By W. ROLLO WILSON, Staff Representative

John Levi, the Haskell Indian, touted as a second Jim Thorpe, have sprained ankle and did not international flavor to the meet; but the visiting brethren could not win anything. Eric Liddell, of Scotland, won his Heat in the 220 only to be defeated by Louis Clarke, of John Hopkins, in the final.

"Chisum Will Have to Prove Story"—Mays
CHICAGO, Ill. May I—Judging from the fiery rebuttal waged in the Mays-Chisum controversy, the courts will take. a hand if-peace would prevail between the warring gentlemen.
Mays says he shall demand that Chisum name the woman spoken of in connection with the affair; prove illicit relationships or back up like may not arise that is more than worth the effort.
He has demanded that Chisum be more convinced than ever that this man is either a knave or a charlatan; that he is one of a ring apparently set to get me; to preach wine; women and song to the Pullman porters in an effort to eliminate me from their confidence. He is prepared to take Chisum into court where he must prove his allegations.
Chisum says he can do so. What
chisum says is the subject of
much conjecture.

Admits Wife Left His Home With Mother
Prominent Local Minister Named as Disturber in Drake Household.
"My wife's mind was poisoned against me during my absence in the West Indies to visit my sick mother."
Thus spoke the Rev. J. G. St. Clair Drake, former pastor of Bethany Baptist Church, to a Courier reporter Tuesday afternoon in refutation to rumors anent a rift in the domestic relations of the minister and his wife, who it is claimed left the city with her mother, simply saying that she was not caused for the rumors.
Neighbors Give Details
Neighbors of the Drakes and people intimately acquainted with the family, have told a story which is international in tone, connecting a woman in the city with the minister of the minister's, a New York girl, but now staying at the Drake residence, forms a colorful background, it is said.
Nationally Known
Rev. Drake, who foreleg years has been pastor of Bethany Baptist Church, is nationally known as the eloquent, forceful speaker, and recognized as an outstanding force throughout the city, state and country; he has been constantly before public as an orator and spokesman.
Rev. Drake sailed last October from New York, carrying his son with him. Upon his return here, he states, he found that the mind of his wife, as well as all of his children, had been poisoned against him. He resigned his pastorate at once, he declares, Rumors Unsavory While no person has made a direct statement against Rev. Drake's moral character, heightened by his affair with Miss Eunice Smith, a pretty and attractive New York girl, who came to Pittsburgh with an older sister and younger brother in January, was the signal for the first apparent rift in the Drake's 14 years of marriage. The allegue of the minister applauded the strangely infatuated by his niece, and that the departure of Mrs. Drake was inevitable.
Rev. Patterson Denounced
In the declaration, the Rev. A. M. Patterson, widely known and highly esteemed in church circles, was named in church circles, was named by Rev. Drake as the direct cause of the trouble. He it was accusing the minister of the mind of his wife and congregation, while acting in the latter's stead. Rev. Patterson could not be reached Tuesday night.

"Don't ask me. Just hard work!"
So spoke the city's finest young orator, William S. Randolph of Schenley High School, who mertioriously won first honors in the Pittsburgh elimination of the national oratorical contest on the, Constitution of the, United States. Friday evening before an audience that filled Carnegie Music Hall. Young Randolph is 17 years old, the son of A. Randolph, Mrs. William M. Randolph of this city.
Randallph was picked for first honors by the 'unanimous decision of the judges.' "A clear voice with an inflection that seemed to run the gamut of the spending scale gave his delivery an appealing tone." The constitution depends upon the American people.
Seven, other contestants (white) representing the seven, high schools also spoke. The judges were the Rev. Dr. John McNaugher, Federal Judge W. H. S. Thomson and J. D. Ayers of the Bank of Pittsburgh. And such an audience the orators had. Seated in delegations, the groups of the high schools acted yelled through the reverberations filtered through the massive walls of Carnegie Institute and resounded in Schleny Park.
Chairman Sherrard called the meeting to order promptly and in obedience to his request the cheering ceased, although the hall resounded with applause at the close of each session, well armed and were delivered in veteran speaker style. The entire program of eight speeches was run off in 90 minutes.
The orators were seated together in a front row. Carlham will represent the Pittsburgh high schools in the Allegheny county contest next Friday night in Soldiers' Memorial Hall. County Superintendent C. E. Dickey will preside and the judge will Royal Goldsbury, Dean Arthur W. Tarlbury, of Carnegie Institute of Technology, and Attorney Arnold Reppel. The entire community is lord in its praise of young, Randolph's brilliant victory.

"Oldest Woman" Dies
HAYTI, Mo., May 1—Mr. Max randall, who here last week said he daughter to be the oldest woman in America. She is claimed to have been 130.
Dent of the United Colored Democracy, attended the funeral Monday as a member of the Executive Committee of the Tammany Hall Democracy.
Mr. Murphy was at no time in his career too busy to take up any matter affecting his constituents, with the most humble of his party, whether Jew or Gentile, Cancasion or Negro. With the race in New York city growing in numbers in the ranks of the most powerful party Mr. Murphy came to it that proper recriment was given, with the result that there are now in the civil service: more Negroes, than there has been at any previous time.
"There has been some expression of opinion that the death of Mr. Murphy may affect the workings of the Colored Democracy." Officials, how ever, state that these fears are unfounded and that Mr. Morton continue to lead Negroes in this section of the country that there will be no change on account of the death of the greatest leader Temmy has ever had.
The funeral was held at St. Patrick's Monday morning. A long line of colored people viewed the body before it was laid to rest, as a mark of appreciation for the friendship he had displayed, not because of any favors done for the party, but because he believed in fair play. He was the one man in the party who argued that by giving the Negro a square deal, he would eventually win them over.

Woman Fails To Identify, But Mob Acts
ORANGEBURG, S. C., May 1—The first lynching to occur in this county, in twelve or thirteen years took place last Sunday night on the Holman bridge road, five miles from Norway, and four miles from Cope, near Robert's creek. Adams formerly of this county but more lately a resident of the Cope section, was the king. He was twenty-five years old. The lynching took place a day clock in one of the most secluded spots in the county. Witnesses at the coroner's inquest Monday morning stated they heard a number of shots Sunday night about 9 o'clock in the vicinity where the set was committed.
Reports Monday morning stated that one of the prominent white women of the Norway section of the county was attacked by a colored man on the night of March 11, and a number of suspects have been carried before her, but she did not recognize any of them. It was reported that she was still in a highly nervous condition. Luke Adams was arrested Saturday afternoon in Cope by Constable W. R. Kirkland, of Norway, and carried to the town jail at Norway.
Several people in the community spread the alarm early Monday morning and Deputy Sheriff St. Clair Price, of this city, went to the scene and found Adams tied by one hand to a sweet gum tree, about five feet from the public road and about seventy-five yards to the north of Robert's creek bridge. Price picked up seventeen pistol cartridges and five gun shells.

ReportShows Inefficient Management
Lewis Named; Committee Reports He Owns Lot, Thought (To Belong To Hotel.
WASHINGTON, May 1. Bad management and lack of bookkeeping caused the embarrassed financial condition of the Whitelaw Hotel Company, the investigating committee reported to the stockholders Friday night.
Lewis Is Involved.
One of the startling disclosures of this committee was the controversy over a lot on the east side of the Whitelaw Hotel. The committee reported that it found a number of the members of the board of directors under the impression that this lot was purchased for the Whitelaw Hotel, but that John W. Lewis claimed ownership of it and had lately transferred it to his wife. The committee also reported that it found that upwards of $400 of the money of the corporation had been used in the purchase of this lot.
The committee report declared that it appeared that John W. Lewis, who constructed the Whitelaw Hotel and organized the corporation was given absolute authority in the management of affairs during the period of construction and for some time after the building was completed. He collected all monies and disbursed them as he saw fit, it was reported. Syndicate to Save Hotel A resolution providing for the formation of a predicate by thir board to take the financing and management of the property was also adopted. It is hoped that this will save the property from a public sale.
The committee which investigated the affairs of the corporation from the time of the purchase of the property and the erection of the hotel to the present consisted of Arthur W. Mitchell, chairman; John R. Hawkins, Dr. Carroll Brooks, John T. Rlsher and Dr. J. J. Porter.
New Board Suggested
A new board of directors composed of John R. Hawkins, Carroll Brooks, Wm. H. Lewis, Charles Rid, Mrs. Julia Collier, Jessie Mitchell and R. P. Chandler was also suggested by the committee, but the meeting adjourned before voting on them. The next meeting will be May 1st.
MINISTER COMES TO WED;
GIRL LEAVES HIM WAITING
(Continued from: Pago 1)
love a-fame in his breast correspondence flowed, the romance flourished. Eventually the day and date were decided upon, and accordingly the palatial home of the Rev. Gibson, at 42 Mason street was ordered renovated from bottom to top. The list of friends were scanned and from that the names of 400 were selected and the same number of richly embossed invitations were sent them requesting their presence to the much heralded wedding of Wednesday evening. The grateful Mt. Church, the scene of their first meeting was to be the place where they would march to the Altar to the strains of Mendelson's Wedding march.
But as the wedding presents from friends of the grom to be were arriving and as he was preparing to go for the license in order to have them in plenty of time to comply with the Jersey law, he decided to call his bride-to-be over the long distant telephone to find out how things were progressing on that end. Then is when he received the shock of his life.
Mrs. Hawkins gently confided to the Rev. Gibson that her daughter had made her way to parts unknown but did not forget to leave a note for him as well as one for her informing her that which she considered, she had come to the conclusion-that she could not marry her fiance, but instead she had gone away with the man she deeply loved; one whom she knew and long loved before she met the latest candidate for her hand and heart. But she assured her parents that they would be well pleased with her final choice.
The parents are very much puzzled as to the identity of their new son-in-law and are waiting patiently the eloping couples' return. What to do with the 400 cards announcing the dates when the Rev. and Mrs. Gibson was to receive at home is a puzzle to the Rev. Gibson.

BEAT WHITES IN SPEC-
TACULAR RACE FOR BEACH
open to all, and where none of the usual wiles and tricks to discourage any class of bathers and make things uncomfortable for them will be practiced.
The opening of this beach is set for Decoration Day. The deal has just been completed, but already workmen are on the road to necessary arrears to the hotel and crowding the property for the large crowds that are expected this summer.
The property is well developed and was operated as an amusement resort for many years. Recently, however, the lease expired and the owners refused to renew to the old leases. Colored promoters got wind that the beach was in the market, and the race began which ended in a victory for the colored group. It is planned to operate an excursion boat to the beach, which is an hour's distance from the heart of Harlem. The boat will make two trips a day to begin with. Local papers are already carrying advertisements offering the concessions for the sale of candy, soft drinks, etc., to colored business men. It is understood that only in the event of colored business men failing to take advantage of the offer will the concessions be offered to whites, who are over-anxious to pick them up.
The group operating the project have incorporated as the People's Playground Co., Inc., but no stock is to be offered for sale. With the exception of a block of five thousand shares which will be disposed of as prizes to children of the group, or to Harlem or expecting to be," in a contest for the most suitable name for the beach, the corporation is a closed one.

Orphanage Is Fired After Threats Fail
Mrs. Mattie Morris,
Woman Director, Blames
Klan—Home In Public
Spotlight.
(Special to the Pittsburgh Courier)
Dr. HARRY R. WEBER
NEWARK, N.-J., May 1- The Good Samaritan Home For Colored Orphan children here, located in Riyadhside avenue, was set on fire last week, following an attempt to expell Mrs. Mattie Morris, former director of the home, by threats signed by the Ku Klux Klan. The home, it will be remembered, was closed by the Children's Aid Society several weeks ago due to an alleged discovery by a police officer that unsanitary and immoral conditions prevailed to such an extent that the lives of the inmates were imperiled. Evidence presented at the hearing, however, is showed that the white officer's report was greatly exaggerated; that there was more to the incarceration than seemed at first.
HIS. Morris received warnings she said that the building would be burned if she would not voluntarily leave the city.
She has frequently been before the public during the last few years in efforts to obtain funds for the orphanage and also because of clashes with the health department and children. She has 'continued to live at the home with a companion Frances Halkey.
Miss Halsey told the police that she received three threatening telephones calls during the afternoon in Mrs. Morris absence. Mrs. Morris received a letter signed "K. K. K. X. X. X." last week ordering her to leave the city or accept the consequences which were forcible expulsion. She made the threats public and notified the police. One night she left a light burning on the second floor of the home but went home with Lisa Halsey to sleep at the home of Mrs. Halsey for 24hrs Riverside avenue. The fire damaged the rear part of the home and part of a small story portable dormitory building adjoining. The damage was estimated at $1,000.
The case of Mrs. Morris which claimed the attention of the public a few weeks ago, it was reported from reliable authority, had its genesis in keen opposition to her home by the organized colored agencies in this city. The reason for this seemed to be the fact that Mrs. Morris did not prefer to operate her institution under the direction of these agencies and as a result incurred their displeasure.
for the defense, when refused a new trial by the lower court, at their own expense, appealed to the highest court of the state, the Supreme Court. They based their appeal on two points of law, namely'(1) That it was improper to admit evidence of a prior independent offense alleged to have been committed by the defendant to rebut testimony of the defendant's good reputation; (2) It was improper to permit the Commonwealth in their cross-examination of the defendant's character witnesses to examine him on traits of character; which in human nature the defendant is the act for which the defendant is shrewd. The evidence objected to was the testimony that Mattie Jones had killed a white man in the South prior to killing Willie Martin and that she was a common woman.
It will be recalled that Mattle Jones was tried for the murder of Willie Martin and the daily papers "played up" the fact that a society woman was sitting on the jury and gave her more publicity than they did the report of the trial. At the time the guilty verdict was brought in she announced that she would not be punished for what she felt was a just verdict. Miss Jones was refused a new trial and condemned to die.
At the time sentence was passed by Judge McDevitt his court assumed the appearance of a society function. Numerous persons in the social and official life of the city_were in attendance to hear the extreme penalty handed out to a defenseless creature, whose crime was not in proportion to other women who had either been acquitted or given a less degree of punishment. Among those present were Mrs. Mary Roberts Dinereh, a famous female and central Smelley Butler, the director of the Department of Public Safety. Mrs. Rinehart interviewed Miss Jones and will soon write about it.
This case aroused the women of the city and all of the civic organizations have decided to retain Attorneys Norris and Lewis to defend the prisoner.
ATTORNEY S. M. DUDLEY, a popular and well-known churchman of Washington, D. C., is a candidate for secretary of church extension, A. M. E. Zion connection.

May 1.—Charged with holding his two years confined in a dingy room or until she lost her sight for lack of N. Caroline street, was held without police station last Tuesday, or told the story of the unnatural father at the hearing for the first brought to court by complaints ofantly like a hunted animal and givemen. of hadable street little novel of two rooms inaccessible except through a back entrance over an old delapidated stable building at 203 N. Caroline street. According to her testimony practically all of her existence during these two years has been in one of these dark rooms, where, shut out most of the time from the light she has lost her sight. For lack of words she could scarcely express herself, so completely had she been cut off from the world.
Telling further of the strange life lived there with her father, Mary stated that Connor used a whistle to call her when for any reason her to come to the adjoining room in which he slept. As far as she could remember he had called her five times during the last week. It was at these times she stated that he criminally abused her, and she had been subjected to this abuse for the two years she had lived there.
Conner denied improper treatment of the child. He is about 35 years of age, and is employed as a laborer and employer, who comes to the trial to intercede in his behalf, hear the story of the little girl, he left the court room in disgust.
Mary is being held as a State's witness at the Home of the Good Shepherd to appear against her father when the trial comes up in Criminal Court.
Wrecks Auto, Kills Woman, When Chased
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 1
Half a dozen charges have been lodged against William Smith, 35 years old, of South Third street, Camden; driver of the car which turned over at Audubon Sunday night, pinning him and Eva Harley, 23 years old, of No. 724 Vankook street beneath it and causing injuries from which the young woman died in the Homeopathic Hospital. Smith is still in the hospital, severely cut and bruised, but will recover.
Smith was going south on White Horse pike when he refused to stop at the order of Ross Rollin, a traffic policeman at Haddon Heights. The latter commandered another machine and went in chase. They raced several miles to Lawside, where Smith turned when the officer's machine stalled. Later Rollin continued the chase Smith having turned and headed north. Going at terrific pace through the heavy traffic, the driver threw a gallon can of liquor out of the car at his pursuer. Later he sideswiped the car of Jeremiah Baker, of No. 727 Missouri avenue, Atlantic City, and ran over the foot of Richard Sproule, a traffic policeman at Haddon Heights. At Audubon he ran into a pole while going at terrific speed, upsetting the machine and burying the occupants beneath it.
It is charged by the police Smith was drunk and that he had a loaded revolver in his machine.

Church Board Meetings And Alleged Love Romance Feature Divorce Scandal
CHICAGO, Ill., May 1.—A mixture of church board meetings in the wee hours, an alleged illicit love, taxicab rides, and gifts of jewelry were aired before Judge Joseph Sabath when Mrs. Mary Murray, 3621 Wabash avenue, declared it was beyond her belief that her husband, Nathaniel Murray, steward, trustee, and treasurer of Greater Bethel A. M. E. Church, was detained at meetings of the trustee board almost every night until 3 a. m., and many mornings until 5 or 6.
Murray, who is well known and supposed to be wealthy, operates a hardware and crockery store at 3151 State street.
Claims Desertion
Murray brought suit for divorce against his wife, claiming that she deserted him on March 4. Through his attorneys, Ellis & Westbrooks, Mrs. Murray answered that she still occupies their home at 3621 Wabash avenue, as she has for the past several years.

Housing Problem In August Being Worked Out Now
When invitations were extended to both the National Organizations the Knight Templars and Shriners. The first question asked was: Can you house us? The committee said, "yes". They are going to make good on the proposition. After the housing committee was appointed with Capt. Samuel Jennings as chairman, the first move was to approach the Elks, and Odd Fellows, who also hold National Conventions here this summer. An agreement was soon reached, and all three organizations, Masons, Elks and Odd Fellows, are now working in harmony and together on this gigantic task.
The cards are so worded that if the party approached so desries they can promise to take the desired number of Masons for, one week. Elks for their week and Odd Fellows for their week. The price for a private home in no case will exceed $1.50 per person per night for lodging. Only those who pledge this will be signed up.
The paramount idea in this was, that if a house holder goes to the expense of new linens, cots or beds and beddings they will have a chance through the three conventions to recoup their expenses. The best homes in the city are being offered the committee and we anticipate no shortage of shopping places no matter how large they are. The smaller white hotels that are on the fringe of the colored section have already approached the committee as to their evening delegates and visitors.
Let no one stay away from Pittsburgh next August for fear they will have to sleep in the parks, for there will be a bed and a roof for every visitor. So says Sam.

She declared that although he could afford to ride to and from the "board meetings" in taxicabs, that in their twenty-four years of married life, he had bought her only one coat and two pairs of shoes. She said that her husband had subscribed $100 as a donation toward the church, he had failed to contribute anything for groceries and house rent.
She claims that her husband and his brothers have conspired to defeat her of her rights in the business which is conducted Murray at the State street address.
Mrs. Murray produced a receipt showing that Murray had spent $45.00 for a bracelet watch, but claims that he did not give it to her, neither did she ever see him wearing it. Her presumption is that he gave it to some other woman.
The suit is to be tried before Judge Joseph Sabath.

Hundreds Are Benefitted By Health Week
TUSKEGEE INSTITUTE, Ala.; May 1—The words of Dr. John A. Kenny, Medical Director of the Institute, "that no institution is doing more for the health of the Race than Tuskegee" were borne out by the stream of 450 patients, including 60 major operative cases, that poured into the John A. Andrew Hospital of the Institute for the 13th annual clinic of the John A. Andrew Clinical Society, March 31, April 5, which was brought to a close with a gala health parade "driving home" the teachings and dictums of the week and with the election of the following officers for the ensuing year: President, Dr. W. H. Brummitt of Talladega, Alabama; Vice-president, Dr. C. W. Reeves of Atlanta, Georgia and Secretary-Treasurer, Dr. John A. Kenny of Tuskegee Institute, Alabama. Over 100 physicians, surgeons and nurses from every section of the country attended the clinic. The annual-observance of the National Negro Health Week, which occurred during the same week, heightened to a considerable extent the attention and enthusiasm focused upon this movement.
The Clinic opened Monday morning, March 31, with more than 60 physicians present and a line of children, babes and adults in all stages of physical incapacitation, having walked, limped or been carried to this mecca of renewed health and happiness at the hands of expert physicians, specialists and sur-

Stage Attractions Brighten The Event Calendar for May Pinckney, Payne and McAbee Recitals—Imperial Art Players at the Nixon.
THERE are three unusual musical events scheduled for May, namely, The Estelle Pinckney Recital, May 12th, in St. James A. M. E. Church under the auspices of Mu Chapter, Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, A Musical Feast, May 23rd in Watt Auditorium under the auspices of Grace Presbyterian Lyceum, Mr. and Mrs. Robert A. Lewis, managers; the John Payne Concert at Ebenezer Baptist Church, May 12th. Miss Pinckney hails from Washington, D. C., with a flattering account of worthy comments as to the excellent singing quality of her voice.
The May 23rd concert will feature Mrs. Ruth Lee McAbee, soprano, of Baltimore, Maryland, and Ruby Blakey, Pittsburgh's sweetest tenor. The Ebeneszer recital will give localities an opportunity to hear Mr. Payne, who comes from London, England, decorated with royal awards and tenor for his great horn voice.
and favor of it.
As a fitting end to the month's stage offerings a very extraordinary event will be featured by the Imperial Art Players who will present the drama "Damon and Pythias" at the Nixon Theatre, Friday evening, May 30.
This company has just returned from the East, where they received the most flattering ovations and commendations.
In Baltimore, where they appeared at the Douglas Theater, they were not only able to please, but were fortunate in receiving special expressions of appreciation from such capable critics as Dr. West, city superintendent of education; Mrs. J. O. Spencer, formerly of New York and for years closely connected with high-grade amateur theatricals and others. The general sentiment expressed was that the performance was the best of its kind ever staged in Baltimore.
Mrs. Venzell Jones, who is directress of this group, promises that this play will surpass "A Mid-Summer Night's Dream," their initial performance here, which was so well received by the public last year.
Because of their dramatic ability, their initiative, their earnestness and sincerity of purpose these young people deserve the support and patronage of all who favor race elevation.
SOCIETY
Mr. and Mrs. William M. Jackson of 22 Watt street entertained a number of the younger set, Fri.ay evening, April 25, 1924, in honor of Dr. James K. Johnston of Temple University, Philadelphia, Pa. During the dinner a memorial engagement of their son Margaret R. to Dr. Johnston was announced. No date has been set for the wedding.
Announce Marriage ...

Beware of the Person Who Tells You Things In Strict Confidence
"I have trained myself never to use the words 'confidential' or 'in confidence', or 'This is under your hat', or 'This is graveyard stuff', or any other phrases by which men are accustomed to introduce subjects that ought better to be left undiscused. If a thing has to be told under the secret of secrecy it presumably should not be told at all. I have always been careful not to mention it when he starts in with 'confidently', I put on the muffler and think up interesting things to tell him about the weather; and what Napoleon said to his aid-de-camp at Waterloo."—American Magazine.

Members are being placed in homes of their own and are paying for them on a small weekly payment basis. Home owners are likewise able to improve their property in the same ready and easy way.
The association has grown under the careful supervision of its officers and directors until it has reached the substantial dividend paying stage a dividend of six percent having already been paid for 1923. Greatly encouraged by their past success the officers and directors announced a dividend when they hope to dispose of $500,000 worth (5,000 shares) of their stock. The campaign was launched at the annual meeting held at the St. James A. M. E. church. Thursday, April 17. At this meeting over 100 shares were sold.

This is the third straight year Lincoln has been successful. Howard University, in the selection and could not place. Be it said to their credit, however, they were up against classy schools. Bates finished first, Colgate second and Lafayette third. John Hopkins and Bucknell also ran. Time, 3:21 5, Jones, of Chester, made it for his school to win the Normal School championship by his clever running. He carried his colors from third place to the front and gave his anchor a lead of ten yards, which was enough. Capst. West did not run for W. & K. in the Class B championships and Dickinson set a new record.
Johnson, of Brooklyn Manual Training High school, picked up over 90 yards running anchor for his team in the Class B High school championships and landed second place. Here another time record was broken. Brooklyn Technical High school

W. E. Cook, of Virginia Union, was second in his heat in the 100 game: 11. Clarke, o. John Hopkins, national college, o. 16 champions. He was the second-spencer to pick the two best for the final he was defeated by Conway, of State, and Sullivan, of Boston College. Twenty thousand spectators were in the stadium on Friday when "our Charley" set out to renew his ownership of the five-event crown. The vital Spark captured the timing broad jump, with a leap of 22.14. He made the 1500 meters in 4.54.

He was not only closely pressed by Bruckman, of Oriental, and for the space of time it takes a woman to change her mind it looked as if the California flyer might win. Obersig, of Notre Dame football, finished a relay mark in the javelin throw, his toss being good for 196:2.5:8. Virginia Bale in Yale is a hair-line finish for the one-mile championship in 3:19 1.5. The world's record for this distance was set by the Penn team in 1921. Dr. Dewey Rogers was a member.
In the one-mile college freshman relay J. B. Johnson ran for Syracuse.
Young and Beller were among College College's entrants. Cheyenne finished a bad last against Drexel and, Susquahena. Durham school won a half-mile relay. Central High. of Philadelphia, had three colored boys on their team. In beating Frieda in the 100-meter he is truly the country's most remarkable athlete. He had been in one track g.l. three field events. With one hundred yards to go the Chicago star was leading him by several yards. He burst of speed the W. & J. captain creep up and passed Frieda and led him by 20 yards at the tape.

The Sportive Realm (Prospective and Retrospective)
**Carrying On**
The performances of our lads last week, in both physical and mental gymnastics, as occasioned in Charley West's "repeat," in the *Pentathlon;* DeHart Hubbard's two-ply win in the Drake Rejays and Billy Randolph's win of the Pittsburgh High School's Oratorical Derby, really gave the lie to those subscribed to the asinine theory as typified in the late President Harding's infamous Birmingham speech, of: "That inescapable difference," "Be the best Negro and not a crab imitation of the white man, etc., etc." No, by the gods, those boys didn't take that kind of perfidy serious; they didn't accept, even figuratively any such prechurchs, but rather subscribed to the theory that it was possible to be the very best man of any race if given the opportunity, that he wins for a bidding, that he's the kind of spirit that wins for a race or group, that he's the kind of spirit that inspires, encourages and enthuses. The kind of spirit demonstrated by courageous young men like West, Hubbard, Earl Johnson and Randolph shall some day catch us all, and in the insanity of the moment lift us from our lethargy and apathetic being into throbbing manhood and into the realm of life, liberty and things that are.

Firpo Teaches Rickard A Lesson
Luis Angel Firpo, the eccentric Argentine fighter, appears to have sent his final ultimatum to Tex Rickard, to the effect that the famed Wild Bull will never again climb through the ropes to do battle in a contest promoted by the wily Tex. Rickard, like most white men, appears somewhat non-plussed over the attitude of the South American fighter, who is not a man of color. Rickard is Madison Square Garden opines and he is not alone in his wonderment, that money should buy anything desired on this planet. It is here that the swarthy Latin takes a stand on a principle that is beyond Rickard and his fellow American Dollar Hounds. For the sake of money Firpo claims that he was rushed into a fight with Dempsey long before he was ready and lost the championship thereby. Rickard held the whip over him in the form of a contract which literarily demanded that he not be disgraced. For this apparent disgraced of the Latin's feelings and future which were both sacrificed for expedition, Rickard loses one of the greatest drawing cards known to fistians.

Personally, we feel that it was a few little things that transpired during that hectic first round in the memorable battle of last September 14, which is the real sore spot in Firpo's feelings. At various times since the cyclonic clash, the South American or his friends have claimed, among other things, a short count, failure of the champion to retire to his corner after the first and second knockdowns, to say nothing of the other victories. The writer is out of the ring, but the writer is of the opinion that it was the stern slap on the arm and the voice of harsh admonition, in a foreign tongue, directed to Firpo by Referee Gallagher, upon the occasion of the first clinic, which clearly perturbed the challenger; caused him to turn his head in a fractional second of mind-lapse, which really gave Dempsey a big advantage to score a crushing left to the jaw and started Firpo on his way. Whether this little play of Johnny Gallagher's was part of the program Dempsey was playing, or whether it all occurred same company) were working, we are, of course, unable to say but we are of the opinion that it was such treatment as that—which caused Firpo in his reflective moments to refuse to allow himself as being the means of making a lot of money for the surethung troupe of Kearns Rickard and Dempsey.

Charles Fred White, Philadelphia, member of the Pennsylvania State Boxing Commission, made Pittsburgh this week and after attending a session of the commission, attended the Motor Square Garden show Monday evening. The commission, which is housed in the Grand Hotel in Champtown, Tampa to tell the assembled "bugs" what a helioplea place Pennsylvania would like to be. As a speaker, the rotund Philadelphia should confine his efforts to writing sports. He is a wise old bird, alright, as he sensed the heckling the gallery gods (his pale face brothers) were getting ready to fight. He would like to know just how many meetings Mr. Roach and our own little "shrinking violet" here in Pittsburgh have with Mr. White "voting but not present."

Va. Union Wins Three Games; Out For Title
By Chester L. Washington
RICHMOND, Va., May 1—Last
Friday, the Union Panther baseball
aggregation whitewashed the Howard
University Bison nine by the
score of 14 to 2 on Hovey Field
before a large crowd of enthusiastic
fans. This victory makes the fourth
straight for the -Union team, they
having downed Lincoln, 5; held Virginia
Norman, 4; and Industrial Institute 4-3
and enveloped Howard all within a
period of 11 days.
The Union nine is truly a great team this year and the infield has stood out pre-eminently during the past, few games when outfield fun activities got gell fashion. Last season, Captain Adams has been shifted to second base and has been playing the game of his life; Shields, a new "find" hailing from a Petersburg high school, a derful throw and has been placed in the shortstop position in a creditable manner. Shields was sent out on mound duty and was able to blank the Hampton Seasiders last week until the last imminent he loosened up and allowed the visitors three runs, making the final
Gregory, last year's first sacker, has gone into the outfield and has been succeeded by J. W. Jackson, a lanky Westerner, who scoop 'em up on the initial base. Harry, who is just as reliable as and is holding down the third base this year admirably. The catching department which at the first of the year seemed to be the weakest department, has been to a great extent the work of the Barksdale at the receiving station is standing out. Merritt, as usual, is the pitching "ace" and he has a good co-worker in the person of Shields. Dudley also still fit for mound turned in a brilliant man in the Howe game by almost blanking the visitors.
The outfield has been greatly improved by the addition of the dependable and speedy outfield branch, who is showing his great position, form in the center and near position. Eddie Gregory is in the left field. Gregory is in a real ground-cover in the right hand end of the lot. A wealth of good material is in reserve ready for action. With all the "cogs" in Union nine hittin' at Union, it is very apparent that Union will be one of the winning contenders and perhaps the winner of the season's C. I. A. A. championship.
EASTERN SPORT FLASHES

The tennis season opened in full on Monday, the 26th course of the Ideal Tennis Club, in West 135th street, New York City. A nearly 100 percent increase in the tennis firmament were on hand. Among chess, the near-greats in the tennis firmament were on hand. Among chess, Frank Jones, E. E. Edmunds, E. Gomes, and Brownblin. Among chess, Linda Wade, its stono champion, Sulei Malin, Ayers Salah, George Smith, Eanna Leonard and Tiger Flowers the Alabama battler, will come to Harlem once more. Flowers has been signed up by Jesse Mahon for three tournaments, with the place, Commonwealth Casino on Saturday evening, May 2.

Harry Greb and Eid Norfolk each drew a six month suspension from the U.S. tennis mission, for the poor display made in their recent engagements. The poor display made in their recent engagements did not save him from the fee of the commission.
It took Panama Joe Guns eight rounds to displace the Commonwealth Sporting Club Saturday night last, but when Palmer went down he was there before the great Gatsby. Just as ever at the Renaissance, dancing has replaced the Thursday night basketball games at St. Mark's Hall in West 128th street. Ena Mae Guns, popular little Missouri tennis prodigy, got off. Mrs. Glis is determined to supplement her course in physical training with a variety of outdoor activities. It may seem absurd to put a notice on the column, but since the candidate for the holy order is no less a personago than an oracle, she must be some excuse for this infringement.

All the frills of an opening day were tendered to the fans.

Charles Fred White, one of the members of the Pennsylvania Athletic Association, sent the teams into action by tossing up the first

Harrisburg put a three in the inning for Charles-ton tied up the going in the sixth and incidentally finished the Red Head's stay in the box. The home team took the lead in the eighth by scoring a run, but the Giants evened it again in the ninth and the game-remained sewed up the top's sensation held hostily for twelfth. Winters hurled the last six innings for Hildale and "Nip" mowed down seven of the Giants on strikes. Santoy was the hitting star with a brace of doubles and a home run.

Johnny McCormick makes at Motor Square Garden, had the bout unprotected the other day, but gave it up when he learned that the fighters had signed for a return bout in Boston.

Browns Win Pair From Pittsburgh
CLEVELAND, O, May 1—Knocking the offering of Smith and Melix to all parts of the lot, and aided by errors of commission and omission on the part of the visiting club, the Cleveland Browns, strengthened by the addition of MeAdoo, former St. Louis first baseman, won from the Pittsburgh Giants, here, Sunday, 25-8, in the first game of a double header.
Smith returned to the mound for the Pittsburghers in the second game and after getting away to a poor start, settled down, with the result that a real game was witnessed by the close to 3,000 spectators who swarmed the field.

Grays Hit Ball Hard; Win Two From Cumberland
Home Run Orgy Shows Power Of Homestead Clan
Beckwith, Owens and Harris Get Circuit Clouts — Williams in Second Triumph.
Running their string of victories up to three, the Homestead Grays, strengthened by the appearance of Cannady in the lineup, and with their great offensive sweeping over the opposition with little or no resistance, gave the Cumberland Colts a double beating here Saturday and Sunday, winning the first game 8-3 and triumphing in the second engagement, 14-6.
Win First Game Easily
Oscar Owens, "Speed-ball" King, occupied the mound for the Grays in the opening contest. The Grays took advantage of misplays in the first and second innings, scoring six runs and putting the game on ice.
Jap Washington clouted a circuit blast in the first stanza and started the visitors on the path to victory. After the second inning, both teams put up a great fight.
Beckwith and Owens, the Gray battery, led in hitting, Beckwith rapping out a pair of two baggers, while Owens connected for two doubles and a single.
"Lefty" Williams a Puzzle On Sunday, Lefty Williams, the Gray's star southpaw, won his second game in as many starts. He was easily assisted by the Gray wrecking crew. Home run hits by Owens, Harris and Beckwith, mixed with other long hits with men on the bases were too much for the home crew. Beckwith, with two doubles and a home run, led the attack. Scores:

He is the first man ever to repeat in this event. The Washington boy deserves to have his praises sung from the house-tops. Elsewhere we discuss the relays at length.
Consider the case of McDonald, pitching ace on the staff of the Philadelphia Giants, which, to our interpretation, is one for "the book." Mac is a hurler of real skill, which three no-hit games last year prove. But Mac has a weakness. That weakness is a colored man with a baseball bat. He can no more get a ball past one of them than the Prince of Wales can stay on a horse's back. But just start him against a white team and watch him do his stuff. That's where he is the curly-haired wolf. Those are the guys who were made to order for him. He beats them and makes them like it.

Panama Joe Gans knocked out Jack Palmer of Philadelphia in New York on Saturday night in the ninth round of their scheduled twelve-round fight at the Commonwealth Club. Until that time the Southwark Italian had had the better of the mixing. The Panama person weighed in at 152 and Gans at 156.
We idly wonder if Gans could be coaxed into the ring again with the ambitious and able Joseph Libby? Here is a possible bout which might interest the ball park promoters.
Hunter Johnson was in Philly last week for the relays. Hunter has not missed the relays for many years. The East seems to have done this veteran coach and trainer a world of good. He looks fit to push Paddock himself in the furlong.
We like the way that Louis Napoleon Santop is beginning this baseball season. We had an engagement elsewhere so did not see the Harris-Rhilldale opener, but our substitute observer says that Top was the life of the party. He had one run, two doubles, a homer and nine putouts. His over-the-wall slam in the twelfth with Baby Doll Mackey on second, won the game, 6-4. For some players this would be considered a week's work, but Santop is in there trying every day. Mackey with three doubles and Charleston kicking in with a homer and double were also very much in the game.
Curry started for the Darby boys, but he retired in the third when he hurt his shoulder. Ryan hurled till the seventh and was relieved by Winters. George Fiall was a sensation at short for the Capitol crew.
The Brooklyn Cuban Giants, a new aggregation headed by John B. Johnson, H. Gibbs and A. Brown, whose literature modestly announces them as "Colored Champions of Greater New York," are working their way home from a successful training trip through the Carolinas. Johnson has several youngsters in his camp and they have been showing great promise. They are Creek, catcher; Peay, first baseman; Smith, second, and Mark Reed, short.
Albritton of the Potomac and Black Sox, Grady, Reed, Woods and DuBose are candidates for the heaving corps.
Charles E. Holmes of Newark has his American Giants about ready for the road. Observers say that the Newark boys are a strong, well-balanced outfit and capable of making trouble for a lot of them. Holmes is trying to arrange a trip west during the latter part of May. He would play in Harrisburg, Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.
Six hundred and fifty-six schools and colleges sent 4,000 athletes to the Penn Relays this year. In that number were several hundred of our boys who worked with varying success. Of course, West stood out and so did Lincoln when they won the championship of their class. But the other boys who tried and failed they deserve just as much praise as the ones who tried and won. Maryland Normal finished a bad last, but they tried. Cheyney was third in an event where but three teams contested, but they did their best. The boy from Lower Merion who staked his team to a hundred-yard loss on the first lap doubtless felt worse about it than the teammates. But he tried.
The boy from Brooklyn Manual, for West Chester Normal and had some measure of success are heroes today with us. Cook of Virginia, Union, who made his presence felt in the dashes and was always pressing the leaders, gets a line from us for the form he displayed. Only the champions beat him to the tape and next year he may be the champion himself.
Negro newspapers were poorly represented in the press box. Our press associations and all Eastern papers should have had men there, but we saw but three writers in the coop. They were Garcia of the Amsterdam News and Howe and Rainey of the local papers. Oh, well—
DeHart Hubbard Outclasses Big Field At Relays
DES MOINES, Ia., May 1—Participating in the famous Drake relay events, DeHart Hubbard, the University of Michigan's greatest athlete, qualified in the broad jump and the hop, step and jump here Friday. Hubbard completely outclassed the entire field, performing in a manner which convinced his admirers that he is ready to uphold the honors of America in the Olympic games.
Hubbard qualified for two events, breaking the Drake record in the broad jump with a leap of 24 feet, 2% inches.
The former mark of 23 feet, 3 inches was established by Bradley of Kansas in 1922, Hubbard, who holds the American intercollegiate record of 48 feet 10% inches in the hop, step and jump led the qualifiers for this event with a leap of 45 feet 2 inches.

Detroit Stars In 14-2 VictoryOver Daniels Sales
DETROIT, Mich., May 1—Detroit Stars had no trouble winning from Daniels Sales Sunday afternoon, 14 to 2. Thorne lasted only three innings against the overslaught of the Stars, but Burns, who relieved him was pounced on for enough hits to score seven runs in the fourth frame and the game took on a one-sided aspect. Daniels Sales collected seven hits but was not able to bunch them to good advantage. Combs was nicked for five blows in the four innings he worked, but Alexander, who relieved him, held the opponents safe at all times.

The work-year class came next with 6 points, and the freshman class was last with 4 points.
Jamaica Champ Will Not Enter Tennis Tourney
KINGSTON, Jamaica, B. W. I. May 1—B. M. Clark, Jamaica's tennis champion, will not enter the national tennis tourney at Baltimore this summer as expected. Instead he will enter the Davis cup matches in Wilmington next summer.
Clark may leave here sometime in May for England, in order to have a few weeks' practice on the English courts before the contests start. The light in England is very different from what it is here and whereas Jamaica has hard grass courts, the English courts are turfed. These conditions he will have to get used to before he plays in the plays in the championship events.
He will play in the championship singles, and pair with N. A. Rudolf in the doubles championship. These two, with T. Evenly, will make up the Jamaican team abridged.

Politicians and the People
WHEN politicians forget the people whose interests are to be served by political organizations, the lot of the people is a sad one. Pittsburgh is now suffering of political hysteria, with the acute attack centered in city council. Human memory, when convenient, is a most glorious thing; but when it is convenient to forget, the mind is as treacherous as it ever isorious.

Pittsburgh is now suffering of political hysteria, with the acute attack centered in city council. Human memory, when convenient, is a most glorious thing when it is convenient to forget, the mind is as treacherous it ever is glorious.
We have daily newspapers whose columns are devoted to signifying the refusal of the majority of City Council to listen to the dictates of Mayor Marge. These same dailies forget, because it is convenient, that when Mr. Babcock was mayor, the over-ridden members of the same Council allowed no opportunity to embarrass the mayor to escape their highest improvement. Well do we remember when Mayor Babcock could not confirm such men as Prichard, Brown, Alderders and others of his selection. That was when the Oliver-ridden Council was in majority. Our dailies could not then see the "polls" in Council.
Our memories run back with amusement, when we see the members of Council reduced to a minority by the people and observe their politics in behalf of, NOT THE PEOPLE, by our mayor.

Commutation Not Requested
IF OUR reports are reliable, and we have every reason to rely upon them, there has been some mistake made as to the petition filed with President Coolidge in behalf of the soldiers now at Leavenworth, Kansas. It is reported that there has been extended to some of them a commutation of sentence. It is even reported that not all of the men are-included in this order of commutation.

It is reported that the appeal has been extended to some of them a commutation of sentence is even reported that not all of the men are included in the order of commutation.
Evidently those to whose hands the President referred the appeal are mistaken as to what was desired, and respectful requested. The petition asked the President to pardon the men. NOT COMMUTE their sentences.
The Pittsburgh Courier is in possession of facts, not fiction that these men have not been fairly dealt with from the beginning.

Go to High School, Go to College

Not that all of us need a college education, but that not sufficiently educated with only grade school training, is a burden of the message which went all over this country during the campaign week. The Negro can not get along with simi-grade school education. It is not enough to stimulate de-termination, ambition, nor initiative in boy or girl. It require more than a grade school training to give to the boy or girl. Stimulation needed to launch out into the world's great con-figured mothers and fathers before we can hope to have esti-lished a background for refinement and culture. We are ge-lessly without refinement in many instances where educa-tion so has been sufficient. We can never rise among peo-nt until refinement, through education, becomes a natural easy trait as common to us as our racial instincts.
Let the slogan ring out: "Go to High School. Go to a-lege," and keep going until we catch the inspiration of edu-cation, and once we are sufficiently inspired we shall need no co-ignitions to urge us to higher stations in the scale of hun-iving.

Governor Pinchot
THE people of Pennsylvania relegated their Governor to treat on April 22. His passing was due to his "too much talking" and too much aping of Roosevelt. There is successor to Roosevelt. Not even the sons of the Territory offer us any hope of a duplicate of the original. Pinchot is a sad failure as an imitator. Aside from the "pledge to loyalty" program of the Governor, he encountered what seemed to be an insatiable desire to dictate what laws shall be enforced over and in preference to any other laws. For example, he was simply crazy to see laws against liquor enforced TO SUIT PINCHOT. But we never heard him say one word about enforcing the laws age-old, gambling, discrimination on account of color, the age of 1887, nor automobile stealing. All these crimes are as

But we have never heard him say one word about enforcing the laws against adultery, gambling, discrimination on account of color, the Act of 1887, nor automobile stealing. All these crimes are as common, if not more common, than violations of the Volsted law. Yet the Governor runs wild on the bases trying to have the Volsted law enforced to suit his own personal desires.
But there is a reason. He wants to ride into the White House on prohibition. But that horse is saddled for a house not quite so white. The man who seeks to ride into the White House on prohibition must prohibit more than liquor.
To add insult to injury. Mr. Pinchot accepted a place on the Republican ticket. was elected as Governor by the Republican party, and was sworn in office as an officer of that party.

EDITORIAL OF THE WEEK
The Negro In Chicago Politics
THE result of the recent primary election in the State of Illinois presents a few lessons for the politician obsessed. Six Negroes were nominated for the state running for the United States from the first district was defeated.
The surprising fact in the matter is the lack of support of the colored papers of Chicago for Attorney Nathan Taylor, who ran against Martin B. Madden for Congress. The Defender, The Whip and The Enterprise failed to render the service to the colored man that you would expect from race papers, especially for the other matters. Mr. Taylor more support than The Defender or the Whip. We must have race men in Congress and our newspapers must support these candidates.
When it comes to portraying race and scandal of the race both The Defender and the Whip are there in the largest red headlines that they can print. When it comes to rendering the race a real service and justifying their support by the race, both papers have the continued support of his candidate. By the Defender and the Whip, as well as The Enterprise was a service that the race had a perfect right to expect from these papers.
The election of Mr. Taylor to the United States Congress, instead of Martin B. Madden, would have been one of the greatest victories that the Negro could have won in the coming November election. The race is without a colored man in the United States Congress but, to be, and behold, the supposed race papers deserved the race candidate for the white man solely because the Republican party controls those papers.
Negro newspapers that headline race and scandal to the exclusion of other news, are greater enemies of the race than the most raid Southern white paper. The white paper in headlineing Negro crime is carrying out its principles of race prejudice, while the Negro paper that does it, is a traitor to the race.
The Chicago Defender has the largest circulation of any colored paper in this country. It is sold on more white newstands than any other colored paper and is no doubt read by more white people than all the rest of the colored papers. It is not fair to the race for The Defender, as the exponent of the race, to headline and print practically all of its front page in crime and scandals. The race is the better side of, and to defend against all adverse influences. On the contrary, it carries an awful indictment against the race every time it is issued with those flaming headlines of crime and scandal.
Back to the elections. The fact that six Negroes were nominated for state positions, some for the State Legislature, and the fact that Mr. Taylor, though defeated, made a good showing in Chicago, along with the newspapers, failed the race in this one outstanding instance, the masses of the people are sound and true if they are properly led. There is among leaders too much of the spirit of "I can't, you shan't" in Chicago, coupled with the proverbial subservience to the white man. Mr. Madden remained in Washington and the Negro leaders in Chicago would rather nominate him than a colored man who was there on the ground. The first district of Chicago, as well as a Negro from that district could represent them. Then, consider the inspiration it would be to the race all over this country for the first district of Chicago to assert its rights and send a race representative to Washington.

Do You Know the People You Are Trying To Deal With
"My chief occupation, all my life, has been to study people. When I was editor of the New York 'Evening World', I used to go over among the swarming millions of the East and West sides of the city; because it was there that we must build up our circulation if it was to be a large one; there, among the masses, no one would be able to do it after night for that is the free time of workers on an evening paper — I would stroll about the East Side streets and listen to the women gossiping on the loorsteps. I always carried an ample supply of cigars. I would stop beside a group of men and, by a judicious use of these cigars, I would become one of the group. I would know what these people talked about; what they liked; what interested them. I must know that, in order to get out a newspaper that would appeal to them." —E. A. Grezier.

Editor, Pittsburgh Courier,
Sir, I received the copies of the
papers I received for some weeks go,
and was very much impressed with the paper.
The editors are very instructive.
If your paper was taken into the homes of the colored people and the editors carefully read and put in the practice, it would bring a minor interest and close business relation with each other as a race.
There are so many of our people who find fault of the race journals, and yet, they would not subscribe for the paper or do anything to the race journals, so many race enterprises go to the wall. Simply lack of support from the race. If our race is conducting a nice clean business, let us help to make it a success. It is race pride. It will help the present generation and make a positive argument to the coming generation.

GENERAL CHARLES G. DAWES has reported that Germany can pay. His plan carries with it a loan to Germany so that she can readjust her monetary system that has been demoralized by the collapse of the mark. She is also promised the control of the Ruhr and the Rhineland, which France has occupied for more than 12 months.
France comes first in preparations to the extent of the cost of her army of occupation. The United States is to receive the costs of the American army that was for four years on the Rhine.
The Dawes plan means putting Germany on her feet. It also means allaying French fears and English suspicion of France. It will mean the world of Europe. It will mean prosperity and the world of business for Europe will be a constant buyer in the work of reconstruction in the wake of counter-marching warfare.
the former allies have signified their intention of accepting Mr. Dawes' plan. If they do probably the most vexing problem following the signing of the Veranilles treaty is about to be solved amicably and peacefully.
CHARLES F. MURPHY is dead. For twenty-two years he led New York's Tammany Hall and became nationally known as one of the few political big machine bosses of the country. From the humble "Gashouse District" on East Side to a post
Murphy's rise from a horse-car conductor and saunoleeper to the bosship of the New York State Democratic machine shows his force of character. It reveals in the understanding, persistence, perseverance, keen human insight, even if it does not show lofty idealism and unselfish public service. Murphy served Tammany and Tammany served him. He became a "cezar" and brooked not that he was true to his ideals as its followers.
During his reign at the Wigwam in Fourteenth street, Murphy nominated five winners out of six mayoralty candidates named by himself, nominated four winners out of eleven gubernatorial candidates named by himself. He had hoped to make Alfred E. Smith as the Democratic nominee for the Presidency
Murphy established a reputation for fair dealing among Negroes in Harlem. His attitude caused an alarming number of traditional Republican voters to rally to his standard at municipal elections, ness to color Harlem. His encouragement in action strengthened the strength of the vote cast brought communication from men of both parties.
Murphy will be sadly missed in Madison Square Garden this month. Smith may suffer defeat on account of absence from the councils of the mighty when the crucial point comes and the delegates look to their "boss" to name the man who carry their standard before the people next November."
ROLLIN LYNE HARTT begins a series of articles in the May number of the "World's Work" on "When the Negro Comer North." The first study, "An Exodus and Its Causes," is unusually fair in that the writer, a white man, presents clearly the point of the Negro's frivolousness, no damning or unfavorable to the whites.
The particular points of interest to be noted in Mr. Hartt's investigations and inquiries are the statements credited to various Negro leaders. There is Andrew F. Stevens (mispainted Alexander Stevens) of Philadelphia banking firm of Brown Stevens, an asking of saying that he is no room for them, that he's not stand the climate."
It is hard to believe that Mr. Stevens' in his right mind, would have spoken like this. He who was sent to the Pennsylvania Legislature by migrant voters from all parts of the country centered in and about South, Broad and Lombard streets, has proven shamelessly ungrateful. He whose partner, Edward Cooper Brown, the directing genius of their extensive realty holdings, is himself a migrant, and he whose vancement is based on the support of the innate worth of migrant workers, has moved from the hand of his city, has without apology bitten the hand that is feeding him. If Mr. Stevens is not guilty, then let him, hastily correct the quotation.
Bibb of the Chicago Whip, who is usually wrong and seldom right, even crops up here with his destructive platform. The statement attributed to him is the tendency of his editorial policy. But his scathing and biting pessimism which he cloaks with a false race pride that will not bare examination by the way. Bibb will yet bet that those who sanction the brand of propaganda are few and far between.
Several sane and well-backed statements are made. Editor Vann told Mr. Hartt: "The chief cause of migration at present is the disillusionment that has spread far and wide through our black race since the war. Their miserable lives have been Crowned in defeat the war, precisely as he had been Jim-Crowned in the South before the war, bred a great discontent, a great restlessness, a great determination somehow to escape." Then Mr. Hartt continues his article: "This becomes the more plausible when one recalls that a speech of President Wilson's to colored preachers at the White House in 1917 was reported by the entire Negro population as declaring: 'With thousands of your sons in the camps in France, out of his conflict you must expect' nothing less than your
AMONG GOOD BOOKS
BLACK MAGIC, by Kenneth L. Roberts. The Bobbs-Merrill Company, Publishers, Indianapolis, Ind. 250 pages. Price, $2.50.
KENNETH L. ROBERTS is perhaps best known for his feature articles in The Saturday Evening Post. His present book, "Black Magic," is a collection of those articles dealing with the political situation in Italy, an unfamiliar subject. It is the probable need of a like principle in America. It is an exposition and narrative of the rise of Benito Mussolini from the ranks of a soldier and editor to his capturing the Italian premiership with the aid of his Black Shirts. Then there is a brief account of the abortive Fascist move in Bavaria, and final victory in the Italian Civil War. "Grateful Conservatives"—these being sarcastically and contemptuously aimed at certain radical and conservative Americans whose extremity of views and political excess on the one hand, and the lack of public interest and political inertia on the other leads the author to conclude (rather sharply) that "Black Magic" might be called in as a last resort some day to save Italy, country, just as it rose spontaneously to redeem Italy.

State Hughes said before the Republican state recently: "The best assurance the country) is the character of Californii The philosophy of the President these words: complete independence means dation and co-operation. From arises the oft-repeated law of ourselves only as we help others and an understanding of others is necessary in order to make our One of the pre-commission try at the present time is to phasize in the public mind. The danger to society is not the failure to maintain its position in the direction of the failing ideals.
Every American who reads this article must pride in the man who thus expresses his is the essence of an idealism just now being our public life. It is a platform upon which men can stand in the street which, if adhered to, express the health of the American people in the integrity of their public servants. And it is doubtting that Mr. Coolidge will adhere to enunciates.
Thus speaking, the President has a man-made support of the solid people of the race.
THE propaganda against "inferior" races is by years popularized by Lothrop Stoddard and Mr. Grant is beginning to draw from non-Newton bitter replies. An example of this is an article in April Current History, by one John J. Smirtke "The Claim of 'Nordic' Race Superiority" Describes writer ridicules the claims the authors turned to, but the Coleridge that "A race be great, right to be compressed in its increased nations more civilized than itself."
Those who read the debates in Congress on the cent immigration question could not but be amazed the extravagant notions, both for and against the admitting of foreigners into this country. Lators of foreign extraction, the American public being enraged into the active-born statement, felt like restricting migration altogether rather than merely limiting this country, has a right to say who shall remain as a part of the American people, but what authority is reserved for the "Anglo-Saxon" state and not the whole country, spite work will not allow it. The polls. And, if that is the true Saxon's, may not prove so formidable after all.
SPRING is here. The soft and invigorating truth that we longed for in mid-winter have had most of us feel "as fit as a fool" of us feel that we must be on the point. This explains the great out-of-doors that can ready begin and will continue six months hence. The tenure athletic, outings and vacations will be center of the stage. Golf, baseball, fishing, yachting, bathing and many other forms of recreation and making merry is in season once more.
Those of greater means may begin preparing their trip to Atlantic City, Shad's laboratory in Coney Island or Bear Mountain. Those of lesser means can begin preparing in just basking in the pausing in some shady nook and exciting the sheer joy of living.
It is good that the seasons change. They are a chance to relax and shift our position in the history of existence. It is restful, helpful and always promising of greater happiness.
REPRESENTATIVE WILL WOOD of Indiana April,16 introduced a resolution in the House Representatives "to create a commission to cure plans and designs for and to erect a memorial or memorial building in the City of Wichita in memory of the Negro soldiers who who lost in the wars of our country and the late World War. A relief when the Mammy Sagitation is remembered. But since that unfortunate slur has officially died the death of the unlamented not sadly missed, the new proposal comes with inspiration to those who feared that the man publicly humiliated under an "anarchy" that it will be commensurate with the dignity of memory to which it will be dedicated.
Credit for the success of the monument offered far is attributed to the National Memorial Association of which Ferdinand D. Lee is president. The association was organized in 1875. After eight years in existence, it is fruitful.
Let us hope that Congress will pass this bill go far toward making our passions more self-serving.

It was in the days before Panama knew anything of modern fire fighting. Of course, it had a Corps of Bombermen made up of the sons of bombermen made up of the sons of the smart, sea-light-faced youths who died of fire scarlet flannel shirts and immaculate white trousers. But actual fire fighting is a strenuous business; and the word "strenuous" had not yet pierced the enervated consciousness of the young men of Panama.

Pittsburgh THE Courier AMERICA'S BEST WEEKLY
a set of Viking Kings trudged up Bolivar street. In front of them, 10 blocks away, rose mountains of roaring flames. Bursting and cracking and sweeping everything before it. Petroleum! Cool as cucumbers the sailors went as far as the heat would permit and manipulated the nearest hydrant. There were only about fifty of them; but if there were fifty cool-headed men in the Republic on that tragic March morn, it was those fifty. The spiggoties shouted and fumed and howled stupid orders. They spouted tons of water on a bank building at least a mile from the onrushing flames. The police blew their whistles and clubbed right and left.
"Ah, Sablo! Sablo's Bar! My God!"
On rushed the fire. A block away —no, half a block—it menaced Sabo's Bar. Madre De Dios! In it, piled high to the ceiling, were hundreds of casks of wine and rum and vermouth. Not a soul dared touch it. Eating up the very sand thrown at it by the men from the Manod-nock, the fire licked the shingles of Sabo's Bar. It roared. A wind sprang up. Its pace accelerated. Half of the roof was gone. Back —back —to the crossing at Fifth street the humidity sent the mobs Crackling, roaring, the fire enveloped Sabo's Bar. It, zoomed like a mountain of burning tar. Into the blackscreen of smoke that covered the heavens, shots, like sky rockets, burst and dropped on nearby houses. Explosion after explosion rocked the earth as the fire hit Sabo's demijohns of liquor. Fowls screeched, pigs squealed—only to simmer down to a tragic monotonous silence.
In Fifth street, just above the jail, crowds flowed into the Catholic church. One spot of holy ground! Its spire in the night looked to the frenzied refugees like a light house to a storm-tossed ship. Away down in the bowels of El Barrio Rojo, girls remembered it — thought of feeling to it. But already too soon, the Colony did begin to chime. In front of it thousands of folk, not caught in the entangling net of El Barrio Rojo, fell on their knees and asked God for mercy.
The conquest of Sabio gave the fire a new lease on life. It spread to Bottle alley and Cash street. It cracked and roared and bristled as it sent volumes of smoke puffing to the heavens. Viewing it from the "Zone," the American border, one saw a city go up in flames and crumble like a hay stack. On the commissary pasture one looked across on the smoking desert which was once El Barrio Rojo. Nothing remained.
V
Towards dawn, the ships entering the harbor saw, on the crest of the sharply whitening clouds, a spot of rosy pinkness. It blossomed in a jiffy into something more. It colored the amphitheater' of clouds. They saw, etched on the heavenly canvas, outlines of lams and sheep and shepherds whose white curly heads reminded them of the North—of home—of cauliflowers.
But on shore a wail went up. The last fire had consumed that same part of the city but ten years ago. History was repeating itself. Lower Cash street was a graveyard of ruins. Slowly the embers died down. Among refugees wailing and mourning on the lawn one saw but few scarlet folk. Not a single one of the revelers had survived. Mostly women and weeping children with beds and mattresses and other household goods. In the other side of the city, Broadway, it was the same way. Crowds of mothers crying over lost loved ones—but not an echo of the neurotic life of El Barrio Rojo. That was completely wined out!
Some of the wiscacres of police headquarters said it had originated upstairs at the Red Raven. A Spanish girl, on her way to greet a Mexican enmorado, had met an old discarded sweetheart on the stairs. Words followed. The Mexican, blind with rage, drew a knife, and the girl ran in flight. As he was about to tear the heart out of the girl, the woman keeping lamp at him instantly the place was aflame. But the Mexican, unmoved by the girl's piercing cries, refused to open the door. He died holding the knob.
As Captain Wingate staggered into his cabin, at noon that day—wet, black, drunk with fatigue—Ezekiel, the Negro cabin boy, was there, cleaning up the ashes—as cool and as prophetic as if nothing had happened.

HIS FIRST WIFE'S PHOTO (EDWARD DAVENPORT)
(Continued from last week)
"66 A H-ER, I beg pardon, opening the door again. I must have got into the wrong place."
"Don't you want your fortune told?" her smooth voice changing to a rasp.
"I believe not today, thank you," said Jean from the outside of the door.
"Well, I can tell you this much free," hissed the faint-hearted shewolf with the soft voice, and blue eyes, disappointed at having missed the dollar. "You will receive bad news at the breakfast table on the eve of your birthday."
This voluntary information frightened Jean so badly that she entirely forgot what she had intended to ask the old hag about. She was several squares away before she could collect her thoughts enough to remember what the object of her visit was.
"Well, I don't care if I didn't get to ask her, I know Guy loves me." I was getting engaged so she should go home. At 4:45 that afternoon a big green Dodge coupe drew up in front of the Miller and Mueller piano store, on the corner of Franklin street and Lake, just one block west of where Jean had entered the photographers, and Dr. Guy Alcott alighted from it and went inside.
The salesman was very courteous, as salesmen are when the possibility of making a sale looks promising, in showing him the different styles and grades of pianos (by way of feeling the size of his pocket-book) when Dr. Alcott stopped before a magnificent mahogany Aeolian player-piano and asked its price.
"A thousand dollars for that instrument? What is it, gold on the insides? Yes, sir," said the agent, ignoring the sneering remark, that artistic instrument for the beggarly sum of only one thousand dollars. That's our price, which is a very small profit over the cost of production and transportation and drayage," he blundered.
"Indeed! I should say that twelve

The salesman pondered. "I think
we can manage it."
"Good," said the doctor in a pleased tone, and after he had given him further instructions, he went out the door.
"And, by the way," said he, speaking back through the partly opened door, "sees that all the men wear rubber heels and bring nothing, but whispers along with them; the latter only to such extent as will facilitate the transfer of the piano to the house."
With assurances from the salesman that his instructions would be carried out in detail Doctor Alcott entered his car and made a dash for home.
Well, I guess that ought to show her that I love her more than I do Louise's picture." He chuckled as he rode alone.
It was 5 o'clock before Jean got back from her trip downtown. She changed to a neat house dress and came downstairs just in time to meet Guy as he came in the front door. He almost crushed her in an embrace, then he went into the sitting room and fumed himself into a big rocker. Instinctively his eyes went to the corner, where Louise's picture hung. A dark staircase on paper showed the soothing small and delicate to hang there. But not something, where was it? Gone. He stared wide-eyed at the spot for almost a minute, then passed his hand over his eyes and stared again. It was gone. Louise's photo was gone from the spot where she had hung it with her own hands. He looked inquiringly at Jean and he

flushed, but never opened her lips.
Neither did Guy. He simply took the evening paper from the library table and feverishly began unfolding it. Jean noticed the heart-broken expression on his face and felt more like crying than doing anything else. She started to the kitchen to instruct Fanny about dinner. Then Guy-spoke.
From the very moment that he had discovered that the little photo was misgiven, he had maintained the silence of a Sphinx, but inwardly he was fighting an awful battle. It was a choice between the living and the dead, but reason finally came to his rescue.
"Jean," he called.
"Yes," without turning around.
"I love you like everything," little girl."
Jean could not answer. She hurried to the dining room door, successfully pinched her finger in it and burst into tears.
“What's the matter? What did you do?” He jumped up and ran to her.
“I—I must have mashied my finger in that—that old door,” she sobbed, while he smoothed and patted the little red spot, and called the door pretty names. He had to do this regularly for five days until all the red had disappeared. The morning of the 23d arrived. Jean and Gay were at breakfast.
“Jean, dear, I am compelled to leave town at ten this morning and I won't be back before ten tomorrow morning.”
Jean almost swooned as the prophecy of that fortune-teller flashed on her mind.
"Oh, Guy! Why-er why tomorrow is our birthday. You're not—"
"I know tomorrow's our birthday, but it is absolutely imperative that I be in Cleveland by two o'clock this afternoon—urgent professional matters. We can have our dinner when I get back. I will be back at ten without fail."
"Well, if you just simply must go, I suppose that I will have to make the best of it but the circumstance is inconvenient."
Then an idea flashed through her mind. She could change her plans with the photographer.
"Are you absolutely certain that you can't make it back before ten tomorrow, Guy?" she asked, striving hard to keep from showing the unusual excitement that was, internally taking her by storm.
"I couldn't get back if I wanted to. I won't get through in time to leave here before seven thirty."
After breakfast he watched his chance and slipped down to the basement to Fanny, who was in the laundry—well, not exactly washing, but she was in close proximity with the tub. Guy woke her up from a little nap she was taking standing up over it.
"Fanny," he whispered, slipping a

"Yes, suh, yes, suh. Indeed I do, suh" exploded Fanny with five dollars' worth of "thu-usiasm" as she called that word. She was especially pleased at playing the role of a Miss Argus Eye and a broad smile spread over a comely fat brown face as she sensed the object of such secret plans on the eve of her mistress' birthday.

Your skin must be fed—must be nourished or damaged. It is not enough to remove only the pimples, blackheads, blotches, etc. These blemishes will only reappear unless you treat them. Your skin needs food—needs nourishment put in it that has been taken away by exporter, dirt, grime and germs.
Science's Latest Discovery
Is Terra-Vitae
This is a skin texture vitamin-a in SKIN FOOD. When applied to the face, it actually noises it. But first it destroys all blemishes, pimples, blackheads, tyes and scars. It also cleanses and baths. And it purifies as it cleans. The antiseptic properties of Terra-Vitae kill bacteria that cause skin irritation. Terra-Vitae is the name of your skin. Your skin blemishes must be removed by healing properties of the skin. Terra-Vitae is the only known preparation containing all these virtues.
ALSO a WOODEN SKIN
If you desire to lighten your skin, there is a special tool called Terra-Vitale for both purifying and bleaching purposes. In fact, so powerful is Terra-Vitale as a bleach that it can purify skin three to four shades, yet it is guaranteed absolutely harmless—it positively no poisonous ash. If Terra-Vitale only uses a great deal of great ash, a great deal. But Terra-Vitale serves a triple purpose, all for the cost of one. Its antiseptic, bleaching and beauty qualities allow you to marvel on preparation ever discovered.

LODGE AND FRATERNAL NOTES
By A. B. RICE
The past and present eminent commanders council had, as their guest for the annual union Easter service on Sunday, April 20, Sir Jose H. Sherwood of St. Paul, Minn., president of the International Committee of the United States and Canada, who was entertained at the Labor Lyceum on Monday night, April 21, by the council and on Tuesday night, April 22, by the banner of the grand commander of the state of Pennsylvania, after which Mr. Sherwood and his wife were the guests at a large banquet held at the Wyle avenue. They left for the East, accompanied by fraters and friends, who had come to Pittsburgh to meet them. Mr. Sherwood's stay with us was a very pleasant one. Sir Knights and nobles, get in action.
Keep in action for August 17 will soon be here. The training is a continuation of the speech given by Mr. Sherwood, president of the International Conference of K. T. of St. Paul, Minn.
Brethren, our ritual is indeed very beautiful, and it teaches high ideals, but what are we doing, you and me, to carry these ideals and teachings into expression in our lives and into the lives of others? These are things to think up others, to think up why to meet in His name they will make us pause and reflect, the while we search our hearts,
Has Templarhood no prophetic element in it today? Has it no dream, no forward looking program, no creative purpose for the times to be? Has its alter light faded into poor flicker of pained eyes, its loss of teacher and teacher of righteousness as the sovereign reality of the universe, the strong hope of humanity, and the secure foundation of personal and social life! Will it put a new fire into its philosophy, and tell the young men who pass into its temple gates that they must keep their phevous in the home, in the marts of trade, in the state, an dthus foretell the coming of a nobler social order, a juster state, a more humane civilization; numbers count but little; righteous manhood is everything. The most pressing need is the race of poor men in a nobler social order, a good man in of them; big men; men of broad minds; firm convictions, unimpeachable integrity; men beyond purchase. Men, not with bow shaped backbones, supone, survive, ever ready

and willing to accept the rear-most rank for themselves and their race, but men such as will make the proper use of their spine by standing erect, eyes front; fearlessly facing the foe, even the convinced victory will not be their portion; they may at least fall fronting them, thus give them the benefit to those who will be burdened; those followers will thereby be urged to greater efforts; they will surely wage a better battle because of the splendid example if they who fail but failed not, nor faltered. And some of them will scale the heights, planting the banner of victory where our hopes are set. Let not the call go unheeded. You and I have enjoy greater perptuity than we owe the debt to God and the race. True we may be gifted with but one talent, but like he of the parable, 'tis not our bury. Rather must we use it whenever possible, keeping it bright by constant service. Then it will increase beyond our wildest expectations and we will ourselves grow in grace in often—not to get us prey early, often—not to have our bright battles, but rather for light to see the right and strength for the right.
To the beloved, honored fraters who have so nobly fought for and handed down to us this sacred hori- gorge, whose shoulders are drooping: under the burden, whose heads are silvering through worry, whose hold fast that fear yet a little more, that the younger ones may rally around you, as they would about the remnant of their regiment in actual combat, that courageous, strong hearted few who yet contended stoutly with the enemy, striving to maintain erect and unsullied those colors which had never momentarily dusted, that never will. They will brunt of the work and shield you from worry and pain. As you gradually pass your duties to them do not feel your career is past, your days of usefulness and responsibilities ended. You have attained the years of discussion, conservatism. Those who succeed, hope, and progress, and may some times need the appreciation of their brakes of conservatism to keep them from running away with, and generally smashing up things. These men are coming; coming filled with zeal and the importance of the rite. They are knocking, and they are welcoming, and they will grant them the right to go out and face the fray—to fight, not with swords, as did the knights of old, but with acts, words, words of truth and light; acts of justice and mercy; putting to rout the enemies within as well as without. May they show they did well, and did well the caliber of men whom we have honed and prayed would arise God grant "they realize the import of the master's call, and deem themselves too mighty to be small."

FIRST PRESENTATION IN PITTSBURGH
Sarah Martin, accompanied by her own piano player and banjoist opened for a week's engagement at the Little Hill Playhouse, and just as expected, crowds were standing out in the street trying to get in. She has an original novelty act showing how records are made in recording laboratories. She is assisted by another feature act, Butterbeans and Susie who really make a hit at the beginning. Lee and Wright, a singing act, also draws big applause.
"The Runnin' Wild Co." got more than ever known for a colored show for the first month. It may not have the run of Shuffle Along but it is a money maker here and on the road.

Germans Making It Hard For Hays
Nationals-Threaten to Cancel Concert Engagements — Getting Too Much Money.
PRAGUE, May 1—On the ground that Roland Hayes might take too much gold out of the country, German nationals are threatening to cancel thirteen concert engagements in Czecho-Slovakia. Other protests called attention to the fact that Hayes belongs to the same colored race as the black troops occupying German territory on the Rhine. Hayes' representative here appealed to the American Legation and received a letter testifying to Mr. Hayes' American birth.
In spite of this, one paper states that "n Negro cannot grow out of his hide. While he may understand modern music, it would be impossible for him to interpret the cultured works of German poets, since he speaks out of the soul of his aboriginal people. We decline this section to have the works of Mozart, Bach, Handel and Schubert presented by this Negro."

NEW YORK. May 1—The presentation of "All God's Chillin Got Wings" a play by Eugene O'Neill which recently aroused much controversy because it concerns the love of a Negro for a white woman, has been postponed. The Provincetown Players, who had announced that the play would be given early in May, declared last week it was off for the present. Mr. O'Neill's play has not been dorped from the schedule of the Provincetown players, it was said, but has only been postponed for a white woman, who was to have played the role opposite Robeson. In the meantime, the Provincetown players will offer a revival of "The Emperor Jones," also by Eugene O'Neill in which the leading role will be played by, Robeson.

He is at present a graduate student at Northwestern University and came all the way from Evanston, Ill., to address the meeting.
One of the features of the meeting also was the presence of Mr. Louis E. Jeppe, an old patriot, who for twenty-five years has been a clearing figure in the affairs of Virgin Islands when those people were known as natives of the Danish West Indies.
In the course of his address Mr. Mitchell, among other things, said:

"Poverty is at the root of the Virgin Islands problem. The Virgin Islands are rich in soil and timber, but the resources have not been properly utilized.
In St. Thomas, the people depend upon the harbor activities for living. Women get 2 cents a basket for carrying baskets of coal weighing 60 to 90 lbs. on their heads to the ships. There are a few prosperous shops and merchants but a lack of business co-operation. They have no knowledge of the collective use of dollars.
"The question as to the legal status of the people of the Virgin Islands appear to be a vexed one. There is a strong and quite natural demand on the part of the people of the islands, that this question of citizenship be determined. They desire not to be inhabitants of the Virgin Islands entitled to the protec-

Among the recommendations which Mr. Mitchell said had agreed upon after their investigation are the following:
"Remove certain obstructions: the removal of Prince Rupert Rock at the entrance of the harbor of St. Thomas, opposite Coyells Battery. Seamen of every nation have from time to time suggested that the removal of this obstruction would enlarge the commercial activities of this new harbor.
"The art in the harbor of Christianstead if removed, would so open the harbor that vessels of medium and light draft could enter.
"In order to stalize wages, protect the native workers from harmful competition with alien laborers, and to generally assist in the relief of industrial depression it is recommended that the Department of Labor appoint a Commissioner of Cancellation for service on the Island who shall also enforce the Federal Immigration Laws.
"A new organic act should be passed so as to authorize the adoption of a new code of laws based upon our own ideals and calculated to insure an administration and enforcement of the laws in keeping with American practice. Especially, the courts should be so reorganized that the people, who are the owners of confidence, and every man however, humble be assured of his day in court."

The midnight show billed as the "Debutante Follies" at the Lafayette Theatre, last Wednesday evening was well attended. While not the financial success anticipated, there was no room for complaint. When the curtain went up on the first act, the entire orchestra and all the boxes seemed to have been filled, and the audience was a patient and indulgent one.
Mme. Lucile Randolph, and her coworkers deserve much-credit for putting the show over, and her short address was timely and to the point. In a few words she explained that the organization was a charitable one, and that the name "Debutante" which had been made fun of by some of the newspapers, was the name of the club, and had no reference whatever to the young ladies of which it was made up. There were twenty three numbers rendered, all of which were well received. Special mention must be given to Miss Mildred. Foster who sang "You're in Kentucky sure as you born". Teenie Carrington's "Mindin my Business", and the classic dancing of Miss Mabel Jones. Miss Jones is a dancer extraordinary, and all of whom we can all feel proud.

Robert J. Robertson Said To Have Collected Funds On Homes He Had No Authority To Sell.
NEWARK, N.J.; May 1-Robert J. Robertson, well known in the real estate and business circles-of this city was arrested here last week after having closed his office at 272. Bank street and attempted to elude capture. Robertson had elude possession of beautiful homes in and around Newark which he had no authority whatever to sell, and had then disappeared with huc funds.
I seems that Mrs. Louis Bishop 45 Lilie street and Isadore Ingano 223 New street had been two of Robertson victims, he having obtained from them $350 and $550 respectively. Robertson made no denial of this. It was on the complaint of Robertson that the case was begun for two months ago.
Robertson's methods were as follows. He would advertise beautiful homes for sale. Customers were shown houses anyone would care to own at the low prices he quoted. He would inspect the houses, he would take them to look at their prospective residences from the outside, but said he could not take them within because the present tenants were ill. He accepted hand money on the properties and instructed his victims to wear masks. He kept the months and no return for their money caused uneasiness for Mrs. Bishop and Inzano. Police were put on the trail but L. Bertson had flown. For the last two months his office, prominently located on Bank street, has been one night last week two detectives walking along Broad street recognized Robertson and identified him from a picture they had. He was placed under arrest. At the time he had in his possession checks for large amounts him from victims. Pawn tickets under the name of Moore are being investigated.

He was at the C. and will sing the remembered of the Atlantic Study Center, an organization of teachers here and in Pleasantville.
The Blue Kitten surely scored a point when it engaged Howards Musical Aces, formerly of the Winter Palace, and the fire season.
The building was built by the old school, and the way it was made from Gay and Baltic. Lionel Howard, trumpet, and director; William Miller, drums and trash; Peter Arm, stand, stand, Gaufield, Carter, banjo stand, tenor singer and slide, and Stanley, trombone, all together it surely is some band. Illinois and Arctic will surely miss this musical organization.
It has been rumored that Bobby Lee and his band will open soon at the Palace Cabaret, the scene of his activities last year, where he may then made Robin with one of the best bands on the island.
The Paradise Cabaret is the scene of the largest review on the island.

Mary Rao and Mae Olden and Thrill of Broadway, fame, equally share their own life of song and dance.
Jashee Hillard is a pittad barbarton, she who knows how to sing. His presence, would be welcome in any place where talent is valued, and band surely holds up its end for that multitude of jazz.
The Tekla Cabaret on North Carolina avenuent went to a heavy expense to get Ollie Burgone, Milton Cole and others to perform on band. Tekla Pekin sports one of the best bands on the avenue.
The New World, managed by William Ramsey, has a show long to be remembered. It has been running for over a year, the star of star entertainers and review Mamie, Corine, Tundy, Gene and a entertainment that visitors will not forget for a long time.
The Felmont, under the management of Herdon Danielle, opened on Thursday with one of the Sunday matinees will prevail as has been the policy in previous years. Herdon and the cabaret business and entertainers.
The Winter Palace, featuring another star punch of the day, and that compiles with any here. The entire show is a repetition of the show Charley Taylor's band scores heavily. Truckhard and Davis orders and pays for good shows and karaoke. Richard Coles and Eugene Weinberg surely are the supporting present mayor. Baden. Then the event to foster the Baden and Enoch Johnson ticket, is understood that Coles wants Mayer Baden re-elected. Mrs. L. Granger of New Jersey avenue is visiting in Washington, Richmond, and Atlanta to deshite stay to regain her health.

(Special Interview. for. The Pittsburgh Courier)
JERSEY CITY, N.J., May 1—Dr. George E. Cannon, one of the foremost citizens of this state, ran in last Tuesday's primaries, at-large for the Republican National Convention, to be held next month in Cleveland, O. Running as a Coidge delegate, he led the entire ticket at throughout the state of New Jersey. At the final tally he polled more votes than United States Senator Walter E. Edge, the present senator at Washington, ex-Governor Stoke, ex-United States Senator Frelinghuysen, the winning delegate. The following tabulation indicates the number of votes polled by each of the big seven:
Cannon 102,365
Pomeroy 101,479
Colby 101,364
Frelinghuysen 100,755
Edge 100,755
Lippincott 99,743
Stokes 99,578
of the list are women, Mrs. Edith H. Colby and Mrs. L. E. Linnicot.
This is a signal honor for Dr. Cannon. When interviewed, Dr. Cannon said that "his head would fit the same hat he had been wearing." Past custom would have Cannon head the New Jersey delegate the national role, but the current Cannon to Senator Edge because of his official position and because Cannon is willing that it should be so. Cannon said that "I believe that the big victory for President Coolidge at Tuesday's, primarily foreshadows a Coolidge landslide next November." He is strong hold that the President has on the voters of the country."
He is further quoted as saying, "Surely New Jersey is no place for the Ku Klux Klan. It has no sympathy for the narrowbacks who would raise the cry of race prejudice and religious prejudice. Of course, I am personally much pleased, but I consider this not a per-

sonal matter. It is much bigger than that. I was merely the representative of the colored Republicans of New Jersey, and the vote of confidence given me is a sign that the work of the loyal colored Republicans is appreciated by the rank and file of the party.
Plans are being perfected for a testimonial in honor of Dr. Cannon before he leaves for the convention. This will be a stupendous affair, and already the Republican organizations of record are working on the New Jersey State Federation of Clubs, also chairman of the State Political Conference, ta member of the Colored Republican Association of Hudson County, Inc, and numerous other organizations and civic bodies. He appeared before the National Committee on the time he laid before them the claims of the race and fought the lily white policies of the Southern Republicans. At the end of the committee meeting New Jersey was given the additional place for a delegate-at-large. Although many well-known and leading Republicans of the opposition on the state ticket, it went unanimously to Dr. Cannon, and at the 'final' received more votes than any other person on the entire ticket.

Alleged Insult to Girl Causes Hostility—More Than Score of Men Take Part.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 1 — Bricks flew with carefree abandon when about 20 colored and an equal number of whites began a battle at Thirteenth and Mifflin street and Patrolman Pacchio, of the Thirteenth district, arrested two colored men received the final brick the back of the head. He was taken to Saight Agnes' hospital, where it required six stitches to close the wound.
The white men allied that some of the colored men made insulting remarks to several white girls and then the battle started. Pacchio, who was near the scene, sailed into the melee and arrested William and Thirteenth and Ellsworth streets. While he was waiting for the wagon, William Donohue, white of Lamert street, threw a bribe to the colored men Policeman Pacchio had just arrested. His aim was poor and the officer was both guilty, injured. Realizing that both gains were likely to start something, Pacchio turned in a call, which resulted in the arrival of twenty-eight policemen. Five revolvers, four blackjacks and three razors were found on the battlefield.

White Man Guilty Of Police Attack
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 1—Before Judge Smith, in the Quarter Sessions Court, a jury convicted Frank Fratta, white, of Paschall avenue near seventh-third street, for having unlawful possession of liquor and assault and battery with intent to kill vice squad police Clorey and Saunders, whom the defendant fired several shots when the policemen raided his home on November 24.
This was the second trial c. Fratta. At a previous trial March 26, the jury failed to agree. Fratta said the police did not show any search warrant and that he believed they were members of the "Black Hand" gang which had threatened him. The policemen denied this, however, and produced search warrants which they said were shown to the defendant.
Judge Smith deferred sentence pending disposition of a motion for a new trial.

PENN RELAYS MARK ANNUAL ATHLETIC AND SOCIAL EVENT
The age of flapperism, the decade of jazz music, the day when endurance tests are thrust upon us; the hour when woman claims her own, there is war, unrest and extravagance. Ah! what a cruel and degraded world this is—what are we coming to? Standards, ideals, are cast to the winds. Thus saythe pessimist with lowered head and measured tread. When an older voice in the distance rings on with "Aren't you glad you are living?" Look upon this little bundle of joy, with bobbed hair and smart frock and cheerful smile. Isn't it wonderful to dance to the strains of a smoother jazz melody? There is beauty, aesthetic and soulful, in the dance of today.
And endurance tests are just the thing to keep the younger and the older generation young and full of
The Penn Relays really mark a wonderful athletic and social event in the passing of the days in the Quaker City.

It seems that the girls who attended the races tried to outdo each other in the display of color. there was gold, silver, green, blue, red and an endless stream of vidi color, which dazzled the eye and pleased the fance.
Charlie West, the winner athlete, did the usual in excelling in all of his events. He won the Pentathlon for the second successive year. We are sure proud of our Charlie. He is exceptional in every way. Modest, unassuming, and yet powerful enough to receive honor and respect all over the world.
It is indeed fine, that we are coming to realize the real value of athletics.

SAVANTS JEER CONGRESS FOR RACIAL PREJUDICE
Educators Prove That Theory of Hall That Negro Is Mentally Inferior, Is Wrong—Tell Of Superstitions Among Other Races.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 1.—The savants who are daily presenting some phases of human thought before the American Philosophical Society at its general meeting, engaged in a symposium on the question, "Are all races potentially equal?" The consensus of opinion concluded that they are, and that the differences between red, white, black and yellow men is only a climatic one.
The anthropologists, ethnologists and other gists laughed gently, tolerantly and firmly at Congress for its belief that races can be inferior or superior. They concerned themselves with an analysis of human prejudices and a synthesis of human accomplishments.
The symposium began with an introduction by Dr. G. B. Gordon, director of the University of Pena, Museum. He said that the question "Are all races potentially equal? implied they are not actually equal. The minority for this is I do not know." he continued. "It would seem to be that of Congress, which none of us considers sufficient." H. U. Hall, curator of general ethnology in the University Museum, recited a long list of superstitions prevalent among Afrikan tribes and concluded that the Negro race is its history, seems to show that its mental disposition stationary, and that the Negro is inferior.
phenomena of heredity; and that there is no such thing as race heredity, it only extending in the family lines. He declared the man's unfavorable opinion of the Negro was based on a trifling glance at his own superficial advantages.

Alexander Goldenweiser, professor of anthropology in the New school of Social Research, New York, had no difficulty in revealing the inconsistency of Dr. Hall. "For every Negro superstition there is one among us. A programman will go to conceal it, and the child may be shown that all men react to the same set of circumstances in the same way. "The size and weight of the human brain is about the same in all races. Carrying on a civilization requires all humanity, not an exceptional part of it. We all know that scientific conclusions are brought forth to eluder pronounced nouns and adjectives, and the scripture is the feeling that one race is better than another is prejudice, a mere mental attitude." Franz Boas, professor of anthropology in Columbia University, in a most scholarly paper, exhausted all the subject's possibilities. He showed that conceit and prejudice lie behind race discrimination. He proved that the attainment of any group of men is explained by the

Mme. F. Walker West
Local Woman Inventor Of Device Which Combs And Straightens Hair
Mme. F. Walker West of 213 Paul Avenue avenue, East End, has practically revolutionised the hair-straightening industry through the invention of a wonderful and time-saving device, known as the COMBRUSH STRATE. This device can be operated without any experience whatever, and combs and straightens the hair with one stroke. Besides saving time and labor, the metal used in this brush makes it possible to heat it with one-half of the ordinary heat necessary.
Mme. West has also manufactured many other wonderful preparations for the hair, and it would pay the many hairdressers of the country to write for full particulary reel and lose the many merits of the same. A full explanation of this device appears on page five of this issue.

you can easily and safely lose all that fat,
says a French specialist. "For years I nut-
tured myself, but I have never trouble due to fifty pounds of excess fat. I was weak short of breath and 'all in.' I could not eat anything, and was thoroughly disgusted with life until I found out about SANGRINA, a marvelous recoverer and women are going through these same troubles today. And, for their benefit, I am glad to explain that I am not how the woman can easily and gradually lose a few pounds each week without any danger. Go to www.sangrina.com and get a package of SANGRINA—remember the name, and do not accept anything else from the brand, has given me the benefit of the public."
SANGRINA, the formula of a French physician, has been used in Europe in private practice. It is paid for it. Simply take two tablets before each meal, and watch your fat. SANGRINA you should feel greater pop and energy. No more tired feeling. SANGRINA is guaranteed absolutely harm-free, and positive to relieve you, or your money is refunded. Remember, that to all I did it to rid of 50 pounds of obesity, my wife of that I take to gained one pound since it stopped using SANGRINA. I look and feel years younger, and I can sincerely recommend it to any fat man or woman."—Advertisement.

Beautiful Girl Reveals Secret
Once my hair was anything but long and silky soft as it is, now, and my completion was sallow, and my completion was unlightly dimless on my face.
One day I heard of Exelento Quinine Pomade for the hair and purchased a jar. Almost immediately it stopped all dandruff, made my hair grow long and gave it a delightful sheen. Because of the perfectly wonderful results I obtained from Exelento Quinine Pomade, I purchased a jar. It was beautiful. It changed my sallow complexion to a clear, lovely skin, glowing with health. For pimples and other skin blemishes, it has no equal. It is beautiful as people say it is all due to Exelento preparations. Exelento Quinine Pomade and Exelento Skin Beautifier may be obtained for only 25% at most drug stores, or will be postpaid upon receipt of price by the EXELENTO MEDICINE CO., Atlanta, Ga.
