The body and funeral party were escorted from the family residence at 937 E R Street, to the church by the entire Grand Commandery under acting Grand Commander John Stockton who had been the deputy to the deceased commander, with Simon, Henderson, Gethsemane and Mt. Calvary commanderies. The Grand Lodge of the District with Grand Master Chas. P. Ford and the subordinate Lodges followed the family and conducted the solemn rite of the ancient order.
The casket was borne into the church and to its final resting place in Arlington Cemetery by three Master Masons and three Knights Templars. The honorary pall bearers were follow members of the Fortnightly Medical Reading Club of which Dr. Thompson was a pioneer member.

REV. NORMAN'S CONDITION
REMAINS CRITICAL
The condition of Dr. Moses W. D. Norman, pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Church on R Street, remains just about as it has been since he was obliged to take to his bed more than a week ago with a serious throat malady.
Considerable interest is manifested in the developments of his illness as he has for many years patored one of the largest churches in the city. This interest has been much increased by a bedside marriage to Miss Ethel Fitzhugh last week. The bride and a niece, Mrs. Lenore Ruffin, are constantly in attendance on the patient. Mrs. Ruffin is said to be the only living relative of the divine. For a long time she was his housekeeper. She was in Atlantic City when he was taken ill and hastened to the Thirteenth Street home of her uncle where she remains.
In the story of the marriage in last week's issue of the Tribune, Rev. Francis E. Pree, who performed the ceremony was mentioned as being "unattached." This was an error. Rev. Pree is not attached to a Washington church, but his pastor a circuit of three churches in nearby towns: the Providence Baptist Church in Leesburg, Ebenezer Baptist in Ocoquan, and Mt. Olive Baptist in Rectorown, Va. He is a Graduate of the school of Religion of Howard University and resides at 2035 Fifth Street, Northwest.

DR. ROBT. McGUIRE STRICKEN ILL AT SUMMER HOME
Dr. Robert McGuire, a widely known retired druggist residing at 531 T Street, Northwest, is seriously jill at his home, having been stricken while at his summer place, Lanham, Md., on the National Defense Highway on Saturday, July 24. He was promptly brought to his city residence where he is under the care of Dr. John W. Mitchell. Dr. Mitchell's efforts are being augmented by the almost constant attendance at the bedside of his-wife, Mrs. Julia McGuire, and his daughter-in-law, Mrs. Virginia Richardson McGuire, wife of his only son, Dr. Robert McGuire. Dr. McGuire has been an active figure in the business life of the city and the strict adherence to his business that commanded the respect of the community was responsible for the need for him to retire last year from the store at Ninth and U Streets, Northwest, where he had conducted a pharmacy since 1908 when a partnership that had prevailed between him and Dr. Board in a store on Fourteenth Street, for many years had been dissolved in order that each might have his individual business. The partnership venture had been established shortly after the doctor's graduation from Howard University in 1903. On Thursday afternoon, the patient's condition was reported to be somewhat improved.

OLDEST ALUMNUS OF HOWARD UNIV. DIES SUDDENLY
Rooks Turner, the last 'of three graduates of Howard University class of 1877, and until his death the oldest living alumnus of the school, was buried on Wednesday afternoon from the Second Baptist Church, Rev. J. L. S. Holloman conducted the ceremony, assisted by Rev. Francis E. Pree. Grayson McGuire was the undertaker. Mr. Turner died suddenly on Thursday, July 22.
He is survived by a widow, Elizabeth R. Turner, two sons Arthur and brother and Mrs. Sarah Bowe, a sister.
Rooks Turner was born on October 24, 1844, at Elizabeth City, North Carolina. Not being allowed to attend school until after the Civil War, he entered the first grade when he was twenty-one years of age at a school for colored people established at Elizabeth City by the Freedmen's Bureau and taught by white persons from the North, among whom were George A. and Fannie A. Newcome and Emily S. Peduzie. Here he received sufficient instruction to be able to enter the Preparatory Department of Howard University in January, 1870, with a class of forty-nine students.
He remained at Howard University seven and one-half years, graduating from the Preparatory Department in 1873 and from the College in 1877, in a class of three students. His classmates were Wiley Lane and J. T. Snowden.
Throughout his preparatory and college courses he taught school in North Carolina during the summer and was further assisted financially by Senator George F. Hoar of Massachusetts, one of the many Northern philanthropists who came to the rescue of hundreds of worthy and ambitious Negroes during those trying days of the Reconstruction period. Upon graduation from Howard University, Mr. Turner returned to North Carolina, where for nearly twenty-five years he was engaged in educational work among his people, teaching first at the public graded school in Elizabeth City and afterwards at a normal school founded by himself and sold by him in 1886 to the Roanoke Baptist Association. This school is now known as the Roanoke Collegiate Institute. Mr. Turner was married in 1880 to Miss Elizabeth Freeman, of North Carolina, and from the union have come four sons, three of whom have been students of Howard University; Rooks, Jr., a student of the Medical School at the time of his death, in 1912; Arthur, a graduate of the Law School, class of 1912, and at present an attorney of Detroit, Michigan; and Lorenzo D., a graduate of the Academy, class of 1911, of the College of Arts and Sciences, class of 1914, and at present professor and head of the Department of English at Howard University.
In 1897, Mr. Turner became a teacher in the public school system of Montgomery County, Maryland, from which in 1922, after serving for a period of twenty-five years, he was retired on a pension. In all, he taught school fifty years, during which time he was an active worker in religious, fraternal, and civic organizations. He is also the author of a number of pamphlets and magazine articles on education.
Since 1922 he had resided in Washington, D.C.

CULPEPER COUPLE ELOPE
Culpeper, Va., July 29—Miss Ruth West, daughter of a prominent merchant of this city, eloped last Tuesday, July 27, with Mortimer Marshall, also of this city. The couple left here without either of their parents knowing their destination. They went to Philadelphia where they were married. Their parents were notified by wire.
REFUSES TO GRANT MANDATORY INJUNCTION
Chief Justice Walter I. McCoy, declined on Thursday, July 29, to issue a preliminary mandatory injunction forcing Edgar E. T. Newton and his family to evacuate the premises at 77 Randolph Street, Northwest, that they had purchased and occupied some weeks since contrary to the covenant of the North Capitol Association, forbidding sale to, or occupancy by, Colored people. The caption of the case in court is Wallace vs. Russell; Frank S. Wallace representing the covenants opposed to colored residents in the district.
A mandatory injunction was prayed for. Justice McCoy, after an oral hearing, asked the attorneys to file briefs. Henry E. Davis and George E. C. Hayes representing Mr. Newton and his father-in-law, Robert H. Peterson, submitted briefs for their client. Mr. Morgan of the legal firm of Douglas, Obear and Douglas, who represented the sellers of the property, Mr. and Mrs. Edw. G. Russell, who are alleged to have violated the pledge of the association not to sell property to Negroes.
In denying the plea for a mandatory injunction, Chief Justice McCoy declared that "no emergency existed." The Newtons thus remain in possession until the case is tried on its merits.
In their petition the plaintiffs averred that if the defendants were permitted to occupy the property which they had purchased that damage to value of the other properties in the neighborhood would accrue.

MINISTER'S WIFE ASKS SUPPORT FOR DAUGHTER
Through Attorneys Houston and Houston, Mrs. Lucy P. Sheafe, 905 R Street, Northwest, is suing her husband, the Rev. Lewis C. Sheafe, Sr., pastor of the People's Seventh Day Adventist Church at Tenth and V Streets, Northwest, for maintenance of their minor child, Doris Elizabeth Sheafe, aged 13 years.
In her petition, Mrs. Sheafe tells the court that she is no longer able to support their child and that she has communicated this fact to her husband. Although he is able to support the child, Mrs. Sheafe says, he has refused to do so.
On May 15, 1924, Mrs. Sheafe declares, she and her husband entered into a separation agreement, in which she discharged him from all obligations to provide for her and their child.
At the time of this agreement, Mrs. Sheafe says, she was employed as a teacher in Fessenden Academy in Florida at a salary of $60 a month. In September, 1924, she says, she was employed at the State College, Dover, Delaware, as a teacher at a salary of $100 a month, but on February 14, 1925, she was compelled to give up this work on account of her physical condition.
Her total income now, she asserts,
consists of rentals from rooms in her
residence amounting to $20 a month
and voluntary and uncertain contributions
from her children by a former
marriage, Margaret Wetzel and Arthur
Wetzel. Her monthly expenses
average $230.

MRS. TIGNOR HIT ON HEAD AS SHE CRIES FORAID
WHITE ASSAILANT YET AT LARGE
Failing to satisfy his craving for drugs, a white dope fiend last Saturday night attacked Mrs. C. A. Tignor in the office of her husband, Dr. C. A. Tignor, in their home at 473 Florida Avenue, Northwest, striking her with the butt end of a revolver. The drug addict gained entrance under the guise of wanting to see Dr. Tignor, who had just gone out to make a professional call. The maid had been dismissed a few minutes earlier, and Mrs. Tignor was alone at the time.
He asked to see the doctor. Mrs. Tignor told him that he was out but was expected to return in a few minutes. He then asked to wait and was ushered into Dr. Tignor's office.
Mrs. Tignor started down the steps into the basement of her home. He called her back and asked for some newspapers to read. As she turned to get some papers which were lying on the operating table, she faced the muzzle of his revolver.
"Where does the doctor keep his medicine?" he demanded to know.
medicine?" he demanded to know.
Mrs. Tignor replied that he had
no medicine except that which he
had with him.
"No, he has some other medicine.
Where is it?" he insisted.
She told him that she knew nothing
about any medicine except what he
saw and he could help himself to
that.
He then glanced around and saw the safe. Thinking that he might find some "dope" in it, he went to the safe and tried to work the combination.
Mrs. Tignor grabbed the telephone and asked for police headquarters. He snatched her away from the telephone. She started to scream for help. Neighbors next door failed to hear her. She started out of the door. He dared her to go, menacingly brandishing the revolver. When she started again to telephone, he struck her on the back of the head with the butt end of the revolver. She fainted and fell to the floor. He made his escape.
The man is described as being white with freckles about the nose and with reddish hair. He wore no collar and made apologies for his appearance, although he was otherwise neatly dressed. He had a cap which he kept in his hands. He is about five feet and eight inches in height and weighs about 160 pounds. He is apparently between 30 and 35 years of age.

Mrs. Kate Stewart, aged 62, the wife of George W. Stewart, retired, of 1626 Fifteenth Street, Northwest, was injured-last Saturday morning as she alighted from a Fourteenth Street car at the corner of R Street, Northwest.

Mrs. Stewart had been doing her customary early marketing and was returning from the market with a basket laden with purchases. She was dismounting from the rear platform of the car and had reached for her basket when the car was started forward throwing her forcibly to the ground. The accident occurred about ten minutes to eight in the morning. The car was stopped and the crew was arranging for the injured woman to be taken to the hospital when two friends of the family, Thomas and Edward Brooks, volunteered to accompany her home. She is under the immediate care of her husband and her daughter-in-law, Mrs. Maude Stewart. A three-year-old grandson is very solicitous as to grandma's welfare.

SAYS DR. INGRAM
Regardless of all our school studies, experience is the greatest teacher in the world. It is really superior to our book study, and we must admit that it is. Mother wit is something we can not get along without; for it is education within itself in every instance and compacity of life.
My many years of experience have convinced me that one means just about as much as the other to any individual, because we cannot exist without it. My many years in the medical world have convinced me that it was a practical experience that I had to have in order to make a success.
The human system is something that requires an over average study. Let me call your attention to the Visceral Cavity, which is one of the most delicate and active organs of the bbody, and which should be closely observed. Over one-half of the people fail to observe these organs. If the stomach is in a normal condition it will govern the other parts of the system accordingly, but most people bring on gastritis by neglect of eating their meals at the proper time, and eating those things which are not stimulant to the general organs.
Usually chronic diseases are brought on by the individual himself, especially in the female sex, for they are less observant about chronic diseases, especially in their delicate periods.
I am always pleased to advise women how they might care for themselves, and in doing so will result in long lives and happiness.
Always come to my office to get free advice, and I will only be too glad to help you. My office is at the White- law Hotel, 13th and T Streets, North- West, Washington, on the second floor. The office hours are: 9 to 12; 1:30 to 6; and 7 to 9.

BETHEL BAPSTISTS STATE CONVENTION FAVORS UNITY AMONG BAPSTISTS; OFFICERS ELECTED.
The third annual session of the Mt. Bethel Baptist State Convention of Washington, D.C., Dr. S. Gerian Lammins, founder, and president for three years has passed into history. The sessions were held from July 21 to 23 in the Vermont Avenue Baptist Church, Vermont Avenue, between Q and R Streets, Northwest. Dr. J. E. Willis, pastor. It was reported to be the most important session in the history of the convention. Sermons were preached to the convention by Drs. A. J. Tyler, H. T. Gaskins, S. S. Roberts, J. P. Nichols, F. E. Pree and Joseph H. Lee. The annual address of Dr. Lammins, the president, was filled with important suggestions, among which was the unification of the Baptist forces in the District of Columbia.
A commission was appointed on his recommendation with plenary power to confer with a similar commission from the General Baptist Convention, with a view to the consolidation or unification of the Baptist churches of Washington. The question was ably discussed by Dr. J. L. Penn, Dr. Walter H. Brooks, Dr. A. Sales, Dr. G. L. Davis, Dr. L. R. Frazier, Rev. Henry J. Booker and others. They made strong appeals for Baptist unity. The sentiment seems to be in favor of one Baptist convention in Washington.
The following officers were elected for the ensuing year. Dr. A. J. Tyler, president; Dr. J. E. Willis
and Dr. L. E. Kiser, vice-presidents; Rev. George W. Brent, recording secretary; George W. Timus, financial secretary; Rev. H. D. Boots, corresponding secretary; Rev. J. H. Marshall, treasurer; Rev. John Richard, chaplin; Rev. H. T. Gaskins, field secretary; Rev. Dr. S. C. Lamkins founder and former president of the convention was elected executive secretary. This last is a new departure and an advance step for the colored Baptists. They have never had an executive officer before.
The constitution of the Mt. Bethel Baptist State Convention says, "There shall be an executive secretary who shall be in active charge of the work of the convention when the convention and the executive board are not in session. The executive secretary shall work under the authority of the convention and the general direction of the executive board. He shall maintain an office."
Dr. Lankins was appointed as chairman of the committee to confer with printing plants in Washington with a view of starting a religious newspaper in Washington under the auspices of Mt. Bethel Baptist State Convention. The chairman of the several boards are as follows: Home Mission Board, Dr. Daniel Washington; Foreign Mission Board, Dr. J. E. Wills; Educational Board, Dr. M. W. D. Norman; the Evangelistic Board, Dr. Alexander Wilbanks; City and Church Extension Board, Dr. L. R. Frazier.
The singing at the recent convention was lead by Dr. Keiser with Miss Keiser and Rev. O. G. Granderson, presiding alternately at the piano. The praises service were conducted by the Woman's Evangelistic Conference, Mrs. M. M. Fry, president.

M.T. ZION M. E. CHURCH CHOIR
A HIT ON THE RADIO
The choir of Mt. Zion M. E. Church,
under the direction of James T. Beason,
the conductor, broadcasted over
the radio from WCAP station last Friday
night, July 23; and the critic of
the Washington Times paid an unusual
editorial tribute to the capabilities
of the organization.
In its issue of July 24, the Times said:
"The singing of the magnificent
Jerusalem" chorus from Mt. Zion M.
E. Church was the finest example of
pure musical accomplishment and
great harmony that has been heard on
the radio in the past six months. . .
Not even Wednesday's singing by
The New York Oratorio Society equalled
it. . .
"In Gounod's 'Gallia' which requires singing by people whose souls are drenched in pure music—whose sense of the drama they are interpreting is acutely allied to their feeling of harmony, the work of these folks under Mr. Beason is true to the last detail. . . The Gounod number was but the climax of a program that was prepared by an artist in program making. . . It is hoped that the Mt. Zion choir will make good its promise to sing again, with the same expert leadership and with the same remarkably intelligent accompanist, Mrs. Mary L. Barnes."
LIBERTY BAPTIST CHURCH
LIBERTY BAPTIST CHURCH

not pass up mentioning the recent meeting held by the Federated Colored Catholics at the Church of the Holy Redeemer when the pastor, in extending his cordial welcome, really added 3000 new workers for the Gibbons Institute. His address will long live in the minds and hearts of those fifty people present. He urged them to keep up the good work. In concluding his remarks, he offered his church as a meeting place for the committee whenever they wish to use it. He placed $10 on the table towards the appeal coming from Miss Nannie H. Burroughs for funds to rebuild her school which was burned down by fire on May 28.
He said, in presenting the money in the name of his congregation, that Miss Burroughs was doing a wonderful work. The audience added $20 to his contribution.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE. FRIDAY, JULY 30, 1926
PROTEST AGAINST GEORGIA AVENUE SWIMMING POOL
The bathing pool on Georgia Avenue, above U Street, Northwest, that was ostensibly intended for general patronage, when the promoters were seeking signers to the petition for the permit to establish the place (and which has since been opened with a flagrant sign before the door announcing that it is strictly for white patronage) is being attacked by the signers of that petition, many of whom are colored business and professional men of the section interested.
The local branch of the N.A.A.C.P. and the Howard Park Citizens Association have taken an interest in the matter, and plans are being made to protest against the management of the enterprise on the basis of a charge of misrepresentation to the petitioners. The original name of the project was "Happyland" and since its opening a club name and purported membership policy has been inaugurated to facilitate the segregation practices that prevail at present.
Thomas A. Johnson, Dr. W. L. Smith and Neval H. Thomas are actively interested in the matter of destroying the policy under which the pool is being operated.
A committee composed of the protestants has been granted a hearing before the District Commissioners that will take place at nine o'clock, Tuesday morning, August 3.
INDIANAPOLIS ATTORNEY VISITS
Counsellor W. S. Henry, who until December last was Assistant City Attorney of Indianapolis, Ind., with his wife and children, was a visitor in the city last week. While here the party was guest of Attorney J. Louis Taylor. Mr. Henry and his family motored from the West. They had been called to his home in Virginia by the death of his father.
Sunday suggested to the Federated Catholics that in order to assure success of the various entertainments and the prevention of four or five falling on the same night, that a committee be formed so that all of the churches and organizations would register their dates. After a few suggestions from the floor, the Council Review office was decided the most favorable place, so in the future the churches and organizations are requested when they decide to give an entertainment to list their dates with the Review office or find out what other Catholics' plans are. A list will be kept on hand at all times. The office is open from 9:30 to 12 and 1 to 5:30; evenings 6:30 to 10. Phone, Lincoln 7115.
Little Miss Dorothy Crocker of Belleville, N.J., is the guest of Mrs. Holton of 409 3rd Street, Northwest. She has been highly entertained in this city. On Wednesday evening a party was given in her honor by Mrs. Holton. Among those present were: Miss Dorothy Crocker, hostess; Elenor Coburn, Thelma Wilson, Jeannie Taylor, Mary Jackson, Jeannie Tanner, and Katherine Wilson and Masters Frank Johnson, Amos Sharp, Thomas Edwards, James Johnson and Bobbie Wilson.
An outdoor carnival will be held at the Church of The Epiphany on Dumbarton Avenue, between 27th and 28th Streets, Northwest, beginning on Tuesday, August 3rd.

WHEN YOU HAVE LOST ALL
HOPE-SEE ME! I WILL HELP
YOU TO REGAIN HEALTH
Dear Friend:
Have you or any of your friends lost their health? My many years of experience have taught me that out of every 12 families, we usually find 8 out of those 12, affected with claudication, and usually from not observing their health and allowing themselves to reach the chronic stage. Every good-talking person should be examined twice a year to avoid chronic ailments. Many people deal their complaints and say that they only have indigestion. Over one-half of the cases are chronic gastritis with neuritic conditions. Usually neuritis accompanies chronic indigestion and gastritis together comes to be a complication of diseases.
My many years of experience have taught me that the first symptoms of chronic indigestion. We now have more than one kind of indigestion.
I am always pleased to have you come to my office and to explain chronic diseases to you. It brings such a peculiar feeling. Chronic diseases are not one single symptom, but are more than seven symptoms. It comes to be complicated that it takes possession of the entire system and affects the general organs to such an extent that the blood becomes impure. In every instance a woman or girl is one of the most peculiar sex to make a study of. Their symptoms are so peculiar in so many instances, where gastric organs come to be affected by gastritic and neuritic condition. Many times it affects the entire abdomen, with kidney and liver troubles accompanying it. Usually when a woman begins to suffer with neuritic and gastritic troubles, for about three or four years, the symptoms will always be so affective upon the ovaries and womb that in many instances they resemble appendicitis.
I am always willing to furnish information free. I hope that this letter will be a help to you and your family, as I am always pleased to do something for the help of humanity.
Very truly yours,
Dr. D. B. INRGRAM, M.D.

SALE OF PROPERTY RESTRAINED BY INJUNCTION
Justice A. A. Hoehling of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia has granted a temporary injunction restraining the sale of property affected by a restrictive convenient to colored persons. The property is No. 139 Adams Street, Northwest, which is in the Bloomingdale section. Frank N. and Lillian M. Sampalik, white, had agreed to sell the property to Russell L. Kyle, of 1821 Fourth Street, Northwest, and were taking preliminary steps to convey title to it to him when Frank L. and Rose D. White, 145 Adams Street, Northwest, and Robert L. and Martha L. Pile 135 Adams Street, Northwest, asked the court to prevent the sale.
In granting the injunction, Justice Hoehlung said that he was being governed by the decision of the Court of Appeals of the District of Columbia in the case of Torrey against Wolfs, decided June 1, 1925, in which a similar restrictive convenant was involved. In that case the appellate court sustained the action of the trial court in granting a preliminary injunction.
Attorney George E. C. Hayes, who is representing the defendants, noted an appeal. The temporary injunction restrains Frank N. and Lillian M. Sampalk from proceeding further with any sale, conveyance, leases or gift of the property at No. 189 Adams Street, Northwest, to Russell K. Lyle, or permitting him to use, occupy or obtain possession of it in violation of the convenient. It also restrains Lyle from occupying, buying, purchasing or possessing the property. Attorney Hayes contends that the convenient is a contract in unlawful restraint of alienation and is contrary to public policy. He says that the courts of the District of Columbia have never passed upon this question.
The convenant provides that "said lot shall never be rented, leased, sold, transferred or conveyed to any Negro or person of Negro blood, under a penalty of $2,000, which shall be a lien against said property." This convenant is made to run with the land.
Unlike the convenant in the Curtis case, it was not mutually signed by the owners of the property in this section. It was put in the deeds by Ray E. Middaugh and William E. Shannon, who obtained title to the property in this section and improved it by the erection of a large number of dwellings and sold them subject to this restrictive agreement.

MINISTER'S WIFE ASKS SUPPORT FOR DAUGHTER
(Continued from page 1)
Her husband receives a salary of $100 a month for pastoring the People's Seventh Day Adventist Church, she states. He is also a chiropractor, having his office at his residence, 1509 Fifth Street, Northwest, she says, and enjoys a lucrative practice to the extent of more than $150 a month. He sublets his residence, she claims and from this source receives at least $50 a month. She fixes the amount of his total income at not less than $300 a month and his total expenses at not more than $150 a month.
She charges that her husband is overbearing and irascible and possesses an ungovernable temper. She alleges that he is further temperamentally unfit to have the care and custody of their child.
Mrs. Sheafe asks the court to relieve her from the condition of the separation agreement which imposes upon her the support of their minor child. She also asks that the custody of the child be given her and that her husband be ordered to pay a fixed sum at regular intervals for the maintenance of the child during her minority.
The Rev. Lewis C. Sheafe deeded certain property to his wife including his interest in No. 905 R Street, Northwest, at the time the separation agreement was entered into.
The Rev. Lewis C. and Mrs. Lucy P. Sheafe were married in Huntsville, Alabama, March 27, 1911. They have been living in the District of Columbia since May, 1918. They have only one child, Doris Elizabeth, who was born October 14, 1913.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY. JULY 30. 1926
DR. SILAS S, THOMPSON BURIED IN ARLINGTON
DR. SILAS S, THOMPSON BURIED IN ARLINGTON
(Continued from page 1)
tege entered the church, provided the music for the occasion.
Dr. Thompson died of heart and kidney troubles at Freedmen's Hospital on July 24, where he had been taken about a week prior after becoming very suddenly ill. It was known, however, that he had been ailing for some time, and his Masonic activities in connection with the New Temple, in all probability, aggravated his condition.
Dr. Thompson, the eldest son of Rev. Sumpter Thomas and his wife, Mary, was born at Winsboro, S.C. When he was very young, his parents moved to Kissime, Fla., where five brothers and sisters were born. He was 45 years of age when he died.
He acquired his common school education there and at the age of sixteen years was employed as a teacher in the local school. At eighteen, he went to Jacksonville where he graduated from Cookman Institute. He came to Washington in 1901 and entered Howard University, graduating as president of the class of 1904. He was immediately named as an interne in Freedmen's Hospital and before the year expired was named staff physician. When the World War broke out, he was commissioned and sent to Des Moines, Iowa, for training. Later he was sent to Camp Dix near Philadelphia for service.
After the war he resumed medical practice in Washington and a few years later he went to Reno, Nev. where he had the distinction of being the first Negro to pass the state examination for the practice of medicine. He remained there for about two years, and while there was divorced from Elizabeth Thompson, his first wife on October 31, 1922. Returning to Washington he was married to the surviving widow, Mrs. Violet A. Thompson. Their home at 937 R Street was one of the fine residences of this part of the city. Among the surviving members of the family are a sister, Mamie Thompson, a brother, William Thompson who is an attorney in Philadelphia, and a niece, Mrs. Marguerite Kaye of Philadelphia.
Dr. Thompson was an active member of many fraternities. He was Right Eminent Grand Commander of the Grand Commandery of Knights Templars of the District of Columbia; and a member of the International Conference of Grand Commanders. He was at the time of his

death chairman of the board of trustees of the Most Worshipful Acacia Grand Lodge of Masons, and a most active associate with Grand Master Ford in the details connected with the effort to restore and complete the Masonic Temple at Tenth and U Streets, Northwest.
He was a Past Master of Ionic Lodge, 17, F.A.A.M., a Grand Lecturer in the Grand Lodge of the jurisdiction; a member of Mt. Vernon Chapter, No. 1, Royal Arch Masons; Right Eminent Commander of Gethsemane Commandery. No. 3; Past G.R.R. of the Grand Chapter R.A.M.; a Past Patron of Miriam Chapter, No. 4, Order Eastern Star; and in the Ancient Arabic Temple No. 10, of which he was both a Past Potentate and Past Treasurer.
Though unusual to the practices of Shriners, Potentate Alston headed a delegation from Mecca Temple to the services.
Dr. Thompson was Past Royal Patron of the Grand Chapter Order of the Order of Eastern Star, and a member of the Grand Court of Cyrenes whose Grand Matron, Mrs. Smothers headed a delegation from the organization to the funeral services. He was also a member of Moslem Guild No. 8, of the Heroines of Jericho.
He belonged to Syracuse Lodge, No. 5, of the Knights of Pythias; and was a medical examiner in the I.B.P.O. Elks of the World.
Dr. Thompson was one of the leading medical men of the city. He was credited with being one of the first surgeons in the city, if not the very first, to install an X-ray apparatus as part of his professional equipment.
He was a member of the Medico-Chirurgical Society, the Fortnightly Reading Club and the National Medical Association. He was a frequent conductor of clinics and was always inclined to render help to younger practitioners. Dr. M. O. Dumas, one of the leading medical men of the city, paused in his preparations for a European trip long enough to say to the Tribune representative that "In the passing of Dr. Thompson the profession loses one of its ablest men, one in whom the whole profession had full confidence; and the city has lost a useful and upstanding citizen." In referring the interviewer to Dr. Francis Dyer for a detailed story of the deceased, Dr. A. M. Curtis stated that, "The man was a marvel of energy and loyalty to service, and a progressive and continuous student of his profession."
The Grandmaster of Masons, Charles P. Ford, was too full for utterance, beyond that contained in his fine and comprehensive eulogy that was part of the burial ceremony. It is known that he feels the loss of his close associate as keenly as does the immediate family, and the Masonic craft shares his grief. Dr. J. Francis Dyer who was perhaps the closest professional friend of the deceased, was virtually a protege of Dr. Thompson. He cared for Dr. Thompson's practice while the latter was away from the city and their interests were very close. He declared that "a progressive, friendly and co-operating spirit went to its reward when Dr. Thompson passed from us. He was a good friend, a good practitioner and a useful citizen."
MRS. SMALLWOOD CURED OF CANCER
Dr. Ingram in a statement issued told of his wonderful experience of different diseases of the human system.
He related several incidents of some things that happened in 1009, at Sidney Side, Maryland; a place about fifty miles from any railroad; but he told particularly of the incident about Mrs. Margaret Smallwood who resided there. He was enthusiastic enough to get the country's practice as well as the city's, and also to get a synopsis of the affect of the different climates, which cause any number of peculiar diseases. After being at Shady Side, Maryland, for a short while he passed a house one day from which came loud screams and learned from Mr. George Crowner, who was along with him at the time, that this was the Smallwood's home. Mrs. Smallwood had been ill for some time with a cancered breast and had been given up by the Johns Hopkins Hospital to die. She also had been given up by Dr. Fowler, Dr. Wright, Dr. Wilson, and Dr. Dent; all of them being practicing physicians of the State of Maryland.
He voluntarily went right in and gave Mrs. Smallwood immediate relief, which surprised everyone present at her home. This gave Mr. Smallwood and others courage to save her life, and she was given over in Dr. Ingram's charge.
"However," continued Dr. Ingram, "It took me six months to bring Mrs. Smallwood back to her normal health again; but after which time she visited her relatives in Baltimore, the Johns Hopkins Hospital, and the doctors who had given her up, to show them that she was still alive and was as well as any person could be."

REPUBLIC THEATER
Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, August 1, 2, 3, "Siberia" a soul-stirring story of Imperial Russia with a cast headed by Edmund Lowe, Alma Rubens and Lou Tellegen. "Siberia" is the kind of story like "The Volga Boatman," love and intrigue in darkest Russia. It exposes the Czar' spy system with all its treachery. It reveals the orgies of the Winter Palace. It shows the horrors of the Siberian salt mines, the mutiny of the political exiles and love and romance that triumphed despite oppression.
Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, August 4, 5, 6, "The Unknown Soldier" one of the greatest war pictures that has ever come to the screen. In the cast are Charles Emmett Mack, Marguerite DeLMotte and Henry B.Walthall. It is an extraordinary picture story of love, war and peace, filled with tears and pathos. It ranks only second to "The Big Parade" as the supreme war picture. "The Unknown Soldier" is one of the best pictures of the current season. Saturday, August 7, a first-run picture "The Boob" with Joan Crawford, Gertrude Olmstead and Charles Murray. On the stage will be presented talent at 7:30 and 9:30. Manager Sanford also announces that "Why Girls Go Back Home" a sequel to the famous "Why Girls Leave Home" will be shown on Sunday and Monday, August 8, 9.

NATIONAL MEDICAL ASSOCIATION TO HONOR ITS PRESIDENT
The thirty-first annual session of the National Medical Association will be held in Philadelphia, August 24. to 28. 1926.
The local committee of arrangements headed by Dr. John P. Turner, co-operating with the general secretary of the National Medical Association Dr. Clyde Donnell, of Durham, N.C. has mapped out a very comprehensive program. Papers will be read by the outstanding men of the profession, representing all sections of the country, in medicine, surgery, dentistry, and pharmacy. The most elaborate program of clinics in all branches of medicine that has ever been prepared for a meeting of the National Medical Association has been arranged through the Philadelphia Local Committee. These clinics will be held at the Jefferson Hospital, University of Pennsylvania Hospital, the Philadelphia General Hospital, Mercy Hospital and Douglass Hospital, and in the school buildings where the meetings will be held. Cooperating with the members of the profession in giving these clinics, who are members of the National Medical Association, will be men who are internationally known in their special branches. General and specialist surgeons of renown will return from their vacations especially to conduct clinics for the visitors to the National Medical Association.
The city officials of Philadelphia have granted the use of Walter George Smith Public School at Nineteenth and Wharton Streets, and the James Logan Public School at Nineteenth and Reed Streets. The scientific sessions of the association will be held at these two places, as will also medical and pharmaceutical clinics. On Sunday preceding the opening of the session, representatives of the National Association will appear at various churches throughout the city and give general health talks.
On Monday there will be a meeting of the National Hospital Association and of the National Association of Life Insurance Medical Examiners. For the first time in the history of the National Medical Association, the formal opening of the convention will be held on Monday evening instead of Tuesday evening as formerly. On Wednesday evening a public health meeting will be conducted by Dr. Roscoe C. Brown, Assistant General Secretary of the National Medical Association in the auditorium of the Sesoucentennial Exposition.
An exceptional feature of this convention will be the testimonial which will be tendered Dr. Walter G. Alexander of Orange president of the National Medical Association. Doctor Alexander was for twelve years general secretary of the National Medical Association and conducted its affairs during the most trying period of its existence. He was also for four years general manager of the Journal of the National Medical Association and has been since its beginning an associate editor of the Journal.
The sessions of the convention will close on Friday afternoon; then the delegates go to Atlantic City where they will be guests of the Atlantic City physicians under the direction of Dr. P. L. Hawkins. Receptions for the delegates will be tendered by the citizens of Philadelphia on Thursday evening, and in Atlantic City on Friday evening and Saturday.
An attendance of 3,000 physicians is expected in Philadelphia.
URBAN LEAGUE REPORTS ON
INDUSTRY FOR JUNE
New York, July 17—The Industrial Relations Department of the National Urban League summarizes employment conditions throughout the country as follows:
Raleigh—A movement of labor toward new development sections of the state is noted and there is a report of a temporary movement to Washington, D.C. of bricklayers on account of large building programs there.
Lansing—The new Olds Hotel is employing a small number of doormen, bus boys, porters and cleaners. Efforts are being made to extend this employment to bell boys and waiters, but local opposition makes this improbable at present.
San Antonio, Tex.—The first Negro orchestra to play at a white hostelry in San Antonio, Texas, is filling a summer engagement at St. Anthony hotel. Alphonse Trent's orchestra has the contract.
Jefferson City, Mo.—The first street contract to be awarded a Negro has been granted Charles Marberry to grade a city block. He employs all colored help. His contract is $5,000. Minneapolis—Negroes were re-employed by the Minneapolis Street Railway Company. At the instance of the Urban League of that city the company was prevailed upon to disregard complaints of inefficiency and permit another trial. Maurice Rothschild's Store hired a maid and a night watchman. They were the first Negroes to be employed there. Milwaukee—Negro musicians were employed in resorts out from this city where previously white orchestras were employed. They are union men.
Summary
Cities in which business houses employed Negroes in June for the first time: Lansing, San Antonio, Jefferson City, Minneapolis, Milwaukee, and St. Louis.
Significant: industrial problems: Students from southern schools stranded throughout the North. The 17 were provided with free transportation of a number of these boys back to their homes. As many as 17 were provide dwith free transportation in June.

Union Labor:—No report of recent friction between white and colored workers involving union labor. Approximately 100 colored girls are on strike with white workers in the cloak workers union in New York. In Raleigh less hostility is reported against Negro bricklayers by white bricklayers. In New York motion picture operators, recently permitted to join the union, reported greatly increased wages. One colored operator, formerly employed at $45.00 a week for sixty-six hours work, now receives $63.02 a week for thirty-four hours work.
RHINELANDER APPEALS AN-
NULMENT DISMISSAL AS
WIFE ARRIVES IN
ENGLAND
White Plains, N.Y., July 29.—Not only will Leonard Kip Rhinelander appeal to the Appellate Division from the decision dismissing his complaint in a suit for annulment of marriage, but he will also appeal from allowance of $12,000 additional counsel fees.
Formal notice of both appeals was on file Friday in the office of the county clerk signed 2 months ago by Supreme Court Justice Morschauser, although the jury which found that Rhinelander had not been deceived as to his wife's color reported last December.
Prior to the allowance of $12,000 counsel fees an allowance of $3,000 had been made, which was not opposed by Rhinelander.
Southampton, England, July 30.—Alice Jones Rhinelander arrived with her mother to visit the latter's relatives in England and although surrounded by newspaper men she escaped with the mere statement that she didn't care whether Leonard is in Paris.
It is understood that orders were left for a chauffeur to call at the hotel after a Loindon trains had departed, and it was thought Mrs. Rhinelander intended to go to St. Malo, where her mother's family lives.

ORGANIZER OF SLEEPING CAR PORTERS BROADCASTS SPEECH FROM ST. PAUL
Big Meeting in New York
St. Paul, Minn., July 21.—A Philip Randolph, editor of the Messenger and General Organizer of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters delivered an address over the radio station here last night. His subject was "The Negro and Labor." Local labor leaders, together with prominent leaders of the Negro race are elated over the speech. "This is probably the first time in the history of the country that a Negro leader has broadcasted an appeal in the interest of Negro workers.
Editor Randolph spoke on the same subject before the faculty and student body of the University of Minnesota. This address was well received and his hearers showed their keen interest in the subject by asking numerous questions at the close of the address.
New York Meeting
Within the last sixty days the brotherhood has grown stronger by over 600 new members. The organization is more firmly entrenched today than at any time during its history. The spirit of the men is high, and they are enthusiastically supporting their chosen leader. Friday night, July 30, at St. Luke's Hall, 125 West 130th Street, Randolph, together with Dr. Abraham Lefkowitz, Ph.D., will address what is expected to be the largest turn out of Pullman porters and maids ever seen in New York.
The officials of the porters' organizations are complaining that the Chicago Enterprise is spreading propaganda adverse to their interests.

THOMPSON WINS PHILLY OPEN TOURNAMENT
THOMPSON WINS PHILLY OPEN TOURNAMENT
Philadelphia, Pa., July 29—"Ted" Thompson, national singles champion, captured the men's singles in the Philadelphia Open Tennis Tournament on the courts of the Germantown Y. W. C. A.
In the finals on Saturday Thompson defeated Eyre Saitch of New York, 9-11, 6-2, 7-9, 6-3, 6-2. The champion outgeneralized his opponent and seemed possessed of the greater stamina.
Thompson reached the finals with comparative ease, while Saitch was forced to fight to win from Tally Holmes, Washington veteran in the semi-finals. Saitch downed Holmes 2-6, 6-4, 6-3, 6-8, 6-2.
Miss Lula Ballard, ladies singles champion, played beautiful tennis to defeat Ora Washington in the finals, 1-6, 6-4, 6-4. Miss Washington has beaten Miss Ballard in exhibition matches but has never been able to win from her in a tournament.
In mixed doubles Eyre Saitch and Miss Emma Leonard defeated Strange and Miss O. Washington, 6-1, 8-6. Miss L. Ballard and Miss Ora Washingtonromped through the ladies' doubles winning the finals from Miss Smith and Mrs. Leonard of New York, 6-3, 6-0.
In men's doubles the finals were postponed until Monday and Teal and Thomas, a young Philadelphia pair, bowed to Saitch and Johnson of New York, 6-0, 6-3, 6-1.
Thompson and Holmes, the national doubles champions, were defaulted when Thompson failed to show up for a scheduled match on Friday.
The only thing in the nature of an upset occurred when Fentress Dawkins of Philadelphia, defeated Dr. Gordon in the round before the semi-finals. Gordon had previously vanquished Ross Strange, Philadelphia's ranking player, and Dawkins scaled the heights to beat him, 6-4, 4-6; 6-4. In the semi-finals Dawkins went down for Ted Thompson in straight sets.

HOWARD OFFICIALS
DENY STADIUM
IS FIRE MENACE
In a report to the Secretary of the Interior, Howard University officials deny that the new stadium is a fire menace as was declared in a report of the fire marshal of the District of Columbia, which was transmitted to Secretary Work by District Commissioner Cuno H. Rudolph.
The report of the Howard University officials declares that a great majority of the stands in athletic fields, stadiums, race tracks, and automobile bowls are of wood. "It is only in very recent years," the report states, "that even wealthy universities such as Pennsylvania, Ohio State, Illinois and others, have been able to afford stadiums of any material other than wood."
"At the present time," the report says "The Washington American League Park uses patent wood stands of far lighter construction than those of Howard for its overflow crowds."
The report of the fire marshal is in error, the university officials assert, in stating that the tin roof over the toilets and shooting gallery, built directly under the seats on the east side, will become a catch-all for inflamable materials.
The inspection by the fire marshal, they say, was made without consulting the architect or any university official.
There are six sources of adequate water supply, properly located around the field, the university officials declare, and the wood in the stands is Oregon fir, noted for its low resinous and sap contents, and is slow to ignite.
UNION LEAGUE RACE TIGHTENS
The championship race in the Union League is tightening as the clubs swing into the final stretch.
The Washington Black Sox are out in front with the LeDroit Tigers following. These two contenders meet Sunday at the Union League Park in a double-header. To overcome the Black Sox's lead, the Tigers will have to take both ends of the twin bill.
Meanwhile, the clubs in the second division are making a determined fight for places in the first division.
The Washington Giants and the Myrtle A.C. also meet Sunday. If the Myrtle A.C. should win, they move up into third place.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, JULY 30, 1926
IN NEW YORK STATE
New York, July 29.—Although the Boxing Commission voted Tuesday to allow Tex Rickard to promote the heavyweight championship brawl between Jack Dempsey and Gene Tunney at the Yankee Stadium on September 16, the fight cannot and will not come off unless the sanction of the License Committee can be obtained. This board consists of the two Colonels, John J. Phelan and D. Walker Wear.
The only conditions under which the Colonels will O.K. a match in which Dempsey is to be one of the principals, is for the champion first to meet his "logical" contender, Harry Wills. The Colonels will absolutely refuse to listen to any argument and are dead set against any other match other than a Dempsey-Wills set-to.
To do otherwise would cause both the State Athletic Commission and the License Committee to break their own rules, which state that a champion must defend his title against his leading contender at least every six months.
By the votes of Commissioners William (Duke) Muldoon and George Brower for the Dempsey-Tunney affair Tuesday, that particular rule was broken. James A. Farley, chairman, stood his ground and voted against the move to allow Dempsey to fight anybody but Wills in New York.
The License Committee met Tuesday morning, four hours before the commission went into action. While in session at approved of all licenses previously issued. This does not include the Dempsey-Tunney wrangle, as no application for license has been filed by either fighter. It also decided that all applications for reinstatement must be made direct to the committee. That includes Dempsey and Tunney and is where the catch will come in.
Brower said his change of attitude in voting for the Dempsey-Tunney match was because he was finally convinced that no promoter was able to get Dempsey and Wills together. He also wanted to keep the Dempsey-Tunny bout from going to any other State.
Brower appears to be all wrong when he says that no promoter was able to get Dempsey and Wills together. Both Humbert Fugazy and Jimmy DeForest were willing to stage the match, but were compelled to halt all transactions with the champion at the request of the solons. Farley is sitting tigian and saying nothing. His acces are Colonella Phalan and Wear. He has already received the positive assurance they will stick with him. That seems good enough for Big Jim, and that knows his onions.
KID WOODY OUTPOINTS TIGER ROSE CARROLL
Kid Woody, the Government Printing Office boxen, won the decision over Tiger Rose Carroll in the four-round opening bout at Kenilworth last Tuesday evening.
Kid Woody was the aggressor from the sound of the gong. He led with a jab to the face. Carroll, however, proved himself game and got the better of the first round. Kid Woody won the three remaining rounds.
Jack Kinney, who got his athletic training at Howard University, was fouled in the first round of a scheduled six-round bout. He was hit low by Clarence Thomas within one minute after the two had squared off in the ring. The club physician examined him and declared that he was unable to go on with the fight.
After Referee Charley Short had threatened to stop the main bout unless the fighters showed more action, the seconds of Harry Brandon tossed a towel in the ring in the sixth round, and Young Montreal was declared the winner.
State inspectors of the Maryland boxing commission advised matchmaker Heinie Miller to hold up Brandon's share of the purse and declared that they would recommend its forfeiture and the suspension of Brandon's second for his action in tossing the towel in the ring, at the meeting of the boxing commission in Baltimore, Monday.
In the semi-final, Terry O'Day won the decision over Benny Jukes in six rounds.
Willie Ptomy was give nthe verdict over Kid Devore in a four-rounder. The crowd booed this decision.

LEDROIT TIGERS
SWAMP DEANWOOD
By "Flash" Robeson
The LeDroit Tigers resumed play in
the Union League last Sunday, swamp-
ing the Deanwood A. C. by a score of
15 to 1. The old punch that had been
lacking in the last two games was
present.
The District champs collected 17 hits off three hurriers. They bunched them in every inning except one. Jake Harris and Bunny Jefferson, with Dwiggins, lead the Tigers at bat. Handled by "Keystone" Davis, Dwiggins pitched a wonderful game. Deanwood failed to get a hit off his slants, until the eighth inning when they scored their only run off a two-bagger by Green and a single by D. Watkins. Martin Lewis after a long lay-off returned to the Tigers' line-up at second.
The fielding feature of the game was turned in by the first frame when he travelled far in center-fild for Hansborough's texas leaguer.

Both men were long on this haymakig style, but, as in most other exchanges, Flowers had the advantage. The champion came out of the encounter with a badly damaged left eye. While Huffman's face was a study in scarlet. The bout was fought under a broiling sun before a crowd roughly estimated at between 12,000 and 20,000.

Their most widely known ehter-

A grandmother who lived a life

Letters to Editor
THE HEALTH OF THE PUBLIC
Washington, D.C.
July 28, 1926
'To the Editor of ~
The Washington Tribune,
Dear Sir:
The problem of the alarming deati
among the coloted people of Wash
ington is deserving of serious con
sideration by all who claim to have
their well-being at heart.”
‘The cause of the death rafe of ‘
colored to 1 white should be found
land the remedies should be applied
But there seems to be a general lack
of interest in the problem of those
who should think for the race.
‘The ministers are totally apathetic.
They seem to be perfectly satisfied
to preach about heaven and _ hell.
They do not wonder or investigate
why so many of their people are
always sick, or why so many die.
They forget that health and christian-
ity are closely related, that the body
is the Temple of the Living God;
that Christ was a perfect physical
Specimen of manhood. -
‘The physicians are interested in
hose who consult them. These do so
when they are already sick, some
when they are alimost dead. The phy-
sicians as a rule are not interested
in the general physical well-being
of the community.
‘The business man is attending to
the cares of his business, and so on.
What we need more than anything
se, are more men and women who
will forget their own private affairs
‘or a little while and work for the
good of. the. whole, iz
This relative high death rate is a
lisgrage and a challenge to all, We
are dur brothers’ keepers.
Are we as a race unable to adapt
ourselves to the white man’s civiliza-
tion?
‘Are we inherently weaker than thc
white man? x
‘Are our homes ‘unsanitary, over-
crowded, and conducive to disease?
Does ignorance of the laws of hy-
giene, or lack of early treatment of
disease cause this high death rate?
‘Are the physicians as capable as
those of the other race, or do ite
physicians and patients co-operate
sufficiently to produce adequate re-
sults.
» Do we need more training in home
nursing?
‘There must be a cause, To my mind
there are many. They should be in-
vestigated without prejudice. If is
about time that there be a general
awakening. Let the churches, — the
teachers, the newspapers, the doctors,
the lawyers, the theatres, nurses, the
real estate’ men, the fraternal | or-
ganizations, etc, get together and
formulate a plan for the intensive
study of all conditions affecting the
health of the race in Washington.
Why not classes for home nursing
in the churches, or a visiting nurses
association in each church? Along
‘with the varied clubs which are found
in every church, why couldn’t there
be a Health Club ‘to look after the
health of the church?
Why not a committee to study the
‘housing situation so as to improve
sanitation, composed of real estate
men? 5 es
‘A public health campaign could be
instituted with the help of the church-
es, theatres, newspapers, physicians,
lete., to disseminate medical know-
ledge or medical advice, for exam-
ple,—the value of periodic physical
exathinations; prevention is better
than cure, remember,”
These are just a few suggestions
as to the remedy. It is too big a jok
for any one group to tackle success.
fully, but with the co-operation of
all groups, much can be accomplished
Remember than on the health of
the people depends their prosperity
and happiness.
