IME AND THE HOUR
Copyright 1822 by Kelly Miller. Washington, D. C., Sept. 22, 1922. The Emancipation Proclamation issued September 22, 1862, to take the forcible slaves into the field at the dike of the autumn equinox marked the transition of the North from bondage to freedom. Wells selects the great Emancipation as one of the six great names human history. The Church of the cession of New York City has lived in that structure the status of illustrious names which have contributed most to the progress of Christianity during each of the intervening hundred years of Christian history. Abraham Lincoln was chosen by the Emancipation Proclamation presents crowning act of his life. When all we have been forgotten, this document will survive with the eternal sinness of perennial youth.

UNDERTAKERS ARE HELD ON DISTURBANCE CHARGE
UNDERTAKERS ARE HELD ON DISTURBANCE CHARGE
General Fight Follows. Controversy Over Dead Body At City Hos-
past last Friday.
* As a result of a general disturbance and fight at City Hospital No. 2, O. J. Watson and C. L. Howell, his partner in the undertaking business are under $1000 bond each to answer charges of assault and destruction of property.
The trouble was started, according to a statement from Dr. Haskell, the Superintendent, after Watson and Howell had brought a Mrs. R. G. Pardee to the hospital to claim the blow of her mother, Mrs. Emma King who had died a short while before, it being their intention of handling the funeral services. Upon arrival at the hospital and being informed of the death of her mother, Mrs. Pardee inquired why the undertaker was notified of the death before she was, and Dr. Haskell told her that no news of the death of her mother had been given out, whereupon she stated that she did not know Watson and Howell and did not want their service in the hospital, but she knew that Watson, Spelman to bury her, Upon being informed that Spelman's service could not be had she suggested Russell Undertake Co.
Dr. Haskell says he did not even suggest an undertaker nor did he suggest anything against Watson and Howell, but he could say however, that Messrs. Watson and Howell had approached most of the employees at the hospital with a bribe for "first information."
Ole L. Watson says that Dr. Haskell had not been fair to them and that it was after the doctor had struck Howell that they both dragged him from the office and beat him with the police knife that he was killed. Now Dr. Haskell says that Watson will be called upon when asked how she got the information about Mrs. Watson, he said a telephone call. Mrs. Haskell said that Watson and Howell cried to her home after she had been notified by the police that she was wanted at the hospital.

CRIT CLARK AGAIN WINS NOMINATION
McChesney Fails Before The State Supreme Court To Keep Colored Man's Name Off The Ballot.
INCUMBENT HARD LOSER
This Is Fourth Victory For Clark In His Fight For Justice Of The Peace In Fourth St. Louis Dist.
"I told you I was not worried over court proceedings instituted by Harry McChesney to keep the Election Commissioners from putting my name on the ballot," was the comment of Crittenden E. Clark, when informed of the decision of the Supreme Court deciding that Crittenden E. Clark, the Commissioners from printing Clark's name on the ballot to be vote upon at the November election, and Insert his name instead.
It will be remembered that McChesney was one of Clark's opponents in the primary for the nomination for Justice of the Peace in the Fourth District but was defeated on the face of it. McChesney was granted a recount of the ballots, which resulted in a gain for Clark almost of the products.
Applies to Courts.
Finding: himself defeated, McChesney appealed to the Election Commissioners, charging that Clark was no resident of the district and that he withstanding the fact that he (Clark) had been nominated by the voters of the district, he was not entitled to the office. In the election Board rule against McChesney, who in turn appeal to the Supreme Court, in citation, the case, the Court held that McChesney had no case inasmuch as the voters had made their choice. Mr. Clark said he was at ease now as the case had been decided in the court of last court. He stated that he had taken no chances in the litigation, but had employed the best legal talent in the state to look after his interest.
ANNUAL SERMON FOR PEERLESS KNIGHTS
The annual sermon of the Othelli
Lodge, Peerless, Knights will be held
Sunday, Oct, 1st, 11 o'clock, at Compton
Hill Baptist Church, Rev. H. H.
Harris, pastor. The public is invited.
S. R. Nelson master of ceremonies.
According to a report of his attorneys, Martin and Jones, the controversy between Elmer J. Carter and the so-called Kennery Ave. improvement Association where the latter sought to prevent Carter from moving into a flat purchased by him on Kennery Ave. has been settled out of Court.
The Association had filed a suit to enjoin Carter from moving into the flat on the ground that the block was restricted against Colored people, the attorney for the defendant filed their return in the matter, the attorney for the plaintiffs saw he had no case and dismissed the case, and the keys have been turned over to the owner, Elmer J. Carter.
The case attracted a deal of attention, and the victory on the part of Carter is regarded as a victory for the race, because many of the so-called Protective Association have sprung up in different parts of the city.

DYER BILL IS DESERTED BY U. S. SENATE
Upper House Of Congress Adjourns After Measure Is Introduced And Democrats Threaten. LOOKS LIKE CASE OF POLITICAL TRICKERY
Associated Negro Press
WASHINGTON, J. C. Sept. 27. There isn't any doubt the dawned *Dear Bill* is as dead as an Egyptian Mumuyu at least, so far as this session of Congress is concerned. It looks as though the "Bomb Bill" has also literally taken on the role of another legislative gossip to the extent this *Godsend* to the already tired and over loaded statesmen at the other end" of the avenue no one can positively tell at this time. Quite enough it is to know that the air is murky with misgivings and that even the wise ones are completely at sea as to the offenses of infiltrating the election that takes on the congressional election results in November.
That the colored, beheaded fire and torched the very heart and the "Kitchen Cabinet" literally in the air goes and then goes some more. "What shall we do about it?" come thick and fast from every quarter of the sections of this old town where the colored patriots are wont to congregate and live in a district where a Republican has fairly chance to be elected are probably fugible and foolish. Most everyone of influence agrees to that. But what to do and what to say are burning questions of State and momentary matters of general controversy. Once ears fairly ring to extreme discount from the clutter and the puff of the whole dung thing.
"A Bunch Of "Politics"
It is true that Senator Shortridge kept his word and introduced the measure in the Senate last Friday afternoon. "Par" Harrison, and Senator Underwood immediately started the threatened billstuffer that he had been the Republican side for the several weeks. Thus the Republican faith has been kept up to this point. But there is other fact that the bill was brought up at a time when the billbuffer tactics threatened by the Democrats had a good chance to work to the end of possibly killing it beyond the probability of its return to life even at the next session. Looked at from an imminent perspective, the Republican has the unpleasant aspects of "politics" and a bunch of it. Any way this is the feeling of a more than good number of the beheaded here in Washington at any rate.
Not Enough Action
"They have truly rolled us around a biggr, declared one of the knowing ones附着ed for an opinion on the situation. "Speaking for myself, he continued, "I am standing on my head. As I see if we are tied hand, foot, and arms. We talk too much. They haven't called our bluff because we haven't made any. We were too cock sure that the measure would be passed at this session and we have been working on the efforts of professional agitators in this and other matters in recent years. Aside from the rather strong talk the Chairman of the Press Association's Committee delivered to Senator Lodge during its very memorable visit to the distinguished senatorial representative from Massachusetts, there hasn't anything been said that I can recall at this time that has thesemblance of a multi-person we will have to wait multi-person we will have to wait show, our hands concerning attitude on matters political. A third party might solve the problem for us, but who knows now?"
They are all dressed up and nowhere to go. A really sad situation everybody is saying. Particularly sad for the "Kitchen Cabinet" whatever of misty joy it may be being to the other fellows in the small offices and out along the spacious highways of this city of magnificent distances and heartbreaking disillusionments. The optimistic are declaring that it will be bright the next session. The possessive say to h-1 with the whole business. And there we are standing between the dwell and a very blue sea.
DEMOCRATS ALARMED OVER LARGENEGROVOTE

MASKED MEN KILL A NEGRO IN ABILENE, TEX.
MASKED MEN KILL A NEGRO IN ABILENE, TEX.
No Cause Known For Murder Of Man
With Reputation Of Being Hard-
Worker And Harmless.
ABILENE, Tex. Sept. 27.—A search-
ing investigation of the killing her-
shortly before midnight Sept. 9th of
Gover C. Everett, in a local hotel was
ordered by Judge W. R. Ely in a speci-
charge to the Taylor county grand
jury last Thursday.
After declaring that all he knew
of the murder was from newspaper re-
sponses, Judge C. Everett was killed
in Negro rooming house in
this city. A street contractor told me
that he had known Everett for eleven
years and that he was a hard working
Negro and harmless. From what I
gather from newspapers reports the
man had retired early and about mid-
night he was killed. I notice in the
papers that Negro witnesses resisted
that three or four masked men came
to the hotel, went upstairs, a shot wart-
red, the masked men came down, and
the man was found dead.
"I will be frank and honest with
you, the man who shot Everett is guilty
of murder and should be punished.
It is a bad blot on your town when
men go out and wantonly kill in this
way.
"There has not occurred a crime since
I have been on the bench so grave and one that deserves such earnest attention as this. I am blaming no man or woman on this crime. I do not know who did the killing.
District Attorney Cunningham who
has conducted an investigation of the
affair, issued an appeal to all citizens
who know anything of the murder or
who might throw any light on it, to
give the grand jury the facts.
NEW ORLEANS, La. Sept. 27—Two stitches were taken in the heart of Chiae Scott, 19 year old Negro, Tuesday night at charity Hospital. This was the second time in the history of the institution that such an operation has been performed by Andrew Kenny, the wound being three-quarters of an inch long and entered the cavity of the heart. The operation was performed by Dr. Peter Graffman, acting superintendent of the hospital and required 15 minutes.
Say, Republican Party In Missouri Is Weak And The Negro Vote Is Its Only Hope For Success. Want Race Men And Women To Think For Themselves. An Important Factor In Coming Election.
Jefferson City, Mo. Sept. 27. That the Democrats are worried over the success of the Republican party of this state is shown by a news item which appeared in Daily Democrat-Tribune last Monday.
The article has caused a deal of comment in political circles here, and while obviously it aimed to point out the weakness of the state, yet it points out very plainly the strength of the colored man in a political way.
The article is as follows: "How absolutely necessary it is for every Democratic man and woman in Missouri to vote at the coming election is shown by the fact that there are 53,525 men and 57,768 women in the state who will not overcome this important function November 5 next. The negro vote consist of 53,525 men and 57,768 women. Failure at the 1920 election of fully 100,000 Democratic women to vote and the fact that at least 55,000 colored men then did exercise that privilege over the blacks in Missouri over the years is clear if Democratic women fail to take an active part in the coming election.
In St. Louis there now are 26,151 negro males and 24,200 females 25 years old and over, a total of 60,251 entitled to vote at the coming election. This means that with the negro vote eliminated it would constantly be an even break between the Republican and Democrats there at every election if all white electors, regardless of the state they are in, give the Republicans their lead in city normal conditions. With the negro deducted, Missouri would always be Democratic by from 60,000 to 100,000.
There is, however, evidence in St. Louis and elsewhere in Missouri that the negro voters will not solidly agree with the Republican elector. From information which comes from centers where black men and women predominate, fully 20,000 are determined to vote Democratic from Senator James A. Read. He way down the line, to emphatically indicate to "go" leaders it stresses that they are weary of being Democratic solids to vote for the Republican elector. White purists brothers, and only one member when appointments are made with mental positions such as
"On primary, had there been a niger in Missouri during enough to contest for United States Senator on the Republican ticket and all of his black brothers and sisters has supported him, he would have won the nomination over R. R. Brewster of Kansas City, the nominee, the not less than 30,000. Next time, six or seven Republicans entered the senatorial contestScene négro will ubiquitously set into the mace at the last moment and, with the aid of the votes of 129,000 colored electors, both senators, in the state, pull down the heavy glory of being the 'gop' senatorial gladiator. The constitution of the state requires the black race and nothing could be done legally to curb the aspiration of such an ambitious, high-scoring Ethiopian. Brewster received 9,528 votes at the recent primary. With 129,000 voting for a member of their race, it is at once plain what would have happened a black man filed for the 'gop' honor.

Missouri Is Weak And The Negro For Success. Want Race Men For Themselves. An Important on.
In, St. Louis there now are 26,191
negro males and 24,200 females 25
years old and over, a total of 60,311
certified to vote at the coming election.
This means that with the negro vote
eliminated it would constantly be an
even break between the Republicans
and Democrats there at every elec-
tion. The Republicans, regardless of
sex, voted. It is the negro vote which
gives the Republicans their lead in
that city under normal conditions.
With the negro deducted, Missouri
would always be Democratic by from
10,000 to 100,000.
There is, however, evidence in St.
Louis and elsewhere in Missouri that
the negro voters will not solidly an-
nounce their vote. From information which con-
tains centers where black men and
women predominate, fully 20,000 are
determined to vote Democratic this
time from Senator James A. Read. He
way down the line, to emphatically indicate to "go" leaders and

negro publics solely to vote for a

third purist brother of Senator James A. Read.

Nevro Vote of Kansas City, Kansas City has 25,112 non-white and women 25 years old and over, this is half of the Kansas City population. The necro vote of the state represents one-fifth of the Republic's voting strength of Missouri. Therefore, it is figured out by leaving a well-informed negres that their race is entitled to a fifth of all the three races in Missouri. Federal and state which are at the disposal of the new governor are elected. As election draws near it is plausibly more evidence that fully (60,000 former Republican men and women will vote Democratie at the coming election). If the Democraties turn out suddenly on November 7 every close couple in the state will be Democratie. For example, Franklin, St. Louis, Gassonade, Warren, Perry and a few in the Ozarks, will return only half of the plurality they did in days when conditions were better for the gops.
EASTERN GATE AT THE ODEON
Plans Being Perfected For A Most Spectacular Performance. Hard Practice For Last Round. Entire Cast In Action.
An annual amount of interest is being manifested on the part of the public of the approaching play, "The Eastern Gate," which is to be gived at the Odeon, Thursday and Friday evenings, Oct. 12 and 13th.
The management positively guarantees this play to be the most spectacular production ever given by Negro artists anywhere in the country. Practice has begun.
The complete play, "The Eastern Gate," including the sixteen Childe children, the "Wedding chorus," consumers and members of the property committee will give the first rehearsal of the mammoth oriental production at the Odeon this Saturday night. Three other rehearsals will be given before the big show comes off.
Mr. J. Gerald Tyler has written a beautiful oriental song in which Mrs. Zelle Cole Evans, assisted by the "Wedding Chorus," will have an unusual opportunity for her mellifluent voice. Mrs. Myrtle Adams of professional stage experience, will act the part of "Moy," the piquant little Chihuahua. The sixteen little members of the Chinese chorus who will assemble at the wedding have been specially trained by Miss Anita Williams, who has had special training in dancing with the New York City sumo. Miss Williams will serve part of "Dottee Su" while Miss Liesa L Mosby and Hailie Tuti will render "Pottee Su" and "Knotoe Yang." "Black E He" offers Miss Doris James a special chance to captivate the audience with an unusual dramatic character.
Miss Anna Cooper and Adolph Angels, who starred in "Broken Baru," will show to better advantage this year in their skit. Ernest Hutchinson "G-Wanz," the coolie, plays a most difficult part this year with unusual passage and disguity.
Special oriental scenery has been painted for "The Eastern Gate." The entire setting of this production is the New York City sumo arena and Harry McCarthy musical made discover, providing the audience for both evening performances above. Ever given anywhere in this country.

Mr. John J. Doyle.
Dear Sir:
I worked in the wash-room of a steam laundry, my feet were wet at all times, and I contracted a very heavy cold that settled on my chest and lungs. I lost weight and strength rapidly and coughed all the time I grew very weak from night sweats.
My mother bought a bottle of Doyle's Tonic. After using it I felt much-better and an gaining in weight. I feel that I was able to work again.
My Dear Mr. Dayle;
May 5, 1922 was the day the doctor
called and said I would withpe
pneumonia and my case went on
because of a weak heart. This doctor
and another doctor refused me any
stimulant to keep up my strength on
account of my heart condition.
I instead of this needed stimulant
and better than any stimulant, a friend
gave me my tonic. The tonic pres-
erved my strength, up to the day of
the crisis. After the crisis, I kept on
taking bottle after bottle of tonic
if I returned to my old job at Scullin's

ENTERTAINING VAUDRIVILLE AT
BOOKER WASHINGTON THEATRE
Frank Tauzel bucks the vanderville program in a rush at the Booker Washington Theatre this week. He takes the house by storm and then puts over a parody and an eccentric daned. His monologue is full of fun and his song and dance finale is a good climax.
Bruce and Skinner are second with an excellent singing act. Madam Beatrice Bruce is featured in "I'll Forget You" and "He May Be Your Man But He Quilts To See Me Sometimes". Mr. Skinner sings "Love Will Find A Way". As a duett: "Leave Me With a Smile" is especially commendable. Good singing voices that blend harmoniously make this a very pleasing combination.
La Joy and La Joy, the Jow and the Maid is a talented team. Mr. La Joy is one of the best characters impersonators on the stage. His works is so typically exact that one can hardly realize he is not in truth the character he depicts. Their opening is a sketch on the trials of a landlord and a tenant. Its brimming full of real humor. Mr. La Joy scores a hit with his dog song and the lady songs and dances herself into the favor of the audience. The team closes strong.
Sparrow and Sparrow close the show.
Bennie Sparrow, the male member of this *team*, is an old. St. Louis boy and lays claim to being the first local son to put on vanville here. This was in 1905 during the days of Preston's theatre. He left St. Louis in 1906 and his engagement this week is the first in sixteen years. He is a finished comedian and is scoring a big hit with a lively song and dance, followed with bark-like pathos. Mr. Sparrow then sing and does an eccentric dance that his funny bone. The female member scores a hit with "Steffling" and a good dance. The cycle of blue dancing, by the team at the end, leaves the house screaming.
VEILED PROPHET WILL BE AT,
JAZZLAND TUESDAY NIGHT
The Fourth, Annual Velvet Prophet Ball will be given at Jazzfest next Tuesday night October 3. His mysterious honor. The Prophet will be the guest in the assemblage and adore the Queen and six maids who will rule over the spirit of joyfulness during the cunning year.
The identity of the Prophet will remain a secret until the ceremonies which precede the Grand Ball.
NEXT WEEK AT THE B. W.
Another good vaudeville program has been booked for the Boker Washington Theatre next week. On the bill will be Esther Bigean the talent of singing soubriata; "Ollie" Young with an entertaining novelty; Bell and Bell; and Rhodes and Jenkins two crack-a-jack doubles. Monday will be "Pay Day" for the patrons, when every one entering the theatre will receive an envelope containing some sum of money from 1c to $5. Trading stamps to $40 in value or passes. Tuesday nights first show will start just after the Velled Propet Parade passes the doors.
THE PICTURE THEATRES
"Always The Woman," The Sheik of Araby "And Don't Doubt Your Wife." At Star Bettie Compson in "Always The Woman" will be the feature at the Star Theatre this Saturday. It is a throbbing, pulsating picturequeen of romance, with heroes and villains of various kinds, and races. Its settings are unusual and picture-size and afford a background to the rapid action which is always pleasing to the eye.
On Sunday, H. B. Warner will be seen in "The Sheik of Aratry." The production depicts in vivid drama the sweep of the sands the color and pic turesquefulness of the desert domains. It is loaded with gripping action and glowing romance. It is generally reported to be one of the best of all, the Sheik stories, the popularity of which among readers of fiction show lovers of the photoplay has gripped the civilized world.
A Double program including "Mr. Barnes of New York" and "Let Katy Do It" will be offered on Veilied Prophet day and night.
On Thursday and Friday, Leah Baird will be seen in "Don't Doubt Your Wife." It is a domestic drama, an original story by Miss Baird in which she plays the role of a wife who to be happy needs to play. Edward Ped is the husband, a self-made business man who loves his wife, but neglects to tell her so. Emory Johnson is the rich young idiot who never could understand why she had not chosen him for her husband. A wonderfully staged night rainstorm adds thrills and complications to the plot.
"Home Talent." "The Prodigal Judge"
"Bits Of Life" And "Blood And
Sand" At The Comet
The Comet Theatre offers a double bill at bargain prices this Sunday. Charles Jones will be present in "Trooper O'Neil," a thrilling westerne with plenty of gum excitement. The other feature will be, Mack Sennett's five-part comedy, "Home-Talent." Ben Turpin, Charlie Murray, James Finlayson, "Boot," Parkley Eddie Griffon, Kaila, Pasha and Mildred. June are some of the principal contributors to the fun while Phillips Haver plays a part that demands the expressiveness of legitimate art.
On Monday, "The feature will be" The Prodigal Judge. The story deals with the old South, the South of 1855, when slavery and corn whiskey were still permitted by the Constitution. The cast is headed by Jean Paige, of Tuesday, V. T. Pay, Wesley Barry and Lon Chaney will be presented in "Bits of Life." It is a decided poverty in the way of motion picture entertainment, inasmuch as it presents four separate and distinct stories, which are combined in such a way that the ame trung dramatic theme runs through the entire produc-
If you had to choose between riches and cafes on one hand, and a flat fireside and delicatessen meals on the other, which would you decide upon?

"The Song Of Life," "The Sea Lion"
And "Diveyee Compans."
Jestamere
The feature at the Jestername Theatre in Sunday and Monday will be, "The Song of Life." The plot centers around a white-haired woman, who years after he has parted from home and husband because of her hatred for housework, finds her own son's wife displacing the same homely tasks which brought unhappiness into her own life. The young wife obtains outside employment so that she may earn money to pay the elderly woman to do the housework. As a result of this change the husband becomes jealous of an other man. A dramatic climax takes place in which mother-love brings happiness out of chaos. Gaston Glass is seen in the leading male role as the husband and Grace Darmond as the frivolous wife.
On Wednesday and Thursday, Hobart Boworth will be seen in "The Sea Lion." It shows Rosworth in the role of Nels Nelson, iron ruler of "The Lair," a whaler that has become noorious for its discipline.

Margaret Seldon, Lewis Shrigntail Holmquist and Fred C. Thompson have the leading roles in "Just around the Corner," a Paramount picture which comes to the Olympic theatre on this Saturday.

It is a fast-moving tale of the turf replete with adventure and romance and the full of action as the big racing scene with which it ends. An aeronaut also plays an important part in the story, carrying Bobbie swiftly to the side of her wounded brother in a hospital from where she makes her fiery dash by motor to the race track just in time for the big event. The racing scene of course has the big excitement of remarkable ability to detail. Charity is presented in "Gas, Oil and Water" on Thursday. It is a mixture of comedy and drama dealing with secret service work along the Mexican border. The star gives his unimaginable mannerisms as the sleuth who conceals his identity in the management of a one-horse town garage.
"The Sheik of Araby" "BarbWir" and "The Fatal Marriage" At The Casino
"The Sheik of Araby" will be the feature at the Casino Theatre this Saturday. The picture is filled with thrills too numerous to mention. II. Warner, the distinguished star of and screen appears as the Sheik about the best that ever was written—and the picture brings to life all the characters, and vivid atmosphere of the tremendously popular melody. Barburn Casleon and Wedgewood Nowell appear in support of Mr. Warner.
Jack Hoxie will be presented in "Harb-Wire" on Sunday. It's a typical Hoxie sketcher with a new real surprise for the movie fans.
"Next Wednesday, Lillian Gish and Wallace Reid will be presented in 'The Fatal Marriage.' It is the story of 'Enoch Arden' by Tennison. The Shirleyreek, after which Enoch becomes a mistress for many years on the uncharted coast, thought to be dead by his wife, has been produced by D. W. Griffith with his customary attention to detail. The final plunge of the big ship beneath the waves is a scene of tremendous drama. The home-coming of Enoch who returns to his old town with face almost hidden with a beard, only to find his sweet-faced little wife welded on an old suitor, played by Wallace Reid, is an episode of powerful heart appeal. Thr-are often keenly interesting situations. The wedding of Annie, who supposes she is a widow, and his Phillip, who has loved in its mingling of joy and tragedy.
**Bought And Paid For.** "Beyond The Rocks" and "Foods First"

The plot remains some unpleasant twists, and is extremely absorbing.
"The Delicious Little Devil" And "One Clear Call" At Criterion
Mae Murray will be presented in "The Delicious Little Devil" at the Gileron Theatre This Saturday. It is a story of a girl of the slums who becomes a dancer in a fast-carved solely on the strength of a lurid pair of a famer:Parisian dancer whom she impersonates. She is called upon to live up to this reputation, but succeeds in putting off the discovery of the fact that she is only playing a part until the lower of the real Parisian drops on the scene. She is rescued by a young chap who is mildly in love with her. This role is played by Rodolph Valentino, who does excellent work in a very difficult part. That happens when a dude about to express his admiration meets to accept his advances, makes this one of Rodolph's all features.
Henry B. Walthall, Clarke Windsor and others, will be presented in "One Clear Call" on Sunday. The plot of the photograpy is laid in a small town in Alabama, where two men of strangely contrasting nature are in love with the same woman, who in turn is in love with one of the men, but married to the other. With this atmosphere of gentility and breeding it combines every element of enchanting screen interest. Romance, puzzles, comedy and suspense jumble together in a plot that involves an unpleasant triangle and rings with the preservation of two men and a tradition on the part of the couple loved by the couple, whose dose of duty and marital obligations

Ban On Mixed Bouts In New York State About Lifted
Special To The Argus—
NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 27—The fact that Danny Edwards, the colored bantamweight from the Pacific coast, has been matched to fight Irish Johnny Curtin at the Pioneer Athletic Club soon has created an interesting stir in boxing circles here. Many students of the game are excited by the blinding of the inefficient ban against mixed bouts in New York state, and to this fact they are inclined to attach far reaching significance.
For while there has been no opposition to mixed matches in New York, expressed in so many wards, the actions of the entire boxing commission have led close followers of the sport to believe that no mixed bouts would be sanctioned. Indeed. It appeared that the commission had reached power of this body to such an extent that no effort was really made to promote bouts of a mixed nature.
And thus colored fighters despite the many assertions of the commission that they would sanction the beats if all the rules were stricly adhered to found it impossible to get work, and discovered that they were as effectfully barred here as in states where, there is a legal ban against mixed bouts.
Action signement.
But the latest acton of the big men in the boxing game, together with the unprecedented demand for a Wills-Dempsey meeting, and the willingness to comply with the almost impossible demand of the commission, is regarded as the entering gripe to a championship match, with a colored man and a white man as the principals. It is thought that the New York spille, which has not been used to mixed matches, is gradually educated to mixed matches, so that when the greatest of all matches of this type—the Wills-Dempsey affair—is announced it will need, with a minimized amount of opposition.
This angle of the situation can be taken for what it is worth, but the first reading that I include him is

understanding. Others knew in part and loved in part; he comprehended the whole. His contemporaries thought in fractions, he in integers. He was the only one in forty millions who understood that the whole was greater than any of its parts. No local prejudices or sectional asperities could warp him from this axiomatic truth. The sure knowledge of the sage, the moral sense of the saint and the practical wisdom of the stateman were his. The hasty local surgeon advised immediate abolition of slavery as the cancerous malady of the national body. They would amputate the affected member and leave the body maimed for life, but Abraham Lincoln understood the wisdom and philosophy of the greatest of all thinkers: "If thy right hand can touch it, it and cast it upon it" but not for the reason that the cutting off and the casting away, but only because it is better that one member should perish than that the whole body he destroyed. No skillful surgeon will operate upon a patient until his body is built up to the point of endurance and resistance where it will withstand the shock of the operation.
"Free the slave, and free him now," cried the inflamed anti-slavery advocate. Because he delayed and hesitated, they accused him of moral indifference and cowardice. But they only saw in part and prophesied in part. Abraham LincolnForest was outcome as well as profit. This effort has been an abortive attempt in free the Negro if the Union had hope destroyed?; if I can save the Union by retaining slavery, I will do it."

IS KNOWLEDGE REALLY POWER?
Does Knowledge Of Material Drive A Man From God? What Is Education?
Shall we or shall we not educate our children? And if we do, where shall it be and with what? No doubt this question has arisen in many parents' hearts and will arise in many more.
Does a knowledge of material things drive a man from God? Not always. We know that a knowledge of material things does not necessarily draw a man to God for if it did our institutions of higher learning would be filled with Godliness which they surely are not. An cell man uses knowledge to do more evil and a good man to do more good, and a good man to do more evil and to the other a blessing. The danger lies not in the possession of the knawwledge but in the use made of it. And the use of it is determined by the man himself.
Why should people be afraid of education? Is it possible because they are ignorant of what education is? A carpenter whets his chisel and fills his saw that they may cut better. An educated mind is a whetted and sharpened mind. Education and culture are not so much a process of accumulating knowledge as a training of the mind by the process of studying. Very little of the mathematics and language studied as remembered but the process of studying them has made the mind keen even the things studied are forgotten. And that mind so made keen is far more able and capable to overcome in the "struggle for existence."
Whether the keen mind becomes a curse or a blessing depends upon the man himself. The sharpened chisel or saw can do far better work for the carpenter than a dull one. But being sharpened they also become far more dangerous and effective for evil if used in that way. An educated mind sharpened and keen becomes an exerting tool for tool in the hands of yilied mined by the Hoks. Spirit and can-accomplish far more than one less keen, but likewise in the lands of the Devil becomes an excellent tool for the destruction of the man himself or even possibly thousands of others.
The possession of knowledge rightly used never has hurt any one. Paul standing on Mars Hill at Athens, being questioned concerning his so-called foreign doctrines and strange gods, brought to play all the diplomacy and brains that he possessed. And well it was that he did. He was speaking to men of knowledge and as a man of knowledge he met them. No ignorant fanatic would ever have made any impression on that audience. He knew for one thing that it was against the laws of Athens to speak or teach concerning, or attempt to foster upon the people any foreign gods. He knew that societies venerable philosopher of old had been sentenced to prison for poisoning him lockhole and died of being found guilty on this charge. So he made mention of finding their temple an after to the unknown God and instead of expanding to then concerning a new and strange God he told them about the one they already were shipped, although ignorant of his person, and being. The leading of the saints you say. Yes it was, but unless Paul had possessed this knowledge the Spirit could not have led him as He did. So Paul's knowledge of Greek history and customs became the open wedge for the successful preaching of the gospel in that region.
Daniel in the court of Nebuchadnezzar learned all that Babylon had to give and with this learning at his command was more than a match for and became the master, of the astrologers and soothsayers of his day. His education and culture gave him access to the courts of the greatest kings and empires and made his services to be in demand for almost a century. Through this he became a mighty pillar for the truth and a living exponent of the teaching of Jehovah—the God above all the gods—the Creator of Heaven and earth. Moses as the son of Abraham's daughter was initiated into all of the many and secret mysteries of Egypt. With 30 years of schooling in the desert to learn patience and to feel his own delicacy he came back a great God—I AM THAT I AM. And clothed with His Spirit and possessing Egypt's secrets he became as a god to the Egyptians and the deliverer of his own people.
Isaiah in his day was a statesman and an advisor to kings. God's Spirit operating through him and upon him found a vessel of the highest order and the resulting message through him became of the highest order. An expert organist is limited in his message by the capacity of the instrument upon which he plays. Using a poor instrument his efforts produce but a mediocre result, but using a large pipe, organ he holds the whole audience spell bound. The message of the Holy Spirit through a man is determined by that man's capacity. If his capacity is small his message is small. If large and the mind deep enough to handle the great revelations of the deep things of God then the Spirit's message and revelation through that man is in direct proportion to his capacity. Isaiah's message was what it was because his mind was capable of handling it. Likewise Paul was entrusted with the deepest mysteries of salvation because of all of the men of his day he was best fitted to receive it.

Oh God give us great men with great minds like the men of old, dedicated and consecrated to Thy service.
But, the great detriment that here arises is that but few men with great minds are humble enough to give God the glory and men seeing God operate through a great mind or man are not humble enough to give God the glory rather than God. Therefore not many wise, not many noble, not many mighty, are called.
Because "the faith once for all delivered to the saints is in these days attacked from a scientific angle some people are damning and cursing everything scientific. But what is science? Nothing more or less than knowledge. This same scientific research and knowledge has given us all our inventions without which our present civilization would hardly exist one week. We freely use the products of scientific study every day in multitudes of forms. We use electricity in lighting, hearing, telephone, telegraph, and wireless, machines in industry, machinery and machines in industry in our nation and in society in our nation and in even eating. Why then rage against the study and research that gave us these things? The fact that a few mentally perverted, men are using scientific knowledge to expound impossible theories is not sufficient cause for casting away all scientific truth or remaining ignorant.
Darwin and his followers used a certain arrangement of scientific facts in an attempt to prove that man and the apes have arisen from a lower form of animal life. Attacking this with only surrection and ridicule does not refute it. The only thing that from a scientific point of view can overthrow it is other scientific knowledge. And, science itself has provided this very weapon. Since Darwin's day Mendel's Law of Heredity has been discovered which totally sets in motion Darwin's arguments and overthrows his theories. Had Darwin of this law his books would have been seen wrong. Instead of his writing to much he knew to little and this it may be said is true of those who still hold to his theories. So deeper scientific knowledge begets Darwin's greatest antagonist and most successful enemy.
The theories and fallacies of misapplied scientific knowledge are not crushed by ignorance but rather by deeper science and knowledge correctly used. Many professing religion take great delight in heaping abuse upon all things new and make themselves the laughing stock of thinking people. What they and others need is a real knowledge of facts, as

MARCUS GARVEY ISSUES 'MANIFESTO' CONCERNING SITUATION IN NEAR EAST
Advises Christian Negroes To Refrain From Fighting Mohammedan Negroes If Threatened War Comes.
Associated Negro Press.
NEW YORK CITY, Sept. 27, Mar-
ens Garvey is on the rampage again.
This time it is the situation in the Near East that engages his august attention. He has not Contact Into this controversy by issuing a message to the Negroes of the world, requesting their stand together in the event of another war, and advising that Christian Negroes refrain from fighting Mohammedan Negroes. Garvey's message in part reads:
"The world is stirred once more with the news of battle. The Anglo-Saxon world will naturally stand by itself, but the millions of Negroes who make up the control of all men are determined to stand together new and unhousetoworth as a united race, but neither go forward backwardward defence nor attack. But we shall stand for ourselves for the freedom of our country, Africa.
"Some imagine that this new outbreak will be a precursor of a Holy War. The 400,000,000 Negroes of the world are not concerned in a Holy War, even though millions of our race are members of the Mohammedan faith and millions more are members of the Christian faith and religion; the fight with the Negro is political injustice.

No progress in civilization along the line of building up Educational Institutions, churches, science, art or discovery, has been accomplished without the finger prints of this class marking every stage in the world's history. They often make moves for a solution to solve some wealthy problem and then oppose its passage. They say and do not. They will climb to the highest heights or steep to the lowest depths to carry out a selfish aim. No sacrifice is too great for them and the institution are the for the selfish interest individual or group.
The church they are the to propose plans for the financial and spiritual success, the first to stay away and ease the howl. "They want too much money." Then they put up a food mouth lie, that it is too hot, too or cold and often say "I can go to Heaven just as good outside the church as I can in it." Peter, whatsoever you lose on earth shall be boosted in Heaven. They tried to obstruct Columbus and the Black man that discovered America. Flagger was told he could not drain the swamps of Florida, and build the Florida East Coast Railroad thru Key West, but he said it will be killed. Then with faith and man he took the thing that could be done and he did it and beating dead, yet smothered sweaters, hughed old man that out of court when he caught the vision and put in operation his plans to connect Florida, with the outside world by the way of the Atlantic Coast Line, but the genius and talent of this forerunner of a greater Florida lives in the memory and hearts of thousands today for his will and perseverance. Read his history and you will see how Geo. Washington, the father of this country has to contend with the obstructionist in getting the Constitution of the United
States born. And those who fail to be governed by the laws of the land and the constitution of the United States today whether north or south, east or west, and arrogate to themselves the rights to be Judge and Juror, appointed administrators of the law and now and then catch and burn and lynch innocent and guilty citizens, and run some out of communities, are nothing but obstructions to righteous government and Christian civilization. Eccl. 8:1. Because sentence against an evil work is not executed specially, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil. No two wrens make a right. Then we run upon the communities where men and women with ten touches sit the law and by tale telling and lynching and those who sell themselves contrary to the law and good government, desecrating the Sabbath and all other days. This class are instructors to that prescript and its good name goes down. Any city or community is measured, marked and published by the leading events, and every day actions of its constituency, whether they be good or bad, and so often hearts ache and tears flow caused by the tongue and acts of that class of obstructionists. Ask your self: Do I belong to this group?
2nd The Destruction
The pale horse and his rider, what one leaves the other picks up. This second class composes another third of our population, and you are apt to run on members of this class in all walks of life. from a Book-black to a Banker, Shofthul. Lazy. Blanketed wives who not only act but train their children to destroy year in and year out, all their family can make. They "Big Little Folks" make a contribution of tenious or render any kind of service to civilization. Great consumers, but Medicine Producers, and us citizens they try to dig down the foundation on which you have been for years building a character, and would delight to laugh at the fall. They knock the church of which they are members, and yet they go thru heat or cold, sick or well to meet and pay society dues, and half of the time it's only the rich and well to do that receive a just recompense of reward from most of the societies. No race can reach that degree of usefulness and independence thru this destructive force. Ye serile saw during the wide war, men buy $12,000 silk shirts, and women $22,000 high top silks, and now that same class can't have their shoes half-solet. kind of economy is deprived to us as a race in the commercial and business world. The fakers and desi- rental business, pulpit and pew, and the school rooms are not immune from the sharks. Graft and greed or every corner; this is not for the honest. And the destroyers of our political rights have sold us out so often and to that extent that the honest to God" men and women will have to suffer martyrdom to redeem us and get back on the main line. So often you have heard people say, "I will rule this thing or ruin it." When the people hear that you may look for the latter. This same destructive force tackled Elijah He said. "Meet me on the Mount Carmel and I will show you the way." The reader knows the story.
This last third of the world's population are those who with faith in God, the cause they represent and themselves, are optimists and go forth to fight the world's battles hungry, cramped and sometimes criticized, thru blood and tears to sow the seeds lay the foundation; and plant the genus for mighty men, women and business. They saved others; themselves they could not save. The martyrs block opened up the door and threw up a mighty way for the Church. All that one needs to know is that you are with the conducive Gods minority, and the devil's majority must go. Sampson, the strongest slew a thousand Phillistines with the jawbone of an ass. Joshua stopped the sun on Gidion and the moon in the valley of Adjalon because they were constructive generals. Gidion ousted the Milinatians and those obstructive forces vanished like deer. Queen Ether a midsummer sun; Queen contrary to law and custom went into the law to save her life and that her race after the destructive forces had secured the signature of the King to hate the whole Nation mobbed. Truth with constructives to down the decree. Christ met the enemy on Calvary while Heaven gazed, earth chided and hell decided. The conflict was fierce and the battle raged, but he paid off the mortgages and then the obstructive and destructive forces said surely this must be the son of God.
Peter died with his head downward at bloody Nero's chopping block because he had expoused the cause of Christianity. Paul set forth the cardinal principles and enunciated the doctrine of Christ so strong at Mars Hill and before the Lord of Rome, that finally in May he was beheaded. The workman cured but the work goes on. John on Patmos lonely isle, rocked by waves and swept by storms, exiled by the destructive forces in his panoramic vision cannon and mage. that gibes to its the Church's impediments and also the instruction that guides her burial at ages. That wings his apocalyptic ground and we see her final home coming with the saints marching and the King of kings and Lord of lords earthred. Latimore. Ridley. Clinton. Luther. Clement. Turner. Wayman. Holley. Lane. Jones. Lenox for the church: Douglas Tonshunt. Glovertown. Walters. Abstork. Clementu. Gale. Washington. Scarborough for the Educational arena, and in short thru all the walls of life and all the way up they, others met the combative, contemptible and pretender, the characterless, the sowered, the men with all their blood and the world.
INTER-RACIAL CONFERENCE AT NASHVILLE, TENN
Associated Negro Press.
NASHVILLE, Tenn., Sept. 27. The signs are plenty that the Inter-Racial Conference scheduled to take place during the first week in October in this city will be a big success. Inquiries from the several sections of the country makes this a certainty. This has obliged the local committee of arrangements to issue a statement regarding the rail rates that will be available to the large number of people who are anxious to attend the conference. The committee has issued the following bulletin.
lowing in order to obtain benefit of these reduced fees each delegate must first obtain identification certificates for use in purchasing their tickets at starting point. The way for each delegate to get the necessary identification certificate mentioned is to write at eve to Dr. J. N. C. Coggins, Conference Director, headquarters Colored Y. M. C. A. Building, Nashville, Tenn., giving name and address of himself (or his self) and name and address of any dependent member or his (or her) family who desires to attend the Temperance, Public Morals And Law Enforcement Conference, (Interdenominational - Colored) to be held at Nashville, Tenn. (October 2-6, Inclusive)
Unless this identification certificate is sent from the headquarters (Colored M. Y. C. A., Nashville, Tenn.) and used by each delegate in purchasing his or her railroad ticket at the starting point (Before coming to the Convention) the special reduced round trip railroad rates will not be granted. These special reduced railroad rates have been authorized on practically all lines through the country, including the Southeastern, Southeastern, Western, Central New England and Trunk Line Passenger Associations (except those stations on New Orleans Great Northern Railroad.
The fare for round trip tickets on all railroads will be one and half fare (from starting point to Nashville and return). Tickets on sale from September 29 to October 5. Return limit October 5. In disgregates, Nashville after the evacuation in time to return home by midnight of October 13th). In case of Missouri, Kansas, Arkansas, Louisiana, these special tickets will be placed on sale from September 29 to October 5, inclusive, with final return limit of October. In disgregates, Texas tickets will be on sale from September 29 to October 4, inclusive, with final return limit October 14.
opolists filled with faith in their race. They have a vision; they arrest opportunities and make good. They buy land, build schools, churches, homes, run farms, banks, grocery, drug shoe, and dry goods stores. They keep first cities tailoring establishments, clean barber shops; they are always ready to register, pay their tax and vote. They contend for a man's chance and are contented with no less; they delight to live so as to create healthy public sentiment; and to be counted a number one all the walks of life, and now my dear reader, to what group of men three classes do you belong? Answer. Echo Answer. "Thirth."

Associated Negro Press.
Announcements are appearing three several agencies of national influence that the Recreation Congress to be held in Atlantic City, October 29th to 12th, this year, will be together the largest group of community leaders and national leaders that has ever assembled for the purpose of discussing methods to promote wholesome play and recreation in our various communities. Several hundred persons have already indicated their desire and purpose to attend this meeting, which is being fostered by a Recreation Congress committee, at 1 Madison Avenue, New York City, New York. While this movement to a very large degree in terms of white people has been increasingly questioned on their tentative program which will be discussed such as "planning a recreation program for "colored citizens" "how far are they themselves participating in program-planning, money-raising" etc."
While a number of colored leaders throughout the country and the public in general has been invited to attend we wonder to what extent this movement will appeal to the interest of our leaders generally and whether the significance and importance of the recreation movement has reached us either as a matter of adjustment in the case of ourselves as adults, or as a plan for the welfare of our children. Many of our churches are trying out so-called social work which includes several recreational features because they are beginning to realize that our wholesome commercial life in the community will be the effect of a formal church program. School folks with vision are also a wakening, to give a somewhat wider greater consideration to play and other recreational activities because of their character building influence.
The last Recreative Congress was held in 1916, and in that year about 84,200,000 was spent for public recreation; last year nearly nine million dollars was spent. In 1916 there were about 7,000 persons employed to direct play at various centers; last year over 11,000. These local recreation movements are financed sometimes by commissions or organizations of private character, but are increasingly stimulated by municipal fund.
Is the Negro taking any interest in this movement? Is he actively participating in the formation of its program? Does he know the facts in connection with his own local community? If these questions are not answered in the affirmative, we may be sure that we will not be participants in the benefits. There is much to be learned from what may be sold at the great National Recreation Congress next month. Recreation officials, superintendents of parks directors of community centers and settlement, church workers leaders of boys and girls' clubs, teachers of physical education, school superintendents, representatives of women's clubs and of local community service groups, and other types will attend. May we be represented?

Races suicidely discredit the Creator and defeats the ends of creation. Man alone possesses this power. He is the only biological agent who thwarts the purpose of his own existence. "Multiply, repileth, the earth, and subdue it." is the first and final command to all created things in the animal and vegetable kingdom. The struggle for existence and the survival of the fittest is the result of the endeavor of plant and animal to carry out this high degree. Man alone gives up the ghost and seeks surcease from suffering by self sterility. What a reflection upon the God who made him and gave him dominion over the earth and air and sea and all that in them is!
O! that there might be breathed a new in the nostrils of the Negro that primal breath of Godhood. The Negro must believe that he is the son of God and joint heir to the divine Patrimony. The rights of humanity are alienated to the Negro, who is directed by reason of precolor, condition, creed, or elime. Although recognition may be withheld and privileges denied for the while they can never be effaced or taken away. Only, the craven soul can hypothecate his divine birthright. "Though ye have lain among the pots yet shall ye be as doves with wings of silver and feathers of yellow gold." Let the Negro reread all lilies, praised by his imaginary Satan, the character of his imaginary Satan, who is but the embodiment of the touch, tenacious Pentone spirit.
"The mind is its own place. And of itself can make a heaven of hell, a hell of heaven."
All is not lost if the mind is not lost. The unconquerable will always finds hope in despairness and resolutions in despair. If there can only be injected in the minds of the Negro this much of the spirit of Milton's devil we shall never again listen to a possessive wall counseling suprine yieldance to an unfavorable fate. That would be an infamy beneath the deepest downfall under the compulsion of supernatural power. Satan's counsel to his overthrown host applies with special pernency to the Negro of today.
"Awake, arise, or be forever fallen."
Weariness of will is the Negro's best-sitting sin. In the intellectual and sentimental features of mind he is neither deficient or inferior as compared with the highest established standards, but his present backward status is due to volitional reinfelement. The strongest appeal should be made to apply to the point of greatest weakness. Then away with the counsel, in prose or rhyme, which tends to compound this weakness of will. The world of ours is full of iniquity. The progress of two thousand years of Christian grace has not suffited to banish injustice and wrong. The rich and the poor, the strong and the feeble, the wise and the foolish, the white and the black, the young and the young are yoked together in unequal contests. But we are not left without hope. The final verdict does not consist in the nightness of might, but in the right-courness of right. This is the one divine event to which the whole creation moves. Heredit lies the Negro's productive device and offensive philosophy.
Eodurace is the dominant virtue that crowns the nexx of the pyramid of human strivings. He that endures to the end shall be saved. All things in this life and in the life to be are reserved to him that overcometh. In the meantime let us pray that Eodurace will be called the devoted man; was liberated with the delirium of pestle fantasy but that in his sober mood he will resent his evil utterance, and apologize for the insult to the God who made him and to the race which must bear the brunt of his insanity.
LYNCHING AND RAPE.
It seems to impress "the Southerners in Congress that Negro leaders and papers, while denouncing lynching, do not in equal measure denounce "Negro rapists." It is because there is such distinctive thing in this world as a class of "Negro rapists." The Negro will always denounce all rapists of whatever color or parity; and if he does so, he will find himself denouncing white men most of the time, for they do most of the raping. They do most of it, first because there are more white men in America than black men, and second, white men feel more nearly immune when they commit the crime, and so actually do more of it in proportion to their numbers. In one large city of the country more rape was committed by white men. In one year than by all the Negroes of the whole nation.
Why on earth? then should Negroes emphasize "Negro rapists," unless it was in order to help along the lie that Negroes are peculiarly inclined to commit rape.
Let these southern men also bear in mind. That Negro leaders do not denounce white lynchers, but all lynchers—and this in spite of the fact that Negroes did all the raping, white men do all the lynching, there would be at least a little sense in shagging out "Negro rapists" for special denunciation.
There never yet has been any need of legislation or denunciation in reference to Negro rapists, but there is always need of special attention to rapists of all breeds. And that Negro paper or leader who mentions "Negro rapists" simply plays into the hands of the larks.
COMPETITORS ARE NOT ENEMIES
The man who thinks it is his business to defeat his competitors is wrong. His competitors are not his enemies. They happen to be workers in the same field. The most efficient competitor offers the greatest inspiration to the business man who is keen enough to see that his job is to serve his public. The wise man looks upon competitors as co-operators.
CURRENT AND OTHERWISE.
By W. H. A. Moore.

boy orators are growing more source. I know of no reason why they should become less illiterate unless it is the present. They are undeniably valuable fact, because never was a good reason advanced why they should ever be in the first place for that matter. They are in the main examples of "the greatness of the race" that never directly or indirectly appealed to me. Therefore, I am hailing with a joy that is close akin to glee the apparent fact, at least, that the tribe is fast disappearing from the face of the earth. In the place of the afforestation boy orator. I think I see a new order of humans coming to the race's face. Our young men are going into business. I have in mind the recent venture of I have in Chicago the vigorous progressive young man who has discovered a great business activity for colored people. He has organized a Casket Manufacturing and Funeral Supplies Company. At first爪爪 this idea has for the casket and funeral situations until he neverly is actually forced to do. Nevertheless, Edward Ephraim, a twenty-four year old Negro of Chicago has wisely taken time by the forelock and fed him right up to a place where he is straight forward, practiced way. people have no unhappy way of dying. White people have no particular prejudice when it comes to the time-making money. He even took the picture caskets and stored folks for no other reason than because there is money in it. We need many prosperous business in our ranks. If Mr Ephraim is manufacturing plants meets an essential need. I see no good reason why he should not be helped to accumulate a fortune, in the business venture, that I believe he has wisely chosen to follow. But the real meat in the oxen is that we need more of what this young venture some. Negro man has started out to get in substantial portions—money and plenty of it—so that we can do many more of the big things we are in the habit of talking so much about. And best of all he has chosen an honorable and dignified business in which to engage his fine qualities in native business. This makes the business who go into lagomorph lines of business the more the race in a whole will be able to command and hold the respect of the mass of the American people. May the Ephraim tribe increase, is my deeply, earnest prayer.
I have had in mind the saying of an honest word or two concerning the Anthology of Negro Poetry compiled by James Weldon Johnson. I am determined by the fact that Mr. Johnson had the kindness of soul to include two poems from my typewriter in his compilation. I am conculvatively in fear that the kindness of soul would be assumed toward the book would be determined a bit of leisure on my part and therefore, would lead a far from what I have in mind is the right and helpful thing to do in a contemplation on our errors. I am of the opinion that Professor Locke of Howard University is the man to give us an estimate of the book. The book is an interesting effort. I believe it to be a serious endeavor to give the American reading and thinking public a clear view of what the Negro has achieved in the past. I believe that my mind still set in this direction. I hope that someone of the group, possessing sound scholarship, will take the time to give us a study of the Anthology that will serve as a starting point for a more arresting work of the kind in the future. Dr. Locke does not write verse. God save him from the fate—at least. I have never had the fortune to read any of his production in this field of literary effort. What I want to get at is the need for someone about the book. I imagine Dr. Locke can do that very task acceptably and therefore without prejudice. I pray that his attention will be called to this matter.
The Stradford Theatre will be opened to the public sometime during the month of, next May. If the present plans do not go awry Charles Gliph will be the star to first appear out its stage. "John Brown, Kind" will likely be the play chosen for the occasion with Gliph being the lead. It will land story based on a poem written by your humble servant. Let us hope it will reach the high mark as a play that Charles Gliph has attained as an actor. In that event the STRADFORD THEATRE will open most auspiciously.

Can't Doctor Stumps.
Boring holes in stumps and filling them with saline or something else to hasten decay is a waste of time according to the foresters of the State Agricultural college, at Tihaca, N. X.
The holes do give added surface for nature's destructive agents to work on, but only digging, chopping, burning, or blowing out will quickly dispose of stumps that can't wait for the slow process of decay.

PARIS, France Sept. 27.—At a time when France is recruiting her army largely from colored men it is interesting to hear Francois Leblon's opinions on the subject. He says in L'Ouestre: "During the war, central Africa, people with 2,900,000 inhabitants, produced 16,000 to 17,000 soldiers: West Africa with 12,200,000 inhabitants, gave us 16,300 men. The idea at once prevailed that we should have an almost inhuman able reserve of men if France were to be the victim of another aggression. The idea is quite wrong, but been said that the black rice is especially well suited for warfare. If we are to believe the documents of Commander X, this is only true with certain tribes becoming more and more rare since peace reigns, nearly everywhere on the black continent. The truth is that most of the natives do not like being soldiers. To try to make a soldier of a Leucon is, for instance quite suited for fighting. It seems too that we must do it toughly toward the mutated blacks. That seem to find great difficulty in getting their pensions, caused partly, of course by the great distance in their country.

Bell Bombarded Monday
On Monday the Detroit boys evening up the series by slamming Bell for six runs in the first five innings of the game. The locals could do very little with Cooper and the visitors camped over 6 to 3. Four successive hits in the first innning after two were out gave the visitors three runs. A pair of singles and a sacrifice gave them one more run in the second. A single by Wesley and Cooper's home run produced two more runs for Detroit in the fourth. St. Louis came to life in the fourth and scored once on Blackwell's single and Kennard's triple. Bell got into trouble again in the fifth and had the bags loaded with two men out when Oldham was sent to relieve him. Oldham retired the idea and held the visitors scoreless for the remainder of the game.
St. Louis two other runs came in
his fifth. But missed the timing by
sticking left by a pitched ball. Bennett
battled for Miller and came through

Hensley Loses Hard Game
Tuesday's game went to the visitors to 3 in ten innings. "Eggie" Henry was the star of the game and atheled shutout ball for nine innings, the exception of the seventh inning when two errors in the field and one by Base Umpire Holland gave the lightheart City athletes three unearned runs. It is true that Wesley, socked the ball on the roof of the car she had, the tenth but inasmuch as Hensy should have went over 2 to 1 in the innings, the tenth inning would never have been necessary. It is a rang'r coincidence that Wesley figured in both plays, the one which allowed the St. Louis lads to the daint in the ninth and the one which son the game in the tenth.
The locals scored two runs in the second fining on three hits, a sacriice and Warfield's error. Russell singled to center. Miller sacrificed. Wesley to Thomas. Hensley was safe on Warfield's fumble. Hewitt lined to center for a single. Russell alooping.

McAdoo hit to deep center, and when the ball went into the car shed; he was sent back to second and Hewitt was forced to return to third. Hensley scored on the play.
Meanwhile, Hensley was mowing the opposition down with a monotonous regularity and only four hits, each in a separate inning, were made off his delivery up to the seventh inning. But when things began to happen, Holt fumbled Thomas' easy grounder, the runner reaching first ahead of the belated throw. Thomas got a long lead when Hensley foolishly wound up, and stole second with ease. Jones went out, Russell to McAdoo, a great play retiring the runner by a lash, Holland cracked a hit off "Eggles" shin and Thomas scored. Watson hit one down the line, and when McAdoo knocked the ball out, the runner was safe, but Williams foolishly tried to score on the break and was out, McAdoo to Kennard. Watson went down to steal second and when Force failed to move, Kennard cut loose a throw to second. Watson overslid the bag and was two feet off the cushion, but Empire Holland waved him safe. That break, cost the local team the game, as it would have been the third out. Higgins tripped to right and Force and Watson scored. Wardfield rolled to Hokkien and the inning, but the damage hall had been done. Detroit was leading 4 to 2.
Then came the ninth and St. Louis tied the score when Wesley made a bad boot of Dudley's grounder. Blackwell scored the tying run. Blackwell had walked and stole second previously. In that, inning Sam Bennett assumed the pinch-hitting role and, as usual, came through with a hit. This brave effort, however, was nullified when Ray struck out as Meyers, who ran for Bennett, was easy stealing. In the tenth Wesley hit a home run on the roof of the car shed to win the game after two men were out.

Meyers Wins Again
On Wednesday the St. Louis Stars evened up the series by winning 11 to 5. Meyers was on the hill for the locals and pitched great ball, holding the visitors to five hits. He was hit for three blows in the first inning and held them hitless until the ninth when they made two hits. The locals mean while pounded Wilson for fourteen hits and eleven runs. Bennett and McAdoo hit home runs. Bennett led the hitting attack for the locals with three hits in four times at bat.

Wesley doubled to center, scoring Riggins and Warfield. Riggins was out at third when he tried to stretch his hit, Dudley to Russell. Smith grounded to McAdoo for the third out.

Dudley and McAdoo sent singles to center Seid, the former taking third on Mac's drive. Holt promptly scored the runners with a triple down the left field 'line and scored when Jones' return got away from Petway. Meyers and Russell were easy.
Meanwhile Meyers was mowing the Detroit batters down almost as fast as they came up-only one man reached first and that on a walk in the seven innings between the first' and the sixth' in the fifth inning the locals took advantage of a pair of virsrs, and adding two hits to the fielding breaks, soaked three runs. Holt singled to center and took second on Meyers' neat sacrifice. Holt got' to third when Riggs fumbled Russell's grounder. Hewitt went out Warfield to Wesley. Holt holding third. Kennard was purposely passed. Black well-lifted an easy fly to Jones and when the latter dropped the ball Holt and Russell scored. Bennett struck.

Smashing savagery and primitive good health grown out of an inheritance of hard work and perfect physique has again won over the vaunted science and ring generalship of a world's champion. Battleling Sikl, black Senegalese has proven himself a better fighter, stronger man and greater ring general than Georges Carpentier, until now the idol of France and light heavy champ of Europe.
Heavyweight Champ J. Dempsey must have had the blues when cable dispatches of the Sikl-Carpentier fiasco began to grieve. Every sports writer and box fight dopester in the country knows that there is not a white man in the game fit to meet Dempsey—the same men know that Dempsey must meet some one and that, soon. Until Carpentier faded, the heavy champ could use him for an alibi and dodge Willis, dangerous colored contender.
Now here comes Sikl, another black man, and of unknown possibilities, to worry the champ.
Siki's record is loaded with dynamite for Dempsey. The white champ has had only one fight in several years against a man who could take punishment and that was the set up with Bill Brennan, December 14, 1920, when Dempsey knocked out Brennan in the twelfth round.
Dempsey's record is that of a man with a powerful punch. Siki's record is that of a man who can take unlimited punishment and who also has a powerful punch. Dempsey is a slugging man eater. Siki is a punishment gating tiger.
Siki and Carpentier
Sikh and Carpenter
The world was treated to an exhibition of more than a prize fight when the black Senegalese knocked out Carpenter in the sixth round of their championship bout near Paris last Sunday. French fairness and true sportsmanship was as much on exhibition as was the ability of two fighting machines.
Bernstein, the referee, seems to have forgotten both that he was in France and that the moving picture has made unfair charges of foul difficult to sustain.
The light opened with the colored man cautious and careful. With the first round the two fighters hustled to the center of the ring and into a slouch. Carpenter tried out his famous upperpart all the way from his another crouch. Ski wasn't there when the blow arrived. The first round proved the black man practically invariable to pals and able to take all that Georges could give as an experiment.
In the second round the amused confidence which Georges showed in the first round was all gone. Ski seemed to have learned all he wanted to know about the white man and started in to win. They exchanged

Wesley took second on the throwin. Smith reached first and Warfield scored when Hewitt fumbled the former's grounder. Wesley reaching third on the break. Thomas sent a long fly to Bemertt and Wesley scored. Jones' fly to Bemertt ended the game.

Soon after the start of round three Georges dropped Siki with a stiff right. Jumping to his feet after the count of five the black man slapped Carpenter on the jaw. The fight was over from then on, but, the fans didn't know it.
Carpenter, from round three to the end, and after, showed about the grossest disregard for all the rules of the game and of good sportsmanship, ever chroniced against a fighter. Butting, hanging on, hitting in clinches and every trick for disqualification known, seems to have been used by the exchamp is an effort to lose life fight on a foul and save himself the disgrace of being knocked out by a man he knew to be the best.
In the fourth round Siki began to get to Carpenter. At its end the white man was tired and seemed to know he had lost. Several times in the fifth round the referee threatened to disqualify both men for butting.
The white man rushed blindly into a whirlwind of double handed blows in the beginning of the sixth, and last, round. Carpentier dropped to the floor within the first minute. The referee did not start the count.
The white man had thoroughly disguised the fans long before the end. At one stage of the game the colored fighter, had assisted Georges to his feet. The white man, against every rule of the game and especially against rules of decency and good sportsmanship, swung hard for Siki's jaw while the Senegalese was assisting him to stand.
At the end of the sight and while Georges was lying dead to the world on the canvas the referee announced the white man winner on a four, claiming that Siki had tripped Carpentier. The crowd of 40,000 sport-loving Frenchmen went wild in protest against the referee's obviously unfair decision.
It is reported that Tex Riordan has wired a $100,000 offer for Ski to meet Harry Wilks. If they meet it will probably be another case of a good little man meeting a good big man. Although Wilks has been knocked out once and Ski never has been knocked out. It is also, true that Ski has never met men of the caliber of Sam Langford, Sam McVey, Jeff Clark, all of whom Wilks knocked out in 1915. It is also reported that fans want to see Ski and Dempsey come together, every one knows that Dempsey doesn't want any part of Wilks, and as the white champ is scheduled for a European trit this winter, it is possible that he will choose Ski while abroad as the leader of two evils. It will be an interesting fight if it comes off.

C. W. Georges Sumner Stars of So. St. Louis went to Kinloch Sunday and gave the Kinloch Stars a real beating, with Baneta Jackson pitching. The score was 6 to 5 in favor of the Sumner Stars. It was a pitchers' battle between Jackson and Knight, the latter having the edge. Knight, for the Sumner Stars, had his slow ball working to perfection. And his fast curves had them guessing.

DETROIT, Mich., Sept. 27. --Double-crossed and then subjected to untrue newspaper notifer, Earl R. Johnson, three time national amateur champion, and the greatest middle-distance runner the country has ever known, won the claim of superpoused white press agents here last Saturday.
Johnson, who won the 1921 Detroit New York Marathon had been invited to take part in the race this year. He informed the race officials that he would not run the race unless the course be changed.

Johnson started the race, and quit after he had run five blocks. The announcement came out later that Johnson had quit after he had run five miles! Such Bosh! Could anyone with just a spoonful of common sense conceive of a national five-mile and ten-mile champion quitting after running five miles? And then, to make it appear worse, no excuse was given to warrant such action. Clear minded and fair-sport-lovers can readily see the motive for this underhand method of doubles-crossing. Later Johnson won the five mile race hands down.
Billy Carter Gets Decision Over Eddie Carver
Preston Sews Service
CUMBERLAND, Md., Sept. 27.—In one of the stiffest contests from start to finish Billy Carter, of Connellsville, Pa., got the decision over Eddie Carver the clever fighter of Pittsburgh During the first four rounds it seemed as though Carver had the best of the affray. At the beginning of the fifth session Carter sailed into Eddie with all might and main fighting like mad and managed to and a few stingers. During the sixth, seventh and part of the eighth Carver managed to put up one of the clearest defensive lights seen here in many moons. Many of the fans, however, thought that Carver should have been given the decision as his method of fighting allowed more scientific boxing than Carver but the referee handed the decision to Carver. While it was only the preliminary bout of the affair, it seemed up more sensational stuff than the main bout.
