South Won't Confer With Northerners
Atlanta Convention Rejects Conference With Northern and National Bodies.
ATLANTA, Ga., May 22. Voicing its determination to handle the Negro problem in the South without conference or consultation with the Northern Baptist convention or any other convention, the Southern Baptist convention, in session here last week, rejected a recommendation of its executive committee for a joint conference with the Southern Baptist, the Northern Baptist and His National Baptist conventions. It was attacked by Dr. B.C. Heningh, of Athens, in charge of Negro work under a home mission board, who said it would complicate a situation which already is delicate enough. He urged that the board he represented be left alone to handle the situation as it sees best. Dr. Livingstone Johnson, of Raleigh, N. C., a member of the executive committee, said the intent of the recommendation was not to have a organic connection with any other body on the Negro question, but that the action merely was taken at the request of Congressman Lowrey to do something to bring about better feeling between the Negroes and the whites.
Dr. A. J. Barton, of Kansas City, brought the matter to a close by urging that for the sake of simplicity, the recommendation be rejected and the Negro problem left to the home mission board, which is charged with the responsibility for relations between Negroes and whites. He said he was thoroughly in favor of the Southern Baptists handling the problem alone; as "the Northern Baptist knows nothing whatever of the Negro problem as we know it."
White Girl Wins No.2 Popularity Contest
NEW YORK, May 22-Flushing's No. 2 Popularity contest was won here last week by Miss Carrie Nelson, a white shoegirl. The first contest, started more than two months ago by the business men of Flushing, L.

Neither Miss Berlack nor the Jewish girl, who were first and second when the Green twiggers closed their iff contest, were entered in the iff contest, closed.

White Actress and Race Artist Draw Praise From Hostile Dramatic Critics
NEW YORK, May 22—Eugene O'Neill's sensational play, "All God's Chillun Got Wings", has at last been produced at the Provincetown Theatre at 133 McDougall street. Miss Mary Blair, white actress, has kissed the hand of Paul Robeson, Negro dramatic star, and world seems to be rolling on as usual. Nothing went awary with the much-heralded performance except that Mayor Hilan refused to permit children from the Gerry society to act in the prologue of the play, and that much had to be read from the manuscript by James Light, director of the production.
Woman Guilty Of Murder In First Degree
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 22—Louisa Thomas, 23 years old, was found guilty of first degree murder by a jury before Judge Ferguson. She was accused of killing Henry Saunders, a vice-squad policeman, whom she shot in her room on North Twenty-first street. Sentence was deferred pending disposition for a new trial.
Both the defendant and Saunders were married, but separated from their lawful mates, and kept-up an intimacy for about three years. On the night of the shooting they were alone in the defendant's room and the other occupants of the house, after hearing shots from a revolver, found the defendant crying hysterically and declaring "Harry has shot himself." Saunders was found in the bed, apparently in slumber, but he

Many who were present on the first night expected a riot of such proportions that the police reserves would have to be called, but nothing of the kind happened. The audience sat patiently and quietly throughout the performance, and when the hand-kissing and love-making scenes were played the spectators evinced more interest in the theme and in the players than in the prejudices and preconceived notions of what artistic values should be given to the public.
All New York dramatic critics praised the acting of the play and the actors except one. Even Alexander Wolcott from Alabama of the Spur spoke warmly of Robeson's fine portrayal and said the whole thing would have passed unnoticed had it not been for the sensational publicity over the hand-kissing part.

critics were almost unanimous in their belief that criticism of the work should come from colored people rather than from whites, since the highest type of Negro is shown following blindly after a demented white woman.
The Provincetown playhouse is a small place and only persons who purchased subscription tickets could witness the performance. Several colored people were in the first-night audience. The word "nigger" is used frequently by the actors, and other ugly words are said that are common to underworld characters. Robeson, according to all critics, has scored another triumph in his career. Praise for Miss Blair as Ella Downey is warm and generous. The play is still showing each evening and on regular matinee afternoons.
Family Rifts Threatened As Aftermath
Women Involved, Beg That Publicity Cease—Impossible to Get Pictures of Principals,
NEW YORK, May 22.—The charges and counter charges in the Dr. U. Conrad Vincent-Mrs. Vertner Tandy sensation, which opened up early last winter and promised devastating disclosures in open court, have been almost completely hushed up, and it is said now by persons who are supposed to know that the cheap imitation by colored Harlem society leaders of the James A; and Anne Uquart Potter-Stillman divorce proceedings have taught them a lesson about "talking too much."
So determined have been the principals to stifle all publicity on the future action to be taken that it is said photographs of either party have become almost unobtainable from any source of the persons involved. It is alleged that one photographer who was the regular family artist for one of the principals, was summarily fired forever without ado or apology when a picture he had made appeared in connection with the story several months ago. Most dreaded of all by many

Va., May 22.—Rejected the pathetic victim of unrequited love Everett Grubb of the well known Grubb family, "ended it all" late Friday night at the home of his brother, William Grubb in Hill street, by firing a bullet into his temple.

They rushed upstairs, forced open the door of his room, and found the victim lying face downward in a pool of blood.
Crumpled in his hand was blood stained note to his wife Sadie Grubb, in which he crudely and mercilessly admonisher her, "It is not because I love you have done this," he wrote, "but is because I have been treated dirty and unfair that I can't stain it no longer. I don't want to do you and be in trouble all my life. You know that I have been treated as dirty by you and your people, a homeless dog. May God bless you and in time may everything you have done to me will come home to you. Don't cry about me, even mention my name. Goodbye. Hope don't met you. "Eversole." Give Funeral Plans Grubb gave each person to have "Rev. Mitchell preach" his funeral sermon and requested Psalms 89, 70 and 71 be read. Bitterness and despair are expressed in a closing sentence. "All all, God did not hear my prayers. Left Sister Note Another note was found in Grubb's pocket addressed to his sister. It read: "You don't know what a fix in and I have never told you." All evidence pointed to the fact that Grubb had planned his death. It is said he was madly in love with his wife and their series of differences greatly disturbed his.

Counsellor Cobb responded to the invitation with a forceful presentation of the question, handling the technicalities of the legal principles involved in language that laymen could understand. The points of law were clearly cited and their application most convincing. The speaker mentioned several cities, such as Baltimore, Detroit, Los Angeles, etc., that are endeavoring pass laws to prevent colored people from purchasing homes in certain localities. He summed up the history of laws enacted by the legislatures of southern states and the decisions of the Supreme Court of the United States in making final disposition of them. He summarized the history of federal laws under the 13th, 14th, and 15th Constitutional Amendments, pointing out that though the first and second sections of the Civil Rights Law of 1875 had been declared unconstitutional, that the Civil Rights Act of 1886, post-dating the 13th Amendment and re- enacted after the 14th

To Discuss-Racial Discrimination at Big Conference
NEW YORK, May 22 — Experts on the various phases of racial discrimination will speak at the 16th Annual Conference of the National Association for the Education of Children in Philadelphia on the night of Friday, June 27, it was announced today.
Amendment, in 1868, had been repeatedly sustained by the Supreme Court and had established the rights of all negroes to own, lease, or reside upon property, irrespective of locality, community, or other conditions, i.e., equal property rights with citizens of other races. Counselor Cobb ably argued that the recent attempts to restrict colored people in their right to own property to colored people, is an attempt by certain elements to circumvent the Constitutional rights of the former, and absolutely illegal. He stated that there is nothing to prevent any group of people from banding together with the declared purpose of withholding the sale or transfer of property to a race or class different from themselves, whether to one-armed red-headed, or other people with stated racial or physical characteristics, but that the substantiation of such a resolution into a principle of law, and the invocation of the courts to enforce it, is entirely contrary to the express provisions of the Constitution, and therefore void. He expressed conviction that the Supreme Court of the United States would never uphold an attempt to override such a Constitutional principle at the instigation of an interested few.
Counselor Cobb was leading attorney in the case of Buckley, et al, or Corrigan and Curtis, representing the latter. This case arose from the contested right of the defendant (Curtis) to purchase and occupy a piece of property located on S Street between 17th and 18th, N. W., in this City. The case began on November 16, 1922, passing from the District Supreme Court to the Court of Appeals, where it was argued on Easter Monday, April 21, and a decision is expected at an early date. Whether favorable or adverse, to whatever side, this case will in all probability, reach the United States Supreme Court eventually, where it will be decided with finality and beyond all question as to whether one may own property where others have the same right. Counselor Cobb's brilliance on this case points to the success of our efforts.

White Father Not to Spring Death Trap
NEW YORK, May 22--The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People has received assurance from the Governor of Arizona that no white private citizen will be allowed to spring the trap at the execution of the convicted Negro murderer of his son.
When it was reported that H. Grosh, a white man whose son had been murdered by a Negro, was to be allowed to spring the trap at the Negro's execution, the N. A. A. C. P., telegraphed to Governor G. W. P. Hunt protesting at such an "atrocity on American soil", substituting private vengeance for execution by the State.
The N. A. A. C. P., in reply received the following telegram from Governor Hunt's Secretary:
"Report that Grosh, father of murdered boy is to spring trap at execution of Negro convicted of his son's murder is untrue. Story was sent out as sensational newspaper story. Warden of state prison gave out story contradicting newspaper report."

Shortly after 10 o'clock Saturday night out in front of 835 University Parkway. Robert dian at the place standing talking with Miss Sam Presstman street, crumpled and fell mortally pistol ball in his temple. A woman grasping disappeared in the darkness.
Half an hour later Miss Marie Ritchie, 910 University Parkway, station and surrendered, saying she had shot Smith.
Jealousy Causes Tr-gedy
Jealousy, it was said, was the cause of the shooting. Miss Ritchie is said to have been a sweetheart of Smith and is known to be visited him: often at his place of employment on University Parkway. Seeing her sweetheart in company with Miss Hayden for whom it is belloved she had been watching, she came upon the scene and fired the shot.
The bullet entered just above eye and he died instantly. He was taken to-the Mercy Hospital where he was pronounced dead. Smith, who was well known in the University Parkway community, where he had worked for some time, is said to have borne an excellent reputation. Miss Ritchie was also employed one block from where the shooting took place. It is rumored that the two had quarreled on former occasions and that Miss Ritchie had warned Smith of the impending tragedy if another women visited him.
Following a coroner's investigation, Miss Ritchie is being held for the action of the Grand Jury, charge with having shot Smith.

Immediately after the close of the World war, the Y. M. C. A. organized and made a part of its regular work an Interracial Commission for the purpose of promoting good feeling and better relationships between the races. Most encouraging results have come from the work of this commission. Naturally, its first efforts were directed toward the relief of the immediately distressing conditions following the war. The work developed so, that a more constructive program is in operation. Along with its other work the commission is desirous of serving the brotherhood by calling nationwide attention to the possibilities of the Y. M. C. A. as a platform and agency for interracial cooperation.

Charming Society Girls Hostesses to Mah Jongg Dance
19
Miss Margaret Wallace
Vice president of the Mah Jongg
Club and popular in the younger
Of course, if you are not "up on Mah Jongg" the very name will whet your curiosity to the breaking point when you learn of the "Mah Jongg Dance," in Labor Lyceum, Friday evening, June 6th, under the clever direction of a social club of the same title.
The membership of the club includes Ruth West Jeffries, president; Agatha Borden, secretary, and Gladys Seal, treasurer.
The feature and general atmosphere of the occasion will breathe the mysterious romances of old China. McDew's Royal Syncapetors will have charge of the dance program.
The club announces that the dance is complimentary to the High School and College Graduating Classes of 1924.
Such a unique affair, the first in the "month of roses," bespeaks a large and happy patronage.
St. Benedict's Club to Give Play
The St. Benedict's Dramatic club will give a play and musical in the church hall, Overhill street, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, May 27th and 28th. The title of the play is "A Ring Around Rosie."
There are four characters in the cast and the plot is amusing and highly entertaining.
The admission fee. 35 cents, is hardly adequate when one recalls the excellence of St. Benedict's efforts. The policy of making the entrance fee within the reach of all will no doubt assure a record attendance.
Miss Sadie A. Hamilton is chairman.
Moonlight Excursion
The Monty-Delaney Moonlight excursion, decoration night, on the beautiful, remodeled Vernie Swaine, is the talk of the town. Deppe's 20 Symphonium Serenaders will furnish the music. The cabaret features will be an enjoyable diversion.

Massage this sweetly fragrant lemon bleach into the face, neck, arms and hands. It can not irritate. Famous stage beauties use it to bring that clear, youthful skin and rosy-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.

Lodges Turn Out In Spite Of Weather
Rev. W. M. Johnson, Principal Speaker, Talks on "Friendship as Dynamic Force."
The annual sermon of the K. of P.'s given at the Soldiers' Memorial Hall, May 1, 1924, was a worthy affair. The various lodges (twelve in number) were represented and the members made a great showing in spite of disadvantages caused by the rain weather.
The coordination of the various lodges was given by the following: Sir S. M. Gilbert, C. C. of Oakland 30; Sister O. R. T. Ross, Alpha Court 169 of the Court of Calanthe; Col. H. W. Wilson, Royal Grand of the Uniform Ranks. The introduction of the Master of Ceremony was given by Sir A. T. Thomas, C. C. of Golden Engle Lodge, and Sir Wm. J. Smiley, Master of Ceremony.
Attorney Frank R. Steward gave a short address and introduced Mr. Woodson, attorney of the State of Iowa, who is working to relieve the oppression in the Virgin Islands. He stated in a speech to the Knights that the women in the Virgin Islands are so badly in need of nourishment their infant children are dying as they are suddenly unable to food and for th' reason he is endeavoring to put forth every effort to bear upon President Coolidge in getting his side in relieving our fellow men.
The sermon was delivered by Rev. W. M. Johnson, who not only is a great worker in the religious matters, but has helped local colored businesses. He emphasized the fact that colored people should patronize colored organizations. To show his participation in business dealings, he enumerated the following in which he has an interest: The Incorporated Grocery Store, the Brushton Real Estate, the Bancroft Publishing Company and the Young & Company Shoe Store.
The subject of the sermon by Rev. W. M. Johnson was "Friendship As a Dynamic Force in the World." His text was based on the following quotation: "A man that hath friends must show himself friendly, but there is a friend that stalks closer than a brother." Prov. 18:24. The prime thought of his sermon was "Make Friends — A Friendship Founded on Love and T: th." He further proceeded to show how this improves Christianity, for when one has entered into a true friendship, he respects the rights of others and does not infringe upon his neighbors' territory. Further, he expounded the principles of the Knights of Pythias Lodge, namely: Love, Harmony and Friendship—as shown by Damon and Pythias, for whom the lodge was founded.
In closing his sermon, Rey, W. M. Johnson defined a true knight. "A true Knight," says he, "it not only a man; he is a gentleman." Mrs. Jones announced at the meeting that there will be a play entitled "Damon and Pythias" at the Nixon theater, May 30, 1924.
Six Arrested In Dope Raid On Hill Home
Evidence connecting those arrested with the operation of a National dope ring, whose Western Pennsylvania headquarters at Uniontown was smashed two months ago with the arrest of a score of narcotic wholesalers and runners, was uncovered Wednesday when the narcotic squad raided an alleged opium joint in 55 Fullerton street. Daniel Hill, alias "Diamond Dan," alleged king of the Hill district dope peddlers, who has been using his highpriced care to deliver nerve soothing potions of narcotics to his people, one of them a dope runner, were captured.
All of the prisoners were locked in the Northside station, charged with violating the Harrison act. They were arraigned Thursday and turned over to Federal authorities.
Place is Raided
City Detectives Edward Harkins, James Hoey, David Corbett and Federal Inspector Frank Ferris received information several days ago that quantities of opium, morphine, heroin and cocaine were bein, pedilled almost openly in the h. district. They went to work and say that they succeeded in making purchases. The 'source of the narcotics was traced directly to "Diamond Dan's" place in Fullerton street, they say. Taking vantage position, the narcotic sleuths to have seen many of people known to be addicts enter the place. They cided to raid, and after officers had been stationed at the rear of the building the detectives entered the front. They found Daniel and Edward Hill, Oscar Mayham, Sam Wicks, Pearl Smith, all Negroes in the house. Margaret Covington, another addict, was arrested in 2328 Wylie avenue.

Dr. East Tells Of Africa At Conference
Weekly Session of Baptist Ministers Marked by Plea Of Famed Missionary.
The Conference of the Baptist Ministers was held at the Tabernacle last Monday. The main speaker was Dr. East, who has been studying conditions in Africa. Other speakers of note were Dr. Sheppard and Attorney Woodson. Dr. East was speaking in the interest of African welfare. He plans to aid these people by interesting the Baptist ministers of our city for lie feels that if the ministers can realize the necessity for co-operation in this movement all will be well. He wishes them to take up a collection for mission work once every week.
The place in which he is mostly interested is Liberia, for there everything is run by colored people. All the high officials are colored and there are no white people there. Their most beautiful city is Monrovia and he says that the most interesting scene is their soldier drillings. Pittsburghers would not think Monrovia beautiful, but Dr. East showed that if colored people were placed in a desert and had to do everything necessary for the upbuilding of a town, they would find themselves walking about in sheepskin. The monuments in this place are located in back of the House of Representatives. He mentioned particularly a monument erected to the memory of a colored woman who saved Liberia from invasion. He said that the Liberians were greatly in need of schools and religious instructions. He said that $2,000 would put a school in every American village and we should endeavor to help them secure this instruction.
Natives—The people of Liberia do not appear unhappy, but the conditions under which they exist shows that they are in need of help and sympathy, such as we enlightened people can give. They are in heathen darkness—believe in superstition which in fact they regard a. a religion. They have no uniform language, although they are ex-Americans and originally adhered to the Baptist faith.
People who have so far contributed to the help of the Liberians: Mrs. Collier, Mr. Diggs, Mr. Boe. The present missionary who delivered the speech has already bought 1,400 acres of land upon which he expects to open needed institutions. What they expect to do with property obtained in Liberia. The palm trees in Liberia are numerous and the nuts growing on them are used for oil if properly cultivated, and if a systematic means of gathering them are invented, this business can be made profitable. Also lands can be cleared and poultry raising, farming and cattle raising may be specialized in.
In closing the speaker emphasized the fact that the uplifting of our fellow race men helps us who are in America. He said that we must teach our men to hold their own against intruders and if they cannot improve Liberia it will be taken by the white man. Only the war has saved it so far and already a white writer has written a book in which he thinks he has proven the Negroes of Liberia are incapable of governing themselves. He wishes to aid them by making them learn to support themselves in a profitable industry:
As the ministers seemed to be dubious about giving their aid, Rev. Austin made a speech in which he said that missionary work relied mostly on the Baptist ministers and no matter who led in the action, all ministers should give their support.

Large Furniture Manufacturer In Financial Trouble
Large Furniture Manufacturer In Financial Trouble
Some time ago the business manager of a large furniture manufacturing concern with the reputation of making some of the finest home furnishings in America discovered an overproduction of about 12 carloads of furniture of all descriptions; made and designed by their best craftsmans and amateurs the treasurer called his attention to a bill amounting to thousands of dollars for specially designed machinery for making up-to-date furniture recently installed under contract; to be paid for when completed.
After speedy negotiations, the whole 12 carloads were shipped to the Pittsburgh Auction Co., with the understanding that the cash would be raised immediately regardless of the cost to manufacturer. The deal was closed by the sales manager, and the merchandise shipped at once. The following day an advertising representative of the Pittsburgh Courier made his usual weekly call and received equal copy with the large daily publications of Pittsburgh.
The 12 carloads of furniture were advertised at less than 50 cents on the dollar. Results of this advertising campaign were wonderful; even beyond the expectation of the manager of the cash store; even the furniture was advertised at less than half price, and in a little over two weeks more than six carloads; had been disposed of.
Customers saw the advertising in the Courier were 10 to 1 over other weekly publications and returns showed that Courier ads brought more results than the daily papers with the exception of one large daily and Sunday publication. There is another large ad appearing in this issue. All Courier readers should take more than a glance at the advertisement printed in this week's issue if they are in the market for real estate homes. Don't forget to mention the fact that you are a reader of the Courier when you make a purchase; as a special discount is given by some of our large advertisers to readers of the Pittsburgh Courier.—(Adv.)
McKees Rocks Man Acquitted of Murder
Abe Atkins, of McKees Rocks, was acquitted in Criminal Court last Thursday of a charge of murder growing out of a fight last December 24, when a billiard sue said to have been thrown by Atkins struck and killed Earl Curry. Atkins was the proprietor of a pool room in which Curry was playing pool. When Curry tailed a hole in the cloth of a pool table, an argument followed in which both men are said to have weilded cues as weapons. The jury held that Atkins acted in self-defense when he struck Curry.

Burton, well known attorney of the slope, and known to all who attended a supreme lodge session of K. of P., or Grand lodge of Elks, for his most valuable foresight and kindness in sending to this column this most colorful program of their Pagent and Charity Bazaar.
History of Golden West Lodge

Under Exalted Ruler Shelten's administration, the Lodge presented a number of services and has been successfully carried out. The Lodge has a successful career, until the United States has entered into the World of the members of our Lodge were called to the Colors. While it was the former and glory of our old world, the group has been provided a strenuous not only to our Lodge, but to all secret organizations. After the World of the World was远远地 blooded Americans returned to their beloved soil, we were only 17 members, along with 17 members putting a drive for the future. The group elected our present Exalted Ruler, E. Burton Ceruti, Attorney at Law & Law, and the Group. In the new life of the world, the Group is to continue the Drive for new members, and I will give credit where it has been paid due to the leadership of our Exalted Ruler, and the local members, we have successfully accomplished our purpose in swelling the world. The group will be the members, all in good financial condition.

With the election of effect of Pride of Newark (Eks) only two of the two风电项目 were an effective of Pride of Newark that were not hotter, and hotter. There are several candidates in the race for exalted status, but are both the most important wills for the present, and the most important wills for the present. A physician of this city, Dr Wright is washing a great campaign or his life. The campaign is the first of the two. One of the candidates that was considered very strong was drenched out of the air. Wright, that was drenched out of Wright, was thought by J. Leroy Exner. It was thought by Dr Wright that the people of the city were the most special committed that was sent out to have the lodge books audited by the kind of public accountable work being reported back to the lodge on an in-depth list. The meeting might be would uncountable to the people who would be closely injured his chances for the election, but it has been stated that the report of the special committee was limited to the special and it is believed that the report was further-called to the public. It is not the only one that picked as a sure-winner, despite the fact that the frienders of Wright and the new-winner are going to be waiting on him in his life. But there is one thing sure and that is it matters not who is elected. The new-winner is the most change. Several of the members must have visited the Elks' Home in Prince-the-King's House. The lodge at a cost of approximately $1,000 and is a model structure for the new-winner. New Newark with her 1,800 members to share the home that they have will be the most important. The new-winner is the most important membership and whoever is elected to the office of exalted ruler this time is the most important. The new-winner is the most constructive work, because the membership does not intend to sit in the home.

If next August in the Shrine parade you hear the cry "here comes the Deacons", don't be surprised at what you see. A group of men in long coats battered high hats and altogether sort of tattered looking, and walking with canes; then you will have seen the latest adjunct to Shrinedon. In Chicago in 1916, J. A. Jackson, a colored editor on the staff of the Billboard, and Billy King, the theatrical man, conceived the idea of forming an organization for theatrical men, musicians artists, and traveling men, who were Shriners.

Alienation Suits Filed ByMrs. Gibbs
On Way to Europe for Vacation, Former Fashion Model Names Prominent New York and Baltimore Matrons.
NEW YORK, N. Y., May 22 — Riding the high seas, on her way to Europe for a vacation, and with her three New York houses sold, the former Mrs. Margaret J. Gibbs, central figure in the sensational disdain of Boston society, has filed three separate suits for damages of $2,500 each in the Supreme court of King's county, for alienation of her husband's affections.
The women named by the former Mrs. Gibbs are Mrs. Mamie Wright, of New York City; Mrs. Theodore W. Babcock, of Boston; the wife of prominent minister. These three women are accused of alienating the affections of the plaintiff's husband, Charles Benjamin "Dimples" Gibbs, famous sportsman.
If service cannot be obtained on the defendants living out of town, suits will be instituted in the United States court, according to Counsel Perry.
Obtains Final Decree
A final decree of divorce was granted Margaret J. Gibbs by Justice Van Sielan of the Supreme Court by Kings County on May 8. She was given the opportunity to resume her career as Margaret J. Ford. Gibbs was directed to pay all the costs of the action.
In her suit for divorce, the plaintiff named the three women involved in the alienation proceedings as correspondents.
The former Mrs. Gibbs, a fashion model, formed the Mrs. Gibbs, a scintillating figure in the social arena of the Eust for several years, first came into the glare of the public spotlight as it is downtown fashion. She was alluring, enchanting, beauty, the young model was woed by many millionaires before she finally succumbed to the lure of "Dimples" Gibbs' personality, in 1919, just after his return from over there. He married before to a man named Carter from Baltimore, but and secured a separation. At on time she was a Broadway stage favorite.
Squandered. In her testimony at the trial, the former heir Gibbs revealed the searing facts that her husband had squandered and squandered over $100,000 from her since their marriage. She told of having set him up in two businesses and revealed his alleged intimate relations with other women, among them those mentioned in her divorce action.

New Castle Women Elect Woman Head
Mrs. Myrtle C. Dantzler, of 257 W. Grant street, was re-elected to the important position of committee woman of the Third Presidet of the First Ward, of the City of New Castle.
Mrs. Dantzler is the first and only race woman ever to be elected by birth from County County. She was first elected in 1922 over a white contender winning by a large majority and ever since she has taken the forward position in the registration of the colored women of New Castle. Mrs. Dantzler was born in Clear County and educated at Patton College, Pattonville and has been active for years in the relief organization and fraternal affairs of the City of New Castle. She is a daughter ruler of Valley temple of Elks No. 167, also secretary of the House Committee of the Women's Voter's League of Laurence County.
Mrs. Dantzler possesses a pleasing personality which rewards her much in awakening to the race the great opportunities afforded by the board. Mrs. Dantzler says she believes in the 18th Amendment and its enforcement, and she feels that every loyal American should be willing to assist in this great movement. Our race must use the Dantzler Convention to defend the National Convention in Cleveland in June.

ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., May 22
—Neval H. Thomas, of the national board of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, a large group more than two thousand of the other race on the Garden Pier, Atlantic City, N. J., on Monday evening. A group of whites who attended the mass meeting on Saturday desired that he give the Negro's viewpoint on the issue. Thomas entered the pier amid thunderous applause and gave the Negro's message on the Klan, segregation and all of the other handicaps under which he is laboring. The vast audience signified his support. Congressman Siegel, of New York, also addressed the meeting. The question of segregation is agitating Atlantic City as it is many other Northern communities, with many Negroes and whiteists. It is the first time that a Negro has been invited to speak on Garden Pier.

Protest Building Of Dancing Academy
NEW YORK, May 22 — Colored residents of Jamaica, L. L., in the immediate vicinity of Pacific and Union theaters are up in arms the proposed building of a dance hall on the corner of the two streets above named and will make an impassioned appeal to the Board of Education to support them in their intentions to keep from the beautiful city of Jamaica, which would be brought near the building on an opposite corner. It would seem that some well meaning but impenetuous colored real estate men are planning to make the attempt to erect the dance hall in that section which so soon became the greatest and best residential sections for the few colored people who have been living in the vicinity for years.
FAMILY RIFTS THREATENED
AS AFTERMATH TO STORY
(Continued from Page 1)
whose names were never publicly mentioned in connection with the case was the testimony of witnesses who would necessarily be called if an open court hearing would be pressed to a conclusion. It is said many, prominent society leaders who have for years "stood high" begged and researched in fear and trembling, with tears in their eyes, that the case was outside of court. If once name swerge being called it would be doubtful where the scandal would end.
Another reason given for the quieting down of the scandal is the fear of indirectly injuring many important men and women who are not connected with the case because of the prominence and importance of the principal figure, the one of the most able surgeons of the race, having been one of the first colored doctors to gain recognition and be admitted to hospital practice in this city. Mrs. Tandy has been a social leader for years and is the wife of one of the race's most gifted architects—the man who drew the letter built by the Madum Walker at Irvington-on-Hudson. If it was proved that the charges made by either of these figures were to any degree, true, it is said other reputations might suffer by inference simply because of their prominence and high standing. ready it is rumored that Vincent's once task of encreative practice was cast in effacement, and if the case were further agitated he might be financially ruined.
The young single lady who was mentioned in the liaison, it is said, has pleaded and begged that no more be published for her sake alone. And one beautiful married woman who was mentioned, given her husband saw her name, instantly made a correction in the press on pain of being left cold if she did not settled, as far as can be ascertained, but the completion is likely to be far less beautiful and pompous than was first announced by each side concerned.

On the stand Mrs. Thomas said that after many quarrels with Sanders she had endeavored to break off their relationship and her persisted in following her and awaiting her until she would forgive him. It was for his purpose that Sanders had sought her on the night of the fatal shooting, but she had become determined, she testified, and refused to be friends again.
She said Saunders then drew his revolver and threatened her with it. She grabbed for the gun when one shot rang out and she then "pulled the trigger, being so scared and frightened I did not know what I was doing. I thought I was not myself."

A Column About New York Theatrical Folk
We are immeasurably pleased that the "Stittsburgh Courier" did not fail for the timeframe that the Jim Crow editor of the white New York publication on the recent "Hill Street" play, the Lafayette Theater, and the Lafayette only for two weeks, then did a flair.
One of two New York writers and the nerve to tell the public that they were not even dressed up to pass for new, dark and old hats and detailed account of the success of the show, sending out a long and detailed account of the success of the show, the Lafayette for two weeks. We understand that there were exactly $25 on hand to meet the payroll and end the out of the two weeks' run.

The song writers also continue reap a rich harvest, especially a catering to the "submerged to along bluer lines." The records player will keep quite a few of boys buoy turning out stuff they are not, but busy playing for radio fans. By those not in a pos to know we firmly believe that will be one of the most prosperous summer of our entertain song writers, etc.

In a white house where shows of this kind have not been worked to death, "Hip and Run" would in doubt be the previous vehicle by the same people, but in colored houses it is bound to meet the fate of the latter offering, which went to pieces in Chicago. Were it not only to cater to performers, but to also give the renders of the paper a fair break by telling the truth of our shows, thereby winning the respect of the people as a whole.
"The Club Alabam," with a hey of pretty dancing girls, closed a two weeks' engagement at the Lufauffe Theater last week. This aggregative show will groundy making good end from all indications will be sent into a big summer resort to hold down this end of the bill all summer.
Messas, Hunter, Rogers and Roberts are rehearsing a new show at Bryant Halt. Last season Hunter appeared on an annual anthology and while broadway did not see anything unusual in the show they silenced out Hunter for special attention. The show is one of the men behind Glenman one of the men behind behind the previous show with Messas, Goldberg and Harris, happens to be on the show for the finale. The production will be a wonderland if goldberg will make his appearance at the psychological moment. Harris returned to his law practice in New York and the finale for the song numbers which he had hoped would bring him fame via the "Horne Come" vehicle.
The Lafayette Theater is again passing through the "valley and the shadow. For weeks things have been happening with his swing into vaudeville. This means that there are no colored attractions available with the exception of the last experiment with "Hit and Run" being disastrous, the management hesitated at using the material from Quintet, which was a hit which at times comes into the Lincoln Theater from South street, Philadelphia.
The week that the "Club Alabama" came to the Lafayette Theater Manor, that he is fully alive to the trend of things. No sooner had the announcement been strung up on Seventh avenue made public by Sounders, Cora Green, Hamtee Harrington and many other well known colored artists had been spruced up by the following week Synder brought in "The Hunchback" or Nora Dana, supported by George Whiting, things humming at the Lincoln and prevented a stampede to the Seventh avenue house.
The majority of the colored necropsies with the good looking indices of the chorus are now being discussed about the cabbies in Harlem and with three or four downtown this keeps quite a few of our people, who certainly of read shows, regularly employed. The revue craze has meant

With the departure of Miller and Lyles and the "Runnin' Wild" company it leaves the road wide open where they shall meet the White way. Many have been called in the past, but few have been chosen and now all New York is anxiously looking forward to the coming of the season, when the city with which Chicago seemed to have welcomed right heartily. Of these days they are going to dir up some Brooks out at the head of a big show. He is about the biggest colored comedian running around loose these days, but one with the ability to draw the attention of almost any colored show now going or to be conceived.

The "Steppin' Out" Four, and z chorus of thirty men and women.

Miller's "Liza" at the Lafayette This Week
NEW YORK. May 22—Irvin G. Miller. "Liza" playing a return date at the Lafayette theatre is meeting with a good measure of appreciation at the hands of theatre goers in the big city. Getting off to a fine start on Monday night of this week they are holding tch pace and should close going big. "Liza" is a standard musical play which has met with success on the road and held things down at Daly's theatre for a while before hitting the one night stands.

5000 Fight Bugs Acclaim Godfrey As Farmer Lodge Falls For Count In Third
"Gorger" Scores Five Knockdowns on Man Who Withstood Firpo's Attack for Six Rounds—Johnny Griffin Loses.
By W. Rollo Wilson
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 22—George Godfrey, whom our boy friend Gordon Mackay has dubbed "Black Lightning", added another notch in the handle of his knockout gun on Monday night, when he stopped Farmer Lodge, of Minnesota, in the third round of a scheduled ten-candid affair. He thus bettered by two the record of Luiz, the Bull, against the same set-up and goes into the hand books as a better man than Luiz, Farmer Lodge.
"Brown Panther," Bart Madden and Dempsey Compared
The following table shows not only how Harry Wills and Bartley Madden meet physically, but also how Wills measures up with Jack Dempsey, whom he has been challenging for several years: Wills Madd. Demp.
Let no man think that the agriculturist from the unattended reaches of the northwest is afflicted with a yellow spine. In that fatal third he was knocked down five times, three of those times being shot through the ropes by the force of George's punches, yet four times he came back for more. The last time Pop O'Brien could have counted a hundred over him and he would not have known it. He was cold and ready to be swept up with the rest of the trash and dumped in the rubbish harrow.
With 5,000 bugs at attention the heavyweight bout got under way with first round honors for both. There were 450 pounds of fighting men in there and they showed speed in spite of their bulk. Several clean blows were taken by each and an audible grung came from Godfrey when Lodge didn't miss a putt for his lunch receptacle. In the second the Gorger's blows began to slow up his opponents and get him ready for an early finale.
Unleashed by James, the Baron, Godfrey was in the center of the ring ere the bell had ceased its call to arms. He greeted Lodge with a staggering right to the solar plexus which gave the white man pause. Followed a right to the jaw and the Farmer tasted rosin for the first time that night. He arose and tried to fall into a clench but another job stopped him in his laudable intention and started him back and through the ropes. He crawled back and took nine and again tried to grasp the now aroused Alabamian. Another chin bruiser and another trip to the oasis between the ropes and the frenzied crowd. Again the dazed and battered Farmer came back from the borderland of slumber, and essayed a clinch. A left to the heart sent him down for eight.
Making every effort to weather the round he tried to cover the maltreated jaw but the human pile driver tore through his pury defense and dumped him over the horizon into a merciful sleep.
Friffen Loses
In the semi-final Johnny Griffen beat Whitey, of the clan Fitzgerald, for seven rounds and made him look like one of those Roman shambles. But Whitey, who can't spell "licked" kept coming in and taking it. With half the eighth session gone into objection Whitey connected a haymaker with Johnny's glass jaw and the Chester boy took a count. Still dazed by the unexpected collision he fought back with all he had left which was less than nothing. "Pop," sensing that Griffen was out on his feet, acted as mediator and awarded honors to the West Philly gladiator.
M. R. LLOYD BOYD of Newburgh, N. X., who could not walk and was laid up for five weeks. Cured of Rheumatism by "Neutrone Prescription 99".
"For the benefit of everyone who is suffering from rheumatism, I want to tell of the wonderful results I received from 'Neutrone Prescription 99'.
"Last March, I was suddenly taken with severe pains in my hips and legs. My knees swelled to almost double their usual size and the pain was awful. I was in bed for five weeks and could hardly move".
"Nothing seemed to help me doctors and medicines did no good. Some friends told my wife about 'Neutrone Prescription 99', and she got a bottle the same day. That night I took two bottles and commenced to leave. It seemed too good to be true. Within four days the swellings and rains left me and before the end of the week, I was walking. I kept right on taking 'Neutrone Prescription 99' and in two weeks was back on the job feeling as good as new.
"Believe me, I cannot say too much in praise of 'Neutrone Prescription 99' and want an alluremums to know that I have induced many to try it, and all has induced many to try it."
"Neutrone Prescription 99" can be
depended upon to cure eumetismism;
there is no need of anyone suffering
another day from this dreaded disease.
It does what it says it will
get: a bottle today, and say,
"Neutrone Prescription 99" now
will be a gift as well as liquid
food which never is preferred.
Leaving Drugs everywhere.

Keystones BoastStrong InnerWorks
The Pittsburgh Keystones boast one of the best infields in Western Pennsylvania. With Barker, the Toledo boy first; Frinkle Johnson, second; "Buck" Buchanan, former Tuskegee ace on short; "Doran" Hammond of the last year's Tate Stars on third and "Billy" Wiggins of Paine College, reputed to be one of the best second bastem in the Southern collegiate circuit, being use d as utility infender; Willie Johnson and Harry Williams doing the bulk of the receiving, makes the inner works of the Keystone nire impenetrable. "Billy" writes from Augusta that he expects to report to Manager Williams about June 1. The outer garden will be taken care of by "Deedie" Moore, who hails from the Knoxville, Penn, Giants; "Lew" Johnson, from Dover State College and the Philadelphia Giants; "Sol" Thompson, "Mat" Williams, Fort Valley High school, and Downer.
Downer claims that his pitching staff is able to face any team in the Eastern or Western circuit. The pitching staff includes "Blue Jackson, Darber, Abe" Harris, "Pete" Wallace and "Siki" Wilkerson, who just arrived from Tallahassee Normal, Tallahassee, Fla. Siki made his debut in Pittsburgh Saturday, holding the Immaculate Hearts, strong white Catholic team, down to six hits. "Siki" tips the scales at 180 and is in the six-foot class. He has speed, change of pace and a good curve ball. "Deedie" Moore, the Knoxville, Tenn., boy, is one of the best batters from the Southern league. Last week he had five doubles, one home run and two singles out of three games. The Keystones run down to West Virginia to play the Fairmont Giants on the 25th and on Decoration Day.

Eastern Snapshots
Philadelphia, over the week-end, was the home of several of the Eastern League teams. The Cuban Stars were here to take a couple lickings at the hands of the Darby Demolishers, which is the classic way of saying the Hildale Hustlers. The Washington Potomacs took on Trenton on Saturday and played in Hazelton on Sunday, sleeping and eating in Owner Robinson's Roadside. Colonel Ströthers, Oscar Charleston and their Harrisburg Giants played the South Phillies on Friday, and Chester on Saturday. John Hennery, Richard the Lundy, the rest of the Bacharachs handed Lits a shutout in West Philly on Saturday. All of which goes to show that the Quaker City is the best independent ball town in the country.
Farmer Lodge is now of the opinion that our little friend from Leiperville, Mr. George Godfrey, can hit harder and ditter than the eminent Senor Firpo. Well, having sampled the wares of each, he should be qualified to know.
Mr. Dougherty, whose ancestors must have been born beside the blarney stone, is getting much publicity from sport writers in this neck o' woods for George. We sometimes wonder if some of the gentry are not grinding a personal ax when they ballyhoo that Godfrey is Willmaster; whether they are not hoping that George would be lucky enough to "take" the Brown Panther if they met and thereby prevent a bout between Jack Dempsey and the graduate stevedore.
We used the word lucky with malice pretense, as the legal lights would say, for, while we have the greatest respect for the ability and the maulies of the "Shadow," we cannot see him in Harry's class just yet. He has a long and a hard road to travel before he is ready for the top rung. We can well imagine that some of these days George will be champion of the world and Lullow street.
That insufferable cracker, Ty Cobb of Georiga, allowed his temper to get the better of him again last week at Shibe Park, Philadelphia. A colored park employee was using a phone and the Detroit manager resented the fact that he did not immediately surrender it when he appeared-at the booth door. When the man came out Ty called him a vile name and struck him. Before the employee could retaliate several spectators seized him. Of course, the narrow-minded Bourbons, who head the Athletics, took the side of the "insulted" Georgian and the Negro lost his job immediately.
This is not the first time Cobb has assaulted colored persons in the North, but one of these days he will get the surprise of his life. Perhaps our readers may recall that he beat up a chambermaid in a hotel some years ago. Such is the Georgia Peach, the Southern gentleman. For all of his education and training he is even worse than Shoeless Joe Jackson and Shufflin' Phil Douglass, both members of the United Order of Hill Billies. He is just as much a disgrace to our national game' as those White Sox who sold out to the gamblers in 1919.
If the stands in Hilldale park do not groan under the weight of packed-in fandom on Saturday it will be because there is a big rain, cause why? The Bacharachs are coming! The most colorful team in the circuit will engage the champions and everyone wants to be in at the death. (Even our wife.) John Henry Lloyd will lead a team of major league dimensions onto the field.
At short is Richard Lundy himself. Dick is conceded to be the class of the country in his position. The one and original Corporal Charles Mason, home run king, fielder extraordinary, etc., and so forth, is the clean-up man. Rats Henderson, Harper, Lockhart, Carter form a wonderful pitching staff. Chaney White, Ramirez, Hot Dogs-Cummings and Reid. And John Henry enjoying a new lease on life at second base.
Mr. Tucker assures us that the famous alligator from Cuba will be on the job at the ballydart Saturday in the dual role of batboy and mascot. "Money" has not been taken on any trips as yet because the weather was too cold for him. Now it is felt that he has become sufficiently acclimated to allow the folks to see him in action. Therefore the talented animal will make his Eastern League debut at Hilldale on Saturday. Adolfo Luque, the Cuban pitcher with the Cincinnati Beds, has offered the Bacharachs untold sums for the use of "Money" for a few weeks in order that he may hit his winning stride again, but there is nothing doing. To quote Mr. Cummings, who is mouthpiece for the boys in the ranks, "That alligator stays with us, now and forever, amen."
Oscar Charleston, manager of the Harrisburg Giants, made some changes in his lineup last week for the good of the service. Pitcher Henry and Third Baseman Cleo Smith were initiated into the order of the tin-can. Jess Barber is back in the fold. (Squirrel and Beans Williams met in front of the hotel Saturday and fought over again the battles of the Spanish War). Georgie Fiall is playing third and doing the honors at the hot corner with the same grace as he exhibited in the short-field.
The other "heavenly twin," Fats Jenkins, is rounding into form slowly this spring. He has not hit his weight thus far, but when he does start there will be woe in the pitching ranks.
The Philadelphia Giants leave for New England and Canada late this month. Dannie and his athletes are very popular with the Yankees and Canucks. They have been invited to join the Boston Twilight League and may accept. The further one goes north the less one sees of colored ball teams.
"Perturbed Reader" wants to know where is Chappie Johnson. We will bite, P. R. Where is Chappie Johnson?
Art Fields, the Harrisburg athlete, is spending the summer with the Giants as skipper of their mother hus. Art looks fit and ready for a hard season on the floor. There is one bird who would seem to be ready for a berth on Loendi or Commonwealth. He is too good to waste his ability on a scrub team in Harrisburg.
Harry Wills and Bartley Madden are sure having a discouraging time trying to settle that account of theirs. The latest info is that if the Queensboro's license is renewed they will fight in the stadium on Friday night. If it is refused they will battle in Newark on Monday night.
Hilldale and the Cubans had one of their usual bitter struggles on Saturday and the Islanders came out second best. It was a free-hitting game and Oscar, Currie and Ryan were driven from the mound. Briggs and Judy Johnson led the Darby boys with the stick, while Baro was the big clouter for the clan of Pompex. The Spiggoty lineup contains the same men as last year, but some are in different positions. The incomparable Baro is on first instead of patrolling a dehigo has moved up to the keystone sack from first base. Chacon is still the reliable shortstop of old. Estrada and Cardinia, new players, are filling utility duties.
Rats Henderson gave Lit Brothers three hits on Saturday and shut out the store boys, 3 to 0. Touchstone yielded five to the Bacharachs, but they were enough. Mason was safe on an error in the first, stole and scored when the throw to get him at second went to the outfield. Lloyd's triple followed the Corporal's single and Lundy's double in the fourth and accounted for the other runs.
Where they get the dept that Harry Willis has no punch is beyond our ken. The form book shows that he has flattened out 44 opponents with something which resembles a punch. The Brown Panther has engaged in 94 bouts since 1911. He has been knocked out but once and that was done by Tham Langford. Langford and Willis met 17 times, Harry winning 11 of these acts, two by k. o's.

"Tiger" Flowers. Of Atlanta, Ga., sensational middleweight, who lived up to his reputation at the Commonwealth Sporting club last week, defeating Willie Walker, and forcing his seconds to throw in the towel at the end of the seventh round. Flowers has offered to meet Harry Greb and Mike McTigue, free.
'Tiger' Hands Walker Neat Lacingin N.Y.
NEW YORK, May 22—Manager Walk Miller gave fans of Gotham another opportunity to see his far-famed "Tiger" Flowers in action last week, when he sent the slashing jungle animal after Willie Walker at the Commonwealth Sport club.
The affair took place last Wednesday night and also served to introduce another great little colored featherweight in the person of Chick Suggs, who made a wonderful showing by knocking out his white opponent, Mercer, in the fifth round of a scheduled twelve-round bout.
In the Walker-Flowers affair it was all Tiger from the start. Willie Walker enjoyed this last chance at the hands of the McMahons, because of his reputed wallop, but like he did in the case of Estridge and Gans, Willie failed miserably and it was only the intervention of the referee in the seventh round that saved Walker from a more unmereal beating as the Tiger had both of his eyes tightly closed.
In the opening round of the fight the Tiger went out and pecked Walker from every angle, and after being certain that he had the Harlem boy all sized up and ready for the killing, he settled down to his work from the second round on and knocked him out, and defended him who, knew it was only a master of time when he would have his victim at his feet.
Chick Nugres made what we might term a most auspicious debut in instinct circles in the big city. Pitted against one of the best little white fighters that could be obtained to give him his tryout, he brought the fans to their feet with his wonderful two-handed milling, and although Mercer fought a most brilliant fight, the colored boy was too much for him and he succumbed in the fifth.

Home Runs Galore As Am Giants And Cubans Battle
CHICAGO, Sunday—A real slug-fest greeted the five thousand fans who braved the chilly weather here today and passed up the Ellas' parade to see the American Glants win a wild wooly, 15 to 14 game from the Cuban Stars at Schorling's park. Montalvo led the visitors at the bat, going officially four to five, the plate, the first time waving the old pill to the center field fence for a triple, and on the next three occasions batting the ball high over the fence for time for a homer. In the fourth and ninth there was one on at the time. Abreau followed colse in his team notes trail getting two doubles. Torienti started all the trouble when in the very opening frame with none out and the bases loaded he sent the ball over the fence for a home run. It was really a day for the fan who likes to see hitting and running. Foster was forced to relieve Owhery who had just arrived from Owhery College. Tom Williams went to the mound and lasted until the black BabyRuth sent one over the fence and Harney just to the screens. A running catch which caused Evans to turn somersaults in the sixth was the feature play of the day. He hung to tossed to Bobby Williams who nailed a backer before he could get back to second. The visiting infield wavered in the eighth, Gardner poked a puny hit through Martinez who was unable to get his hands on the ball. Hewitt with three and two singled to right witheran's error let Gardner score, and gave Marlarcher a life. Marlarcher stole second. Williams was safe when both Sierra and Martinez were playing in for the expected bunt and no one covered first. Hewitt scoring. Torrienti was tossed out by Rios, Grant fouled to Abreau, Evans beat a hit to Rios as Marlarcher scored. Brown batted for Roth and singled to right, scoring Williams and Evans. Pedrosa batted for Rios and fanned to start the ninth, Dreke singled to right, the Cubans were three runs behind. Montalva vocked his third home run of the day over the right field fence. Guerra was too anxious and fanned on a slow wide curve. Teran hit a nasty one to Harney but the local twirler came up with the ball plenty of time to get his man at first.

CHICAGO, Ill., Saturday—The Cuban Stars made their first appearance of the season at Schorling's Park Saturday and started out like world beaters, greeting Whitworth of the American Giants with five singles and a double in the very first 7ning, driving him from the mound and the Islanders kept their bombardment against Padrone getting a double and two singles. The first nine men to face Foster's twirlers hit safely and was not until after Serrara got a life on Padrone's error that the big Giant pitcher settled down and held the Cubans runless after that. The Giants found their batting eye in this series, twice Padrone slammed the bell over the right field fence for home runs, once with two men on. The Giants kept up their hitting against the offerings of Salazar, Pedrosa and M ritze. Perez led the visitors batting with two doubles. The score:

· New York City, N. Y — May 22
· NEW YORK, May 22 — The wise ones who witnessed the fight between Jamaica Kid of this city and Ted Moore, of England, are telling each other that "all actors are not on the stage" after the performance put up by the colored boy at the University of Sussex night, wherein he was satisfied to hear the announcer proclaim the English fighter as victor after twelve rounds.
This Jamaican is credited with h:vng knocked Jack Dempsey to the ground one afternoon when the champion dodger from Harry Wills got fresh and tried to show off beaten and bunch of friends gathered on him to do his training stunts in preparation for his battle with either Carpentier or Firino.
This same Jamaica has met the toughest ones in the game and is also credited with a K. O. over no less a sensation than Tiger Flowers, hence it looked rather funny to a number to see Ted Moore make such a wonderful showing over the colored mitt pusher. True, this Moore boy shapes up nicely in the ring and won a decision over Larry Estridge the night Larry failed to get that mighty left hand of his to work, but in spite of all that and perhaps some Moore, we noticed that Jamaica Kid apparently forgot himself in about the sixth round and clotted Moore so
Mixed Bouts to Card In Hat
Matchmaker Jess McMahon will offer another set of mixed houts at his Commonwealth Sport club for the following Saturday night and as a true recorder of events of the fictive world we cannot hold out much hope, for the colored fans after glancing over the card to be present. Well Bell, better known as Kid Buller, will toe the mark against Spencer Gardner, and if Spencer is going as good as he has been doing in his other fights in this section of the city, he should take the decision from Buller without, having to feel the effects from any clout from that great right hand of the colored boy.
That right of Buller's is a wonder—when it lands, but the boys he has been fighting seem to be so wise to it they seldom give the kid a chance to use it, and this has been an unhappy career, for what's the use of tooting around a deadly right mit if one cannot put it to the best use?
We can hold out a little more hope for the other bout, which will bring together Joe Coletti and Al Brown. Brown is the elongated feather with the deadly right hand which has been playing havee among the men of his class and unlike Buller and the host of other little men who have been showing' in these parts. Brown has been bringing home the bacon via the clean-cut knockout route, which will make an fighter a card. Coletti has the happy faculty of winning the sympathy of the fans early in a fight, not only on account of the fact that he is the smallest man of his weight in the world in the prize ring, but because of a happy disposition which finds him throwing a somersault at the end of his fights and doing the little

hard it almost knocked the white boy through the ropes and from that time on the colored fighter allowed Mr. Moore to "carry on."
The performance was good to look upon, and as it seemed to give the great number of white patrons something to be clated over, we feel that Jamaica Kid is simply serving his people well, as colored fighters have been taking the honors so steadily at the Commonwealth Sport club there was danger of the attendance thinning out and now they will continue to come out with renewed hope.
In the first twelve-round bout on the same evening they served up Eddie Riley as the burnt offering to Joe Mandell, of Philadelphia. Although christened Edward, the august boxing fathers of New York in the afternoon decreed that hereafter Eddie must be announced as Willie, as some pale-face brother is of the same name.
It must have been a jinx to Riley to have Peter Prunty call him out of his name, for Mandell hung it heavy upon him and Riley clung to Joe all through the fight. This made Joe mad and he pasted Riley aplenty for pulling that long-lost brother stuart Riley's fight was won. The spectators gave him the razz repeatedly, and we opine that his showing has made him persona non grata at the Commonwealth.

Dear Sir—It seems curious that you unfortunately selected just enough of my interview with you concerning the migration of the Negro to make me appear in a false light. You have taken two points in our talk and neglected to elaborate on them, using a text with very unjust to me.
While I did say that there was not room enough in the north for the tremendous army of migrants, I also amplified it by attempting to explain to you that the housing conditions in Philadelphia could also were acute. I told you that try as we might we could not find houses to shelter the people here. I said that, in some sections of the city, twenty and thirty persons were living in six room houses.

in 1917 to 163,000 in 1923. No new living areas have been opened up for them in that period. You should readily see that such conditions not only affect the physical welfare of the people but also tend to lower the temperature, making it easier to tell you that we welcome these migrants and that we want them here where they may enjoy freedom from peonage, lynching, discrimination and worse evils.
Now the statement that they cannot stand the climate. If you will recall, the winters have been unusually severe, so we have always lived in the north. What must conditions like these be to people who have a low temperature of sixty in their Southern homes' while we are encountering blizzards and zero weather? They must become scelimated. They must be taught to prepare and to dress for this radically different winter, pleasing the migrants, but insured me that the migrant is unusually susceptible to pneumonia and kindred pulmonary diseases.

Yours truly,

charity, dance at St. Peter Claver's Hall on last Friday night. Stratton's Orchestra stepped right upon the strains of melodius jazz and all women. Pretty favors were given to the gathering of happy folks. A special dancing number of a snappy and different character was pulled off by Bill Holtman and our own Bill Brown. Our dance was tinged with laughter and fun. Those girls always give dances; they deserve great credit. They have clung together for many years with a great enthusiasm and spirit. Punch and tasty cakes was served and the evening was full of very many hands. We review CINDERELLA INN Say, don't you know— That this little Quaker Town is coming to a wonderful realization? Why, Cinderella Inn has enticed all of better Philadelphia to its haunts. First of all, Charlie Johnson has been with a group of youngsters that are snappy, talented and entertaining.
Mr. Johnson has put a new light on cabaret life in Philadelphia, creating a higher class and more refined type of amusement. So drop in for a review; it really is the last word.

head waiter, Jimmie Tyler. He is perhaps the youngest man in the city holding such a responsible position and it is to be said of him, that he discharges his duties in a very capable manner considering the great responsibility resting on his shoulders.
Having mentioned the executive staff let us pass to the real life of the club, those who actually furnish the entertainment for the members and guests. Kitty Ablannche and Bidd' Foster of Philadelphia, and Raymond Hood of Pittsburgh are the entertainers. Their work is exceptionally good. The two girls team up in a dance number and Hood does the heavy ballad work. The latter also puts some jazzy numbers over in snappy style, he teamed up with a comedian and tenor songster with a good voice. Many will probably remember her Kitty from last year when she entertained at the Capitol. One enjoys seeing her work. The diminutive Biddie (her name is Isabelle) is a new comer, but is rapidly making good. She is what we would call a "neat" worker.
Without music the club would not exist, therefore, too much can not be said in praise of Billy Page and his Broadway Syncopators of Pittsburgh, who play nightly, and for Sunday and holiday matinee dances. Those who have heard them will agree that the, have a wonderful orchestra. Their music is entrenching and exciting, and they house Blues." Often they are forced to play encore after encore just to satisfy the dancers who absolutely refuse to be seated. So they must enjoy the music considerably.
The matinee dances given on Sundays and holidays by the "Matinee Idols" viz. Johnny Powell, J. C. Van Hooke, and Buck Weaver are the largest and most popular in Harlem. Very often there is a special program presenting local talent. These entertainments are generally very interesting and amusing. As we have already mentioned the music at these dances is furnished by Page's Broadway Syncopators. Excellent music and the best dance floor of its kind in this neighborhood are two very good reasons why the "Matinee Idols" pack them in every Sunday and holiday. Something special is due for Friday afternoon, May 30th, another one of those holiday matinees. Eddie Cooper has been with the Idols ever since the summer of 1922 and has shown his ability in assisting them with their entertainments. The entire week of May 26th to June 1st will be one big jubilee-celebration marking the second anniversary of the establishment. There will be sevens and some special attraction each night. Monday night May 26th the Plantation Revue, Tuesday night, May 27th, Ladies Lucky Night, Wednesday night, May 28th Club Alaham Revue, Thursday May 29th Extraordinary professional night, Friday night, May 30th, Princess Helena, the famous Egyptian dancer.
To all appearances this promises to be one of the greatest weeks Harlem has seen in some time. The club is being all dressed up in new colors. Changes are being made with regards to the lighting system. These changes we believe will make a vast improvement in the general appearance of the club. No doubt it will meet the hearty approval of tall who visit there. Blue and gold seems to be the foundation of the new color scheme and it is indeed quite attractive. It is safe to say that we know most of those who visit the club during anniversary jubilee week will not regret it in the least, but on the contrary, will wish every week were anniversary week. We are just that that the staff will provide heaps of fun, and enjoyment all the week.
The Courier wishes Johnny Powell and his co-workers continued success and may the Capitol Palace Club Inc., always be Tip Top place of wholesome amusement where all may go in search of recreation, enjoyment and amusement of the highest order.

BURNT POTATO FUMES FATAL
Carbon monoxide, generated by burning potatoes, was declared by a council's jury to have caused the death of Mrs. Caroline Showmanwon, 73 years old Chicago woman, who was found dead in the kitchen of her home.
Neighbors who discovered the body said a lot of potatoes that had held dry was burning on the stove. At the inquest it was explained ordinarily potatoes in carbonizing, would give off carbon oxide gas but if the oxygen in a tightly closed room had been greatly exhausted, this gas would be charged to carbon monoxide.
The room was tightly closed and it was decided this was what had happened to the aged woman.

Suitor Brands His Initial With Red-Hot Iron on Girl's Forehead
G LEN FALLS, N. Y., May 22-With her beautiful face seared with an iron brand, a perfect letter "P" and an arrow, the former standing two inches high and an inch across, Mrs. Hazel Milner Harris, attractive blonde of 18, came before Justice Willard Robinson at Fort Edward.
In her story Mrs. Harris told of being tied to a tree in a lonely spot on the Champlain Division of the Barge Canal by Floyd Pelitier, who after heating the irons in a small blow of torch applied them to her flesh.
"I was in love with him," she told the court; "so when he asked me to go away with him, I went. My mother nearly tore my clothes off trying to prevent me.
He told me that he was going to mark me so that I would always belong to him. I told him I didn't care. He did it and I suffered terrible agony. There was no need of tying me up but I guess he wanted to make sure.
"That is his initial," she declared pointing, with evident pride to the letter "P" which runs down her forehead to the bridge of her nose. Following the girl's story, Pellitier, who was arrested on committment of the girl's mother, was released by the court.

GALESBURG, Ill., May 22—Surgeons with an X-ray have been following the course a three-inch can opener is taking in the body of Ward Lacy, 4, son of C. R. Lacy of Knoxville.

Woman Alone in Store Routes Three Bandits Who Attempt Holdup
MILWAUKEE, Wis., May 21—Mrs. Jennie Evans, proprietress of a store here, took a desperado armed with a gun and spanked him, when the robber in company with two companions entered her establishment shortly before closing tifine with the usual demand of "money or your life"!
"Where is your money?" asked the robber, pointing the gun at her. "On the counter," she answered quickly thinking out a plan of action. "Just laid it there," she stated further.
The bandit advanced to the counter, putting the gun in his pocket, thinking he had the woman thoroughly cowed.
"I couldn't resist," Mrs. Jennie Evans said afterwards. So I just grabbed him by the collar, turned him over by knee and gave it to him as good as I could with my bare hand. You should have heard him how. The other two ran as if old Nick was after them. When I let the pistol toter free he too, lost no time in getting away. Then the police picked them up and I'm glad of it." The trio of bandits were, Joe Makutz, 16; Bernard Bootan, 15; and Gilbert Sells, 17. They are also charged with robbing a drug store in which venture they relieved the druegist of $27.50.

DANVILLE, VA.
Warm was the welcome the Barraca members of Calvary Baptist S. S. received when they entered the palatial residence of Mr. and Mrs. Marshall Hargraves. 1245 W. Paxon street, as invited guests, for the purpose of holding their monthly class meeting.
President C. Hugo Grasity after prayer by Chaplin C. C. Gill, opened the meeting for business by calling for unfinished work. It resulted in the giving of the report of the anniversary by Vice President G. W. Vincent and Business Manager O. A. Patrick. As the founder of the president, Bro. O. A. Patrick outlined a financial plan for the raising of more funds for the treasure. The plan was adopted and consisted of the appointment of ten captains, each one having a certain amount to collect.
The members present were made to feel exceedingly glad over the return of Mr. Johnson Jackson to the fold.
Mr. Jackson, like the new members, Bros. Burrell and J. C. Foster, spoke with enthusiasm, giving verbal pledges to be with Baracca in heart, spirit and finance.
Vice President G. W. Vincent, occupying the president's chair, called for the annual address of C. H. Grasty.
Mr. Grasty began his efforts by impressing upon his hearers the necessity of co-operation, unity and the bearing of our own burdens without shifting them to others, he assured all that there was work enough for reach and every individual.
The address progressed the speaker became more forceful, laying great stress upon the necessity of accurate and complete statements of all monies received and paid out, all members, their addresses, their financial standing as class members, and all data pertaining to meetings, insisting that these successfully accomplished were some of the paramount reasons for the ambitious achievements of any organization.
He pleaded with the Baraccas, to go forward, telling them that service was needed. He compliments and in sincerity relates the worthy aid given by his followers, who have given new ideas, new zeal and never said no when asked to help. The old veterans of the Baraccas, the young in age, come in for praise. Vice President, G. W. Vincent, never tiring, always ready for service. C. C. Gill, the fat, is not winded and always wining. Our business manager, A. Patrick, who has no equal in ability or service, called the power behind the throne. W. B. Muse, who so scholarly teaches the Baracca every Sunday morning, and Bro. James Stamps never miss sessions, are ardent workers.
At the finish it was the uni-amic opinion that the all-inspiring address had the desired effect upon the listeners. It was appealing for its frankness, effective because of its eloquence. It included a clean, definite and ambitious program for the future. Mr. President, we are with you.
Sunt. Broadnax at the request of Vice President Vincent responded very fittingly.
After a most tasteful repast, the Baraccas left at an early hour for their homes.
Spelling of the repast, Bro. Vincent in thanking the host and hostess voiced the sentiments of all when he said he was ready to come again.
"Watch for an evening with Baracca."

United States will pay to its soldiers a boon for fighting for their own country dear. These men have been told, by their country and its security is not sufficient.

No business house of increasing its overhead expenses as less.

The United States will pay to its soldiers a bonus, and thus reward them for fighting for their own country during the recent World War. These men have been told, by the senatorial vote, that one's country and its security is not sufficient reward for a soldier. The American soldiers have been told by the vote of Congress, that they are worth just so much cash to their country. They are forbidden forever from estimating their worth in terms of patriotism. Patriotism has been sold on the auction block of commercialism, and the Congress approved the sale.
We cannot agree with those senators and representatives who voted for the bonus out of fear of their political future. We cannot agree that an increase of the national debt of about twenty per cent just to appease a political organization is either good politics for congressmen, or a very commendable piece of business for the government. No business house in America would think of increasing its overhead expenses at a dead loss to the business. By the cowardly action of Congress, this country is going in debt to satisfy the few politicians who very evidently prefer to see patriotism commercialized than take chances on being defeated at the next election. The conduct of a few senators is quite as cowardly. Senator Lodge of Massachusetts voted to over-ride the President's veto. His vote is simply another way of saying that he is mindful of the narrow margin with which he took his seat the last time. Senator Curtis of Kansas was expected to be stronger, but he faltered. Senator Willis was thought a stronger man, but his thoughts were very evidently all of the next election.
This country voted to throw out of Washington the whole Democratic Government as it operated under Mr. Wilson. The change was made because this country wanted a reduction in the cost of living. This country still cries for a reduction. Everywhere we hear of the Republican promises to reduce, but no reductions are being made. President Coolidge had this party promise in mind when he vetoed the bonus bill. He had the people in mind. But the Congress—it had its membership in mind. The people are for a reduction in costs, and they are not willing to see themselves taxed just because a few congressmen are afraid of the American Legion as a political factor in this country. They played very poor politics.

Pittsburgh has resolved to provide a hospital for the treatment of children. The pleasing feature of the whole program is the absence of any qualifications to be met by any child before treatment is given. All children are to be recipients of this wonderful blessing provided out of the hearts and souls of the people of Pittsburgh.
We are quite sure there is a great deal of good in the world, in spite of the presence of so much that is bad. The spirit of those who seek the funds to provide the Hospital for Children has assumed very high ground. No denominational lines, no lines of race or color are to be tolerated in the administration of aid and cure to the little ones whose early condition in life may be corrected by medical and surgical treatment. This is the spirit that will wipe out wars; it will make laws less necessary, and it will raise the social order of the entire world; and make humanity secure.
The Pittsburgh Courier recommends to every reader the cause of the little children of today and of tomorrow. There is granted no immunity from disease germs, afflictions, deformities and child ailments. All alike are subject to those human ills so common to us all. Let us give as largely as possible to the children of today, and thus lessen the possibility of a weaker nation tomorrow.

Pittsburgh, like other large cities, has its quota of almost every kind of law violators. While the officers of the law watch for the safety of citizens, professional thieves, clothed in garments indicating charity and bearing certificates of "authority to solicit" operate in almost every section of the city. The latest attack upon these "solicitors" indicates that they are a very dangerous crowd of thieves.
The credulous public needs some protection from people who move from door to door asking aid for this or that. We are promised to give something rather than waste time trying to question the solicitors who are prepared to "cover up" their cause with phrases and data sufficient to convince the average person of the merits of the cause, as well as the sincerity of the solicitor.
It is almost beyond belief that people would dare dress themselves in uniform labelled as the garb of some charitable society, and go about among the people soliciting funds under such false pretenses. The raids of the police department indicate that Pittsburgh has a thoroughly organized band of "beggars" who are more nearly thieves than anything else. If these people are found to be the criminals they are reported to be—and the reports are based upon long investigation—there should be no leniency shown. They should be imprisoned for their own criminal acts, and the terms of imprisonment should be sufficient to serve notice upon all other kinds of "fake solicitors." Stelling in the name of charity ought to be made a very hazardous business for anyone attempting it.

Senator Underwood can well afford to declare his Klan. He is a formidable candidate for the nominating Democratic National Convention, which soon met New York City. His early stand against the Klan will bring to be imagined by his party leaders if the Klan issue at the convention. No party can afford to can as a recognized unit of party strength. The Klan may be absorbed or excluded. It has no power as a factor. To do so will open the attack, and make possible an open religious and race country.
Senator Underwood is right. We hope his part as he.

tion, the most consistent newspaper of the South, and we commend both Mr. Underwood and the Atlanta Constitution for the service they have rendered the United States in particular and the world generally. We refer to the very manly stetements made by Senator Oscar Underwood regarding the Ku Klux Klan.
The words of this stalwart Kentuckian cannot be denied. He is right, and his words carry power and conviction. Nothing is more true than his statement: "You can not mix Americanism and the Ku Klux Klan." This is known by the steady men and women of this nation. The saving influences of this nation are not going to stand aside and see the Klan disrupt government by the people through party machinery. The history this government has made, with all its faults, is secure in the hands of the present and coming generations.
Senator Underwood can well afford to declare himself on the Klan. He is a formidable candidate for the nomination at the Democratic National Convention, which soon meets in New York City. His early stand against the Klan will leave nothing to be imagined by his party leaders if the Klan becomes an issue at the convention. No party can afford to carry the Klan as a recognized unit of party strength. The Klan must either be absorbed or excluded. It has no power as a factor; it cannot be accepted as a factor. To do so will open the country to attack, and make possible an open religious and race war in this country.
Senator Underwood is right. We hope his party is as wise as he.

One thing is certain: We shall see the politicians swarm as never before. There are about seven gentlemen of leisure whose names could be called now with mathematical accuracy. They will be there to impress the credulous with the importance of being a "leader." We will see any number of "leaders" in Cleveland. They will be leaders who are on the pay-roll of some unit of the party, from a real position down to a lackey for some white man who likes to have it said that he has a "darkey to take care of." It seems to be a fancy for some white men to have a "darkey" along at the convention. At almost every turn these "darkies" can be seen loaded with badges, canes, a lot of papers and some "inside dope" on the next nominee. They usually know the senator by his first name, and they can tell every move the party has made for the past thirty years, and they can "get it fixed" for any one who cannot get a seat in the convention. These "leaders" will be holding meetings in some place where the gullible Negro will go and listen to a lot of rot issued for the benefit of the race.

All this has to be done to "earn the money" some of the gentlemen will get for keeping certain "delegates in line" for the nominee. That "keeping 'em in line" stuff is always worth a few thousand dollars around a convention. It was worth big money in 1920 at Chicago. It will not be worth so much money at Cleveland, but the promoters of the "keep 'em in line" program will be busy as usual just to keep "the organization" in good running order for the coming years. As these "leaders" swarm in Cleveland let no one be deceived. They have their reward, already. They always get their reward in advance. The poor "race" in whose name they get their reward is used for the purpose of collecting, and nothing more.

Raicial Co-Operation.
Winston Salem, N. C.,
May 14th, 1924.
Editor the Pitcher's Corner
Editor the Pittsburgh Courier:
Permit me through the column of your paper to call your readers' attention, especially citizens of this city, to the wonderful display of racial co-operation as exhibited by the best of our race.
Sometimes ago a nifty theatrical deal was put through between colored and white, and fortunately for us colored one, resulting in two fine colored theatres owned, controlled and patronized by our people. The white man who lost in this deal disappeared for the time only to reappear with modern ammunitions plus the eraction of defeat, renewed vigor. The majority calls it a strike back. Lebus see.
He has re-entered the very heart of our industry with that modern formula in mind, to say "put." He has built one of the finest theatres for Negroes in any part of the United States. And colored news have it to say that he is directly responsible for incorporating with that theatre an office-building with all modern conveniences. Alright. Across the street is a first-class office building owned and controlled by Negroes. The office building is designed with all respects, except a few ideas here and elsewhere which would lead a more modern touch to it. This office building was occupied by the majority of Negro professional men in this city and also a well established and beautiful drug store. Good.
Here comes racial co-operation and its discussion. The meaning of this term as the writer sees it is: Sleep Negro, eat Negro and patronize Negro if it hurts. The cream of racial co-operation is sacrifice, unless sacrifice is embodied within it, it loses its sweet sweetness. Therefore, when it reaches perfection and that perfection is saturated with sacrifice it is satisfying and a pleasure and a regular "sweetie' to enjoy.
It's no guess as to just where the receipts for rent and theatre intake go. We are dealing with a white man and as typical of his race he firmly believes in white racial cooperation. In the face of this simple reasoning the racial co-operation embedded with the minds of those who formerly occupied the Negro building varies inversely.
They have all willingly migrated from under the roof of the Negro building to the white building, under the fictitious excuse of modern convenience. The writer for the present shall not answer this fictitious excuse. He is waiting to hear from the parties concerned either through the columns of the newspapers or orate at any public gathering. For from these men shall not only brand their arms, but force the writer to use the most vicious modern weapon of warfare, propaganda. The writer feels that the industry of the race in this community is attacked and is
THE-DIGEST

SHORTLY after the Washington Conference in 1921 Astride Briand dropped from the political horizon and Raymond Poincare rose to power in France. Poincare immediately sent French troops into the Ruhr industrial region and announced to all the world that they would stay there until Germany paid. Then, two and a half years later, along came Charley Dawes, American financial expert, who investigated Germany and found that she could pay. Poincare was against the Dawes report. It repudiated his policy of executing the Versailles Treaty by force. But the French people, although they hated Germany none the less, loved the Dawes plan more, hence they voted for a change in the personnel of their government, which would substitute liberalism for militarism and imperialism.
MacDonald of England is gratified at the new turn of affairs in France. The effects of the reorganization are helpfully felt in Belgium and Italy. America is proud because it was her native son that brought order out of chaos. The former allies in war are now on the road that leads to comradish in peace.
France did not turn Poincare out because of a weak policy. It turned him out because of a rather too strong, too exacting policy. He upheld French rights with a vengeance. His acts were devoid of the milk of human kindness. The new government will doubtless get the same results that Poincare was after, but it will of necessity be more tactful and discreet:
ON LAST December 6 President Coolidge said: "I do not favor the granting of a bonus." Last week, when vetoing H. R. 7959, a bill "to provide adjusted compensation for veterans of the World War and for other purposes," he said: "America entered the World War with a higher purpose than to secure material gain. Not greed, but duty, was the impelling motive. Our veterans as a whole responded to that motive. They are not asking as a whole, they do not want as a whole, any more recompense. We must either abandon our theory of patriotism or abandon this bill."
Again Coolidge is right. But aside from the moral and patriotic factors involved, to pay a bonus at this time would mean repudiation of the Mellon tax plan, which the people unquestionably want and demand. Relief from the burden of excess taxes is what the country needs, yet a clique seems bent on forcing the bonus over the President's veto. The 68th session has come near enough being wasted already, without passing a bonus that will kill its last chance to enact a piece of constructive legislation, whose benefit will be nationwide in its scope.
MAY 9 marked the 124th anniversary of the birth of John Brown. A party of sixty persons motored to North Elba, N. Y., to pay honor to his memory and advocate the erecting a monument to commemorate his services toward emancipation. The John Brown Memorial Association of Philadelphia, headed by Dr. John Max Barber, is the organization that has initiated the worthy undertaking.
Nearly 65 years ago John Brown was hanged for his part in the slave insurrection at Harper's Ferry. He was hanged by the slave power of the South. Today the thing that he fought to end is all but forgotten, so long has it been destroyed. For that reason, he was given credit for having opened the fight that freed the he deserves an imperishable monument at the hands of grateful freedmen.
AUTHENTIC HISTORY OF THE KU KLUX KLAN,
1865-1877, by Susan Lawrence Davis. Member of
the New York Chapter, United Daughters of the
Confederacy. The American Library Service, Publ-
ishers, 500 Fifth avenue, New York. 316 Pages.
Price $3.50.
IN AN advertisement of this book are prominently
played these lines: "Do you know that Judah P.
Benjamin, a Jew, was among the first to help the
Ku Klux Klan financially? Do you know Father Abram
Joseph Ryan, a Catholic priest, was the first chaplain-
in-chief of 'de Invisible Empire'? After
reading carefully these 316 pages we can
only say on behalf of the lines above that Jews and
Catholics will not find anything to their interest or
credit on reading Miss Davis" "authentic" history.
It is no use to argue with Southerners of the Old
School about their lost cause. They can see only one
side of the question, and that side is their side—the
wrong side. It seems never to appear to them why
they lost—that they were in the wrong.
Susan Lawrence Davis, the author, is a daughter of one of those old school Southerners. She was born and brought up down in Alabama. She was taught to cherish what her father had fought for (and lost) in the Civil War, and naturally, in writing of him and his associates and comrades, she is passionately in favor of everything they did. In war they wore the gray; in peace they wore the pillow case and nightshirt. One wearies of her repetition about "stainless virtue," "noble ideals" and "lofty character." If her subjects had been such great and good men the story of their activities would have been different.
The book is a tribute to the memory of the Reconstruction Ku Klux; a record (gathered largely from the participants themselves) of how they started, what they did, when they disbanded, where and why. It is a tale unworthy of the telling, but worthy of being read because of the information it gives about a crucial period in the history of the country.
The Ku Klux held sway 12 years. Their ideas and ideals hold forth to this day. It is a part of our daily life to combat these ideas and ideals. For that reason we condemn the story of the Klansmen, but urge prepared to rally in defense of that attack.

I like to read The Courier. I learn more from this paper than all the dailies I read. There are hundreds of thousands who do not know the progress of the race. It would be a great encouragement to the colored race to read such a paper as The Courier.

ITS DONE at last. Engene O'Neill's "A Chillun Chillun Wings" has been praised. A woman has kissed the hand of a Negro in making scene on the public stage.
As stated before our objection to Mr. O'Neill is not based on the fact that a white woman Negro play opposite each other as soon as that in this particular play the white woman lowest possible type, who goes into the white Negro, and the Negro depicted is the highest bodying (other than his affinity for the white the noblest aspirations of our case.
Mr. O'Neill continues to insist that he plays sents only the lives of two people, one be white, and a woman, and the other a man. He says that the fact that the woman sane and her black husband remain talks after she has become less than a black on the street, is, even in the final analysis, not of two characters of a different race.
As charitable as we are is required to be in the and as lenient in judgment as we think we first word on this unusual demand is first, the play degrades the entire Negro eyes of white people, because they are the best Negroes crave white women and it is not true to life third. It teaches us no impression that justifies its production that forced production will do more than one spite of, but because of the fact that a woman was found who was broad and liberal enough in the part opposite a Negro.
AT LOUISVILLE last week the A.M. met and elected three new wearing babbed hair, and holding church office, and breaking "the Negro must stop so much accompanying bling and do something for New York." A bit of work, but on the holied hat and dress part of their program they are likely strong opposition. Yet, certainly sparing ing, the preachers are right. Joumal hair and less dresses both tipify "sinaa" and is not at a premium in church life for Solid, serious and pious women are wanted in spiritual teachings, and the "mournful" short of these requirements. Oil fabrics not be popular any more, but true fabrics actor and bearing is most dependable and most —because it is most rare.

Most of us have been taught to believe that it is a hell. When asked for proof we point to the But pointing to the Bible is not in style as when ministers get where they can dispute the word of the Scriptures, what can be exceeded men?
Yet there is a certain abiding faith that forsake true believers. Were it not for that our theory of the hereafter would collapse and would be small comfort in struggling to obey commandments.
Whether there is a hell or not is not for us. We accept without question the teachings of the writ. If the holy writ is in error we are ignoring the fact and hope to blissfully remain.

BY SANCTION OF LAW, by Joshua Henry James J. Brimmer Company, publishers, Boston, $4.99 Price $2.00.
IN THIS novel the author has made a special for an understanding of Northern New South. The book deals with the case has no other book since Harriet Decree Saxon Tom's Cabin. It is very powerful and foretends. Other writers have discussed the pro and con, but none have more beautiful description, picturesque characters, interesting plot, charming situations this subject to the public readers.
The story is both fascinating and horrific are court scenes, college halls, police violence. All are centered around a Laramie young white Southern woman of a poor family, and Truman Dennett, a cultured man, whom she met while attending college in chursettes.
Without a doubt, By Sacrifice of Law is the novel ever written by an American Newman one of the outstanding novels of the past in behalf of a benigned person an innocent law-abiding citizen everywhere. "There are laws of right and wrong out and laid down to direct our lives by Christ and His life; others by whom we are for humanity. By way of law let us these are the words of the author in lips of Father Burtin, the white man in the marriage of Lida Lauriston and Teresa proceeded to lend his influence to our er, Elvin Lauriston. "Love ye man in Love is markkind's best creation and most powerful friend. Hatred is the most enemy. Let this reach your heart, it is the most tiful and most enlightened form of self-protection. It was that which made it to save the world." Reviewed for The Digest by Lila May Barrongan College, Baltimore, Md.
