WomanNamed Delegate-At Large In N.Y.
Mrs. Fayerweather Seek Race Justice—Active In Relief Work.
NEW YORK. April 21 — Mrs. L. N. Fayeweather, first race woman to be elected delegate at-large to the Republican National Convention, hopes to persuade the Republicans to adopt a plank for the enforcement of the thirteenth and fourthteen amendments to the constitution. She believes in the eighteenth amendment and its enforcement, but she says the Negro in the South must have political justice if he is to remain true to the faith of Abraham Lincoln.
Mrs. Fayeweather lives in a two story brick house at 1055 Park Place, Brooklyn, and is the wife of a retired real estate operator reputed to be well-to-do. Active in Race Relief
She was a resident of New Orleans. After attending school there she went Boston and studied at the Emerson School of Oratory and the Boston Conservatory of Music. She has been active for years in relief organizations and church affairs for the welfare of the negroes of Brooklyn, and is treasurer of the Empire State Federation, comprising the colored women's clubs of the State.
"We need a settlement on school for the young people," she said, where we can teach them the stories of the great men and women of our race—Booker T. Washington, Phyllis Wheatley and the others, know about Abraham Lincoln, that it was the Republican party that freed the slaves, but we are not taught our own history in the
public Schools
Mrs. Fayweather has called a meeting of colored women of Brooklyn for April 26, in which she will organize for the Presidential campaign. In August she encounters to attend a convention in Chicago of the National Colored Women's Federation, representing 500,000 women, in the hopes of raising them to political activity.
MRS. GREEN SAYS MATE ABUSED HER
Doctor Out On Bail To
Await Grand Jury Action — Couple, Well
Known in East, Married
Since 1915.
NEWARK, N. J., April 24.
—Dr. William H. Green of 230 Bank street was released on $500 bail last week by the fourth precinct police court to await grand jury action on a charge of assault and battery preferred by his wife, Mrs. Ruth Green.
Mrs. Green told the court that on April 8 her husband knocked her down twice and then dragged her up the stairs by the hair, she exhibited a handful of hair, which she said he had pulled from her head.
Finally succeeding in getting away Mrs. Green said she left the house. A few nights later Mrs. Green said the doctor walked into a house where she was visiting at 23 Scott street and on her retiring to go for a talk with him, he grasped her wrist with such force that it required five persons to tear him away.
The couple were married in Washington January 2, 1915, and have since been residents of Newark, where Dr. Green has built a large medical practice.
Mrs. Green, young, petite, college brook, attempted to establish her right to separate maintenance from Dr. Green here in 1916. At the time the matter was in court she recited to the court a long account of various treatments accorded her by her husband. However, she was unsuccessful in her attempt to gain freedom.
Called upon last Saturday by a reporter for this panel, Dr. Green proceeded not to make a statement preceding the case. The account of the court proceedings, however, represents only one side of the matter.
Attempts to see Mrs. Green were unsuccessful.

By FLOYD J. CALVIN With only a few days left before his case for defrauding through the U. S. mails will come up anew in the New York Circuit Court of Appeals, Marcus Garvey, in Pittsburgh on a five-night speaking engagement, said Monday evening that the possibility of his serving the five-year sentence imposed by Judge Julian W. Mack last June is the least of his worries.

Sitting up in bed with a bandage around his head covering his inflamed left eye, and guarded by two uniformed officers of the African Legion, Mr. Garvey appeared at once pompous and pathetic in his temporary headquarters at No. 1325 Webster avenue. At first he was cordial and reserved, but as he started talking his enthusiasm kindled and he finally warmed into an expressive and jovial mood that was only tempered by bursts of passionate earnestness and excessive emphasis on points he wanted especially made plain.
"So far we have spent $50,000 on the trial," he said. "We shall continue to fight it to the highest tribunal of the land. If we lose out in the coming appeal, we will then go before the Supreme Court of the United States."
When asked for what specific reasons he was not satisfied with the verdict returned at the first trial last summer, he said:
Wants Justice
"We don't believe we got justice. We believe I was convicted through prejudice and misrepresentation. But I am not blaming the white man. I didn't matter to him whether I was convicted or not. I blame envious and jealous Negroes who sought in every way they could discredit me and my organization. All we want is justice, and we are going to fight so frankly at it."
George Gordon Battle, a white Southerner, is engaged as Mr. Garvey's chief counsel.
"What has been the reaction since your trial on both your organization and the public," Mr. Garvey was asked.

NEW YORK, April 24—William H. Tyers, 54, famous musician who had traveled extensively abroad in England and Germany, died here last week of double pneumonia. Mr. Tyers was prominent in fraternal circles. He formerly lived in Jersey City, N. J.
American Negro Given Credit For Jazz Music
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., April 24—Credit was given to the American Negro for "vital new force in National Music" here last week by Dr. Yeopold Stokowski, conductor of the Philadelphia Orchestra, when he said in the last of his series of musical talks in the foyer of the Academy of Music that "In America is the greatest musical hope of the world. There is a ferment of new things. We have this thing called jazz with us. It is a real force. The Negroes of America have played a large part in the change. They go against all musical convention and what is considered the proper things. They are not bound by tradition."
Prince Of Wales In "Black-Tan" Cabaret
Prince Of Wales In "Black-Tan" Cabaret
PARIS, April 24—The Prince of Wales danced until dawn on Montmartre again last Friday. The dance, organized by Kis Royal Highness was run by an American Negro named Mitchell; Blacks and whites mingled freely, Negroes dancing with white women.
Crowds stormed the doors of the cabaret when the word went around Montmartre that "Le Prince De Galles" was there. White folkes waved 500 franc notes, trying to bribe the doorman to let them in.

Introduce Billto Erect Monument
Representative Wood
Urges Measure For
$50,000 War Memorial
To Soldier Dead.
WASHINGTON, D. C. April 24
In the House of Representatives
6. April 15, Representative Wood introduced a resolution "to create a commission to secure plans and designs for and to erect a monument or memorial building in the city of Washington to the memory of the Negro soldiers and sailors who fought in the wars of our country and the late World War."
This action comes as a result of agitation and long working and waiting on the part of the National Memorial association of this city, of which Ferdinand D. Lee is president.
From Bunker Hill to the Argonne covers a period in the history of the world that can never be effaced. The first blood shed on American soil in the revolt against English tyranny was that of a Negro. From that time until now the record of the Negro in the army and navy has never been questioned. Their deeds of bravery, their loyalty, and patriotism should be immortalized in statues and memorials as are those of other peoples.
We feel that every loyal American should be willing to assist this great event. J is a tribute we owe and an honor we lay the foundation of our morale and financial support in the erection of a Great Memorial Building, not only to our living and dead heroes, but a great educational temple where statues of the great men and women of our race may be placed to give inspiration hope and pride to the youth of our land.
It was with this idea in mind that the National Memorial Associ-
Gas Firm Prepares For Moving Day Rush
The annual moving day makes heavy demands on hauling firms, storage companies, expert packers, cleaners, painters—and the gas man. Gas must be turned off at the old address and be available promptly at the new home to allow cooking, lighting and perhaps a little heating on the first day in.
The People Natural Gas Company established a record last year on the rush days of the moving season. On April 30 they effected 791 connections and disconnections; on May 1, 934 connections and disconnections, and on May 2, 490 connections and disconnections.
The Peoples Company is edger to make as good a showing' this year during the moving rush, and 'has asked its patrons to advise promptly the day they expect to move.

CHISUM Charges
Alleged Suit Brings Forth Bitter Reply
Mays, In Counter Attack,
Hints Chisum May Have
Been Employed by Guilman
Company.
CHICAGO, Ill., April 21—
The Mays-Chisum controversy,
waxes warm! As the Pullman
porter organizer and the vet-
eran newspaperman exchange
words there is much wailing
and grashing of teeth. R. L.
Mays' assertion that he would
sue Melvin J. Chisum for $10,
000 damages, alleging defamation
of character has been met with
a bitter retort from the field agent
of the National Negro Press Association.
Mr. Chisum declared in a statement to a Pittsburgh Courier reporter:
"This writer has made the statement that Mr. Mays is a frequenter of buffer flats; that he plays the painted belles and rendezvous in their guilded haunts. If it becomes necessary (and this writer will consider it ominently necessary if Mr. Mays is a guest) this writer will call names and count noses, will give street and number and location of Mr. Mays line of flats. And more, this writer will also provide the dates and days and this uplifter's companions upon exactly eight consecutive occasions which stand out above the regular." While Mays, in an interview,
While stays, in an interview,
says:
Mr. Melvin J. Chisum whose attachment to the Depriest office was a mystery seemingly to the regular clerks, but who was constantly with Depriest and who sent out the Pullmanized story for which I am suing him since every word as he sent it was a lie, had so much Pullman porter property and 'dissipated Pullman porter money on his mind at the time of his scoop that I am wondering IF CHISUM HAD ANY PULLMAN COMPANY MONEY IN THE LIBELOUS STATEMENT TO THE PAPERS."
Chisum makes Statement
Mr. Chisum makes the following statement:
"On Friday night, April 4, a telephone call came to Mr. Oscar Depriest about 11:30 asking that he call at the Harrison street station prepared to get Mr. R. L. Mays out of jail on bond. Mr. Depriest and I went to the house looking for Mr. Mays to get him out, but the desk sergeant informed us that no one was booked under that name." After much milling about South Chicago we found the officers who had arrested Mr. Mays and they assured us that he was at the Harrison street station in safe keeping. But the officers for reasons of their own, did not advise us that Mr. Mays had registered under a name more fancy than his own, so we tried again, but still the sergeant insisted that there was no one booked under the name of Mays.
"Saturday morning, April 5, Mr. DePriest put a man on the job early who finally returned about 2:30 in the afternoon and advised us that Mr. Mays was at the station house (Continued on Page 2, Col 3)

statements can be verified by any
person who is interested by writing
to Mr. Perry Parker, the Wabash
branch of the ¥. M. C. A., Chicago.
Mr, Parker is the president of the
Pullman Porters’ Beneficial Associa-
tion, an organization with upward of
three hundred thousand dollars in
its treasury and each of its officers
has a real human existence and each
one is or has. been an honest-to-
goodness Pullman portre.
| Mr. Mays as a Mistake Maker.
«The first mistake Mr. Mays made
when he got arrested, was to tell
the police his name wasJohn Smith,
that prevented Mr., DePriest trom
being able to get him out of jail.
“The second mistake was, a3 soon
as he got out of jail, on’ Monday
was to undertake to frighten edi-
fors of newspapers from publishing
the facts of his arrest. He ought to
have known, that the arrest of per-
sons of prominence, be they shicks,
grailers or uplifters is news with
a tig. n, and there.is no denying
the fact’ that Mr. Mays is a prom-
inent man. Very prominent getting
the hard earnings of Pullman por-
ters who are too busy to find out
that he is fooling them out of their
money.
“The third mistake was when Mr.
Mays insinuated that this writer
was an ex-convict, his use of the
[ror ‘alleged’ let’ him out, but. it
was a hint just the same that this
writer had done time. This writer
has been in the husiness of expos-
ing scheming grafters, highbinders
and moral reprobates for more than
20 years, This writer has been sued
lit times for libel by this same lit-
‘ter of rats and he has never done
ja day in any penitentiary for his ex-
{hosing of the vast crowd of fakers
{in eight different states.
‘Mr, Mays as Muzzler
| “Now it is Mr. Mays’ turn to try
his hand on the Old Man of the
Fourth Estaze. And for his informa-
tion this writer has an engagement
| with “certain business men in Chi-
cago at 3139 South State street the
afternoon of May 2 anc this write
usually keeps engagements. So Mr
Mays must not pretend that he wil
fail to start his suit for all tha
|money he is going to need befor:
the grand jury of Cook county get:
through with him at its next sitting
Mr. Mays’ Knowledge of the Pull
man System
“Recently Mr. Mays has sent ou
two releases, stating that he was th
ts a Hreseription for
Colds, Grippe, Dengue Fever,
Constipation, Bilious .Head-
aches and Malarial Fever.

Ritz May Dance
The Ritz Club, composed of students and graduates of local high schools, seems to have set a precedence in the quality of its affairs, both in originality and unique features.
While the spectacular "Mid Year Grad Prom" is still fresh in our memories they now break forth with an affair, of the sort, we have never dreamed of, one which bids well to bo the social classic of the season.
We shall be brought back forcibly to the days of the chivalrous princes, and beautiful maidens, back of the days when fairies performed their feats of magic most gorgeously. The affair shall breathe the life of Old London. Kenneth D. Edwards, art director, of the Ritz Club, is leaving nothing undone that will add to a real evening in "Old Londontown."
The scene of action will be Labor
Lyceum. The time May 23.

Local Players in Baltimore
To an enthusiastic audience that taxed the capacity of the Douglas Theatre, Baltimore, Md., Friday evening, March 28, the Imperial Art Players of Pittsburgh, Pa., assisted by the Morgan Dramatic club, presented the historical and forceful drama, "Damon and Pythias," under the direction of Mrs. Venzella Jones. This vehicle gave the participants an unusual opportunity for display of their rare talent. The work of the players won round after round andNorman applause. The title roles were enacted by Paul L. Reilly and Norman Hardy, respectively. Mr. Bank's characterization of Damon was one-deserving of more than ordinary mention. His interpretation of the statesman and champion of his people, coupled with clear enunciation and intelligent reading of his lines made his work thoroughly enjoyable. With serious study we predict for him a brilliant future. Mr. Hardy's enactment of the role of Pythias, the devoted and sacrificing friend of Damon, was one of the outstanding features of the play. At times, indeed, so realistic and true to human nature was his acting one was fairly transported to the earlier days of old Sicily. His work with Calanthe and Dionysius in the prison scene deserves applause, for here tears to the eyes of max that brought tears to the eyes of both with Edwards as Dionysius, the haughty and domineering tyrant, who was later won by the sincere friendship of Pythias to Damon; was a clever piece of acting. His fine facial expression, coupled with his keen dramatic ability, made his work highly commendable, the Senate scene giving him the opportunity for real intense acting.
Procles, a soldier general, was splendidly executed by Jes. Ellison. Philistius, the president of the senate, a small but important part, was well executed by Wm. Minor. Luculus, a pitilable but devoted slave to Damon, was neatly executed by Gilmore Williams, whose acting met with the heartiest response from the audience. One of the high spots of the performance was Calanthe, the affliated of Pythias, portrayed by Mrs. Vernzella Jones, which was the work of a genius. With a voice full of pathos, such as one only hears from an artist of the first rank, blended with refined-emotional gifts and keen percept of acting, was the rendition of this character by Mrs. Jones—never at any time losing the interest nor failing to impress her hearers of ability. Hermona, wife of Damon, portrayed Miss Mary Beckett, and mother of Calanthe, by Mrs. Lucille Buckner, were the sweetest enactments of modesty. Their sincerity captivated the entire audience. Wm. Banks, Jr., gave a finished and appreciative rendition of the small son of Damon, displaying much ability. In the interpolated soono the dancing of Miss Beckett was splendidly executed, displaying much technique and poise. The aria from "Samson and Dellahl," sung by Mrs. Buckner, won much merited applause. Singers, Greek dancers, senators, soldiers, citizens—contributed much to maté a finished and artistic performance.
Bishop Jones Guest
Bishop Joshua Jones, who spent Easter in Pittsburgh as the house guest of Rev. and Mrs. R. A. Adams, left for Wilberforce Monday evening. A receptoin was given in his honor Monday evening prior to his departure for Wilberforce. The guests numbered about 50. Bishop Jones preached at the Easter morning service at Brown Chapel A. M. E. Church.

Harmony Club of Greensburg Gives Elaborate Banquet
CLASSIFIED
The Harmony Club of Greensburg, Pa., held their second annual banquet and reception in the new armory at the University of Pennsylvania, which was a nery, brilliant affair.
The dance hall was beautifully decorated in the club colors—blue and white—with a string of baloons on each side. The moonlight was imitated with a light set in a huge coldrum flower which added much to the screen of the moonlight waltz. Palms and ferns adorned the center of the dance hall where the orchestra was seated. Two beautiful floor lamps on each side of the piano also added much to the scenery of the moonlight waltz, which was echoed through the soft melody "Sleep." Two soft rugs on the floor completed the orchestra stand.
The banquet hall was beautifully decorated with tables arranged in the form of an H which seated 150

West's Title At Stake In Coming Penn Relay Events
Supremacy Of Wash-Jeff Star Threatened By Levi, Indian 'Phenom,' and Jones
WASHINGTON, Pa., April 24.—Levi, the Indian star from Haskell Institute, and John Paul Jones of DuPauw are the men most feared in the pentathlon at the Penn games Friday and Saturday by Charles West, the celebrated Negro captain of the Washington and Jefferson College (white) track team and the present holder of the five-event championship.
present in the University of Pitt University, Plansky of Georgetown, Newton of Florida and one or two others are being put forward as possible winners of the pentathlon at Philadelphia. But West is not worrying so much about their chances as he is over the form, that the two westerners may display.
West happens to know more about Jones than he does about the others, as the midwest performer is under the tutelage of Harold Erickson famed Minnesota flash of the Washington and Jefferson football team of a few years ago, who is now coaching at DePaw. Jones won the pentathlon at the winter meet conducted by the Illinois A. A., and is regarded as the most formidable man from the west in the Penn games, unless it is Levi Erickson has written to friends here frequently of the prowess of his protege, and familiar as he is with West's ability, he believes that his pupil will defeat the Washington and Jefferson captain, or force West to records that he heretofore has never recorded.
advantage, as the best Levi has done is said to be 167 feet, while West has frequently, in competition, hurled the spear 170 feet, and is said to be going better every day. In the bread jump, the Indian giant has leaped 22 feet 4 inches, which is a trifle better than West's best record.
West's biggest advantage in the coming pentathlon is expected to be in the 1500 meter race and in the 200 meter race. The Red and Black captain holds the W. & J. record in the quarter-mile and he is just as good at the 200 meter distance and has been sprinting this spring better than he ever did before. He won the 1,500 meter race at Penn's year ago and says he likes that race better than any other. His cross country work all winter is expected to fit him particularly for the long race.
West has secured a pretty good line on the ability of the Indian star, and thinks if he lives up to his western reputation, he will be one of the toughest opponents he has. Levi has been described in epistles received here as a giant standing six feet three inches in height and weighing 200 pounds. His marks if they are genuine, also indicate that he is likely to win more than one event in the pentathlon. He has thrown the discuss 136 feet and eight inches, which is considerably farther than any distance negotiated by West, this event being the weakest in the champion's repertoire. In the javelin, West has an

advantage, as the best Levi has done is said to be 167 feet, while West has frequently, in competition, hurled the spear 170 feet, and is said to be going better every day. In the broad jump, the Indian giant has leaped 22 feet 4 inches, which is a trifle better than West's best record. West's biggest advantage in the coming pentathlon is expected to be in the 1500 meter race and in the 200 meter race. The Red and Black captain holds the W. & J. record in the quarter-mile and he is just as good at the 200 meter distance and has been sprinting this spring better than he ever did before. He won the 1,500 meter race at Penn's year ago, and says he likes that race better than any other. His cross country work all winter is expected to fit him particularly for the long race and because he is an admittedly good finisher in competition.
While West is sharing the spotlight, because of his national title, barely any less interest will center around the efforts of two other Negro stars, both listed as Olympic possibilities. These two men, Dehart Hubbard of the University of Michigan and Albert Washington of the University of Illinois, are expected to capture first place in the events in which they are entered. Hubbard already holds the United States amateur record for the broad jump and, along with this event, captured the hop-step-and-jump last year. He is expected to duplicate his last year's feat again this season and is a surety on the Olympic team to represent the United States.
"A Pocket Edition of Howard Drew"
Thus has Albert Washington been
acclaimed by those who know him
best and have seen this king of the
cinderpath in action. Already joint
holder of the world's 70-year indoor
dash record. Washington is being
tout 1 as the only man who will
ever challenge the great speed of
Charlie Pathlock, and the entire
country is watching anxiously to see
what he will be able to accomplish.
Payne Hailed As 'Wonder Athlete'
ROANOKE, Va., April 24—Members of the 1924 basket ball squad given their letters at Harri-
ne High School here last week. Those who received letters were Capt. Thomas Payne, W. Steptoe,
R. Burrell, C. Palmer, W. Dillard,
R. Burwell, and C. Toles. Dillard was elected captain of the 1925 agg-
gregation. Payne, who is also captain of the track team, has been hailed as Harrison's "wonder athlete." In addition to track and basket ball, Payne is also a wizard on the diamond and gridiron. He has captained the base ball team, playing short, and is one of the greatest halfbacks ever developed at the school.

Beckwith And Gray Hit Home Runs as Grays Win Opener From Finkelhors "Lefty" Williams Twirls No-Hit Ball For Six Innings - Walker and Washington Star At Bat.
With Lefty Williams pitching no-hit ball for six innings, and with the great Gray offensive, led by "Jap" Washington and "Laudie" Walker, hitting on all nine, the Finkelhors were trounced at the Duquesne University grounds, 13-3, in a game, which did little else but show the latent power and real class of the victors. Close to 2,000 fans shivered for two hours, as the teams pried off the lid for the local semi-

The game, showing promise of being a real battle during the early stages of the contest, quickly developed into a rout; the more so because the clan from the bench of Davy Roberts were unable to touch the delivery of Williams. Primarily a warm-weather pitcher. Williams showed the results of two weeks' intensive training by his masterly exhibition on the mound.
The Grays' offensive was a thing of beauty. Captain Beckwith and Gray, both newcomers, smacked the ball over the center field fence for circuit clouts. Beckwith's marker came in the fifth inning with one man on the paths. The ball sailed high and far, dropping onto the tracks of the Pennsylvania railroad. Gray's smacker came in the next inning, the former Keystone and Tate star speed-boy sending the pellet on a line drive over the same place where Beckwith's swallop disappeared.

Earl Johnson Wins Cross- Country Race at Schenley Park; Tankins Seventh
Running in his usual style, never dropping in the rear, and making a sensational finish, R. Earl Johnson, the Edgar Thomson star, romped over the Schenley Park cross-country course in record time and easily outdistanced all his competitors in the Olympic cross-country tryouts here Saturday afternoon. Johnson's time for the six-mile run was 29 minutes and four seconds, thus establishing a new record for the Schenley Oval course. This victory entitles Johnson to make the trip to Boston next month for the final Olympic tryouts for the American team to compete in the Olympic races in Paris, France. Johnson stands practically without a peer in the country and present indications point to his being the first selection for the American team. Already discussion is intense over his meeting with Willie Ritola, the Finnish chap, who, after appearing so sensationally in this country, left for his home country to enter.

Near Breaking
World's Record
COLUMBUS, Ohio, April 24—
Tankins SHOWS FORM
But the most outstanding feature of the run was the showing of Bufus Tankins, a teammate of Johnson and a real comer, if there ever was one. Tankins finished seventh. The only teammate in the race teammates, one the veteran and the other a newcomer, Johnson's ability is already known, and track critics have already expressed the belief that Tankins is diamond in the rough. Tankins never did any intensive training until two weeks ago.
But for the fact that he burned himself out in the first two miles, trying to keep near his tutor, he would have finished higher in the race. Tarkins was at no time lower than third man during the first four miles of the race. Tarkins is to run in the May 3 race, and in case his showing warrants it, will go to the Olympic tryouts in Boston in June.

Kid Norfolk Defeats Greb On Foul; One of Roughest Fights In Boston Histor
Kid Norfolk of New Yorkswon on a foul over 11 burgh in the sixth round of their scheduled 10-run tie, euil A. C. bouts in Mechanics hall Saturday night, striking Norfolk after the bell sounded the end of about the 'steenth time Harry had violated the rule.
The contest will go down in history as one of maulings affairs ever seen in a Boston ring. He decided against Greb, could not win the fight started, his usual car and cape was seen as a boxing contest, he was finally authority and award Norfolk the verdict on a Norfolk Had Big Lead at the Time
Up to the time the contest was stopped, Norfolk had a wide lead on the middleweight champion. While Norfolk also struck Greb after the bell, the Kid palpably was unaware that the gang had sounded and what he did amounted to little compared to what Greb attempted. The Pittsburgh man continually invited the rough work and his actions throughout the contest met with constant jeers. Boxing was completely left out of the event, so far as Greb was concerned. The moment he put up his hands, he started his dirty tactics. He gouged, mauled and almost exhausted himself trying to break him away from Norfolk. Time and again Greb obtained a headlock on Norfolk and managed to get in several digs while holding Norfolk firmly in his clinched arms before the referee could part him.
Norfolk never once complained but continued at his fighting and was doing a fire job on the champion. Norfolk won a majority of the gathering with his clean fighting. The crowd, by the way, was one of the largest ever in Mechanis. They apparently went away happy over the verdict given to Norfolk.
Greb never appeared to worse advantage here. He was miles out of focus with his punches, his swings missing Norfolk by feet and the likely real damage he had taken when he would rub the heel of his glove across Norfolk's face and resort to every unfair method to fighting.
Norfolk never once lost his patience. He opened the fight with a hard attack to Greb's body, registering right-handers to his ribs that almost bent the Pittsburgh man in two. Greb tried holding Norfolk around the neck with his left hand when he turned into him to him for a right upperback, but Norfolk blocked the punches almost before they were started.
Greb was terribly sloppy on his feet and had a hard time avoiding Norfolk's vicious attack. The latter appeared intent on scoring a knockout and came within a whisker of dropping the Pittsburgher in the fifth round with a hard right to the jaw shortly after the opening. Before the round ended Harry was sent back on his heels a second time as a result of a left hook that rocked him from head to heels, and these two punches acted like oil on a burning fire. Greb became furious at Norfolk's superior-fighting. The champion seemed to realize that he was fighting, a losing battle and never allowed an opportunity to dig in with a punch not wholly according to Hovle.
The fans were kept in a high pitch of excitement with the fighting, which was most vigorous and about as rough as ever seen in a home ring. Norfolk slowly but surely was wearing down Greb with hatred and hatred and body while Harry was having the time of his life trying to locate the shifty New Yorker with anything that looked like a good punch.
It appeared certain that, had the fight gone on, Norfolk would have scored a decisive victory. He had no trouble in scoring almost any time he attacked and bat tatou to both sides of Greb's body that had the champion anxious to clinch at every opportunity. The latter attempted to rally several times, but as quickly as he would open up and fight Norfolk would start a relentless attack that quickly forced Greb to clinch to save himself from further punishment. Neither man had the slightest advantage in the matter of weight. Both tipped the beam at 172½ pounds at weighing in time yesterday afternoon. Norfolk looked in excellent condition while Greb appeared weightier and slow. The middle-weight champion looked anything but a title holder and fought an altogether different style. He appeared uncertain of his movements and wouldn't go anywhere near Norfolk. The latter had to do all the forcing and this he did to the queen's taste, chasing Greb from one-corne of the ring to the other from opening round to the unlooked-forfinish.

Cosmopolitan Baptist church had their guests, the Knight Templars, on Easter Sunday. The church was crowded to the door with fraters and friends. Rev. J. C. Anderson preached a wonderful sermon befitting the occasion. Sir Jno. C. Morton was Master of Ceremonies, assisted by Sirs Rev. W. S. Lewis and David Richards.
The following is the address of Sir Jose Sherwood, president of the International Conference of K. T., of St. Paul, Minn., who is the guest of his fraters:
Friends, brethren, fraters, peers, sisters—whatsoever be the true title, with it. I salute you. This is one of the biggest, happiest moments of my life. I am privileged to come before you as your honored guest as well as the Representative of and Servant-in-Chief to the many thousands of Christian Knights throughout-this broad land. It is indeed a rare tribute to be called to this beautiful city of splendid achievements; this city which has given to Masonry so many intellectual giants. We of the West regard Pittsburgh with sincere veneration; it was from your own St. Cyprian lodge that the light was sent across the mountains. Therefore do I feel meek and humble in coming into this ancient city, as one making a pilgrimage to a Holy Shrine to do homage; to communicate the shades of the illusory depaired of the cause and of field to initiate a spiritual presence; to kneel, as they so often knelt, about their Holy Allar and pledge my faith in the teachings of our noble Rite. To you it be, perhaps an old, old story, but to me so new. And it filleth with a sincere determination to go forth and accomplish wonderful things. Standing within these sacred walls, hallowed with the memories of so many noble men and women who have passed on across the dark river I am overwhelmed; my utter insignificance bears heavily upon me and I am constrained to reverently appeal to you to sympathetically unite with me in a devout supplication to our Heavenly Father that the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in His sight
Which we, of our own free will and accord, so cheerfully assumed at our induction into the order, that you to labor for the good of Knighthood and the regeneration of humanity. We arr gathered here to reckle the fiery enthusiasm of yore; to bring back our youth in the tin, vim, vigor and eagerness for work. Truly does Knighthood make profession of high ideals when it invokes Jesus as its Patron. But suppose He were to appear at one of our celebrations on His day? What would be His message to the men of today? Remember you His action

of driving the money changers from the Temple? How He denounced and rebuked them; tearing away the thin veil of pretence behind which they shielded themselves; leaving them exposed to an unsympathetic and scornful public? Would that same withering indignation flash upon us, rebuking us for snug contentment, our snug self-satisfaction, ritualism without reality? Would he say to us, as He did to the men of old, that we must repent in our hearts and show by our sincerity of our vows made at the altar of righteousness? The answer we may find, each for himself, by strict personal examination. Not in ancient creeds, but in present deeds, lies the salvation, the usefulness of, as well as the reason for the perpetuation of our Order. The cardinal doctrine, the underlying motive of Masonry is SERVICE. There is not a degree in the elaborations of its teachings which lacks the inspiration of this thought; SERVICE to our fellowmen, regardless of race, creed or color; SERVICE to God, creed or country. Are we grasping the opportunities so plainly before us? Doing the things which lie next to our hands and which the world does not represent of us? Masonry should be the masters of character. What is our attitude towards the rising generation? The fathers and mothers of tomorrow? What are we doing to lift them to a higher moral plane, to guide their footsteps safely over the snakes and pit-falls which encumber their pathway? Are we striving to leave behind us a better cleaner, purer world because we have passed through it? As parents what are we doing? The fathers, yea, and the mothers as well must teach their sons to live clean chaste lives; to grow up just as pure and undefiled as is expected of a daughter. Pay as much attention to the training of the boy as

we do to that of the girl. Teach them both there can be no double standard; that men and women, boys and girls all are to appear before the Judgment seat on an equal footing and that black sin committed by one sex is just as dark and vile in the sight of God, just as injurious to health, just as debasing to character when committed by the other sex. That male and female, they must each suffer alike and equally responsible. The morals of the boy is of even greater importance than are those of a girl, for he spends more time away from home and its mellow influences; thus is more apt to fall from grace if the ties anneal not strongly knitted. We dream vain things when we think our daughters may be kept sweet and pure while our sons are tacitly encouraged to sow their wild oats; to go out as hunters seeking whom they may violate! When the boy is taught to cherish, respect and protect every girl as his own sister, then can we hope for a chaste womanhood, as it will come only through the active co-operation of a chaste manhood, made thus by a careful and thorough training from the cradle. Oh, my friends, how can we expect such purity when we shirk our portion of the burden?
Each country and nation, every race or organization, all individuals, even as you and I, revere and hold sacred for usual celebration, some certain day. America has her 4th of July, the Hebrew his Feast; the Passover; the Order of the Eastern Star. Esther Day; Scot's sh Masonry, Holy Thursday, and Knights Templar, the Day of the Resurrection of our Lord, Easter. It is very fitting and meet that there be a season set apart as a reminder, else there would be danger that we forget the events which are past; lose sight of the things of yesterday. It is proper that such day be of thanksgiving as well as one of recall, that we may voice our thanks for life and liberty, health and happiness. Thanks for absence of grim war and loathsome pestilence. That we may recall the past with its defeats and victories; its hardships
HARRISBURG, PA.
The pastor of the Second Zion P. B. church, Rev. D. T. Taylor, took for his subject at the morning service "The Empty Tomb of Jesus." The large crowd in attendance listened to the inspiring words as they fell from the pastor's lips. At 3 p. m. there was an excellent program rendered by the Sunday school. Owing to the faith of our faithful and devoted organist, Mrs. I. Shippon presided at the organ. Mrs. Simpson is a masterful musician and elocutionist. There were several short addresses given by prominent people who were present. The youngsters did present and this Sunday school bide fair to become second to none in the city. We understand that one of our excellent teachers, Mrs. Govans, is contemplating in her resignation, a: it is rumored that Mrs. Logan, an exceptional Bible student, will take her place. Mr. Alexander Robinson filled the pulp during the evening, taking for his subject the "Resurrection of Christ." The Golden Rule Corps of the Girl Reserves, with their advisor, Mrs. W. Scott, hold an Easter egg hunt Thursday afternoon at the Phyllis Wheatley Y. W. C. A: After various games were played at a given signal the hunt began and lasted fully 30 minutes. The following girls were present: Maryland Speaks, Laura Kellum, Almecia Snow, Ada Waterson, Elizabeth Spotwood, Violet Scott, Ethel Smothers, Irene Keys. Each member of the Junior Y. W. C. A: was presented with a large chocolate egg by their advisor Mrs. Ethel Snow, at the branch Saturday afternoon. The regular gym class will be Monday evening, instead of Friday. Miss Johnson of the Central branch is the instructor Unity Lodge No. 71, I. B. P. O. E of W., will hold their annual memo
and triumphs; its mistakes and severe lessons. We are here assembled on this beautiful Easter Day as Knights: Templar to celebrate the Resurrection of Jesus Christ; He whom we accept as the true type of a Perfect Templar and whom we promise to emulate. We come to meditate on the past glories of this great order; to secure a her gras upon their meanings and to pledge our efforts to bless them, to shine again and always. We are here to ponder over and to renew the vow.
How many of us are guilty of this laxity?
(To be continued)
We dwell much on our lectures, upon charity—charity which causes us to shun meanness and backbiting and malice and envy; charity that maketh us to do unto others even as we would that they should do unto us; yet are we really on bowing terms with this great principle? Or do we forget, that other men are merely human, frail, weak and prone to stray from the narrow path even as we ourselves.
THE G. U. O. O. F.
All brothers and sisters of the G. U. O. O. F. are to assemble at Undertaker Ballot's chap on Paulson avenue at 12:30 p. m., on Sunday, May 11th, for their Thanksgiving sermon to be held at Rodman Street Baptist church, E.

go from these shores! The shadow of virtue and peace must rest on the bosom of this beautiful land of ours. Look at this street! Afire with lust and crime and venality. Bacchus is a saint in comparison to this! This old happy country—oh! for the Panama, the old Panama of papyrus days, the Panama of my youth. It was ludicrous. It sounded so funny. He got no farther. A police officer, gripping a baton, stepped up.
"Permit!" he exploded, seizing Del Campo by the collar. "Where is your permit?" "Permit?" asked the maestro incredulously. "What permit?"
"To speak here. Permit! Hot-headed, as were most of the native police, the officer tightened his hold on Del Campo, shouting: "Come on then—to the station-house!" "For what? What have I done?" Del Campo asked meckly. "Shut up; before I break your damned head! Come on!" Del Campo's eyes blazed angrily. He was a small man, much smaller than the officer; but as a law-abiding citizen he was not going to be brow-beaten out of his rights. "I demanded an explanation," he said, shaking the rough hand off his shoulder. "I am not going to be arrested—" "Kaw! Kaw!" from somewhere in the crowd. "You resist. Then take that—and that—vacumamol!"
The staff's contact with Del Campo's skull was terrific. Women on the street fainted as the blood squirted—poured as if tapped from a cask. They were nearing the Red Raven. Out of it fluttered gaudily clad women and drunken men. Da! le! Give it to him! Da! le! "It was music to the policeman's ears. It was the native battle cry. Sailors—again it is well to bring in the testimony of sailors—on transatlantic liners plying to the republics of the South, probably more than any other foreign group; know what happened, then—did they off their legs in the hands of these unfeeling agentes. Once in the clouds; it was useless to put up a defense. It meant that the pack was howling at your heels. "Da! le! Da! le! En el coco-bolo, chical!" Unmercifully the brigand let poor old bleeding Del Campo have it in the skull. His lips bled. His eyes wee-beginning to close.
Vamonts, and kicked and cuffed, he was the victim of a jeering mob which escorted him to the jail. Some men, on less provocation, had had their skulls cracked in a more artistic way. But this offer was a crude youngster. He had had it in for the first one that came along. The other night, at a dance on "G" street, he had met with a serious
Pittsburgh THE Courier AMERICA'S BEST WEEKLY
accident. He had been dressed in plain clothes, and the mob forgot that he was an agent and did not seem to pay him the compliments that were due him. One-armed Walter, a Barkadian Negro, had sent him howling and meaning on the floor with a savage kick. It was several hours before he had come to. Now poor defenseless Del Campo was paying for it.
In the station-house, the lieutenant at the desk, without taking record of the case, ordered Del Campo incarcerated—as if he were a common felon. He was put in a cell where an old white-haired bag was on her knees praying to the devil. In one corner a half-naked Negress glared hardishly at him. In another sitting in a pool of bloody water, was a young girl who had dared, at a danson in Cash street, to resist an officer's attentions. Huddled, in the interior, on cots and on the cold cement, were crooks and murderers and vagabonds caught in the agent's dragnet. Some sane; others prayed, most of them stared asphyxiated at the newcomer. One other soul sent flying down the corridors of hell! That was how it seemed to most of them.
Meanwhile, down rushed the Gatun Lambs. Special trains emptied thousands, and thousands of their hurly-burly selves on the finely-wrought carpet of El Earrio Rojo. Earlier, a set of games—cricket. "rounders," baseball—was staged. Triumphant and inflamed with the passions and desires of wold primitive men, they stamped into Cash street. Rum, whiskey, anisette—casks and casks of the flowing scarlet—were unscoked that night. For the restaurants and cantines and brothels it was one of the richest harvests in years.
Who, on this side of Paradise, does not remembrate that memorable night in March, 1915? The night was beautiful—as only are nights of the tropics. Silver and ebony melted into it and spread their witchery over the sea. Stars raced across the dome of the clouds in careless glee. It was a hot night. Little zephyr came struggling up awkwardly from the surface of Limon Bay. Most of the women, especially those who were dancing to the strains of the creole music, were dark, tropical cacti; others, women from the North wore long training transparent gowns of soft clinging material. Roses, flowers of every description, were stuck in their black, in their golden hair. Perfume took the place of air. One breathed in. Color, gorgeous color, was everywhere. Silver was temporarily tahoo. Gold became the standard. It beat the extravagances of the yearly carnival. No one ever saw so much gold, so many pretty women, so many goblets of sparkling wine.
Upstairs, in the black shadows men swarmed and plotted. Midnight was drowned by wild primordial shouts. Still the sky flung its snangled mantle over the city. There came a time when the phantasmagoria weared; the music, the dancing, the singing, the caressing. It lost its youthful fire. The Barrio was lost in drunken slumber. Ancient Greece had roghing on El Barrio Rojo that night.

Meharry Student Said to be Victim Of'Hello Girl'Plot
NASHVILLE, Tenn., April 24—Oswald Durant, an honor student at Mehrayar Medical College, who is charged with rape of a white telephone girl and has been indicted, is being asked in his fight for freedom by the N. A. A. C. P. here. Durant, who is an honor student of his class and a world war veteran, protects his innocence of the crime. W. C. Orton, President of the Nashville, N. A. A. C. P. writes that the only description given by the telephone girl of her overcoat was of the doctor of his overcoat and "and when confronted with grief she was unable to identify the coat or cap but said his voice "sounded like her assailants". On this evidence the Grand Jury indicted Durant and trial was set for April. The N. A. A. C. P. engaged JE. McCarn, one of the best criminal lawyers in the State and paid him a retainer fee of $250. He had the trial put off to enable him to prepare the case.
Durant is now in State Prison for safe keeping. According to Mr.

(EDWARD DAVENPORT)
(Continued From Last Week.)
JEAN stood for fully five minutes riveted to the spot where he had left her, contemplating that little gilded oval frame hanging on the wall. Then she gathered up her kimono and strode over to it and gazed long and hard.
"She was very pretty," she mused,
"But she's dead now."
And she deliberately lifted it from its hook and took it with her to her bedroom.
An hour later she came down-stairs dressed for the street.
"Just a cup of coffee and two small pieces of buttered toast, "Fannie," she said to her girl. "I want to do some early shopping this morning.
"Yes, ma'am. The cakes are very good this morning," she tempted several times but failed to prevail.
She delivered the toast with impolite civility and disappeared stiffly through the dining room door.
Jean had taken just two bites of the delicious brown toast when the thought dawned upon her that may be Guy, would come flying back home after something he had forgotten since he left in such a rush.
"It might be his thermometer or his stethescope," she speculated, glancing nervously at the top of the buffer.
"These doctors are always forgetting something that they should have taken with them the first time."
She jumped every time she heard a horn blow, thinking it was his machine, and the situation became more tense as her breakfast progressed, but she managed to stick it out till she finished one piece of toast and her coffee.
The buzz of the bell brought Fanny to the serving window.
"Fanny, if Mr. Alcott comes to lunch you tell him that I went to the dressmakers and won't be back before about 2 o'clock." She knew that this old grey-headed alibi rarely failed since no man ever had the courage to approach his wife's dressmaker, not even by telephone, for fear she might inform him of a past due bill which he never heard of before.
"Yes, ma'am. What shall I have for lunch?" "How much of that clam soup is there in the ice box?"
An U
He Loved
His First
"If you're not going to be here there'll be enough for his lunch." Fanny Informed.
"Alright. And give him that left-over plum pudding. I wonder if he put air in that hind tire on the electric."
"I expect he did. I heard him cussin' the pump and callin' it a man-killer or something like that."
Upon second thought Jean decided not to take her electric and instead she caught a Grant street car and went two blocks east. A move that was entirely contrary to the idea of the conservation of time and labor, since her destination was on Lake street, four blocks west of where she got on the car, only it was several squares north. After she got off the Grant street car she took the Franklin street car north to lake. A sigh of relief escaped Jean as she entered that crowded and busy thoroughfare and she was soon lost in the multitude of persons where she knew it would be difficult for any person to be recognized by anybody in a move that could have if did not involve six blocks west again before she arrived at Parkee's studio on the corner of Maple and Lake street. This round-about way was taken in order to avoid any possibility of meeting her husband, as such an occurrence at this time would be most unfortunate and would likely be fatal to the plans that she was about to lay.
"Men are too inquisitive with their wives anyway," she reasoned as she hastened along the street, "especially if they happen to meet them on the street alone. 'Where are you goin'? What are you gonna get? Who's it for? When'll you be back? and a dozen other questions which must be answered then and there and to their satisfaction."
Which sometimes results in the wife exposing some little secret that possibly was a little private happiness of her own. But it either has to be delivered up right on the spot or crucified then and there in its infancy or her presence is regarded with no small degree of suspicion.
She finally arrived at her destination, flushed with excitement and quite out of breath.
Two or three persons were already ahead of her waiting for sitings, so Jean was compelled to wait also; still this was far better than going
outside and taking chances of running into Guy. She found a good story in a magazine and was soon lost in its labyrinth of exciting adventures, and not until a courteous voice said to her: "Is there anything that I can do for you today," did she remember that she was waiting at a photographer's. She laid her book aside and followed the photographer into another room, after shooting a quick glance at a man that had just entered who looked a lot like Dr. Guy Alcott.
After about a half hour she emerged with a calm; but triumphant expression upon her face, just the contrary to that which she wore when she entered the posing room. She turned to the photographer.
"When can I get it."
"Not under two weeks at the least."
"You're sure it won't be over that. This is important?"
"Yes, provided you are satisfied to pay a small extra fee for making it a special."
"That'll be alright."
"Name, please."
"Name, please."
"Mrs. Guy Alcott, 312 South Allison avenue. No, don't send it collect; I'll call for it."
Next was the dressmaker's in order to make her word good, and then another round-about tour was made and she arrived at the fortune teller, Madame De Endor. She didn't like the name very well, for she remembered of reading some place in the Bible where this same name was connected with a witch. "But this woman has such a splen'd reputation," argued Jean with her conscience, "It won't do any harm to hear what she has to say."
Her trip downtown was speedily bordering on adventure. Her face was all flushed with excitement as she turned the big brass knob and stopped inside the door. There she stopped in indecision. The general appearance of the place didn't appeal to her at all notwithstanding the encouraging "Come- right in, Miss," from the soft and mellow voice of the oracle, whose kindly blue eyes were an invitation in themselves. But her prospective patron's courage had failed altogether. This was her very first visit to a fortune teller's.

Billy Page's Syncopators Score Tremendous Hit In New York;to Make Records
Order Direct From Headquarters for Race Artist Records
Pittsburgh Orchestra Takes Spotlight—Sheer Ability Carries Group to Fore.
NEW YORK, April 24—Billy Fage and his crack orchestra from Pittsburgh has taken Harlem by storm at the Capitol Palace Club at 526 Lenox avenue.
When the Broadway Syncopators arrived from my long engagement in this Smoky City, pleasure seekers among New York's smarter set were on edge to get a glimpse of Johnny Powell's newest attraction. The orchestra has a six months' engagement at the Capitol Palace Cafe, and other engagements aside from their regular work playing at some of New York's leading theaters. The new work will begin May 4. Some of the men are versatile musicians, playing two and three different instruments, which allows the orchestra to use 26 pieces with only ten men. This shows the ability of the personnel of the group as well as the genius for directing which Billy Page himself has time and again demonstrated. The orchestra has a contract to make records for the Okeh Phonograph Corporation. The records will be released next month.
If we are to judge by the splendid attendance at the initial appearance of this wonderful aggregation of musicians, and by the whole-hearted spontaneous applause given them by the big gathering, then Billy Page and his musicians have taken New York.

Gouge To Supplant Blues, As Popular Music, Says Handy
NEW YORK, April 24—W. C. Handy, "Daddy of the Blues," announces that he is now engaged in an effort to make the word "Gouge" as famous as has become the former name as a music title for a particular style of compositions. He says that the new series of compositions will be an artistic blending of the elements of ragtime, jazz and blues with a "something" in them that is a bit above the level to which his beloved blues have descended.
The first of his gouge numbers to be published is "The Chicago Gouge". Another is "The Memphis Gouge", with a dance interpretation that has been conceived by his daughter, Lucille, who will in all probability feature the piece in a big Broadway show if certain projects now interesting showfolks materialize. Mr. Handy is and has been in Chicago with his band for some time. His brother, William, has been managing their publishing business in the Gayetty Theater building, New York.

the famous Tiller Girls. In fact, they are a gingery, good-looking lot quite in accord with the superb costumes and scenic investment of the big production.
As to principals they are all of the most satisfactory type and cleverly handled the splendid material furnished them in the book by Allen Spencer Tenny. Heading the list is Manny King, a young and very clever character comedian who leaves never a dull moment while he is in possession of the stage. King not only is a very amusing Hebrew delineator, but is a splendid violinist as well. Kitty Madison is a lively dancing soubrette; Burton Carr, last season with Jack Reid's Record Breakers, has a pleasing tenor voice; Nan Palon, the prima donna, who comes direct from vaudeville, is the pos-

SACHA GUITRY'S NEWEST IN BUDA
"Faheres Fekete" Has Negro Lover of White Women — Causes. No Comment.
BUDA PESTH, April 24.—Sacha Guitry's new play, "Faher es Fekete" ("Black and White"), made its first appearance on the Hungarian stage last week.
He has used the miscegenation theme in the play. A Negro physician of the town is one of the actors, taking the role as the lover of an unfaithful white woman. A child born to her is colored and the husband knows it.
The appearance of a Negro playing the lover role with a white woman has not caused the least commotion here, and no unusual comments have been expressed.
The announcement that a Negro man would kiss the hand of a white woman in the forthcoming O'Neill production, "All God's Chillin' Got Wings," created a furore in New York recently.

ATLANTIC CITY
ATLANTIC CITY
By MIKE HENLEY Sporting News
The North Side Club, staged one of its best bouts of the year, when it brought Fleming, a leather pusher from Philadelphia, here to throw punches at our own Andy (Kid) Bell, the colored mittman. The fight was scheduled to go eight rounds and eight rounds it went. Time and again the white boy tried for Bell's stomach, but his punches were caught on the elbow or the glove. The awkward of the sessions, while Buck was two, all said and done, the club would do it self and the fight public justice if it would siga these boys to another contract and promote more mixed bouts. Mixed bouts in Atlantic City always draw the crowd.

Political
The Bader-Johnson-Richards Organization last night, trained its guns on Harry Bacharach and his ticket at a mass meeting on the Steeplechase Pier and other Organization gatherings about the city. Mr. Bacharach was attacked for his reported "firitations" with the Ku Ku Ki Ki Club. His reply is expected to be forthcoming tonight when he addresses the Independent Business Men's Association.
William A. Dart, colored attorney, declared that "We do not want any candidate who represents an organization that is opposed to the Negro. Any organization that comes here is not going to be supported by government, and is born and conceived in such uncleanness, is unfit to tell us how we shall be governed. As a colored boy, I tell you that when that organization starts anything, I will help to finish it. I am surprised that two of the men of the present administration intend to accept the support of this Klan organization."

THE MESSENGER
Chance recognition by a Newark detective of a man's face in Harlem led to the arrest last week of a woman wanted on two charges in this city and the confiscation of an opium layout.
Detectives Fallon- and Reiboldt
JERSEY CITY
Attired in garments that would incite the envy of a minstrel or wanderling troubador or some such thing James Thompson, 13, of 81 Fairfield avenue, West Caldwell, was apprehended by the strong arm of the law in the person of Patrolman Roche of the Communipaw avenue station, at Johnstown avenue and Grand street, where he was arrested after he traveled this far in his act of running away from home. The lad wore bedraggled looking long trousers, a Boy Scout hat and an apparently discarded D. C. servant coat, for him, that had undoubtedly seen service with the late A. E.-F.
James when questioned by the police station said he and his father occupy their spare time digging collars. Yesterday morning he said his feet were cold notwithstanding the very heavy shoes he wore and the balmy spring day. Being somewhat weary and, as mentioned before, his feet were cold notwithstanding the taxi to transport him to the father's domicile. This, accomplished to a nicety, had the rather reactionary taxi to his father's wrath down upon his head. In plain but true words James asserted his father was going to beat him, so forgetting about another taxi he "bummed" a ride on an auto truck to Jersey City. His solicitous parents were notified by the police, who said they were at Columbia Hall, Ocean and Cater avenues. Thursday night.

Don't miss this chance of seeing form at its best. Come and see with both your eyes and you'll also be a popularity contest, and Professor Maron Smith and his full versatile orchestra will furnish music.
Louisa Rich, 34, of 273 Jewett avenue, Jersey City, a domestic, was arrested yesterday by Detective Collins and Enderlein of the Communal-pawne avenue station, on complaint of Charles Anthony, also, who allegedly she is the woman who stabbed him, near the heart on Sunday last. Louisa is the woman whom he knew only as Lucille, Anthony said, and stabbed him during the course of a "little party" at his home. The woman was booked on the charge of atrocious assault and battery.
Blackmore of Lincoln University, Mrs. Mary C. Lyle of the First Ward Women's Club, Isaac Nutter, assistant director of the Young Women's unit of the First Ward, and Octavius H. Graham of Howard University, will attend.

The President Sound Our Keynote We have been listening to alleged mouthpieces of the President while they attempted to shape the coming campaign for him and the Republican party. In his own style, and at his own convenience which always seems most appropriate and timely, President Coolidge sounded his own "keynote." The campaign may now proceed.
To the American interested in the future of the country as a workforce for good, the President took the highest possible ground. His idea of "service" is not unlike the preachments of the man whose life is emulated today as the most Heal known to man. Service, in the mind of President Coolidge, is not servility, bigotry or presumptuous dictation. He defines his conception in a most substantial, and yet practical
Admittedly, President Coolidge is not afraid. His attack upon the world evils is open and positive. His recommendations are fearless, and his suggestions carry conviction.
It is not speculation to say that President Coolidge is not in sympathy with the exclusion clause of the Johnson Immigration Bill. Whether he vetoes the bill remains to be determined by reaction from the American people. It is safe to say that President Coolidge had the larger interests of humanity in mind when he suggested another "World Parley." We do not think President Coolidge could expect Japan, excluded without even politeness, to sit with this government in any "World Parley." For this reason, we think the President opposed to the method employed in excluding the Orientalis.
And this exclusion question is more serious than some misguided Americans think. The words of Judge Gary, president of the United States Steel, ought to have some weight. He is a man of exceptional business capacity, with contacts reaching almost around the globe. He tells the American people that the Japanese have been treated too harshly, to put it diplomatically. His words might have been more emphatic, but for misinterpretations that might follow. He diplomatically stated his opinions, but they are none the less very deep rooted.
President Coolidge cannot escape the ordinary and probable meaning of the words he employed. He wants a world understanding on international questions. He wants international law codified to meet the present day international problems. He cannot hope to have these blessings with one part of the world powers insulted by discriminatory laws calculated to make inferiores of a very proud and thrifty race of people.
The keynote of the campaign will be service—service as universal as the needs of the races of earth. This kind of service abroad will be impossible until domestic problems receive the same kind of service at home. The President has selected for himself a very popular program. He has already enlisted the sympathies of the world; and as soon as he shows a disposition to make his service a practical reality, he will enlist the assistance of the world. Mankind, everywhere, is waiting to help mankind. Service is the universal slogan.
John Brown, The Neglected
PS it is a blessed thing that John Brk that his supreme sacrifice would remain as chief beneficiaries for almost a century, related to throw himself before the mob in United States, and peoples everywhere, man slaves. It is remained for the John Brown Memorial by Dr. Max Barber of Philadelphia mission to a belated gratitude. And yet of our duty may serve all the more to action, once we are aroused. Memorial Association has fixed May 9, the date of all dates, as the time when its way to the tomb of our great benefactor the place where his body lies "moulding, he to build a suitable shaft bearing our gratitude to him, while his soul go there in the land where God has made it be like Him." Activity will quicken, it is hoped, undelegated duty. Our monument will be we have postponed its building so long. Mission commensurate with the cause; a gratitude will mount to heights in strides from which we have come. Are our heads in object apology for our love and daring a friend. We rededicate ourselves service of his memory with the sameized his attacks upon our former oppressor neglected, shall be resurrected in the thirteen millions, at least, and never, as convicted of so criminal a neglect as has past.
PERHAPS it is a blessed thing that John Brown did not know that his supreme sacrifice would remain unnoticed by its chief beneficiaries for almost a century. He might have-hesitated to throw himself before the mob that Negroes in the United States, and peoples everywhere, might be free from human slavery.
It has remained for the John Brown Memorial Association, headed by Dr. Max Barber of Philadelphia, to rise and give expression to a belated gratitude. And yet, our tardy realization of our duty may serve all the more to stimulate appropriate action, once we are aroused.
The Memorial Association has fixed May 9, the most appropriate date of all dates, as the time when a pilgrimage will make its way to the tomb of our great benefactor. Lake Pleacid is the place where his body lies "moulding." It is here we propose to build a suitable shaft bearing our belated expressions of gratitude to him, while "this soul goes marching on" somewhere in the land where God has made it possible for us all to "be like Him."
Our activity will quicken, it is hoped, under the sting of a much neglected duty. Our monument will be all the larger because we have; postponed its building so long. Our zeal will find expression commensurate with the cause; and our characteristic gratitude will mount to heights in striking contrast to the depths from which we have come.
We be our heads in aject apology for our long neglect of so great and daring a friend. We rededicate ourselves to an unswerving service of his memory with the same abandon that characterized his attacks upon our former oppressors. John Brown, the neglected, shall be resurrected in the hearts and souls of thirteen millions, at least, and never again shall we stand convicted of so criminal a neglect as has characterized us in the past.
Putting the "Dram" in Drama

"BILL BOARD" JACKSON, as his associates address him, "has taken pen in hand to curse out the race because Roseanne had to go out of business for want of sufficient boxoffice receipts. Mr. Jackson tries to tell us that the white people would not buy "first-class drama", and then he wails that colored people would not buy "first class drama" either, although they said "they would colored theaters if they offered good shows:"

ored people any more than are Hurtig & Seamon. Roseanne represented a drama, alrra, indeed the way the Negro race was degraded and humilinted, was, indeed, dramatic. The whole business was a burlesque on the Negro church and the Negro minister, and a sad reflection upon the Christian-professing members of the group.
A drunken minister, a libertine as a pastor, a money grabber as the representative Negro preacher, and the adulterous practices running between almost every line of the "drama" is what Mr. Jackson calls "drama," and he is all "het up" because Negroes would not keep the box office fat so the "Negro artists" could make a living at the expense of the race.
Nay, nay, Mr. Jackson, we are not ready to call that "bunk" drama, nor Gilpin and Robeson artists, if they must employ such a cursed vehicle as Roseanne to demonstrate their wares. We lost nothing of value when Roseanne "went out of business."
Mr. Jackson, since he seems to have the confidence of producers of such rot, had better tell them that the "high brows" he refers to are still ready and willing to patronize drama; but not burlesque parading under the name of "drama." And Mr. Jackson need not offer any apology that he could not "present his plea" with any more paying results than put Roseanne out of business.

WHY ANONYMITY?
(From Atlantic City Daily Press)
(From Atlantic City Daily Press)
As the Press stated yesterday, Atlantic City, is the religious capital prejudices and has no patience with intolerance. It is to the everlasting credit of this city that it refuses to treat seriously the rabid bigotry which is typical of many industrial cities. Nor does anyone believe that there is any so-called Klan or other organization here that subscribes to any right or the highest democratic Americanism; for if there were it could not receive respectable support in Atlantic City.
But isn't it about time that we stopped tempting disorder and bad feeling by forever hinting at demonstrations of religious or racial character? Isn't it about time the people of this city understand of this all fairness, tolerating canonymy in public discussion and public meeting?
No one, for instance, wants to stop the mysterious "Colonel A," from speaking or the Klan or other organizations from meeting, but would it not be better if the cloak or anonymity were discarded and "Colonel A," addressed the public under his right name and for, just exactly what he is? Otherwise we have a mysterious figure and which thereby may cause apprehension and hyteria, without any real justification.

EDITOR'S MAIL
Edith Pittsburgh Courrier:
"Permit me to publish this little comment on the much discussed 'All God's Chillun Got Wings'. Why much ado. about nothing? I have read with interest many crilites on the subject; Mr. Maddun's years and others, but aren't you in your effort to do good, aggravating the Mr. O'Neill, because I do not know his motive, but, I absolutely refuse to infer harm or bad intent, I shall let him do that. Why how? Why cry? Is it a sign of weakness? 'All that a man achieves and all that he fails to achieve are direct consequences.' This is justly ordered universe. A man's weakness and strength, purity and impurity, are his own, and not another man's. They are brought about by himself, and they can only be altered by himself. His suffering and happiness are not so he is, as he continues to think, so he remains.
It has been usual for men to think and to say: "Many men are slaves because one is an oppressor; let us hate the oppressor." However, there are a few tendencies to this judgment, tenacity to this judgment, the one man is an oppressor because many are slaves; let us dispense the slaves." The truth is that oppressor and oppressed are in cooperation in ignorance; resulting in suffering. He who has conquered weakness, he who has conquered oppression belongs neither to oppressor or oppressed. He is free. Let us rise, conquer, and achieve, by lifting up our thoughts. Let Mr O'Neill, Mr. D. W. Griffith and every one who cares, what, and anything they please, will effect us. If our thoughts are lofty, theirs are low they won't connect.
So why "Much ado about nothing?"

THE-DIGEST
JAPAN has shown that she is not to be wontantly inguited and then tuck her tail and slink, away without a word. The passage of the Johnson immigration bill by the House and Senate, which admitted other races on a percentage basis, but excluded Japan altogether, drew from Ambassador Harniara the statement that "grave consequences" might follow the enactment of the measure.
the ambassador has since explained his position in soft diplomatic language, but that Japan is aroused is
The fight against the Japanese comes from the Pacific Coast, and from California in particular. There the resentment against the orientals is bitter. The Japs are shrewd, calculating and industrious. With these virtues they have already gotten ahead of many native (white) Californians, and the prospects are that if they are allowed equal rights under the constitution the widespread argument against it 'makes a country' will prove a myth. The fact is the Japanese already own a large part of California, and if let alone they might it in all. So, true to form, the white man rather than compete with him, has set up a war.
War has been slyly hinted on both sides of the Pacific. The white people of this country will yet learn that all 'inferior' races are not so much at their mercy as their own fellow citizens in black. They will find that their 'treat 'em rough' tactics which they use so effectively against the Negro will not work all times against anybody whom they happen not to like.
THE war knocked Socialism into a cocked hat. Standing on the international platform of class consciousness, adherents of the faith in belligerent countries suddenly found themselves at each other's throats during the turbulent days of the struggle with Von Hindenburg. Communism and chaos followed in Germany and Russia. The Labor party in England. In America the Polish Communist League and the Farnsworth Labor Party got the majority of Debs' folly after the 1920 election. And now the American Labor Party is bidding for the remaining faithful few.
"Class consciousness" is not a good slogan for a democracy. Where voters are equal they are moved on issues and not on prejudices and theoretical wrongs. And especially the Polish Communist League is this a young country and not conservatively settled into economic and political niches from which it would take a glass vote to dislodge it.
Dobe, Hilliott and Victor Berger are far from the popularity which was theirs four years ago. Their decline is a good gudge by which to measure the country's getting back to normal.
THE Harlem Community Theater Organization has announced that preliminary arrangements have been completed for the formation of the National Ethiopian Art Theater, Inc. The objects of the theater will be to open the door to the community and worthy playwrights of the race, and to provide a means to offer its contribution to the art of the world. A school will be conducted in this connection to train teachers in dramatic art, dancing, public speaking and diction.

AMONG GOOD
WEEDS, by Edith Summers Kelley. Published by Harecourt, Brase & Company, 383 Madison avenue, New York. 333 pages. Price $2.00.
WE ALL know of Kentucky, famous for its beautiful women and fast horses, and the rolling blue-grass region where grazing past on in October morning. But what about the people who strip the tobacco in these barns thirteen hours a day, and live in the little shatteries scattered between the few spacious white houses? This book is a picture of these people, a strange, "simple people," who have never been twenty miles from home, and yet whose lives are filled with the human tangles of centuries. And this picture of the woman born in these surroundings, but as alien to them as Burns was to his Calvinistic neighbors.
That woman is Judith Pipinger, the third girl and fourth child of Bill and Annie Pipinger, "Weeds" is the story of her life and its surroundings, from the time she was a creeping little tomboy-girl, taking more interest in the in-doors than in traditional femininity. She was a kind and caring, but not dusty, duranting friend, Uncle Jabez Moorhouse, died, many years later, when she was the wife of Jerry Blackford with three children of her own. Judith's life is absorbingly interesting. She never seems to adjust herself to her station in life, although she is living in the right strata. She is out of place, yet note of her neighbors or friends understand what she is doing. Even she does not understand. She is without guidance, she takes pleasure in doing the "for-hidden" things.
Of particularly interest is Judith's moral sense. She has none. She simply does what she wants to do and that is the end of it. If other people don't like her ways that doesn't in the least affect her. During her tryst with the leader of a revival, she saw nothing wrong with her conduct. She was discreet simply because she feared her husband might become violent if he knew it, but for no other reason. She sought to stry the result of the tryst but she didn't want any more trouble. It trysted to her too, that it might be right to bring in a new child that wasn't his husband's, but that phase was the least of her worry.
Take Mr. Snyder's statement about school wages and justice. That is no longer a situation, but a local question in the South. There are places in the South where none of these lacking, yet a part of the Negro population in other parts. Why? For the same reason is Adoo quit Tennessee and Georgia for New Orleans and Los Angeles. The Tennesseans' statement about the being generally honest and desire to treat the right. He denies Mr. Snyder's allegations in the feeling of racial antagonism is not so as some imagine. That is the way he feels. But suffice to say that if another lynching car in the next hundred years, and if equal scrupulously meted between the races, in the there would be traces of distrust between the black. The white man has mistreated the black know it. 'The Negro knows better.' They are not that they cannot be grounded and good intentions. At best they be spatched up by mutual expressions of good. The controversy between the two white about the Negro shows that they both realize Negro is out for the best deal possible far. That is something.
THE Editors of The Massenger are eager to meet Negro literature by Negro writers placed in a proposed library in the City of Chicago, the mecca of the Negro World. The president of the World Organization, wrote in reply to the suggestion of A. Philip Randolph that "we shall be required to have these works." Mr. Randolph his reason for soliciting the books as being Negro life and culture by Negro authors sensed an opportunity to "world" his is a chance for those of an intolerance of mind to do their race a real service. We intend to send a volume for this collection others will do likewise.
WHILE members of the International Labor Workers' Union found it to their taint not to maintain a color line for recent strike in Chicago. When the order was strike for more pay and better working conditions Negro members walked out along with this opportunity is not allowed. Negro American Federals for the workers. It is the organization to fight the color of Gruzan's organization.
Too many benefits accrue to unionists to take the workers from organizing. Greedy easily take advantage of and exploit their help at if they only get a chance. It is to prevent the mand their rights that the workers join in common struggle.
But unionists must remember to "stay ground." The employer has rights which are specified. To make unreasonable demands all bad as malign, no demands at all.
Here is hoping that Negro workers ununionized, either in the white organizations own, and seek to improve their work, as well their pay.
Finally Judith decides to give up and as she is, not because she has been born because she is tired of experiencing the pain because she has taught invigilately follows revenge she becomes as the other women about without a remarkable career, where career often remarkable.
SUSAN PROUDLEIGH, by Herbert G. De Haas lished by Methuen & Co., Ltd. E. E. W. C., London, England. 300 pp.
THIS book was first published in 1831 in story in the Jamaica Daily Gazette of Jamaica, British West Indies. To De Lissée, a former good wife, who "Gloriosa" and one of the famous opposing Glores, in Garvey's home country.
This novel is much more than a fiction it. It gives a vivid and understandable different classes of colored society, helps immeasurably in understanding ideals of West Indians who have country to live among.
