Widow Seeks Payment In Mate's Death
Argument Over 30 Cents Leads to Court Action Against Odd Fellows.
BOSTON, Mass., May 15—Controversy over 30 cents will bring the New England Lodge of the Grand United Order of Odd Fellows and Mrs. Mathilda Foreman, Roxbury, with her five children, into Suffolk Superior Court to battle for a sick benefit and funeral expense fund of $100.
Attorney Edward Carr, who is giving his legal services to the widow, last week filed action, in which he stated that Philip Foreman was a charter member of the fractual organization and for 12 years, until his fatal illness, he paid all his dues and assessments with the exception of 30 cents, which it is alleged came during his illness.
The permanent secretary of the lodge, Lawrenegg A. Roach, has been ordered by the court to answer a set of interrogatories filed by Attorney Roach. Then he alleges that the grand prize of the organization should have paid Mrs. Foreman $100 within 24 hours after her husband's death, according to the rules and constitution of the order.
The widow, in a statement to press, made in her bare hands the fact, said that Reach did not want to play her the sick benefits and husband's death cared at her not accept his because she did indies auxiliary to join the F. many of the G. U. O. O.

Known to Race
St. Louis. Philanthropists Have Already. Given $15,000 to Howard and Y. M. C. A.
ST. LOUIS, Mo., May 15. The largest gift ever made by Negroes to any social or philanthropic work was the $25,000, just made by Mr. and Mrs. A. E. Malone in the $3,000,000 Building Campaign of the Y. M. C. A. of St. Louis. When this gift was announced to the Central Campaign Committee, the Metropolitan Y. M. C. Director stated that no single gift in the campaign so far would be productive of results in securing large gifts from the white people as Mr. and Mrs. Malone. A special committee composed of the following men visited Poro College and expressed to Mrs. Malone (Mr. Mason was absent from the city) the appreciation of the entire Campaign organization: Byroh W. Moser, chairman of the Board of Directors M. Y. M. C. A. of the city; L. C. Howorth, general secretary; Frank L. Williams, chairman of the Committee on Management of the Pine Street Dept, and principal of Summer High School; Dr. J. E. Mooreland; who was largely instrumental in securing the gift; H. C. Craft, Executive Secretary of H. C. Street Dept; R. B. DeFerris, Campaign Director; and C. H. Tobias, Senior Secretary. Colored Men's Dept. of the Y. M. C. A. In response to the words of appreciation as expressed by the several members of the committee, Mrs. Malone stated that she did not regard their money as belonging to herself and husband but as belonging to God, and that instead of seeing it draw interest in the bank they much preferred to have it draw interest in human character. She stated that every time she looked out of her window and saw scores of colored boys congregated on the corners with few safeguards about them, she felt that there was in that a challenge to her and her husband.
At a mass meeting of citizens of the Pine Street Dept. gymnasium the next day, Gov. Sweet, of Colorado, was present and heard a brief statement from Mrs. Malone as to why she made her gift. The governor was so much impressed that he requested to be taken to Poro College after the close of the meeting. He invited Mrs. Malone and party of friends to the College where he was shown through and expressed very great surprise and delight at the magnitude and spirit of this great institution?

Mr. and Mrs. Aaron E. Malone of £25,000 to the St. Louis Y. M. C. A.

THE MAYOR OF BROOKLYN IS SHOWN WITH HER HUSBAND, THE REAL MAYOR.
Mr. and Mrs. Aaron E. Malone of St. Louis, Mo., who recently donated $25,000 to the St. Louis T. M. C. A. drive for $3,000,000.00.
The Malones, with other donations of $5,000 and $10,000, take their place with the big philanthropists of the city.
Mr. and Mrs. Malone have been generous contributors to many organizations and welfare movements throughout the country. In 1915 they made what was then the largest contribution ever made by colored people to any organization, namely $5,000 to the Building Fund of the Pine Street, Y. M. C. A. Since then they have made such notably contributions as $10,000 to the endowment fund of the Medical Department of Howard University. From time to time substantial contributions have been made to Tuskegee, Wilberforce University and Y. M. C. A's and churches in different parts of the country. They have also been strong supporters of the work of Bishop W. Sampson Brooks in West Africa and Max Yeargan in South Africa. The Colored Orphans' Home of St. Louis was built by popular subscriptions secured very largely under the leadership of Mr. and Mrs. Malone.
This gift of $25,000 shows that the Negro is developing rapidly along business lines, and that he is willing to bear his share of responsibility for the social and religious uplift of his own people. When it is remembered that a building for Colored men and boys will result from the present campaign and that this will be the second Y. M. C. A. building in St. Louis for Colored men and boys, it is impossible to measure the far-reaching effect of the example of St. Louis upon other cities throughout the country. It is certain that this will prove such a stimulant to "Y" work as was the famous Rosenwald gift of thirteen years ago.
Huge Fortune Is Denied Man Now In Prison
Huge Fortune Is Denied Man Now In Prison
ST. LOUIS, Mo., May 15—August Lowry, whose father was a Cherokee Indian, and whose mother was of our race, says he is rich in Oklahoma oil lands. He did not realize his wealth until last July, when he fled from Leavenworth penitentiary, where he had served 21 years of a life term for a murder which he says he did not commit.
For almost a year he has tried to turn some of his wealth into cash, without success, and now, peniless as ever, he is on his way back to the federal penitentiary because he wore a heavy winter overcoat on a warm night in St. Louis.
Detectives Klieg and Siekhaus were suspicious when they saw the dark-slimmed man at 12th street and Franklin avenue, Saturday night. Thinking the overcoat was stolen, they questioned him. He said he was "Henry Smith" and were the coat because he didn't know what else to do with it.
Tells of Wealth
Then at headquarters he admitted he was August Lowry, 53 years old, wanted by the Leavenworth authorities. He told an unusual story and produced deeds for oil lands in Rogers and Nowata counties, Oklahoma, to substantiate it.
Back in November, 189, he was farming 74 acres with his wife and niece when a neighboring farmer was murdered. He was tried and convicted because he had loned his revolver to the farmer's nephew, he declared, and was sent to a federal prison for life. He maintained his innocence and after 16 years was paroled to an Oklahoma farmer. This was worse than prison, he said, and after four years of working from dawn until midnight, he violated his parole and was returned to Leavenworth.
Escaped Last July
Last July he and a white trusty were out picking berries when he decided to run away. The white man gave him 15 cents, and he made his way back to his farm.
Without revealing his identity, Lowry said, he tried to negotiate a lease, but fearful of capture he came to St. Louis last Friday to make further attempts at raising money. He was living in a furnished room on High street, when arrested. The farm land, he declared, has a lease value of $1,000 an acre.
The prison guard who took Lowry back to Leavenworth told detectives that authorities there are inclined to believe his story and are favorable to his release, but that efforts to obtain a second parole through the attorney general had been unsuccessful.

South Carolina Whites Held For Flogging Mother
ORANGEBURG. S. C., May 15—Six white men of Orangeburg County, S. C., have been held by a local magistrate, according to the Columbia, S. C., state, for flogging Mrs. Alice Thomas, a colored woman on the night of April 5. The story of the flogging, as told by Mrs. Thomas is as follows: Her husband, Primus Thomas, had gone away on business. She was awakened by someone asking for her husband and upon being told of his absence, the gang of white men broke down her door and dragged her from her bed.
"I had on nothing but a nightgown and Mr. Binnicker said to me. 'You have got to go with us; we are going to wiph holl out of you tonight.' They put me in Mr. Binnicker's automobile and they drove off down the road for about a mile and near Mr. Sutcliffe's house, they stopped and I was whipped with a buggy trace. They beat me until I could hardly walk. They were cursing all the time they were whipping me and never stopped until an automobile drove up and I was released and told, 'Go out through the woods,' and as I ran I heard some one say, 'Now I guess you will keep your damn mouth shut.' Mr. Binnicker was the one that said this to me as I ran off. I saw and recognized Mr. Binnicker, Mr. Willie Ford, Mr. Lonnie Garrick, Mr. Whetstone, Mr. George Hutto, Mr. Cecil Hutto and Mr. Jim Fogle, but I do not remember of seeing Mr. Bannie Davis.
"Mr. George Binnicker and Willie Ford are the men who pulled me out of bed and choked me, and the others were with them and they were all drinking and cursing. I was bloody from the whipping licks, my nightgown was covered with blood. I have been living in this settlement for three years and am the mother of four children and have never had any trouble with anyone at all, as I have always worked in the field and attended to my own business and I do not know yet what I was whipped about." The story of Mrs. Thomas was corroborated by her son, Marion, and by a statement signed by three local white boys, who witnessed the whipping.

You get something more than just a ride from one place to another when you take a GREEN CAB. If a ride is all you want, you can get that in a street car or in any taxicab.
Real Cab service—the GREEN CAB kind—means more than a mere ride. It means courteous, dependable drivers; clean, sanitary cabs, liability insurance for passengers and organized responsibility. All of these features are a part of GREEN CAB service.
If GREEN CAB were not determined to give you more than a ride for your fare, we could save ourselves a great deal of money and trouble. It costs us hard cash to get only the best of drivers to keep our cabs as clean as a bride's kitchen and to insure you against accidents while you are in our cabs.
When you pay your fare after a ride in a GREEN CAB, you never have any regrets. You can rest assured that you have paid your money for cab service that is surpassed nowhere, and you will know it without our telling you about it.
GREEN CAB rates are the lowest in Pittsburgh. The large volume of business we do makes it possible for us to put our service within the reach of everyone.
GREEN CAR SERVICE is a necessity; not a luxury.

Endeavor To Stop Calling Pullman Porters 'George'
WASHINGTON, D. C., May 15.—It is said that one of the most popular organizations in Washington of a "non-partisan and non-political" nature is the Society for the Prevention of Calling Pullman Porters "George." It is claimed that the society had its inception in Chicago, but now has 100 members in Washington, among them being Georges in the Senate, Senators Pepper, Moses, Norris and McCumber, as well as Senator Walter F. George.
The patron of the society, whose name, appears on the back of the membership card is George Washington, honorary members of Georges Clemenceau and George M. Cohan. The aim of the society, it is said, is to get 100,000 members, whose first or last name is George. Each must pledge himself to discourage the practice of giving the name of George to the car porters.
'Lover,' Not Negro, Killed Woman, Says Eye Witness; Shatters Case For State
ST. PAUL, Minn., May 15.—Sensational developments in the murder case of Mrs. G. Mogol, who was brutally assassinated Friday by an alleged Negro, were brought to light Wednesday when C. L. Creighton, 682 Iglehart avenue, gave out testimony that had not been used in the daily press. Mrs. Creighton informed S. Quay Herndon, managing editor of the Bulletin-Appeal, George W. Hamilton, attorney, and Detective Vale of the Central Station that she had conveyed information to Coroner Ingerso. that she and a gentleman were practically eye witnesses to the killing of Mrs. Mogol. This informa-
tion was to have been given Chief of Police Gebhart, but for "reasons unknown," it was not conveyed. Allegations that the assailant was a Negro and that he dragged his victim into the alley were denied by Mrs. Creighton. The woman was joined by a man and they, together with the young son, walked into the alley and opened the paper, Mrs. Creighton called Coronel Ingerson by telephone and informed him of the previous night happening. Coroner Ingerson told her that he would take the matter up with Chief of Police Gebhart, who would send Herman Vall, chief of detectives, out to investigate her story.
Investigation Made.
Investigation Made.
Decrepencies in the testimony of Leo Mogol, 9-year-old son of the murdered woman, prompted investigation gatherers on the case, as it appeared that the dead woman and her assailant knew each other. That robbery could not have been the motive since the victim offered her purse, which was refused, also a fur coat she was wearing, which was also refused. The statement by the daily papers that an assault was committed was found to be untrue. There was then the fact that deliberate murder was the intent. On securing sufficient evidence that there were things not uncovered by the police pertaining to the case, more strenuous investigations began which led to the information that parties had seen the murdered woman a few minutes before the killing. Further investigation brought to light the parties who alleged they saw the woman, her son, and the unknown man. Mrs. Creighton expressed her willingness to the Bulletin-Appal representative what had occurred. Mr. Herndon and Attorney Hamilton, together with Detective Vall, immediately interviewed Mrs. Creighton.

BALTIMORE, Md., May 15 — (Afro-Courier Service)—Five women claim to be wed to Jno. W. Harris, 913 N. Parrish street, age 58, who was killed by the caving in of a bank while excavating for a pipeline on February 4th, 1924.
Rachel E. Harris, 913 N. Parrish street, an alleged widow, says she was married to the deceased on July 17th, 1910. She made her claim on March 3, 1924. One child was born of this alleged union on November 4th, 1915, while the couple were separated. This child was supported from Harris from May, 1920.
On March 6th, 1924, Anna Harris, 1137 Race street, made claim before the commission. She says she married Harris on December 24th, 1919.
Rev. John Smith says that he married Harris to a woman named "Estella" in 1905. Her sister, Jessie Offer, says that Estella died in 1909. Rev. Harris asserted that she was alive last Thursday. The New Amsterdam "Casualty Company carried the insurance of $5,000. After finding out that they were other claimants to the first the insurance company requested a contribution. Their plea was granted and the rehearing will be held on May the 19th, before the State accident commission.
The report of the two other claimants is but hearsay to date. They have filed no claims. The legal wife will get the $5,000.

Grace Church Bazaar
A Grand Success
The Grace Memorial Presbyterian Church bazaar and May fair opened formally on Wednesday evening, May 7, with a most brilliant musical program. The Sabbath school room was turned into a veritable flower garden making the affair take on the aspect of an oriental pagoda. The choir, the organist, and Mr. Ernest J. Wright, prominent among local musicians and concert players, donated their services. Both were most cordially received. No one sitting under the sound of the organ, listening to the music flooding with soft beauty, out the chancel of Grace Church could do other than exclaim this man an most Koonts is one of Pittsburgh's most famous musicians and Grace Church was fortunate in having him appear at this time.
Second Wedding Anniversary
An anniversary reception was given May 5 by Mrs. Anna Dickerson and Mrs. Sara Munson of Ohio at the former's home, East End, in honor of Mr. and Mrs. Albert James Paige. The color scheme was pink and white, while the centerpiece was white and pink. Mrs. Munson presented with a string of imported pearls, a gift from her husband, and a number of other very useful presents. The guests included relatives and friends from Cambridge and Cleveland, Ohio.
Another fine feature of the opening night was that sweet voice of Mr. Wright's, which seemed to permeate the very atmosphere long after he had ceased to sing. While all of his numbers were very splendid, he sang "Thanks Be to Go" and "Doe River." Someone said during the past week (which was music week) "The real American spirit can only be expressed by Americans, or by those from other shores who have learned that in music the Americans demand something compelling—something, which typifies the throbbing emotional resources of this restless age." Mr. Wright certain had this in mind when he selected a selection for his musicals. Messrs. Koontz and Wright were most generous in the rendition of their numbers and the audience was equally as receptive.

Whiten Skin With Lemon
Mudame Edna Jones was the pleasing soprano and as usual was accorded that warm ovation which all artists receive.

Mrs. Emma Arter Bailey was the versatile reader of the evening. Mrs. Bailey is a reader of ability, and bids fair to be one of Pittsburgh's best in naturally graceful and unhurried encouragement. The rainy weather greatly handicapped the attendance during the remainder of the week.

D. Lowndes.
wonderful skin whitener, softener and beautifier.
Massage this sweetly fragrant lemon bleach into the face, neck, arms and hands. It can not irritate. Famous stage beauties use it to bring out the brightness of their white complexion; also as a freckle, sunburn and tan bleach. You must mix this remarkable lotion yourself. It can not be bought ready to use because it acts best immediately after it is prepared.

The Jr. League of Warren M. E. church furnished an excellent Mother's day program Sunday after noon. Mrs. M. E. Davis is superintendent and Miss M. A. Ander son, president.
Damon and Pythias Will
Feature Local Favorites
“Damon and Pythias,” the drama to be presented by the Imperial Art Players at the Nixon May 30, is one of strong action. The plot is laid in Sicily, where Dionysius, a soldier general, conspires with friends and hireslings to overthrow the present government, and promises a king who succeeds in doing despite the frantic opposition of Damon, a senator and philosopher, who is therefore placed in prison and condemned to death by Dionysius. Pythias, his friend, learns of Damon's proposed execution at the very hour of his wedding celebration and leaving a disconcerting offer to Damon, that Damon goes and see his wife and child before he dies. If at the end of six hours Damon has not returned. Pythias must take his place.
[Image of a woman with a long, flowing hairstyle and a necklace. She is facing slightly to the right, with her head turned slightly to the left.]
Miss Mary Beckett
Dionysius, who is an infiel in regards to such ties of human nature, attempts to prove the friends false. Disguised and by the aid of Calanthe, the bride of Pythias, he urges his to fly from Syracuse and not await the return of Damon, whom he is assured has been intercepted. Damon's slave kills his brother, and Damon's wife's return to the place of execution. The action is swift, the feeling intense and the plot such as to cause the audience to await its outcome with hated breath.
Important Characters.
The personal charm and artistry of Miss Mary Beckett will be a real feature in this performance of Damon and Pythias at the Nixon on May 30th. Miss Beckett will play the role of Hermion, wife of Damon. The part calls for rare emotional ability and the selection of Miss Beckett for the part is a happy one. In addition to her dramatic rendition Miss Beckett, who was perhaps the first of our female performers, the field of dance dancing, and who is a real artist in this line, will execute one of her own dances in her own iminitable style.
Perhaps one of the most clever characterizations of the play is that given by Kenneth Edward as Dionysius, a common soldier, who through sheer will power and subtle trickery becomes general of the army and finally king of Syracuse, and through his demeanor around which the set centers. Another important role which is exceptionally well played is that of Philistus, president of the senate, as interpreted by William Minor. Joseph Ellison as Procles, Gillmore William as Damocles, and little William Bauks as the child add greatly to the dramatic intensity of the play.
MOONLIGHT EXCURSION
The affair extraordinary for Decoration Night will be the Moonlight Boat Excursion given by the Monty Dolaney Social Club. It will be patterned after Henry Wilson's famous Moonlight Excursion of New York City, and the Committee will spare no pains in making it an evinon gill pleasure for all.

Texas Ranger, Seeking Pleasure in "Hill" District, Entertained A-Plenty.
David Wilkes, tall, slender ranger from Fort Worth, Tex., spending several days last week visiting in Pittsburgh, decided to go slumming in the Hill district and there seek pleasure among pretty brown-skinned girls whose fame for beauty had met his ears some time before. According to the story he told the police, two bobbed-haired, brown-skinned bandits, one of them armed, ordered him to throw up his hands while he was walking in Center avenue, near Roberts street, last Thursday in the wee small hours of the morning. Wilkes said that he complied with the request, and while one of the women held a revolver pointed at him, the other searched his clothing and relieved him of $170 in cash.

Girls Advised To Wear Gaudy Gowns
NEW YORK, May 15—Wear gaudy clothes, he aggressive and catch your man was the advice given to American working girls by Helen Gwynne, of Indianapolis, Ird, retiring president of the Y. W. C. A's national industrial assembly.
Bobbed hair also was prescribed by Miss Gwynne ar part of the costume for the working girl in humble circumstances.
Miss Gwynne, who explained just what was needed by the feminine workers of America, not only to get a husband, but to succeed in business, is a working girl herself.
"The demure, submissive working girl doesn't get very far in factories or matrimony," said Miss Gwynne.

Good Things to Eat
Spring Garden Salad — Three heads of lettuce, two teaspoonfuls of green mustard leaves, a handful of water cresses, five tender radishes, one cucumber, three hard-boiled eggs, two teaspoonfuls of salt, one teaspoonful of pepper, one teaspoonful of made mustard, one teacupful of vinegar, one-half teacupful of olive oil. Mix all well together and serve with a lump of ice in the middle.
Spinach With Eggs—Spinach requires close examination and picking, as insects are frequently found among it and it is often gritty. Wash it through three or four waters. Then drain and put in boiling water. Fifteen to twenty minutes is sufficient time to boil spinach. Be careful to remove the seum. When it is quite tender, take it up and drain and squeeze it well. Chop it fine and put into a saucepan with a piece of butter and a little pepper and salt. Set it on the fire and let it stew gently five minutes, stirring all the time until quite dry. Turn into a vegetable dish, shape into a mound, slice some hard-boiled eggs and lay around the top.
Baked Shad With Dressing—Split and wash the shad and dry with a cloth. Mix the shad and dry with the pepper, butter, and parsley mixed with the beaten yolk of an egg.

Fill the fish with it and sew up of fasten a string around it. Pour over it a little water and butter and bake as you would a fowl. Garnish with slices of lemon and water cress. Dressing—Boil up the gravity in which the shad was baked, put in a large tablespoon of catup, a tablespoon of brown flour which has been wet with cold water, and the juices of a lemon.
Kitchen Hints
Left-over Cereals—Pour left-over cereals, such as farina, mush, whole wheat varieties, etc., while still warm, into good-sized jelly or dried beef glasses. Then, when cold; they can be sliced in nice round pieces, ready to sauté for an appetizing luncheon dish. These slices look very tempting garnished with bits of jelly.
Another Use for the Blotter. — When you upset the bowl of flower on the waxed or varnished surface of your mashagany table, instead of using a cloth or velvet, wrap dried meat and blot the absorbent surface will soak up the water, leaving neither smear, nor cloudy mark.
Protect Your Electric Appliance Cords—If you have different cards for your electric iron, percolator, toaster, waffle iron, and grill, screw small hooks into the under side of the lowest kitchen shelf, or in other pieces of wood of convenient height, and hang each cord separately. If two hooks, at least an inch apart, are used for the cords, they can be supported by their terminals; the wire will not be bent when hung over a hook, and the cord will not wear out so soon.

Ridgeway died in the Kenwood Hospital Late Monday, night.
The shooting occurred when Green forced his way into his brother-in-law's home to quarrel with him because he was amarrying Mrs. Josephine Ridgeway, who was Green's sister. Mrs. Ridgeway and her husband were separated, she living at 5120 Indiana Avenue under the name of Josephine Eughes. Green had warned Ridgeway to stay away from his wife's apartment.
Ridgeway is said to have made several threats against his wife and declared he would kill her if she did not return to him.

Janitor Figures In $55,000 Damage Suit
PHILADELPHIA, Pa. May 15—(P. N. A.) A Negro janitor is said to have played an important part in a $5,000 verdict caused of a $5,000 verdict which a turned in favor of Mrs. Maude N. Sheritt against Mrs. Edith Fowler, a vice president ofadelphia widow, who it said had indulged in affections of Mrs. Sheritt's husband. The janitor, it was testified, once Mrs. Fowler's "spiritual adviser" during a petting parties" alleged to have been indulged in between defendant and Mrs. Sheritt's spouse. The fore-mentioned $5,000 of the verdict was to punish Mrs. Fowler and that $30,000 was to compensate the plaintiff.
to effect a reconciliation with her and wink-back her love. Mrs. Ridgeway refused to open the door and admit him. The irate husband then created a scene, and called the police, telling them that his wife would not admit him to her flat because she had taken up residence there with another man. He then left the apartment and went to his home in Ellis Avenue.
In the meantime Mrs. Ridgeway communicated with her brother and told him that her husband had been annoying her again. On several previous occasions she had been compelled to appeal to him for protection, and he had threatened revenge if Ridgeway still annoyed her. Green immediately armed himself and went to Ridgeway's home. His brother-in-law had just entered the house. Ridgeway opened the door in answer to Green's knock, and Green entered the house, gun in hand.
"I thought I told you to leave my sister alone," he said. Before the surprised man could defend himself, Green fired four times. All the bullets took effect in Ridgeway's abdomen. He was practically disemboweled, one bullet making eight holes.
Dr. Norman Potts, 502 E. Thirty-first Street, who was called for first aid, made heroic efforts to save the man's life. He removed twelve feet of intestines. Ridgeway was later removed to the Kenwood Hospital, where he died.
Following the shooting Green made no attempt to escape, but remained in house, all the police led. After being placed under arrest he refused to make a statement.
At the coroner's inquest Tuesday morning Green was held for indictment by the grand jury on a formal charge of murder.
That we have attractive, beautiful, bewitching and charming women is no news to us, and they are not all in New York.

Not A Pastor In Real Sense Of Word, Says Accused-Wife Purest Type of Womanhood
take Admitted That He Never Was a Baptist "Through With Mess," He Declared—Wanted to Connect Himself With A. M. E. Church.
Answering the charges of the Rev. J. G. St. Clair Drake, pastor of the Bethany Baptist Church, to the effect that guard of his congregation and of his wife were poisoned by A. M. Patterson, the latter, in a letter to The Pittsburgh union has disclosed some sensational information, hitherto known to the general public.
Filipino Liberty Bill Goes To House
WASHINGTON, May 15—Philippine independence got a vorable action in the House Inular affairs committee recently, by a vote of 11 to 5. This brings ciate your kind help and will show the same in a tangible way when I return. I am sure you are doing your best. How is everything getting along? I have not been able to visit any of the islands as I proposed, as yet, on account of being so closely kept here; but here in Barbados things are not so bright as I have seen them in past years. The Collymore Rock, A. M. E. Chureh, is pasted now by Rev. Mr. Smith, who wants to come to the states and I think by next spring there may be a change. I am to see the foreign bishop upon my return to the states and see what arrangement we can make in that connection.
He was not a poster of the church in the truest meaning when he left for his native land and was not when he returned. And yet I did not reveal this to anyone—not even the officers of the church. The course he persued, which culminates in his resignation after his return was equally as reckless and non-Christian as the accusation he made against me.
Mrs. Drake, to my positive belief, is the truest and purest type of womanhood, as a wife, a mother and a Christian. I ever met, and she is so regarded by members and friends of Bethany Baptist Church and of the City of Pittsburgh.
I desire to express my gratitude to the officers and members of the church for the published vindication in my behalf, which was un solicited. My knowledge and association among this people for 16 years have always impressed me with their best intention in right-doing.
I can only account for the extreme moral weakness of the Rev. Drake in that he gave less concern to the teachings of Christ and His kingdom and more toward his own emulation and accomplishments, which is a pitiable cause for any minister of the gospel to pursue.

Proposed National Country Club To Be Built As Shrine Near 'Heart of the Nation'
Proposed National Country Club To Be Built As Shrine Near 'Heart of the Nation'
PROPOSED
NATIONAL CAPITOL
COUNTRY CLUB
WASHINGTON
D.C.
NEW YORK, May 15—In order to build a "national shrine at the heart of the Nation," representative Negroes have organized the National Capital Country club. They desire the new institution to take its place in Washington along with the W. Commerce, National Geographic Society, National Academy of Science and the Congressional Country club. The underlying motive behind the project is that of race advancement.
While the National Capital Country club is not to function merely for the exploitation of golf, of tennis, but rather as a national institution with a broad purpose, it will not be devoid of social features.
Modern Club Hotel
Plans for the main building provide for a modern club hotel, where members may live for any desired period. Facilities will make possible the holding of important social functions.
In the club house will be ample bedrooms, assembly room, promenade, banquet room, grill, conservatory, music room, library and statuary hall. There also will be a swimming pool, gymnasium, golf course and tennis courts. In addition to the club house modern bungalows will be erected.
Some pertinent information about the National Capital Country club, furnished by the Board of Governors, follows:
1. It will be near the Capital City of the Nation, where the world may visit and enjoy enrichment.
2. It will provide a suitable place for the assembly or conventions.
3. It will provide a delightful place of abode for visiting members, their relatives and friends.
4. It will provide a statuary hall where Negroes may place before the world their home, the immemorial race; further, it will provide wholesome recreation for those in search of outdoor sports.
The idea of preserving a portion of the main building as a statuary hall has been prompted by a sincere desire of many to commemorate in a fitting manner the achievements of outstanding Negroes and where individuals and organizations may give expression to their sentiments by placing statues or tablets to immortalized distinguished members of the race, including heroes of the World war.
Negroes have no adequate facilities for the proper accommodation of visitors to the capital of the Nation, nor is there a suitable place to hold conventions. It is the aim of the club to supply these urgent

Make Yourself More Attractive USE QUINADE
No other single factor contributes so much to personal charm and atractiveness as beautiful hair. Seeby's Quinade will help it. It will soften and improve the hair. It will soften barsh tinky hair, making it easier to put in any style its length will permit.
Quinade is a medicated pomade, scientifically compounded by an experienced pharmacist. It contains ingredients which stimulate the scalp and roots of the hair, and which are calculated to encourage its growth.
To get best results from the use of Quinade, the scalp should be washed regularly with Quinaseap, the ideal shampoo. Seeby's Quinaseap is made with a pure vegetable oil base and produces a rich, creamy lather, so desirable in a shampoo. It leaves the hair soft and luffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp, uncaused in other shampoos.
Insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Quinasao, asking for them by the full name. If unable to obtain them at your druggist's or dealer's price the price - Quinade 35c, Quinasao 25c—and we will send them to you postpaid. Seeby Drug Co., Rawson street and Queen boulevard, Long Island City, N. X.

According to A. Sainte, newspaper story, Henry Ford some years ago bought an English-make motor car. The following day a full page ad in the London papers announced, "Mr. Ford, the greatest automobile manufacturer in the world, after careful consideration of all makes, has purchased one of our cars for his personal use." Within a day or two, Ford london branch appeared with another full page ad: "It is true that Mr. Ford has purchased a _____. The tremendous demand of the public has not only swamped our factory, but made it impossible even for Mr. Ford to obtain one of his own cars for his personal use.

Miss Smith is singing some of her latest releases, some of her most popular songs as yet, and at the end of every song the applause is so great that Miss Smith is hardly able to leave the stage.
The balance of the show includes Davenport & Carr, a piano, singing and dancing act, that is one of the best musical and comical acts ever shown here; Dick & Dick, an act co. This concludes one of the best shows ever shown at the New Lincoln since it opened.

$100,00 Pleasure Rendezvous Created at World's Playground — Built to Serve Vistors.
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., May 15
—Colored excursionists going to Atlantic City from this summer on will be pleasantly surprised in finding a rendezvous of their own, where amusements, comfort stations, rest zooms and the like have been provided for them by the Bacharach Athletic Association of Atlantic City, N. J.
During the part our group has been left to wander promiscuously up and down the island, without any particular place as a headquarters, where they could meet or enjoy the c...forts that other people enjoy who go to the shore.
Realizing this condition, a group of leading business men in Atlantic City banded themselves together to overcome this defect, and have expended upwards of one hundred thousand dollars ($100,000) in creating a suitable rendezvous at the World's Play Ground. The city officials, and the railroads, realizing the great benefit of such a movement, are co-operating heartily with the promoters of the park, and have promised to aid in every possible way in making our people comfortable while, enjoying the cool sea breezes. In the future all special excursion trains will run to within a block or two of the park, where shelter and comfort will be found. The Atlantic City residents are highly elated over this splendid addition to the fast-growing seashore, and the tourists from now on will be delighted with their jawt to the sad sea waves.
Leader House Has Special ActThis Week
Petite, graceful and pretty, direct from Detroit, and bubbling over with the latest song hits of the day is the delightful little song bird, Miss Iona Hayes, featuring in her song and dance numbers at the Leader House all this week.
Miss Hayes is staying a second week at the request of the many lovers of melody and syncopation and a special program has been arranged by the management to entertain the many frequenters of the Leader House Cabaret.
"Just a Girl That Men Forget",
"Haunted House Blues", "Longing For You Daddy", "If You Shiek On Your Daddy, Your Mama's Gonna Sheha On You", and many other latest hits, are sung by Miss Hayes in a way which would do credit to Broadway's best, and this together with her original dance numbers, makes by far the star attraction of the evening.
In addition to the above, in order to make this the "Feature Week" of their attractions, the Leader House has also obtained the services of Sherman's Syncopators, formerly of Bongiovannius "Wildwood", Rosie Motley and Georgia Driis of Harlem Fame, and Earl Line's se-

Of
Successor To Chas. Gilpin In Major Role
Capacity. Audience Yells "Bravo" as Drama Closes New Star Receives Four Curtain Calls.
By WILL ANTHONY MADDEN. (Special Correspondent to The Pgh. Courier.)
NEW YORK, May 15. — When Paul Robeson stepped out on the stage of the PROVINCETOWN PLAYHOUSE in his initial performance of the revival of Eugene O'Neil's drama "THE EMPEROR JONES" the audience must have felt that it was in for a treat. This was due to Robeson's dominating appearance as the "EMPEROR" and his deep rich magnificent voice. Although it has been said that comparisons are odious, still in this particular case of "THE EMPEROR JONES" it is next to impossible to mention, or even think of this play without speaking or thinking of Charles Gilpin. The reason for this is because Gilpin was the original "EMPEROR" with his great artistic success being a sensation and the talk of the theatrical world. Of course this is as it should be, for Gilpin was, indeed, a master of his power. However, Robeson's interpretation of the role left nothing to be desired. To begin with, Robeson has the physical part of what makes him the character portrays and with that powerful rich voice and the ease with which he acts. I must say the theatre has gained a "great deal by the addition of this sterling and promising actor to its ranks. All through the seven scenes he never backed to tragedy to comedy and back to tragedy and unless I am greatly mistaken, we have in Paul Robeson, one of the forth-coming actors of the American Stage, not Negro actor, but actor. if he gives the parts to play, regardless of the Color of the casts, he will rise to the heights. Oh! what a Brutus or an Anthony he would make. The PROVINCETOWN THEATER was packed to capacity and over-flowing and at the conclusion of the play, Robeson received four curtain calls, while the audience whistled, stamped its feet and canes, shouted and yelled "BRAVO". It was a wonderful ovation. Unquestionably, Eugene O'Neil is a playwright of exceptional and rare ability, but as far as the Negro is concerned, I am inclined to believe that he is a propagandist. He may not he one intentionally and as DuBois says, "O'Neil is bursting through." Therefor a certain amount of credit must be given him for the opportunity he is giving the Negro to appear in serious drama in plays of mixed racial casts. It, at least, gives the Negro the opportunity to show that he can act. Nevertheless, the plays written so far are genius productions of subtleness of the most insidious and damaging kind.
lect band. The latter will render a specially arranged program on Sunday evening. I you have a few hours to idle away, the Leader House's Second Floor Dining room will be the ideal spot to spend the evening.
Souvenir prizes of silver pencils with gold tubes of lead will be given away at the Saturday matinee... At all the performances of Mae Murray in "Madamoiselle Midnight" a special souvenir will be given away to the ladies.

PROTEST AGAINST WRONG
To submit in silence when we should protest makes cowards out of men. The human race has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised against injustice, ignorance and lust, the inquisition yet would serve the law, and guillotines decide our least disputes. The few who dare, must speak and speak again to right the wrongs of many. — Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

board of bishops, delivered by Bishop L. W. Kyles of Winston Salem, N. C., marked the early sessions.
Welcome by City
On Wednesday evening the "keys to the city of Indianapolis" literally speaking, were given the visiting delegates when representatives of the mayor welcomed them, and told them that the famous "Hoosier" hospitality would be theirs as long as they desired it.
Thursday evening Dr. Bryant of Detroit, Mich., fraternal delegate from the M. E. General Conference, delivered his message. Response was made by Rev. S. L. Corrothers, D. D., of Newark, N. J., Friday morning, the general officers rendered their report, showing the progress made in the various departments.
Friday evening, the delegates were guests of a mammoth banquet, given by the citizens of the city. More than 2,000 people attended.
Bishopric Fight Booms There seems to be a strong sentiment for the election of five bishops. Many of the bishops have instructed their delegates to vote according to their own judgment. It is evident, however, that there will be strong pressure brought to bear to elect five bishops and this move will be bitterly opposed by some.
Among the candidates for bishopric are E. D. W. Jones, Washington, D. C.; C. C. Alleyne, H. J. Callis, W. C. Brown, A. A. Crooke, S. L. Corrothers, H. M. Mullen, F. M. Jacebs, B. B. Shaw, T. J. Moppins, W. W. Matthews, J. W. Walls, J. W. Martin and E. L. Madison, W. H. Davenport, J. H. Anderson and S. A. Chambers are leading candidates for the editorship of the Star of Zion.
The election of the bishops will take place this week.

BOSSED HAIR AND BARE ARMS
BANNED TO CONFERENCE
the words of Bishop Flipper of Georgia, in a ringing address to the conference on the fourth day of the session. Bishop Flipper presided over the session. Bishop Flipper also read the episcopal address, which stressed necessity for progressive Christian organization, high standards for the pulpit, prohibition, political independence and a greater program of social service. Signs point to the election of four bishops. At present A. L. Gaines of Baltimore, President Gregg of Wilberforce, S. L. Greene, Shorter College, Little Rock, Ark.; C. M. Tanner of Chicago, Reverdy Ransom of New York and A. J. Wilson of North Carolina are leading. A. J. Williams was re-elected head of the episcopal committee.
Aarone Malone Defeated
R. J. Williams of Tampa, son-in-law of Bishop Chappelle, defeated Aaron Malone of St. Louis, head of Poro-College, for chairmanship of the lay delegation. The laymen are fighting for greater representation on the floor of the conference, suffrage for women and standardization of educational institutions of connection. This program is being led by George Vaughn, St. Louis; Willis O. Tyler, Los Angeles, and J. M. Avery, North Carolina.
The financial statement, ready by John R. Hawkins, showed an increase of dollar money to the extent of $322,000. This statement of progress brought the wildest demonstration ever seen in the general conference, but delegates booed the suggestion that the salaries of general officers and bishops be raised.
Women in Demonstration
Five hundred women left the galleries, and with banners and placards flying, paraded around conference hall, staging a big demonstration for woman suffrage. It is generally conceded that they will win representation.
Bryant Fight Loozis
Bryant Tight Boots
The fight is T. T. Bryant loops up as the big feature of the conference. Charges and counter charges, involving him as head of Sunday school union; graft and attacks of members of bishops' bench threaten to precipitate a hot fight as soon as Bryant reads his report.
The anti-Bryant group claims enough votes to defeat him and drive him from his position. J. E.

Tuskegee Loses To Morehouse Nine, 3-1
ATLANTA, Ga., May 10—Morehouse defeated Tuskegee 3 to 1 in one of the fastest games ever played on Morehouse's field today. "Lefty" Coleman, was Coach Harvey's choice for mound duty and well did he vindicate his coach's judgment. He gave up six well scattered hits. Ashley, his opponent, pitched Morehouse to four hits, but allied two of them to be bunched in the fourth inning. "Tuskegee's entire infield played a snappy brand of baseball. Sykes was the batting star for Morehouse, getting two of his team's four hits. Score:

night, as the bout which was originally intended to have taken place Monday had to be postponed on account of rain. According to the good word, the postponement will surely be made for Madium. They say he is to be knocked flatter than a glass of stale beer inside of six rounds.
All the sure-things boys declare that nothing else can happen. Wills is a better fighter, as a man to man proposition. Wills knows that this bout is but a stepping stone to his match with Dempsey, his dream for years. And carrying this thought into the ring with him, his serious介ien, concentrated on the task ahead of him, will simply mean that Madden will be pitted against the years of sagacity, experience and ring cunning of a "panther," who truly lives up to his name inside the squared arena.
House Sold Out
Much capital, however, has been made out of the fact that Madden has never been knocked off his feet, least of all knocked out, and the house has been a sell out in consequence, at the fancy price of $16.50 for ring seat seats. The bout is scheduled to go 15 rounds, and it is fact rather than fancy that if Madden stays the limit, the Dempsey business and "build-up" will suffer accordingly. Wills knows this as well as anyone else, and this but strengthens his determination to finish Madden as quickly as possible—and by the K. O. route. Students of physical training have looked over both men, and pronounced them to be in wonderful condition.
Important to Dempsey
It's importance whatever happens cannot be laughed off for a moment. Dempsey himself was just sufficiently concerned over the affair to order his brother, Johnny, to view the proceedings, from a point of vantage and report his findings, if any. He will watch Wills closely for evidence of his inclination to hold and hit at one and the same time, his ability to shake off a punch, or how his hands stand the gaff and other items of 'moment. All in all, the bout will be a splendid build up for the big moment in September.

Taylor's Potomacs Obtain New Players
WASHINGTON, D. C., May 15—In an effort to bolster the strength of the club both effensively and defensively the club has sent to Birmingham for three new players. An outfielder reputed to be the heaviest hitter in the Western League; a pitcher and a short stop. None of us will have any difficulty in recognizing the names of the above mentioned stars for they are well known. Crawford formerly manager of the Birmingham Club, Jones the fence buzer and Streeter, a pitcher of no mean ability. These men are to report to manager Ben Taylor, while the team is on the road and will be in rare form by the time the team returns for its double header with the Baltimore Black Sox, May 30.

BASE BALL JOTTINGS
The 1984 baseball season has not yet progressed far enough to pass judgment of the ball clubs. The East has this much that can be said. Chicago Detroit and Indianapolis are not any stronger in the East than Potomac, Potomac, Baltimore Black Sox are strong in the East with the other clubs remaining about the same as last season.
Lincoln Glenns with a young team should do well in May and June.
Homestead Grays have yet to lose a game. The club now has winnere and tied one. The Grays have as good a natural hitting club as any in college. Good. If not the superior of any in the west or east. Ruggs, Gray and Graham are all fast men, good hitters and have good strong arms.
Captain Beckwith of the Grays is getting many nice things and about him in the dalles. "Heck" has more to up to expectations and should be a power of strength in the hard games.
Gray and Graham formerly played with Tate Stars and Bacharach Giants respectively. Gray is well known in the country west, while Graham is one of the largest and fastest men in baseball.
Lothe Walker has played in four games. He has had four hits once, three hits twice and one hit.
Pittsburgh Giants have not yet hit their true stride. The pitching has been weak, which has accounted for their defeats to date.
Big Ed Edle arrived in Pittsburgh May 1, after sojourning with Rube Foster's American Giants for the past two seasons.
Rain kept the Grays idle the last six days out of seven.
Radio Inn inn Homestead with "Wooogle" Hurra as manager, in Homestead Gray stronghold. All fans are treated right.
Homestead Grays will play a six oclock game at Forbes Field Thursday, May 19. Their opponents will be either Harmurt or Martin Furnitures.
Just to keep in touch a little with semi-pro bainhill: Deana defeated centrals and Dana, 7-1; Natrona defeated Martin Furniture, 0-0. All this happened in one week. Believe defeated Dillahville; Believe defeated Bender; Believe defeated C. M. C. Homestead C. M. C. defeated Jannettet; Harmmville tied Dana; Harmmville defeated Pittsburgh Giants; Cumberland defeated Charleroi; Gamma defeated Cumberland. If this is complicated wait until next week.
Wonder what Rube thinks after four straight from Kansas City?
Bobo Leonard was sent to Indianapolis after Jimmy Lyon had refused to. Evans failed to make the grade.
Gerard Williams is the only western boy who is attracting notice in the Eastern League.

"Can't Go Home," Says Joe Rush
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 15—Sad days are ahead for the owner of the Birmingham Black Barons. Gloomy is this Rush person. "I can not go home, now," said Mr. Rush, a few hours after his arrival in Indianapolis. Upon being asked why such a sad predicament confronted him, Mr. Rush said: "Drive me to the station, I've got to find him, he's gone." It finally developed after much coaxing that upon his arrival in town Mr. Rush soon discovered that his pet dog had strayed away, presumably in search of that Hoosier hospitality so often spoken of by visitors and loudly proclaimed by local Hoosiers.
"Really," said the Southern club owner, "If I don't take that dog back home with me—Well, I'd better take him back" for the kids at home certainly be sore with me. He's got all of the home folks won to him. I'd give a good buggy horse to find that dog."
So if anyone happens to find a stray, small size Airedale dog languing for Southern climes, why, just in touch with Mr. Rush.

DARBY, Pa., May 15. They say Youth but the guy who made that wise crack should Hilldale ballyard on Saturday when Age something indigestible and left the pallid your stomach, while the veteran walked off with game. Yes, Youth must be served.
Stringbeans Williams, who was 50 declared war on Germany, was on the against Winters, and a pitchers' battle Williams held Hilldale to three scattered hits the Potomacs one hit, which was by G even more scattered. None of the to third hits figured in the scoring and thus son hit to not a run was earned.
In the fourth Goodrich missed a third strike for the first out. Captain Ben was franked to first, but Country Brown forced him at second on a roller to Judy Johnson. Eggleston struck at a wild pitch for first. "Country" checked in at third, his third strike and was safe at A wild pitch scored Brown and the catcher now perched on the hot corner. Anderson walked and immediately went down on a double steal. Eggleston counted as Lewis muffed Warfield's throw-in. Exit Mr. Lewis Carr, batting for T. Louverture Allen in the sixth, slid safely into first when Anderson jugged his easy grounder. Beans wild-pitched him to third and he tallied on Winters' long fly to Shively.

Kansas City Monarchs Are Hard Hitters
Indianapolis Will Face Real Test in Competition Against Strong Missouri Nine.
INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., May 15—The Kansas City Monarchs, champions of the Negro National League, who knocked off the American Giants in the opening series, four straights will have the Indianapolis A. B. C. Club on their menu starting on Saturday. May 17 at Kansas City and lasting through four courses. The A. B. C.'s have not been going as strong as had been hoped, due to the weakening of the club by jumping players, however, Manager Dismuke has lined up a pretty fair club of youngsters and is augmenting these with a few older players who will report by the time the club leaves for Kansas City.
The Monarchs will give the A's the acid test as they have good pitchers and wonderful hitters which alone should win for any series with the American Giants, the Kansas City tribe hit the Fosterites for a score of 57 hits and a total of 37 runs: Moore and McNair led the fireworks for the Monarchs, with 8 hits apiece, while Hawkins, first sacker hit out 7 safeties. The Monarchs gathered in the 4 games, 12 doubles and 2 triples off the Giants hurlers. The fielding of short stop Moore of the K. C. club was sensational and evoked much comment.
The Indianapolis club finally won the last game from the St. Louis Stars after dropping the first three. Birmingham opens at Indianapolis on May 9th for a four game series which will give-the locals a chance to get together and fit themselves for the hard going they are sure to encounter at Kansas City.
Trabue, pitcher, and a recent addition to the moundsmen of the A. B. C. club so far, has proved a good pitcher and with a little more coaching on how to pitch with men on the bases should be a winner against the Monarchs.
The entire Indianapolis club, with two or three exceptions are hard and consistent hitters, hitting the offerings of all kinds of pitchers.
The Kansas City series will probably develop in to a hitting and slugging fest. The odds going to the club who is fortunate enough to get the break

We just knew it had to come. There is a box-fighter who styles himself "Young Harry Wills". Atlantic City is his habitat. Johnny Dixon of Paterson invaded his town last week and gave the young 'un a neat and gaudy lacing before his neighbors. Dixon hit him with everything but the Boardwalk.
Now that William Tilden, who is frequently disguised in the public prints as Big Bill, has been declared a malign influence on the tennis game, it remains for "our own" tennis solos to blacklist Edgar Brown, national champion. Seems like he writes for the papers, also.
For the nonce we shall play Bosworth to this young man's Johnson. In Middletown, Pa., is a young athlete who answers when George Briscoe is called. All he did during the past school year was run, box, play basketball, football and baseball. He was conceded to be the best athlete in the Middletown High School. He is a very good student and also found time to play center on the Viala Big Five of Steelton. He is now utility man on the Dauphin Giants of his village. In addition he is business manager of the team.
Briscoe is 17 years old, weighs 185 natural, and scales six feet. During the winter he participated in some of the bouts held by the American Legion. He tells us that he is going to Storer this fall. That we shall watch his career with interest need not be said.
Gerard Williams is showing seaboard folk just why his services were so much in demand this past winter. That boy is one bird of a short-stop and should be close behind the peerless Dick Lundy when the season ends. Keenan did something when he brought him into the fold.
Padrona and Johnson (Kansas City) are sought by the Black Sox and Spedden threatens to bring 'em back just like he did Blackmon. Well, Pete Hill deserves a good team and if the owners spend the money and get the players the ancient Pittsburgher will give them a run for their roll and their confidence.
Extremes-Aubrey Lyles on South street in his $17,000 Pierce-Arrow and smoking a corncob pipe.
Danny McClellan and Ben Taylor are singing a duo these wet May days. Neither one can get his pitching staff in working order, the cold and rain having knocked all their schemes a gloy, as we Scotch say.
Being a team captain seems to rest lightly on the shoulders of Frank Warfield of Hildale. The former Detroit infielder is showing his top form and is covering more territory than he did last year, if that be possible. Frank reminds us of the Eddie Collins, who snared grounders for the house of Mack ten years ago. Eddie, then, was at the peak; today he is passing out of the picture.
These be the times when work means nothing but an interlude between ball games for some of our good friends here and hereabouts.
Sam Langford, never in the big money, but always in there, giving the best he had, taking two punches to land one, a square shooter. Lend a hand to one who always gave much of his little to those who were less fortunate than himself.
Hearken to Jimmy Dougherty: "When I think of the bout I staged between Sam Langford and Jack Blackburn, at that time one of the best men of his weight in the land, in a tent years ago, and then compare the fight they gave the boys for the money they got. I know that the game has certainly changed a lot. I matched the men and they agreed to split 50 per cent of the house. They fought 15 of the hardest, toughest rounds I ever saw two boxers battle. When they finished how much do you suppose they got apiece? SIXTY-TWO DOLLARS! That's every nickel Jack and Sam tooted away after they gave us one of the greatest fights I ever witnessed. Why, you can't get the worst preliminary boy to step under the ropes for that kind of money now. That day Blackburn weighed 139 pounds and Sam ten pounds more. A great fighter, Langford, he should be cared for in his trouble now."
One Willie Ward, who is sometimes referred to among followers of the ring game as Kid Norfolk, and Harry Greb, world's middleweight champion, have been suspended for six months in New York. This is by way of being sympathetic with the Massachusetts boxing board, which set both fighters down for a half-year following their recent bout in Boston.
George Shively, who was one of "C. I.'s" young men back in the good days of the A. B. C.'s, is now with Brother Ben in Washington. He is as efficient as ever and that's saying something. We have seen worse outfields in the world than that sterling bunch of fly-chasers—Shively, Washington and Country Brown—who are the Potomacs' last wall of defense.
Around second, also, there is class. Owens and Anderson are a nifty keystone pair who will improve each day, a la Coue. Goodrich is one of the best young players in the league. Everyone knows what Taylor and Egleston can do.
The fate of the team rests on the more or less capable shoulders of its pitchers. With them will the Robinson-Taylor combine rise or fall.

Such a situation called for nerve and skill and the Civil War veteran had great gobs of both. Yes, we gotta give the glory and the spoils to "Beans."

Pittsburgh THE Courier AMERICA BEST WEEKLY
A story of the late war. "He had been shell shocked but love proved a greater disturber—and healer".
"TWO hearts that beat as one, two minds with but a single thought." Ruth Mason and Ralph Dale were in each others' arms, their hearts were beating as one, their minds thinking in unison, consequently when Ralph asked her the most important question of his life, she pressed her lips against his and murmured almost inaudibly. "Yes, dear, I will." He had asked her to marry him.

The day came when Ruth received a letter in a familiar hand, anxiously she opened it, and then almost automatically placed it on her heart. This, her first letter, she read one morning preparatory a call to the hospital, she ad a card by the maid. curiously, wondering at time who this early man could be, she scrutinized much, embarrassed much and discovered the owner of her Lieutenant Horace C.

Ralph had not been alone in "bidding" for the hand of Ruth. Horace Clark, boyhood_companion of Ralph had paid attention to her, but she had spoken to him of her love for Ralph, and had taken for granted that he was glad to hear of his friend's success. Horace pretended not to care and had even congratulated the young couple, but in his heart he had a bitter feeling against his chum, and did not altogether give up hope of winning Ruth for himself.
This was in the early spring, the wedding was set for the following October; then came the war with all it horrible and disgusting episodes. Ralph was young and vivacious; there was nothing to stop him from being drafted into the army, so instead of waiting to be called he volunteered his services, was accepted, and it was not long ere he was on his way to France. Horace acted in like manner and received an assignment in the same outfit. These two boys both in love with the same girl; one the promised husband of her who waited with an

Story o
Secretary To Boston Mayor, A Negro, Writes Gripping Race Novel
"By Sanction of Law," Written by Joshua H. Jones, Jr., Is Love Story Which Points Out Futility of Race Prejudice.
BOSTON, Mass., May 15.—The inspired purpose of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" again rings out in the recently published book of Joshua Henry Jones, Jr., of Boston, entitled "By Sanction of Law," a story of love that attempts to point out the futility of race prejudice.
Mr. Jones graduated from Brown University in 1903, and immediately began his career as a journalist and soon became prominent in editorial work on several New England newspapers, finally settling in Boston. He left journalism to become secretary to Mayor Curley of Boston, and has edited the Boston City Record, the city's official publication. He was for a long time on the editorial staff of the Boston Post.
Story of Thrills
His story presents a vivid picture of conditions of living in the South, and draws the lesson for of the heroine and the hero.
His story presents a vivid the South, and draws the lesson for America that mistreatment of the colored race cannot continue in its present trend without seriously harming the entire body policies of the country.
The book makes a strong appeal not only for its characters of sturdy New England type who stand for justice and right, of better class Southern type who are still passive to the wrongs being perpetrated about them by the less law-abiding, and the type of colored man who is an inspiration to his race, but also compelling interest of the story itself.
The story moves along with a quick succession of thrilling incidents, some of which are plausible and convincing, and many of which echo "movie scenario" strategy.
The author rises to the supreme majesty of his purpose in the scene where the hero is brought before the college faculty meeting and defends the traditions and hopes of his race in an audience of mixed opinions and in the race riot scene. The reader in these scenes feels that the author has struck his full stride, as also in the love scenes where the vital import of love is powerfully portrayed, but wishes that the author had created more unity of structure and emotional effect, by less intrusion of blood-curdling incidents, in the moments when quiet restraint would have equally filled the bill. That the heroine should finally discover that she herself also had a strain of color in her veins, rather thanades the issue, but makes a more pleasant ending which seems so vital in all good stores nowadays.
The Plot of Story
The story starts with a scene on the plantation of an aristocratic southerner when he is horse-whipped by an aged white tenant whom he has ordered off his place after having been a tenant for a number of years. The action quickly shifts to the North to a New England college town, where the daughter heroine of the story is to spend a year in finishing her schooling. In this town as the result of a street car strike and riot, in which she is inadvertently drawn, she is rescued by the hero. There are thrilling scenes, three of the most striking being a lynching scene, a cyclone in which the hero rescues the father of the heroine, and a fight between the brother
aching heart two thousand -miles away, for some news of her sweet-heart, fought side by side for months, going through all the hardest days, cheer the other for the sake of the girl they had left behind.
The day came when Ruth received a letter in a familiar hand, anxiously she opened it, and then almost automatically placed it on her heart. This, her first letter, she read and re-read, each time she reached the end she placed it against her psa "Mrs. Ralph" in her book "Mrs. Ralph" then continuing "O that the day will soon be here when I might shelter you from all harm." In this letter Ralph had told her of his numerous experiences, and of his quick promotion to the rank of lieutenant. Horace was still a sergeant, but a jolly good companion and friend. Days rolled by, then weeks, months and years, but the letters came regularly after that first one, how proud was this dear girl of her hero, her friend, her sufferings, together with her longing for him more than counterbalanced this pride.
Two years passed, we find Ruth in a lonely cottage a few miles out of New York, near a hospital for the wounded soldiers of Uncle Same. She had paid daily visits to this clearing house of cripples and invalids, doing all she could to console them and help to make them comfortable. Her home was furnished with the simplest kind of furniture, and she had settled down to a quiet life. Coming down to breakfast

picture of conditions of living in
of the heroine and the hero.
There will be many Southerners particularly who will condemn the book for its frank, outspoken preaching for justice for a loyal group of citizens. There will be also many who will dispute the theories advanced as to race prejudice, since the book preaches the doctrine of equality for all. The love theme is tender and the dramatic situations are tense. Throughout the whole the reader feels the honest sincerity of the author and realizes that the minor technicalities of plot and set-up vehicles of emotional expression that are meant only to heighten the generic appeal that the story so forcefully conveys.
He States His Purpose
The/frank sincerity of Mr. Jones is best illustrated in the introduction of his book, which he writes himself.
"I have not undertaken to present in this book something that will cause the venom of prejudice to grow more poisonous; to arouse greater antagonisms; but to lay before a fair-minded, love-governed world the only real solution of any problem of the many mankind face. "Having lived and battled in a world of prejudice, knowing that under the skin I was and am no different from any other human being, and knowing the fallacy of race prejudice, also the swiftness with which race prejudice vanishes when we know one another. I have tried to show how all can dwell side by side, good, patriotic citizens, living and allowing to live. "Not all the events described have occurred in the places where they have been placed in the story, but are based on actual happenings, nevertheless."
Mr. Jones is also the author of a volume of verse which met with instant favor on its publication. It was the "Heart of the World and Other Poems," dealing with the new thought to which the world is returning since the war, that of brotherhood and the deeper philosophies of life. The volume is the embodiment of beautiful thought, in beautiful expression and that musical rhythm which is so characteristic of the Negro who expresses himself in verse or music.
He also wrote the words for the song, "Dear Old Boston," which has been adopted as the official song of the city.

one morning preparatory to making a call to the hospital, she was handed a card by the maid. Taking it curiously, wontering at the same time who this early morning caller could be, she scrutinized it and with much, embarrassment and surprise discovered the owner of the card to be "Lieutenant Horace Clark, U. S. A." With a few hurried directions to the maid, she rushed back up stairs to make herself presentable to receive Lieutenant Clark.
Returning after a few moments, she found Horace, a little pale and worn, from the hardships of two years of service, but Horace just the same. She held out her hand to him and then suddenly burst into tears. Resting her head against his shoulder, she foreseed another word was spoken by either of them. Bracing herself up she asked him to sit down. And in a firm voice he related the story of Ralph's death, for dead he was according to all intent and purposes.
Horace began: "We were both doing patrol duty, he was my lieutenant then, in the early hours of the morning of October 23, the enemy started a sweeping fire. Lieutenant Dale ordered his men to 'cover' while he remained behind, assuring himself that they were all safe, told him to wait until himself was safe. By this time the men were all in the dugout. Suddenly a shell exploded near us, one of the splinters struck the lieutenant and he went down; I tried to rescue him, but it seemed almost suicide to attempt to carry him in through that hell of shot and shell, but I succeeded in my effort. It was discovered that he was dangerously injured, so he was hurried to a dressing station from whence he went to the hospital. I have never seen him since. I learned-afterward that he was first reported as missing and afterward as killed in action."
MR. AND MRS. HAROLD CHRISTIAN DASHWOOD
LONDON, England, May 15—Mrs. Dashwood was Miss Gwendolyn Taylor, daughter of the famous, composer, Coleridge Taylor, before her marriage to Harold Christian Dashwood last Saturday at Croydon Parish Church, England. The photo was taken immediately after the ceremony.
Ruth sat perfectly, still while Horace related his storytelling told him how she had received word of his death, how she had grieved and had finally decided to move out near this hospital, so as to be able to alleviate the sufferings of men who were as sick as she was as everlasting memorial to him whom she had loved and whose memory she cherished.
Africans To Be Taught Agriculture Via Radio
ALEXANDRIA, Egypt, May 15. Natives in the heart of Africa will be able soon to perform their ancient ceremonial dances to the strains of jazz through a radio loud speaker. More important than this, however, is the fact that they are to be given instructions in modern agricultural methods in the same way under plans of British officials of Kenya Colony. Trade Commissioner R. A. May at Alexandria, Egypt, has advised the commerce department that plans have been made to install in every African village a radio set with loud speaker. Besides daily musical programs, he said, farming instructions will be sent to the natives in their own language.
Horace after a while became a regular visitor at the little cottage on the hill, and by constant attention soon became the avowed affiance of Ruth, although she had often told him that her first love was dead and that she could never love him as she had loved Ralph. Ruth had promised to marry him, and this gave Horace some consolation, so he never refused to accompany her on her visits to the hospital when she asked him. Very soon the talk of the wounded and nurses alike was the little lady on the hill and the handsome young lieutenant her escort, and numerous were the predictions as to the date of the ceremony.
Spring had returned once more, it was just such a day as the one three years ago in which Ralph had held her in his arms and whispered: Will you marry me?
"I just heard," she volunteered to Horace, "that a new batch of wounded has arrived, among whom are many suffering from shock; we will see them first." They ambled in arm down the sharp incline leading to the hospital.
"Two hearts that beat as one, two minds with but a single thought." Two pairs of brown eyes met each other, whilst the owners for just a moment remained transfixed, then, as suddenly, fell into each others' arms.
"Ruth!" — "Ralph!" — came from each simultaneously. For indeed Ralph it was. The shock received at the sight of Ruth had brought back his memory which had left him the day he had been struck with the shell splinter, his injury at that time was not so serious as was at first, expected, but he had suffered.
There remained other things to be told. These Horace readily supplied, when he discovered that the game was up and that he could no longer think of marrying Ruth. The truth was when Ralph fell wounded, Horace's first impulse was to leave him there. "If he should die," he reasoned with himself, "there would be nothing to keep Ruth from marrying me." But that would have been the act of a heartless coward, his better nature told him, so he decided to rescue him, before doing so he had removed from his person every mark of identification. Thus it was that Ralph had at first been reported to the police, but he had transferred to a dead officer whom he discovered on the field, this accounted for the second report that Lieutenant Dale was killed in action. He knew that it would be a long time before Dale recovered sufficiently to identify himself, and he had hoped by that time to have made Ruth his wife.
Ralph forgave Horace in return for having saved his life when he brought him in through that awful fire. Horace was repentant and vowed to be the faithful servant of Ruth and Ralph for the remainder of his life.
Before the robins left for their winter quarters and the last leaves of their home, lost their wendery these three met at a little church in a country town, and after due formalities the minister concluded, "I hereby pronounce you man and wife." Ralph and Ruth found themselves once more wrapped in each others' arms.

Bandits Pay Dearly For Their Evil Deeds
Judge Cites Fates of the James Gang to Prove It
KANSAS CITY, Mo., May 15
As proof of his assertion the life of a bandit is miserable, a statement he made forty years ago, when as assistant to the county prosecutor he sought to convict Frank James of many of the crimes charged in his indictment, Judge William H. Wallace cites the fates of the members of the James boys. "Bandits without exception pay for their crimes; they pay dearly"
Judge Wallace insists. The James gang turned out as follows:
Jesse James was killed by Robert Ford.
Cole Younger spent 25 years in Minnesota penitentiary.
Bob Younger died in penitentiary at Stillwater, Minn.
Jim Younger committed suicide.
John Younger was killed by Captain Tull in St. Clair County. Bob Ford was killed in a saloon fight at Creede, Colo. Charles Ford committed suicide. Ciller Mill and Bill Chadwell were killed attempting to rob a bank at Northfield, Minn. Bill Ryan sentenced to 25 years in Missouri penitentiary.
Ed Miller was killed by Jesse James in Saline County.
Sam Wells was killed by posse near Northfield, Minn.
Wood Hite was killed by Bob Ford and Dick Liddle. Clarence Hite contracted tuberculosis in Missouri penitentiary and was sent home to die. Dick Liddle turned state evidence and died soon afterward.

Neighbors Tell Of Big Quarrel Before Killing
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 15. Mrs. Sarah Jones, 39 years old, was found dead with her throat cut from ear to ear in a house at No. 647 Locust street, Camden. The discovery was made by Beula Williams, 12 years old, who lives in another section of the house. The woman was attired in her night clothes. The body was sent to the morgue by Corner Leonard.
The police say that Mrs. Jones was slashed during a quarrel and that she had been dead several hours when her body was found. After an investigation the police sent a "fiery" out for the arrest of John Wise, 40 years old, who was seen hurriedly leaving the house the day the crime was discovered. Neighbors say they heard violent quarrelling just before the man left and that the woman was not seen alive again. Mrs. Jones rented an apartment in the house about six weeks ago. Further than this nothing is known about her.
Matron Murdered In Jail Cell, Woman Prisoner Vanishes
WILMINGTON. Del., May 15. Mrs. Mary T. Davis, (white), 67 years old, police matron, was found murdered in a cell in the police station shortly after 8 o'clock Sunday night. Annie Lewis, 23, who was locked up in the cell, escaped following the killing. The body was found by Turnkey Dutton, after a hunch of keys had been returned to the police station by a woman who gave her name as Lizzie Eckrich. The keys were recognized as those carried by the matron. Upon reaching the cell, officials found evidence of a desperate struggle. The matron was badly cut, and was broken. No weapon was found. It is believed possible, however, that the murder may have been committed with tin from a cup.
The Lewis woman, who lives in a remote part of the city, was arrested earlier in the evening on a charge of carrying concealed weapons. A pistol was taken from her. She was locked in the station at 6:20 o'clock and shortly afterward caused a disturbance when the police matron took water to her. She is alleged to have wrenched a cap away from Mrs. Davis.
Mrs. Davis reported the incident to the captain and returned to her duties. At 6:20 o'clock twenty minutes after the disturbance the Fekirish woman entered the police station with the bunch of keys. She handed them to the house sergeant, telling him she found them at Tenth and French streets, one square from the station. The house sergeant gave the keys to the turnkey to return them to the matron.
Upon going to the part of the building in which Mrs. Davis was working, he found the cell door open, the matron murdered and the prisoner gone. Police immediately began a search for the escaped woman. Mrs. Davis' body was a mass of cuts, the most severe incisions being around the throat. A ragged cut, extending fully half way across the neck, appears, from the type of wound, to have been inflicted with some instrument fashioned out of some rough metal.

Dr. Imes Endo Board
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 15. A vacancy on the Board of Education of this City, caused by the recent death of the Hon. Walter George Smith, made it possible for the Political Welfare Association to endorse Dr. William Lloyd Imes and to present his name to the Board of Judges of the Common Pleas Court, who make all appointments to the Board. The Political Welfare Association composed of citizens from all sections of the City and representing the majority of civic organizations, of the group, took rapid action in behalf of the endorsement of Dr. Imes. Petitions are being distributed and through the medium of the press, the association will endeavor to awaken the citizens to this opportunity to assist in securing the appointment of Dr. William Lloyd Imes which will give the group, their first representation on the Board of Public Education of the City of Philadelphia.
The brief address by the chairman in offering the matter for the consideration of the Association, stated in part, "That since there were at least forty thousand colored children attending the Public Schools of the City, it was no more than fair consideration, that this organization representing as it does citizens from all sections and wards of the city, to go on record and support with all our energy and power, Dr. William Lloyd Imes, for the appointment. Being unaffiliated from a political standpoint and a man of enviable reputation and indefatigable action, it would be impossible at this time for us with the good of the Race at heart to find a man or woman better suited or able to fill the vacancy on the Board of Education."
Numerous addresses were made expressing frank approval of Dr. Imes. Many pointed remarks regarding political activities and the 1. essary measure of the Colored people of Philadelphia, not to recognize parties who would constantly pick people for the group of col- lorists. 2. the opportunity of naming these to represent them in the various departmental offices of the City, State and National Governments.
The committee appointed to take up the immediate matter of Dr. Imes endorsement by the Association were: Charles Fred White. William A. Potter, Mrs. S. E. McCleese, Thomas Reingold, Andrew A. Rice and John W. Harris, Jr. After a brief interview with Dr. William

He is ever on the alert in the interest of his constituency, the children and teachers of the public schools as well as the citizenry in general. We know of no better man whom we might recommend and we hope that he may be given just consideration.

Now we are in the grounds. Huge and highly decorated cages hold all the beasts of the Kingdom. There is an army of remarkable elephants here—there is a giraffe, and further some polar bears. There are the side shows, offering all sorts of wierd, yet alluring spectacles and soon we are looking upon a something that startles and amuses us all at the same time.
The circus band—that whimsical, glorious, indescribable sensational music that puts pep into a lazy soul. The trapeze is swinging. Then a funny clown shoots out an charms the great big audience with his funny tricks. Trained seals pull off some laughable stunts—ah. A bareback rider arrives and jumps off and on a prancing horse until one holds his breath. Endurance—fifty somersaults in mid air held by one arm from a trapeze. Pretty horses, spirited and live; marvelous acrobats, fun, dance, and what not. Ah, with spring comes the circus and such thrills. Twas once said that the circus was only for children and fools. Thank God we are all children and perhaps a little fool, too, for with the soring comes the circus and such thrills.

Group Pay Tribute to John Brown's Grave
A large group of prominent Philadelphiaians went on a delightful pilgrimage to pay tribute at the grave of the great abolitionist, John Brown, at Lake Placid, N. Y. The President of the John Brown Memorial Association is Dr. Max Biber.
In the drizzling rain, the group gathered about the grave of the wonderful John Brown and a very solemn, yet inspiring, occasion.
Dean Pickens was the speaker for the memorial, and he captivated his audience with his native charm and unique wit.
Rev. L. W. Umes was also a speaker at the gathering. A line of very beautiful cars went over the lovely scenic roads and into the ideal northern part of New York state. It was a trip long to be remembered. Each year a pilgrimage shall be made by the John Brown Memorial Association.
In a marvelously decorated hall, with balloons hanging, soft lights and a gala group of lovely ladies decked in striking costumes of black and white, one entered a whirl of song and laughter on last Friday night.
This is an annual dance, and like good wine, it improves each year. It was really, charming dance, full of the spirit and revelry and fun.
Prizes were given to the best dressed man and woman who carried out most effectively the black and white scheme. Girls, selling all sorts of goodies, glided in and out of the couples and they were too sweet to refuse, so they did a rushing business.

Third Annual Fashion Show of St Thomas Was Usual Success .
On last Monday night the Knights of Pythias Hall was a scene of exquisite beauty and charm, when the annual fashion show of St. Thomas Church was reviewed.
The costumes were artistic and colorful and long to be remembered, because they were so well portrayed by the clever manakins who paraded the stretch of the beautiful hall. Gertie Monk played lovely strains, while the gay models showed the last word in morning, afternoon and evening attire.
All of the manakins were good and especially well chosen, but special mention must be given Mrs. Sol Van Kirk, Mrs. Lewis Mintess, Mrs. James Lennon, Miss Quita Bookrum, Mrs. Lawrence Christmas, Mrs. Hazel Wells, Miss Lella Warrick, Little Louise Warrick, Miss Louella Truitt and many, many others.
Initial "Prom"
Last Friday night, St. Peter Claver's Hall was a beautiful scene of mirth and fun, when the season's debutantes-gave their initial prom. It was a lovely dance, full of their youthful and exhilarating spirit. Good music, pretty girls, fine young men, did much to imprint this dance in the hearts of all present.

Carter, who is waging a war on
sin, in a sermon at the Zion Baptist
Church, said that "it is the
will of the Father that none of
the little children should perish;
we need the old-time family altars
established in our homes and
the children taken off the streets
at night. They should be given
the fireside training in obedience
to God and the laws of the land.
If this is done we will have a

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

By agreement of counsel the hearing for a temporary injunction restraining J. Finley Wilson, grand exalted ruler, and Clarence W. Jackson, district deputy, of the Improvement World, from suspending Columbia Lodge No. 85, for divers violations of the grand lodge laws, was continued from Friday, May 2, to Friday, May 9.
In the meantime the grand exalted ruler has performed about the purpose of the official action, as disturbed by the all-advised action of the trustees of this lodge in filing suit simply because he had cited the lodge, under the law, to show cause why it should not be suspended. The lodge however, in the third instance, in the motion. The meeting on last Monday night ended in a turmilw as Herbert Ackers, one of the instigators of the suit, and Tom Holland almost came to blows. To prevent the fight and stop the wrangling which characterized the meeting, the members dispersed within the lodge formally adjournings.
The meeting was more largely attended than any recently. An editorial appearing in The Eagle last week under the caption, "Scuttling the Ship," charged that a raid on the $200,000 defense fund appropriated by the lodge had already split. This brought the membership out in full force. No sooner had the meeting been opened when the charge was repeated on the floor, and an accounting demanded. It was explained that the charge was used as an itemized statement of the expenditures was called for, but John H. Wilson, one of the counsel, was only able to give a partial accounting. It was understood previously to the meeting that the lodge would be asked to appropriate $500 more; but mind that those who might have sought this additional appropriation failed to make the demand.

J. P. Hayden Makes Plans To Entertain
During the week of August 17th staid old Pittsburghers will find more places to go, more things going on, and more unsteal-in beds than they have ever experienced before enjoying themselves, and they provide the means for that very thing. Noble J. P. Hayden is chairman of the entertainment committee, and he has surrounded himself with a live committee, who is busy planning a Sunday night, August 17th, with a sacred concert by one of the visiting Shrines, which will be followed by a mid-night show. Monday night will find another show by outside talent, and its attendant mid-night house—everywhere in different state headquarters, ad mid-night rambles (whatever that i). On Tuesday afternoon, the H. J. Heine Company will entertain the visitors pictures and lunch. There will also be more shows, boat excursions and dances. Wednesday is the day for the Shrine parade, and on Wednesday night, the Shrine ball takes place. This event, with its many pictures and dances, dom and gravey, takes on the nature of a fete and is attended by thousands. Thursday is Knights Templar day. The parade during the day and the Templar ball at night will be enjoyed by all. Friday is Knights Templar day and the shoppers will put the finish to the much-delighted purge.

Additional N. J. Notes
Mr. and Mrs. Cleveland Hayes, of 183 Charlton street, bride and groom of only a few hours, were just returning from New York, where the marriage ceremony had just been performed and they were celebrating the event. Their method of celebrating attracted the attention of Detective Reiley, who was standing in front of the Fireman's building when the party was passing. The detective says he felt someone just hit him and he turned to ask the cause of the showing. He methodized at. At this point Mr. Hayes swurg an upper cairn at the detective, only to miss his mark and the detective attempted to arrest Hayes, but the resistance of Hayes, his new wife, the bride-maid and the best man was too much for Reiley to help and Policeen Bonnett and Mccormick came to his assistance and the wedding party was sent to a cell at police headquarters to await Judge Bootener's version of the affair.
A few blocks down the street we noticed a great crowd gathered and we heard a voice cry out, "I am Battling newman, and I can lick any man in Market street." It was about 6 o'clock in the afternoon, and the Rush was at its greatest pitch, when suddenly someone rushed Battling Newman, saying, "I am Battling Heckman; you are asking for a judge. Rooney the next morning, gave his name as Lorenza Newman, of 8 Nevada street, and said he had only taken a few drinks of wine because it was his birthday. The judge let him off with a fine of $5.
Alarmed by the strange surroundings, when she was taken to the City hospital for treatment of a slight scalp ouln, Mrs. Mary Atkins, 33 years old, of 99 Washington street, jumped from a ground floor rear ramp to the city car and ran two blocks before she was caught by hospital attendants. Mrs. Atkins had attempted to act as peacemaker when two men started a fight at 67 Rutger street, and, as usual in the case of peacemakers, the city one injured. She was cut on the head from a blow from a coffee pot wielded by one of the men. She was taken to the hospital in the Fourth Precinct police patrol.
Because she refused to return to her husband is declared by the police to be the reason for the stabbing of Mrs. Mary McCauley, of 217 Court street, last Saturday night. The husband who approached her near their home, is alleged to have attacked her when she was made his get away and his wife was taken to the City hospital, where it is said her condition is serious.

Serious Charges Dropped Against Prof. Alston — Is Second Principal — First Resigned Under Fire.
PADUCAH, Ky., May 15. After an all day trial in a crowded court room, Prof. J. H. Alston, head of the Lincoln High School, here was acquitted of a statutory charge preferred by a girl pupil.
Miss Willie Beatty, daughter of a local minister, charged that during last October or November, Mr. Alston had taken her to the Jefferson Hotel and spent the night. On the first ballot taken by the jury Alston was unanimously declared not guilty.
Attorneys Fired.
A vigorous verbal tilt between Jack E. Fisher, commonwealth's attorney, and Samuel Crossland, defense counsel, resulted in a fine of ten dollars being ordered against each of them by Judge Joe L. Price. False charges have been preferred against the Lincoln school principal as a result of factional hatred for the defense maintained, and developed when Alston, formerly an instructor at the West Kentucky Industrial College accepted the office of principal, Lincoln High School, when he was held since March 10, after he was named to succeed F. Harrison Hough, removed by the retired head.
Alston testified on the witness stand that he was called into a conversation with D. H. Anderson, superintendent of the West Kentucky College, and was warned that if he did not break his relations with the Rev. C. C. Carter, whom Anderson is alleged to have designated as an "enemy of the institution" and F. Harrison Hough, that something serious would happen to him.
A note was produced showing Miss Benty asked Mr. Alston for $5 and she would not expose him, it was brought out.
Alston said that he received the note, and that he did not comply with the demand, but wrote a letter to his father, the Rev. I. H. Benty, minister of a church in Rowlandtown, with indications that he might inquire into the alleged activities of a rival faction.
Helen Ketchem, a witness for the defense, testified that she had seen Willie Beauty during the week of March 14 to 19 in close consultation with D. H. Anderson. Other witnesses said that they had seen her toward the school building in school hours. The whole case adjudged a frame-up.
It comes that Hon. "Bill" McCull of Forth Worth, is lecturing packed audiences. He probably has a packed audience with the same skill he handled "packed" state conventions when he was in the political games.

Negro intelligence of two States, promised that if the Negro stood by him in the next election and helped to put his party over he would see that the Negro get recognition in a big way from the Democrats. But if we can remember rightly, that has been his promise for the last ten years, and when we stop to compare the record of his appointments of Negroes to office with that of his Independent Democratic Brethren, namely, Hon. Willham J. Brennen, Director of Public Safety of the City of Newark, and Hon. C. Gillen, Director of Arts of Newark, and Hon. C. Gillen of Newark, we can help but think that Hon. James is not sincere. New let us see who has Mr. Nugent appointed. He was instrumental in the appointment of Mr. C. Morton Brown, who for a number of years has been recognized by Mr. Nugent as the Democratic leader of the Colored people of Essex County. He was appointed to the position of "spittoon cleaner" at the City Hall, and when any of the Doctors or Lawyers, or of our ladies had the characteristic consult with found at the City Hall doing his duty. The other appointment of Mr. Nugent was that of Mr. Halsey. Francisco, another recognized leader amongst our folks, by the Nugent organization. Mr. Francisco's position is that of a minister in the Municipal Employment Dept. of the City Government. Now both these gentlemen are of the highest degree and are fully capable of leadership but what we are trying to show is ship and the jobs he hands out thinking apparently that they are always good for Negro leaders.
On the other hand, let us see what has Hon. William J. Brennen done for us. He has appointed six Negroes to the Police Department at a combined salary of more than $88,000.00 Dollars of more, and he befriended the Negro in many other ways. Receives Negro delegations cordially

on any subject and always promises to do what he can and what he promises. Now for Hon. Charles P. Gillen, a man who has proven that he is a real friend to our people! As Mayor of the City Hall, he applauded upon his predecessor, Mr. Thomas R. Raymond, the last Mayor of the City of Newark had under the Old Aldermanic form of Government, left off, Mr. Gillen appointed Miss Myrtle Williams to a clerical position in the City Hall. She was the first Colored girl or woman to ever hold any clerical position in the City Hall. He appointed Miss Myrtle Williams to Employment Bureau Directress in the Municipal Employment Department, Mr. Gillen broke the ice at the City Hospital, by appointing Miss Ruth Clark, a $1,800.00 per year clerkship in that institution, and the first of our race to ever hold such a position in this City. He appointed Miss Thomas to a $1,800.00 house, at the Iowa House, and other institutions, and the nurses were Miss Florence Nurse, Nurse Dept. of Health at $1,410.00; Miss Hazel Wells, Clerkyst, at the Ivy Hill Almshouse, $1,080.00; Miss Carrie Green, Maid City Hospital, $720.00 and maintenance; Miss Ida Long, Dept. of Health at $1,440.00; Miss Laundry Street, Nurse Dept. of Health at $1,400.00; Miss Janefer, Time Physician at the Health Clinic, $900.00; Mr. Edward Simmons, Grant Taylor, elevator man in the Centre Market, $1,500.00. Every one of these appointments can be duly credited to Hon. Charles P. Gillen, while there is another, Mr. Henry C Collins, who was appointed as the Office under the late Alexander Archibald, who compares all of these appointments by the men just mentioned to the weakly effort made by Mr. James R. Nugent to give the race two jailers in 25 years what can you expect in the next 25 years? Just ask any one from Hudson County what has Mayor Hague Democratic State or one can point to the many lucrative positions given the race by Hague He has given us Counsel to the Board of Health, he has appointed Jigret Nitty Bus Inspectors. He has appointed more than 20 Negroes to respectable positions, in the last few years, but "Boss Nugent" still satisfied to be able to continue jailers ought to be able to continue Negro voters to his stand, and despite the fact that he thinks that the Negro is not entitled to any thing but a few dollars around election time.

Fooling Us With "Race Pride"
we take some measures to stop the attack on men and women, we shall soon be unable for our forces for any real, honorable and important. Every day we are told of some shrewish history to some ignorant member of the country the ignorant man or woman is made a country has any number of travelling men, their wits and the "race pride" of our women as a means of collecting funds with the pockets of the "race men". Even used to defraud the poor and ignorant, the race pride" is used by every Negro organization an organization together. "Race Pride" when he wants us to rally hard against a building fund". "Race Pride" is the way Negro when we want him to stand by the people. We have worn to shreds the "Race Pride" is early every case, our ignorant men and of their hard-earned money, thinking in race advance. That is not all. We have taught our men, pride" is just the thing to have. We have so long until almost any Negro can afford any kind of fake scheme under the "Race Pride" or that. "He is a traitor to the race does this or that. Everywhere race pride into our people, for good and for evil, with acute credulity due to our high-power is the result? Anything that comes of "race pride" is welcomed with open heart investigation. Speakers, agents and the more confusing the name-all come to our communities with the "race pride" and our ignorance. Time to call a halt. We need to have time, and for the right causes. We every slick-tongued stranger who comes Idea in the World", expecting to sell to our "race pride". Let us have a well as so much "race pride".
Unless we take some measures to stop the abuse of our illiterate men and women, we shall soon be unable to assemble any of our forces for any real, honorable and worthy undertaking. Every day we are told of some shrewd Negro who tells a story to some ignorant member of the race, and as a result, the ignorant man or woman is made sadder but wiser.
Our country has any number of travelling "race men" who use their wits and the "race pride" of our unsuspecting men and women as a means of collecting funds which never get beyond the pockets of the "race men". Every kind of scheme is used to defraud the poor and ignorant Negro who has been taught that "Race pride" is the greatest thing on earth. "Race pride" is used by every Negro organizer who wants to get an organization together. "Race Pride" is used by the minister when he wants us to rally hard and long for the "new building fund". "Race Pride" is the whip we hold over every Negro when we want him to stand by the race and its interests. We have worn to shreds the "Race Pride" slogan. In nearly every case, our ignorant men and women are fleeced out of their hard-earned money, thinking they are helping the race advance.
But that is not all. We have taught our men and women that "race pride" is just the thing to have. We have preached "race pride" so long until almost any Negro can be literally driven into any kind of fake scheme under the banner of "race pride". He is told that he has no "race pride" unless he joins this or that. "He is a traitor to the race", he is told unless he does this or that. Everywhere race pride has been preached into our people, for good and for evil, until we are suffering with acute credulity due to our high-powered "race pride".
What is the result? Anything that comes to us under the colors of "race pride" is welcomed with open arms, without the slightest investigation. Speakers, agents, salesmen, solicitors—and the more confusing the name, the more profitable—all come to our communities with their schemes built upon "race pride" and our ignorance.
It is time to call a halt. We need to have race pride at the right time, and for the right causes. We do not need to bow to every slick-tongued stranger who comes to us with his "greatest Idea in the World", expecting to sell it to us by appealing to our "race pride". Let us have some RACE SENSE as well as so much "race pride".
The Nation's Editor

There appear to be, however, our opinion has suffered a shock. The editorial attitude of The Nation toward President C.

The normal attitude of mine has followed the editorial attitude of The Nation. No one has to inform us that the editor of The Nation like for President Coolidge. The editor has not noticed the administration, even from the viewpoint of Socialist, without permitting us to see clearly the difference between the editor and the President. I like to read anything which, on its face, bears a defense or derogation. The Nation could very much Coolidge by observing a significant silence, than closing personal dislikes on the part of the editor WHITE HOUSE.

For many months we have been reading The Nation, our somewhat radical Weekly published in New York City. It attracted our attention by reason of what appeared to us as a desire on the part of the editors to leave out of every discussion every phase of personality. There appeared to us a show of fairness.
Recently, however, our opinion has suffered a shock. We have followed the editorial attitude of The Nation toward President Calvin Coolidge. We do not know whether the editor of The Nation knows President Coolidge personally, but our one guess is that there is a personal acquaintance existing between the two gentlemen; and that there is a personal animosity of some standing between the editor of The Nation and the President.
It is so easy to be fair. It requires but the releasing of restraint to be fair. Our thoughts, when not colored by a prejudice, flow freely and naturally. We are fair when we are natural in our thoughts, natural in our expressions and natural in our attitudes. The normal attitude of mind is invariably fair.
We have followed the editorial attitude of The Nation toward President Coolidge. No one has to inform us that the editor of The Nation has a personal dislike for President Coolidge. The editor has not the faculty to comment anent the administration, even from the viewpoint of a radical, Progressive or Socialist, without permitting us to see clearly that there is a personal difference between the editor and the President.
We dislike to read anything which, on its face, bears all the earmarks of intended offense or derogation. The Nation could very much better oppose President Coolidge by observing a significant silence, than by the present method of disclosing personal dislikes on the part of the editor for the man in THE WHITE HOUSE. The personality of the editor stands out unmistakably that any reader may know that the editorial policy of The Nation has been swallowed up by an insatiable desire on the part of an editor to wreak a vengeance which has fed upon pure personal hatred for many moons.

Whether we know it or not, Pittsburgh is to entertain three organizations this year: The Odd Follows, The Masons and the Elks. Whether it was the part of wisdom to have three orders meet in Pittsburgh the same year is not now to be considered. The wisdom of the invitations extended should have been discussed last year. We have passed the invitation; we are now facing these organizations. They are coming, and we are to take care of their comforts, their entertainment and their deliberations.
Food and shelter are the chief conveniences to be supplied for any gathering. The delegates and the visitors must have sleeping and eating conveniences. Any other luxuries may be denied them, but they must be fed and housed.
Our committees on this and that had better stir themselves, or we shall find three organizations in our city looking for housing facilities and food. Now that we have invited these people here, whether with wisdom or without it, the job of entertainment is ours. The time to get ready is now.

THE
KLUXER
Wittollow. 29.
It was Booker T. Washington, we think, who once said that the man who builds a fence around his house shuts out more than he fences in. The philosophy of Mr. Washington is adequate for the recent reaction against the so-called Kluxer Stores scattered over the country.
Out in New Jersey, a man posted over his store door that he operated a "100 per cent American Store". He was not long finding his way into bankruptcy. The people who had previously patronized the store because of the value received for the money spent, discovered that it was not value the man was trying to give, but something not usually found among commodities sold in a grocery store. The patrons left the store in a body, as it were. The store went out of business. The "100 per cent American Store" still stands as a silent monument to the ignorance, selfishness and bigotry of the former proprietor.
We may be proud of our Americanism. Perhaps many of us can define Americanism, and then perhaps many of us cannot. Whatever it is, it is not the spirit of bigotry, selfishness and religious creed. We may build a fence around our house, but we have shut out a larger portion of humanity than we have included within the fence.
Protestant white man carries his revolver to church. It fell from his pocket, exploded and the bullet killed his daughter seated beside him. And yet, some of the white people think that Negroes are the only "gun toters" in this country.
Garvey has accepted the DuBois challenge, and what a flaying DuBois got! Now, if the dear public will just stand aside and let these gentlemen show themselves up as they really are, we shall soon be rid of both of them.
The financial report of the Crisis shows that the institution shows a balanec of a few cents above $198.00 for the year 1923. If we deduct from the statement issued the donations, we get a deficit that runs into the big figures. And yet, DuBois attacks every source from which these donations come. Keep it up!

On answer to Miss Mary Van Cleek of the Russel Sage Foundation of New England Moral Society. Dear Miss Van Cleek—In reading your item in the best published paper in the country. I found that you have not recognized the Domestic girls as a moral character. It behooves me to think that you have not seen a mixer. I have found out that the Domestic girl lives the ladyship of life as her mind is occupied by her Domestic Duties, she has no time for frolics and frivolity, novel reading, movies, afternoon dances, evening teas, cabarets, Raskellers, and all idle moments of t' days as they pass by. You will find that the devil's work shop is an idle mind, and it leads to the wishes of getting something for writing, and the foundation of that is private life of the Domestic does full, it is because you people of wealth do not want to pay her for labor. But you will find the poor mothers who have lip-stick daughters, piano players with painted and calsimided faces are the ones who make their living from an immoral standpoint of view, and quite a number of non-domestic ladies, up to this time, are hungry and clothesless and will. If they do not work how do they live, for the first principal that is taught in school is domestic studies, and you can not prove to me, on the well-thinking, that idleness is the first principal of livelihood of most women's success, because she wants to be hon-

"In defense of the Management at Sleighton Farm."
I was very grieved to hear through your paper of the race riot at Sleighton Farm, and more than grieved to hear the girls of our race being the aggressors.
To my horror, I read, where a Ku Klux Klan was organized by girls of our race, too bad. The girls who are sent to Sleighton Farm are incorrigibles but not ignorant, they range in ages from twelve to twenty, an age where all have some knowledge of books, especially, United States History. This history tells the story of why and how the Ku Klux Klan was organized. Knowing the past history of them and reading through the press of their tactics now being used, to further prejudice against their race, it is unthinkable that they will so forget race pride and use the name of the organization to further their misdeeds. Shame, Oh, shame upon them
They are morally week creatures, sent to Sleighton Farm to improve not only their morals, but their environments, education and self respect. I was affiliated with the faculty of Sleighton Farm under the superintendency of Miss Emily Morrison. I have never met a more intelligent, Christian and broad minded person in my life. You can see on first meeting Miss Morrison, she is in Sleighton Farm not for the finam

POOR GEORGE
(From the New York Herald).
It is not out of consideration for the misnamed Pullman porter but in defense of their own dignity that a group of United States Senators decry the practice of addressing the custodians of sleeping cars by that name. These Senators bear the name themselves. They feel that to make it the generic title of the industrious African gentlemen who take down berths is to cheapen it, and, consequently, themselves, in the eyes of the world.
People who are at all thoughtful of the feelings of others will agree that the custom should be abated. But it is of the porters that they are thinking, not of the Senators, who have sufficient standing to bear up under any appellations which their parents may have bestowed upon them.
Never is it pleasant to be called out of one's name, as any one who has been addressed by a truck driver or a policeman as "Jack" can well understand. The porter goes about his work quietly and efficiently. As a rule he is the soul of politeness. If he knows what are the titles of his guests he never fails to employ them in his conversations with them. If by an intentional error he can elevate the title he does so. For twenty years a porter on a train which carried Tammany politicians to Albany every Monday greeted each one as "Chief". He was the most popular porter on the road.
It is to be hoped that the movement set on foot in the Senate will spread, and that hereafter travelers who do not know the name of their porter will call him simply "Porter." Now that one of the guild has in a college address made it clear that a large proportion of Pullman porters are studying law and medicine, it is time that the world acquired a little more respect for their dignity as citizens.
gal gain, but, for the uplift of humanity. She rules Sieighton Farm with firmness and kindness; every girl on that farm received the same food, dress and environments. I was one of the faculty in Lincoln Cottage. The life in that Cottage was the same as the rest. Clean clothes, food, proper exercises; their training is as good as girls in College. These girls are under the supervision of some of the best and most intelligent corps of teachers, white e-1 black. Girls meet every morning in the chapel, where prayers, singing and a beautiful religious talk is given by the lovable and wonderful little woman. Miss Morrison.
IT WAS politics that later got the upper hand and ruined the Veraillies peace. However, bad the Lloyd George-Clemenceau-Orlando-Wilson treaty was, it nevertheless had some good points. It restored the sovereignty of several smaller continental countries that had been swallowed up by the big powers before.
And now politics is after the Dawes plan, Mr. Hearst writes his editors that "taking money needed for production and development and employment here at home, in order to stimulate production and development and employment abroad, not only will not provide us with markets, but is very dangerous to our welfare."
Mr. Hearst doubtless knows that while his position is seemingly sound, it is resting on a foundation of sand. Any country of the magnitude of ours is most prosperous when all the rest of the world is prosperous. We may have minor or internal troubles, but they are not to be compared with the larger troubles of devastated France, Germany and Belgium. To argue that money American bankers would lend Germany ought to be advanced to Western farmers is none other than to advocate "soft" money.
"There are consumers abroad now in ample numbers, he continues, "and if there is not a market abroad for our products, it is because we raise a tariff wall with the avowed object of keeping out foreign products". This is the usual Hearst jingoism. There are consumers abroad, it is true, but there is no money abroad with which the consumers can buy. The point is this country has all the money and all the goods. And added to that the consumers abroad are industrially and commercially disorganized and need capital to straight out their.commerce.
Mr. Hearst wants to keep American money to help Americans. Now if the farmers could sell their surplus products abroad they would not need help. If Germany were lent money she could buy. It is much more sound economically to put Europe in a position to buy then to inaugurate state socialism here. The Dawes plan points the way.
THE old feud between W. E. B. DuBois and Marcus Gawine has broken out now. Dr DuBois calls
Garvey has broken out anew. Dr. DuBois calls Mr. Garvey "a lunatic or a traitor." Mr. Garvey retorts that Dr. DuBois is "Doctor of Philosophy and Bunk." Without alluding to the merits of the arguments either way, this kind of thing is a public disgrace, not only to the men participating in the slinging of the mud, but to the rest of us as well. Dr. DuBois was only recently named one of America's ten greatest Negroes, which he undoubtedly is, but at the rate he is going he won't be long. The strongest reputation will finally wane under eruptions like that in the May Crisis. It only cheapened the writer; it did not defend him or explain anything. As for Mr. Garvey he hasn't much to lose. He is on the defensive and has all to gain. And if he succeeds in weaking DuBois to any degree he will have gained his primary objective.
Dr. DuBois ought to know that "golden" silence is best for him in dealing with Marcus Garvey.

THE STUDY OF SINGING NO PATHWAY OF ROSE

Just as the process of germination is taking place in the seeds which we have planted und. rgrown — so the voice with right training and direction is undergoing a slow and for a time imperceptible change, with patience and perseverance ever at the beach, indefatigable plodding and struggling to the end that victory may be the reward.
Then one must possess bull dog tenacity—the faculty of sticking to the thing once undertaken.
Discouragements will come, but they must be met and overcome with an opposing force of determination and the will to attain the goal of success.
Self-denial and acaciace play no small part in the studying of singing.
In no other branch of music is there the same demand for self-imolation;
In order to preserve the voice, one of nature's rarest gifts, to safeguard its natural freshness and beauty, the utmost care as regards health and physical condition must be exercised. All excesses must be shunned and even many seemingly harmful indulgences of diet and tobacco and many little gaieties entailing broken rest or irregular habits should be relegated.
To him who would conquer, the pathway is. a straight and narrow one.
Many people begin the study of singing with the idea that it is the shortest cut to proficiency along music lines, that with a fairly good voice and a teacher of some recognized ability, they will blossom into acceptable or even good singers after a few months of easy sailing.
"A man expects to be measured in the home by his success in business. He may be bad-tempered, indifferent and inconsiderate—but every excuse is made for him by the world and even by his family on the ground of the tremendous tension of his business cares. How different with a woman! Her efficiency is judged not by her business accomplishment, but by her success not only as a housewife, but as a social being. No nervous irritability is excused in her on account of outside bunness:pressure."
BY HARRY A. WILLIAMS
Mr. Harry A. Williams' first training was received in his home town, Cleveland, Ohio. He then studied three years in Paris under Delle Sede and Sbrigida. From Paris, he went to London, where for several years he enjoyed the patronage and protection of Tosti and Denza — living in the house, the greater part of the time with the latter, coaching and studying under him—enjoying opportunities that fall to the lot of few young singers, those of almost daily contact with many of the most famous singers and teachers. No matter the celebrity, no matter how illusive the house of man, we would think of going to and leaving London without paying at least his visite de ceremonie to pay homage to the illustrious maestro, Luigi Denza.
With Tosti, Mr. Williams coached in the singing of French songs. Later he was appointed teacher on the staff of vocal instructors at the London Academy of Music of which Tosti, Denza and Pollitizer were directors.
Returning to America, he located in Cleveland where he taught for a number of years, -going later to Washington where he took charge of the vocal department of the Washington Conservatory of Music. While in the latter city he organized and directed the Washington Concert Orchestra which presented many works of a very high order. He is now located in New York and actively engaged in teaching in the musical life of this metropolis.
The path of attainment in this, as in everything worth while, is, long, arduous and rough. There is no royal road. He, who would sing well must first learn several lessons — the lessons of patience, perseverance, "stick-to-it-iveness" and self-denial. Patience, because results do not
I hope none of our intelligent race people will criticise this school, but instead will plead with the girls, if not in person; through the press, to improve and not digress when in trouble.
It is unfortunate for those girls to be classed among the incorrigibles, but, it is far worse that they have brought shame upon themselves, by being the first to cause trouble in an institution that has stood the test for seventeen years. Sleighton Farm is deserving in every way of the name "Girls House of Refuge". It can truly be said if a fallen woman goes there and is repentant enough to help herself to become better, Sleighton Farm will do her part.
