SHILOH CHURCH IN NEW HOME ON NINTH ST.
Paid $80,000.00 Cash for Edifice. Institutional Church is aim.
An overflow crowd attended the opening services of Shiloh Baptist Church at their first services in their new home at 9th and P Streets, Northwest last Sunday.
The Shiloh Baptist Church ("Strangers' Home") of this city, after a number of years of earnest effort, have at last succeeded in securing larger quarters for its rapidly growing Institutional Church work. The history of this Church is remarkable in many respects; the Shiloh Church in Washington is really a successor to the Shiloh Church of Fredericksburg, Va., for in June, 1862, while a destructive war was being waged between the North and South, warning was given that a terrible siege was soon to start against the city of Fredericksburg; this caused between three and four hundred members of the Shiloh Baptist Church of Fredericksburg to take refuge in Washington, where twenty-six of the former members, after a year's residence in the District, met together in a backroom in Georgetown and organized what is now known as the Shiloh Baptist Church of Washington, and bought the property which they are now vacating for their New Church Home at 9th and P Streets, Northwest.
Shiloh Church of Washington had its beginning in a Sunday School, organized by J. McCleary Perkins, a white Union soldier. The scholars of this school were mostly adults of African descent, while the teachers came from both races; the Bible was the book from which morals and religion were taught, while Webster's Blue-back Speller was the constant companion' of children and parents while they were learning to read the Word of God.
Having organized their Church, the pastor, the late William J. Walker, and his members appealed to the white and colored Baptists of the District of Columbia to recognize them as a regularly constituted Church; this the colored Baptists refused to do but the Pastors and members of the First, the Calvary, the Temple and the E Street Baptist Churches, all white—met in council and after the usual investigation, formally recognized the Shiloh, as a regularly constituted Baptist Church and examined the ordained Rev. Dr. Walker as their first pastor. The Pastors composing that council were among the leading professors and ministers in churches and educational institutions in the city of Washington. Among them were, Rev. G. W. Sampson, D.D. pastor of the First Church and president of the Columbia College; Deacon John S. Poler, prominent business man in this city at that time; Rev. E. H. Graves, pastor of the E Street Church; Rev. Dr. T. H. Hawle and Rev. S. M. Shute, D.D. The original members of the Shiloh Church in Washington were, John J. Taylor, J. Mason Wilson, George Armstead, Edward Brook, Clement Morgan, Henry Frazier, Henry D. Peyton, Griffin Saunders, Alfred Pendleton, James H. Payne, James G. Sample and Edward Davis; Mesdames; Fanny Parker, Rebecca Payne, Rosetta Sample, Elizabeth Morgan, Annie Armstead; Lucy Davis, Jane Brown and Miss Lucy Minor and their pastor, Rev. William J. Walker. Many of these persons were free-born, while others occupied places of trust and responsibility in the city from which they came.
Proud of Sunday School
The fact, that the church grew out of the Sunday School accounts, no doubts, for the intelligence of its founders and for the great love which the church, during its entire history, has always manifested for its Sunday School and its Text-book, the Bible. While Siloho Church has had a phonemic growth, its Sunday School has outgrown the church and the desire to provide larger and better quarters for the Sunday School had very much to do with the willingness with which

RELATIVES LOSE IN CONTEST OVER WILL OF LATE WIFE OF REV. M. W. D. NORMAN
REPUBLI
RELATIVES LOS
OVER WILL
OF REV. M
The will of Mrs. Fannie Bridgets
Norman, wife of Rev. N. W. D. Norman, which was contested by relatives, was finally sustained in the District Supreme Court through Justice Siddons when the court overruled a motion for a new trial. The contest has been in court since last summer.
The late Mrs. Norman died at her residence here March 27th, 1923. Her will was filed for probate on the 18th day of May, 1923. Rev. Norman, who was named as the executor, filed the will through his attorneys, Offcut (white) and C. S. Cuney (colored). In this petition the ultimate value of the personal property was stated as $2043.51. The real estate included lot, 139 sq. 3098, premises known as 1725 3rd Street, Northwest, valued at $18,000 on which there is a trust of $14,000. The heirs at law are named as: Amaza Hill Jones; Fannie Hill and William Hill, all of Brooklyn, N.Y. On July 5, 1923, another petition was filed praying that a collector be appointed to collect the rents from the apartments for which tenants pay approximately $45 each.
Collectors appointed were Ralph Barnard and George W. Offcut, attorneys for respective sides, bond $2,500. The money inventory filed November 19, 1923 shows cash collected, $1,508.96.
The heirs at law filed a caveat upo which issues were framed and tried by a jury before Mr. Justice Siddons. The jury returned a verdict sustaining the will, March 14, 1924.
On March 19th attorneys for the caveators filed a motion for a new trial. This motion has been argued and submitted. On the 19th of April the Court over-ruled the motion for a new trial, thus ending the fight.
In her will dated April 20, 1918, (to which will Effie M. Middleton and Rosina H. Corrothers are attesting witnesses.) Mrs. Norman bequeathed to her sister, Amy E. Hill, $200.
To the executor as trustee, for her niece, Fannie Hill, her niece, Mazie Hill, and Willie Hill, $100 each. Although all of them are of age, these three trusts were to provide for the payment of premiums on their insurance and other necessary expenses.
To Fannie Hill the testarix bequeathed her jewelry, sewing machine, writing desk and piano. She directed that not less than $75 of the trust fund be used to purchase a stone to be placed at the head of Cherry Bridgets.
To Shaw University she gave her music and text books and "Teacher's Course," part of which is now in possession of Alice Peters.
To Mazie Hill was given white satin dress. To Ruth and Bessie Moore, Elizabeth City, N.C., children of Mrs. Mary Lipscomb of Portsmouth, Va., and Princess Richardson, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. R. C. Richardson of Washington, D.C., and the three Hill children, Eugene, Lizzie and Nannie and the two youngest girls of Arthur Gorham of Raleigh, N.C., are bequeathed the silver and trinkets.
All the rest and residue of the estate both real, personal, and mixed was devised and bequeathed to her husband, Rev. M. D. Norman, share and share alike. Rev. Norman was named as executor.
Newark, N.J.—Complete returns from the Presidential Primary election held here last week, show that Dr. W. G. Alexander of Orange, was elected, as alternate delegate-at-large to the Republican National Convention which will meet in Cleveland, Ohio, in June. Dr. W. G. Alexander received the highest vote of any of the alternate delegates-at-large.
Dr. Alexander, who is an ex-Assemblyman, it is stated, will likely have charge of the campaign of National Committeeman Hamilton F. Kean, who will oppose the re-nomination of U. S. Senator Edge of this state.
Senator Edge is in disfavor with the Negro voters of the state because of his refusal to support any measure either while he was Governor or as U. S. Senator for the benefit of the race.
WASHINGTON, D. C. SATURDAY, MAY 10, 1924
Y. W.-C. A. RAISED $7,172.60 IN CAMPAIGN
The membership of the Phyllis Wheatley Y.W.C.A. had the privilege of attending an Open Meeting of the Board of Directors on Monday night of this week and witness how their president, Mrs. Frances Boyce, and others elected by them conduct the business of the Association. Reports from the various committees showed work done along their special lines. Miss Shadd who has been treasurer from the beginning in making her report for the month, reviewed the Association's finances for the nineteen years.
From the first year's receipts of $309.82 and $72.93 expenses, the work has grown to $30,450.98, receipts in 1923, and $33,002.22 expenses for the same year. The total amount handled during the nineteen years has been $132,576.83 and so carefully have the records been kept and investments made that not one cent has been lost and there has been a deficit for only one year—1915 and that being only $4.00. Mrs. Miller, the vice-president, gave a short talk on Y.W.C.A. policy. The singing of residents in the House Glee Club added to the interest of the meeting. Miss Merritt announced the total for the 1924 campaign to be $7172.60.
Military Camp Offers Youth Big Opportunity
Military Camp Offers Youth Big Opportunity
Much interest is being manifested by the youth of this city in the citizens' military training camp which will be held for thirty days, beginning in June. All young men between the ages of seventeen and twenty-four are eligible for the training.
These camps are held every year by the Government. Expenses of all trainees for the thirty days are paid for by the Army. They offer a wonderful opportunity for young men to spend thirty days in army training in the great out-of-doors.
Already a number of local young men have made application to go to camp, which will be at Camp Meade, Md., but there is still room for many more. The time for filing applications is now getting short as the camp begins in June.
A number of cadets in the high school corps are taking advantage of this wonderful opportunity. All young men who contemplate taking advantage of the offer should get in touch with Captain West Hamilton, 1353 U Street, Northwest.

RACE WOMAN AT INT. LEAGUE FOR PEACE AND FREEDOM
RACE WOMAN AT INT. LEAGUE FOR PEACE AND FREEDOM
Is only representative of the Race at big Conference
Mrs. Ida Perry-Johnson of 522 Bowen Avenue, Chicago, Illinois, was the sole delegate of color to attend the International League for Peace and Freedom held at the Washington Hotel, 15th and F Streets, Northwest, April 30 to May 7, 1924. Mrs. Johnson was the delegate from the Attillia Protective Association of 3524 Michigan Blvd., Chicago. She was scheduled to make one address to the League, but so well did she present her subject on Thursday afternoon, May 1, that she was, by special request, invited to make another address that evening, and on the following day, she was one of five ladies who were selected to broadcast through the Washington Radio Corporation in the interest of the League.
Every country and nation on the globe of much size or note with the single exception of Russia was represented in this Congress. Many of the delegates were graduates from the Universities of Berlin, Denmark, Vienna, and any number of other great schools. Mrs. Johnson deserves great credit for so well representing our group.
Mrs. Johnson was entertained while in Washington by Attorney and Mrs. J. Franklin Wilson, and Mrs. James F. Bundy. She left for Baltimore Philadelphia and New York on May 7th, and will return to Chicago from the latter place. Mrs. Johnson is the wife of a grandson of the late Bishop B. T. Tanner, and while in Philadelphia will be the guest of her husband's sister, Mrs. Sadie D. Harrison.
Mrs. Johnson visited Howard University and Freedmen's Hospital last Monday and had the pleasure of meeting Dr. Emmett J. Scott, Dean Geo, W. Cook, Dr. Thos. W. Turner and a number of the teachers.
Empire Pharmacy To Move into New Home
Empire Pharmacy To Move into New Home
The Empire Pharmacy, located at 7th and N Streets, Northwest, will soon move to its new home at the corner of Sherman Avenue and Harvard Street, Northwest. The new home of the Empire Pharmacy is located in a section very largely populated by race people who have been without service of a good colored drug store. This section of the city is the most densely populated. The Empire Pharmacy is one of the largest drug stores owned by race men. In addition to the sale of drugs and sandy supplies, they manufacture a number of remedies under the trade mark of "Old East Indian Products." Many new features will be introduced in the new store, which will be the last word in modern and sanitary equipment.
Goins' Pharmacy Changes Hands
Goins' Pharmacy, located at the corner of 7th and S Streets, N.W., was recently purchased by Dr. T. Howard Garnett. This store has a splendid location and is doing good business. Dr. Garnett, who is a graduate of Howard, Class of '16, is well known in local druggist circles. Dr. Garnett was at one time one of the owners of the Garnett and Jernagin Pharmacy in Anacostia. The purchase of this store which was partly owned by white people, brings another drug store under complete control of colored people. This is the second store within the last month to pass into the control of Negroes. Dr. Garnett will carry a full line of drugs and sundry supplies.

SPLIT IN REPUBLICAN RANKS HERE MAY SEND TWO SETS OF DELEGATES TO CLEVELAND

The Company at Work
Written for The Federal Life Insurance Company
(By Simeon Cunningham)
Having reviewed some of the Public and Personal Aspects of Life Insurance and let us now see how the phases carry out their part of this phase of high finance. The business of a life insurance company consists, in the main, in soliciting and issuing policies of insurance planned to meet definite needs and in accordance with definite laws, and in carrying out the contracts thus made. This is accomplished thru the use of a well defined system involving several processes designed to prevent, in as far as is humanly possible, inaccuracies in records and to check and safeguard each transaction in this unique and highly interesting business. The individual companies interpret the provisions of the general system to suit their individual need but, if we study a few representative policies, following them tru all their phases in the workings of the particular company issuing them, we shall acquire a knowledge of the practical sid- of Life Insurance.
Let us then examine the Health and Accident Policy issued by the Federal Life Insurance Company to Mary Doe, age 25. After reading it, clause by clause, you are apt to say it is rather a formidable document but in that connection let me remind you that "a palace has many rooms and all have their uses—it is only the hovel that is so simple that it can be taken in at a glance." This policy, by reason of its super-

PUBLICAN RANKS
AND TWO SETS
IS TO CLEVELAND
in two sets of delegates being sent to
Cleveland or not; however, it appears
very probable that there will be, be-
cause the men in charge of the regu-
lar Republican organization here
elected their ticket last Friday night.
There is much dissatisfaction over
the methods of selecting the delegates,
and the time that was given the voters
in which to elect their delegates by the
men in charge of the Republican party
here.
Many men prominent in the affairs
of the city are connected with these
two conventions.
for features is, in verity, the place in the realm of health and accident policies fitted to house the majesty of its field.
The main thing to be noted is that by this policy we promise to pay one hundred dollars on the receipt of proof of the death of the Insured, or ten dollars weekly, according to the terms of the contract on the receipt of proof of sickness either acquired or accidental, during the continuance, according to the stated terms, of the contract; that it takes effect as to the date of issue after the delivery of the policy; and the consideration is forty-five cents cash paid with the application and the same amount due and payable on or in advance of the first day of each week thereafter during the continuance of the policy.
Now, what we wish to know and what an insight into the workings of the science of Life Insurance will teach you is—how does the Company know that the amount named as consideration will lenient it to perform its part of the contract?
In future articles we will endeavor to acquaint you with the basic principles of insurance calculations.
The science of Life Insurance offers a fertile field for the man and woman of business initiative and training. Its many departments provide work for actuaries, auditors, salesmen and clerical workers in their manifold operations. The Federal Life Insurance Company, as the baby company in the District is rapidly growing to the point of absorbing its share of this class of workers and offers a future field for the trained man and woman, along its lines, of tomorrow. An investigation of The Federal Life Insurance Company, the company of service and satisfaction, will lead you to a decision as to a safe investment and a dignified, clean vocation for yourself and children.

THOS. L. JONES ELECTED OVER JAS. A. COBB
THOS. L. JONES ELECTED OVER JAS. A. COBB
Cobb, however, is named as alternate after other candidates withdraw
The District Convention of the Republican voters which was held at 1324 New York Avenue, Northwest, last Friday night, resulted in the selection of William T. Galliher (white) and Attorney Thos. L. Jones as Delegate at-Large to the Republican National Convention to be held in Cleveland in June. The delegates were instructed for Calvin Coolidge for president. The Convention was made up of some ninety delegates of which only about one-third were colored. After the usual speeches and ceremony were over the convention settled down to the task of electing the delegates. Mr. Galliher's name was the first one voted on. He was unanimously elected. Then Attorney Thos. L. Jones's name was placed in nomination by Attorney J. Franklin Wilson; Marshall Snyder seconded the nomination. After this Dean Kelly Miller of Howard University nominated Attorney James A. Cobb, vice-dean of Howard University School of Law; Dr. Emmet J. Scott also of Howard University, seconded it. At this point Attorney Cobb rose and in a speech practically withdrew his own name from nomination.
Attorney Thomas L. Jones was elected unanimously. The election of Atty. Jones over Atty. Cobb was a big blow to the Cobb faction of the party. C. C. Glover, Jr., was nominated and elected alternate without any trouble; but the selection of the second alternate required more time. Several nominations were made including one white woman, one colored woman and Atty. Jas. A. Cobb. The convention then recessed for 10 minutes, after which time, through a series of withdrawals, the job of second fiddling to Atty. Jones was voted to Atty. Jas. A. Cobb.
The precinct elections were held during the first part of last week. The delegates convened on Tuesday night of last week at 1324 New York Avenue, Northwest, and formulated plans for the convention of last Friday.
A CORRECTION
The article appearing in this paper last week under the heading "Says Howard faction is without standing in Miss," contained two statements that were not correctly stated.
The sentence "The Secretary, Dr. D. W. Sherrod, then read the minutes of the last meeting of the Republican State Executive Committee, held in Jackson, Friday, were read and adopted." The date of this meeting was left out; the date was December 7, 1923.
The statement that "the other faction withdrew, carrying their majority to another room for the completion of their meeting" should have read "The minority headed by Perry W. Howard and composed of H. M. Daily, E. E. Hindman, John H. Cook and Eugene Robertson, withdrew and held some sort of a rump meeting in another room. The Regular Committee headed by M. J. Mulvihill, National Committeeman, Dr. D. W. Sherrod, now the Chairman but then the Secretary of the State Committee and E. F. Brennan, now the Secretary but then the Assistant Secretary, remained all business and adjourned long after the rump meeting headed by Howard had left the Court House.
"The Regular Committee meeting was presided over by Dr. B. T. Williamson, vice Chairman as M. H. Daily, the regular Chairman withdrew and went in another room to hold the rump meeting."

the organization agreed tolkihate its
old home on L/ Street and move to: its
new quarters at Oth and F- Stevets
Northwest. 4Dhe church, under the di
rection of its former pastor, Dr. Walk-
er jorganized and nursed into strong
churches; the following in the Distriet
‘of Columbia, namely: Zion, Enon, Mt.
Zion and Mt. Jezreel Baptist Churches
and two other churches in Virginia,
while Walker Memorial church ald
the ‘Trinity Baptist Church of this’
city, each taking a Targe number of
members from the nother church, |
took up housekeeping for themselves in
other parts of the city. .
_ Under the administration of the
present pastor, Rey, Dr. J. Milton
Waldron, Shiloh has carried ow large
work for the uplift of the many thous-
ands of people living in the alleys of
this city and for. the welfare of alley
ehildren and their mothers, The
church hax laid large emphasis upon
the study of the Word of God, both at
home and in the Church and it has
sustained a weekly “People's, Bible
School” for nates iw whi Sun-
day School teachers, licensed minis-
ders, missionaries and welfare work-
ers have been prepared for larger and
Better service in this city, in other
parts of America and in Liberia, South
Afyica, and’ South America, Many of
the men and women trained in’ this
school and church are active today
in numerous churches, schools and in<
dustries in ‘country districts and cities
in various parts of the United States.
‘The pastor says: “Persons going out
from: Shiloh oo are in great de-
gaand wherever they locate, as chureh
officers, teachers in Sunday School, and
leaders-in community uplift and in the
business. world.” a
Not only have Dr. Waldron and his
ebureh labored earnestly for those in-
“side and out of his organization, but
he und his people have been studying
carefully for-months-the needs of the
new field to which the church has
gone, and they have come t@ the con-
clusion, that those needs cannot) be
properly met by the Church,, unless i:
undertakes what is known in many
places as “Institutional Church Work,”
and with this end in view, Shiloh has
located in the midst of more than fit
teen “thousand colored people, and
within easy reach by street ears, ete.,
‘of many thousands of others; and
from now on Shiloh Baptist Church
(Steangers’ Home”) will be known in,
its work and activities as, “The Shi-
loh Baptist . Institutional Church.”
While it propeses to remain true tothe
doctrines of the Baptist Denomination
as set forth in the Word of God, it also
signs to: be undenominational—but
thoroughly Christian—in its institu-
tionat work ; while looking to care for
and thoroughly train in things us-ful
and practical the minds and hands «
those to whom it ministers.

‘The New ChurchHome, which Shi-
Joh has recently occupied was former-
ly owned by the Hamline M. E. Chureh
and was purchased of that organiza-
tion for eighty-five thousand ($85,000. )
dollars, by Shiloh and settled for on
the Ist and 2nd days of May. Dr.

West, Gourdin, Evans to Feature Howard Track Meet on Campus Today
PAGE FOUR
West, Gou
Record Crowd to see National Stars Compete
LEADING COLLEGES AND HIGH SCHOOLS ENTERED
The Fifth Annual Howard University Track and Field Meet slated to get underway this afternoon (Saturday) at 1 o'clock, promises to eclipse any sibilar event among Race colleges in history.
The presence of such national stars as Charles West, Ned Gourdin and Sandy Evans, Canadian half-mile champion, together with athletes from Hampton, Union, Wilberforce, St. Paul, Lincoln, Storer, Bordentown and a number of high schools, furnishes an entry list that with but a few exceptions, includes all of the leading Colored track and field performers.
The special pentathlon between West and Gourdin will of course top the bill. In fact there is a wide national interest in this particular event as both of these athletes will compete for a place o nthe Olympic team when the pentathlon finals are held.
The special 880-yard event in which Sandy Evans, the Canadian half-mile champion will race Ray Contee, the popular Howard star, is certain to be a thriller.
The college one-mile relay race is always interesting. With Howard, Lincoln, Hampton, Wilberforce and St. Paul represented this year, an added interest is being shown.
Other events that promise to be bitterly contested are the high school relay races, 100-yard and 220-yard intercollegiate and interscholastic dashes and the field events.
Cook, the Va. Union dashman is regarded as an almost certain winner of the dashes and a likely broad jump winner. Anderson, Howard's captain, should land most of the field events, although Hargrove of Hampton will give him trouble in the javelin throw. Much attention will be paid to Roland Richardson, the speed marvel of Shaw Junior High School. Richardson featured the work of the high schools last year and is credited with running 100-yards in 10 seconds, a number of times.

CLUB LOSÉS PAIR TO BALTIMORE
BLACK SOX
Baltimore, Md., May 4—A puny pop
fly that fell between Ben Taylor,
Stringbean Williams and Eggleton
with two outs in the last part of the
ninth cost the Potomacs the first game
of the double-bill with the Black Sox
here today by the score, 10 to 9. The
locals gained a big lead in the early
innings at the expense of Newsome,
Smith relieved the latter in the third
and held the Sox in check until taken
out in the eighth to allow Hampton to
pinch hit for him.
The Potomacs were three runs behind when Hampton was called to pinch hit and no more perfect could it have been done, for the Georgian sent the ball sailing over the left field fence for a home run. Two more runs were scored by the Potomacs in this inning, putting them two runs in the van.
However, this lead was shortlived as Manager Taylor sent in Bell, rookie southpaw, pitching in his first league game and he proceeded to put two on the bases via, hit and walk. Williams was called to the rescue and got by with one man scoring. In the ninth with two outs, Wilson singled, and then followed the Alphonso-Gaston act on Blackmon's fly and Manager Pete Hill won the game for his club with a clean single to left.
The second game was a walk-over for the Black Sox. Bell started it but after pitching four balls to the first batter was yanked for Smith, who was pounded freely. The bombardment was kept up on Newsome. The umpire came to the rescue and called the game in the seventh on account of darkness,
HOWARD SPLIT WITH VA.
SEMINARY
Howard won two out of three games to begin the local college baseball season. Va. Seminary split two games with the locals while St. Paul was defeated.
First C. I. A.A. Tennis Title to Howard
Richmond, Va.—The first intercollegiate Athletic Association's Tennis Tournament was very successfully staged on the beautiful and well-kept courts of the Virginia Union University last Saturday, before a large and interested gallery of tennis devotees. M. H. Goff, weathered some very keen competition and won the singles title for Howard, and, with his teammate, J. E. Walker, an able helper, were just able to gain an edge on the aggressive Union netmen, Cooper and Williams, by the count, 9-7, 6-2. One of the most interesting features was the singles finals in which L. G. Baker of V.N.I.I. wrested with the sterling player, Goff, for the single supremacy, Goff winning in three torrid sets, 3-6, 6-1, 8-6.
Bleachers had been erected and the courts were in first-class condition to welcome Union's guests. Howard, V.N.I.L. Hampton, St. Paul and Union were the schools represented. Good sportsmanship prevailed. The competent officials of the tournament were as follows:Mr. Henry Harris, official in charge. Messrs. C. E. Elder and C. V. Kelly, referees, and Coach Gideon Smith and H. D. Martin constituted the C. I. A. A. committee in charge of the tournament. The Association's debut in the tennis arena was very successful and indication point to greater things in the future. Pictures were taken of the winners, their trophies, and the officials.
BROKEN BONES SURE TO FIGURE IN EASTERN PENNANT RACE
(By Lloyd P. Thompson)
Just how three cracked legs will come around and to what extent the usefulness of their owners will be impaired, is a question that will weigh heavy upon the management of the Brooklyn Royal Giants. Baltimore Black Sox and Lincoln Giants, as each club suffered the misfortune of having one of its best men out of the game almost the entire season of 1923, due to a broken or fractured leg. Judy Gans of the Lincoln Giants, Charlie Lindsay of the Baltimore Black Sox and Irving Brooks of the Royal Giants, being the players referred to. The jinx has camped on the trail of the Brooklyn aggregation, for early this season, Tom Flail another member of the Royal Giants has been rendered "hors-de-combat" by a fractured leg.
ROYALS LOSE TO HILLDALE
IN NINTH
Showing the old punch that wins ball games Ed Bolden's Hilldale team threw the harpoon into the Brooklyn Royal Giants for their third straight in the Eastern Colored League Race, winning out in the tenth inning at Hildale Park in a game that teemed with excitement and was featured by home-run clouts, score 6 to 5.
Bobby Scott put the Brooklynifes in the running with a home-run drive in the 5th scoring one ahead. Clint Thomas and George Johnson socked out homers over the center field fence.
TECH HIGH WINS EASY ONE
FROM SHAW JUNIOR
Armstrong opened the baseball season with a 8 to 1 victory over Shaw Junior High. Cuto W. Adams is coaching the Tech nine this year. G. H. Murray, founder of the school's athletic activities, was unable to take charge of the team due to curricula assignments.
The outstanding weakness of the Potomacs to date is the lack of pep on the field. Only Brown and Goodrich show any signs of life on the field.
Eggleton has yet to throw a man out at second. The big fellow can't hit the target. He is still hitting good but is maintaining his same pace—a trot—on the bases and in going after foul flies.
HAMPTON LOSES LISTLESS
GAME TO VA. NORMAL.
(By P. Bernard Young, Jr.)
Hampton, Va., May 3—Hampton's baseball team continued to play in hard luck and lost a slow, listless game to Virginia Normal and Industrial Institute by a 14 to 7 score. Fortune started on the mound for Hampton, but he was yanked in the first inning after yielding four hits, one base on balls, and four runs. Hargrove took up the burden, and with few exceptions, pitched a brand of ball that

MOREHOUSE WINS FOUR LOSES ONE
(By A. Louis Irving)
Leaving Atlanta, on Sunday evening, the Morehouse Tigers played their last road game for this season. The trip was very successful as the Georgia boys won four and lost one in their trip through Alabama. The all round playing of Hawkins, a recruit, the heavy and timely hitting of Walker were the outstanding features of the trip. Coach Harvey presented a change in the line up and one that seemed to have worked like a clock. Williams was sent behind the plate in place of the veteran Kelley, McPherson went to centerfield in place of Williams and Hawkins fell heir to the keystone position where he performed in sensational style.
Morehouse 7. Tuskegee 5
Tuskegee, Ala., April 28—Morehouse defeated Tuskegee before a large crowd of rooters here this afternoon. Coach Abbott's boys put up a stiff fight but didn't have the punch to win. "Lefty" Coleman a recruit was coach Harvey's choice for mound duty in the opening game and was returned winner only because of the heavy stick work of his team mates.
Morehouse 2. Tuskegee 4.
Morehouse 2, Tuskegee 4
Tuskegee, Ala., April 29 - Tuskegee
evened up the count by taking the last
game of the series, 4-2. The game was
a pitcher's battle between Collins and
Ashley. Both teams had men in scoring
position several times, but the pitcher's tightened up. In the 7th
Tuskegee was able to push a man
across the plate and another in the
eighth. Morehouse was unable to score
after the second inning. The fielding
of Hawkins and McPherson for More
house and the pitching of Collins and
Ashley were the features of the game
Morehouse 7. Alabama 4
Montgomery, Ala.. April 30—Morehouse defeated Alabama State here this afternoon to the time of 8 to 4. A great deal of interest was centered around this game as Coach Harris of Alabama State is a Morehouse graduate and was a 4-letter man. It was Harvey's system against itself. The writer learned many things from him when he played tackle and had "Puss" on the end as a running mate. Batteries; Morehouse—Starr and Williams. Alabama State—Kindre and McMoore.
Morehouse defeats Selma
Morton House Mercedes Selma Selma, Ala.—Morehouse, defeated Selma University in both games of the two-day series winning the first by the score of 4-1 and the second 10-1. Marlin pitched the first game and was never in danger. Clark was on the mound in the second encounter for the Tigers.
"BUCK" HUNTS TEAM DROPS CLOSE ONE TO FISK
Nashville, Tenn., April 28—Before as pleasing a crowd as ever witnessed a baseball classic on Bemer Field, Roger Williams' nine, coached by Buck Hunt, suffered defeat at the hands of the Fisk Tigers, by a 7-4 score. Lunecford pitched a very good game for Fisk, allowing Roger Williams only six hits. In the fourth inning Seay drove the ball over the left field for a home run, making the score 5-3. In the sixth inning Jeffries of Roger Williams drove the ball over the wall for a home run. Fisk scored several runs from errors on the part of the Roger Williams squad. The batting stars of the game were Peoples, Jeffries, Mairley, and Porter for Roger Williams and Brown, Seay, Crawford Lunecford, Ennis, and Williams for Fisk. The game was very sensual and hard fought. Both teams struggled hard for victory, but Fisk proved the better. Porter, the no-hit king, was on the mound for Roger Williams, and with better support would have held Fisk to a closer score.
would have won the game if he had been properly supported. During his turn in the box he struck out ten men, while his opposing pitcher struck out eight. Armstead, however, was accorded better support in the pinches, and, backed up by the hitting of his teammates, emerged the victor. Hampton 101 112 001-7

IT IS YOUR DUTY TO SEE CHARLES WEST AND NED GOURDIN THIS AFTERNOON ON HOWARD CAMPUS
Every sport loving man, woman and child in the District should be present at the Howard track and field meet on the campus this afternoon. The extra attraction is the presence of Charles West, captain of the Washington and Jefferson College track team, one of the few Race athletes to attain such honors; intercollegiate pentathlon champion for 1923 and 1924, star football player and the man who was responsible for the Washington and Lee College football teams refusing to play a scheduled game with W. and J. Sharing honors with West as an attraction is Ned Gourdin, former Harvard track star, national pentathlon champion for 1921 and 1922 and holder of the world's broad jumping record. Both are almost certain to be members of the U. S. Olympic team that will invade France in July.
No greater two Negro athletes could be gathered for one event. Both have been credit to the Race. And not alone, is it an honor but it is the duty of every Race athletic follower and even those not interested in athletics to see these two individuals in action. They are scheduled to meet in a special pentathlon exhibition.
ROBINSON AND TAYLOR OWN POTOMACS
Many local fans are of the opinion that Clark Griffith owns a share in the Potomac Baseball Club. We do not know how this opinion was gotten but we know it to be erroneous and without foundation. As has been written in this column before the Potomacs are owned by two Race men, George W. Robinson, proprietor of the Roadside Hotel, Philadelphia's leading Negro hotel and Ben Taylor who also manages the club.
Changes in the Potomac line-up can be expected from time to time until the club gets going. The management has been negotiating for a number of players in the western league for some time. However, every player will be given a thorough trial, but if found wanting his place will be filled. Owners Robinson and Taylor are going to give Washington a winner. The fans supported the team in the first two series gratifyingly, in spite of unfavorable weather, and everything looks encouraging and the owners are quite optimistic. When the club returns here on May 30, a packed park will greet them.

FLOWERS RALLIES TO OUT
POINT ROBINSON
Atlanta, Ga., April 30-Although floored in the third round for the count of nine, Tiger Flowers arose from his hasty slumber and staged a gallant comeback to gain the referee's decision over George Robinson of Boston in 12 rounds here tonight.
Robinson's own eagerness to win and disobedience, of the referee's instructions cost him the fight. After knocking Flowers down in the third round Robinson neglected to retire to a neutral corner and had to be waved back by the referee which consumed at least three seconds and allowed Flowers time to get himself together.

ST. PAUL HOLDS SUCCESSFUL TRACK AND FIELD MEET (By J. L. Whitehead)
Lawrenceville, Va., May 3rd—The Third Annual Track and Field Meet which was held at Russell Field this afternoon was a big success in every respect. Thirty young men participated in the events. Class competition, particularly, was keen, and this part of the unique program was interesting and commendable. The Varsity events, however, were the main and outstanding features of the meet. The Varsity men performed brilliantly, and were victorious in all events of the intra-mural exhibition.
The Relay team which will represent St. Paul at the Howard Meet on Saturday showed up remarkably well; in fact, it surpassed by far the expectations of the spectators. It is predicted that the Tiger team will lead a thrilling trail at the National Capital carnival on May 10th. Captain Banks, Baker, McCoy, Jeffrieq and Sample will tread the cinders for the Orange and Black at Washington, Track and Field Coach, Hubert A. Taylor has definitely decided to enter six events at the Hampton Meet on the 17th.
POTOMAC NOTES
The Potomacs left the city Wednesday in the club's bus. They promised to beat the Hilldale club on Thursday and Saturday. Exhibition games will be played on Friday and Sunday and a barnstorming trip with the Black Sox through Maryland will begin on Tuesday.
Quite a delegation of District fans made the trip to the Monumental City for the game.
The holding features of the double-bill Sunday were furnished by Day and Holloway. Both robbed Pilot Taylor of hits.
Umpire Gibson didn't look any too good behind the plate Sunday. However, he missed them on both sides and no favoritism was shown. We have always held Mr. Gibson highly. He is wellknown to local fans having referred the "classic" last year. It will probably take some time for him to adjust himself to professional baseball.
"Bubbles" Anderson should be called "Silent" Anderson. We have seen him smile but once she came East and haven't heard him say anything yet. Aside from the habit he has of letting that third strike go by he looks fairly good.
Goodrich is still playing below form. Too many balls have been going between third and short. In his 1923 form he would "eat them up." We believe his eye sight has been affected.
Manager Taylor is a mighty popular individual in Baltimore.
Hampton's home run Sunday brought his total to two. One behind "Home-run Mason" of the Bacharachs.
Owner Robinson came down from Philadelphia to see his hired men perform. Losing the first game was a blow to him.
Big Show Coming to Howard Theatre
Theatre goers of Washington are in for a rich treat according to the management of the Howard Theatre when Eddie Hunter brings his big aggregation here the week of May 19th in "Strutting Time" a big musical revue. Famous colored musical comedy artists included in the company besides Eddie Hunter: Andrew Tribble, 'Dink' Stewart, Alberta Hunter, renowned "Blue" Singer, Alex. Rogers, Alex. Fairchild, Leroy Bloomfield, Norman Astwood, Mercia Marquez, Paul Bass, Wattier Crambley, Barrington Carter, John Turner, Al Young, Nina Hunter Kathryn Yarborough and others, including beavies of sunkist singing and dancing beauties and groups of fast-stepping dancing boys.
The organization is guaranteed first class in every respect. Song hits include a new dancing creation on the order of the Charleston called "Gee Chee." Other pleasing hits are "At Your Service," "Magnolia," "Baby Mine," "Shake Your Duster," "Pay Day," "Jazz Land Ball," "Laugh Your Blues Away," "Headin' South," "Sea of Love," "All the World Loves a Lover," "The Oof Dah Man" and 10 other numbers.
The Howard Theatre will be dark during the coming week as there were no shows available. However, there will be a big midnight show Friday night.

"Ruth" by Mrs. Margaret Stewart, dressed in blue, with the wheat of the field for decoration, was very impressive. Possibly the best characterization was that of "Sheba" by Mrs. Emmie Johnson, richly adorned in satins and jewels. "The dress with a million pearls" might easily be applied to the dress worn by Mrs. Johnson. "Esther" by Mrs. Araminta Anthony, with a blue dress and white beads appeared to great advantage.

THE FUNDAMENTAL QUESTION
speech, President Coolidge said: "The keeping America truly American is what citizenship is fully observed."
Indeed an important statement comes these United States. Coming, too, in makes it an outstanding statement of the country. We trust that the President statement and will see to it that every citizen should have the opportunity to "own of citizenship."
Thousands of native born American cities States, from Virginia to Texas, who of suffrage. "The fundamental question the Constitution not enforced so that woman of citizenship?"
Cannot be truly American unless good and good government cannot be maintained. Good citizenship cannot be realised by the executive officers fail to enforce help to inspire good government. The greater crime, stealing the franchise, means or stealing "teapot dome"? Was eight long years for the suffrage requirement suffrage to every woman. And it is the duty of the President, delivered of that right. Hence there is a President—"When will this duty be addressed apathy toward voting in the State of Texas is due to depriving the Negro states. Out of the 80 congressionalaving out Texas), only nine of them, 15,000 for the Congressmen now reps in the 68th Congress.

The total the twelve Congressmen was 75,089. more than 10,000 votes, the remainder. The whites do not care, for the fraternity they have deprived the Negro from a franchise and hence only one party before, the fundamental question for men will the chief executive discharge right of franchise is not stolen from one country?
BLEUGHERTY AND THE CONSTITUTION
General Harry M. Daugherty really amendedments should be enforced—so General under President Harding, the Coolidge.

DR. T. HOWARD GARNETT,
In a recent speech, President Coolidge said: "The Fundamental question of keeping America truly American is whether the obligation of citizenship is fully observed." This is indeed an important statement coming from the President of these United States. Coming, too, in this a presidential year, makes it an outstanding statement of the chief executive of the country. We trust that the President realizes the import of that statement and will see to it that every native-born American citizen should have the opportunity to "fully observe" "the obligation of citizenship."
There are millions of native born American citizens living in the Southern States, from Virginia to Texas, who are deprived of the right of suffrage. "The fundamental question" with them is: "Why is the Constitution not enforced so that we can exercise our 'obligation of citizenship'?" America cannot be truly American unless good government is maintained. Good government cannot be maintained without good citizenship. Good citizenship cannot be realized in a government when the executive officers fail to enforce the franchise laws which help to inspire good government. Which is the greater crime, stealing the franchise rights from native Americans or stealing "teapot dome"? Washington and his army fought eight long years for the suffrage right. The fifteenth amendment guarantees suffrage to every citizen of the United States. And it is the duty of the President to see that no citizen is deprived of that right. Hence there is a "fundamental question," Mr. President—"When will this duty be performed?"
The unprecedented apathy toward voting in the Southern states from Virginia to Texas is due to depriving the Negro of his suffrage in those states. Out of the 80 congressional districts in the South (leaving out Texas), only nine of them polled a vote of more than 15,000 for the Congressmen now representing (?) these districts in the 68th Congress. Seventy-one of these districts polled a vote ranging from 1,954 out of 212,152 inhabitants in the Third District in Louisiana, to 14,996 in the Sixth District of North Carolina. Georgia has a population of 2,895,832 which gives her twelve Congressmen. The total vote cast in 1922 for these twelve Congressmen was 75,089. Only one of them polled more than 10,000 votes, the remainder polled from 4,000 to 7,000. The whites do not care, for the franchise themselves because they have deprived the Negro from exercising his right to the franchise and hence only one party exists in the South. Therefore, the fundamental question for the Southern States is, When will the chief executive discharge his duty and see that the right of franchise is not stolen from one-tenth of the citizens of this country?
DAUGHERTY AND THE CONSTITUTION
Ex-Attorney General Harry M. Daugherty really believes the Constitutional amendments should be enforced—sometimes. He was Attorney General under President Harding, and for six months under Coolidge. During that time he failed miserably in enforcing the 13th, 14th and 15th Amendments—as well as the 18th. In fact, it appears that he was personally one of the chief violators of the spirit and purpose, if not the letter, of the 18th. Now Mr. Daugherty is very anxious to prevent the Wheeler committee from getting copies of his telegrams from the telegraph companies. To block their efforts Mr. Daugherty obtains an injunction based on the 4th and 5th Amendments to the Constitution of the United States which he, as Attorney General, violated and failed to enforce.
According to the testimony given before the Brookhart-Wheeler investigating committee, Attorney General Daugherty was the worst crook and gangster, and the boldest grafter that ever held high office in the United States. His tenure of office has done far more to break down confidence in justice, law enforcement and respect for the Constitution that that of any official of recent history. Daugherty has permitted the Ku Klux Klan to thrive and gain a strangle hold on the Government. He has condoned abject slavery in the form of peonage. He has acquiesced in the flagrant abridging of citizenship rights in the South, along with unblushing grafting in every conceivable form in which an official could engage. Yet, in the face of all of this, he comes to invoke the protection he has denied millions of citizens of this country.
On and after Monday, May 12, the SEVENTH STREET PHARMACY, 1748 7th Street, N.W., corner S Street, will be under the management of Dr. T. Howard Garnett, Prescription Specialist.
You are especially invited to make your Headquarters for Drugs, Chemicals, Sundries, Sick Room Supplies, Rubber Goods, Toilet Articles, Cigars, Tobacco, Ice Cream and Sodas that are pleasingly different.

SOMETHING OF INTEREST
"The Wicked House of David"
Mr. Coolidge Changes Attitude
Is America Growing More Serious
Control Your Worries
We are forced to disagree in some respects with the writer whose criticism concerning "The Wicked House of David" appeared, in The Washington Tribune last week. He claimed a second showing would be fatal, financially, and led one to believe that such was a just desert. Perhaps his first claim is true, but certainly his last is false.
A. B.
After witnessing the performance, we were struck with the blind faith which ran through the play and the wretched condition it left those who possessed that faith. Many religious cults are founded upon blind faith, and the votaries are left in no better circumstances. Religions make us, in many instances, sacrifice all, accept even the poisons of life, for promises, though dressed in the most elaborate manner, which are, at best, empty.
The play depicted a condition true to life—one which the learned know but one which the masses did not grasp. The safety of the upper class lies in its ability to keep the masses in ignorance of the emptiness of promises. "The Wicked House of David" and its like bids fair to direct attention to the wrongs perpetrated by the classes upon the masses. The writer under question no doubt belongs to the upper class, or subscribes to its policy.
Each of us years for happiness. We are willing to make sacrifices to obtain it. But the upper class, because of the austerity of its position, makes us confuse pleasure, which is illusive, transitory, unsatisfying, with happiness, which is not in self-indulgence, but in self-mastery, the end. Or it takes advantage of our ignorance and leads us to believe that by this or that sacrifice—a sacrifice which allows it an advantage—we may obtain the happiness desired.
We congratulate Andrew Bishop and Cleo Desmond and the management of the Howard Theatre for so noble an undertaking. A play is bad or good, not because some authority has decreed it to be so, not because of the dictum of Church or Bible; but because of the relative amount of unhappiness or happiness, folly or intelligence which it produces. A test made upon this basis will not lead you far astray. May the efforts of the cast not be in vain.
President Coolidge has changed his attitude toward the legislative branch of the Government in the matter of the Senate's investigations of the Department of Justice.
He has directed, upon a Senate resolution of request, the new Attorney General to defend the Brookhart committee whenever it meets resistance in inquiring into the administration of the Department of Justice. This Department has denied the right of Congress its official papers. Ex-Attorney General Daugherty still denies that right. Even his brother denies the right of congress to inspect the books of his bank.
But now the Department under investigation assigns a special assistant to the Attorney General whose duty it is to appear in court on behalf of the Senate committee.
Quite a change from the bitter Couzen message, about a month ago, which President Coolidge sent to the Senate and which was interpreted as an attack upon the whole range of the Senate's investigating activities.
From a recent vote taken among the owners of receiving sets to ascertain what programs are most in demand the radio broadcasting company, which took the vote, feels that it has just cause to believe that America is growing more serious.
Radio fans want serious talks, informative courses and classical music instead of light entertainment or jazz. A similar report comes from the Chauqua university authorities. The American public wants humor, but it must be tinged with something of a religious or educational value.
-We are seemingly growing more serious in spite of all that has been said about the fly-away quality of modern youth. Magic, jubilee singers, impersonators, and jazz are fast giving way to plays, grand opera, and lectures by men who are recognized in their fields.
Trouble, worry is a fact of life, and no more philosophy can make it otherwise. Financial difficulties, discouragement, sickness, real trouble, sorrow are our common lot. There is no denying the fact that they are the sources of our worry. We should not
Theatrical News
THOMAS MEIGHAN at the REPUBLIC
Movie fans all over the country have been asking for a picture with Thomas Meighan in a crook role—something on the order of "The Miracle Man." Out of a choice of over a thousand stories, Meighan picked what he thought would make an ideal crook story and the result is "The Confidence Man" which will be shown at the Republic on Sunday, Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday, May 11, 12, 13 and 14. It is a tale of a master swindler with Meighan as the king of the "get-rich-quicks." Beautiful Virginia Valli plays opposite Meighan.
"The Dawn of a Tomorrow" with Jacqueline Logan, David Torrence and Raymond Griffith will be shown on Thursday, Friday and Saturday, May 15, 16 and 17. It is contrasting drama of London society and slums, in which rich and poor travel the path to happiness together. "The Dawn of a Tomorrow" was directed by George Melford, the man who made "The Sheik."
The entire week beginning Sunday, May 18 will bring to the Republic, Cecil B. DeMille's first production since "The Ten Commandments." It is a gorgeous modern DeMille love-drama entitled "Trumph." In the cast are Leatrice Joy, Rod La Rocque, Victor Varconi and George Fawcett.
"The Wicked House of David." as the theatre-going public of Washington saw it last week at the Howard Theatre, presented by Mr. Andrew Bishop, assisted by Miss Cleo Desmond and a highly talented cast of artists, was an exceedingly cleverly designed interpretation of what modern life means to those, who fall and accept the alluring inducements the human wolves of the underworld offer when through disguise and cunningly set intrigues, innocent womanhood becomes the supreme sacrifice.
The play was a remarkable mixture of pathos and humor, with plot well cared for, often over stepping the restriction of polite propriety, but gratifying to those who scanned the scenes with halfway approval, as the audience pondered—at times almost spell-bound.
Now and then there were points in the show, that might be noted as worth while, bringing out some feature intensely stirring.
Then moved by the moral of the story, "Look before you leap," it became just plain life, and those who heard the benediction pronounced, sat in morbid silence.
And so, "The Wicked House of David," leaves us with satisfaction that is betwixt and between, but in every way, egregable.
PATSY RUTH MILLER IN
"NAME THE MAN"
Patsy Ruth Miller, the eighteen-years-old Goldwyn actress, received the unusual distinction of being accorded the ingenuue lead in "Name the Man!" Victor Seastrom's first Goldwyn picture, an adaptation of Sir Hall Caine's novel, "The Master of Man," which will be the attraction at the Broadway theatre for 2 days, beginning Friday. Miss Miller plays opposite Conrad Nagel. Mae Busch has the role of Bessie, the tragic heroine, in this dramatic picture. Miss Miller, who has reached her greatest opportunity in this picture,
turn our backs on them, but look them straight in the face.
It is no easy task to stop worrying. Yet we can at least control the passive type of worry. We too easily allow ourselves to get into the habit of worrying. If we should scrutinize all our worries, we would have much cause for laughter—it is so absurd! We would discover there is nothing at all over which to worry. We are worrying merely because it is a habit. Let's pick up our worries and carry them blithely. Why indulge in self-pity; why get more tragic than is necessary? There is always a way out if we but take a courageous attitude without denying that the trouble, whatever it is, exists. Why shrink from the future? Let's get into action and strengthen ourselves for any trouble which may be ahead.
Sprinkle enough of these fifteen-minute, periods throughout the day to make a respectable assortment of hours—hours of good thinking which are bound to have a splendid effect in counteracting the bad influence of your past hours of worry, and establishing more wholesome habits.
Control your worries. A wonderful power for happiness lies in this practice.

has been in the movies only about two years. Born in St. Louis, she was educated there and lived just as ten of thousands of other American girls until her parents motored to Los Angeles.

2. I will learn all that I can about the history and traditions of my Race.
3. I will use my eyes and ears to detect slander against my Race, and I will champion my Race wherever I may hear such slander.
4. I will be proud that I am a Negro because God made me one, and, being a Negro, I will do all that I can to add honor to my Race.
AS THE LONE TRAVELER
I sat on the bank of a river
And chancing to shift my eye:
I noticed a lonely traveler
Flying through the sky.
He neither stopped nor tarried
He never changed his course—
He was a migrating black bird—
This traveler of whom I boast.

Above the earth so high
This lone fleet traveler
Of the sky.
Before my eyes he vanished
Into the mist above the lea
Just as you and I must dash
Into eternity.
Mother! Oh mother, how would I do without thee,
When troubles confront me and there are problems of life to be solved?
Who would solve them?
No one but mother would solve them.
Then how could I do without her?
There is no one to take your place, dear mother.

Mother! Dear mother, how can I e'er forget thee?
Never, no never.
Mother, whenst thou art gone thou art gone forever, no more thy loving face to see, and in the home a vacant chair is continually sitting there.

AN AMERICAN SOLDIER
Dear Editor: I am writing to tell you something concerning the life of Colonel Young. He was born in Kentucky, March 12, 1864. He grew to be long remembered and was known throughout the world as the Hero of His Race. He received his preliminary education in Wilberforce University, Ohio. When he was 20 years old he was appointed from Ohio to Military Academy, West Point, June 15, 1884.
In 1889 being 25 years old he graduated a lieutenant on August 31. He was the third and last Negro to graduate from West Point.
This distinguished soldier was the only colored man to attain the rank rank og Colonel in the American Army.
On December 22, 1896, he was appointed a 1st Lieutenant of Cavalry. February 2, 1901 he was made a Captain. In 1912 he was appointed a Major. July 1, 1916 he was honored by being made a Lieutenant Colonel.
He retired as Colonel July 22, 1917. He also served with General Pershing in Mexico, and was talented as musician, composer, poet, author, and dramatist.
During the thirty-eight years of his military career Colonel Young reflected the highest ideals of a trained soldier in pride, valor, and devotion and early developed to be a tactician of exceptional ability. Steadily he grew into the affection of his people and for more than a generation was referred to as the Hero of His Race. His last contribution to America, was a map of Haiti, which was used by the marines there, the first one ever made, and a map of data concerning "Africa and its people." He died January 8, 1922 in Lagos, Southern Nigeria, British West Africa.
His remains arrived in Washington, June 1, 1923, completing its journey of thousands of miles from the wilds of Africa. Final tribute was paid in the massive marble amphitheatre at Arlington, Virginia, where his body now reposes with the Nation's heroic dead.
Colonel Young was 58 years old when he died. To the minds of the world Colonel Young was the greatest Hero of His Race.

Bowman, 2nd tenor; Mr. Vernon Hill, 1st bass; Mr. Majors, 2nd bass The audience went wild over the "Mule's Tail Bidding the Parson Fare Well," a Dunbar poem recited by Mr. T. A. Heathman, Mr. Majors' vocal solos and Mr. Burgess' violin solos stirred their hearers to a storm of rapturous applause.
"Soft and Deep" by Stewart and "My Lady Chlo" by Leighten were outstanding renditions by the octette, Dr Dykes at the piano, as usual, charmed in sympathetic accompaniments. She is a marvel at the piano and her touch and technique compares favorably with that of many great virtuosos of today. She is a "walking piano" so to speak.
Mrs. Eliza T. Frazier of 1824 11th Street, Northwest, and Miss Beatrice Logan were painfully injured by an explosion of one of the presses at the Buerau of Engraving and Printing last week. Both of the young ladies are confined to their homes as a result.

Hatians Protest to President
New York City,
May 1, 1923
To His Excellency, Mr. Coolidge,
President, United States of America,
White House,
Washington, D. C.
Mr. President:
I have been requested, once more, by the Union Patriotic of Haiti and the Haitian People as a whole to write you, through the medium of the press, to beseech you to pass orders for the Haitian Government to call the primaries in the cities where elections, for the reconstitution of the legislative chambers, were not completed. At the time of election last January, the Haitian Government, under the pretence that it had received word from Washington prevented the peopole from manifesting their constitutional rights, resorted to all kinds of lawlessness to discourage and scare them from going to the ballot box.
Nevertheless, though backed by the American occupation, headed by the High Commissioner, Mr. Russell, who is the supreme chief of the Island, it succeeded only partly in its disgraceful attempt, as Port-au-Prince, Jacmel, Coteaux, Port-de-Paix and Gonaives could elect their representatives. The defacto Government, still backed by the occupation, has been maintaining, since, the same attitude towards the people. Only you, therefore, Mr. President, can relieve this unbearable situation. A mere decree from you can change the physiognomy of Haiti in a few
30 per cent reduction on all orders.
No job too large
No job too small
Orders placed now completed by May 30. The Largest Assortment of Monuments this side of
hours.
The people do believe that you will take into consideration their appeal to you, inasmuch as they ask nothing but justice and fair play.
I have also been asked to tell you that up to now Messrs. Jolibois Fils, Elie Guerin, Antoine Pierre-Paul, Georges Petit, Oscar Savain and Phileas Lemaire, are still being illegally detained in prison, where ill-treatment and humiliations are not spared them. Those above-named journalists have nothing to do with the Gendarmerie, as the interested party wanted to make the American public believe.
I beg to remain, Mr. President.
