When an epidemic of smallpox swept the Leeward Islands Dr. Jones used wholesale vaccination to check the disease—a plan introduced in North Carolina several years ago by Dr. W. S. Rankin of the State Board of Health, which was a departure from isolating patients and those exposed to smallpox. Dr. Jones' method was so successful as

Resignation of Women Employes Discloses Alleged Difficulties—Marks End of Long Struggle
Financial depression is alleged to have driven the Pittsburgh Branch of the Urban League to the wall of despair and defeat under the present management, according to prevalent rumors following the resignation of two members of the staff last week.
Mrs. Margaret Mann, for several years connected with the Branch, will take up special work with the Duquesne Steel Works, it is said, and Miss Grace Lowndes, whose work in the Morals Court has won national at-

tention, has served her connection with the League, it is reported. Three months delinquency in salary is reported as the alleged cause of the two important officeholders finding it necessary to give up the work which they so ardously endeavored to make successful. It is said that the management has been unable to pay the salaries of the workers, and that these have have made themient and failure in the management. That Executive Secretary John T. Clark has been busy raising his salary, which is $250 per month it is said, and the salaries of the employees, almost to the exclusion of furthering the work of the branch, it is reported.

Says Pretty African Girls Practiced Latest Fashions Over 30 Years Ago Relates Experiences.
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 4—The flapper, 1924 model, learned a lot about herself from Colonel I. Allison, the head of the school. She learned that the origin of her species hails from black Zululand. Also she learned that the fobles she cherishes as being ultra-bobbed hair, short skirts and carefree attitude—were practiced by the young girls in darkest Africa thirty-three years ago. Colonel Smith told the flapper about herself in a lecture at Memorial Auditorium. North Broad street and Fairmount avenue. He described his "Thirty Years Among African Natives." He was sent to Zululand in charge of a band of five missionaries in 1890, and he found these many black women have only recently become the vogue in civilized America. But not all. "I gave a large, fine looking Zulu woman, sixty years of age, a dress," he said. "Her waist was large, so
League marks the end of a long struggle to maintain in the community. Just why the much—needed social organization has been unable t. function here where social work is so much in demand, is the subject of more conjecture. It is generally admitted that the largest support the branch has received has been from white friends, and that the masses of colored people have never been supported.
Many reasons have been advanced for the allege condition: Some attribute it to the fact that the main work of t'e league has been confined to too small a circle, while others say the branch has not acquainted the public with is "real" work. Still another cause for the indifference of many, was the placement of the executive secretary's wife, Mrs. Patricia Kearney, at the office of the office. At the time of her appointment is reported that Mr. Clark had promised another young woman he would use his influence in her behalf.
Organized in 1918
Since the organization of the League in 1918, many white friends have given generous support, among them Mr. Walter A. May. The Urban League has branches in Columbus, Ohio, New York, Philadelphia, Newark N. J., Detroit, Brooklyn, St. Louis Nashville, Memphis, Atlanta, Cleveland, Boston, Chicago, Milwaukee, Springfield, Mass, East St. Louis, Mo, and Kansas City, Mo. They do a big work under the Superintendent of, Mr. Eugene Knickle Jones of New York.
Bearing out the report that the League is in dire need, a number of women are soliciting the populace for funds. They are frank in saying that unless the people respond freely, the local branch may close.

the waist band was too small. She tied the waist band about her neck, which made the bottom of her skirt and just above her knees. So you see how wrong the people are who think the short skirt mode came from Paris. It was started in Zululand. "I knew one man," he said, "who had forty-two wives. He had 172 children."
When a Zulu woman marries, Colonel Smith said, she shaves the front and back of her head and puts a large marriage ring around the middle of the hair remaining. This heinous hairstyle and trained to stand upward, and red hair and pig fat is rubbed in it. It is "done up" only twice a year. Previous to his address on South Africa, Colonel Smith lauded prohibition.
"It is making a clear-thinking, sober man of the American," he said, and if Europe expects to keep pace economically with this land she will have to pass similar laws," the missionary prophecled a great African nation on the region of the Cape of Good Hope. He said: "It used to be the British were British; the Boers were Boors. Now that has passed and all are aiming at being good Africanders."

"They'll Have To Pay," Says Owner of Home
Refuses to Move From Home Following Threats and Bombardment by K. K. K.
NEW YORK, Sept. 4. "My neighbors have their prejudices against us. All right, let them have their prejudices, but I am going to make them pay for them." This was the answer of Samuel A. Browne, a mail carrier, in answer to a fusillade of bricks, which broke the windows and the plate glass in the front door of his home on Fairview avenue, West New Brighton, last week. The stoning followed a thunderous scream as Mr. Hintu to leave there and signed "K. K. K." Police are guarding the home.
Browne, who with his wife, a teacher in Public School No. 11, Dover High School No. 1, and his wife, an eminent live in the center of the white residential district recently developed under the name of Castle-House as his most charming in the neighborhood and consists of eight rooms on two floors with all modern improvements.
Browne, who purchased his home for $8,500 on Feb. 2, was immediately besieged with offers to sell. He told real estate dealers that he could sell—but that his price was $1,000. Since then, he has received the tempting letters, signed "K. K. K." utterly to intimate him, and force him to sell at a price lower than his original demand.

Telegrams From Head of National League and Commissioners of Eastern Body Indicate Is About to Be Buried.
A Negro World Series between the winners of the National Negro League and the winners of the Mutual Association of Eastern Colored Baseball Clubs is not only a possibility, but a probability. Definite word to this effect was wired into this office Monday, when, following the insistent demands of the public and the pressure brought to bear by the sport writers connected with The Pittsburgh Courier, a practical agreement was reached, with the understanding that Judge Landis, High Com-
missioner of Organized baseball, would once and for all times settle the intersectional baseball problem which has proven a bone of contention between the East and the West for the past two years.
Andrew "Rube" Foster, president of the Negro National League, and owner and manager of the American League, has worked with which his military object, apparently was a three-game series, with the Homestead Grays, he dropped into the Courier office, and okayed the news story, which, it is believed, will bring the warring factions, together. As soon as the opening gun was fired by Foster, The Pittsburgh Courier urged a reply from Edward Bolden, chairman of the Mutual Association of Eastern Colleges Baseball Clubs, in the Hilderbranders in the Eastern League and one of the principals involved in the war which has caused the open breach between the East and the West. Bolden's reply follows:
Will Not Stop World Series
"If the proposed World Series between colored clubs of the East and West does not materialize in 1924, you may put it down that it will not be due to any obstacle placed in the way by me," quoted the leader of the Hilldale team. "As has been my policy during the fifteen years that I have guided the Philadelphia team and been identified with the game. I feel that the fans must be considered at all times, and-now, as never before, is there a clamor for a meeting between the winners of the East and West. I am confident delving into the past and airing matters in which the public is little interested, will never be the means of solving the baseball situation among colored baseball clubs. Many conditions that now exist must be eradicated and a pact effected between the East and West before colored baseball may be rightfully termed a staple business enterprise.
Why New Leagues Was Formed
"The formation of the Eastern Colored League, in which I took an active part, was for the express purpose of assuring the fans along the Atlantic Coast of better baseball. Not claiming an overnight triumph or attempting to convince that the league has been perfected, the fact remains that the six clubs that formed the circuit in 1923 went through
having any form of discrimination as their aim, were condemned in resolutions adopted by the convention.
The convention made the election of Carter unanimous. The delegate to the convention poll, I. Be Reid, was instructed to place the name of Carter before the convention and work for his election. This was done.

the entire season and voted to increase the league to an eight-body for the present year. Anxiety to please the fans in the respective cities urged each owner to get a club that would stand up, accordingly the Eastern owners went far in search of talent that would appease the local community.
Bolden Will Waive $1,000
"The play question, however, was not the seat of the trouble between the Hilldale Club and the Negro National League, but the fact that our deposit of good faith to the amount of one thousand dollars has been retained by the Western body since we resigned from the Western League in 1922. This matter, of course, did not set well with our organization and hitherto we are not in any mood to compromise. However, the matter, when compared to public opinion, is very trivial, and I personally, as far removed from standing in the way of popular sentiment. If any club in the Eastern Circuit has an axe to grind, it is ours. There is a possibility that we may not win the Eastern champion. We have the best of my stand in the matter of a World Series. You may put it down that I am willing on the actions of our commission and the advances from the West. The East will concede to the wishes of the fans."
Commission Agrees
Immediately following this statement, came another from the commissioners which read in part follows:
"Since public sentiment has urged the playing of a World Series between the winners of the East and the West, the commissioners discussed the matter facing the to know how they feel about the situation. To begin with, the series can be played as far as the East is concerned, providing it is run on a popular basis, by which the clubs that are runners-up will share the melon as well as the pennant winners in both leagues. The present method pursued by the heads of the Western body in circulating ceaseless propaganda and attempting to win the Himalayas in the closet, will never bring the desired results. The East is mindful, of its duty to the public and awaiting business advances from the West."

The only harmless way to bleach the skin white is to mix the juice of two lemons with three ounces of Orchard White, which any druggist will supply for a few cents. Shake well in a bottle, and you have a whole quarter-pint of the most wonderful skin whitener, softener and beautifier.
Massage this sweetly fragrant lemon bleach into the face, neck, arms and hands. It can not irritate. Famous stage beauties use it to bring that clear, youthful skin and rosy-white complexion. You must mix this remarkable lotion yourself. It can not be bought ready to use because it acts best immediately after it is prepared.

Restraining Order Against Church In Indiana Dissolved Wife's Lover Is Killed By Irate Hubby
SOUTH BEND, Ind., Sept. 4.—(By the Associated Negro Press)—The restraining order issued against the First A. M. E. Zion Church here against continued construction of its new $30,000 building at the corner of Eddy street and Campau boulevard, was dissolved in a hearing held before Judge Bingham of the Superior Court Friday morning. The order had been issued originally on protests of whites, who claimed that the properties adjacent were being injured by the excavations made for the church structure. Attorneys for the defendants represented that the action of the whites was inspired by prejudice against Negroes who have been moving into the section. It was said that Harry Taylor, candidate for prosecuting attorney, backed by the Ku Klux Klan, was prominent among those opposing the building of the church.
The pastor of the church is the Rev. B. F. Gordon, who has led the first among colored people to purchase better homes. He was represented by the law firm of Wills and Carter, which has been active in supporting interests of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in this city.

NORFOLK, Va., Sept. 4—Frank Overton, 214 Effingham St. Porto mouth, stabbed John Arrington of Glosgow street, to death in a scuffle between the two men Thursday night. Overton immmediately surrendered himself to the police.
The trouble between Arrington and Overton, according to intimations made in a statement given by the latter at his preliminary hearing in Police Court Tuesday morning, grew out of a domestic triangle. For about two months Overton had been estranged from his wife, Mrs. Ardilas Overton, and had been living apart from her. He claims that she took the initiative in the separation by leaving his home without his knowledge while he was at work in the Navy Yard, taking with her most of her personal belongings.
On the night of the tragedy, the husband, who had intended to attend a social, refrained from doing so, he alleleges, because of the fact that he believed his wife might construe his actions as being those of a spy. On his way home, he met his wife and her escort walking down the street.
The husband alleges that the man attacked him, with a stick—and that he stabbed him with a pocket-knife in self defense.
On several occasions during the past six or seven years, he claims, he has warned Arrington to cease paying attention to Mrs. Overton. He states that Arrington was the cause of his domestic troubles, being in a measure responsible for the estrangement between him and his wife.

Belmont Cafe In Atlantic City Raided
ATLANTIC CITY, Sept. 4.—What is said to be the biggest raid ever staged in this city occurred Thursday shortly after midnight when the police swooped down on the Belmont Cafe (black and tan) and took two Chinamen and 68 colored.
Under the direction of Chief of Police Robert Miller, who gave orders to clean the place, arrest every person found there, size all illegal paraphernalia and supplies and destroy what could not be brought to the police headquarters, the police and detectives completely wrecked the interior of the building, leaving nothing, intact but the wall paper.
Two 50-gallon stills, with coils and connections, 23 gallons of alcohol, 10 gallons of synthetic gin, 12 cases of beer, 5 quarts of whisky, 4 gallons of moonshine, about a pound of opium, 4 slot machines, 1 dice game and other paraphernalia were taken to police headquarters.
Pool tables, bars, bar fixtures, crap tables and other furnishings were smashed. Every locked door was broken. Not a movable thing escaped nor did any nook miss the officers. The cleaning of the place was the most complete job of its kind ever carried out in the resort.
The raid was timed when the place was running full blast. The Belmont has run so long without interference a raid was the last thing expected by the proprietor or frequenters.
It took nine trips by the patrol to bring in the prisoners and the materials seized. Bail was set at $50 each for the material witnesses.
Following this raid, the patrol was called to the Tent, another black and tan; where the detectives found three more slot machines. The place at the time was running a so-called "Beauty Ball and Masquerade." Three young colored fellows masquerading in women's clothes and wigs were locked up on charges of disorderly conduct. The costumes effected by these three were striking in color and design.
The black and tan places have been doing big business after the other places in town close. Most are located in the back part of town, and the entertainers sell a lot of off-color stuff.

East-West May Hold World's Series This Fall
titude of the East elicited the following wire:
"Delighted at opportunity for peace. National League will accept agreement as stated. We will meet, agree on the differences and whatever agreed, will have Judge Landis arbitrate each complexing situation, decide its merits, and draft an agreement between the leagues and pledge to accept whatever his decision, will be, or will agree on lines agreeable through compromise between the leagues. This agreement to be used by the league will be played in baseball. Am sending Bolden copy of wire to you. Can represent National League by proxy to expedite matters. World series will be played between winners if acceptable." (Signed) Andrew "Rube" Foster. Judge Landis Willing. Immediately following this telegram, came another wire from Chicago, which read as follows:
"Judge Landis agrees to arbitrate every point in dispute between Eastern League and Negro National for sake of peace and harmony in Negro baseball, which includes Bolden's claim for Thousand Dollars held by Western Association because he kept contract jumpers rather than return them and get him money as agreed when he joined National League. Judge Landis sees no reason why peace should not be restored, for the good of the game, and sees no reason why the winners in Negro Baseball World's Series should not meet winners in regular World's Series if the public demands same. Western fans want to see Hildale and Kansas City meet this year and other clubs play Western teams. Western league is willing to let East Coast contact ammunition held by providing some agreement of protection to both teams can be signed for future. Landis is willing to draw up agreements the same as protects National and American League."
Writing on the same question.
Quinney. J. Gilmore of the Kansas
City Monarchs has sent in the

There has been considerable agitation on the part of the baseball fans throughout the country for a series of games to determine the Negro Championship of the World, between the winners of the pennant in the National Negro baseball League and the Eastern League.

Miss Bennett, who is only twenty-two, has the distinction of being the first Negro graduate from Pratt Institute, Brooklyn, from the Normal Arts course.
lyn, from the Normal Arts course,
the only course in the school which
gives a certified diploma. She is at
present a student at Columbia University
for her Bachelor of Science degree,
and last winter taught poster
design and interior decoration at the
Y. W. C. A. in Harlem at 179 W.
137th street.
Born in Gldings, Texas, Miss Bennett has the greater part of her childhood in Harrisburg, Pa., where she secured most of her elementary training. She has lived in Brooklyn for six years with her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Joshua R. Bennett. She is a secretary and journalist for the Rho chapter, New York City, of the Delta Sigma Theta society, and a member of theriters Guild, and organization of the younger Negro writer. She is a frequent contributor to verse to such magazines as The Crisis, Opportunity, and the Messenger, and has done illustration work for the Messenger and two covers for The Crisis.
While a student at the Girls High School, Brooklyn, Miss Bennett was the first and only colored member of the Dramatic and Fulter Literary societies. In her senior year, she won first prize in a poster competition held by the Tuberculosis Association of greater New York. The pos- general hesitancy on the part of the management of the two prospective winners to issue a challenge for such a series. There seems to be a disagreement between the owners of both leagues which I hope will be for the benefit of the game and the fans in general—will not interfere with such an event.
On behalf of the Kansas City Monarchs, winners of the 1923 pennant and the prospect winner of the 1924 pennant the National Negro League. I hereby issue a challenge to the winner of the Eastern League pennant for a series of games to determine the Negro World's Championship.
This series to be arranged by a commission representing both Leagues and to be carried out under the same plans as the-World's Series between the National and American Leagues. Respectfully. (Signed) Q. J. Gilmore, Sec'y. QJG-AK Kansas City Monarchs

HAMPTON, Va., Sept. 4--Among the outstanding accomplishments of the past year by the National Medical Association made known to the delegates attending the annual convention, which is in session here this week—was the final success which owned the efforts of their committee to operate with the Veterans' Bureau in the manning of the United States Veteran's Hospital No. 91, at Tuskegee, Alabama.
Especial praise was accorded to Dr. Michael O. Dumas, president-elect of the association, a prominent physician of Washington, D.C., and a member of the Board of Trustees of Howard University, to whose indefatigable efforts the successful result is most largely attributed. He and the other, members of the committee, including Dr. J. O. W. George, Dr. J. O. W. G. George, and Dr. A. M. Curtis, it was reported, unintendedly of their time and energy to securing the result they feel means so much to the colored people of the United States.
The correspondence which is sub-
joined indicates definitely that the
colored people are indebted to Dr.
Dumas and the National Medical
Association for the splendid results
which have finally come out of the
hospital situation at Tuskegee:
Dr. Dumas' Letter
July 25, 1924.
Gen. Frank T. Hines,
U.S. Veterans' Bureau,
Washington, D. C.
My dear, Gen. Hines—On behalf of the National Medical Association I desire to thank you for the final consummation of our cherished hope in the fulfillment of the promise to our people. We are truly grateful that out of a most chaotic situation has come an area of good feeling and understanding.
We appreciate very highly the opportunity afforded us to co-operate with you in the selection of a personnel for U. S. Veterans' Hospital to have always endeavored to place our best available men for the various positions. We shall be glad to further co-operate with you until the full staff is recruited.
In closing, I wish to assure you that you have won the everlasting good will of a grateful people.
Very truly yours.
(Sheryl) Michel O. Dumas.

Dr. Michel O. Dumas,
1817, 13th Street, N. W.

VISITORS' BALL
By Thelma L. Ree
at some time or another there comes to each man's heart a desire that desire prompted by some good feeling which comes from within, when fulfilled makes its all happier and little better for having done something. Pittsburghers there is that feeling—how well it was expressed at the visitors' Bell. The folks of the "old home town" were really there to
make us all welcome and to show our visiting friends what Pittsburgh hospitality and friendship means. The visitors to our smoky city included the country's fairest. From all parts of the good old U. S. A. they have come and we welcome them with outstretched arms.
Perhaps our most distinguished guest was Miss Florence Cole-Talam With her charming smile and glorious smile she is sure to capture a place in one's heart. Lovely indeed was she in her gown of beaded tunic New Jersey, comes the charming guests of Mra. George Gould. They are Miss McDonald, successful in musical lines and Dr. Wright, a brilliant young grouper in a frock of spangled tunic over chiffon with blue tulle bows at each side. Fitting indeed was it that she should win in acclaimed the most beautifully dressed lady at the ball.
From Dayton, Ohio comes Mrs. and Mrs. Thomas Norris. Mrs. Norris was charming in a gown of green beaded crepe; Mrs. Esther Howe, of Dayton, looked lovely in her frock of green georgette. Mrs. Robert Moor, an elderly matron of Bellaire, Ohio, looked quite stately in her frock of orchid crepe. The men added dignity to the scene by appearing in evening dress. Mrs. Alexander Vaughn, of East Liverpool, Ohio, was indeed lovely in a gown of apple red crepe. Mrs. Mills, a dashing young matron, was quite charming in her frock of yellow beaded crepe. "Tom Columbus, Ohio, comes little Mr. Chanceler, a pretty sub-deb. Miss Chanceler was quaint in a frock of ponders blue georgette with tight fitting bodice. Among our fair ladies were Mrs. George Gould in an elaborate gown of spangled jet crepe, Mrs. Ann L. in rose-beaded crepe; Mrs. Arthur Morris in fame velved. Miss Augusta Dickerson in rose-beaded crepe. From Baltimore comes Mrs. Gould Hughes, who was lovely in a gown of beaded white crepe. Mrs. James Brown, of Fairmont, looks charming in a gown of yellow pleated crepe with face.
Perhaps the most unique scene of the evening was the grappid march. The stately men in evening dress escorting his fair partner down the floor made a lovely sight. The gowns were indeed gorgeous and each was well made. We might have wished to have had several prizes to give to our fair friends who looked so well. But there was only one—to Miss McDonald, of Newark, came the honor and truly she deserved it. With a dignified step, a courtly manner and an elegant pose, Miss McDonald looked confident and her own charming, graceful of manner — this is Miss McDonald.
We were also given an opportunity to witness some graceful waltzing. Glancing here and there we added the touch of the strains to the strains of that heavenly music—that of Depphe's orchestra. Lovely indeed were the various couples as they gracefully swayed with the rythm of the music. Miss Daisy Murphy and her dances well. Miss Martin prefer not to wear any nose. Maybe they do that in New York, but. Pitt-burgh has not gotten the far. You can wear a dress that awarded the prize for the most graceful waltzing. To our own Mr. Sell Hall and his charming partner from New York, we award the prize. Pounder and theirs. Their's is truly the beautiful aesthetic type of dancing.

Dainty Tea Room Opens In East End Drug Store
Colorful, picturesque. Bohemian, all this and more can be rightfully applied to the Blue Bird Tea Room, which was recently opened in the Lincoln Drug Store; 6266 Frankstown avenue, East End, to supply the East Libertyites with a much needed place to obtain a light lunch or refreshments after attending the services at their favorite church, or after the show or dance.
Much credit is due the managers, Mr. Donald Jefferson and Mr. Wilson Primas, for the artistic way in which this petite tea room has been arranged with the decorated, and this, together with the continuous music and the best of the continuous cooking makes it undoubtedly the best and ideal place to go when you are desirous of spending a quiet hour or two mild bohemian atmosphere.
The management cordially invites you to inspect their newly opened cafeteria at your convenience.

The guests were limited to the members of the families and the immediate friends. A wedding breakfast followed the ceremonies and covers were lald for thirty five.
Mr. and Mrs. Simms left on the 9:50 B. & O. for Atlantic City and Washington. They will reside for a time on their return, in the home of the bride's parents.
An attempt to raise silver foxes in mountain altitudes is now being made in France. Hitherto it was assumed that skins of the finest texture, worth more than their weight in gold, could be grown only in northern latitudes, where the winters are not only very cold but very long. The French National Society of Acclimation has established a silver fox farm in the French Alps on the theory that the temperatures there would be just as suitable as those of northern Canada. An announcement states that preliminary results are satisfactory.

Visitors' Ball Scores Triumph
By Dorothea L. Mandexter
By Dorothea L. Mandexter
Duquesne Garden was the scene, Tuesday evening, of the most brilliant social event sponsored by Pittsburghers this season. Society was all ago with excitement and enthusiasm at this most unique and spectacular event with its $25 cash gold prize for the most handsomely gowned woman and $15 gold prize for the best waltzing couple. Everyone was full of the spirit of revelry and frolic. Hosts of Pittsburgh's younger set were enlisted for all the fun. The clothes, the smiles, the laughter, the dancing was all fairy-like under the influence of Deppe's artists in smocks of blue and green. Beads, feathers, georgette and chiffon were the favorites for milady's evening gowns.
Have you ever bent over and looked into a glass case which contains beautiful prize butterflies of pale, soft delicate rose, green, blue and yellow, deep gorgeous reds, greens, blues and gold? Then you know just how the exquisitely gowned women appeal in Grand Parade with their escort! A maze of color, but each gown a separate and distinct work of art in creation and vogue.
The grand march was led by the most Exalted Ruler, J. Finley Wilson, slowly up and down the length of the hall four times. Then various competing couples took several turns around the hall and at a given signal stopped and remained quite still while the judges made mental reservation and calculations and literally "pick their victims". There was little deliberation. Each judge pointed out his choice to Attorney Vann who escorted them to a central location in the hall. Enthusiasm ran high. For a moment of suspense there was silence then hilarious whistling and shouts filled the hall.
Among the judges' choice were Mme. Florence Cole-Talbert who had just come in flushed and happy from a triumphant evening at the Tabernacle. She was carrying beautiful roses which blended with the rose georgette of her gown and her smile was as dazzling as the panels of silver white iridescent beading worn over the rose georgette. Miss Cecelia Chancellor, a charming deb from Columbus, was led blushingly forward in a lovely bounty gown of copenhagen blue chiffon. Many of the contestants declined to give their names but their gowns were exquisite. One of peach trimmed in white curled estrich plumes, two heavily beaded georgettes and two yellow canton crepes extravagantly beaded in white and silver. But was still another, a delightful musician, Miss Alice McDonald, guest of Mrs. Mary Gould, and shall I tell you of her? Her gown was a sheen of silver white iridescent beading with the faintest tinges of rose and blue and green. At each side hung a beautiful tulle bow which was certainly reflected sky blue. She wore silver pumps and hosiery and a diamond tira in her hair. A most elaborate translucent creation and winner of $25 in gold!
Just as "chief judge" Van rendered his decision and the house was in its height of gayety, a something new and unexpected arrested our attention, and like the fickle crowd of old, we ceased our cheering and

all turned to the new diversion—a veritable flame, a woman who entered in the most brilliant shimmering spangle beaded gown of red, with a shoulder strap of silver and one of red, with red slippers and—no stockings! Of course she came from New York! but who was she? From whence had she come just now? Why hadn't she been in the Grand Parade? were some of the questions of eager onlookers. But she and her partner entered the prize Waltz, even were included among the three couples who contested in the final elimination. She is Miss Daisy Martin of New York, maker of records and a wonderful waltzer, but she didn't win. Perhaps it was because she had on no stockings, but I rather think Mr. Sell Tall of Pittsburgh and his partner was the best waltzing couple. Anyhow the judges awarded them the prize of $15 in gold.

ATHLETICS THE WORLD OVER
WILLS CONFIDENT, BUT NOT BOASTFUL, AS BIG FIGHT LOOM
HARRY HAS NO PLAN OF BATTLE TO OFFER AGAINST LUIS FIRPO
Depends Solely Upon Weakness of Opponent-"Panther," Unhindered By Crowds, and With His Wife as Chief Aid, Getting Into Fine Condition.
BY ALEX MacLEAN
SOUTHAMPTON, L. I., Sept. 4—Harry Wills refuses to predict a victory over Firpo. It isn't that Harry's afraid. He's just not expressing himself.
This may, or may not mean something. I seem to remember that Harry once told a Boston Post reporter that if he couldn't let the reporter sit at the ringside and call his shot for him when Firpo came tearing in—if he couldn't change whatever he had planned to do, shift to the reporter's order, beat Firpo to the punch and knock him dead, that he would buy the reporter the best suit of clothes in Boston.
That conversation was held at North Adams a year or so ago when Wills was up there shaping himself for one of the many houts with Dempsey that never did materialize. Wills Just Honing.
Now Wills says he's not promising a thing, but to do the best he can. He gives you the impression of believing that his best will be more than enough, but he won't formulate that sentiment into words. Wills says he can't tell you what he will do nor how he will do it. He never has any preconceived battle plans, he says. He simply goes into the ring prepared for anything and then develops. If the situation calls for cleaning, he boxes. If it seems more advisable to wade in and mix it, he wades in and swings from the floor. "Machines do the same thing over and over the same way," he says. "I'm no machine. I have no set pattern for performance. I get into shape for any sort of fight. That is never hard for me, for I am a clean man. I work on the road to improve my skills, but to improve my distrust judgement, forming partners to open up to improve my endurance, and then I enter the ring.
"I'll give Firpo the best fight I can. I am sure I shall be in condition to my best, and I'll have no apologies to make when it is over." That's the way Harry talks, and it bounds good. Cockiness, even much of it, is a good sign in a kid fighter, but for an old campaigner like Wills to go and wont do to a man sounds a lot less sensible than the former line of his about knocking Firpo out, according to order or buying suits of clothes for his admiring friends. Unkindered by Crowds. The Wills layout works according to schedule and the schedule is good. The actual living quarters it six miles, from a telephone. Unlike Firpo, who pitched his camp in a spot where he would take in the news here to get away from the crowd and to work unkindered by the curious.
His wife an excellent woman, is in personal charge of his kitchen and his care. The only other occupants of the place are his two sparring partners. Each day's work is plotted out and everything goes according to schedule. If Wills were only younger, and if he had only been active in the ring and if the big question mark about his hands were really wiped out, he would be the safest bet in the world.

Jack, the Dempsey, will be at the ring-side to get an eyeful and in the victor he will glimpse one of the most dangerous contenders, for his Crown. And the victor will be entitled to first crack at the hero of the Wills-Firpo embrogio three nights later.
To coax Renault into the square, ring with Godfrey is costing Taylor and Gunnis a chip basket, full of dollars but the demon promoters stand to make it back at the gate. This is considered the feature bill of a notable season<sup>4</sup> of ring attractions here.

Give Flower
Victory Ove
ATLANTA, Ga., Sept. 4 — Walk Miller, who has developed Tiger Flowers, Georgia middleweight, into the sensation of the modern day ring and a fighter far superior to Champion Harry Greb, will give that fighter $5,000 if he will meet the "tiger" of decision which comes. Miller's exceptional offer comes as the aftermath of the recent no-decision fight between Flowers and Greb at Fremont, Ohio, in which the "Tiger" was declared by the sport writers covering the fistic affair as the well-deserved winner.
The Pittsburgh sport editors covering the fight caused to have the new published that Tiger was the most popular of the fights written for Fremont. Toledo Chicago, and Grand Rapids, Mich., papers by veteran authorities conceded Flowers the laurels of the winner by a wide margin.

GETS HIS CHANCE
was regarding how many of the rounds the Georgina battler won. Some of the scribes said seven. Others allowed that he took six, but they all agreed that he gave Greb his pasting and made him look foolish. Greb admitted after the fight to Eddie Dickerson, that Flowers had given him his hardest fight and that he would outpoint Jack Dempsey if they were matched. This is virtually an admission from Greb himself that was the loser. Georgina Dick Mead, both veteran sporting writers of Toledo, gave the fight to Flowers by a margin so big that there was no room for doubt. Monroe Glatz, Fremont sport writer, did likewise and a poll of the fans taken by an internist party as the fans passed out of the arena showed ten fans, with nine for Flowers and one for a draw.

Like the white man, the "brother" is beginning to see the folly of falling out about things that concern his financial well being. 1924 has not been a very fat year for either East or West; and the possibilities of an interesting World's Series, with its attendant "Strong Box", possibly distributed as is the other big series, seems to have proven too big a plum. An interesting build to the series is that without taking the occasion to throw, either bricks bark or bouquets at Foster and Bolden, nothing should stand in the way of the coming of the Dove of Peace, but we fear the appeal to Judge Landis to handle the situation might complex matters. The questions involved need more reason than law.
If the series is conducted along intelligent lines and entirely out of the hands of both leagues, as it should be, with the selection of umpires and general management free from the influences of both Bolden and Foster, the reason for the decision is that the question is what in the "dumps" and the reason is plain that some of the methods and policies of the ones that owe most to the game have not only been inconsistent and decidedly selfish, but quite a number of the cards have been

It would be a hard thing to say that sport writers on the Pittsburgh Gazette Times and the Pittsburgh Post are on Red Mason's payroll, or that either of the boxing editors have so very much love for Harry Greb, but it does seem strange that the so-called experts should see things, at such a time as the wormning Pittsburgh papers gave "Harry Greb all the best of the fight" with Floweries to Tolley Dayton, and in fact most Ohio papers gave the decision unquestionably to Flowers. None of the outside papers could see Greb better than a draw.

SaitchIsAgainCrowne N. Y. Champion; Mi Channels Retains
NEW YORK, Sept. 4 — The New York, State Tennis Tournament just ended did not measure up to championship dimensions in any sense of the word and was disappointing in some respects. The absence of a number of favorites was to a large extent responsible for this. Among those most notably absent were the New National champion, Tally Holmes, and his double's partner, Ted Thompson, both of Washington, D.C., John Wilkinson, Dr. Rhetta, Dr. McGriff, Dr. Downing, Reckling and such women players as Miss Nicholson, Miss Redcliff, Miss Ballard and the ladies from the "Mosquito State." Mrs. Burnett, Mrs. Thomhill, Miss Marcellus, Miss Vaughn and a few others, all right, are named absent, it can easily be seen that there was a dire lack of competition.
From the start it was clear that the finals in the men's singles would be between young Woolridge of Washington and the youthful Ayrens Saitch of New-York. The presence of Miss Isadore Channels, three-time National champion, added quite a little interest in the ladies' singles, being the New York. First visit to New York. There were many who wanted to see her in action. Miss Channels had little; trouble in reaching the semifinals, where she met Mrs. Elsie Conick, of New York, who has fought through many crusades, and has a, creditable reputation back of her. Mrs. Conick went through to the semi-finals with as much ease as did Miss Channels, and remembering the stubborn opposition the New York champions had put up in the finals, the interesting match was anticipated, but the Westerners disposed of Mrs. Conick in two straight sets.
In the lower, bracket many old rivals met, and Mrs. Madison, after playing a good game against Mrs. Seames of Chicago fell a victim to Mrs. Leonard's soft returns. Mrs. Leonard, in turn, was put on by her doubles partner. Mrs. Wade. Interest in the men's singles was centered in the lower, bracket, where young Jones of New Rochelle had to meet Wooldridge, who, in turn, met George Smith, resulting in both cases caused each comment and not little disfraction. This, and other like happenings of the tournament, will be treated in a future article.
The outstanding feature of this Tournament was without doubt the splendid showing of Mrs. Seames of Chicago and Miss Blanche Winston of Washington, Atlantic City and New York. Mrs. Seames is the old player in the game today (56 years) and in the game today (56 years) Winston who is making her first bow in tournament competition. This team instantly won its way in the hearts of New Yorkers and without doubt the most popular team in the city. Meeting Miss Channels and Miss Junior of Philadelphia, after this team had dis- and doubt the most combination of Conick and Madick was thought that the former team was easily, but New York had not seen Miss Winston's best and her best was not long in making itself.
The team of Leonard and Wade, winners of over half dozen titles, had absolutely no trouble in getting to the finals.
The Finals—subhead
The Junior finals took place early so as to dispose of any interference with the senior events. This match was between Sonnie Jones of New Rochelle and Wooldridge of Washington. This match was not as interesting as was anticipated, Wooldridge seemed to be the Indian sign on Jones since the previous encounter. The score was 9-3, 6-2. Miss Channels got right down business in the ladies' singles and soon disposed of Mrs. Wade for the fourth consecutive year, annotating thereby the New York State title and showing unquestionable sur

On Labor Day, the Duquesne A. C. met in a brace of games, and Hall's club took both ends of the bargain matrience, triumphed 11-5 and 6-1.

The next pitch scheduled men's singles is E. Saitch of the New York Yankees and Wooldridge of the Washington Nationals. Wooldridge is on early first set and is commanding the consecutive sets. This is a good gift him, as he is well-developed shortly after the first of the second. The man only warming up this time is Wooldridge at an all-time numerous centers. The taken by the New York case at 0:06, he will thus recover the title he year to E. G. Brown.

Mrs. Wade and she took the lend and the score four to one. After writing more games, the latter team set at 6-0. The New York four the first. The second four their favor, here is where she began, in Mrs. Leeward. Leeward ed-back to the barely closed ball that barely closed it and consistently a fast of Mrs. Leeward and another like speed to Mrs. Wade was game. The enthythmia the crowd so encouraged theors that they brought the bat and soon had at four. Then they stage this stage on and finally 8-6, the New Yorkers winning crowd was so pleased with the play that Martin called for cheerers for Mrs. Seames and used to send her a present own account. Score 6-3, 8-5.
In passing, we want to state there is no woman in the day with a first ball like Mrs. Stonts. She does not use the fast ball, nor serve personally, but it can also be said, that she is good a player as there is a ganie and with the experience in this, her first tournament, should cause Mrs. Chase book her innings in the next seasons.
The Men's Doubles were over for Saitch and Smith Goines and Stephens, 69, 64. The Mixed Doubles, first set which Mrs. Wash Saitch took off 7-5 became a stone Comedy when the triet tried to play in the dark. They are finally the gane of the Mixed Doubles champion will not be awarded this year.

The reason for their enthusiasm and diligence may be seen on the Ashby street side of the new athletic field in the shape of a rapidly forming covered grandstand. The season tickets are being sold and an immediate collection of construction. This grandstand will fulfill a long felt need at Morehouse College.
Further, the students and players are happy to know that Prof. D. T. Harvey, for eight years director of athletics and 'coach, will again be on the job, assisted by Prof. C. E. Warner. The aspirants for the team who are in the city for the summer, begin this week to work out Monday, Wednesday and Friday afternoon at 5:30 p.m. M. letters have having attended to all the old men having schedules, and adressing them to begin at once training, with reference to diet, hours smoking, etc.

I accerted at the last business of the American Tennis nation that Brown, National Champion for "22—23, was used for alleged "articles" written in papers.
I accerted a letter to down ordering him to appear in the military Committee to instructions before he will be held. I will never consent to such position is the consensus of Brown's friends.

PHILADELPHIA; Pa., Sept. 4

The Pennsylvania railroad has assured Victory that they will furnish all extra sections of traina necessary.
Almost two trains have been sold out; one as the Victory Special and the other as the Liquid Special. Tickets will be good on either train. Quite a crowd from Monument Lodge of Elks, Baltimore, are coming up to join the delegation. Requests for tickets to Reading, Wilmington, Pittsburgh, Washington, Atlantic City and as far south as Atlanta and Savannah, Ga., and Jacksonville, Fla. Over 100 plainclothesmen and special officers of the railroad will be on hand to protect the travelers.
"Firpo Doomed," Says Wealthy Arkansan, Looking Pair Over
"Firpo Doomed," Says Wealthy Arkansan, Looking Pair Over
CHICAGO, Ill; Sept. 4—A. N. P.-John C. Claybrook, one of the richest Negroes in Arkansas, one who had a town after this week, dropped through town this week with a word: Harry Wills. Claybrook thinks Harry is going to knock the Argentinian floeey. He isactic in his dental that his confidence in Wills is based on the fact that Wills is a Negro, but avers that the entire matter is a business proposition with him, and that, after a visit to both camps, he can't see. Luis.
Mr. Claybrook drops a whispered word on that Bartley Madden affair. He doesn't say that Wills told him so, but he gives it as his honest opinion that Wills fought under instructions. In the first place, the Arkansas Croesus explains, Harry and Bartley are personal friends. In the second at the time of the fight, Firpo hadn't been up and there would be small chance of getting him to if Harry had made mincement out of the tough Irishman. Take it for what it's worth. John C. Claybrook thinks it's worth all he can spare.

Changes in Coaches May Help Grid Sport
GINCINNATI, O., Sept. 4 — (A.N. P.—Several changes have been made in the coaching department of the larger colored colleges or institutions for the fall.
In the Middle West two changes of importance have taken place. Harry Jefferson, who gave Wilberforce a successful team last season, resigned. His successor is Harry Graves, who coached Virginia Normal last season. Duvalie Evans, for many years successful coach, Kentucky Noxmal, has resigned and R. A. Keen, a product of Flake university, has been appointed for the big job.
Hambulin will be at the helm at West Virginia Collegiate Institute. He is the oldest football coach in the Middle West, having been actively engaged in the sport for over four decades. H. Errish, Jr., who has successed in Simmons University, will again be in charge at the Louisville Institute.
In the South, Abbott will again be head coach at Tuskegee, Alken at Atlanta, Harvey at Morehouse, Johnson at Clark Kindle at Tallahassee, Inge at Jackson, will return to Howard, Smith at Hampton, Young at Lincoln, Parker at St. Paul and Taylor, former Virginia Union and Northwestern star, will coach for his first time at Virginia Normal.

New York 'Y' Girls Make Good Showing In Swimming Meet
NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 4—A. N. P.—At a swimming meet held on Lake Tiorati, among /the_various summer camps, white and colored, the Fern Rock Camp of colored Y. W. C. A. girls participated in the annual events. A white camp won the cup with 22 points, and Fern Rock was second with 21 points, just one point behind. But some claim that Fern Rock was counted out, inasmuch as one of the white girls was allowed to take part on four events, when the rules limit every contestant to only three. That he have given Fern Rock six or eight men. Of the 21 points awarded to Fern Rock, ten were made by Ruby Annie Pickens, 13 years old, who took first place in two events, and three points were made by Harriet Ida Pickens, who took second place in one event of the older girls.

Eastern Snapshots
THE TIME HAS COME TO TALK—OF CABBAGES AND KINGS. gentle reader, that we would call Fipc a cabbage or Willa a king, but merely a prelude. With the battle less than a week distant we are expected to give some opinion as to the outcome. We have parked the w. k. "pride of race" outside whits we meditate.
There is absolutely nothing impressive about the record of Luis Angel Firpo. Jess Willard is the only fighter of note whom he has conquered. Before Jack Dempsey he was a weakling save for that one lucky panch. He was game, but he had not the stamina to "take it." By that we mean that he could not weather the storm of blows and stick around like B. Madden, Esq. does. By our faith, his-right is a shillahch and his left a padded brick. But—
He hath not the skill to land either punch with great frequency or telling effect. He knows that a clever opponent must be killed off at once and so he rushes in with flashing fists, hopeful that the little gods who dwell in the pampas grass will favor his attack. He leaves himself wide open and—
Wills dons on those big birds who come in wide open. Here is a man who is a skillful boxer, who changes direction and pace with the speed of a woman altering her mind. Harry has a six-inch uppercut which was invented for TALL men. It will just fit lie Bull and when it nests against his jaw something must go. He will be hitting UP at his vital and thus Wills will be able to give him the full message from home. Little men have caused Wills more trouble than the big boys.
The Brown Panther's hands are sound and no brittle bone will be truant to its trust on Thursday. Madden gave those brittles a thorough test a few months since.
Our say-say is—WILLS WILL WIN BY A K. O. IN SIX ROUNDS.
HOT DOGS CUMMINGS BLEW HIMSELF TO A RECORD last week when he hit safety in his fifteenth successive game. Our heavy-footed friend is a better workman than a whole lot of alleged-ball players in the Eastern League.
THE STATE BOXING COMMISSION CONTINUES TO IMPROVE its regulations. Sitting in Erie last week the body decided that all boxers matched to compete in this state cannot take part in any contest five days prior to their scheduled bout in Pennsylvania. This rule was passed away by the Boston Sikl and other boxers who failed their cancellation of bouts here and caused losses to promoters. In addition all boxers carried for main bouts will be required to post a forfeit either in cash or a certified check with the promoters of the show not less than five days prior to the proposed match.
CAMPBELL, A NIFTY TWIRLER WITH D. McCLELLAN this year, has been signed up by Hilldale and is taking a regular turn on the peak. He looks like the goods. Nick Carter is also steadily improving.
JOHNNY MOSELEY, ANOTHER PRIDE OF CHESTER, and Sailor Fredman fought a slam-bang eight-round battle to a newspaper draw at the Shore last week. It was the Sailor's skill, and defense plitted against Johnny's aggressiveness and slashing attack. Each man was credited with four rounds.
DEHART HUBBARD IS ENTERED in the A. A. U. championships at Newark this week. He is headlined on all the advertising of the games.
WE DO NOT PROFESS TO KNOW WHY CANON CHASE is so anxious to have Scorner Firpo deported, but we do know that his charges are not helping the Argentinian mental attitude these days. If the purists are aiming to stop the fight they are getting off on the wrong foot, Mr. Rickard is getting some free advertising and Mr. Wills is getting some benefit as well. Worry does not help any boxing man and the phlematic Bull is bound to suffer a bit of torment.
These days Luis is studying, round by round, press reports of the fights in which Harry Wilts has participated. He commits to memory one round of a Wills' bout and then boxes Wilts' shadow. Sometimes he calls in BEM while he will box. Meanwhile Harry has reached his fighting form and is confining himself to road work in order to keep from going stale. In a few days he will resume boxing with Jeff Clarke, the Joplin Ghost, and Battleting Owens.
WE HAVE A COMUNIQUE FROM J. HENNERY LLOYD, advising us to change his address to Havann, Cuba, after October 1. John states that he has signed up for the season with the Winter League and is taking Richard Lundy, Rats Henderson, Crush Holloway and Wade Johnston with him.
HILDLEA PLAYS BUT EIGHT LEAGUE GAMES during September and by the time this screed is perused they will have knocked off half of those. White teams to appear at the Darby ball yard within the next few weeks will be York, Chester and the Paterson Bilk Sox.
THE EASTERN BASEBALL WORLD FACES TWO BIG CHANGES NEXT SEASON. Dame Rumor (as the sob sisters would say) is planning a comeback for Connor in New York and a young manager is going west to manage a new team in Indianapolis. Yes, yes.
TAKING THIS SHOT WITHOUT THE EDITORIAL "WE"—If those Hilldale PLAYERS who criticize me in absentee for the things I say are not satisfied with my opinions they might, at least, come to the press box and tell me what they think. Or I shall answer any communications which they will send in the mails. Or I'll come down to the dugout if invited. No umpire, no player, no magnate is above criticism and while this column functions it reserves the right to level the rays of Truth at all things, animate and inanimate.
ALLENTOWN JOEY GANS WON A POOR FIGHT from Kid Smith of New York at the Allentown Fair Grounds last week. Each made a bum showing.
JOSE LOMBARDO, OF THAT DEAR PANAMA, SHOWED PHILLY PANS why John, the Dindee, wanted none of his game. The shifty little man made a chopping block of Al Gordon at Shetline Park and established himself as a prime favorite with the Quaker City bugs, who are the fairest fight followers in the world. He is a two-fisted fighter who lacks only a k. o. punch to be a champion.
TAYLOR AND GUNNIS, SECOND ONLY TO TEX EICKARD as fight impressarios, announce that Manassa Jack and his cologized manager will look in the Godfrey-Renault walks at Baker Bowl on Monday night. Dempsey wants some first-hand info on the big boys and he will give this pair the oh-oh before going on to Thirty Acres.
We just have to make another, prediction this week and it is that Georges, the Gorger, will hand Redcoat Jack a neat and gaudy liking with perhaps a sleeping notion for zood measure.
Other killers will swing into action when George Chanx tangles with Dana Foster. Pete Sarmiento clashes with Joe Lynch and Benny Bass at Al Markle.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 4.—Big Nip Winters and Inverts script Lee 'proved to be stumbling blocks for Eddie Douglas and his Imperial Giants from the Flatbush section of Great New York, the Saturday bargain matinee being grabbed by the pennant mad Philadelphiaians at Big Nip Winters and Inverts using first game 4 to getting a 7 to 1, three in the sunset.
Southpaw Pud Flournoy was the Glanta' choice for mound duty and the erstwhile Hildale finger gave a good exhibition except for the fact that he made a couple of the too good for Winters and Biaz Mackey, with the result that Winters drove one out of 'the park for the first score of the game in the third inning and Mackey duplicated the performance with a four-ply smash in the eighth frame. All of the Hill-turned fighter gathered single while the Glanta' on the seventh over in the seventh on Jule Thomas' walk, Cason's single and Hill's double.
In the second encounter Captain Warfield and his-pals socked the offerings of Cyclone Joe Williams for 15 base hits. Lee Aiding his own cause by gathering two hits that scored Lewis twice.

outstanding interest will be the meeting of De'Mart Hubbard, University of Michigan's star athlete and American broad-jumping champion, and Robert LeGendre. The latter was supposed to have broken the world broad-jump record. Ned Goldinidin the pentathlon event at the Olympic games with a leap of 25 feet, 6 inches, only to have it later recorded that the leap was 24 feet, 6 inches, instead. Hubbard, according to reports, is in fine fettle for the contest with LeGendre and has high hopes of being returned a winner. LeGendre is the crowning success of his career would be a decisive win over the western kangaroo.

Practice Partiality At Black Sox Park Is Bitter Charge
BALTIMORE, Md., Sept. 4 — A storm of protest and indignation has been heaped on the heads of the management of the Baltimore Black Sox, because of their refusal to permit Negro ball clubs to use the local park, during the time when the Blacks were on the ground.
In commenting on the conditions, one fan wrote as follows: "stuff being pulled, as we have to support colored baseball, because of the fact that no whites care to mix with our people in Baltimore."

regarded as eminently qualified to fill the position of position given him. Matthews is statesmanlike in handling political matters.

This is a highly essential quality in political leadership—the interests of the people, as well as the party and the individual. With the appointment of Matthews, an entire readjustment of political activities is made. He works in the campaign in which young, men and new blood are to be given equal opportunity with the experienced campaigns of the past.

Down to Brass Tacks The Republican National Committee is down to brass tacks in the matter of dealing with the racial votes of the country. They are not endeavoring to fool themselves or any one else into the belief that the votes of Colored America will rush up to the poles without an understanding and vote the Republican candidate. The Republican is sensible and practical basis that colored voters must be given good and sufficient reasons as all other voters why they should support the Republican party. This manner of dealing with the voters will, in itself, have a direct appeal. It shows the type of recognition that colored citizens have in the type being accorded by other parties, including the Democrats and Progressives.
More than in any previous campaign in the history of the country the other parties are appealing to the colored voter. The leaders of the Republican cause, from Matthews down to the humblest, are-recognizing this fact and telling it to Chairman Butler and all of those associated with him. "Laying all the cards on the table is the sensible way of going after votes and saving interests of the party," says Matthews. According to information coming from the Republican National Committee headquarters in Chicago, September 22nd will be turned into a national holiday of observing the preliminary emancipation proclamation, at which time celebrations will be held, and prominent speakers will be in all of the principal cities of the country.
No Stone Marks Grave Of Col. Charles Young
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 4.—(Special) One year ago 30,000 people stood in the streets of Washington and 20,000 more followed the flag dragged casket of Colonel Chas. Young as it was born on a caisson from Union Station to its final resting in Washington Cemetery. Colonel Young was installed at West Point, was the highest ranking colored officer in the U. S. Army and the first of the race ever to reach the rank of colonel. General Pershing and many other military commanders had spoken of him as an excellent soldier. He was a hero of the race and regarded by many as a martyr due to fact, that he was disqualified from the Army. That he was disqualified one felt he should have been placed in command of one of the colored regiments which went overseas.
Colonel Young died in Sierra Leone, West Africa, while on a scouting expedition in connection with his services as American military advisor to the Liberian government. His body was brought home by special steamer and Arlington Cemetery said it was the largest individual funeral ever held there.
No Stone Marks Grave
Today the grave, unmarked except for a wooden slab, can be seen on Arlington hill overlooking the Potomac river, and facing the homestead of Frederick Douglass in Anacostia. Many persons believe that some imposing stone had been erected to mark the spot.

Eight Tongues Are Spoken By This Pullman Porter
PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 4: — In this age of crass commercialism, when nearly everybody takes bookkeeping and commercial geography when he goes to school, and nobody ever thinks of studying the classies. Julius Caesar would have a hard time finding anybody to talk to him in his native tongue. He'd be able to converse with a few priests, a rapidly diminishing number of college professors—and "Jeff" Langston, a pullman porter who plies his trade between Philadelphia and Erie.
Jeff, who is known as Jeffrey Beulah Langston, harmonist and inventor, when he isn't portering, doesn't limit himself to Latin. He speaks Spanish, Italian, German, French and two or three other languages. Rumanian holds no terrors for him, nor do the Scandinavian tongues. In addition to these languages, in which he can converse fluently, he can extract the kernel of thought from half of dozen more.
when he might be revolving in the odes of Horace, is simply that he likes-his work. If his word is to be taken as truth, even the immortals would become cloying as a regular diet, and one day with them out of every three is quite enough.
The third and last reason why he keeps on wearing the white coat of his occupation is that his extraordinary knowledge of music and his
"A person who can't talk in at least four languages," he declares, "just can't talk."
Jeff's knowledge or these tongues has been the result of years of study. Long ago he aspired to be a doctor, and commenced the necessary studies.
But he soon found out that his wasn't a flair for cutting people up. Every time he ran across a queer word, he got sidetracked on its syniax, or got burried in some foreign language dictionary, much to the detriment of his anatomy, and that would-be doctors have to study.
And he had always been interested in music, too; he had always craved to tickle the ivories. So, after a short time, he gave up his doctor's study and settled down to learn language and music. He went to the M. L. Quinn Conservatory, Boston, to study and fortune. Later he went to the Wilcox School of Harmony and Composition in New York, where he received a teacher's certificated.
But after he had finished his musical education, he felt the urge to travel. In 1000 he became a Pullman porter and started out to see the country. He's been as it ever since, seeing chiefly the country between here and Eric. Jeff was asked why he didn't quit the portering business art. he had seen his fill of this particular narrow strip of Pennsylvania, and tie up permanently with the more aesthetic things of life. Wouldn't he prefer long days spent with Aristotle with Boltzmann and long nights with Bach? Behind him. But that's just where the rub comes. The reason he stayed in the portering business while nine or ten muses were beckoning to him is the same reason college professors dabble in real estate on the side. The muses of art and literature aren't interested in such things as daily bread.
But portering only means work two days out of every three. And on the third day Jeff is to be found at his home, 4722 Girard avenue, idly caressing the keyboard, or teaching some little colored, boy the rudiments of piano playing; He has invented and published a simplified method of piano notation, a method which a number of prominent musicians have declared does away with number of lessons of learning all the different scales.
"This book," as he says, "must be pretty good, because they liked it down in Washington and let me copyright it." Anyway, the book, together with a simple chart which shows his method, is to be found in any well-stocked music store.
Another reason why Jeff continues to make up berths and rustle ice water for traveling spinsters,

when he might be revolving in the odes of Horace, is simply that he likes his work. If his word is to be taken as truth, even the immortals would become regular and day with then, out of every three is quite enough.
The third and last reason why he keeps on wearing the white coat of his occupation is that his extraordinary knowledge of music and his ability to talk with travelers, no matter where they hail from, plays a more important part in his occupation than one would suspect. If he had gone into the grocery business, for instance, his ability to converse in Swedish wouldn't have been of any particular use.
In this business, however, it is different. If a gentleman from Sweden enters his car it is invariably a source of great satisfaction to be called in the morning in Swedish. Or if the great Paderewski were to find himself in Jeff's car, Jeff is there ready to discourse glibly on the intricacies of harmony and counterpoint. And all this counts, Jeff declares, when tipping time comes around.

CHAPTER VI
BTH schools had now settled down to the routine of book he for the winter when an event at the college-and at the school told of the re-occurrence of the col-
sitation was fast becoming awkward when the young woman who spoke first added:
"Miss Lauriston is new here. I'm sure you've never met—She's here at Miss Gregory's for the first year."
Bennet inwardly thanked the speaker for the words. It gave him opportunity to recover somewhat. Lida was still silent.
Bound copies "By Sanction of Leda" may be secured from the publisher, the B. J. Bramer Co., 384 Boylton street, Boston, from Hayes Book Store, 3640 State Street, Chicago, Ill., Variety Book Shop, 1102 U Street.
love, Girl of Mine," Bennet, who pered.
"Oh, but, Truman—"
"Say that again, please," Bennet interrupted, "it sounded so charming coming from your lips."
"It's my mother's ring, Trueman and I'd like to have you wear it. Jr for me."
"I also have my mother's wedding."
"He's one of our heroes, Miss Lauriston," Dean Sandager offered. "One of our athletes." "Oh!" was all she could gasp before Dean Sandager continued. "He's one of us this year, because of a incident. He was hit by strikers and got hurt. You are member seeing the stories in the papers. They say he heuesed some girls too. Never got the straight of it."
Bennet never would talk of it and
never identified him, or the
girl.
He was resting his hand fondly on Bennet's shoulder as he spoke. The latter was embarrassed to perspiration. Ida was too overcome to say anything of what she might and as conversation lagged, Dean Sandager turned to Bennet, with "Get the ladies some refreshments, Bennet." Glad of an excuse Bennet turned and was off to do the errand after learning the desires of those in group Lida, the senior best attendant. Bennet as he passed behind a grouping of fernery and palms into the refreshment room. On returning all sought seats about the room. Neither Lida nor Bennet was aware of the manner in which they became paired as they thought of the event afterward, but when they started for the side of the room they found themselves together. Bennet's heart was pounding a tattoo agamit his coat. He looked helplessly at those on his side. Lida, too, was still embarrassed. He took not seats, enough for them all together Lida and Bennet being in the rear were left without.
"All right, sir," he answered; then turned toward one of the adjoining rooms. As they started to enter Lida still embarrassed and, feeling that her emotions would be disclosed under the light, exclaimed:
"Oh, let's not sit here. Let's walk. I can eat my salad-walking. I'll feel better. Let's don't eat. I don't want to eat." Bennett was of the same mind and taking the plate, she offered placed them on a table, while they continued through the rooms to one unoccupied. Neither of them spoke, each glad to be with the other, yet afraid to trust to their feelings. Bennet remembering the moonlight scene hesitated, not wishing to mind the girl of the circumstances under which they had met if she had forgotten and she remaining silent she say much. She felt, however, she must-thak him. She realized; that it was for her to express thanks for the resue if all the subject was to be mentioned if all. They walked on like two kinkful children. At last Lida determined. With a deep intake of breath she began.
"Mr. Bennett!" She paused to control her emotions, all the little speeches she had planned and rehearsed were forgotten as waves of blushes suffused her face. Bennet waited, himself as little under control as she, happy to be with the girl of whom he had been dreaming constantly and yet dumb for her very presence. At last Lida continued.
"Mr. Bennet—I have long wanted to know you and to thank you for the service done me yesterday."
Bennet longer than takes her tenderly in his arms, he had so often pictured the hope of such a right. He mastered the desire, however, remembering that he had sworn not to let her know he had overheard her vow to moonlight fall night. He waved hand as if to pass the incident lightly with: "Oh, it was a pleasure to serve you. I am glad I help."

When I think of the way you struggled to save us, of the mad mob that was about us, and of your wound—oh, it was cruel—cruel—and to think you did it for two unknown girls."
"Not for two, Miss Lauriston, but for one—for you." This was said in such a solemn tone that the girl, who had been looking off across the wide quadrant of the campus turned quickly to him. There was a sadness in the tone that was convoking. The emotions that surged in both were two strong for utterance. For reply Lida touched his arm with the gentleness of a zephyr. For some reason Bennett was selzed with a feeling of deep depression, as the arm still rested on his sleeve, he said:
"There is one way in which you might please me, Miss Lauriston, and that is by permitting us to know real friendship. I hope I don't ask too much."
Why, I already look on you as my friend and you always will be my friend. I could not be anything less
"Friendship means something deeper to me than the word ordinarily means. Once a friend, always a friend, with me. Friendship means understanding, sympathy understanding of moods generosity of spirit."
"It means all that" and more to me also. Effort; to impart happiness; a sharing of sunshine and clouds of life, loyalty. Those are some of my ideas of friendship and when I say you have my friendship and always will have it those are no idle words." With the words they clasped hands. There was suddenly and unconsciously an upturning of her face toward his which looked down toward her. His arm stole about her and her head drooped in his simplicity of frankness, to his breast while he whispered:
"Heart of Mine; I love you—I love you—I love you and, always, will. That is the friendship I want. I always have since first I saw you and I always will. It is not friendship I want. I want love—I want you. I want you as I have wanted, nothing else in life." His voice trembled with deep emotion which overmastered him.
Iida remained motionless for a few moments filled with happiness and the consciousness of tears filled her. Suddenly she said:
"Mr. Bennet, I am a simple girl. I have not been long out in the world. I don't know the ways of the world. What I said I mean. I have been told that men talk lightly and seldom mean what they say when they talk, love. Your words make me supremely happy for my heart has been yours. Please don't deceive me. I love you as only an honest true-hearted girl can love and I trust you. I hope my trust is not vain. This was said so earnest and honestly Bennet was breathlessly pained. "I suppose it is brazen to be telling you this so frankly, but I was brought up to be truthful and natural. You asked up for my friendship. It is your—my heart is yours—I trust you. If you deceive me I shall die. I know so little of the world and its ways. If you don't really love me, please not deceive me. Take back your words and dough I'll never forget them and will love you for them, I will forgive you and we'll nart friends."
As she concluded she looked up at Bennet's face which was *all* burned to her. There was infinite tenderness written there. Tenderness that was so stprng as to make Lida regret her words. He pressed her head back to where it rested on his breast he said:
w "I know'men, these days, speak lightly of love and pledge themselves without meaning to be serious. I am not of that kind. As I honor my mother so I mean my love to be true, so it shall be true. As we live, and breathe my heart is yours and always will be. My Love, I love you. Let me whisper it again, I love you. Will it?"
and
"If you really love me" the honesty of her heart in her words; "then night is day to me. There is no world but this in which we lie and I. Nothing shall be between us. Nothing can be between us. Where can my heart will be, you are my dreams will attend you."

into the room and exclaimed, "Oh, Iada. I have found you last. You have looked everywhere for you. When she, the recognised Bennet is Liddi's escort a spasm of smaller in combination passed over her face and she turned suddenly back into the great reception room. "Oh!!" was the only word she uttered. When next noted by any of her friends she was bidding them good-bye, her wraps about her and her escort waiting.
The spell under, which Lida and Bennet had been influenced for the while was now broken and they returned to the reception room in time to see Louise departing. Lida started from Bennet's side toward the girl, but before she could reach Louise the latter was halfway down the steps and running for the car which awaitted them.
"Why—why—wh—wh—what's the matter, with Louise?" Lida asked, turning to Bennet. "She never acted like that before."
"I don't know, Bennet replied. "Never mind her, Girl Mine. Your sister she's at the school and perhaps she explain. I'm sure I don't know."
"But that's, so unlike Louise. I can't understand it. I must go home and see what is the trouble."
Lida was not long in preparing for her departure and as she stepped from the reception room to the vestibule and started down the steps toward Bennet she seemed a queen stepping from some previous century and back into life. Bennet noted the lightness of her step and the happy beauty of her face. His entire being thrilled with gladness at the thought of having her love. Bennet ushered her, tenderly into the car and they were off. The distance was so short from college to school that almost before they were seated the automobile in which they were riding drew up at the entrance to the school. They were loath to leave
"Oh, here so soon!" Lida asked.
"Do you regret the shortness of

asked. Truman, again his voice vibrating like some melodic basso string.
I don't want to go in," she confessed. "I wish we might just ride on and on and on into the night and out of it into the daylight and beyond—anywhere, so long as I'm with you."
"That's noble of you, and I love you all the more for it. The stars of this night are my witnesses. I'll ever take care of you so that you ride only in happiness." Bennett pleiged confidently. Youth reckons so little on circumstances and consequence.
At the pledge she touched her head to his breast for an instant, as if silently to drink in the intoxicating experience; "I didn't know love could be so good," she sighed. Her head rested but a moment, however before the driver had dismounted and was opening the door for them to alight. But she lifted her lightly from the car and escorted her up the steps and into the vestibule. There stood a moment in parting embrace.
"I hate to leave you—Don't go, Truman, my love. I wish we might never part. I hate so to let you go. This is the happiest hour of my life. Do you blame me then for wanting to prolong it?" she asked.
"How could I blame the one I love. If parting is painful to you how much more painful must it be to me. I have been heart hungry for love like yours."
"I'll try to be both mother and sweetheart to you, Truman. I must say good night now and yet I hate to. Good night, dear. I hate God's best angel, hard you. As sleep over me tonight I'll whis-Truman, Truman."

"Good night. Heaven has been

gift I shall ever cherish. A gift in

Happy am I!"
"Let's try and temper our happiness; Truetman, so it will last. I want our love to last; not be like the love of so many nowadays; many it is a case of, with the old love, it is a case of, with the new. I could not change that way. One lasting love shall be—Good night, Dear—and may God keep you."
Bennen, as he reviewed the scene walking to his room failed to recall how he reached the street. His happiness was so intoxicating as to have cheated his memory of the moments intervening between his farewell with Lida and his reaching the sidewalk in front of the school. When he found himself, he seemed to be gliding above the sidewalk, and not touching the ground at all. This was the beginning of a happiness that continued until long after the holidays and well into the spring term.

Other folks have had their big days at various parks. We are going to have one for all of our colored people. We have succeeded in many things, but we have never put anything over as a race in this city and vicinity. We have never been in the city for the benefit of the Livingstone Memorial Hospital for our people. The outing will be given in honor of the visiting Odd Fellows and friends September. 9 in Olympia park. The tickets are $1 and one can have $1 worth of fun at the park, but the money is not worth it. Just about every cent of this dollar goes to hospital.
We honestly believe there are 25,000 of our people who can and would like to give $1 for our very own hospital. This means $25,000. For sixteen years we have struggled along to get a hospital going, and some folks have criticized us. We all know our people are not a wealthy people and white people give to us in a small way. The white folks have absolutely no realization of the progress we have made in our business and professional life, of the large number. of University and College men and women among us who get to through college. We had no rich parents to see us over. We had to earn our way.
We are capable of managing our large institution, but we will have to create and force the opportunity. In other words, we have to show them:
You know how welcome we are in white hospitals—we are welcomed and treated like colored people. There is no use deceiving ourselves. We cannot have one of our number graduate in medicine at Pitt. He cannot get the two year apprentices a hospital bill as required by law. Our young women cannot train for nurses, in any hospital here. Do you not think it is about time for us to have our own? Our Y. M. C. A., our Y. W. C. A., our Hospital?
Last winter our hospital board secured the services of an experi- enced campaign director on institutional finance. He is an enthusiast, a Presbyterian and was greatly a Presbyterian and a super- of showing the public-spirited nature of city the wonderful progress our people have made through teams of workers calling for their subscriptions, but he soon learned we did not have the entree to officials and in homes, so the method of procedure had to be rearranged. In the late winter a prominent manufacturer sent for him offering the hospital under the supervision of the university or some white hospital. This could not be done at this time. Then, with our friends stepping aside for the Children's Hospital Campaign it caused some delay, but they never quit. They

have kept their campaign man on the job. He is no quitter and he is to call upon our philanthropic white friends in order to let them have a part in subscribing to this wonderful opportunity. Our general chairman, H. Fred Mercer, is also a Never-Give-Upper. He says, "It has to go through."
Our aim was for $250,000. This would purchase property, fireproof, remodel, equip and build home; for nurses. Our plan now is to start work in October, aiming for $100,000 by that time, and with what money we have, go as far as it will permit. If we can go as far as a hospital for forty beds we will open for business and continue working for enlargement. Our aim now is 25,000 of our colored folks subscribing by the purchase of a $1 ticket, which will give hospital $25,000 from our people. We can do so. We should do it; it us done NOW! Somewhat future would he must subscribe $5,000 soon as we should something. As soon as we show that we can put up $25,000 our white friends will back us to the limit.
The speakers at the opening will be published later with complete list of committees.
Do not delay in mailing your $1.
You can send it to the Courrier and the ticket will be mailed to you. You can call or mail $1 to campaign office, Fullerton street, and Bedford avenue, and ticket will be handed or mailed to the office. You may request to be quickly by mailing your $1 in order to put over our hospital.

Noted Violinist Accepts Position Following Long Series of Conferences.
INSTITUTE, W. Va., Sept 4. — Clarence Cameron White, noted violinist, has accepted work in the department of music of the West Virginia Collegiate Institute; one of the most progressive of the tax supported institutions of the country. Mr. White was born in Clarksville, Tennessee. He was reared and educated at Oberlin, Ohio, where he also received his early musical training at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music. After the completion of his study there he went to Washington, D. C., where he was teacher of the violin in the Washington Conservatory of Music and in the public schools. In 1998 Mr. White went abroad for further studies and was appointed to the pupil of M. Zacharewitsch, the famous Russian violinist; and also a pupil in composition of the late Colledge-Taylor. After three years' study abroad Mr. White returned to America and located in Boston, where he divided his time between teaching, concert work and composition. Popular among his compositions are the "Bandanna Sketches," including "Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen," Lament; On the Bayou, and "White Sugar." For on the river, an amo
The coming of Mr. White to the West Virginia Collegiate Institute is the result of Winter conferences between James S. Lakin, president of the West Virginia State Board of Control; George M. Ford, state superintendent of schools; W. W. Sanders, supervisor of doctoral Davis; M. Dawley, plan, coming out of these conferences, has crystallized to form in connection with the institution in school of music, which will help to preserve the beauty of the Negro's past contribution to musical art and also to awaken and energize possibilities in the Negro's music. To this task Mr. White will lend his efforts in the college of West Virginia.
The student body of Collegegate Institute welcomes the enlarged program of music. The orchestra and band, for which instruments have already been ordered, will be received with much enthusiasm. The faculty of the institution is well known to Mr. White. - He has appeared many clips in concert-before West Virginia audiences.

Still Sets Fire To Home After W. Phila. Shooting
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 4.—The probable shootings of a youth in West Philadelphia led to the discovery of a moonshine still in the alleged assailant's room, which was afire when the police arrived. The victim of the shooting is Rufus Whittle, 19, 817 North 38th street. He is in the Presbyterian Hospital with the chest and left arm. A score of the bulletin endangered by the bullets. Police say Whittle was shot by Fred Adams, 30 years old, a roomer at the 38th street house, who escaped in his bare feet, leaving the still in his room going full blast. It set fire to a tablecloth. Adams was arguing with the landlady, and Whittle resented the disturbance when he reached the house about 10:15 a.m. Whittle called into the house, ordering to stop quarreling. Adams became informed to the porch in his undershirt and bare feet. He whipped out a revolver and began firing at Whittle on the sidewalk.
Adams ran up 38th street and escaped. A bandit-chasing car set out after him, but could not overtake him.
Money Snatcher Caught at Church
PHILADELPHIA, Pa., Sept. 4. — Edward Drabo, who has a store at Eighth street, near Montrose, was standing in front of his store when Frank Davis came up and asked Drabo if he would change a dollar bill.

This was just what Davis was looking for and he snatched the ten dollar bill from Drabo's teeth, doing a marathon up the street. Drabo told policeman Hennessey and Norton. They gave chase and the man ran into a churchyard at Ninth and Catherine streets. After searching around in the darkness, Davis was found calmly smoking a cigarette on the church steps. He brazily denied taking the money and was ordered to take off his shoes, when the two cops did not find the money in his clothes, and in one of his shoes they found the money neatly tucked away.

WILMINGTON, Del., Sept. 4—William Pickson, pickle, of 1120 West street; has been arrested on the charge of rape preferred against him by Rosie Deputy, a 20 year old colored girl who has been employed as a domestic in the Pickson home. The arrest came only after Mr. William E. Gunhy, a prominent citizen, courageously insisted that warrant be issued to the man's arrest. Prior to it, Gunhy's act, police and other officials had refused to disso the warrant when the girl and her mother sought justice, the officials claiming that they were "investigating" the case.
Attacked Girl in the kitchen
According to the young woman's story the attack occurred in the West street house on Sunday evening, Mrs. Pickson and a number of boarders were away at the time and only Pickson himself and the girl were in the house. After first approaching her in the pantry Pickson followed the terrified girl into the kitchen. The girl screamed but the man knocked her down with a blow of the fist and assaulted her. He then told her to go home for the day and threatened dire results if she dared tell anyone what had occurred.

assaulted By
minds Justice
To Prosecute
immediately told her mother of the
brutal attack and the two women
went at once to the authorities in
an effort to have the beast arrested.
They found the machinery of
justice working poorly. Warrants for
the arrest of white men for assault-
ing colored girls were not being
issued that day. Police and detectives
said they would investigate, and told
the women to go home.
Chance Brings Gunby in Case
A chance conversation between
two young girls on the street
brought the affair to the attention
of Mr. Gunby. He heard them tell
of the white man's cowardly attack
then remarked that the girl could
not even have the man arrested.
From the Girl's story got her
address: Riley Deputy and he at
visited the girl and her mother.
He was told the entire story there
and he then accompanied the ladies
to the office of Chief of Police Black,
who heard the story, hummed and
hawed a bit and finally referred 'the
party to Coleman, the court clerk.
Coleman plainly showed that he did not want to issue the warrant. Instead he attempted to cross question the girl in an improper manner, but he was interrupted by Mr. Gunby, who pointed out to him that it was his duty to issue the warrant as he would do in a case where the woman was white and the rest oblored. The white man related to this statement the white American manner, got angry and red faced, but met by Gunby's determined attitude and finally issued the warrant.
Nix Case Recalled
Certain phases of this case are analogous to the case of Carrie Nix, the young Philadelphia girl who was assaulted by seven white men months ago. Despite the fact that one of the men confessed his part in the affair the case had been delayed and no punishment meted out to the guilty party.
About 600 years ago in England, the burning of coal for fuel was forbidden, because the gases were said to be detrimental to health.

Housing Conditions Good In Baltimore, Says Report Of Labor Dept. After Survey
Modern Homes In Vogue,
Valued at From $1,600 to
$10,000, Says Report.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 4. —P. N. S.-Following an investigation of Negro housing situation in Baltimore, Md., the U. S. Department of Labor has made public the following report: "According to occupant-owners and tenants of houses belonging to Negroes, residential properties in Baltimore, ranging in estimated values of from $1,600 to $10,000, are typical examples of the major housing facilities available to Baltimore's 108,322 Negroes, who are being slowly augmented by migrants from the South. The houses, as to which data were used, were located in designated residential manner as to location, and from centers of the city in which there reside colored people representative of Baltimore's entire Negro population.
"In making this investigation the department realized, of course, that small streets and alleys are still, unfortunately, the abiding places of large numbers of colored people of limited means, who are crowded into small dwellings. Yet, with the exception of these small and limited localities, the problem of housing congestion in Baltimore is not a serious one.
"Houses occupied by Negroes and located on such typical Baltimore streets as McLuvalle, East Twelve, West Lnvalle, Ashland avenue, North Carrollton, North Carney, Jefferson, Myrtle, Division, Pennsylvania avenue, Leadenhall, George, Argyle avenue, Mosher, East Fayette and North Caroline, were described by their occupants, whose conclusions are summarized as follows:
"In the ratio of 9 to 11, the occupants of these properties had purchased the same, and, where necessary, improved the houses by the installation of modern heating appliances, electric lights, hardwood floors, etc. Actual rentals of these properties, and estimated rentals submitted by owners, ranged from $16 to $80 per month. Informed data varied according to the size, space, and condition of the houses. A surprising condition brought to light by the investigation was the fact that in the ratio of 8 to 12, householders and their immediate families were the sole occupants of the home, and did not sublet any portion of the rented or owned property. In other cases, the number of rooms sublet ranged from one to three, and in one case four rooms of a six-room house, renting for $40 per month, were sublet to rentage of the houses, the majority of which were brick dwellings, contained from 6 to 16 rooms, and, with but four exceptions, were well brightened by daylight.
"In a few cases, the occupants described the plumbing as being 'poor' and 'fair', but in the majority of cases it was said to be 'good.' Toilet facilities and severage fell slightly below the very favorable testimony to as lighting and plumbing; but the general description was 'good' and, in several cases, 'spendid:' "In comparing the construction and rental prices of the houses studied with similarly located houses, occupied by white householders, two informants stated that Negro tenants, as a rule, paid a higher price for poorer shelter and facility than

did white tenants. The data compiled sustain the slightly-higher price; but, as to general construction and specifications, it is indicated that there is virtually no difference between the facilities available to the two classes of occupants. In location, it was observed that high-resirable residential sections and block residences of Negro residents, commanded higher sale and rental prices than sections which have long been open to Negro householders, a situation which is comparable to that of other large cities in which the Negro population is rapidly increasing. "In its entirety, the housing situation among the colored people of Baltimore, Md., seems to bear no symptoms of unnatural needs, or indiscriminate housing image such as has appeared in several cities. A normal housing adjustment, in keeping with the needs of the city's Negro populace, is apparently ever applicable to each individual case, as the necessity arises."
New York Financier Declares Negro Will Decide '24 Election
New York Financier Declares Negro Will Decide '24 Election
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept. 4—"The decided vote in the coming presidential election will be cast by the colored people," declared John E. Milholland, of New York, financier, politician and philanthropist, at the Memorial Day exercises at Jethro Presbyterian church, as he launched into his pet subject of equal rights for all peoples, with special emphasis on the colored man, due to the fact, he says, that to the colored man the world owes its gift of liberty a life in the present form of democracy. He claims that the Ethiopian, first promulgated the idea of democracy and quoted biblical history to substantiate his claim.
Milholland is the founder of the local Presbyterian church which he dedicated to the memory of Jethro. It is his one burning passion to establish the memory of the Midian priest in world history as the founder of democracy, and to further see that his people fall heirs to this heritage. His talk was inimitable and full of valuable information, and was thoroughly enjoyed by the biggest crowd that has ever squeezed into the new Jethro building. Mr. Milholland is the father of the late Inez Milholland and recently created quite a stir in national politics when he chided the National Woman's party for refusing to allow one of his guests, Dr. Emmett J. Scott, a Negro, to speak on the occasion of a pilgrimage of the party to the grave of the noted suffragist leader.
Luncheon is served every Friday noon at 44 John street, New York City, the oldest Methodist church in America, for the convenience of the 800 business men and women who attend the noonday service.

Comrades Guard Frank Crosswaith After Impassioned Attack On
"Colored Debs," Candidate For Secretary of State, Raps Labor Federation.
NEW YORK, Sept 4—Frank R. Crosswash, known among Socialists as the "colored Debs" because of his oratorical ability, made such a bitter attack last Saturday evening on the Ku' Klux Klan before a crowd of 3,000 at Washington and Fifth Street, Hoboken, that four of his white comrades thought. it best to escort him to a car after a meeting. Crosswash was nominated Sunday for Secretary of State on the Socialist ticket.
Crosswash ran for Congress two years ago in the 21st District and nominated A. Philip Randolph, editor, for Secretary of State in 1922.
Crosswairth is organizer of the Elevator Operators' and Starters' Union, Local No. 67. He has been a Socialist since 1918, having become disgusted with both of the major parties, he says, because of their indifference toward the Negro.
"The Negro long with every other group in this Republic, contributed immensely toward the success of American arms in Europe, but the returned Negro soldier found enough life to fought to make the world safe for humanity, wholehearted sacrifices and co-operation did not help to make America safe for him." said Crosswairth.
"I see no beneficial change coming to the Negro in this country except it be through organized labor. I make this statement mindful of the fact that the Negro in many instances is discriminated against by the American Federation of Labor. But the Socialist Party is different from the American Federation of labor, the former is the most forward section of the movement. It is the political organization of the workers of this and other countries. Its programs and aims are all in the interest of labor."

"How Much Should I Eat?"
"How much should I eat?"
If any of you find arithmetic as much of a bugbear as I do, you may read your answer in this article without fear, for while I must talk in terms of mathematics, for my own sake I shall eliminate figures as much as it is possible to do so and treat the subject.
In the first place, how much do you weigh? Your present weight normal or age? Next, what kind of work do you do? Upon these conditions depends the amount of energy from food that you need to "keep you going."
Before I can go further, I must tell you that by experimentation we have learned how much energy certain amounts of food actually give off in the body just as engineers show how much power they—there is given off by a pound of coal). Just as we call a unit of measure "an inch" so we call the unit of energy, food produces, "a cers calorie." That is simple and clear.
Now: one large orange will give you 100 calories and one egg will give you 75 calories, and so on. How many calories do you need in a day?
If you are a stenographer, or a teacher, or a milliner, seamstress, bookkeeper (in other words, if you lead a sedentary life) you need 2,000 or 2,200 calories a day.
If you stand or walk a great deal (houswives) you need 2,000 or 2,500 colonies a day.
If you do muscular work, using a great deal of energy, you need 2,500 or 3,000 calories a day.
If you are interested in knowing whether or not you are eating enough, or too much food, you can find tables of foods and calories in a book called "Feeding the Family" by Mary Swartz Rose.
How much should you eat? no more and no less than you require for holding your normal weight while you do your work.

amongst that group that heretofore never interested themselves in politics, it is very necessary to keep after them and get them registered on next Tuesday. On Saturday evening, Sept. 6th, a monster worker's luncheon will be given at Simon Davis' one of the largest caterers on Broad Street. At this luncheon it is hoped by the State Committee that they will be able to congregate "Keen for Senator" workers from all parts of the State and it is the plan according to the statement given out by Chairman Murray of a campaign of education by which the nun-voters will be instructed just how to vote their ballot. At every meeting that is being held in different counties, a miniature voting booth has been established for the purpose of instructing those of us who have never voted before just how to vote. On next Monday evening, Sept. 8th, a monster mass meeting will be held at the Roosevelt Memorial Temple under the auspices of the Independent Negro Voters Association. The speakers for this meeting are announced will be Bisha Place of the A. M. E Zion Church, H. H. Colgate, Hon. Isaac H. Nutter Chairman of the Colored Republican State Committee and Hon.

Insurance Companies Doing Good
CHICAGO, Ill., Sept. 4—The National Negro Life Insurance Association which holds its fourth annual meeting at the Wabash Avenue Y. M. C. A., was one of the most interesting meetings of the four branches of the National Business League, which celebrated its 25th annual session at the Wendell Phillips High school. Reports showed that the Negro life insurance companies, with $100,000 each on deposit with the state in which they are doing business. There are thirty-five sick and accident companies being successfully operated and seven of them are located in Chicago. "Statistics will show," said Dr. M. O. Bousfield, med examiner of the Liberty Life Insurance Co., "a gain mortality in the last decade. Negroes better homes and extend health among insurance companies and doctors for better and more sanitary quarters for better and more sanitary southern migrants have flocked to infant welfare stations, heard lectures by insurance companies and this has decreased infant mortality in the last four years." A, F. Herndon, president of the Atlanta Life Insurance Co., and C. C. Spandling Durham W. C. retiring president apoke on the progress of the insurance companies. Mr. Frank L. Gillespie of the Liberty Life Ins. Co., who delivered the principle address on the opening day, was elected president. He is founder and first president of the Liberty Life. This company stands as a monument to his genius, uniting energy and health in a single age, the vision of a new day and resolved that his own life should play a part in the pageant of progress. He became the first colored superintendent of an Old Line Legal Reserve company, doing industrial and ordinary business. Seeing the need of a company among his own people, he founded Liberty Life. Its assets are $358,000, its earnings are $85,000 in force, $4,306,750. Mr. Gillespie is a type of the new Negro who heads the National Life Insurance Association.
One of the most gratifying reports to the conference was the organization of the Northeastern Life Insurance of Newark N. J., headed by Harry Pace, former secretary-treasury and which is now nearing completion. President Pace states that the company will shortly deposit $100,000 with the state of New Jersey and will soon be issuing insurance. The Mid-West Life Insurance Company of Kansas-City, Mo., has recently increased its capital to $200,000 and will serve company. Dr. W. J. Thompson is president and Attorney Chas. H. Calloway general counsel.

Personal friends of William H. Lewis will appreciate that he has the undisputed right to declare for the Democratic ticket if he so desires. His statement in the New York Times of last Sunday indicates that he is all worked up over the Ku Klux Klan. He even charges that the Republican party is a party of klanism. Indeed, Mr. Lewis gives us to understand that he is supporting Mr. Davis chiefly to escape supporting the Ku Klux Klan.
Mr. Lewis, of course, appreciates the liberty we have to support the party of our choice. We can not see the logic of the Harvard Center, when he says the Republican party is the party of the Klan. The Klan issue was never allowed to enter the party platform at Cleveland; while the Democratic convention spent most of its time debating whether the Klan should be named as "an undesirable political force" or whether the party should go on record "without naming the Klan." The issue in the Madison Square Garden convention was: "Shall we name the Klan or shall we not." The Klansmen won out by 4.3 votes, and the party left this record for all men, and for all time. The Klan took hold of the party, and wrote the platform to suit it self.
Mr. Lewis is an educated man. He ought to know the record of the Democratic party as made at Madison Square Garden. We take it for granted that Mr. Lewis knows the record. Every other Negro in the country knows that record.
If Mr. Lewis knows the record of the Democratic party; if he knows that the Klan, actually took the convention and adopted its own platform; if Mr. Lewis knows that political parties have no other chart than their platforms adopted in convention, then he knows that he is misrepresenting the facts when he charges that the Republican party is the party of the Klan.
If Mr. Lewis knows anything he knows that the Republican party refused to countenance the Klan at Cleveland. The committee on platform refused flatly to entertain the Klan representatives. Mr. Lewis knows, or ought to know this bit of history. It is very recent. The party Mr. Lewis has just adopted as his, accepted Klan domination at Madison Square Garden in an open convention, with the Klan issue openly drawn, and openly debated.
And aside from the Klan issue, and the misrepresentations offered by Mr. Lewis as his reason for "going over to Davis," there is another most unfortunate feature which can not be overlooked.
William H. Lewis was the first Negro to hold the high office of Assistant United States Attorney, whose appointment was confirmed by the Senate. We have not another such appointment. Mr. Lewis reflected credit upon his group by his performance of duty. His party was proud of the appointment, although it was a shocking departure from former prudences. Mr. Lewis left office several years ago. He has not been active in party politics since his term expired. He says he does not now desire public office. He is content to follow his profession. This is a happy lot, to say the least, but Mr. Lewis must remember that the Republican party is responsible for his present happy and independent lot.
Is it the part of loyalty—even more, is it the part of gratitude for Mr. Lewis now to desert the party that made him, and declare for the very party that tried to prevent the honors he and his race enjoyed when the Senate confirmed him? Has Mr. Lewis the justification or excuse any reasonable beneficiary ought to have before deserting a benefactor for an avowed enemy? And, if Mr. Lewis desires to throw himself and his personal interests into the party of Tom Heflin, Cole Blease and Tillman's descendants, let him do it. But we challenge his right to speak for the rest of the loyal and grateful Republicans, who prefer to remain with the party of Lincoln and Roosevelt in an endeavor to correct its errors, rather than fly to an avowed enemy with no better reason than Mr. Lewis gave out in his declaration of last Sunday.
Mr. Lewis may have suffered some disappointments. Other men have been disappointed in life. But disappointments never justify impulsive acts which appear more like the sulkings of a peeved boy than the conduct of a Harvard graduate. The great Harvard Center is "off-side" this time.
An Example of Service
The Steel City Bank cleared for the Elks' Convention last week by cashing the convention check for $5,789.30. President Carter was called upon rather suddenly, but he sensed the importance of "service," and the money was forth coming.
This reminds us that the Brother Elks ought to distribute their immense treasury so our own banks can have a little of the cash. As it stands now, most of our money is in white banks. That is just why we can not make our banks any more solid than they are. We do not put enough of our big money in our own banks. Steel City Bank could have refused to cash a check so large, and especially when it was not-certified. But "service" was placed above custom and the check was cashed.
THE PITTSBURGH COURIER
DENT, IN 1919
SCHOOL DAYS
We mention this courtesy to remind our many secret orders that the race gave that money to the treasury of the order. The race ought to have some opportunity to reap some benefit from all that cash. Our own banks need capital with which to serve our racial and group needs. Our secret orders owe our banks a more substantial patronage. Give us a chance to grow by giving us something with which to grow.
Our own banks can and will give bond. That is all any bank can do. A bond is a bond, wherever given, and our banks ought to be included when all these thousands are being placed on savings accounts in white banks.
Give us a little practice on that "brotherly love" and those skin breaking grips and signs. We need a little practice.
Squibs
With the Leopold-Leob case out of the way, the Epinard Zev contest behind us, and the Labor Day vacation a thing on the past, perhaps the Presidential campaign can get under way.
Bill Lewis went over to the Democratic party "to reform it." We prefer to remain with the Republican party "to improve it." Imagine Tom Heflin and Bill Lewis in the same Pullman passing through Georgia!
Negroes are "getting more like 'em" every day. They have gone to committing suicide now. Bill Lewis, for example.

EDITORIAL OF THE WEEK
"Fraternal Slaves"
(From the Chicago Whip)
A recent editorial in this newspaper attempted to show to what extent the southern whites had made use of the radio as an agency of their insidious propaganda; it was not thought, however, at the time of that writing that a black man himself would either intentionally or inadvertently use the magic and the wonder of the radio as an "arguement hominem"; but that was what the Chicago chapter of the Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity did when the courtesy was extended to them last Wednesday day to broadcast to the public. They did broadcast, but instead of broadcast a message of inspiration to the black world and a message of information and illumination to the white world, they bowed their head as the cotton pickers of the "ole Kentucky home" and quaked out in simple Senegambian song the ancient slave melody about "Massa being in de cold, cold ground and all de darkies weeping."
It has been the policy of this newspaper to be fair to fraternities and "Trojans and Tyrians" have been treated with no discrimination and
A recent editorial in this newspaper attempted to show to what extent the southern whites had made use of the radio as an agency of their insidious propaganda; it was not thought, however, at the time of that writing that a black man himself would either intentionally or inadvertently use the magic and the wonder of the radio as an "argument ad hominem," but that was what the Chicago chapter of the Kappa Alpha Psi Fraternity did when the courtesy was extended to them last Wednesday to broadcast to the public. They did broadcast, but instead of broadcasting a message of inspiration to the black world and a message of information and illumination to the white world, they bowed their heads as the cotton pickers of the "ole Kentucky home" and quaked out in simple Senegambian song the ancient slave melody about "Massa being in de cold, cold ground and all de darkies weeping."
It has been the policy of this newspaper to be fair to fraternities and "Trojans and Tyrians" have been treated with no discrimination and the offense of the Kappa Alpha is not a fraternal offense, but rather an insidious massacrement to every member of the black race regardless of his fraternity by virtue of secret orders there is that brotherhood of misery between all black men superinduced by the hatred and malice of the white race. The entire brotherhood of black men are subjected to derision and ridicule when such memories and traditions are flung into their faces and the knowledge of compulsory servitude is revived in the minds of the whites.
Whenever an intelligent black man gets before a white audience and sings a slave song he does a heinous thing. He brings back the thought to his listeners that it was but yesterday when he was a human beast of burden without a right that the whites respected, and more than that he brings back the memory of the overseer and the auction block and he summons to stand beside him as he sings Simon Legree and kindred spirits. Byron said that "standing on a Persian's grave that he could not deem himself a slave," but there are those among us who still dwell on the old plantation, still pick the cotton and worship "ole Massa." They are slaves because they think in the terms of slavery, they feel themselves limited as slaves. And for benefits and purposes they are slaves, because "as a man thinketh so is he." Prison walls and iron bars are not necessary to enthrall mankind. We are enslaved and enthralled when we steep ourselves in infernal propaganda and stagnate our souls with the traditions and memoirs of a subject race. Such is the work of the Kappa and their ante-bellum quartet which stood on the roof of the LaSalle Hotel gazing almost upon the statue of Lincoln, inhaling the same breezes that invigorated Lovejoy and sang the songs of slavery. The quartet was composed of young men, intelligent men who have been blessed with the advantages of education and opportunity. Men like these should be removed from the philosophies of Uncle Tom and the peculiar quirks of uncle Tom who takes three generations to make a gentleman and maybe it will take ten years to free men. That is, if the Kappas continue their insidious and insipid propaganda. It is much to be regretted and we do not believe that the fraternity intended to embarrass its constituency, but "hell is paved with good intentions."

(For A. N. P.)
Who was Ira Aldridge?
Ira Fredrick Aldridge, who was probably the foremost actor in the history of the race, was most noted for his characterization of Othello, in which he made a successful depute. Ira Aldridge, whose talent was first discovered by the favored Edmund Kean, to whom he was valet, showed such aptitude in characterizations that Kean helped him and in 1839 he appeared in Convent Garden, London, England, as Othello to Kean's Iago, his performance attracting world-wide, attention. Ira Aldridge was decorated by the King of Prussia and died in Poland in 1867.
What was the Anthony Burns case?
The Anthony Burns case attracted more attention than any other case arising in the execution of the fugitive slave law. Burns, who was a fugitive from Virginia, living in Boston, was discovered by a slavey who tried peacefully to coax him into a slavey's captivity, tempted the slavey appealed to the law and won his case. On the day for Burns' removal feeling in Boston, was so high that a great banner bearing the legend, "The Death of Liberty," was strung across the city's main street; and a large military force with a field piece was required to escort Burns, South. Boston people subscribed to purchase Burns' liberty and he was soon released, and brought to North Carolina, where he entered the ministry and was a missionary in St. Catherine's, Canada, until his death, which occurred in the 60's.
Who was Prudence Crandall?
Navas Prudence Crandall was a Quaker teacher, who was mobbed at Canterbury, Corn, for opening a school for Negro children. As a result of this episode the state subsequently passed a law making it an offense to open Negro schools and in 1835 a school in the State of New Hampshire (Noyes Academy) was pulled out of the community by a mbb of citizens employing a hundred yoke of oxen to do the work.
Klan Will Not Parade In City
The Ku. Klux Klan will not parade in Pittsburgh on Sept. 24, according to a statement issued Tuesday by Sam D. Rich, king klegle and imperial representative of the Realm of Pennsylvania. Refusal to compromise is the keynote of the statement. It reads in part:
"So much discussion was required and so many restrictions laid down by city officials concerning the parade permit request, and one of the basic fundamentals of our organization—the robe—would have had to be disregarded, that we have decided to wait until that time when compromise will be necessary before compromise is in public in Pittsburgh women."
THE-DIGEST
SINCE the death of Frank I. Cobb last December, the editorial page of the New York World has steadily declined. It has lost its moral power. It has lost its spiritual power. Today, on national and international issues it takes the form of nagging more than the role of enlightenment.
On national issues in particular it has created a few formulas to fit it's position, and parrot-like, repeats them over and over with only slight variation. The rugged, honest, sincere quality of former years is lacking.
In it's zeal to render "public service". The World has frequently gone too far. In Fall, Forbes and Danghery it finds the criterion of Republican achievement. In the Dawes plan it sees nothing for which the present Administration at Washington can claim credit. For Alfred E. Smith it would shed its last drop of blood. It thinks President Coolidge keeps silent because he doesn't know what to say.
Walter Lippmann, the chief editorial writer, is an informed man, but he lacks perspective. He often sees through amoked lenses--imperfectly. He has neither the depth nor the possibilities of the man who preceded him.
THE Garvyites have embarked on a new ship scheme. The Shadyside and the Yarmouth, for one reason or another, being out of commission, the President-General of the U. N. I. A. orders $30,000 cash sink into a third secondhand liner known as the "George W. Geethals" with a second payment of $45,000 due in sixty days. The ship is to be renamed the "Booker T. Washington."
It is strange how the followers of Mr. Garvey would elect to go through the same experiences of two years ago, after such a valuable and obvious lesson with the first two boats. There was a little excuse for the gullibility the first time. Negroes had never before attempted to operate a vessel. They wanted to give it a trial. But aft the disasterous outcome it does seem that they could have seen their own shortcoming and hesitated, at least for a time, before throwing the money into a hole in the ground again.
As for Mr. Garvey himself we are convinced that his sole motive is to keep himself popular with his followers. He would have them forever believe that he is a "superman", a door of the impossible. But let him go his way. The bottom will finally fall out of his proposition of it's own dead weight.
THE Silver Jubilee of the National Negro Business League was held last week in Chicago. It marked twenty-five years of steady growth, of hard work and the intelling of confidence in the commercial capacity of ourselves.
Dr. Moton, president, in his address said: "There is no need today for discouragement; rather there is every reason for hopefulness from whatever angle we may view our situation, notwithstanding the back currents and eddies in our political and social progress. The Business league has a very large share in the astounding progress that the race has made."
President Coolidge wrote in part as follows:
The convention of the National Negro Business League is of particular interest and not because it marks the quarter centennial of this organization. In addressing to you for the convention, my felicitations and good wishes on this occasion, I wish particularly to pay tribute to the league's founder and your distinguished predecessor, the late Booker T. Washington.
A CHILD'S STORY OF AMERICAN LITERATURE, by Algernon Tassin and Arthur Bartlett Maurice. The MacMillan Company, 66 Fifth avenue, New York. Pages 353.
SOME things are born; some things just grow. The widely famed Topsy of "Uncle Tom's Cabin" said she never was "borned," she just "grewed." May we say the same of American literature? According to Tassin and Maurice; the authors of this instructive blue covered book, American literature was born and "born grown up."
Our literature, like our educational, economic, industrial, and social interests, was an infant in the days of colonization; the Northern Colony being the one to print the first American book—a Bay Psalm Book; while Cotton Mather was the foremost writer and minister at that time.
Years passed slowly and a real literary era was mothered in this progressive country. Famous names, long to be remembered, blossomed forth in the period that followed the Revolution. Such men as Philip Frenau, the Poet of the American Revolution; Charles Brookden Brown, the first American Novelist; William C. Bryant, with his "Thanatopsis" and "The Waterfowl"; Noah Webster, compiler of the American dictionary of the English language are all products of that period.
A little later period brought to us Washington Irving, with his valuable "Sketch Book"; Fenimore Cooper with his "Last of the Mohicans" and "The Pathfinder"; Edgar Allen Poe with his "Gold Bug"; and Channing and Thoreau, two vital factors in the theological change in America.

The lives of numerous others are told in such an alluring manner that every American child can grasp a meaning of literature and its part in our daily lives. American literature, the expression of the life and the aspiration of a people, depends upon you. "It is

I reflects small credit on those who had christian arrangements for paying tribute to the martyrs Inez Milholland for them to have dismember against the colored representatives who were put the N. A. A. G. P. was right when it telegraphed Paul of the National Woman Party that "all intention to race prejudice is to be the price of election women to office we sincerely hope that every one of candidates will be defeated in the coming election."
The tribute paid Miss Milholland by Mrs. W. Hunton did credit not only to the dead soldier, but to herself and her race as well. The fit part:
"Not far distant, overshadowed by the same mountains, is the grave of John Brown. Here is Milholland who hurled herself with such treason force against the bulwarks of wrong that only the remains.
"Hers was a practical application of the Rule and as you seek here today a re-invent her vivid and vital personality you are challenge her conception of the 'Brotherhood of Man' that no mere platitude in her life bounded by race but it was as wide as humanity itself."
"In Iner-Milholland the colored Americans faithful and courageous friend and through the national Association for the Advancement of Colored Pls (twelve millions call her blessed."
