not exist. The maps clearly showed that it is a shorter ride from Brazil to Europe than from Brazil to the United States, and he said that Uses Revolver To Sound Fire Alarm PHILADELPHIA, Pa., April 10 —A fire started in the home of James Green, 922 South Twelfth street, when a curtain caught from a gas light on the second floor. Fearing that his home was about to be destroyed before he could summon aid, Mr. Green hit on a novel way of turning in an alarm. He stepped to the window and discharged a volley of revolver shots, which drove pedestrians to a scramble for safety. In a few minutes a dozen patrolmen, well meaning citizens and kindly disposed neighbors had flocked to the house, expecting to be right on hand at a murder. James put them to work and they quickly extinguished the flames. While they were working, a company responded to an alarm that was turned in, but the firemen found their work was done before they arrived. Only one room was damaged.

Mrs. Catherine Magill and Lillian Fairfax are the occupants of 859 North Watts street. Both were out when the disaster occurred. Both dwellings were of brick, three stories high, and stood in the middle of the bloom of the crumbling walls and the concentration of police and fire apparatus in the vicinity attracted thousands of spectators.

Speaking of Europe coming or going, Mr. Zeublin said that it all depends on whether another big war comes along. If it does, he emphatically pronounced the doom of the whole white race as a dominant factor in the world. In contrast to this he referred to the 4000-year-old Chinese civilization and said that it is quite possible for it to survive after the occidental has become nothing but a memory. He dwelt on the blindness of the Italian statesman of today, saying that the League of Nations is the best friend Italy could possibly get. One good thing that came out of the Versailles treaty was the opening up of the Dardanelles, he claimed. Wilson said was, "Let us make the Monroe Doctrine apply in every part of the world."

After the rooms were emptied, nauseating fumes coming from the dingy little cellar nearly asphyxiated the marshall and his men. An investigation in the cellar disclosed a miniature distillery with a hundred gallon automatic still going through a series of barrel head burrs of mash was thunderling like a muffer cut-out on an automobile. Innumerable little kegs were scattered thereabouts, all containing a strange liquid, the head of which was seven feet, making it impossible for a tall person to stand full length. The still was surcharged with a blackness made possible by the place being air-tight, which was necessary to keep the fumes from escaping. Large spatulas that accommodate large parts and complete outfit and paraphernalia for manufacturing whisky, was confiscated by the authorities.

CHICAGO, Ill., April 10.—"She may have been your wife, but she is mine now," declared Joe Watson to Joseph McClanahan. Sunday night, as he thrust a 38 caliber revolver in the husband's side, and abducted his wife, Mrs. Ruth McClanahan. Williams hailed a taxicab standing at the curb and they whirled away into the darkness. as he realized that his wife had literally been stolen from him. Mrs. McClanahan left her home early Sunday night to visit her sister in the Mecca Apartment building at 34th and State streets. McClanahan agreed to take there at 10 p. m. when he reached the building. McClanahan found his wife there in company with a number of other men. When he started to leave for home with his wife, McClanahan says he noticed Williams and another man following him. "He passed me twice, and then walked up to my side, and drawing his gun on me, ordered me to give my wife up." Start Search. McClanahan immediately called a taxicab and set out in chase of the kidnapper and his wife, but they had disappeared in the distance. He then noticed a police who took him to the street; for four hours they searched the streets in vain. He then began a systematic search of houses where he knew his wife had friends and which she frequented. At 3 a. m. he located the pair in a house at 3530 W. 10th St., bedroom, and both were thinly clad. The Stanton avenue police were called, and immediately arrested both Watson and Mrs. McClanahan. Fired $100. McClanahan told the story of the kidnapping and subsequent discovery of the judge Bugue, of the Wabash avenue court Monday morning. After hearing the evidence Judge Bugee fined the pair $100 and costs each. Mrs. McClanahan made no defense and did not deny that she submitted to the kidnapping without pro Woman Leaves Mate; Father Shoots Lover NEW YORK, April 10—That the daughter of Martin Wright, white, a seventy-year-old cripple, living with his family at 338 Bergstreet, Newark, was married to a colored man, was told the police Monday by Wright and his wife, who shot the fatal shooting by the former of Edmond Hellock in their home. So far there are two, possible causes for the homicide. One is that the father resented the fact that his daughter, Mrs. Mina Egb., has deserted her colored husband, Lloyd Egbert, to live with his man killed by that Wright man and reenactment to get attention and sympathy and that this caused a dislike for Hallock, who is also white. Wright shot Hallock as he chased it through his room Sunday. Had his nerve not failed him, it is evident that he would have killed his daughter also. Police stated that Egbert, the colored husband of Wright's daughter, had served two years in prison forlarceny and that the woman had served a term in Clinton Reformatory. Wright was arraigned yesterday on a homicide charge and his wife and daughter are being held as material witnesses. HARLEM DRIFTER The Drifter notes an unusually large number of pseudo "bankers" in Harlem's Wall street. He is also a master of manipulation and manipulation of large sums of money. This new field of "high finance" known as the clean-up clearing game, offers fabulous odds of $100,000 to one pen. Staggering odds, indeed. The game is prohibited by law, but the law is powerless to stop it and the game goes merrily on. This get-rich-quick Wellington method has even little children spared. The game is expensive, expensive automobile along Seventh and Lenox avenues as a result of "hitting" the banker. The "banker" is more or less a phantom person; a dead man insists on having his good names inscribed on his great names of business men. The Drifter has discovered that even high society people stop to the alluring odds offered by this skin game. Tates of woe fly fast hither and thither every day and every holiday, that the "banker" is bankrupt and cannot pay off, etc. The business deaths in this new field of high finances exceeds any other business in any line. The game is so fascinating and is winning more than every day of the daily papers give the clearing house statement front page prominence.

April 20. Richardson was arrested when circumstantial evidence pointed to him as the slayer of his pretty 19-year-old daughter early in February. At a preliminary trial two weeks ago, Judge Musgrove of Sykesville, held him for action of the grand jury. Richardson is apparently without evidence in the community and friends have hired the best known white criminal lawyer in the county to defend him. On the other hand, white residents believe him guilty of the crime, although Richardson denies that the girl found clubbed to death and brutally assaulted.

It is not too much to say that it answers every argument that has ever been advanced by enemies of the race. It is masterly style, so sleeping the ground entirely from under the feet of those who claim superiority as based on color. In its pages all the most debated points such as the relative mentality, physical and facial beauty, sex and health, honesty of the two races are discussed and compared, as well as politics, the slavery of white people in Colonial America and other parts of the world, inter-marriage, cannibalism, ancient Negro civilizations, attraction and repulsion of the two races, lynching, all dealt with in a gripping, interesting argument between a highly educated Negro senator and a highly educated Peabody porter on a car bound for California. This book sweeps the circle of all the social sciences, working them all up into a presentation so clear that the simplest can read and understand and yet is so fortified by proofs from the greatest scientists and thinkers of all times that they is no joint in its importance. It is the most learned adversary of the Negro may enter.
