"Not Guilty!"
Floyd McDougal of Clairton in Criminal Court, Tuesday heard his "fate." He smiled—he laughed, and, finally, shook the hand of his attorney, Frank R. Steward.
MRS. ESLANDA GOODE ROBESON, and business manager of Paul Robeson the Star in "All God's who credits her with having guided him into fame. Both are graduates, and the wife is a chemical expert in the Surgical laboratory. She is a girlish looking body, that has surprised any experienced managers when they negotiated with her for use of the plan. She handles the family correspondence and finances.
"It means I am free?" he asked.
"Free," said Attorney Steward.
McDougal was on trial before Judge John Haymaker for the murder of Nathaniel Fellon April 15, last, when he surprised the latter in bed with his wife. McDougal was ably defended by Attorney Steward, while Assistant District Attorney Benjamin Lencher appeared for the state. The jury deliberated about two hours.

"Gentlemen of the jury, it is your opportunity to bring in a joyful verdict of "not guilty." You are then announcing to the homewrecker and assassin that a man has a perfect right to enjoy the pleasures and sacred privileges of his own home, and when a man like the deceased dares to enter the sanctity of the home and attempt not only to rob that home of the love and honor of the woman, the wife, but seeks to do the head of that home bodily harm when he attempts to defend himself, as in this case, he should meet the fate he deserves," said Attorney Steward.

McDougal went on the stand and told a dramatic story of the bitter, fatal affair. He said he and his wifie Esther lived quietly at their home, 613 Hill street, Clairton, and when he returned home unexpectedly Apr. 15th, he found Felton in his bedroom. A battle followed, ending in Felton crashing through a window to a porch below. When found by officers Felton was mortally wounded, a four inch cut below the groin causing him to bleed to death. McDougal admitted he, slashed Felton with a razor during the encounter, but that he did not inflict the leg wound.

Campaign For Roberts Is On In Full Force
Committee Holds Enthusiastic Meeting — Determine On House-to-House Campaign.
NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. 25 — Getting into stride immediately following the primaries, the Roberts Congressional Campaign Committee held an enthusiastic meeting at its headquarters, 2368 Seventh avenue, on Thursday night. Although Dr. Charles H. Roberts, Republican candidate for Congress in the 21st Congressional district was unopposed in the primaries, Republicans throughout the district, evidently with the view of indicating their interest in his candidacy, turned out in large numbers. The meeting of Thursday was in effect a conference for the purpose of considering means to increase the registration. District captains and committeemen throughout this section attended the meeting which was addressed by a number of prominent Republicans, including Robert S. Conklin, leader the 21st A. D.; David B. Custma, leader of the 19th A. D., and Valentine J. Hahn, leader of the 13th A. D. It is understood that the registration committee has determined upon a house-to-house canvass and that the campaign to elect the candidate for Congress will be instituted with full force from now until the election.

Goes on Slumming Party; Young Girl Killed By Youth
LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Sept. 25—Hunted through the swamps of Arkansas for the death of pretty Tessie Gilbert, 17-year-old school girl, whom he killed in a dance resort, Earnest Couch, 19 years old, has eluded his pursuers and still remains at large. The girl, on out a slumming party with a number of her friends, was accosted by the youth and asked to dance. When she indignantly refused, he pulled a revolver shot her, and then held the entire place at bay until he could effect an escape.

Pretty Wife, Already Wed, Story Hints
Article a Tissue of Lies Written By An "Astute Mind" Says Pastor of Big M. E. Church
NEW YORK, Sept. 24. Through his personal counsel, Attorney Samuel Glasson of 85 West 143rd street, the Rev. Dr. of the Revel A. M. E. Church at 52 West 132d street, has also a suit alleging criminal libel against the Hotel Tattler Publishing Company, incorporated, because of the story about himself and his youthful and beautiful wife, Mrs. Alma Douglas Thornton, published in its issue of September 21.
Dr. Thornton is seeking judgment for a considerable amount, it is understood, but the exact figure was not divulged by him Tuesday evening in an interview with a Courier reporter.
"The whole thing is perfectly absurd," said Dr. Thornton, with a flash of indignation in his eye, as he discussed the matter. "You can see from the article that it is nothing medial, pure and simple, designed to try to discredit me, and written by an innate mind with a careful eye to avoiding serious tensions to escape legal entanglements. But that is all right," he continued. "They will be taken care of."
The story in the Tattler alleged that Dr. Thornton married his present wife before she had been legally divorced from one John Urquhart, who is alleged to have been her first husband. The story also infers that Dr. Thornton might have figured in the udoling of the martial relations of the couple and suggested that one of them partially defrayed the expenses of the annulment, which is said to have been secured in a California court.
To these charges and inferences Dr. Thornton made the following reply:
"I met my first wife only a few months ago and we were married shortly after. She had been a member of my Sunday School. I knew nothing of her first husband, other than that according to the affidavits submitted when her marriage was annulled, it was declared they had not lived together and that the young man had practically forced the girl to marry him. I do know, however, that the rival of Urquhart was Robert Cooper, son of Dr. A. R. Cooper, a former pastor of my church. I rather think Urquhart was trying to hit back at Cooper when he practically forced the girl to marry him, as I was told she was first engaged to Cooper. So far as I am concerned my wife and I are legally married. She was legally divorced, or rather her marriage was legally annulled, and was not contested for over a year. This late bluster is only a cheap effort to attack me because I am a prominent man, but they will be taken care of for the slanderous statements they have made."

And while the entire country is seriously concerned about her fate, sad-eyed Louise lays grief-stricken upon an iron cot in a Philadelphia jail.
"I didn't know I had such friends . . . that such people lived . . . she said in a conference with a clergy-man, who told her of the big effort to have her death sentence commuted.

Chicago Cafe Padlocked by U. S. Officers
Closing Order Follows Ableged Violations of Dry Law — Jack Johnson Present.
CHICAGO, Ill., Sept. 25 — The Dreamland Cafe, famous "black and tan", resort of Chicago's famous South Side, and the rendezvous of the sporting and theatrical element, is closed.

afternoon, and Richard Lee, who went to the former notorious "black and tan" resort to execute closing orders, issued Friday by Federal Judge Jas H. Wilkerson, were met by Jack Johnson, former, heavyweight champion and several hundred others. The deputies were accompanied by two photographers and Johnson demanded that no pictures be taken.
Persons familiar with Johnsons affairs were at a loss to understand his reported activities in front of the Dreamland. In sporting circles it has been common knowledge that the former champion owed Bill Bottoms owner of the cafe, $6000 for many months and that Bottoms has been ready to attach the receipts of any public appearance the pugilist may attempt.

Men Are Free After Seven YearsIn'Pen'
Others, Now Serving Terms, Will Be Eventually Released On Parole — Long Fight For Release.
LEAVENWORTH, Kas., Sept. 25
At noon Wednesday, the gates of the United States penitentiary here swung wide and five former members of the 24th infantry who entered the prison December 16, 1917, to serve life sentences in connection with the Houston riots, walked out free men.
The order calling for their release was received by Warden-W. I. Biddle from the department of justice yesterday. The men were released on paroles, recommended at the hearing of the parole board last May.
With the good wishes of prison authorities ringing in their ears, the men stepped through the big iron gates, shook hands with Warren Biddle, and were escorted to the edge of the prison grounds. There they boarded a street car and came to the city, from where they boarded trains to their various destinations.
One From Missouri
The men who went out were Ruben Baxter, who left for the state of Washington; Douglas T. Bolden, who goes to Iowa; Gerald Dixon, who left for Missouri; and Roy Ty. Joseph Williams, who go to Illinois.
Lacking two months, the five men served seven years, and in all that time only one mark was placed against the record of any of them.
The prisoners, with 67 others of the 24th infantry, were convicted on charges of disobedience in time of war and assault with intent to commit murder. They were sentenced to life imprisonment. Thirteen others were hanged. Of the 67, 49 are left in prison. Four have died and the others have been released on parole. All those remaining eventually will be eligible for parole, their sentences having been reduced on

Long Fight for Release
Long Right for Release
Scarcely more than a year ago, on Saturday, September 1, 1928, 300 delegates to the Fourteenth annual conference of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, which was held in Kansas city, Kans., made a pilgrimage to the site in Leavenworth in the auditorium there, spoke words of cheer to the prisoners through picked speakers. Through the kindness of Warden Biddle the so-called riots were especially assembled for the occasion.
James W. Johnson, Arthur F. Spingarn, Robert Bagnall, Bishop John Hurst and Mrs. Addie Hunton were among the speakers who told the men of the fight the N. A. C. P. was making in their behalf.
Last spring a petition containing the names of more than 100,000 citizens of the United States was assembled by the Association and presented to President Coolidge, asking a pardon for the men. In March a special clemency board recommended clemency and reduced the sentences of the men.
Stood by Authorities
Throughout the seven years of their service, the men were the steadfast friends of the prison authorities. For their conduct during a fire which broke out in the new west cell wing of the prison and for their assistance in putting down two mutinies of I. W. W. prisoners, they received special commendation. Roy Tyler saved the life of Ex-Deputy Warden L. J. Fletcher when another prisoner sought to attack him.
According to Lieutenant Russell L. Maughan, sun-chasing flier of the United States army, flying a moderate type aeroplane hour after hour in a transcontinental journey is no more trying upon human endurance than sitting at the wheel of an automobile for the same time.
Mrs. Aaron Malone Among Passengers On "Baltic" —Toured Through Five Countries.
NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. 25—Among the passengers on the "Baltic" which arrived at New York Monday was Mrs. Annie M. Turnbull-Malone, founder of Poro College, St. Louis, Mo. Mrs. Malone had spent the summer visiting in England, France, Spain, Switzerland and Italy. She was met in New York by Mr. Malone, who was prevented from accompanying her abroad by being a member of the committee chosen at Cleveland to notify President Coolidge of his nomination by the Republican party.
Women Fight To Save Girl From Chair
Board will ask for life imprisonment instead of the death penalty for the condemned woman. The woman's attorney will emphasize the extreme youth of the defendant, as well as the environment in which she lived, it was learned today. If the Board of Pardons refuses to commute the sentence, then the appeal be handed over to the court, which may not sign the order commuting the girl to imprisonment for life in the penitentiary. Governor Pinchot, who is recovering from an operation in a New York hospital, refused to make a statement concerning the case.
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People appealed to the Governor to commute the girl's sentence. Representative Emanuel Celler, of Brooklyn, sent a similar appeal. In addition to the part played by rase feeling in the case "the growing humanitarian feeling against the putting to death of a woman" was cited by the organization. James Weldon Johnson signed the petition.
In Philadelphia society and club women are busy arousing sentiment in favor of saving the girl's life. Mrs. Bessie Dobson Altemus Eastman, chairman of the Republican Women's club of Philadelphia County, said she would not only use her own efforts but try to enlist the support of her organizations in fighting the execution warrant. Mrs. Willie Layton, Mrs. Lena Trent Gordon and Mrs. J. J. Bailey are working with Attorney Dickerson to secure a change of sentence.
Mrs. Elizabeth Johnson, of Bradford, Pa.; Mrs. Marie Adams, of Washington, Pa.; Mrs. Eugene Newman, of Bradford; Miss Pearl Baxter, of Bradford, the entire membership of the Rebecca Aldridge Welfare club of New Kensington, and Mrs. Daisy Lampkin of the Lucy Stone League, Pittsburgh, have sent letters petitioning the Governor to save the girl's life. The woman of Peckhamia from this great humiliation and embarrassment," wrote Mrs. Lampkin.
"As a woman and a MOTHER, I raise my voice in protest against this girl being electrocuted," wrote Mrs. Newman of Bradford.
The New Kensington club appeal was signed by Lulu B. Holdbrook, president; Beulah White, correspondent secretary; Rev. W. M. Mitchell, Lillian Sidney, Lester Maugh, Stella Skins, Martha Waugh, Aline Sneak, Ben Crawford, Margaret Jackson, Harriet Garner, Leida Bowe, Nellie Tanner, Dora Waugh and Hattie Forrest,
Review of Case
The crime for which the Thomas girl was sentenced presents the age-old problems of an illicit love affair. Tired of the attentions of her paramour, Harrison' Saunders, a vice squal policeman, she shot him after a quarrel in which he threatened her life, she said. Both the girl and Saunders were married, but separated from their lawful mates. They had kept up an intimacy for about three years. On the night of the shooting, February 8th, last, the couple was alone in the girl's room at North 21st street, when the other occupants of the house after hearing revolver shots, found the Thomas girl crying hysterically. Saunders was in bed apparently in slumber with five bullet wounds in the side of his head above the ear.
On the stand Mrs. Thomas said that after many quarrels with Saunders she had endeavored to break off their friendship, but he persisted in following her and threatening her until she would forgive him. It was for this purpose that Saunders had sought her on the night of the fatal shooting, but she had become determined, she testied, and refused to be friends again.
She said Saunders then drew his revolver and threatened her with it. She grabbed for the gun when one shot rang out and she then "pulled the trigger, being so scared and frightened I did not know what I was doing. I thought I was shot myself."

Attacked By Greeks, Files $20,000 Suit
20-Year-Old Married Girl Victim of Restaurant Owner and 'Buddy' After Former Had Fired Her.
Brutally assaulted and forced to undergo untold indignities from the clawing hands of a Greek named Kittos, while Philip Petros, another Greek, and owner of the Liberty Restaurant, 1024 Liberty avenue, forced her to submit, pretty 20-year old Adelaide Clerk was filed suit for $20,000, and the two were out on bonds--aggregating $3,000.
Mrs. Carter, an extremely pretty girl, who with her husband, a Pullman porter, came here from Virginia, sought a job and was hired in the Paradise Restaurant. The couple live at 2412 Smallman street.
At the end of the week she was told that her work and "actions" apparently did not suit her employers. Told to Get Pay
She was informed, however, that she would have to go to the "office" on the second floor. for her money.
As she entered the room, the door was closed behind her and she was grabbed by one of the men. Screaming and fighting, she was held by one of the men, while the other one assaulted her.
It was evidently the purpose of both men to satisfy their lust, but John Khipta, hearing the girl's agonized screams, interfered and effected a rescue.
The case was first taken to Morals Court, where the men were held for court and later released under bond. Khipta is being held as a material witness.
Attorney P. J. Clyde Randall is handling the $20,000 suit. Petros is rated in Dun at $11,000.
Race Performers Suffer Setback
NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 25—(By A. N. P.)—Not content with having brought disrepute and inconvenience upon the many worthwhile acts that played on the Columbia Burlesque circuit Inst season, one of the teams that could not find further chance to do harm there about ruined the opportunities for colored acts over the Bert Levy time, according to recent letters on the subject.
Word has been sent out cancelling the bookings of nearly a score of colored acts over a circuit that has long been a recognized "standby" for these folks, all because house managers and hotel people could rather take the trouble to notice that the majority of the group differ from the team alluded to. In fact, most of the colored acts look upon these boys and their conduct with precisely the same degree of contempt as do all other decent people.
The proper protection of the right to live and earn a livelihood in their profession almost demands that the private lives of the colored performer must be investigated before they can get bookings, all because a few morons decline to recognize the most simple professional and personal ethics.
Grapefruit, entirely unknown to the average British before the war, now forms a regular part of the early morning diet in thousands of households in Great Britain.

Arrest Girl For Riding In White Coach
Arrest Girl For Riding In White Coach
DURMONT, Ark, Sept. 25 — "Well, Miss N——, you want to be white, eh!" "No, judge, but I DO want to be respectable," came the reply. The above dialogue ensued when Miss Elizabeth E. Lee, of Chicago, was arrested when she arrived here on a Missouri-Pacific passenger train on the charge of violating the Jim-crow law.
She had a ticket which called for first-class accommodation, but when she reached the Kentucky line was asked to take a seat in the jim-crow car. She looked into it, but found it occupied by drunken whites, who sued the jim crow car to recite smutty stories and drink bootleg whisky. One of the seats in this colored coach was used exclusively by the white newsboy to hold his magazines and fruit and the one toilet there was for use by both sexes. After one look Miss Lee went back into the white coach and stayed there until she arrived here and the conductor had telegraphed ahead and a big detail of police was on-hand to arrest the one lone woman.
She was fined $150 by the magistrate, but stumped him when she asked him why he didn't fine the drunken whites who were in the colored section of the jim crow car. Robert E. Lee, her father, who resides at 3149 South Park avenue, Chicago, plans to sue the railroad under the interstate law which guarantees first-class, accommodation and transportation as printed on the ticket. He is a mail carrier.

age of the ignorant or unsuspecting customer. Protect the man or woman whom you might be able to make the victim of unfairness. Let all persons share the advantages of your business. Keep your cookies on the shelf where all the children can get AARON E. MALONE at them." The above and other remarks were addressed to members of the Associated Business club of Chicago at their weekly noon-day luncheon by Aaron E. Malone, president of the Foro Company, St. Louis.
Mr. Malone's speech was in the nature of a plea. He told the business men of Chicago that they should be fair, not merely as good business principle, but more so because it was right to be fair. He reminded them of advantages they might take of the public without the public knowing, but reminded them that the most successful concerns avoided such practices. "During the war our company was paying $40,000 income tax every three months," Mr. Malone informed them. "The payment was a burden. We were counselled to raise the price of our commodity to cover the cost of the tax. I told my advisors that many businesses had met such difficulties and succeeded without shifting the burden to the public and had succeeded. We accepted the obligation and I feel that our stand in that instance is in no small way responsible for our 130,000 agents today."

stand why no importance is to be attached to the investigation. It is now believed that Wheeler was manufacturing a campaign of slander for Mr. La Follette because the two sons of La-Follette and Means gathered together, among other things, the evidence that Wheeler said he needed to put on the investigation. This is in accordance with the "confession" made this week by Means, who says that he, personally, handled and assorted all of the letters and data which came to Wheeler and picked out the kind of testimony that Wheeler had ordered. Wheeler says, "I expected Means to repudiate his testimony." Such a statement from Wheeler indicates if he indicates anything) Wheeler (if he indicates anything) Wheeler was a fabrication whose if Means had any respect for his own personal safety he would have to repudiate it. And it turns out that Wheeler was thinking exactly right, because Means has repudiated his testimony given before Wheeler, and it is said that Means is doing it because he does not want to go to any prison for perjury.
Even the two sons of La Follette were working with Means, so says Means, to gather up the testimony for the investigating committee, and Means says that La Follette and Wheeler were guilty of planning the attack on the government, as well as foisting the blackest lie ever created and thrust upon a credulous public. Everybody knows how fast scandal flies, and Wheeler, it seems, knew that as well as anybody and he was willing to start the scandal with Means and others of his kind as his chief message bearers and then become candidate for the Vice Presidency of the United States in a campaign born of scandal created by Wheeler for Wheeler's convenience and the La Follette ticket.
This is high crime among white people, if Means is correct, with the/evident purpose of taking the government away from honest people. by a process created in the minds of Wheeler and the two sons of La Follette, and in justice to those sons, it is believed that La Follette was the Master Mind back of the witch theme, if Means is telling the truth.
And yet some Negroes are credulous enough to believe that La Follette and Wheeler who are reported to be the candidates of labor unions.

It is now said and believed in many quarters that La Follette and Wheeler will both face an investigating committee composed of senators who will give the public all there is to be known about Gaston B. Means and his associates who spread such a black lie on the public records at Washington under Wheeler's personal direction. If Means is a liar, Wheeler knew it, and if Wheeler knew it he is guilty, using evidence from destroy his government, evidence from destroy his government, evidence believed that Wheeler and La Follette are out of the race because the respectable citizens of the United States will put them out of the race: November 4th.

Cites Money Hubby Made Bootlegging In Plea for Alimony
Cites Money Hubby Made Bootlegging In Plea for Alimony
ATLANTIC CITY, N. J., Sept.
25. It should not, be a hardship for her husband, Thomas Brown,
a city policeman, to pay her $1b a week instead of $10 which they are.separated, because he had repeatedly boasted of making big sums from bootlegging in addition to his salary, was the contention of Mrs. Brown before Judge Smathers in Domestic Relation Court.
(1) To Aunt Ellen. Davis, his housekeeper, and said by many to be his common-law wife, the big colonial house, stables, stock and 275 acres, the antique furniture and everything of value he possessed.
(2) To her boy, named Robert T. Hughes, 160 acres, worth $1,000 an acre.
(3) 100 acres to Alex Rankin, another servant, who had been in his home a long time.
Eventually all of this property will go to Aunt Ellen's boy, Robert, under the will. Robert cannot be found. He is said to be studying abroad. The Will Content Filed. White relatives in their suit to break the will allege this document is not the last will and testament of John T. Hughes. If any other document is in existence they have not produced it nor have they made public plans for attack.
Colonel Hughes knew his relatives would not agree with him and so he wrote it in his will that if any person filed a contest or mentigned a contest, their share should go to his colored son, Robert.
**Queer Kentuckian**
No one expected quite that from Col. John T. Hughes, although while he lived, there were those who did not find in him the nicer virtues which stamp a Kentuckian.
"He drinks his liquor from a kitchen tumbler, sir," his critics used to say.
"But dammit, he's a horseman," his friends argued, making the best defense they could.
"A horseman, yes," they who disapproved were willing to concede. "Still, don't you think he is too—too horsey? Spends too much time around the stables? Grooms and curries his nags and all that. Prefers their company." And didn't he say once, I think a bloodled filly is sweeter than a woman? That's the sort he is."
R. G. Wood, of Lancaster, Neb., and Ruth J. Jelsen, of Cincinnati, O., both school teachers, sought to be married on their birthday mini-
versaries, August 7 and 8, respec-
tively, so Judge Crawford, of Omaha, started the ceremony at five
minutes before, midnight and ran it
over into the morning.

Suggests "Jim Crow" Ballot Box In South
Woman's Idea to Have Black and White Ballot Boxes Brings Hot Retort From George W. Lee.
CHICAGO, Sept. 25 — (By A. N. P.)—The time of political ideas is on. Louise R. McKay, of West Haven, Fla., white and resourceful, comes forth with an idea of having black and white ballot boxes. She sends a telegram to Republican-National Committee, which says:
"Let me offer an original suggestion before campaign, gets too hot. Since ballots are on white paper with names of candidates in black lettering, why not make change for colored voters by using black ballots with white lettering. Separate boxes for ballots requite less time in counting, also show how colored people vote. 'Iave mentioned this to scores. All approve. Am lady who championed soldiers' priority rights bill through Congress signed by President Harding, April 6th, 1922. Can coin soldier votes for any party."
In reply, George W. Lee, makes the following reply:
"Reference is made to your telegram of August 23. I am sorry to say that I cannot persuade myself as the others you mentioned, to see this question as they see it. I acknowledge the originality of your suggestion, but I doubt its feasibility. I am unable to see any contribution that such a plan will make to the success of the party in November. I would rather think of some plan that would stimulate registration among all the people, than to think of some cure before the maladies that you mention have actually set in. The Republican party cannot approve at this time of any plan that smacks of discrimination. The aim in this election is not to determine a number of votes cast by canvass by a dual system of voting. It will be better to concentrate on some plan that would make impossible the business items"—the shot run methods' that are used at the poles in preventing good Republicans from casting an honest ballot for Coolidge and Dawes.
"America is the home of many races and many tongues. To encourage cast and race discrimination is a dangerous policy. The fundamentals of Republicanism have been maintained by a closed rank formation of all the races. In all the wars in defense of our country's ideals the question of race was submerged and the only qualification was to be an American citizen. Hand in hand these people of all races marched forward as American citizens and handed our standard on the foremost floor of the enemy. Therefore in peace there should be but one standard in all of our pursuits. The white man needs the colored man, the Jew needs the Gentile. The spirit of Washington and Lincoln hover over us all."
If we are to maintain in our land a government of Common Sense, double standards and special privileges must be destroyed. The law in White Haven, Florida, as in Boston, Massachusetts, must be an expression of the consent of all the people and deal with all the people alike. To adopt white and black ballots, as you suggest, would drive thousands of colored voters from the country. The older man of today is no longer wedded to party, he is thinking in a more liberal vein, and to offend him at this stage of the campaign would mean indignation meetings everywhere, and a larger number voting the Democratic ticket.
Denied His Music At 6 a.m., Boarder Goes On Rampage
Pretty 18-Year-Old Girl Is Victim of Man Who Said He Didn't Know What He Was Doing.
CAMDEN, N. J., Sept. 25 — Because Dora Perry, a pretty 18-year-old girl of 1722 Phillis street, objected to playing the piano at 6 o'clock in the morning, Jesse White, 21 years old, a lodger, is declared to have thrown her downstairs. He likewise went down himself, and both were taken to the Homeopathic Hospital. White, under the influence of moonshine, attacked one of the internes and was later sent to jail, where he was committed in default of $1,000 bail by Police Judge Cleary. White said he had been drinking home-made liquor and "didn't know what he was doing."

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

French Girls Are Cause of Color-Fight
French Girls Are Cause of Color-Fight
PARIS, Sept. 25 — The color problem, always regarded as a peculiarly American institution, has suddenly loomed large in Paris, and the Government, working quickly and with precision, has created a special department to supervise the African natives, and Moroccans, who number 200,000 in the capital, as compared with 3,000 twenty years ago.
The great concern, however, is not over the criminal element, but with the ignorant natives who have been attracted to Paris by tales of pleasures and who frequently run and abetted by pretty French girls. The police are puzzled, it is said, because the transplanted natives accept punishment as a matter of course and start over, again, not realizing that they are breaking any laws. Special educational facilities are, being arranged as speedily as possible.
Much of the difficulty is said by those with experience in the colonies to be due to lack of understanding by the police and others of the psychology of the African natives, but the police say it is impossible for uneducated Africans to plunge suddenly into a great city and get along well. Consequently the police must be barge on the coming of lower-class natives, except where employment and proper surroundings are assured, and they can be helped by firm, friendly supervision.

Race Girls Are Telegraphers On Railroads
Department of Labor Statistics Show Surprising Results 136,065 Hands Employed.
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 25
—Figures showing the number and classification of Negro employees of steam railway lines, as summarized by the Department of Labor office, conclusively show the entrance, advancement, and permanency of employment of Negro workers in one of the most important industries of the country. In all, there are 136-065 Negro rail hands who are directly engaged in handling or safeguarding the transportation of persons or property over the lines of the various steam railway carriers of the United States:
Negro railway employees are usually thought of as porters, and the 136,065 total contains train and Pullman porters in the number of 20,224, of whom 23 are colored women. The other classified railway occupations, however, show that rail transportation workers of the Negro race are in no wise confined to providing traveling comforts and performing domestic service for passengers. In fact, the summary shows that there are two Negro officials and superintendents of rail lines, located in Ohio and Florida. Ninety-seven Negro telegraphers, well distributed over the country, are actually engaged in safeguarding passengers and property. There are 111 engineers and 6,475 firemen; 202 inspectors of way and structures; 202 telegraph and telephone linemen; 33 conductors; 111 baggemen and freight agents; 2,874 switchmen and flagmen; 1,195 foremen and overseers; 2,877 boiler washers and engine hostlers; 4,485 brakemen; 95,713 laborers; and 1,961 workers, employed at miscellaneous occupations, such as ticket agents and station hands, who are not classified in official listings. The total includes an appreciable number of female employees who work as porters, laborers, telegraph operators, etc. The New York State rail lines, in fact, boast of four female Negro telegraphers. Illinois, with the veteran J. H. Kelley, who for more than forty years has been a telegrapher for the Illinois Central Railroad Company, takes first place in the period of employment service.
Geographically, these 136,065 Negro rail hands are well distributed throughout every State in the Union. Georgia leads, with 10,865, and is followed by Louisiana, with 9,141; Virginia, 9,010; Alabama, 8,844; Texas, 8,381; Tennessee, 8,100; Mississippi, 7,744; North Carolina, 5,321; Florida, 5,091; Illinois, 4,554; Arkansas, 4,184; Kentucky, 3,916; South Carolina, 3,858; Missouri, 3,706; Pennsylvania, 3,569; Ohio, 3,219; Maryland, 2,221; West Virginia, 2,052; Oklahoma, Indiana, 1,167; New York, 1,127; the national States has less than 1,000 Negro rail workers, New Hamshire, with its 1 brakeman, 2 laborers and 1 switchman, completing the list.
The summary plainly shows that avenues of employment in the transportation industry are rapidly being opened to the colored worker and that his future in this phase of employment has a, particularly bright aspect.

Mixed Jury
Is Out Over
Week on Case
MEADVILLE, Pa. Sept. 25 —
After deliberating for 175 -hotirs, the
jury (composed ‘of 6 men and 6
women) in the, cage of Common:
wealth vs, Daf Ghirt,’ Sse, ral
road’ detective, charged with the
murder of Emmett Plummer in the
yards of the Erie railroad last May,
Teturned a verdict at 11 o'clock
Wednesday night of-fiot guilty.
It was the longest any jury has
ever- deliberated in reaching a ver-
dict in the Crawford county courts
and sets a unique precedent, as well
as farnishes food for real: thought.
There was much discussion about
the court house on Thursday as.to
the manner in which the jurors vot-
cd. Ballots without number were
taken day after day in an effort to
reach some agreement. It was stated
that at the very start, the vote was
7 to 5 for acquittal. ‘Soon the odds
were lengthened to 8 to 4, then to 9
to 3 and finally to 10 to 2. The
ballot stood 10 to 2 on Wednesday,
when the re. aining two.surrender-—
ed their stand and brcught the jury
deadlock to au end.
Every juror on the case was of
the opinion that Shorts deserved
some punishment, for his hasty act,
Ber were reticent of bringing in &
verdict of manslaughter or murder,
because of the. extreme penalty
which would be imposed. ~
It was only the illness of one-of
the jurors, Mrs. O, D. Hanks, which
brought the jury deliberation to an
end. > 2.

Is Highly Honored
LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Sept. 25. —
Tn the Pulaski Chancery Court here,
Attorney Scipio’A. Jones, was elected
to sit as Special Chancellor in the
case of Annie Eason versus Hayward
Eason, involving a complaint in
equity. Such an honor and distinct-
jon bestowed upon a Negro, lawyer
establishes a unique precedent in the
South and ‘possibly in the United
States. —
‘Attorney Jones became a national
figure through his defense of. the
Elaine rioters and his victor; for the
Negro Shriners over the white
Shriners in the latter’s efforts to: ‘pre-
vent the former from wearing the
Shrine regalia, pin, etc. ;

Any team must have a competent
manager in order to get anywhere
and for that important duty we
have ehisen John, Henry Lloyd, of
the Bacharachs. "He is bench man:
ager and infield utility man and
pinch-hitter. Here is a shrewd cam.
paigner wao knows every artifice of
his’ profession, an infallible judge
of diamonds in the rough and_one

our lineup shows and’those are the
things which win games, We are
safe ins saying that if this outfit
played the game jam-up they would
not lose more than one game in ev~

how a pitcher would shout for joy
with Warfield and Thomas on the

Sporting Editor,
Pittsburgh Courier.
Last week your paper carried the
news that I had beri appointed an
Eastern league commissioner to
handle the affairs of the world’s se-
ries in conjunction with Chairman
EdeBoldsp. Br. Bolden, called a
meeting of the-leagué in Philadel:
phia last Saturday night: At that
meeting I found out several things
which I want the public to know.
‘Mr. Strong objected to my ap-
pointment on the grounds that I
was not a member of the body. hav-
ing merely been elected an honor-
ary, or probationary member. Both
Col. Stothers and I are to he voted
on for regular memberships at the
December meeting. That this was
fa distinct surprise to me goes with-
out saying because’ I made a state-
ment to the directors Inst winter
saying that I would finance the
Washington Potomacs only on con
dition that I be admitted to the or-
ganization. _
‘They showed me the minutes of
the meeting on Saturday which
proved that I was merely an as+0-
ciate. Let _me state that T knew
nothing of this condition till then. I
have always voted at all mectinge,
hiv made motions atid have done
other things which only a. full-
fledged member of any group iz al-
owed to de. T told them last win-
‘tor that I woul lose money heavily
this year and that I was entering
with the expzctation of making back
my losses in the seasons to come.
‘To date I have spent over $12,000
on the Potomacs and have already
started to make plans for another
jgeason. | T have-leused a park in
Wilmington for two years anil am
negotiating with a Washington re-
altor for n location in thut city.
This I have done, thinking that-I
was a full member of the Eastern
Teague.
When Strong objected to mz an-
pointment \on the grounds that I
was not a member it was decided w
vote for the league representative
and Alex Pompex was.otfered as a
candidate. Now, despite the earlier
statement that T'eald not be Use le-
gal representative, these busines
men allowed my name to go on the
allot. .They did that becaure they
thought they had enough votes th»
win.” To their surpriso-I received
three votes and ‘tied Pompe. A
second ballot showed the same re-
sult. Before Mr. Bofden could cast
the deciding vote, he being chair-
man, Mr. Keenan jumped to his fect
and ‘said, “We'll ‘toss a penny, for
it. What, do you call, Pompez?”
Pompez said tails and when the
cent hit the tablo he called heads.
T had refused to say anything. Be-

jed: forthe Hampton-Ljncoln: game
which is to be played thig season in
Philadelphia, at th8 National leagie
park. This will-be Hampton's fizst
appearance onthe: gridiron in -the
Quaker City:’ However, the record
of the Hampton teams is well known
to thousands of football enthusisats
there, and already great interest
4s being-shown in the coming game
* the Hampton-Lincola basket. ball
xames in “Philadelphia are attend-
ed by the largest crowds that wit-
ness the indoor sport in that city.
These games are popular because
of the fine playing, good:-sportsman-
Ship, and the Aghting.spirit exhibit:
ed by both teams. Football games
between these two schools are al-
ways thrillers for the same reason.
The game scheduled this year is go-
ing to be an usually hard one, as
Lincoln, a favorite in, Philadelphia
ig making every effort to win from
Hampton in their first game there.
Hampton has a. strong Alumni Ag:
sociation in Philadelphia; and will
not be lacking for rooters. Already
definite arrangements’ have been
made with pagk officials to have all
gates manned “and opened in order
fo give the fans the. best possible
service. “Park ushers will be used
in the seating of the people. Ade-
uate police protection has Been pro-
vided, and everything is being done
to manage the game in an effjcient
manner.
“More and more the big football
games are occasions for great 80-
Cinl gatherings. ‘Those connected
with “the management of school
games are realizing the importance
of this feature; and provisions are
being made for the entertainment
and enjoyment of the teams. ‘The
Hampton Glee Club will ‘give a con-
cert’ in. Philadelphia, at <Traymore
Hali, Friday night, October 31.
) This will be followed by dancing
and will give the out-of-town visi-
tors‘a splendid entertainment.
‘On Saturday morning, the Hamp-
ton Alumpi are giving ‘a breakfast
dance, and in the evening after the
game, both Hampton and Lincoln
are holding a joint social affair and
dango ‘at the Pythian Hall. The
Hampton-Lincoin game in Philadel-
phia bids fair to be one of the
Breatest events of the coming’ sea-

EW UNIT CREATED TO AUDIT INTEREST ON GOVT. SECURITIES
WASHINGTON, D. C., Sept. 25—Hon. H. V. Speelman, register of the U. S. Treasury at Washington, D. C., has just created a new unit among the working force of his office, whose entire personnel is composed of colored Americans, including one supervisor and eleven clerks, who have been assigned to do high grade work in what is known as the Interest Coupon Audit Section. This is the first time in the history of the register's office that colored clerks have been assigned to the responsible task of auditing the interest paid on bonds, treasury certificates and other government securities, although Register Speelman has for sometime, had another colored
A very fitting selection has been made in the choice of a supervisor of this auditing unit in the person of Mr. Wm. H. Davis, an expert stenographer and bookkeeper, who for many years was employed as such by two national banks and a large trust company in his home town, Louisville, Ky.; later he came to Washington, entered the Government service; graduated from the medical department of Howard University (class 1902); for six years efficiently served as principal of the Business Nig. High School in Louisville, D.C.; while in the Bureau of Statistics, treasury department, made a general average of.100 per cent in a special civil service examination as statistical clerk, for sixteen years served as official stenographer of the National Negro Business League under Dr. Booker T. Washington's administration; and during the recent World War gave up a permanent position in the department of commerce to assist Dr. Emmett J. Scott, special assistant to the secretary of

Commission recently appointed by: President Coolidge, through the Department of Labor, for the purpose of investigating the economic and industrial conditions prevailing in those islands; as a newspaper correspondent and former editor of the "Roy. Standard" and "Washington Sentinel," and as secretary to many of our prominent race leaders, he is, widely and, favorably known throughout the country.
It is a great credit to the present administration that Mr. Speelman, register of the treasury, and a native of Ohio, has frequently shown in a definite and concrete way his friendly and sympathetic attitude toward colored Americans, by welcoming and approving the appointment of scores of them to clerical positions in his office. Only recently he appointed three colored men to the responsible positions of vault custodians, namely, Lieut. Jay W. Clifford, formerly of the 367th Infantry, Captain Robert P. Ray, formerly of the 9th U. S. Cavalry, and Mr. Ferdinand D. Lee, president of the Natal. Negro Memorial Association, the object of which is to erect a Memorial Building in honor of Negro sailors and soldiers.

Howard Carter Says King Tut Was "Perfect Lover"
LONDON, England, Sept 25—(By A. N. P.)—King Tut was the perfect lover, Howard Catter, co-discoverer of the tomb of Tut-Ank-Amen, declares. The Pharaoh's tomb contains numerous paintings of Tut's devotion for his wife, Carter says. One painting shows the Pharaoh caressing his wife's hand, another shows him bestowing affectionate glances on his consort.
Many of the paintings also testify to the devotion of his wife. In one of them she is shown whisking specks of dirt from Tut-Ank-Amen's clothes. "These were the days when men and women married for love," Carter says, "when they lived in love and died together." That part of the wedding ritual reading "with all my worldly goods I thee endow" came down to us from Tut's days, he says.

Religious Comments
On July 27 prayer was offered in a number of Connecticut churches for rain to save the tobacco crop. Theology does get a little complicated occasionally.
An investigation by the Department of Labor shows that more churches were built in 1922 than places of amusement in communities of 25,000 or more.
A Georgia legislator, who helped defeat a bill allowing districts to establish libraries says there are only three books in the world worth reading, the Bible, the hymn book and the almanac.
More than 8,000 delegates representing fifty-two nationalities and forty nations attended the World's Sunday School Convention at Glasgow, June 18-26. Scotland as the home of Presbyterianism would naturally be friendly to a Sunday School convention. The Scotch-made the delegates welcome with a heartiness and a Kindness it would be hard to equal. A Scottish noblewoman asked for the privilege of entertaining the Negro delegates in her home. The official greeting was no less warm. The Lord provost and corporation of Glasgow gave, a civic reception on the third evening of the convention in Glasgow's splendid art galleries.—The Continent.
Prize fighting is brutal, but it is financially profitable. Twelve million dollars were paid in New York last year to see trained brutes pound each other into a jelly. In the last great prize fight, which attracted the attention of the world, the fighters husted three and one-half minutes and $8,000 people looked on, having paid more than a million dollars for the uplifting and cultural experience. These contestants each received about $40,000 a minute for the time they were beating and bruising each other. While all this vast sum was being spent, there were millions of boys and girls in the cities where these fights were taking place, who were receiving no more religious culture than if they had lived in Africa. Fifty per cent of the churches of New York work on a budget of less than $4,000 a year. The money spent on one fight would have placed a Bible in the hands of every person on the globe who is without one.—The United Presbyterian.

—A. still, strong man in’ blatant

haired ‘major impressed us when we
‘were ushered into his office in the
Citizens and Southern Banking
Company's building: the frst time.
And acquaintance has but.strength-
ened our opinion of ‘this educator-
banker, who came to Philadelphia
four-years ago to chart a new course
on his map of life.” +
‘This old time southe: ntleman
came north, he told eS 20
many of his people gral
here foll.wing the war afd he felt
‘that his sphere of : usefulness to
tHem would be greater than’ the
service he could’ render those who
were Sensining. in ‘the homeland.
So to Philadelphia he.came and one
of his ‘first acts here was to or-
ghnize the Citizens':and Southern
Banking Company, ‘with offices at
19th and South streets. -
"That he had the right’ idea was
soon apparent. - Migrants from
Georgia, the Carolinas . and other
states found their way to his corner
and invested their savings with, him.
Now the major and his financial as-
sociates haye obtained a charter as
a trust company and will begin to
function’ as one shortly. Many thou-
sands of dollars have been spent in
remodeling their banking house and
it is today a model of beauty and
utility.- It nambers its depositors

The Colonel then approached the guard to try him out, only to hear the raucous shout of "Throw it to third" Commanding officer! Lieutenant Roy Morse, national outdoor titleholder of the 100-yard and 220-yard records, is working diligently with the athletes. Thus far, the baseball team has suffered but one失败. The Campeons Active Sergeant Larry Estridge of pugilistic fame, is assisting Lieutenant Morse with the boxers and each night excellent exhibitions are staged. Last Friday night Ted Lewis left for New York to meet the guard champion in that city. At camp, exhibitions were put on between Danny and Kid Rash, Battling Lee Cox and Kid Rash, Battling Rey Bennett and Kid Davis. The bishers adhered strictly to the regimental motto of "Dont tread on me."
Ray Bennet is Fresh from his trip to the South, where he finished off Battling Siki. The general idea prelailing here concerning Harry Wills' skills is to put that Harry is playing possum or ordinate Dempsey. Sergeant Marshall of Company H, constructed and erected a radio over which the entire command listened in on the fight. Among the track men here are Bill Sikely three-mile fame; Willy Asch, the 220 rider; Marshall, the cross-country. In the 1st Battalion, led by Major William Jackson, every officer and man is a Negro.

Miss Anita Thompson, Inez Richardson and Dr. Wilson Said to Have Been in Party Which Was "Dispossessed."
NEW YORK, Sept. 25. — New York's charming "doll baby!" Miss Anita. Thompson, is said to have gotten herself into a "pickle" over Labor Day week-end when, it is rumored, she was accompanied to Atlantic City by Mr. Frank Owens, of New York, California, in a car with Dr. Wiley M. Wilson and Miss Inez Richardson.
The story goes, as told by wagging tongues, that Miss Thompson was confronted by Miss. Adela Wake, Mrs. Thompson, said to be the fance of Mr. Owens, and was veritably "dispossessed" from the room that had been engaged for them. The time, it is claimed, was 3 a.m. A porch was engaged to have served as a haven of rest until the next morning.
To begin at the beginning of the

Let There Be Health
THE PRINCE OF WAILS
You grown-up! You get peevish yourself when you don't feel well, or when you are hungry and overtired. Everybody knows your trick of saving the news that you are "going out tonight with the fellows," until ATTEN the gas bill came today," until AFTER the meal. People are cheerful then, no matter what the news!
Don't blame the BABY when he cries. There is something wrong and ten chances to one it is: that he is not getting enough to eat. I talk on talks and I have entirely of food for adults. Now I want to say a word about the needs of babies and children.
The best food for wee sma' babies is the food Nature intended should be provided—mother's milk. I have not have this normal food, we would not he losing so many infants.
In a study made in 79 families, there were 85 children who were bottle-feed. At the end of 11 years there were 85 living and 67 percent of those who had been bottle-fed babies were dead.
'As the child grows older, his diet changes and certain articles of food can be added. The child needs enriched his activities, and for GROWTH he has a list of about 12 years of age needs almost as much food as you do, if you are a sedentary person—that is, from 1700 to 20000 calories a day. They also need the kind of foods which help their bones and muscles. Think of the demands of those GROWING bodies! If they do not get the materials they need, in order to go on building, they are going to be stunted, or deformed. Growth starts the moment life begins, and every AL supply of food provided. A grown-up can go without food for hours or a few days, without harmful results, but a CHILD AND A BABY MUST HAVE THE REAL FOOD EVERY TWENTY-FOUR HOURS AT REGULAR INTERVALS AND WITHOUT FAIL.
That precious bit of humanity—your baby—you love him so much that it hurts. Do you do everything that can be done to perfect his life? Make him a Prince of Smiles and not a Prince of Wails. GIVE HIM ENOUGH of the proper foods TO EAT!
Cubans Beat "Hicks"
NEW YORK, N. Y., Sept. 25. — The Cuban Stars defeated the Farmers by a score of-8-to-4 at Farmers' Oval in Glendale on Saturday. The Farmers hit Lopez hard and drove him out of the box as early as the second inning, but Lou Seaman, the little southpaw, was unable to hold the Cubans in冲.
on motor trip to Atlantic City over Labor Day week-end. The party left New York on their way. Then, it is alleged, Mine Park found out what had happened, and having been promised a trip to the same city with the same gentlemens on the same day, suspected where he would suggest, as a stopping place, and wired ahead and had all vacant rooms reserved for him. The first party arrived by motor late at night the amabil landlady, who was later horrified when she learned that Dr. Wilson was the husband of Mrs. A'Lella Walker Wilson, informed them that all of her rooms were reserved, but she didn't would come in before next day, so they might stop for the remainder of the night. But lo, a few hours later, in the. wee hours of the morning, in came Miss Parks and her party. She demanded the room, Owen's pleaded, but nothing doing. He only received an ice, menacing stare. Miss Thompson, it is said, tried to get chummy, but there was no humor in Miss Parks. So the first party of four got out and let the second party who did the witching out But Mr. Owens, instead of becoming cowed, it is rumored, still ignored Miss Parks.
Harlem tongues are wagging over the "society" proms who were "put out" in the wee hours of the morning.

For the past few weeks we have been listening to and reading arguments tending to convince voters that La Follette is a progressive, with certain ideals calculated to bring some new and hitherto unknown blessings to the common people of this country. Whatever else is said of La Follette, it can be said with some certainty that he and his candidacy enjoy the enthusiastic sympathy and support of the labor unions of this country. Indeed, Mr. Gompers has appeared as one of the most interested and sympathetic supporters of the La Follette cause. Negro voters have a few questions to ask Mr. La Follette and perhaps Mr. Gompers will be designated to answer them. For example, Negroes want to know of Mr. La Follette what is his attitude toward labor unions which refuse to admit Negroes. What bill or resolution, under the La Follette program, since he has been in the United States Senate, has he ever offered on the floor or in committee that committed him as openly to any subject akin to the problems of the American Negro as he has committed himself to labor, Socialism or even the Germans?
What has he ever said, as a Senator or as a private citizen, as laudatory of the American Negro as he said of the Germans and the World War in a recent address delivered in New York City?
What utterance has he ever made from which could be gathered any definite program of his, either as a Senator or as a President of the United States, calculated to better the present status of the American Negro?
These questions ought to be answered by Mr. La Follette If he expects his Negro lieutenants to have an "argument." He ought to assure every voter of a definite La Follette program dedicated to the improvement of every American citizen, rather than a program committing certain voters to a program as un-American as his proposal anent the Supreme Court.
Negroes do not need any special promises, except where they are the exclusive recipients of express and special injustices. What they demand more than ever is to be read into the administration of the laws rather than be read out of them. Labor unions read Negroes out of their organizations. La Follette and Gompers know this to be true; and yet they offer Negroes the empty statement that La Follette is the friend of labor.
Labor to La Follette does not include Negro labor. Gompers does not think in terms of Negroes when speaking of labor organizations. Surely, we are not going to listen to discriminating labor bosses who refuse to allow us membership in the great army of bread earners.
Now We Get It
It was no surprise to learn that the Senate investigation conducted by Mr. Wheeler, now candidate for Vice President on the La Follette ticket, has exploded. The star witness, Mr. Gaston B. Means, has repudiated his testimony given before the Senate Committee. This is significant in view of the fact, that Means now says that his testimony given to the committee was fixed to suit the demands of Prosecutor Wheeler. Means also asserts that he and the two sons of Mr. La Follette were together arranging the testimony to make it suit Mr. Wheeler. This man Means says that he has the real documents which, if perused, will prove that his testimony before the committee was all a lie.
Since Mr. Gaston B. Means has repudiated all his testimony before the committee, Mr. Wheeler says he expected Means to do it. This sounds like Mr. Wheeler knew Means was a liar at the time of the investigation.
At any rate, we have lived to see the whole La Follette campaign go to pieces before the people of the country because it has been admitted that the whole scheme was the product of the brain of Messrs. Wheeler, La Follette and Means. If Means is the liar he admits he is, then Wheeler and La Follette picked bad company, indeed, when they sought Means as the source of their information against Mr. Daugherty and the administration.
If Means was telling the truth at the time he testified before the committee, then his repudiation is the grossest lie. If he was telling lies before the committee, his confession now comes just in time to save the American people from the biggest deception known to man. Wheeler and La Follette have carried their campaign to the people on the plea that the American people have been victims of corruption committed by the Harding administration. They used this Gaston B. Means to "prove" the corruption. Now Means denies his whole story. He says he lied all the way through. The people are saved from Wheeler and La Follette.
Mr. John W. Davis will have to find other campaign argument, since Means says there is not a word of truth in his testimony before the Senate Committee. After all, the quiet and steady Coolidge seems to be the only untarnished American now before the voters.

THE NEGRO FROM AFRICA TO AMERICA by W. D. Weatherford. Published by the George H. Doran Company, 244 Madison avenue, New York. 450 pages, price $5.00. Postage 10 cents extra.
THERE have been so many books upon the Negro in Africa and America, that one scans critically the advent of a new one. What does it stand for? What has it to say that has not been said ready? One can answer regurgitated. The advance of the black's opinion of the advance guard among the enlightened South today, and that while it does not say much that is new it gathers together a great deal of material. The first half deals with the Negro in Africa and the slave trade. The second half with the Negro today in his various relations to the life of the country. It is a source book rather than an original treatise, more than half the closely printed pages being in question. The writer has 450 pages already has written his material cleverly together ending each chapter with a short, well-balanced opinion of his own.
When one remembers the impassioned diribes of Smith in his "Color-Line"; the white-washed studies of Stone, plantation lord of Mississippi; even the pleading garden of Gardner; the one doubled by the South in its defense Dr. Weatherford and sees a portion of the South has travelled in the new century. We are shown the hideousness of the slave trade and of slavery. We read quotations from Fannie Kemble and Olgstand as often as from Smeeds. And when we read the stories of the horrors of lynching and the utterly inadequate provisions for colored children in the public schools.
The book is lacking in some ways. It omits the reconstruction period where we should have welcomed the new material that could so easily be found today but that with the death of the men who participated in the reconstruction period, the biosis by its omissions. Half the book is on present day conditions, health, housing, business, education, legal status. To give up whole chapters to the Economic Condition of the Negro with but one mention of the Urban League, and the Negro and the Law without naming the N. A. A. C. P. was really an achievement. The book is not a book of the founding of Hampton and Tuskegee are cited, not a word is said of the founding of the colleges, Atlanta, Falla, Talladega. The wonderful beinnings of Negro education by Northern philanthropists are ignored. But since the material quoted by Dr. Weatherford is often written or compiled by workers in these organizations, one is less likely to be interested in the view of Sources, the last chapter of the book, a scholarly statement is made regarding each of the one-hundred odd volumes, representing every shade of opinion, from which the book is made up. Especially the gathing of information regarding the Religious Life of the Negro and Education is an achievement. One gets for the Negro a sense of the present and work of the various religious denominations and a summarising of the situation of Negro education, public and private. One is truly thankful for the description of the functions of the various funds, General
wald, and lastly, one is grateful for the capitalizing of the word "Negro."

THE FIRE IN THE FLINT, by Walter F. White. Published by Alfred A. Knopf, 730 Fifth avenue, New York. A story of racial conditions in Georgia by a Georgian. 300 pages. Price $2.50.
WALTER WHITE, a transplanted Georgian, has a story to tell of his native state and of the injustice therag and he tells it simply and with no outward flourishes. Brutal deeds are recited in a matter-of-fact way and the shock to the sensibilities is absorbed by the cushions of horror made by the action.
Kenneth Harper is a native of Central City who has returned there to practice medicine after nine years in the north and the army, the health and feels, with his white companion, Roy Ewing, that "the time is not ripe" to take a militant stand against oppression. But circumstances and "the girl" force his hand and he actively engages in organizing Negro farmers in a movement to combat the share-robbers. He thus earns the emmity of the K. K. K. the deeds of which are deserved. He catches the antilands fleece their more or less ignorant tennant farmers and one is reminded of John Williams and his murder farm.
The enmessing arms of the octopus in the rural south strangle the courts and the press. Among the officers of the Central City Klan are the sheriff, the commissioner of health and the local editor who is also the Associated Press correspondent. Whenever a lynching occurs it is thus for the usual crime and the victim always is said to have confessed.
A younger brother, Bob, "prepping" for Harvard, treads the stage briefly and tragically. The "white man's nigger" is described as the white child of the white widow, the evils of the south. Poor whites" and our fortunates are given some attention. And the upper-white-"The men self made. The women concerned only with their household affairs. But, beyond these, life was and is a closed book. Qr more, a book that never was written or printed." Dr. Harper is always being advised to do just like his daddy did. "He was a good nigger and did not have any of them no' then ideas."
The white men who would like to sympathize with and help the Negro are afraid because "it wouldain't be a nigger would be trapped by all other folks in town and it wouldn't be long before they would be calling me a 'nigger-lover'. No, sir-zee' I'll just let things rock along and let well enough alone."
A swiftly moving story told by one whose supply of adjectives and phrases seem limited. A thread of love drab and weak in the telling. A message of bitter terrible truth spread naked across the pages to the one possible, horrible ending. (Browned by Dr. W. Belle Wilson.)

THE DRAMA OPENS
HARRIS WRITES
By Floyd J. Calvin
Copyright, 1924, by Pittsburgh County Public
EMINENT scholars, diplomats, editors, army and navy men on many lands have for a third time met at the unique William Conference at Williams College, Mass., under the direction of Harry A. Garfield, son of an assassinated President. There they ad ideas, theories, and threedimensional out world problems at a table of experts. They tackled problems of peace and war, problem national policy and international concern.
This year Oswald Garrison Villard, editor of The Nation, attacked own country for its continuing to exploit Haiti. The reaction of circles was hostile and apologetic. The attack may prove helpful in ding the black republic of its severest handicap.
Bernard M. Baruch, through whose generosity the conference was lowed to experiment three years, has authorized it to continue. It is that more good will result from this annual exchange of ideas and elms by thinkers in their respective fields.
A READER writes the New York Herald-Tribune as follows: Ha in mind that founding of a city of a million colored people in Southern California, I submit the following observations: Is the colored race entirely capable of self-government? Would the colored race degenerate into savage if it was trapped and officered a city of a million people from which all other were excluded?
Such a city will in all likelihood be tried out either in Southern formia or along the Rio Grande in Texas. The experiment will be to refute the claim so often made by white men in the South that Negro is not fit to govern himself.
JOE JOHNSON, Memphis, Tennessee. Sept. 17, 1924.
True to Southern tradition this letter smacks of segregation and aiding from the Negro "problem." Although on its face the position seems liberal and philanthropic, it is essentially an effort to rid" of the black brother rather than a sincere effort to give him a with the reignia of government. (If he made good he would not be to come back and help the white South rule the South, but it would be argued that since he was doing well, why not remain where he is.
Instead of turning the whole municipal management over to Negro in Southern California, why not allow Negroes to be elected to one Memphis. Only a few would be elected at best, and there would be white people left to see that they "behaved themselves." That would the proper thing to do, according to the Constitution, and in the meantime the whites could watch closely and see whether the Negroes could minister the offices without going to the expense of sending a million California. It would be cheaper, and we venture to remark, the Neg would like it better.
ONE of the salient points in the La Follette philosophy is his on the United States Supreme Court. The senator from Wise would have it so that the "nine old men" could not nullify adoption by Congress. He sees in the practice the throttling of people's will.
As it is at present constituted, the men on the Supreme Bench are afraid of their jobs. They are responsible to no particular party, they are free to decide any question in the light of their wide learning and accordance with what their conscience tells them is right. This consists an independent judicially—one of the proud achievements of the American system of government:
But the La Follette idea would make the highest tribunal subservient to Congress—sometimes a "knee-yed" Congress. And beyond that would be subservient to the party in control in Congress. So that the Democrat held the upper hand, and a segregation case came up from a tuck, where would the Negro stand? But in the present arrangement Negro stands about as high as any other citizen before that body, that reason we are content to let "well enough" alone.
THERE is much discussion, pro and con, over whether Jack Dean should face Harry Wills as his next opponent. Grantland Elastic authority, has this to say:
"Regardless of the Wills-Firpo crash, it is fairly evident that remains the champion's main challenger, until some one else beats Wills.
"Dempsey, in meeting any one else, would face an anti-climax either Wills must meet Dempsey in his next fight, or some one must Wills to have this shot at fame.
"There is no question but that a Dempsey-Wills fight now would bigger card than a meeting, between Dempsey and some one else. A will remain so, unless some one else beats Wills."
Public sentiment, we believe, is generally favorable to the Dempsey Wills match. It would be cruel indeed not to allow Harry a chance to title.
"FORTE-EIGHT plays invite you to Broadway." The drama is one of great importance in New York, is open. From now on end of next May theater fans will decide the fate of plays and makeers, via the boxoffice.
The theater is a fine place to spend an evening. Its cultural tages are second only to its amusement leamns. One who has the tunity and can afford it should go often to see a good play.
AVERY careful, thoughtful and intelligent study of Negro men appears in the September Current History Magazine, by Abby Harris, Jr., instructor in Economics at West Virginia College. The writer goes into the real basic reasons for the skills in lation and marshals facts and figures to substantiate his claim.
Mr. Harris is a young man who shows much promise in the scientific thought and discussion. The race truly needs more young like him.
SOUIBS
We could a tale unfold about our Alice and that Cool at La Follette headquarters, but Davis and La Follette are doomed to defeat—so why embarrass the records.
We have discovered that some Negro editors can fervently for Democrats as they can for themselves. The Negro donating a loving cup to Davis for his "servers' race." Jim Crow cars in West Virginia and Disfranchisers are two of the Davis planks offered in the West Virginia convention. This is some of the service the Davis family dered the race—for a loving cup in Missouri.
If the campaign goes very much longer, a few Negro know will be in a fist fight. The brother takes his path tirely too hard. He must fight for his white candidate, or not a real leader of the race.
