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.

(Special to the Pittsburgh Courier)
‘By HARRY B: WEBRER
NEWARK, -N.-d,,: May" 1-The
Good Samaritan Home For’ Colored
Orphan children” Here,“ lotated in
Riverside avenye. was.-seb on . fire
last. week, following an attempt to
expéll: 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.un-
sanitary and immoral conditions pre-
vailed to such an extent, that. the
lives of the inmates wero imperiled.
Evidence presented’ at the hearing,
howeyes@@howed ‘that the white of-
fice rt was greatly exaggera-
hat there was more to the
ingjs ‘than’ seemed at first. .
Morris recelved warnings she
that the building would be
burned if: she would not voluntarily
deaye the city,
-She has frequently. been before
the public dufing the last few years
in efforts to obtain funds for the
orphanage and also because of clash-
es with the health -department’ and
children." She has ‘continued ‘to live
at tho home with a companion Fran-
ces Halsey. 1
Miss Halsey told the police that
she received three threatening tel-
ephones calls’ during the afternoon
in Mrs, Morris absence. Mrs. Mor-
ris repeived a letter signed “K. K. K.
X. XX." last week ordering her to
leave the city or accept the conse-
quences which were forcible expul-
sion. ‘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 Miss Halsey to sleep at the
home'of Mrs. Nannie Harper at 246
Riverside avenue. The fire damaged
the rear part-of the hom® 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 gen-
esis in keen opposition’ to her home
by the-organized colored agencies in
this ‘city. The reason for this seem-
ed to be the fact that Mrs. Morris
did not prefer to operate her insti-
tution 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, appeated to the “highest
court. of the state, the Supreme
Court. ‘They based their appeal on
two points of law, namelys(1) That
it was improper to admit evidence
of 0 prior independent offense al-
iezed to have been committed by the
Gezendant to rebut testimony of the
defendant's good reputation; (2) It
was improper to permit the Com-’
menwealth in their cross-examina-
Gon of the defendant's eharacter
witnesses to examine him on traits
of character; which in human nature
are not related to the act for which
the defendant is charged. :
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 che 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
rdid the report of the trial. At the
time the guilty verdict was brought
in she announced that she would not
allow sentiment to stand in the way
of what che felt was a just verdict.
‘Miss Jones was refused a new trial
and condemned to die.
. At the time sentence was passed
by Jadge MeDevitt his court assum-
ed the appearance of a society fane-
tion. Numerous persons in the so-
cial 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 Sirs, Mary Roberts
Rinehart, the famous writer, and
General Smedley Butler, the ‘diree-
tor of the Department of Public
Safety. Mrs. Rinehart interviewed
Miss Jones and will soon write
about it. *

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.

husband's activities to the attention of the Court of Domestic Relations, his attorneys informed the court that he had already filed a bill for divorce against his wife.
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.

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.

Forty thousand people on Saturday saw hundreds of athletes from countries in varied relays. Other hundreds competed over the hurdles. In the sprints, the pole vault, the high jump, the bounce, the high jump, the bounce.
Lincoln University, running against College of the City of New York, Temple, Ursinus, Miami, University of Havana and Maryland Normal School, led all the though closed schools, led by C. G. Cason, F. M. Gordon, R. G. S. Jason, R. K. Jones, and W. H. Strickland were the Lion runners and their time was 3:38 4-5. Martin, a grace lad, showed well for Temple in this event. 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

"I am in my fifth year, but since taking 'Neutrone Prescription '95," she said, as much work as I could twenty-five years ago," declared Mr. C. J. Hankarian of 40 Elm St. Amesbury.
"For the last six years I have suffered united pain, day and night; at times I was so swollen so I could hardly walk. I saw by the papers what fine work Neutrone Prescription '96 was going to become. It did me good right from the start. All the aches and pains left me; the swelling in my legs went out and I feel like a young man again.
"Neutrone Prescription '95 is what but me on my feet again, and I'm about to the chance to tell everybody about it.

won the High School Relay championship from a field which enriched Lakewood, O. last year winner, Carnegie, Waite High, Lowell High, Newton High, Medford High and Gormantown High. Brown, third, gained over twenty yards on his lap and made the race safe.
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.
Frieda, of Chicago, broke the Carnival record in the javelin throw with 185.7½. West finished third. He was third in the 202 meters and fifth in the discus. Yale is not the Georgetown, Legett, of the Navy, and Marsh Johnson, of Pitt, were the others to place. Newton, of Florida, who was one of West's stoutest contenders last year could not make the grade. He was not in the national championships Huntington school, of Boston, made a new American record—8:17 1.5. Penn equaled the Carnival record of 1:29 4.5 in the half-mile college relay. 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.

Charles West of Washington and Jefferson won the Pentathlon at the annual Penn Relay games, held at Franklin Field, Philadelphia, Pa., for the second consecutive time. He finished the five event competition with the low winning score of 13. He finished first in the running broad jump, and the 1,500-meter run; third in both the javelin and 200-meter, and fifth in the discus throw.
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.

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.
Word has reached us that Frankie Greb has signed up for fiveweight titlebattles, will meet Pancho Vilin, world champion, and will compete in an antagonism can be antisatisfactorly concluded the 1st will be for 15 rounds.
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. Dr. Dash was confirmed last Sunday in West 52nd street.

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. Mackey also collected three hits, all doubles, big seven shots, big seven shots, one being his lusty clout over centerfield, fence Fiall, Mackey and Claude Johnson sparkled with feeding feats.

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.

Go to High School, Go to College

ALPHA PHI ALPHA has all but covered the earth with "Go to High School, Go to College," beginning April, the message of education for the Negro. The week and closing with May 4, was a week of "broadcasting" education.
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.

It requires more than a grade school training to give to the boy or girl the stimulation needed to launch out into the world's great conflict. Then, too, it will require at least ten generations of educated mothers and fathers before we can hope to have established a background for refinement and culture. We are hopefully without refinement in many instances where education per se has been sufficient. We can never rise among peoples until refinement, through education, becomes a natural and easy trait as common to us as our racial instincts.

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
THE people of Pennsylvania relegated their Governor to the trear on April 22. His passing was due to his "too much talking" and too much aping of Roosevelt. There is no successor to Roosevelt. Not even the sons of the Terrible Teddy offer us any hope of a duplicate of the original. Mr. 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 the laws against liquor enforced TO SUIT PINCHOT. 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.
THE result of the recent primary election in the State of Illinois presents a few lessons for the political observer. Six Negroes were nominated for state positions, but the one running for the United States Congress from the first district was defeated. The surprising fact in the matter is that support of the colored man, Chicago's Nathan Taylor, 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 when they play up the race end in other matters. The Enterprise gave Mr. Taylor more support than the Defender. The race men in Congress and our allies must support these candidates.
When it comes to portraying crime and scandal of the race both The Whip 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 failed the race miserably. The backing of Mr. Taylor for Congress and the continued support of his candidacy by The Defender and The Whip, as well as The Enterprise was a service that the race had a perfect record. 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 and the first district of Chicago offered the opportunity. But lo, 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 crime and scandal to the exclusion of other news, are greater enemies of the race than the most rabid Southern white paper. The white paper in headlining Negro crime is carrying out its principal race prejudice, while the Negro paper that does it, is a fiercely hypocritical.
The Chicago Defender has the largest circulation of any colored paper in this country. It is sold on more white newsstands 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 Defender is not true to the race which it is supposed to portray the better side of man, against all adverse influences. On the contrary, it creates an awful influence 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 the primary, demonstrates that while the supposed Negro leaders 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 shalt" 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 Negroes of 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'S MAIL
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

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.

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.

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.

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.

ATERNAL NOTES
B. RICE
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."

You are going to like this Bulgarian Tea. Everyone who tries it tells how much good it does right from the start. It just puts new life in you when you feel run down, tired or weak. You know you can't keep up with energy when your blood is weak and you're afraid of body poisons to have good health. You can love the man who is strong or the woman who is beautiful because their physical charms show that they are healthy and have pure blood.
If you are tired, weak, nervous with no appetite or lack the energy and vigor to perform your work--don't wait another day—get some Pep in you and feel 10 to 30 years younger.

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.

Harrison of the Board of Education, himself a native of Santa Cruz and the Rev. R. G. Harrow, who is a native of Barbados, British West Indies, was deported from the Islands over a year ago. 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-

tion of the United States, but to be in every respect full fledged citizens, with all rights, privileges and benefits thereof.
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.
Another bumper house marked the staging of the Bretton Hall Boys "A night in Joyland" at the New Star Casino, Friday evening, last April. 25th. The decorations were the most gorgeous we have ever seen in the 107th street pleasure palace, and the music was of the type classique. Mr. John Smith's orchestra augmented by the Vincent Lopez (white) orchestra, which holds forth nightly at the Hotel Pennsylvanian, was responsible for this. Dancing was indulged in until the wee morning hours, and a satisfied and orderly assemblage retired to its home after an evening well spent.
The Blue Bird's Social and Literary club, entertained a large and appreciative audience, at the Imperial Auditorium, 164 West 129th street on Friday evening last when they gave their annual Spring dance music was furnished by Albert Napoleon's Orchestra.

Remember it is all for sweet Charity.
On the same evening at the Imperial Auditorium, Harry and Laura Prampin will give their fourth annual concert and dance. The school is extending an invitation to all lovers of music. Among the artists who will appear are Mr Leon A. Rilus, trombone soloist, and William D. Copeland, clarinet soloist.
Among the visitors to the New York Office of the Pittsburgh Courier during the past week were Mrs. Beleter Barksdale, Mrs. Sydney Crawford, Mrs. Cleo Crawford, and Mr. Douglas Hudson.
Mrs. Cecil Carter, wife of Mr. Cecil (daddy) Carter of 588 Lenox avenue, New York City, left last week for a visit to her family and friends in Barbados, B. W. I., we wish Mrs. Carter "un bon voyage."
Again we have witnessed the Pretty Pert Pierrettes, in an informal Dansante, given at Laurel Gardens, Friday evening 'April'. 25th. Enchanting music was furnished by the John C. Smith modern orchestra. There were a number of the out of town celebrities present, Brooklyn, and Jersey City were well represented. The alacrity of the crowd showed that the Pretty Pierrettes had nothing to regret. Among those present were: Mr. Samuel C. Ginnell, Miss Ruth Curtis, Marjorie Smith, Dr. Leonard Taylor, Harry Ross, Archie Parson, Dr. Buster Woods, Kenneth Duncan, Archie Morgan, William Tyler, Jervey Wilson, Ralph Lowe, among the members of the club present were Miss Helen Thompson, Miss Charllette Murphy, Laura Smith, and a number of others.

‘the same hat he had been wearing.”

believe that the big victory: for Pres-
ident Coolidge at Tuesday's pri-
