Roscoe C. Bruce Wiggles VOL. XL. NO. 51 Roso HIS TESTIMONY GET ESTING—HE IS AS HE WAS ABOUT G Senator Harrison: "We are just trying to estimate the strength of the Parents' League. Outside the church there was quite a crowd?" Mr. Bruce: "Yes, sir." Senator Harrison: "How many, would you think?" Mr. Bruce: "I really can not stimulate." Senator Harrison: "Were there 500?" Mr. Bruce: "I do not know. There were a great many out front." Senator Harrison: "Were there as many outside as inside?" Mr. Bruce: "There was such a crowd outside that the leaders sent speakers to address them. They sent people downstairs to take up the collection." Senator Harrison: "They were more after the collection than in getting speakers to them, were they?" Mr. Bruce: "That seemed to be the fundamental interest." Senator Harrison: "You were in the audience?" Mr. Bruce: "On the platform." Senator Harrison: "You did not contribute anything?" Mr. Bruce: "I did not." Senator Harrison: "They did send some speakers outside, didn't they?" Mr. Bruce: "Yes. You will see by just reading the stenographic report. It has been some time since I read it." Senator Harrison: "It is quite interesting. About the class of people, the more prominent members of the Parents' League—were there not some of the most prominent in attendance at that meeting?" Mr. Bruce: "Yes; I think that is a fair statement." Senator Harrison: "I notice that the first thing was a prayer by Rev. Emory W. Williams. Who is he?" Mr. Bruce: "He married the daughter of the editor of the Washington Bee, W. Calvin Chase. His sister—I beg pardon. I am not very familiar with the relationships in the family. He was, I believe, in charge of a school in South Carolina. He is now in and about Washington." Senator Harrison: "Well, he is a reputable. Negro preacher, is he not?" Mr. Bruce: "I presume so." Senator Harrison: "Is that the reputation that he bears?" Mr. Bruce: "I know little about him." Senator Harrison: "You have never heard anything to the contrary, have you?" Mr. Bruce: "No." Senator Harrison: "Stands well in the community?" Mr. Bruce: "As far as I know." Senator Harrison: "He is pastor of what church?" Mr. Bruce: "I don't know. In fact, I don't believe he is pastor of a church now." Senator Harrison: "Have you any doubt about his being a preacher?" Mr. Bruce: "I had some doubts about his having a Christian spirit." Senator Harrison: "Because of his attendance at this meeting?" Mr. Bruce: "The purpose of his ination to the Almighty." vocation to Senator Harrison: "Was not that good; inoxication?" a pretty good invocation. Mr. Bruce: "The mere words were no doubt." Senator Harrison: "What did you find fault with?" Br. Bruce: "Well, as I have stated in the communication to the superintendent, the leaders of the assembly, through Rev. Tanner, I believe, had gotten in touch with a responsible officer at the Department of Justice before the meeting was held and had secured the information that one of the teachers, and only one, in the colored schools was in anywise connected with the Moens case. That information was deliberately concealed from the people at that church from whom moneys were being diligently solicited. I consider that a The Washington Bee grossly improper thing." Senator Harrison: "So you did not like his invocation?" Mr. Bruce: "I simply think invoking the assistance of the Almighty in a propaganda of falschool is not Christian." Senator Harrison: "I notice he said in his prayer: 'We thank Thee that Thou hast so stirred the hearts of these people that they are manifesting themselves in this momentous way.' Did you find fault with that?" Mr. Bruce: "I think the indignation of the masses of the colored people in this community at the real and supposed activities of Moens in the public schools was entirely honorable; so far as such motives in sincerity operated, there is no criticism that one could properly pass." Senator Harrison: "You think they were sincere? Their motives were unquestionable?" Mr. Bruce: "I think some of the people who were giving money were perfectly sincere." Senator Harrison: "Don't you think that Rev. Emory W. Williams was sincere?" Mr. Bruce: "I don't know as to that particular individual." Senator Harrison: "What part of that prayer did you object to?" Mr. Bruce: "I don't believe I was there when the prayer was said. I read it afterwards." Senator Harrison: "It was a pretty good prayer, wasn't it?" Mr. Bruce: "Yes; the words were not bad." Senator Harrison: "Who was the Rev. J. Milton Waldron? Before I get away from the other one, though, you don't think that the fact that Williams is a brother-in-law of Chase, who seems to be the editor of some paper here, would influence him in being prejudiced against you, do you?" Mr. Bruce: "I don't know." Mr. Bruce: "Well, there is certainly no relation of friendship." Senator Harrison: "He never gave you any tokens of esteem or you never gave to him any tokens of esteem?" Mr. Bruce: "I presume you have in mind the relations of a number of years ago." Roscoe C. B. Mr. Bruce: "Yes. I may say I had an opportunity to interpret those words in Justice Mullowney's court. The proceeding arose from an inci- WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, MAY 22,1920 dent in which Chase had intended to intimidate the secretary of the board of examiners for colored schools, Mr. Glenn." Senator Harrison: "That is not the Ms. Glenn that was removed?" Mr. Glenn was Mr. Bruce: "The same Mr. Glenn." Senator Harrison: "About which you protested?" Mr. Bruce: "Yes. And Chase was so insistent and demonstrative and menacing that Mr. Glenn, in self-defense, knocked him down. This photograph of which you speak was produced in Justice Mullowney's court for the same purpose that you are producing it now." Senator Harrison: "I just want to find out the fact about this proposition. I get so much of this stuff, it gets my curiosity aroused. Did that cause any feeling of personal estrangement between you and Chase—the fact that you testified in that case?" Mr. Bruce: "I have never given the matter any thought." matter any way. Senator Harrison: "But you gave the photograph before that trial?" Mr. Bruce: "I think you have the reproduction of the photograph." Senator Harrison: "What was the date of the trial? Was it February, 1015?" Mr. Bruce: "I have forgotten the grace date." Senator Harrison: "About the controversy over Peyton's daughter, which was followed by Glenn's retirement from the board of examiners. When was that date? Was that before or after this incident?" Mr. Bruce: "It was after. I don't think I have the date. I don't think Peyton was on the Board of Education at that time. I could look up the record." LOCAL REPUBLICANS. Those Who Got Cold Feet—Williston Ignored by the Hogan Faction—Lassiter. Withdrew His Name When He Saw Defeat—Ex-Judge Hewlett Stood Alone—Dr. Charles Marshall Submitted to the Bosses, Will H. Hays With Lily-Whites. The convention of the hand-picked delegates hit many snags. It was understood by the hand-picked delegates that they would combine to defeat the white delegates, hand-picked Chase and J. A. Cobb, but when the convention met they all got cold feet except ex-Judge F. M. Hewlett. Dr. Williston had decided to become a candidate for delegate, but he was afraid to stand because his one-time running mate, Frank Hogan, had turned him down for Cobb, and before the convention was called to order, Henry Lassiter, a Willistonite, phoned Judge Hewlett not to present Williston's name to the convention because everything was cut and dried. Attorney A. W. Scott was a champion of Williston against Cobb, and when he failed to land Williston he joined hands with Miller. Dr. Charles H. Marshall, who had been for several weeks advocating the overthrow of the lily-whites, changed his coat when he was placed as one of the tail-enders of the hand-picked, as alternate. He had been opposed to Hogan, Bradshaw and all the others. Rev. W. H. Jernagin, the Oklahoma politician residing in this city, arose and said, "Gentlemen, I favor Mr. Hogan." Five minutes before this remark he had promised ex-Judge Hewlett to offer Cobb. When the time came for a showdown, the opposition had dwindled to one man, Judge Hewlett. Williston didn't want to be slaughtered, hence his friend Lassiter telephones Judge Hewlett not to present his name. J. A. Cobb was the weakest proposition that could have been nominated, but he will suit the element that nominated him. Dr. Williston, who claimed that he had such strength in 1916, demonstrated his weakness in 1920. The Bee said then that he was weak, and had to depend upon the white man to pull him through, and he failed. Will H. Hays was "featured by the white Republicans. Hogan's picture was not accompanied by his colored fellow-delegate. Cobb. This new school of colored Republicans who have squatted down in this city, is from the South and the members are used to being the servants of the Southern white men. This city is infested with them. MRS. McABEE'S RECITAL. Those who were not present at the sacred song recital, held Sunday evening last at the Lincoln Temple Congregational Church, missed a rare treat. All seats were occupied by 8:30, when Mrs. McAbee opened her program with Haydn's "With Verdure Clad," which carried such fullness of expression and feeling that the audience was held spellbound throughout the evening. Mrs. McAbee is a singer of rare charm and well proved herself worthy of the high praise accorded her by the music lovers of Baltimore and the Baltimors press and easily won for herself a most enviable place in the hearts of all whose good fortune it was to hear her. Her co-star was Mr. Frank Harrison, baritone, of the Howard University Conservatory of Music, a young artist with a future of great promise. His rendition of Mendelssohn's "It Is Enough" was magnificent, but when he sang Secchi's "Lungi Del Caro Bene," and one of the officials of the church had stated that since it would not be in keeping with the sacredness of the occasion to applaud, but that the audience might show its appreciation by rising, after each succeeding number the entire audience arose as one man. audience arose to Mr. Paul A. Mason, one of the well-known violinists of this city, played with such harmony as to lend that touch of color to the "Sermon of Song" that was necessary to make the recital the success that it was. Mr. Mason is an artist of no mean ability and held the undivided attention of his hearers at every occasion of his appearance. Lieut. James B. Lomack, Washington, was in his usual good form and sang with such feeling that many who heard him for the first time were added to his already long list of admirers, who know of his ability and gladly hear him whenever he appears. Dr. Theo. Parker, master of ceremonies, voiced the sentiment of all present to the artists for the rare treat they had brought to us in their "Sarmon in Songs." In the audience were guests of Baltimore. The recital was under the auspices of the Lincoln Temple Christian Endeavor Society and ably directed by Miss Mary L. Europe. AT THE HOWARD. "Alias Jimmy Valentine" to Be Presented Next Week. A guard came to the prison shoe-shop, where Jimmy Valentine was assiduously stitching uppers, and escorted him to the front office. There the warden handed Jimmy his pardon, which had been signed that morning by the Governor. Jimmy took it in a tired kind of way. He had served nearly ten months of a four-year sentence. "Now, Valentine," said the warden, "you'll go out in the morning. Brace up and make a man of yourself. You're not a bad fellow at heart. Stop cracking safes and live straight." "Me?" said Jimmy, in surprise. "Why I never cracked a safe in my life!" "Oh, no!" laughed the warden, "Of course not. Let's see, now. How was it you happened to get sent because you wouldn't prove an alibi for fear of compromising somebody up on that Springfield job? Was it in extremely high society? Or was it simply a case of a mean old jury that had it in for you? It's always one of the other with you innocent victims!" "Me?" said Jimmy, still blankly virtuous. "Why, warden, I never was in Springfield in my life!" "Take him back, Cronin." smiled the warden, "and fix him up with outgoing clothes. Unlock him at 7 in the morning, and let him come to the bull-pen. Better think over my advice. Valentine." And that's how Jimmy Valentine walked out of prison in the short story that O. Henry wrote and called "A Retrieved Reformation" and was put into a play called "Alias Jimmy Valentine" by Paul Armstrong, playwright, and made one of the most appealing of latter-day stage heroes. O. Henry was crowned as the greatest of short-story writers, and from his little story Paul Armstrong made one of the greatest and most heart-reaching plays, and it is this splendid play that has been selected for the edification of Washington playgoers next week. O. Henry has since died, much to the loss of American literature, but the powerful play made from his story will never die. Jimmy Valentine followed the warden's advice. The hard road he traveled, the life he lived, the woman he learned to love and the deeply absorbing story of that life and that love and the sacrifice he would have made of that love, all for the life of a little girl, are all part of the great play that Paul Armstrong has given us. Mr. Andrew S. Bishop is going to make an ideal Jimmy Valentine—an impersonation that is going to make a direct appeal for the sympathy of his audiences, and in this character he will have still more chance for his undoubted acting talents than in previous rolls. And the angel who believes in him, Rose Lane, will be given earthly delineation by Miss Cleo Desmond. Both parts are essentially romantic, their lines are full of heart interest; the scenes between them are of the most absorbing character, and Mr. Bishop and Miss Desmond promise to outdo themselves in giving them the best that lies in them to make living, human portraits. There are fifteen characters in "Alias Jimmy Valentine." Among them are two children—in fact, one of these children almost wrecks the life—unwittingly—of Jimmy and his angle, Rose Lane. There are other characters that are readily recognizable types of the people we meet in every-day life, and they will all be in the hands of the capable Lafayette Players. Players. The success of this great play is easy to understand. It is due to the pure, unadulterated appeal it makes to the sympathies and emotions of its hearers, and with a magnificent stage investiture, such as has already won for all the Howard productions the most lavish praise, "Alias Jimmy Valentine" may be expected to mark another brilliant success in the achievements of the Lafayette Players. COLORED SCHOOLS. Prof. Nelson E. Weatherless in All Probability the Next Superintendent—Bruce's Occupation Gone. It is rumored that Dr. Van Schaick favors Prof. Nelson E. Weatherless as assistant superintendent in charge of colored schools to succeed Roscoe C. Bruce: Prof. Weatherless is popular with the people and the teachers and undoubtedly the teachers would receive a fair deal under his administration. Prof. Weatherless is not only a high class educator, but a practical administrator. H. R. 4123, Intended To Protect Citizens of the United States Against Lynching in Default of Protection by the States. Mr. Dallinger introduced the following bill in the House of Representatives, which was referred to the Committee on the Judiciary and ordered to be printed: dered to be prince Be it enacted by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of America in Congress assembled, That the putting to death within any State of a citizen of the United States by a mob or riotous assemblage of three or more persons openly acting in concert in violation of law, and in default of protection of such citizen by such State or the officers thereof, shall be deemed a denial to such citizen by such State of the equal protection of the laws and a violation of the peace of the United States and an offense against the same. Sec. 2. That every person participating in such mob or riotous assemblage by which such citizen is put to death, as described in section 1 hereof, shall be deemed guilty of murder and shall be liable to prosecution and, upon conviction, to punishment therefor, according to law, in any circuit court of the United States having jurisdiction in the place where such putting to death occurs. Sec. 3.

If such forfeiture is not paid upon recovery of judgment therefor, such court shall have jurisdiction to enforce payment thereof by extent or levy of execution upon any property of the county, or may compel the levy and collection of a tax therefor, or otherwise compel payment thereof by mandamus or other appropriate process; and every officer of such county and every other person who disobeys or fails to comply with any lawful order of the court in the premises shall be liable to punishment according to law as for contempt and to any other penalty provided by the law therefor. Sec. 4. That every State or municipal officer having the duty or power of preservation or conservation of the peace at the time and place of any such putting to death as described in section 1 hereof, who having reasonable cause to believe that the same is being or is to be attempted, neglects or omits to make all reasonable efforts to prevent the same, and every State or municipal officer having the duty or power of prosecuting criminal offenses at such time and place who neglects or omits to make all reasonable efforts to prosecute to judgment under the laws of such State all persons participating in such mob or assemblage as described in section 1 hereof, except such, if any, as have been or are held to answer therefor in a circuit court of the United States, as provided in section 2 hereof, shall be deemed guilty of an offense against the United States and shall be liable to prosecution therefor in any district or circuit court of the United States having jurisdiction in such place, and upon conviction thereof shall be punished by imprisonment not exceeding five years, or by fine not exceeding $5,000, or by both such fine and imprisonment. HEIR TO $10,000. Wilmington, Del., April 22.—Edith Williams, an inmate of the Newcastle county workhouse, serving time for administering drugs that caused her brother's death, has fallen heir to $10,000. David Williams, her brother, carried this amount of Government war risk insurance. es re Be sea ae eens ee: ape Eng SD Ne eget a aC Ser ie pe ae pe eee eee.

The Greatest Conference in The History. of The Denomination—Rev. Dr. W. Sampson Brooks, The Greatest Financier in the A. M. E. Connection, Elected Bishop—Dr. W. T. Vernon, Dr. Cary And Dr. Johnson Also Elected—Dr. C. M. Turner of Washington, D. C., Offers a Resolution. (From St. Louis Argus.) St. Louis, Mo., May 18.—The A. M. E. Conference reached a climax of spirited enthusiasm Thursday morning at 11 o'clock when balloting began on the five bishops to be elected. The campaign had surpassed any contest of the kind in the memory of the oldest delegates. Soon as the balloting began the results spread like wildfire throughout the city. Hundreds of thousands of pieces of literature had been scattered by the candidates for the various offices and the competitors looked worn and weary when the election hour arrived. More than five thousand persons were in the Coliseum and every ear was strained when the tellers began to call off the count. After six hours of excitement, Dr. William Decker Johnson of Plains, Ga., and Dr. A. J. Cary of Chicago were elected on the first ballot, receiving 372 and 321 votes, respectively, with Dr. W. A. Fountain, president of Morris Brown University, Atlanta, Ga., and Dr. W. Sampson Brooks of Baltimore and Dr. W. T. Vernon of Memphis, Tenn., following the nearest lead. The Second Ballot. On the second ballot W. Sampson Brooks, with a count of 319, was the only candidate to receive enough votes to elect. Vernon and Caldwell ran close for fourth position. On the third ballot Dr. W. T. Vernon won by 400 and Rev. W. A. Fountain received 368 votes, completing the five. Committees continued to report and many resolutions were offered up to Thursday morning. On Race Equality. On Monday an important resolution was adopted by the conference defining its stand on racial equality. It was submitted by Dr. C. M. Tanner, of Washington, D. C., and read as follows: "Resolved, That the general conference, in regular session assembled, give the following expression of our faith, belief and position regarding the great question of racial division and racial solidarity: "We firmly believe, reaffirm and steadfastly maintain the Bible teaching concerning the various race varieties and divisions in the human family. "That there is, but one race—the human race—and that no matter how much the peoples of this earth may vary as to color, hair, language, customs, laws or geographical location God hath made of one blood all nations that dwell on the earth. "We brand as false and pernicious the doctrine of any superior race or superman, except as opportunities, environment and education shall enable a man, group of men, a race variety, or a nation, to show improvement or hold sway over and dominate other men or groups of men. Given opportunities, the various race varieties have always shown equal capacity for improvement." Conference Approves Prohibition. The conference went on record with an approval of the prohibition question as set forth in the constitution. Resolutions praising the educational system, but recommending a more equitable division of the funds, were approved. The conference also approved the granting of the ballot to women, saying in part: "The womanhood of the country, we believe, will help to purify politics and keep the country safe along lines for moral uplift." The conference went on record as favoring the organic union between the three denominations composing the Tri-Council: A. M. E., A. M. E. Zion, and C. M. E. churches. The following is the preamble to the resolutions: Historically speaking, it is seen that the African Methodist Episcopal, the African Methodist Episcopal Zion, and the Colored Methodist Episcopal churches, originated in a similarity of causes and therefore resulted in a similarity of effect as regards their respective organizations. Then are there any good and sufficient reasons for keeping separate these three Methodist churches that have never had any ecclesiastical differences among themselves? If it be true that each and all of us are utilizing every means at our command, to consummate the same great commission to disciple the world, then it naturally follows that our usefulness in Christian work would be manifold multiplied by working together as a united force. M. W. WATSON BEFORE THE NATIONAL FORUM. In his very able address recently delivered before the National Forum at the Miles Memorial Church, in support of his contention that the Versailles treaty should be ratified with the Lodge reservation, Mr. M. W. Watson said in part: "In order to vindicate the proposed Lodge amendments, it is necessary to show (1) that they are prudent, and (2) that they neither nullify the treaty nor embarrass the league in the exercise of its essential and legitimate powers. "An analysis of the Lodge amendments discloses three things that establish their prudence: "First: They leave no room for doubt, on the part of present or future statesmen, as to the conditions on which America enters the league. "Second: The Lodge amendments place on a democratic basis the membership of America in the league and her participation in the affairs thereof. "Third: The Lodge amendments guarantee the free and unlimited sovereignty of America over all domestic questions, and enumerate them. "Now, do the Lodge amendments nullify the treaty or impair the vigor and efficiency of the league? I count it sufficient, for the sake of brevity, to point out the just, prudent and harmless position of the Lodge amendments on the most vital article of the covenant, namely Article 10. "Mr. Taft very justly pronounces this article the heart of the covenant. It binds the members of the league to preserve against external aggression the territorial integrity and existing political independence, of all members of the league. The Lodge amendment to this article, it is obvious, does not decline to assume the obligations imposed by the article, but merely places upon a democratic basis the assumption and discharge of the obligations. "Since therefore, the Lodge amendments neither nullify the treaty nor diminish the essential power and usefulness of the league, and since they preserve the democratic ideals and sovereignty of America, and make it clear for future American statesmen on what terms America becomes a member of the league, I conclude that the Treaty of Versailles should be ratified with the lodge amendments." If. President Wilson vetoes the Knox resolution, the question of the adoption of the treaty with the Lodge reservations will come up again soon in the Forum for general discussion. General discussion of the question, "Should the Eighteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution Be Repealed?" was made the special order for the meeting at 8 p. m., Thursday, May 27th. THE GREAT METHODIST CONFERENCE. Prof. John R. Hawkins Re-elected Financial Secretary. St. Louis, Mo., May 20. The General Conference of the African Methodist Episcopal Church has elected the following persons as bishops of that denomination, and they were consecrated before a congregation of 10,000 people in the Coliseum here Sunday: Dr. W. D. Johnson, of Georgia; Dr. A. J. Carey, of Chicago; Dr. W. S. Brooks, of Baltimore; Dr. W. T. Vernon, of Memphis; Dr. W. A. Fountain, of Atlanta. The election was spirited, and a large number of candidates were presented to the delegates. The following were elected as general officers: Editor, Christian Recorder; Dr. R. R. Wright; financial secretary, John R. Hawkins; secretary of education, A. S. Jackson; secretary of missions, Rev. F. T. Ranken; secretary of church extension, B. T. Watson; editor A. M. E. Review, Rev. R. C. Ransom; editor Southern Recorder, Dr. B. W. Allen; secretary Allen Christian Endeavor League, Rev. S. S. Morris; editor Western Christian Recorder, J. D. Barksdale; secretary Sunday School Union, Dr. Ira T. Bryant. The conference voted unanimously for church union. Friday night in the Coliseum a meeting was held in the interest of Dr. Leroy N. Bundy and was addressed by Bishop Vernon, Bishop J. H. Jones and Attorney W. C. Hueston. Bishop Parks presided, and a fund of $1,500 was raised to assist in carrying Dr. Bundy's case to the Supreme Court. LIMITED DIVORCE GRANTED MRS.

The Harding people loaded Harry on a car and sent him to Ohio to organize the colored vote, and as soon as he struck the state the colored voters resented his coming, and they say in every town he went he made votes for Wood. Ralph Tyler had so thoroughly organized the colored vote that Harry Smith and one or two other lightweights, the only colored men for Harding in Ohio, were unable to make a dent in the Wood-colored organization. Then, Harry Clarke having made the Harding headquarters in Washington believe he was some statesman and some organizer, shipped him to Ohio to save the day, but he mussed up things—colored voters out there would not stand for an outsider. According to reports received from the primary election in Ohio every colored precinct voted heavily for Wood. Harding, because of his trip to Texas for the lily-whites, lost Ohio's colored vote, and it is rumored that if he runs for United States Senator again, after his defeat for nomination for President; the colored vote will be almost solid against him. The Harding managers here took Harry Clarke more seriously than we denizens of Washington take him. SMITH—HARROLD RECITAL. On Friday, June 4th, at Metropolitan A. M. E. Church, two of the race's leading artists will appear in recital, each an artist in their chosen fields—Ethel Hardy Smith, lyric soprano, of Boston, Mass., and Kemper Harrold, premier violinist, of Chicago, Ill. Rarely has musical Washington been permitted to hear these leaders from the East and the West. They come to Washington for the first time, after gaining laurels from other parts of the country. As a race, we are beginning to secure a very highly specialized group of musicians, who merit the unqualified support of the race. Madam Smith has appeared frequently with the race's leading tenor, Roland W. Hayes, now in Europe, in recitals. Both are products of the Vincent Hubbard Studio in Boston. They are sterling representatives of the methods of the efficient and experienced teacher. Her initial appearance was made with Mr. Hayes in Boston. Of this appearance a Boston daily says: "By the hearty recognition of her singing by the audience, Ethel Hardy Smith has cause to feel that Boston welcomes her among her best artists." The Musical Courier adds: "She has a tone of considerable range and clarity, and it carries sufficient material to make it expressive of the singer's appreciation --- ```markdown ``` ledership cannot meet the present is however.

Her concerts in Philadelphia were great successes. Her singing is brilliant, her voice vibrant, and her interpretation artistic. The East has accorded her its recognition. Kemper Harrold has established his reputation as an artist in the Middle West. At present he is head of the Conservatory at Morehouse College, Atlanta Ga. His reputation as a musical director has been made, and as a concert artist he has been called "the premier violinist of the race." He plays with marvelous ease and finish, and is a master of the technical difficulties of violin expression. One critic adds: "Kemper Harrold plays in most finished and artistic style, with brilliancy and very beautiful tone. He has no equal in temperament and expression." This is an unusual privilege which comes to musical Washington to hear these artists. If we advance musically as a race it must be through the encouragement which appreciative audiences and well-wishers give. This musicale is presented under the auspices of Hiram. Lodge, No. 4, F. A. A. M. This is an unusually large lodge and tickets are being distributed rapidly. Washington, ever appreciative of the best, is availing itself of this opportunity. U. S. SENATE DRAWS SHARP COLOR LINE. Senators Refuse to Vote Sufficient Funds to Keep Colored Schools in Proper Shape—Congressman Woodd of Indiana Takes Stand in Their Defense—Schools Face Crisis as Never Before Known. Why the U. S. Senate conferees handling the D. C. appropriation bill should so flagrantly discriminate in the manner they did against the colored public schools, in a recent conference is as puzzling as it is remarkable. Senators Curtis of Kansas, Smith of Maryland and Phipp of Colorado, who constitute the Senate conferences, have facts and can rectify a great wrong if they will. These gentlemen are well known, have long been staunch friends of the colored people, and it is hard to understand why they should at this critical time, in a cheap, chameleon way, cry economy and deny the colored boys and girls of Washington adequate school facilities. Let's see what confronts the colored schools next year, according to the present bill drafted by the Senate. If permitted to stand, this would mean that every $9.20 spent on a white school would be equivalent to spending $1 on a colored school, making the education of a white child over nine times as valuable as that of a colored child. Enrollment up to date shows 48,765 children attend public schools in the District of Columbia, 34,167 being white and the remaining 14,508 colored. If the appropriations were based upon proper proportion as to ratio of attendance, the colored schools should receive $1,020,000 instead of $260,000, as the Senate proposes. The situation is acutely alarming and can not be rated in any other way than as being grossly unfair, and unless some method is found to bring around a just, equitable basis, the colored schools of the District next year will face a crisis never before experienced. Some of the conferees have promised to look carefully into the affair when the bill comes up for final consideration and see that the right thing is done. Millions are being appropriated, yet extravagance is claimed when a few hundred dollars is asked to improve already, overburdened schoolhouses, almost toppling over. There is a certain official high up in the administrative circles of the white schools, whose attitude toward the colored schools may be regarded as suspicious. He is often seen darting in and out of the various committee rooms at the Capitol, and on one occasion went so far as to advise a prominent colored citizen who was seeking Congressional assistance in behalf of the colored schools that it would be good wisdom to let well enough alone and let things take their course. This same school official was there in the interest of the white schools and was doing everything in his power to get all the Congressional aid possible to make the system he represents second to none. It is just such sentiment as this white official expresses—"Let well enough alone; let things take their course"—that is making the berth of the colored schools extremely uncomfortable up there in Congress and causing the growing uneasiness that is felt for the welfare of the colored children. Too much praise cannot be given Congressman Wood of Indiana, who contended for the square deal and who pointedly opposed the miserly small sum set aside for the colored schools. Had not the views of this righteous gentleman prevailed, it is difficult to imagine what the termination may have been. One of the committee grew 'quite chesty when approached upon the matter. "Oh, no; it is nothing like that," he said. "But, Senator, here you are," interrupted the second party, unfolding a tabulated statement. "Take this and read for yourself." The Senator glanced hastily at the items and paused a while. "I never saw it in that light," he said. JUSTIFIABLE HOMICIDE. Montgomery, Ala., April 28.—"Justifiable homicide" was the verdict rendered by Coroner W. S. Stokes at the inquest over the body of Morris Barnett, who was killed in the home of Will Hall, a prominent farmer of Montgomery county. Mr. Barnett was shot twice by Mr. Hall in a scuffle between the two in Mr. Hall's home, according to the evidence before the coroner's jury. One of the shots took effect in the stomach and the other in the head. TO HAVE COLORED TROOPS. Boston, Mass., April 28.—Authority to organize a battalion, of colored troops as part of the National Guard of Massachusetts, was communicated to Adjutant-General Jesse F. Stevens from the military authorities in Washington. The previous lack of this authority had heretofore been explained by Governor Coolidge as reasons for not organizing a Negro unit in connection with the reorganization of the National Guard in this State. DR. HAYDEN JOHNSON. To the Editor of The Bee: Looking through the news columns of The Bee, under date of April 17, I read with very great surprise the statement of Dr. J. Hayden Johnson before the Senate committee. And when I finished reading Dr. Johnson's testimony relative to our race being two-thirds child and one-third savage this sad thought came to me: Though the Negro has never proved to be a traitor to the Stars and Stripes of this country, it is not infrequent that some damned rascal proves a traitor to his own race and is weak at the time he should be strong! We have the black Moody (evangelist), the black Sam Jones, the black Billy Sunday and some other black devils to contend with, and now conies the black James K. Vardaman, who dares to stand before the world and style his much-persecuted race as a race of savages! This Dr. Johnson has been swapping letters with Dr. Van Schaick, one the saver of souls, while the other may destroy the body of men, which reminds us that all of the "good niggers" are not dead yet. The savages of Washington should at least try to cultivate enough respect for this wise (?) doctor to not have him condescend"enough to visit their homes, or "cages," when in need of a physician of respectability. And the Parents' League will do well to pass this down the line. Yes; we now have the black Vardaman in our ranks, but may his influence be of short duration! J. C. Cunningham. EX-JUDGE HAMLET ANSWERS Copy of A Letter Sent To Senator Harrison The Day After Bruce Testified. Hon. P. Harrison, United States Senator. I desire to say that Roscoe C. Bruce tells a deliberate falsehood when he says I asked him to use his influence with Washington for some appointment. I not only never approached him (Bruce), directly or indirectly, concerning an appointment, but never knew he had any influence with Washington or anyone else. He is telling a falsehood in an attempt to deceive you. I was employed as one of the attorneys for the Parents' League, and upon investigation was satisfied that the greater part of the charges against him were true, and that he ought to be separated from the schools. I have nothing personal against him. Yours truly, (Signed) E. M. Hewlett. INTER-RACIAL AND RELIGIOUS CONGRESS. Senator Selden Spencer of Missouri and Senator W. H.

The women conferences were in favor of a minimum weekly wage of $16.50 for these workers, and the men for the lower rate. Mrs. Coralie F. Cook was one of the conferences representing the public, and stood for the higher rate of wages. The local branch of the N. A. A. C. P. has taken up the matter with the Minimum Wage Board, which will finally determine the matter. The members of this board are: Jesse C. Adkins, lawyer; Joseph A. Berberich, shoe dealer, and Miss Ethel M. Smith, representing labor. The interest of the N. A. A. C. P. in this matter is due to the fact that the majority of the workers in the laundry industry are colored women, and it is sought to award them a lower wage than has been awarded women workers in stores, hotels, restaurants and printing and publishing establishments. Here is an organization that is looking out for the interests of the humblest worker, and is trying to see that such worker shall suffer no discrimination on account of race or color. CONVENTION NOTES. Cohen Full of Fight. In Louisiana the fight between the "illys" and the "tans" waxes warm. Walter Cohen is coming to Chicago with a full delegation and is declaring that they will all be seated in the convention. What steps the "illy-whites" will take to thwart the "tans" in the determination to take the full delegation from the antagonists no one knows at this time. But one thing is certain, the "fur will fly" when the convention meets. Negro On Arkansas Ticket. Although Secretary of State Terrell of Arkansas has announced his intention to bar the name of J. H. Blunt from the ballots as the regular Republican nominee, the colored men are determined their candidate will appear. They have announced that Blunt is the nominee of the independent Republicans in the State, and therefore, they say, the Secretary will be legally obliged to give Blunt a place. Legal opinion here favors the colored men's contention. Thompson And Lowden Scrap. The Thompson-Lowden scrap will be taken to the meeting of the State Committee which meets on the 25th of May. The colored voters as a matter of course, are with Mayor Thompson and hope to see him win. Col. Otis B. Duncan, of Springfield, has been chosen as one of the alternates-at-large to the National Convention. Col. Duncan is one of the few ardent Lowden-adherents among the colored men in the State. Visitors Will Crowd Chicago. The present indications are that Chicago will be crowded with a large number of convention visitors. Accommodation for the colored visitors are ample and are being handled by a competent committee. The Associated Negro Press organization invites all to communicate with its offices in this connection. Night Prices, 25c, 35c, 50c. Matinees, All Seats, 25d Hiawatha Theatre Rufus G. Byars, Mgr.

Best of Photoplays and the Only Theatre on Seventh Street Owned by a Race Man --- The Tattler was right in making amends for its attack on Dr. A. M. Curtis. Doc is a quiet and pleasant individual. You never hear him insulting his patients or doing any dishonorable act. When you have been convinced that you have misrepresented your neighbor, it is not dishonorable to make the amende honorable, but if you are right, stand your ground. When Dr. Curtis went to the National Committeeman with Kelly Miller to give Jim Cobb a standing, to the effect that he represented the best element of the colored people in this city, I was anxious to know to whom they referred. There are many thousand colored citizens in this burg whom Cobb doesn't represent. If my friend, Dr. Curtis, will take the trouble to ask William Calvin to run a voting contest through the columns of The Bee as the most unpopular man in town, Cobb would win without an effort. Of course, Cobb is a genial fellow socially, and that is all. He knows that he could no more be elected a delegate from this city to a Republican convention than his associate on the ticket. He is the associate legal adviser of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People. The real legal adviser is Henry E. Davis. Cobb may be able to draw a legal document, but I have never heard him make a legal argument in my life. If he represents the best element of the colored people, as it is alleged he does. I have never known the element he is alleged to represent produce one thing that has been a benefit to the masses. Everyone in my mind with whom he associates and claims to represent are, Whitefield McKinley, Will Houston, Henry Lincoln Johnson, Wm. H. Lewis, W. H. Jernagin, Roscoe C. Bruce and their associates and companions. Will someone inform the Sage what this combination has ever done to elevate Washington? Will someone point out what banking institutions have been established and succeeded under this aggregation? Everyone named, no doubt, has held an office or has been an office-seeker, Kelly Miller has always been on both sides of the fence. It is claimed that he wrote a book on the world's war. Did he? I will be pleased if someone from this best element which Mr. Cobb is alleged to represent will point out some meritorious act for consideration. I remember a recommendation that was given him by one of the white officials under whom he served, which read like this: "He is a polite colored man." The Sage doesn't doubt this in the least. There are hundreds of polite individuals on the order of my friend Cobb, who are very polite to white people. White people like polite colored men, and the moment the other class exercises manhood, he is called an impertinent "darkey." Only polite colored men meet the approbation of certain classes of people, hence it is said they represent the better element of the masses. Do you catch? Some colored members of the bar cannot try a case unless a white member of the bar is associated with them. Then there are others who are able to paddle their own canoe. * * * Dr. Durkee intends to get rid of the drones at Howard University. He is convinced that the University can get along better without them. There are a few shams that have been menaces to the University. The Baptist Preachers' Union should recognize and get rid of the Sunday peddlers of newspapers in their churches. If this is not a desecration of the Sabbath, I would like to know what you call it. No up-to-date church will peddle merchandise in their church on Sabbath day. I would like to know what becomes of the doctrine that is expounded in the Bible. The Sabbath day should be kept holy. If a person wants a newspaper he should apply to a news stand, or subscribe for it. Church members should be taught to purchase their papers from news stands. Now we have three sets of delegates to Chicago. One set was elected by star-chamber and bogus proceedings; another set was elected in the parlors of a hotel, and the last set by votes of the masses. The National Republican Committee, I understand, or its national chairman, favors the parlor delegation or the hand-picked. If that is a fact, colored Republicans have no kick against Southern Democrats who have dis-fraised the colored vote in that section. If Dr. Van Schaick had left Roscoe C. Bruce alone and attended to his own business, he would have been Commissioner of the District of Columbia today. Superintendent Thurston should have aided the case when he was first appointed. Some sweet music is coming. Sedalia, Mo., May 18.—Frances Undine, a woman of our race, has been awarded special certificates by the Morristown (Tenn.)

Ark., May 18.—Alfred Banks was convicted and sentenced a second time to die last Friday for the alleged part he took in the uprising at Elaine last October. The trial of Ed.

Saren, a white taxicab driver. Two other brothers are in the custody of the authorities. Tampa. Fla., May 18.—An unidentified colored porter was taken from a northbound train on the Atlantic Coast Life and lynched by a mob for an alleged insult to a young white woman passenger. A deputy who had arrested the porter was overpowered and his prisoner taken from him.

This was the second time that Fountain had been convicted of the crime. Port Au Prince, Haiti, May 15.—American troops have succeeded in clearing the Carribean Islands of a large band of outlaws who have been preying on the islanders near Haiti for a number of years.

A heated discussion has been started by H. A. Wallace in the columns of the daily press as to the relative greatness of Frederick Douglass and Booker T. Washington. The colored people are being divided into Douglass and Washington camps and are waging a vigorous fight for their favorites in the voting for places in the Hall of Fame collection of great Americans. Up to the present time there is nothing to indicate that either of the great Negroes will be among those elected by the New York university commission. Jacksonville, Fla., May 18.—A "Own Your Own Home" campaign has been started among the colored people in this city.

SALVAVTION ARMY'S HOME SERVICE APPEAL. The Salvation Army is making its home service appeal for the year 1920. It is a city-wide appeal, regardless of color or creed. All business places are cheerfully cooperating in the effort. Each section of the city is under the direction of energetic public-spirited workers. In West Washington is Miss Martha E. Henson. In the Northwest are Mrs. Julia West Hamilton, Mrs. Julia Mason Layton and Miss Hallie Queen. In the Southwest is Miss Ada M. Henderson. In the Northeast is Miss Gladys Jones. Word has been received from several churches, permitting the placing of a Salvation Army barrel in their corridors for contributions, from which it is hoped that substantial results will accrue, and a similar request has been made to the public schools. There is not another association in existence that demonstrates Christ's "more ready to give than to receive" spirit and influence more than the Salvation Army; they are always Overseas it was the only organization that followed the boys through all sorts of hardships and ministered to their needs without receiving one penny in compensation, and it is the least we can do to show our appreciation—to help them all, we can in this appeal. Francis Wells is general director. LINCOLN WINS FROM HOWARD IN DEBATE A large audience of the adherents of Lincoln University and Howard University gathered in the Asbury M. E. Church, Atlantic City, on Friday evening, May 14th, to hear teams representing the two institutions debate the question, "Resolved, that compulsory arbitration of industrial disputes should become a national policy."

PARKER uses this table in his office in treating the spine and nerves. It is something entirely new and wonderful in construction. Its "universal joint" conforms with the principles of anatomy and physiology of the spinal joints and is remarkably adapted to manipulative treatment of the human spine. When it is remembered that the spine is the "backbone" of the body and contains the spinal cord, which gives off nerves to all organs and parts of the body, it will readily be understood that health and strength depend largely on the condition of the spine and spinal cord. Strain, weakness, irregular or abnormal condition of any region of the spine will affect the spinal cord, thus causing troubles in the organs which get their nerve supply from that section of the cord, be it the heart, lungs, stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels, uterus, bladder, or any other organs. Osteopathic treatment corrects the spinal troubles, releases the cord and nerves, regulates the circulation, strengthens the organs, and Nature does the rest. Dr. Parker pays special attention to cases of female troubles and troubles of the eyes.

Norman D.D., LL.D., Pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Cathedral Church, R Street Between Twelfth and Thirteenth Streets Northwest, Washington, D. C. The thirty-sixth anniversary of Nimrod Supreme Grand Encampment of the World and Queen Deborah Council, No. 1, subordinate lodges, courts, cadets and juveniles, Ancient Order Knights and Daughters of Jerusalem of the World, was celebrated Sunday, May 2. The order was established in the District of Columbia in January, 1888, under the generalship of Thomas Higgins, then grand state general. The growth of the order has been spiritual, numerical and financial, with the subordinate bodies in the States and District of Columbia. The order is the owner of its building. Nos. 1607 and 1609 Eleventh street northwest, this city, unencumbered, and is planning to erect a modern five-story structure, costing about $175,000 or more, by reason of having outgrown its present quarters numerically. Nimrod Supreme Grand Encampment and Queen Deborah Council, No. 1, control thirteen subordinate lodges, twenty-six courts and one commandery in the District of Columbia; also several lodges and courts in the several States of the Union. The purposes are fraternal and educational, and otherwise a beneficial corporation, paying sick and death benefits, as well as protecting the business and trades of its members. It is extending the opportunity to men, women and children to make application for membership in the several departments, where a future opportunity is offered, them as bookkeepers, stenographers, clerks and in other positions of usefulness. The supreme grand general, Edward Love, said, among other things, that Divine Providence has abundantly blessed us this year in health and strength; prosperity is everywhere our beloved order is planted, at home and abroad. In obedience to our time-honored customs and laws, he ordered that each male lodge and male member assemble on Sunday, May 2, 1920, at the Temple, at 6 p. m., and Queen Déborah Coun- tist Church, R street between Twelfth and Thirteenth streets northwest, to honor our God for past blessings and for continued favors of the Master for the future growth of the order, that friendship, harmony and truth become in deed and in fact practicable. The supreme grand secretary, Rev. James S. Chapman; introduced the master of ceremonies in fitting language and paid a compliment to the supreme grand lecturer, Perri W. Frisby, Esq., who was unanimously re-elected by the order to succeed himself. The supreme grand high priest, D. W. Clark, with his deputy priest, made an impressive effect upon the thousands of persons who heard the grand and glorious sermon. Supreme Grand Inspector Ikey Payton, Supremie Grand Land Marker Lloyd Cusenberry, Trustees Charles W. Burnett and Lander Perry, Supreme Grand States Deputy E. C. Ward, of Pittsburgh, Pa., Representative Jas. Gibbons, of Pittsburgh, Pa., and the representatives from the several States were present and enjoyed the spiritual treat. Past Prophetess Judge Charity Smothers and Prophetess Judge Maria E. Bias, with the council's secretary, Sister S. E. Slaughter, and Rev. James S. Chapman and Perri W. Frisby assisted in receiving the collection of $95.95. The supreme grand marshal headed the Knights of Jerusalem in their march to the church in a masterful and dignified manner. The military drill team of the ladies of the Daughters of Jerusalem, under the command of Captain D. W. Clark, instructor, is always on the job and cordially invites any drill team of ladies for an exhibition or a competitive drill for any kind of prize that one would like or desire. They travel far and near on all occasions. Their headquarters are at 1607-9 Eleventh street northwest. Captain D. W. Clark is instructor; Rebecca Payne and Maggie Lyles, lieutenants. The installation of the supreme grand officers will be held at the Ebenezer M. E. Church, Fourth and D streets southeast, Monday. May 31, at 7:30 p. m., at which time Past Prophetess Judge Lena B. Hart Jackson will install the officers of the female department, Sister Hart Jackson, Sister Charity Smothers and Sister Maria E. Bias, who have filled their offices with credit to themselves and the order, and they are among the leading ladies of the order and of the highest standing in the community. A reception will likely follow the installation ceremonies. Hereafter the assistant custodian of the Temple at 1607-9 Eleventh street northwest will have on sale the Washington Bee, and the doings of the several departments of the order will be reported. All matters of the lodges and courts should be reported for publication not lacer than Sunday evening, and all subscriptions will be payable at The Bee office, 1109-1 street northwest. A Distinguished Soldier at Walter Reed Hospital. Sergeant Henry Johnson, who distinguished himself in France as the first American soldier to rout German soldiers, is ill in Ward 26, Walter Reed General Hospital, Takoma Park, D. C. This brave colored soldier should be visited by Washingtonians, who should count it a privilege to minister to his needs and wants by presentation of flowers, fruit and with such other attention that will serve to remind him that his wonderful exploit has not been forgotten. Lomax M. E. Church had a good sermon preached to the members and friends Sunday, May 16, by Rev. Williams, of South Carolina. St. John's Baptist Church, Rev. R. J. Love, pastor, is doing fine work. The Sunday School's spelling contest entertainment was a success. Miss Marie Thomas and Master Robert Thomas were the prize winners. Miss Ada Thompson is superintendent of the Sunday School. The Macedonia Baptist Church also had an excellent sermon, preached to the members and friends Sunday, May 16, by Rev. P. Mitchell, of Washington, the former pastor. The Sunday School invite all n Sunday at 7:30 a.m. and Monday, May 31, all day. Both events will be for the benefit of the church and Sunday School. Rev. S. L. Moore and C. Taylor are the spiritual advisors; Richard L. Plummer is superintendent. A committee has been appointed from the members of the several churches in Arlington for the purpose of erecting an Old Folks' Home in the county. Rev. Carter Taylor is committeeman from Macedonia Baptist Church, Nauck avenue; also spiritual adviser. Subscribe for The Bee at the residence of R. L.
