ELECTIONS BY ACCLAMATION CHARACTERIZE MASONIC CONVENTIONS
FIRST IN ADVERTISING AND CIRCULATION
NEXT CONVENTIONS TO BE IN NEWARK AND CHICAGO
Boston, Mass., Aug. 28—Nine distinct organizations of the Masonic fraternity, each an entity of the world's oldest fraternal organization, have concluded their sessions in Boston, Mass. Not for another, three years will these bodies again meet in one city. Chicago, Ill., has been selected for the next joint meeting in 1929. Meanwhile those lodges having state organizations will meet within the borders of their respective states, while the A.E.A. Nobles of the Mystic Shrine and its appendant body, the Daughters of Isis, will meet in Newark, N.J., during the fourth week of August next year.
Very few changes have taken place in the elected offices of any of the organizations. The entire Imperial Divan of the Shriners was re-elected by one unanimous vote east by Eugene Phillips of New York, the only living active Past Imperial Potentate of the Order. Caesar R. Blake, Jr., heads the order for the seventh term.
Twenty-nine of the thirty-six state Grandmasters of Prince Hall Masonry in this country attended the conference of Grandmasters. Many were accompanied by their Grand Secretaries and Grand Lecturers. It was the largest assembly of the titular heads of symbolic Masonry that has ever occurred in this country without regard to color considerations. The reverent respect tendered to the august body as its members moved through the streets of Boston en route to conduct a memorial service, at the grave of Prince Hall, founder of Masonry among Negroes, constituted a remarkable tribute to the craft.

FORMER SLAVE SUES TO
REGAIN TITLE TO HOME
FORMER SLAVE SUES TO
REGAIN TITLE TO HOME
Charging that his wife had taken advantage of his illiteracy and ignorance, Robert E. Lee, a former slave and a civil war veteran, filed suit last Monday in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia to regain title to his home at No. 2017 Vermont Avenue, Northwest.
In his bill of particulars, Lee states that he cannot read nor write. He bought this property on June 1, 1886, he says, from his savings from his barber shop business and his pension as a civil war veteran without the financial aid of his wife. He left the details of procuring the deed to this property to his wife, he claims, with the understanding that he and she would take title as joint owners.
His wife died on May 6, 1926, he states, and it was then that he discovered that only her name appeared in the deed. His wife was younger and well educated, he says.
Lee asks the count to set aside the rights of Maria B. Taylor of Boston, Mass., and Martha Monroe of Richmond, Va., who are sisters and heirs of his wife, and reform the deed so that as survivor of his wife he will inherit the property.

Hart, had a conference with the Commissioners of the District of Columbia on Tuesday morning to further emphasize the public attitude toward the bathing pool located at 2416 Georgia Avenue. This was a second conference by representative citizens on this subject.

"LITTLE CORPORAL"
LAID TO REST
New York City, Aug. 31—Gilchrist Stewart, widely known attorney and politician of New York City, who died suddenly in attendance at the Elks Convention in Cleveland, Ohio, last week, was buried from Mother Zion Church at noon today. Rev. Peter Price, assistant rector of the church conducted the burial services. Burial was at Woodland Cemetery. Prof. Lupree Houston, of Howard University law school represented the legal profession at the services. Abbie Mitchell rendered a vocal solo. J. Dalmus Steele, Exalted Ruler of Manhattan Lodge of Elks, and Jerome P. Ottley, an attorney, who was in the deceased's party at the convention delivered the eulogies of the order. Rev. Frazier Miller of Brooklyn also participated in the ceremonies. The Monarch Lodge band led the long procession through the city and many business, legal, and political friends were in the line of march that was headed by Attorney N. Clark Smith, the law partner of the "Little Corporal" as the deceased counselor was known in political circles.
His Career
Gilchrist Stewart was born in New York. He was the son of the late McCants Stewart. He was a graduate of the public schools of Brooklyn. He later attended the Universities of Wisconsin and Michigan after taking a course at Tuskegee. He acquired his law degree at the University of New York.
After passing the bar he began his practice here, devoting most of his time to corporation and immigration cases. He was one of the twelve lawyers that figured in the famous Standard Oil-Hearst Case in 1906.
He was assistant secretary of the Vigilance Committee which was the forerunner of the N.A.A.C.P. He was on the committee that drafted the Civil Liberties Bill of the State. He scored President Roosevelt for dismissing the U.S. Infantry involved in the Brownsville affair and made speeches all over the country criticizing the President's action.
shing WASHING
DISTRICT NATIONAL GUARD UNIT PRAISED. CAPT. NEWMAN PLEASED.
Captain Arthur Newman, senior officer of the First Separate Battalion Infantry, National Guard of the District of Columbia, has just received from the commandant of the Third Corps area, through Major T. M. Spaulding, assistant adjutant general, a communication enclosing the report of Captain George C. Parker, Staff Inspector U.S.A., who inspected the battalion while at camp at Saunders Range, Md., on July 25.
A summary of the contents of the report makes satisfactory reading. While the report is a complicated and detailed document, the high lights are most emphatically set forth. The report of company A, 372nd Regiment, the District unit, reads in part as follows:
"Rating, satisfactory.
"Deficiencies, NONE.
"Discipline and organization—The discipline of this organization is far superior to that of the average national guard organization.
"Morale and esprit—The morale and esprit of this organization is unusually high, due to the fact that officers and men take their work seriously.
"Both officers and enlisted men showed a willingness to co-operate and work above the average national guard troop."
The marksmanship record conforms to the general report. Thirty of the fifty-three soldiers in the unit qualified. Altogether, the city may be proud of its unit and welcome the day when expansion to a full battalion is announced.
ALIENATION SUIT FOR $25,000 FILED
ALIENATION SUIT FOR $25,000 FILED
Charging that his home has been made desolate and ruined through the alienation of his wife's affections, Jerome B. Osborne, of 767 Fairmont Street, Northwest, has filed suit in the circuit division of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia against Benjamin B. Pinn, of 712 Kenyon Street, Northwest. He asks for damages in the sum of $25,000.
The filing of this suit adds another chapter to the sensational divorce proceedings now pending in the equity division of the District Supreme Court, in which Mr. Osborne charges his wife, Mrs. Ruth A. Osborne, with misconduct and names Mr. Pinn as the co-respondent.
In his suit for damages, Mr. Osborne declares that Mr. Pinn wrongfully and maliciously sought and kept the company of Mrs. Osborne, took automobile rides with her and met her at different times and places. By these acts, he avers, Mr. Pinn has alienated the affections of his wife for him. For the suffering and humiliation that have been caused him, Mr. Osborne asks $25,000 in damages from Mr. Pinn.
Mr. Osborne in this action as well as in his suit for an absolute divorce is represented by Attorneys Lambert, Yeastman and Canfield.

DOCTOR HELD IN N.Y.ON CHARGE OF 15 OLD GIRL YEAR
Brooklyn, N.Y., Aug. 31—Dr. Edward H. Willie, aged 38, residing at 1140 Herkimer Street, Brooklyn, was arrested last week by police officers acting upon the request of Washington, D.C., authorities, charged in a United States indictment with carnal knowledge. Dr. Willie lived in the District prior to having moved from the Richardson apartments, 1704 Vermont Avenue, Northwest, Washington, to the Brooklyn address. The indictment charges a serious offense against a fifteen-year-old girl on September 15, 1925. He appeared before United States Commissioner Wilson in the federal court, Brooklyn, last Friday in a hearing on the extradition proceedings that may return him to the District of Columbia for trial. Dr. Willie was represented by Counselor Rufus L. Perry who contended that no proof had been offered that his client was the man wanted. The Commissioner reserved decision. Meanwhile, Dr Willie, who is married and resides with his wife and son, is held under $5,000 bond. The case has been handled in Washington by Mrs. A. C. Burwell of the women's division of the police department.

ELKS VOTE $60,000 FOR EDUCATION
ELKS VOTE $60,000 FOR EDUCATION
By Louis R. Lautier Staff Correspondent
Cleveland, O., Sept. 1—The twenty-seventh annual convention of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks of the World, one of the most turbulent sessions in the history of the order, adjourned late last Saturday night.
The storm broke in full force on the second day of the Grand Lodge session, Wednesday, August 25, when George E. Bates, Grand Secretary, at the conclusion of his annual report, made a most scathing attack upon Harry H. Pace, who was a candidate for the office. He bitterly denounced Pace and charged him with every crime in the decalogue.
It was agreed that Mr. Pace should be given an opportunity to reply. On Thursday he availed himself of it and replied in a calm and dispassionate manner, reiterating his charges of misconduct on the part of Bates in office and adding that the Grand Lodge minutes had failed to show any record of the sum of $778 collected for Grand Lodge dues in Pittsburgh, Pa. in 1924.
This last charge made by Mr. Pace was the cause of a riotous scene on Friday morning when some of the delegate demanded to know what had become of this money. Grand Secretary Bates claimed that it had been properly entered on his cash book. With Pace sympathizers and Bates supporters on their feet yelling, Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson disposed of this controversy by declaring that the matter should have been brought to the attention of the Grand Lodge in Richmond. Va., in 1925.
Bates Wins Out
The election of a Grand Secretary was reached Thursday evening. It was largely an oratorical contest with Lieut. George W. Lee of Memphis, Tenn., and Armond W. Scott of Washington, D.C., carrying off the honors. J. Dalmus Steele of New York City nominated George E. Bates. Lieut. Lee nominated Harry H. Pace. Mr. Scott seconded the nomination of Mr. Bates. Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson came out openly for Pace and made a speech seconding his nomination. In the early balloting, Bates led by 5 to 1. When Mr. Pace saw that he was being beaten, he withdrew his name and moved to make the election of Bates as Grand Secretary unanimous.
Carter Re-elected Treasurer
The election of the Grand Treasurer followed. There were three candidates opposing Grand Treasurer Jas. T. Carter for reelection. They were James C. Martin of Chicago, Ill.; C. Tiffany Tolliver of Roanoke, Va., and John White of Richmond, Va. Carter led the field by 2 to 1, but before the balloting was finished each of the opposing candidates had his name withdrawn and the election of the Grand Treasurer was made unanimous.
Other officers who were elected are Dr. S. H. George, Paducah, Ky., Grand Esteemed Leading Knight; Dr. Roland R. Johnson, Brooklyn, N.Y., Grand Esteemed Lecturing Knight; Leonard Foreman, Akron, O., Grand Esteemed Loyal Knight; A. Clayton Cannal, Jr., Augusta, Ga., Grand Auditor; French Gallison, Hartford, Conn., Grand Tyler; Charles E. A. Starr, Denver, Co., Grand Inner Guard, and William Turner, Wheeling, W. Va., Grand Esquire. At the session on Saturday, Colonel John Marshall of Chicago and Wayman Wilkerson of Memphis were elected Grand Trustee.

GOV. OF VIRGINIA INVESTIGATING LYNCHING
Richmond, Va., Sept. 2—Yesterday, Governor Byrd of Virginia directed Attorney General Saunders to conduct an investigation of the lynching of Raymond Byrd, a Negro who was taken from the jail in Wytheville, Va. The Attorney General has designated Leon M. Brazille, an assistant, to proceed to Wytheville and handle the matter. The Governor has named a former United States District Attorney, Joseph H. Chitwood, as special prosecutor to pursue the cases that will grow out of the grand jury investigation.
Much criticism has been directed at the local authorities for the dilatory manner in which they have handled the matter. The local judge and state's attorney have both been called to Richmond from Wythe county to make explanations to the Governor concerning the failure of county officials to protect the prisoner who was taken from them and lynched two weeks ago.
ST. LOUIS FINANCIER VISITING MOTHER HERE
Dr. Charles E. Herriot and wife of St. Louis, Mo., arrived in the city Tuesday for a visit with the mother of the doctor at her home, 124 Randolph Place. The stay in Washington concludes a six weeks' tour of eastern points of interest, including several Canadian cities.
The visitor is a brother of Dr. Geo. M. Herriot, the druggist who until recently kept a drug store at 918 U Street, Northwest. The local pharmacist will leave here with his brother to become associated with him in business.
Dr. Charles Herriot is the president of the Peoples Finance Corporation, a concern that was organized four years ago with a capital of $80,000, and today has assets of more than $800,000 with a capital of $400,000, a figure that precisely represents the value of the home office building the concern dedicated early this spring.
The new structure is one of the finest banking buildings owned by Negroes in America. The dedication of the structure prompted widespread publicity. Prominent people from all over the country were guests of the concern for the occasion.

HOODED GANG SUSPECTED OF BEING KLANSMEN
Norfolk, Va., Sept. 2—Rev. Father V. D. Warren, a white Catholic priest in charge of St. Joseph's parish mission and school (colored) in Norfolk, who has been presenting a brass band of school pupils in concerts in the towns adjacent to Norfolk, was kidnapped by masked and hooded men while a concert was in progress last Wednesday evening at Princess Anne, a little town in Princess Anne County, Virginia, about 35 miles south of Norfolk.
The priest was removed from an auto in which he sat to observe the boys playing and was taken thirty miles away by about thirty hooded and robed figures, alleged to be Klu Klusmens. He was warned against fulfilling a rumored report that he proposed establishing a school for Negroes in the county.
While he was released uninjured, many of the group threatened the priest and denounced him as a "Nigger lover." The band was hastened back to Norfolk, and Negro residents in the community barricaded their homes expecting trouble. Citizens of the county, headed by their ministers of every denomination, have demanded an investigation of the outrage by the governor.
FINAL RALLY TO HELP REVEREND JERNAGIN WIN
The friends of Rev. W. A. Jernagin, pastor of Mt. Carmel Baptist Church, who is Washington's only entrant in the Mme. C. J. Walker "Trip Around the World Contest" have started a last chance rush to assure him of winning one of the prizes. The big contest will close September 15th. At present, Rev. Jernagin is sixth or seventh in the race. In order to win, he must move up to one of the first four positions. An appeal has been sent out to all of Washington to rally behind Rev. Jernagin. Last year Rev. M. J. Key, of this city, won first prize. If the nation's capital is to again be represented with a winner, Rev. Jernagin must be given all the help possible between now and the 15th of September.
A movement was initiated at Mt. Carmel Church last week to get a hundred friends of Rev. Jernagin to purchase Mme. Walker products amounting to ten dollars, and turn the votes over to him. Such a move would practically assure him of a winning position. Already a large number have responded to this appeal. Only two more weeks however, remain so an urgent call has been issued.
Rev. Jernagin will leave the city Saturday for Fort Worth, Texas, to attend the National Baptist Convention. During his absence from the city, his family and Mr. George A. Mack will have charge of his campaign.
HOUSTONS RETURN TO CITY
Prof. G. David Houston, principal of Armstrong High School, who has been spending the summer at his home in Boston, where he pursued a summer course in the Harvard graduate school of education, will be back in Washington by Saturday of this week, ready to resume his duties in the school system.
His daughter, Dorothy, one of this year's graduates of Dumbar High School, who accompanied him to Boston has been admitted to Radcliffe College in the freshman class which is limited to two hundred. Applications always far exceed this number, so that Miss Houston is quite fortunate.

Dr. Ingram, Female Spec-
ialist’s Advice on Goitres
‘The progress of goitre therapy has
vanced with marked strides. To-
, thyroidectomy, especially in those
not suffering with Grave's syndrome,
is @ comparatively riskless procedure.
Moreover, the resulting scar is almost
invisible, and eloquent evidence of per-
fected surgery, Basal metabolic stud-
ies, formerly regarded as difficult and
mysterious, are now the routine, and
almost as commonly one as the
¢linical thermometer. Thus, not only
is diagnosis of thyroid toxicity made
with precision, but the results of treat-
‘ment are evaluated, and even, Progno-
sis can be discussed with intelligence
by-the aid of this laboratory device.
In the field of prevention, the use
of fodine seems likewise to be & boon
to humanity, and whereas formerly a
large percentage of school children
seemed doomed to acquire goitre, the
systematic administration of minute
doses of iodine appears to succeed in
lucing is percentage. e. opti-
mist has much to be thankful for in
advances made in the control of thy-
roid conditions, a progress which is
only conaparable to that in treating
diabetes mellitus. x
‘These truths, however, cannot be
stated unqualifiedly, As ‘a result of
Prolonged study of this probblem, with
clinical observations of over nine
thousand goitre .ases, I am forced to
the conclusion that despite the per-
fection of thyroidectomy and the low-
gine, of is mortality rate, thfs meas.
ure is often abused. Despite the use
of iodine in the therapy of goitre, this
measure, too, jé largely abused, # fact
to which I have called attention for
sothe years, ‘and to which others are
now likewise calling attention. The
ead of goitre therapy can only
¢ reached when thyroidectomy and
iodins cease to be abused.
Because of these truths and my ex-
perience concerning goitres I. know
that this’ ailment can easily be
avoided. ?

give you free advice on this or any
other ailment you might have, at my

gates, however, had left the convention for their homes and the Grand Exalted Ruler decided to withdraw it from consideration at that time and submit it to the lodges.
A proposition giving authority for the establishment of two lodges in cities having 50,000 or more colored people was adopted. A similar proposition providing that in cities where there are two or more lodges it shall be lawful to institute one temple of Daughter Elks for each lodge, was also enacted.
Salaries Increased
Salaries of Grand Lodge officers were increased. The Grand Exalted Ruler and the Grand Secretary were increased to $4,000 a year each. Other salaries increased were those of the Grand Treasurer, the Grand Legal Adviser, the Grand Chaplain, the trustees and the commissioner of education.
Schools Given Money
Several educational institutions were given money. Bishop W. Sampson Brooks of the African Methodist Episcopal Church was given $1,000 for his work in Africa. Bishop W. J, Walls of the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church was given $1,000 for Livingstone College, Salisbury, N.C. Other institutions to receive donations were the National Training School for Girls, Washington, D.C.; the Cardinal Gibbons Institute at Ridge, Md., and a school in Mississippi.
The Grand Lodge officers made their reports last Wednesday and Thursday.
A committee headed by Perry W. Howard, Grand Legal Adviser, communicated with Governor A. V. Donahaye and saw Common Pleas Judge Samuel H. Gilbert and succeeded in getting a reprieve for Emmanuel Ross, 18-year-old boy, who was to have been electrocuted last Friday night. Governor Donahaye granted a stay of execution of two weeks. Ross was convicted of the murder of Isadore Steeck here on November 5, last, and the people are seeking to save his life because of his youth.
The establishment of a foreign bureau to be headed by C. C. Vall, Grand Organizer, was authorized. This bureau will have charge of the translation of the Elks' works into the foreign languages.
: Porters Union Indorsed.
A resolution favoring the organization of a Fullman porters' union was also adopted. The Grand ball was held last Wednesday evening at the public auditorium. Music was furnished by the M-Tee Monarch orchestra of New York City. The grand march at 12:30 was led by the Grand Exalted Ruler and Mrs. Wilson. Fully twelve thousand and persons were in attendance.
Cleveland Pleased with Elks
Cleveland Pleased with Elks
Both the city of Cleveland and the Elks are well pleased with the convention. Cleveland entertained the Grand Lodge wonderfully. The city cooperated with the general committee on arrangements and everything possible was done for the entertainment and comfort of the delegates and visitors.
The Elks on the other hand, local inhabitants say, made a fine impression upon Cleveland. A noticeable thing was the good order prevailing at all times. The city was so well pleased with having the convention here that the Elks were invited by the city manager to remember Cleveland the next time when selecting a meeting place.
The Grand Lodge voted to award Thomas W. Fleming and J. W. Turk
On Thursday, August 26, Miss Sarah E. Jenkins, 1736 U Street, Northwest, entertained a group of friends at breakfast in honor of New York visitors. Mrs. A. J.

DINING CAR COOKS GET INCREASE IN WAGES
Boston, mass., Sept. 1—Effective today, dining car cooks of the Boston and Albany Railroad get substantial wage increases by virtue of a superceding contract just consummated by the railroad company and the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees. Waiters are not included in the increased rates of pay, but, with the cooks, will be benefited from greatly improved working conditions.
The new contract results from fourteen months of persistent and tactful work by the Brotherhood representatives. The Railroad Labor Board was abolished about the time conditions were most favorable for complete organization victory. The useless Watson-Parker Law was invoked by the railway company but the organization demurred and insisted upon further negotiations, as the Watson-Parker Law absolutely is of no service for others than the "big four" transportation brotherhoods. The results reflect the wisdom of the course followed; for the management had denied every employee request, and through it one hundred per cent improvement in conditions of employment compensation of cooks and waiters accrues.
J. H. Marcy, superintendent of dining service, represented the railway and Rienzi B. Lemus, grand president of the Brotherhood, signed for the cooks-waiters, members of local No. 2 of this city.
Fine credit for the unusual achievement is due the local adjustment committee, of which T. O. Gee is chairman.

"TIGER" FLOWERS TO BE FEATURED IN FILM
By W. R. Arnold,
Publicity Director, T.O.B.A.
The winning of the world's middle
weight championship from Harry
Greb in Madison Square Garden, New
York, has placed "Tiger" Flowers on
the pinnacle of fistleucca. The chance
to see the famed fighter in action is
denied to many who reside in com-
munities where boxing is not given
public approval, or where it would be
injudicious for the "Tiger" to make
an appearance. Then, too, it would
be impossible for one man to make so
many visits as would be required to
have all of us see him.
Milton B. Starr, president of the T.O.B.A. circuit, and the owner of the Bijou Theatre, Nashville, has arranged to meet this need. He has contracted with the Georgia Deacon to feature a motion picture film now in process of production. The film which will be fittingly named "The Fighting Deacon," will be a five reeler with a substantial story of vivid interest running through it. There will be plenty of action without any vicious propaganda of any sort.
Bookings will be made through the T.O.B.A. offices. Release dates for the different sections of the country will be announced soon.

PULLMAN PORTERS BROTHERHOOD INDORSED
New York, August 27—The first anniversary of the organization of the Pullman Porters Union was celebrated with much gaiety and splendor at a monster rally held at St. Luke's Auditorium in Negro Harlem last night. The spacious hall, seating approximately 2000 people, was packed to capacity with porters and maids. Many were unable to gain admittance. Telegrams and letters of felicitation were received from labor organizations and prominent individuals all over the country and from Pullman porters en route to almost every point in the nation.
On the platform were officers of the union and the following persons who made short addresses of congratulations: Prof. LeRoy Bowman, of Columbia University; Dr. Norman Thomas, director; League for Industrial Democracy; Mr. William Kelly, editor, Amstrom News; Congressman F. H. LaGuardia; Mr. Benjamin Stolberg, labor journalist; McAllister Coleman, labor journalist; Mr. Fred R. Moore, editor, New York Age; Mrs. Elise McDougald, assistant principal, Public School No. 89.
Fraternities Give Support
During the session wired information was received from the national convention of the Shriners in Boston to the effect that a resolution had been adopted by that body approving the porters union, and offering practical assistance. The resolution offered had been unanimously adopted, except for the solitary vote of Frank Brown of Cincinnati, an Employees-Representation-Plan worker in the Pullman service who is also a Shriner.
The national convention of the Elks also passed resolutions of approval and support at their Cleveland convention.
Randolph Given Present
Toward the close of the program, Frank R. Crosswaith presented A. Philip Randolph, general organizer of the union, with a beautifully monogramed and expensive traveling bag as "a token of high appreciation, esteem, and deep gratitude for his efforts in behalf of their husbands and their race in general." The bag was a gift from the Ladies Auxiliary which is made up of the wives of Pullman porters.
After the program the vast audience was treated to ice cream, punch and cake which were served by the ladies of the Auxiliary and was followed by dancing.

More than three hundred Washington people were in Boston. Over 187 left the capital on a special train on Saturday, August 21 and over a hundred more motored to Boston.
The harmony that prevailed, the extensive charitable program laid down, the educational policy adopted, the donations made to several of the civil rights organizations, including the N.A.A.C.P. and the Civil Rights League, all mark the Boston sessions as being undoubtedly the most remarkable gathering of Masons ever assembled in the history of the order.

session with the original charter granted to Prince Hall exposed with the "great lights" of the order upon the chesterfield. The document had been brought under guard of the Boston police department from a vault in the Boston Safety Deposit Company for the occasion.
The officers elected by this organization for the next three years were P. G. M. Crittenden E. Clark of St. Louis, president; Egbert W. Brown of vice-president; John L. Hubert of Willard W. Allen of Baltimore, Md., 2nd vice-president; John L. Hubert of Wilmington, Del., secretary, and S. C. Johnson of Alken, S.C., treasurer.
The Deacons
The entire group of Grandmasters present, were made members of the Deacons' Club of Prince Hall Masons, the body adjourning one of its sessions for a short period for that purpose. The national secretary of the Deacons, J. A. Jackson, ranking member present, was given an associate membership in the Grandmasters' conference, a most unusual distinction for one not of Grand Lodge rank. Grandmaster Joseph Sullivan of New York supervised the opening of the Deacons' session. The Deacons conducted ritualistic ceremonies for nineteen candidates, and authorized the executive committee to re-arrange the ritual, manual and reorganize the official staff.
Albert R. Lee became Grandmaster of the Grand Encampment of the Knights Templars, the constitution being amended to substitute that title for the former one of president; and the name of the body being changed from conference to encampment. Few changes occurred in the official roster as a result of the election.
Womens' Auxiliary
The Order of Cyrene, the women's organization associated with the Knights Templars elected Mrs. Mary A. Parker of Washington, D.C., as Interstate Royal Grand Commandress. This body too, will meet next in Chicago in 1929.
The Daughters of Isis re-lected their officers. They will meet in Newark next year.
The convention attracted more than ten thousand Masons to the city. The Governor of the state and the mayor of Boston reviewed the parades of the two major organizations. Newspapers were most generous in the volume of space and praise tendered to the conventions. Two balls and a reception at the Mapledale Country Club were the major social events, though a score of

HOWARD PLAYGROUND
HOLDS GIRLS' NET TITLE
Howard playground has the distinction of holding the girls' District tennis championship for the first time in the history of the playgrounds. Hitherto inter-playground tournaments have consisted of single matches only, but this year the contenders were required to play in both singles and doubles matches. The winners were Misses Louise Harris and Doris Skinker, the latter being the District champion singles. The scores were as follows:
Howard defeated Cardoza, 6-2, 6-3; Howard defeated Willow Tree, 6-2, 6-4; Howard defeated Logan, 6-4, 7-5. The winners have received honorary membership in the Walker Memorial Tennis Club for the remainder of the season. They will also receive cups from the District of Columbia.
LINCOLN GIANTS WIN DOUBLE- HEADER
New York, Aug. 30- The Lincoln Giants defeated the crack Camden, N.J., club in both ends of a twin bill at the New York Catholic Protectory yesterday. The scores were 4-3 and 9-8.
Btoh games were bitterly contested and were won by the small margin of one run. The second game saw six pitchers take the mound, three for visitors and the same number for the home club, four of which were sent to the showers.
What the Press Agents Say
On Sunday and Monday, the Broadway Theatre will present what all showmen claim to be the freak hit of the season, Harry Pollard's wonderful picture, "The Cohens and Kellys," with George Sidney, Charlie Murray and Vera Gordon. It is a riot from start to finish and will please all classes of movie fans. If you missed it before don't let this chance slip by you.
On Tuesday a star cast will be presented that will speak for itself. Nazimova supported by Jack Pickford, Hobart Bosworth, Lan Keith, Mary Akin and Dot Farley in "My Son" will be shown.
On Wednesday and Thursday, the sensation from the pen of Rupert Hughes "Money Talks" with Clarke Windsor, Owen Moore and Bert Roach. The week will close on Friday and Saturday with that wonderful little star, Irene Rich, supported by Clive Brook, Louise Fazenda, Pauline Garon and Raymond McKee in "Compromise."
The Black and White Orchestra and Doc Perry's Society Band will furnish some melodies as usual.
A DeLUXE BILL AT THE LINCOLN
Manager Pinchback will offer his patrons an exceptional bill next week. Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, Clara Bow, (the movie find of the last five years), with Ernest Torrence and Percy Marmount will be seen in a pictureization of Sinclair Lewis' latest novel "Mantrap." It is a drama of two men and a woman and Clara Bow is simply great in her part.
For Wednesday, Thursday and Friday, Bebe Daniels, Ricardo Cortez and Wallace Beery appear in "Volcano." While it is not a "Colored" picture, yet the theme deals with the color question and you should not fail to see Bebe Daniels as an octoonor.
In addition to "Volcano," that screen classic "The Vision," suggested by Sir John Millais' famous painting, "Speak! Speak!" and a vocal solo by Jean Kelly-Haines will also be part of the Wednesday, Thursday and Friday program.
Saturday only, First National presents its new star, Ken Maynard, in the greatest western ever screened, "Senor Daredevil."
LON CHANEY AT THE REPUBLIC

THE SPORT REVIEW
RUBE FOSTER LOSES MIND, SENT TO HOSPITAL. RETURNED HOME BALTIMORE BLACK SOX SPLIT WITH CUBANS
Chicago, Ill., Sept. 1—Andrew "Rube" Foster, famous baseball magnate and star pitcher of other days, had a violent outbreak at his home, 4131 Michigan Avenue, early last Wednesday, August 25. An appeal to quiet him was made to the Wabash Avenue-police station, and the boss of the American Giants was taken to a psychopathic hospital for observation and treatment. He has been returned home, according to reliable reports. "Rube" Foster was one of the greatest stars that baseball has ever produced. He originally came from Texas, a "two-gun" man and gained fame by pitching the Leland Giants to victory over the Chicago White Sox. During his career, he pitched for the Philadelphia Giants, the Cuban ex-Giants and the Leland Giants. A split, occurred in the last Club and he became the manager of the American Giants. He and the late C. I.
KID WDODY KNOCKS, OUT
TWO IN THREE ROUNDS
By Fred R. Byrd
"Kid" Woody, the pride of the Government Printing Office, added two more knockout victories to his credit last Thursday night, when he stopped "Kid" Moca of Baltimore in round one of their scheduled four-round fight at the opening show of the Beaver Dam Country Club at Landover, Md. The crowd of Woody's followers from the Government Printing Office, who had made the long trip from Washington to see their favorite in action, were loud in their acclaim of the "Kids" victory and asked Mr. Miller for a more suitable opponent for their favorite. Mr. Miller, very obligingly, threw in Eddie Jester, a fast and clever 175-pounder with an emphasis on the pound.
Jester was scheduled to fight Young Jack Johnson from Fort Myer next Tuesday at Keniworth for the chance to meet "Kid" Woody; but his defeat last night by "Kid" Woody has changed the schedule since Woody gave him the gas with a right-hand upper cut in round two. It is now probable that Woody will meet that hard-slugging soldier from Fort Myer next Tuesday in place of Jester. If he is successful in whipping him, the lovers of the boxing game who patronize such contests, and even those who do not attend such bouts but who read of the sport in the several newspapers should certainly send letters to the different promoters undr whom Woody fights asking that they give him a better chance than four rounders, because of his knock-out record: 27 fights, 24 K.O.'s, 2 lost and 1 decision.
Woody is not only a very scientific boxer, but he is also a gentleman, churchman, clean living and a credit to his race and profession. His friends in the world's greatest printing plant believe Heinie Miller will give him his chance, providing there is sufficient demand for his services. So kindly send in your card or letters to the newspapers in Woody's behalf.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY. SEPTEMBER 3. 1926
LOUIS R. LAUTIER, Sports Editor
Taylor were the organizers of the National Negro Baseball League, of which he is president. He was noted for his cunning and brain work as a pitcher. As a manager he ran his ball club, instructing his players both on the offense and defense. At crucial stages in games, his pitchers got their orders from him. Until 1915 the American Giants were the greatest baseball club of its kind in the United States. Under his management they have played in all parts of the United States and Cuba. For years they played in Palm Beach, Fla., in the winter, and represented the Royal Poinciana Hotel in the inter-hotel winter series. He produced such stars as Petway, Whitworth, Grant, Pete Hill, Francis, Bobby Williams, Malarcher, Lloyd, Wickware, Tom Williams, Duncan, Torrienti and others too numerous to mention.
BLAGK SOX DIVIDE DOUBLE-HEADER
The Washington Black Sox divided a double-header last Sunday with the Myrtle A. C., winning the first game 3 to 2 and losing the nightcap, 4 to 1. The first game was a pitcher's battle between Lyman of the Black Sox and C. Barbour of the Myrtle A. C. Barbour held the league leaders to six hits, two of which were doubles by Grant, Black Sox left-fielder. The Myrtle A. C. got but seven hits off Lyman, but lost the game when a ninth inning rally fell one run short.
One big fifth-inning was enough for the Myrtle A. C. to tuck away the nightcap. They scored their four runs in this frame. Six Black Sox errors contributed to their victory.

Baltimore, Md., Aug. 30—The Black Sox divided a twin Saturday afternoon with the Cuban Stars, losing the first game, 6 to 5, and winning the second, 1 to 6. The Sox staged a belated rally in the eighth inning of the first frame, but the three runs scored fell one short of trying the count.
The locals counted the winning tally of the second game in the fourth inning. Wilson beat out a scratch hit and went to third on O. Johnson's single, scoring on a long sacrifice fly which Taylor lifted to center field.

TUSKEGEE TRAINING STARTS SEPTEMBER 14
Tuskegee Institute, Ala., Sept. 2—Football-practice at Tuskegee Institute will begin September 14, according to an announcement by Clevle L. Abbott, head coach and director of athletics. This year will mark the beginning of Coach Abbott's fourth season at Tuskegee. Interest in the past achievements of the Climson team will deepen and speculation will naturally arise as to whether or not the crafty coach will be able to produce an eleven that will be thrice winner of the Southern Championship. The Tiger Mentor will have as his assistants, T. C. Myers, former star Lincoln quarterback, fresh from a year at Columbia University where he has just taken a degree. Mr. Myers will resume his former position as assistant head coach and will have charge of the backfield.
John H. Brown, former Virginia Union University linesman, will again instruct and construct the Crimson forward wall. He will be assisted by George W. Goodwin, one of Tuskegee's greatest fullbacks and J. E. Fields, brilliant Wilbarforce University teckle. Ross "Charley" Owens, South

NELSON'S HAIR DRESSING
"I OWE IT ALL TO HI-JA"
Dakota State College, rated as one of the greatest halfbacks produced in the Northwestern Conference within the past ten years, will serve as one of the backfield coaches. It would seem that the coach will have sufficient material on hand to build a team of the highest calibre. In the squad will be found such regulars as Captain-elect Kitchen, former captains Duncan and Tadlock, I. Robinson, Paul Smith, Ivory Smith, Ellis, Jefferson, Steward, Joyner, Stevenson, Robert and Thomas Camp, Harris, Wooten, Bailey, Townes, Wiley, Champion, Adams and C. Robinson. There will be a wealth of reserve material on hand who will be strong contenders for berths on Abbott's 1926 gridiron model.

ON'S
When tiger meets tiger, a fight is bound to ensue. That was shown last Sunday afternoon when the game between the LeDroit Tigers and the Oriental Tigers ended in a row. The umbrella is said to have been the cause when he engaged a player in a fight. The game is under protest and President Hayes Jones of the Union League is expected to forfeit it to one or the other of the two clubs. There is a probabilty that he will order it thrown out and played over.

We are proud of that declaration,

THE ELKS TAKE PROGRESSIVE
STEP. :
Judging from a basis of construe.

the recent convention of Elks held in
Cleveland, with its. educational pro-
gram, wins first place. Apparently
tiring of the stereotyped. wind-jam-
ming and poirits of order, tho Elks
with J. Finley Wilson as Grand: Ex-
alted Ruler, initiated a policy of as-
sisting in the education of the youth
of the race. ¢ &
Last year was the first yeah of the
mew program, and the order raised
‘$17,000 for education. At the grand
lodge convention this year, the order
‘agredd to start a campaign to raise
$60,000 during the coming year. The
grand lodge also voted to donate
$1000 to Livingstone CoRege at Salis-
bury, N.C, $1000 to the school of
Bishop Sampson A. Brooks at Monro-
via, Liberia, $500 to the National
Training School for Girls of which
Miss Nannie H. Burroughs is presi-
dent, Washington, D.C., and a like a-
mount to two other schools:
This is the largest evidence of the
new awakening spirit of the Negro to
support his own education, } By tak-
ing the lead, the Elks deserve the
unanimous praise and congratulations
of the race. The order has alse
pointed the way for other organiza-

THE MASONS IN ROSTON
| The following editorial. from the
Boston (daily) Telegram of August
25th was prompted by the Masonic
gatherings held in that city, last week.
OUR CONVENTION GUESTS
Boston has as her guests the dele-
gates to the conventions of colored
Masons. Among the men who have
gathered here are many who are lead-
crs of their people, tireless workers for
their race, Boston should be cordial
to these conventions for, in genera-
tions now dead, Borton was a beacon
‘which illuminated the road to freedom
for the opprossed fathers of so many
of these delegates,
| And the city’s guests are among
friends, for the very atmosphere oi
Boston is fragrant with the memories
‘of the heroic leaders of another day

‘when the Emancipation Proclamation
was written.

RIZET DIED A “FAILURE” ei en ae ahi hi nn ee ee ae ne eae
Bizet, the composer. of “Carmen,
Probably tne most successful of all
classic operas so-far as the seope o
it popularity is concerned, died at 37
‘and it is said he was broken-hearted
over the apparent failure of the opets
on its first presentation. .
. Reading between the lines, one-may
surmise a lack of strength of charac.
ter; that he was faint-hearted as well
as broken-hearted, The lack of cop.
fidence possibly. overwhelmed _ this
composer in his sreatest hour of tri-
umph, though veiled. with skepticism
and fierce criticism in his day. It was
his hour of triumph, we repeat,” be-
cause “Carmen” was destined to. live
on dows. through the ages and that's
‘sufficient’ evidence of "its intrinsic
value from any given viewpoint.
In this. we of the present day, may
“finda lesson well worth learning. It
is found in just this one word, Conf
dence. How many young: composers,
musicians and- students have failed
because of the lack of confidence. Con-
fidence, first above all, in Self, then
in doing the task at ‘hand, ‘matters
not how difficult or trivial. %
-_ Students may learn sonéthing from
this, of inealeulable value in the pur-
suit of a musical education at this,
the beginning ‘of another music study
year under private teachers or in miu-
sic schools, If one loves music, don't
hesitate to commertte the study... But
whatever one dogs, keep diligently at
it with confidence until suetess is at-
tained. So many commence the study
lacking confidence, and so very few
attain the heights, that it isn’t ‘at: al]
surprising why failure stares them
in the face,
Certainly one will have some migh-
ty obstacles to. surmount. All have
them at one time or another, but that
shouldn't deter one. Every master
composer had his critic but they’ built
far better than they knew, over and
above all.
Can't we gain some inspiration from
euch giants of music as, Bach,-who
rescued the art of notation and musi-
cal form from the choas of the dark
ages, deyeloped it, and made it a uni-
versal medium of expressing human
feelings; Beethoven, who rose above
the rigid fundamentalism of the form-
er? Chopin, Schubert and Lisat
started kicking over the traces of or-
thodoxy, and finally came the great
radical, Wagner. He, was the snsroh-
ist of tonal form. ‘He. sounded the
first notes of a battle between intel-
lectuality and arrogant. ignorance.
Grieg, the singer of simple folk
tales, whose “Peer Gynt” suite repre-
sents possibly, the truest expression
of certain forms of human émotion.
Come Tschaikowsky, telling the tales
of Russia and the grandeur of its
Tartar civilization. Charpentier, in
his modern “Impressions of Italy,” the
Omega of the revolutionary alphabet,
of which Wagner wrote the Alpha.
These end other musical souls should
inspire confidence, from the tone pic-
inres they have painted on the wall
of time.
CHOIR RULES
During this month, September, the
choirs generally resume their work.
We hope they have enjoyed their va-
cations and also hope for better and
more spiritual music during the’ com-
ing season of song. At this time,
however, most directors experience
‘poor attendance on the part of mem:
bers, therefore, we thought it would
be a good thing to republish these
‘choir rules of a California church,
which may serve a good purpose, as
follows
“Bach attendance at each service
Sunday scores ce .
“Rehearsals not scored unless fo
tardiness deduction.
“Tardiness at rehearsals or services
deducts one-half point from total score
of each member. -
“Absence from rehearsals bars jem
bers from services the following Sum
day.
“Absences for two complete Sun-
days without meritorious excuses, wil
be considered as resignation.
“Resignation will be accepted as of
date tendered.
“Rehearsals to begin promptly at
7:45’and continue till 9:15.”
Now, if one wants to start a littl
trouble in.a choir, just try onee t
enforee strictly, rules similar to thos
above and it'll come. However, choit
rules should be enforced regardless 0
consequences, if a really efficient choi
is desired. Drones and poor Voice:
should be left in the rear and let alon
