BOARD DECLARES 3 ARMSTRONG TEACHERS' JOBS VACANT Popular Dentist Sued for Back Alimony MISS JACKSON WINS TWO- YEAR FIGHT; TEACHERS WILL FIRST in Advertising and Circulation BOARD D Popular WIFE OF DR. "SYL" SMITH ASKS COURT FOR BACK ALIMONY Mrs. Naomi D. Smith, of 2607 Nichols Avenue, Southeast, is asking the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia to give her judgment against her husband, Dr. Sylvester B. Smith, a dentist, for $180 alleged to be due her as back temporary alimony. Justice William C. Hitz on September 22, 1925, ordered Dr. Smith to pay his wife the sum of $15 a week as temporary alimony. These payments were made regularly, according to the motion of his wife for judgment against her husband, until June 20, last. Since then she claims, her husband has not made a single payment. Dr. Smith has been out of the city for possibly six months, it was learned, and service of the papers in the case was attempted to be made upon George E. C. Hayes, his attorney. Mr. Hayes denies that this is proper service. Mrs. Smith is suing her husband, through Attorneys Fischer and Fischer, for separate maintenance. She claims that her mother-in-law, Mrs. Capitolia Smith, interfered in their domestic affairs and that her husband failed to provide for her. Dr. Smith denied these charges and claimed that his wife treated his mother with disrespect after their marriage. Both Dr. and Mrs. Sylvester Smith have been prominent in society here. "Syl" Smith is a former national singles tennis champion, having won the title in 1912. Mrs. Smith is the aughter of Marcus Dale, a mail carrier. They were married August 9, 1924, by the Rev. Charles H. Wesley. Mrs. Smith filed her suit for separate maintenance a year later, August 20, 1925. LEMUS SECURES ANOTHER RAISE IN PAY New York, Sept. 9—On the same day that the big eastern railroads named the vice-president of the Erie and the general manager of the Pennsylvania to arbitrate the rejected wage increase demands of 80,000 conductors, baggage masters, brakemen, flagmen and switchmen, the Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees of which Rienzi B. Lemus is president, concluded three years of negotiation with the New York Central Lines. As a result the wages of dining car cooks have been increased to the standard wage scale in effect in the eastern region, which were established on the Pennsylvania in 1921 and on the New Hayen, Boston and Albany in 1926. Waiters will receive $85 a month for out-of-car service, and quarters in Harlem, resulting in a saving of $12,000 a year in lodging expenses. Improved working conditions also resulted, and dining car employees will be given annual passes on the same basis as other classes of employees. The contract was signed by the Adjustment Committee of Local No. 3, Brotherhood of Dining Car Employees, Wm. Walthaur, Twentieth Century Limited chef serving with the only colored stewart, John Jones, chairman. The mainspring of the machinery was J. B. Blitting, president of Local No. Washington Tribune THE CONGRESSIONAL LIBRARY, FIRST ST., S. E. PUBLISHED WEEKLY DECLARES Dentist RESIGNATION OF REV. S. P. HOOD ACCEPTED HERE By Louis R. Lautier The resignation of the Rev. Solomon Porter Hood as United States minister to Liberia has been accepted; the State Department has announced. A successor has not yet Rev. SOLOMON P. HOOD been chosen. Ill health is given as the cause for the resignation of Mr. Hood. Prior to returning to the United States, he is said to have had several fainting spells in Monrovia. Inadequate salary is also ascribed as a cause by those who know living conditions in the Liberian capital. The salary of the United States minister to Liberia is only $5,000 a year, which is $5,000 less than is paid to any other minister of the United States. A bill to increase it to $10,000 a year failed to be passed in the last session of Congress. Salary Too Small According to Joseph C. Crew; acting secretary of State, "With the cost of living at Monrovia for a foreigner being even higher than it is in the United States, it is impossible for the American minister, unless he be a man of large means, to meet the requirements of diplomatic life and his family necessities on the salary now granted to the post." The Rev. Solomon Porter Hood was appointed the United States minister to Liberia on October 26, 1921, by the late President Warren G. Harding. Shortly after his confirmation by the Senate he left for Monrovia where he assumed his duties. In January last, he was given an indefinite leave of absence on account of ill health. Reid Page-Clark, white, was sent from the State Department to Monrovia as charge de affaires. Clifton R. Wharton, the secretary of the legation, could not be put in charge, the State Department said, because he was only a third class secretary and was lacking in experience. Mr. Hood returned to the United States in last February. WILL OF DR. R. L. MOGUIRE OFFERED FOR PROBATE WILL OF DR. R. L. MOGUIRE OFFERED FOR PROBATE The will of the late Dr. Robert L. McGuire was admitted to probate and letters testamentary were issued to Mrs. Julia W. McGuire, his widow and executrix of his will, upon the order of Justice William C. Hitz last Thursday. Her bond was fixed at $1,000. The property disposed of by the will consists only of real estate in Maryland valued at $2,050 and personal property valued at $3,170.38. The other property accumulated by Dr. McGuire was put in the name of his wife prior to his death. Dr. McGuire bequeathed the sum of $500 and his private library to his son, Robert Grayson McGuire, and the remainder of his property to his wife. The petition for probate of the will and letters testamentary was filed through Attorney Charles S. Cuney. Dr. Robert G. McGuire died August 6, last. NATIONAL BAPT. CONVENTION IN INDIANAPOLIS Indianapolis, Ind.—The National Baptist Convention (Boyd Wing) will meet in this city next week. The number of special trains already booked, insures one of the largest attendances in the history of the organization. Rev. J. Edmund Wood of Danville, Ky., is president of the Convention and Rev. Henry Allen Boyd of Nashville, Tenn., is secretary. COURT REFUSES TO OUST COLORED FROM PROPERTY A mandatory injunction to compel Julia Branch and all other colored persons who may be living with her at No. 120 Adams Street, Northwest, to vacate the premises and to prevent the sale of this property to colored persons, was denied last week by Justice Jennings Bailey in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia. He followed the precedent of Chief Justice Walter I. McCoy in the case involving No. 77 Randolph Street, Northwest. Chief Justice McCoy held that mandatory injunctions ought not to be granted until final hearing unless the situation indicates an absolute necessity for their use in the preservation of the rights of the parties. The injunction was sought by William S. and Elizabeth Sill, 132 Adams Street; Helen N. Walsh, 125 Adams Street; and Cecil E. and Ella P. Custer, 116 Adams Street, Northwest, through Attorneys Harry A. Grant and Martin F. O'Donghue. It was asked against Kirby Kibbler, a real estate salesman employed by the Munsey Trust Company; William C. Robberts, an employee of the Columbia Title Company, and Mrs. Julia Branch. The court was also asked for a mandatory injunction compelling the defendants to abide by the provisions of a restrictive convenient which provides that this property shall never be rented, leased, sold, transferred or conveyed to any colored person under a penalty of $2,000. The Charges The plaintiffs charged in their petition that Kibber sought to evade and violate this restrictive convenient by conveying the property to Roberts, who in turn conveyed the property to Mrs. Branch. She took possession before suit was brought. Through Attorneys George E. C. Hayes and Earnest Davis, Mrs. Branch claims that the immediate vicinity of Adams Street, between First and Second Streets, Northwest, is largely populated by colored persons and that this possession and occupancy has in no sense depreciated the value of the surrounding property. The plaintiffs had alleged that the possession of No. 120 Adams Street, Northwest, by Mrs. Branch is "confiscatory, depreciative and absolutely ruinous" to real estate in that section. Mrs. Branch, through her attorneys, also declares that the convenient is in its nature a contract in unlawful restraint of alienation and is opposed to the public policy of the United States. Attorney Hayes says that the first question has never been passed upon by the courts. BANKERS DISCOUNT CORP. ORGANIZED HERE The Bankers Discount Corporation was organized this week under the laws of the State of Delaware by a group of local men. It will have its principal office at 613 F Street, Northwest. This company will do a general discount business, buying and selling any kind of securities and dealing in mortgages. Its authorized capital stock is $50,000, nearly all of which, according to the promoters, has been subscribed for about twelve men. The principal stockholders, the directors say, are Robert L. Evans, John R. Hawkins, George E. C. Hayes, Charles H. Housfon and Mortimer M. Harris. Mr. Harris stated that he would immediately turn over to this new corporation considerable of the business handled through his real estate office. NOTABLE CAREER OF MAJ. BROOKS ENDED BY DEATH Funeral services for Lieutenant Colonel Arthur Brooks, who was property custodian at the White House during the terms of four Presidents, were held this Friday afternoon at the St. Mary's Protestant Episcopal Church, the Rev. O. L. Mitchell, pastor, officiating. Interment was in Harmony cemetery. The honorary pall bearers were Garnet C. Wilkinson, Judge James A. Cobb, Emmett J. Scott, Dr. C. Sumner Wormley, Dr. T. Edward Jones and Dr. E. C. Terry. The active ball bearers were John E. Wright, West A. Hamilton, Walter J. Singleton, Alphonse O. Stafford, Charles L. Harris and John E. Washington.

He was given every possible medical aid. He was first treated by the White House physi- (Continued on page 8) POSTMASTER NEW DENIES OFFICE HAS ANY SEGREGATION POSTMASTER NEW DENIES OFFICE HAS ANY SEGREGATION "There will be no discrimination between citizens in considering applications for positions in the Post Office Department." That is the substance of a letter of Postmaster General Harry S. New to Dr. Clifford Mitchell, of 7134 Eggleston Avenue, Chicago, Illinois, who had written him complaining about colored carriers serving white districts and charging that Negroes were neither efficient nor loyal. "I live in a residence district in Chicago," wrote Dr. Mitchell, "where there are few or no Negroes. Yet the Government sees fit to administer its mail service in this neighborhood almost entirely by Negroes." He urged the Postmaster General to use his influence "to give white service to white people and in particular to those who wish to remain in the Republican party." The Letter Postmaster General New replied as follows: "Let me remind you, Sir, that all citizens of the Unite States are guaranteed and entitled to the same privileges under the Constitution, without discrimination or qualification as to race or color. If they enter the public service at all, they do so under the same conditions and as the result of examinations that are prescribed for all applicants, without any reservations. They are eligible to receive appointments upon qualification to positions in the classified Civil Service. "I do not at all subscribe to your intimation that coerced employees are not loyal and efficient. The records of this department disprove it. Let me assure you, Sir, that there will be no discrimination between citizens in considering applications for positions in the Post Office Department. They will receive the treatment and be protected in the rights to which all American citizens are entitled, and this to the very foulest extent possible." LOTT CAREY CONVENTION SELECTS RICHMOND, VA. Brooklyn, N.Y.—The Lott Carey Baptist Foreign Mission Convention closed its 28th annual session a mere Sunday, September 4th.

Richmond, Va., was selected as the next meeting place. The Sixth Mt. Zion Baptist Church' will be the entertaining church. The convention will meet before the first Sunday in September, 1927. WHITES PROTEST INJUSTICE TO NEGRO CITIZENS Kansas City, Mo.—A delegation of forty white property owners have lodged a protest with the park board against condemning sixty-two Negro homes in order to create a park which will join Troost Lake and Spring Valley parks. The probosa' to condemn the homes has been made by the Linwood Improvement Association of which John H. Bowman is president. The association frankly admits it is seeking to drive out the Negro families and draw a "deadline" at Twenty-seventh Street. At present, Negro families are occupying homes on Highland and Vine Streets to Twenty-ninth and on Woodland Avenue to Twenty-eighth Street. Bad Treatment The spokeman for the property holders was T. S. Gough. "The way the Negroes of this town have been treated in the matter of homes is shameful." Mr. Gough said. "Surveys and reports show Negroes here have miserable places in which to live. Their death rate is very high. Then, when they make an effort to get better homes and spread out where there is light and air, along comes a group which says, 'You shall not.' It is not right, and I do not believe the members of this honorable board want to become parties to driving 62 peaceful, law-abiding families from their homes. It has not been the record of Kansas City that homes have been condemned by this board for parks and I am sure this honorable body will not want to break that precedent." "Hired Agitators" Following Mr. Gough's address, the Rev. D. A. Holmes, pastor of the Vine Street Baptist Church, spoke briefly to the board. Rev. Holmes sketched the growth of population among Negroes and pointed out that these people had to go somewhere to live. He said the idea the Negroes were going to attempt to force their way to Linwood boulevard was posterous. He pointed out the fact that a great deal of misrepresentation was being spread by the Linwood association and its executives, whom he charged were "hired agitators." Edward Zea, who presided over the board in the absence of F. C. Sharon, president, who is away on a vacation, said the board would do nothing without the full membership being present. He said he was not sure whether a full board would be present next Thursday, but certainly there would be one on the following Thursday. He asked all who were against the condemnation for a park to stand up. All stood excent two women, who were from the Linwood Association. DR. HERRIOT LEAVES CITY Dr. George Herriot, who was the proprietor of Herriot's Pharmacy at 918 U Street, Northwest, left the city Thursday with his brother and brother's wife, Dr. and Mrs. Charles E.

The drug store that had been owned and managed by Dr. Herriot is now under management of Dr. John T. Rischer and Mr. Daniel M. Gary, who are part owners of the enterprise with Dr. Herriot. MRS. MCNEILL ATTENDS FIRST BOARD MEETING Mrs. Alice McNeill, newly appointed member of the Board of Education to succeed Mrs. Coralie F. Cook, attended her first meeting of the board since its reorganization meeting in July, at the Franklin School, Wednesday afternoon. She showed Mrs. ALICE McNEILL a ready grasp of the business coming before the board at this meeting. After adjournment, Mrs. McNeill, the Rev. F. I. A. Bennett and Dr. J. Hayden Johnson, other members of the board, held an impromptu meeting with Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of schools. In an interview after the meeting, Mr. Wilkinson stated that much time would be given to the application of the latest methods of the supervision of study. The administrative officers of the schools, he said, gave considerable time last year to studying methods of study supervision last year, and it is their plan to put these methods into effect this year. JUDGE RESERVES DECISION ON MAN WANTED HERE JUDGE RESERVES DECISION ON MAN WANTED HERE New York September 8.—Federal Commissioner William J. Wilson last Friday afternoon reserved decision for one week in the case of Dr. Edward H. Willie, of 1140 Herkimer Street, against whom extradition proceedings had been brought by the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia. Willie is charged on a bench warrant from Washington with criminally assaulting a 15-year-old girl who was employed as a servant in his home, the Richardson Apartments, 1704 Vermont Avenue, Northwest, Washington, D.C. Willie was indicted in Washington on a charge of carnal knowledge. TWO DRUG STORES ROBBED Two drug stores were fobbed this week, according to reports made to the police. Whiskey and drugs constituted the greater part of the loot taken from the drug store at Tenth and R Streets, Northwest, Dr. John L. Davidson, proprietor, told police. Sixteen pints of Green River and Old Taylor whiskey, valued at $125, were stolen. The drugs consisted of codine, morphine, sulphate, heroin, several different products containing opium, and a half dozen bottles of bay rum. Foxing a cellar door, thieves early Sunday entered the drug store at 1748 Seventh Street, Northwest, and took three cartons of cigarettes and a folding carton, valued at $40, Dr. G. C. Howley, the proprietor reported to the police of the second precinct. IN WASHINGTON nearly everybody reads the TRIBUNE VACANT ON WINS TWO- TEACHERS WILL RED ELSEWHERE The Board of Education at its meet- ing last Wednesday afternoon, voted to declare vacant three positions in the Armstrong Technical High School, which are being filled by teachers without the necessary qualifications, and appoint in their stead three teachers who are on the eligible regi- ster. The three teachers who will be appointed, are Miss Mabel M. Jackson, of 1834 Ninth Street,; Northwest; Mrs. Mary Craft Cottrell, of 1850 Third Street, Northwest, and John F. Mowery, of 1721 First Street, Northwest. Miss Susie V. Jennings, of 933 Westminster Street, Northwest, who was detailed to the Armstrong Technical High School in 1913, and Miss Elizabeth D.

These vacancies will be filled by Miss Jackson and Mrs. Cottrell. Mr. Mowery is an instructor in automobile mechanics. Whose place he will be given could not be learned. The action of the Board of Education, in voting to declare these positions vacant and appoint three persons from the eligible register is the result of court proceedings instituted by Miss Jackson, who filed a petition for a writ of mandamus in the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia, to compel the Board of Education to appoint her. Justice A. A. Hoehling issued the writ. The board asked the corporation counsel to take an appeal, but he failed to do so. At the board meeting Wednesday afternoon Superintendent Ballou advised the board to make these three ap- (Continued on page 4) FAIRMOUNT HORSE SHOW SUCCESS The first Horse Show given under the auspices of the Fairmount and ISAIAH MILES Cedar Heights Citizens Association closed Tuesday night. Although the weather marred the first day, the management expressed itself as being entirely satisfactory with the showing made. The grounds were adequately equipped to handle the affair and showed that the officials of the show had put in considerable work getting things in shape. The dance pavilion was one of the last things completed. The horses displayed won the admiration of the throng.

Esther Bigeou Stage Star "Through An A I Found Won "Esther," said an actress, who appeared on the same bill with me some years ago, "why don't you use HiJa Quinine Dressing? It would improve your hair and increase your beauty one hundred per cent." My hair has always been a trial-to me so I tried HiJa. "Thank heavens I did, for as my actress friend had told me, this wonderful, delicately scented, nongreasy hair dressing did wonders with my hair. It made it longer, straighter and more silky than it had ever before. It enabled me to dress it in becoming styles that increased my stage charm. Soon, instead of being my least attractive feature, my hair became my most admired physical asset and since that day has always been complimated.

COLLEGIATE INSTITUTE TO OPEN SEPTEMBER 15 Institute, W. Va., September 1, 1926. Announcement has been made by the administrative offices of The West Virginia Collegiate Institute that that institution will be open in all departments on September 15, with September 14, as registration day. Preliminary enrollment of old students and applications from prospective students point to the largest regular session enrollment in the history of the school, with freshman college entrants from every high school in the State and from many high schools of neighboring States, with a large number of students seeking transfer from other colleges, with advanced standing high school applicants from every junior high school in the State and with many firstyear high school applicants from eighth grade graduating classes located in sections in which there are no high schools. It is estimated that the number of new students will thus mount to three hundred, taxing the capacity of classroom and dormitory buildings, notwithstanding the additional space which has recently been provided. New Dormitory for Young Men The most outstanding addition to the campus is Gore Hall, the new dormitory for young men, which is rapidly nearing completion. If this building is not entirely ready for the opening of school it will be ready soon thereafter. Built of tapestry brick, with three floors and a basement of best fire-proof construction throughout, and with trunk room, pressing room, shower rooms, barber shop, reception lobby, guest rooms, and dormitory space for approximately 200 young men, this building will add measurably to the beauty of the campus as well as relieve a congestion which has long been a source of annoyance. Moreover, the new dormitory for young men means additional space for the girl students, since in the final re-arrangement it will be possible to release Glasscock Hall, now used by boys, for use as a dormitory for young men. Campus Changes A siege of rainy weather has slowed the progress of work on the campus, which includes the construction of a 25-foot terrace around the administration building, the grading down of the campus from this building to the lower quadrangle and the laying of a gravel road from the main entrance through the grounds. Not all of this can be finished by the opening of school, but temporary walks and road passage will be provided so that the work of the institution may go on. New Equipment A Mergenthaler linetype and a cylinder press will be part of the equipment added in the printery. The linetype will replace the one which was destroyed during the disastrous fire of 1923. New laboratory equipment has been ordered for agriculture and geology, and will be installed in the laboratory rooms of the administration building which were not fitted out last year. With the five thousand dollars appropriated for the purchase of books for the year 1925-26 the institution was able to assemble an excellent nucleus for the school library. To the volumes thus secured, and with a part of a second five thousand dollars appropriated for this year, many hundred well-selected books have been added during the summer, thus increasing the efficiency of instruction and the opportunity of students to read and know the best of classical and modern science and literature. All in all, the year should prove to be one of the institution's most successful. CHARLES A. MARSHALL APPOINTED ELKS' DEPUTY Charles A. Marshall, florist and chiropractor, has been appointed district deputy of the Improved Benevolent and Protective Order of Elks for the District of Columbia, succeeding E. W. Bundy, a member of Columbia Lodge No. 88. Mr. Marshall is a member of Morning Star Lodge No. 40. Mr. Bundy is a candidate for exalted ruler of Columbia Lodge. Each year the district deputyship alternates between Columbia and Morning Star Lodges, and this year J. Finley Wilson. Grand Exalted Ruler, selected Mr. Marshall from Morning Star Lodge. Mr. Marshall has been quite active in support of Grand Exalted Ruler Wilson. He was the one delegate at the Cleveland convention, who voted for Grand Exalt? I Ruler Wilson when the Morning Star delegation decided to cast 27 ballots against his re-election. Mr. Marshall also favored Detroit as the next convention city while his delegation voted for New York City. PAST DAUGHTER RULER IN CITY Mrs. Laura E. Williams, of New York City, Past Grand Daughter Ruler of Daughter Elks, who is the guest of Mrs. Lillian Long, district deputy for the District of Columbia; and Mrs. Matilda Moton, Past District Deputy, motored to Vienna, Va., last Tuesday to visit Fidelity Temple No. 384.

McGee, veterans' bureau messenger, was sentenced to 800 days in jail Thursday by Judge Schuldt in police court for the alleged theft of money from the bureau employees. McGee was convicted of the theft of $5 from Mrs. Emma Hall, 121 Eleventh Street, Northeast, an employee of the claims division. Mrs. Hall discovered McGee taking her pocketbook from a desk drawer Monday, she told the court yesterday. M. P. McInerney, chief of the veterans' bureau investigation department, placed McGee under arrest. McInerney told Judge Schuldt that he believed McGee is connected with thefts amounting to more than $800 which had been reported in the last year, and that much of it was money that victims could ill afford to lose. He said that in several cases the money was intended to pay rent or to finance vacations. TWO DUNBAR HIGH PROFESSORS BACK FROM EUROPE Willis Menard, of 2008 13th Street, Northwest, teacher of German at Dunbar High School, and Metz T. P. Lochard, who has been on the list of annual substitutes in the high schools here for the past year, have recently returned from France, where they spent two months this summer. Mr. Menard has been teaching German and history at Dunbar High School for a number of years and Mr. Lochard was on the faculty, at Howard University as a teacher of French for several years previous to his entering the school system. Mr. Lochard is a native Frenchman, having been born and reared in Marseilles, where his father and sister whom he visited while in France, are now living. He has been compiling material for a book, which he is now having published in France, concerning racial conditions in America. While abroad, he took a post graduate course at the University of Sorbonne. Mr. Menard reports conditions in France as being absolutely democratic as far as race relations are concerned. He claims that all reports concerning the "liberty, equality and fraternity" of France are true. The French people not only are not prejudiced against color, he says, but seem to delight in acquaintanceships with those of darker hue. "It is a common sight," says Mr. Menard. "To see a colored French officer walking along with a French girl on each side." He says that the "Follies Bergères," a noted musical show in France, features as its star, an American colored girl, Miss Josephine Baker, who played in the "Chocolate Dandies" here; and that there is a statue of Miss Baker in the foyer of the theater. "In contrast to the Frenchman's love of the American Negro, Mr. Menard says is his hatred of the American caucasian. This hatred seems to be due to the attitude of the American whites toward settlement of the French debt, his prejudices against his darker brothers, and the general arrogance of the American soldiers during the World War." He claims that the reports of the harsh treatment of American whites in France are true. However, many of the American proprietors dislike the duty of serving American Negroes in their establishments, they dare not refuse to do so under the French laws, he states. Mr. Menard feels that a trip to France would be worth the time and attention of every Negro—in order that he might see a real democracy. SUNDAY SPECIALS AT WHITE- LAW The public is responding nicely to the service and the fine meals being served at the Whitewater restaurant. All during the week the large and spacious dining rooms are comfortably filled with guests from Washington and from afar who have heard of the kind of meals being served at this well known and rapidly growing dining room and cafe. The food served is well cooked by a first class chef, served by polite waitresses, with the proprietors, Burke and Brown, always around to render whatever service they may be called on to give. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1926 RECONCILIATION HINTED AS PLEA IS WITHDRAWN A reconciliation will probably be effected between Frank H. Christopher and his wife, Mrs. Alice F. Christopher, who is suing him for a limited divorce. This was indicated last Friday morning when Attorney J. T. Settle, who is representing Mrs. Christopher, withdrew a motion for temporary alimony in the equity division of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia. Attorney Settle told the court that Mr. and Mrs. Christopher would likely settle their differences and resume marital relations. In her bill of complaint Mrs. Christopher charges her husband with cruelty and drunkenness. She says that on three different occasions she was forced to have him arrested for assaulting her. She alleges that he is an habitual drunkard. Mr. and Mrs. Christopher were married on October 19, 1899. They have had four children, three of whom are living. NATIONAL SOCIOLOGICAL CONGRESS TO MEET The National Sociological Congress will hold a conference on Racial Harmony at the Shiloh Baptist Institutional Church 9th and P Streets, Northwest, beginning Sunday afternoon, September 19, 1926 at 3:30 o'clock.

Steuart and Bros. 138 12th Street, N.E. --- Lincoln 1203 KIDNAPPED PRIEST BARES TERROSISM Norfolk, Va., September 9.—With Judge B. D. White, presiding jurist of Princess Anne County, declaring Monday he would call a special Grand Jury to investigate the kidnapping of the Rev. Father Vincent B. Warren, pastor of St. Joseph's Catholic Church, by a hooded mob near the County Court House, Wednesday night, September 1, same announcement that several unlawful acts committed before the attack on the priest also would be investigated. Father Warren said he had information that two colored persons were taken from their homes by mobs and badly beaten several days before the attack on him. "These men had committed no grievous offense and even if they had there were the courts to deal with them," said the priest. "Yet they were taken from their homes and flogged in some secluded place in the county. "A colored woman gave a party to her friends in her own home in the county, and while it was in progress a band of hooded men rode up to her door and broke up the festivities in confusion. They warned her she could not give any more parties. A reign of terror among the Negro residents of the county has been existing several months." Kluxers Kown Father Warren said he had received information that would lead to the identity of several members of the mob who attacked him. "The only trouble in making public these names would be the possible vengeance the organization of which they are members would wreck on the defenseless Negroes of the county," he said. "The Negroes of Princess Anne know many of the Ku Klux Klan members and they know several who composed the mob that attacked me. If they tell the names of these men they are certain to be subjected to rough treatment at the hands of hooded mobs. For that reason I am not going to make public at this time the information I have about some of the men who composed the mob." Father Warren preached to an immense congregation in his little church Sunday. The church, intended for colored families, was filled to overflowing by both races. The priest urged his congregation not to resort to violence in their zeal to revenge the men guilty of his kidnapping. NEGRO EDITORS VICTORIOUS IN CAL. PRIMARY (Países Coast News Bureau.) Los Angeles, Calif., Sept. 10.—Returns from California's state primary election reveal the fact that two race editors have been victorious. Fred C.

Other Colored Candidates Defeated. Titus Alexander, the only Negro democratic candidate, Attorney Broyles and Attorney Tyler, colored candidates for the Assembly, were defeated. Tyler and Broyles opposing each other in the 73rd Assembly District polled enough votes collectively to have defeated their white opponent by a margin of 191 votes.

MISS JACKSON WINS TWO YEAR FIGHT (Continued from page 1) In his report he stated that there were a total of seven vocational teachers in the Armstrong Technical High School without college degrees, a necessary requirement; but that there were only three persons who had taken examinations and were qualified for appointment. He said that it was almost impossible to get teachers of vocational subjects for high school work with college degrees and suggested to the board that it seek the enactment of legislation authorizing the appointment of vocational teachers in senior high schools without college degrees. Miss Jackson whose case was decided by the court, will be paid from the date of her eligibility, February 14, 1924. The other two teachers will have to sue and obtain judgment before they will be given back pay. Miss Jackson was represented by Attorneys Joseph A. Donovan and Charles C. Collins.

The former conferred degrees on more than 1000 students, 33 of whom received the Master of Arts, 519 lt of Bachelor of Arts, and 173 that of Bachelor of Science. There were 100 graduates in medicine, 72 in dentistry, 38 in pharmacy, 37 in law, and 47 in theology. In addition, the big northern universities conferred degrees on about 300 Negro students. Several received the degree of Ph.D., and a number were elected to membership in Phi Beta Kappa. The number of graduating classes last year was about three times as great as that of five years ago.

Byrd Jimmy White, the battling chauffeur from Philadelphia, gave a pretty account of himself in his last battle with "Kid" Woody of the Government Printing Office and earned the judge's decision to a draw much to the surprise of the 6,000 frantic fight fans who packed Heinie Miller's new Kemilworth arena to capacity. White and Woody fought in one of the preliminaries to the Goldie Ahearn-Al Forman bout which the latter won in one minute of fierce fighting by a clean knock-out. In the Woody-White fray, at the sound of the gong White was out of his corner like a flash and waded into Woody with both fists flying. Woody received uppercuts, rabbit punches and right crosses to the heart which staggered him and caused him to cover up in his corner until White's energy was spent. White then received a stiff left to the chin and hard right to the solar plexus neither of which stemmed the tide of his hattering ram attack. Likewise, Woody's punches to the head with his left and to the stomach with his heretofore deadly right were ineffective Evidently. White trained hard for THE SPORT REVIEW LOUIS R.

In that fracas, Woody K.O.'d White in round three. This last mix-up sent White down for the count of five and had him bleeding fro mthe nose and mouth. A check-up of damages showed that Woody suffered a split lip and an injured left hand. Since this is the only damage suffered by Woody this year we score a favorable one for White. Due to the fact that Woody's left is injured, we think that he should cancel all future engagements pending its complete recovery. UNION LEAGUE STANDING W L Pet.

HARRY WILLS TO DON FIGHTING TOGS If the present plans of Humbert Fugazy materialize, Harry Wills will don his trusty old fighting regalia and resume plying his trade at Ebbets Field, Columbus Day, October 12. Fugazy is contemplating showing the Brown Panther in action against a formidable opponent. Fugazy will pick Harry's opponent from among Jack Sharkey, Harry Persson, Knute Hansen and George Godfrey. Each of the quartet has already assured Fugazy that he is willing to tackle the Panther. The promoter will not make his selection until September 16.

Sam Lacey, who had just returned from a successful season at Water Hill, R.I., pitched masterly for the LeDroit Tigers until relieved by Lefty Smith in the eighth with the bases loaded. Lefty again proved himself one of the best relief pitchers produced on Washington sandlots when he worked out of this hole. The Black Sox defeated the Stonewalls in the nightcap, 4 to 2.

New athletic fields, additional coaches, hard schedules, and intersectional clashes indicate that the coming season will mark a new epoch in intercollegiate football in colored colleges. The only disturbing element is in the failure of Howard and Lincoln universities to adjust their differences with the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic Association, composed of Virginia Union, Shaw, Hampton, Virginia Seminary, Virginia Normal and Industrial School, St. Paul Institute, North Carolina Agricultural and Technical College, and Johnson C. Smith University. The new athletic field at Howard will be the scene of all Howard games in Washington, excepting the game with Lincoln University on Thanksgiving Day, which will be staged at the American League park. Howard will have two new assistant coaches. They are Raymond Dokes, captain of the 1924 squad, and Edgar Long, captain of the 1925 team. They will take the place of Charley West, former Washington and Jefferson star, who is a student in the medical school. Louis L. Watson remains as the head coach and director of physical education. At Morehouse College, Atlanta, Ga., B. T. Harvey will be assisted by Theodore Robinson, former Oberlin college star. Harvey will devote his time to developing the forward passing play and delayed passing system between the backs and ends, for which the Maroon and White teams are noted. Robinson, who played for four years at center and guard on the Oberlin team, will be given charge of the line. All of the teams have unusually hard schedules. The Howard schedule is perhaps the hardest a Blue and White team has ever faced. It includes games with Morehouse, West Virginia, Fisk, Wilberforce, Atlanta and Lincoln. Lincoln University likewise faces a hard schedule. Its tests will come in the games with Tuskegee Institute West Virginia, Wilberforce and Howard. This is in contrast to last season when Lincoln got away to a poor start on account of a weak schedule. The main intersectional clashes will be between the East and South and the West and East. Tuskegee, perhaps the best team of last year, will invade the East for the first time when they play Lincoln at Franklin Field in Philadelphia, Friday, October 29. After two years' lapse, Morehouse will come to Washington again and play Howard. This game will be on October 16. Wilberforce will play Lincoln in Philadelphia on October 29. West Virginia and Howard will play here on the same date. On the following Saturday Fisk comes for a game with Howard. The Blue and White team will go West and play at Wilberforce on November 6. They will invade the South and play Atlanta University in Atlanta, Ga., on the next Saturday. CHIROPRACTORS MEET The Washington City Chiropractors' Association will hold its next regular monthly meeting in the rooms of the Central Chiropractic College, Wednesday, September 15, at 8 p.m. Dr. H. U. Bell will speak on the subjects of glands. The meeting is open to the public. The president, Dr. C. A.

During the months of July and August, every available space in the dormitory is taken and many from our room registry were used. Among our guests were ladies from all parts of the country, traveling both by rail and motor. Such an infuix shews very vividly the necessity of added stories to our dormitory in which to give all women and girls who come to us perfect rest and comfort. Another need is a spacious dining room in which their appetites might be appeased. Let us hope that these additions will be made in the near future. Among the guests in the house were Mrs. Ella B. Sellers, Mrs. Mary Washington and Mrs. M, W. King of Los Angeles, Californie, who have had a very interesting trip through Panama and points in the East. Mrs. Hannah Smith of Boston agent several days here en route to Talladega College where she will resume her work. As vacation nears its plans, for the fall program are being made. Our slogan for the 1926-27 season is "A bigger and better Y.W.C.A., for the girls and women of Washington." THEATRICAL LOCAL TALENT MAKES HIT IN "BLUE MOON" Ivin C. Miller's' latest creation "Blue Moon" opened at the Howard Theater, Labor Day: A feature of the show was a predominance of local talent who gave a good account of themselves. While the book loses its continuity, an effort is made however to get away from the hodge podge that has IRVIN C. MILLER characterized many other productions. Donald Heywood wrote the musical numbers of which "Sunshine After Rain" is easily the best. The principal's of the show were headed by Alonzo McLane a comediene of no mean ability. The work of Henrietta Loveless was outstanding. Edna Barr also came for a good share of the credit for the female side. "Babe" Towsend who directed the production during rehearsal came up to the standard set by this popular actor. The chorus was made up entirely of Washington boys and girls. With the exception of one or two who have appeared on amateur nights at the various theaters, this was the first experience on the state of the entire group. Two former employees of the Heward are included in the male group, namely "Buster" Newman and Reginald York. The work of York was very creditable, who, with the proper instruction, should develop into a very good dancer. The other male members are Harvey James, Billy Chase, Davis Coleridge and Art Johnson, the last named is a former employee of the Dumbar Theater. The femenine side of the chorus is composed of Luchle sSmith, Louise Jeter, Mary Welch, Sarah Mabrey, Thelma Thomas, Mary Ellaby, and Sadie Williams. Prince and Princess Mysteria as an added attraction showed a wonderful exhibition of their art. Questions from the audience were answered with great ranslity much to the astonishment of those present. TWO HOWARD MEN AMONG FACULTY MEMBERS AT W. VA. INSTITUTE Institute, W.

"The Waltz Dream" is an UFA production. It was made from Oscar Strauss' famous operetta and is a greater picture than "The Merry Widow." "The Waltz Dream" is a story of Vienna at its maddest, a story of a prince and a cabaret girl. On his wedding night, he leaves his cold bride and madly woes the girl of the cabaret while gay Vienna whirled madly about them in the waltz that swayed the world. The seductive strains of the Viennese waltz ran through their veins like wine. Romance lives again in this glorious picture of Vienna. To miss "The Waltz Dream" is to miss one of the really great pictures. It is absolutely a sensation. Thursday, Friday, September 16, 17, Marceline Day and John Harron in "The Boy Friend."

Jackson, who for the past year has been on its Editorial Staff, is no longer connected with the paper in this capacity. GET READY FOR SCHOOL On Monday, September 20, the Public Schools will open. Twenty thousand children are expected to register the first week. To many students, this event will mean the breaking up of a pleasant vacation; to others, it will be a turning point in their lives, because thousands will say that they don't want to continue in school. The compulsory school attendance law makes attendance mandatory up to 16 years. Many children do not comply with this law, but neglect it with the full knowledge and consent of their parents. The children think they are beating the law, but, if they only knew that they were cheating themselves—that they are simply placing stumbling blocks in their own paths, the situation would not be so tragical. More and more the world is demanding that men and women equip themselves thoroughly if they would run the race of life successfully. Therefore, it behooves every student to obtain as much education as possible. Parents owe it to their children to give them the advantage of the present day schools. The falling off of student attendance from the eighth grade on up through high school is already too great. Especially is this condition true among the boys. The money a boy earns by leaving school at the eighth grade is simply deducted from his possible earnings during the manhood of his life. Therefore, let all parents prepare their children for school. Do not neglect this part of their lives and expect them to have successful careers Education today is a necessity. NOTABLE CAREER OF MAJOR BROOKS ENDED BY DEATH (Continued from page 1) cian. He consulted Dr. E. C. Terry, who diagnosed the case, and Major Brooks was sent to the Naval Hospital, where he was treated by Lieut. Commander K. C. Melhorn, who concurred in the diagnosis of Dr. Terry. During his last illness he was attended by Dr. Terry and Lieut. Commander Melhorn. He went to the Summer Camp at White Pine, N.Y., with the "President. His condition became worse, however, and he was forced to return home. He improved until about August 26, when he began to decline. Major Brooks was custodian of property at the White House during the terms of President William H. Taff, Woodrow Wilson, Warren G. Harding and Calvin Coolidge. He also served ten Secretaries of War as chief messenger. He formerly commanded the First Separate Battalion of the District of Columbia with the rank of major and upon his retirement he was raised to the grade of a lieutenant colonel. At President's Camp He served as instructor of military science in the high schools of divisions 10 to 13 in the District of Columbia for a period of thirty years. He was appointed instructor October 15, 1888, and continued in that position until November 30, 1918, when he was granted a leave of absence by the Board of Education to accompany the late President Woodrow Wilson to Europe. As property custodian at the executive mansion he was a bonded official and was responsible for all movable property there. In this capacity he came in intimate contact with the Presidents and was their adviser in matters of dress. Other employees, under his direction, took care of the President's wardrobe. Although his intimate association with the Presidents of the United States put him in possession of much confidential information, he never divulged to anyone what transpired behind the closed doors of the White House. Confidential Information "He regarded his relation with the Presidents," says his son-in-law, Prof. James C. Waters, secretary of the Howard University law school, "almost as a religion. He would never impart even the most trivial information concerning the occupant of the White House. After a President had left the executive mansion, he would occasionally tell some inconsequential story." Major Brooks went to the White House with President Taft from the War Department where he had been chief messenger to Mr. Taft when the latter was Secretary of War. He also accompanied Mr. Taft to the Philippine Islands. At the time of his death Major Brooks was 66 years old. He was born in Port Royal, Va., and came MAJOR ARTHUR BROOKS In the death, of Major Arthur Brooks, the race loses another of its contact men. As Custodian of Property at the White House, he came in closer personal touch with the various Presidents than even some members of the executive's family. He was a bonded official and held a position of trust and responsibility. He served four Presidents; William Howard Taft, Woodrow Wiltsen, Warren G. Harding and Calvin C. Coolidge. Possessed of a wonderful personality, he always conducted himself in such a befitting manner that he stendly won the confidence of his employers. He was trusted with many intimate and personal details concerning the affairs of the various Presidents he served. That he lived up to the trust they placed in him, is evidenced by the high esteem in which they held him. During the long illness of the late President Wilson, Major Brooks was one of the few persons permitted to see the stricken executive. He was called the father of the Cadet Corps of the colored schools. At one time commanded the First Separate Battalion of the local National Guard. It was this unit that President Wilson and his Secretary of War saw fit to place on guard at the White House and other important government buildings during the late World War. The good the presence in the White House a man of the high character of Major Brooks has accomplished for the race cannot be accurately estimated, but, there is no doubt that his influence has been far-reaching. Too often men who are placed in advance contact positions do not measure up to the standard, but in Major Brooks, the race had a representative of which it could feel proud. In the hearts of Negroes everywhere, Major Brooks will live as a man who was no afraid to tackle a job and then do that job well. Truly it may be said that he made his life useful by serving others. War Department, becoming chief messenger to the Secretary of War during the administration of George W. McCary and serving with succeeding Secretaries Alexander Ramsey, Robert T. Lincoln, William C. Endicott, Redfield Proctor, Stephen N. Elkins, Daniel S. Lamont, Russell A. Algar, Elihu Root and Mr. Taft. He is survived by his widow, Mrs. Lula Joy Brooks; a daughter, Mrs. Florence B. Waters; three brothers, John H. Edward and Thomas M. Brooks, and a grandson, Arthur Brooks, 2d. In advising the Board of Education of the death of Major Brooks, Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of schools, said "Lieutenant Colonel Arthur Brooks was the father of the High School Cadet Corps in Division 10-13. His service as military instructor was of the highest possible efficiency; the influence of his unusually fine personality was far reaching in the lives of the thousands of high school boys whose privilege it was to serve under him. No teacher in divisions 10-13 within a generation has made a larger contribution than Lieutenant Colonel Arthur Brooks to the character development of the colored youth of Washington." ```markdown ``` Neval Thomas, the fighting school teacher who heads the local N.A.A.C.P. organization, has been spending some few weeks in Canada. He writes a characteristic letter to the Tribune which we take pleasure in relaying to our readers. We believe that you, too, will enjoy his communication. The letter: The Editor of the Tribune: The Negro who wants to enjoy a pleasant vacation must leave the land of his birth and history. Here upon the mighty cliffs of ancient Quebec, one may move without restriction, through the palatial hotels, in the theatres and all other places of public accommodation. It is a notable instance in international relations, as well as a fine tribute to the beauty of the French spirit, that these noble people, living so near our country—so industrious in propagating color caste—have acquired none of her provincial thinking, unequalled lawlessness, and criminal prejudices. We are on a 3000-mile auto tour and in no place since leaving the Canadian border have we met anything but utmost courtesy even joyous welcome. The great province of Quebec is now in the midst of her parliamentary campaign, and on election day there will be no pollution of the ballot box, no shot-gun suppression of the electorate. On that day there will be no dishonest appeal by bone-dry prohibitionists who help lychee men; receive pay for their pretended sincerity, and who "charge up" well with liquor before their oratory can flow. There is far less drunkenness here in WET Canada than in DRY United States. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1926 MUSIC FORUM MUSIC FORUM By Wellington A. Adams RUDOLPH VALENTINO, DEAD SHEIK, PHILOSOPHIZES In "Story of Philosophy," Durant's fascinating novel, the writer speaks of Plato's eagerness to give every boy and girl equal education and equal opportunity, since "there is no telling where the light of talent or genius will break out." He believed in music as a most important study for the sake of rhythm and harmony. He revealed "a remarkable anticipation of psycho-analysis," and he saw that "there are some ailments which can be treated only through the mind; so the Chorybantic priest treated hysterical women with wild pipe-music which cited them to dance and dance 'till they fell to the ground exhausted, and went to sleep; when they awoke they were cured." Valent or genius is unseen. It is an intangible thing of nature. It is a festoon of innate culture suspended between the undeveloped and finished stages of attainment. None can fathom it. Nothing but time may reveal it. It is the telling point, the turning of a career, the undiscovered vision in the clouds beyond. Opportunities to develop this talent are multitudine in character. There are the schools, both public and private, and the out-of-doors and indoor concerts. There is the private music teacher and the standardized conservatory of music. The church choirs, glee clubs and choruses are by no means meager, in their ability to charm and entertain. Among the mechanical instruments, we find the wonderful Credenza Orthophonic Victrola, the Brunswick Panatrope, the Duo-Art pianola, all ready for artistic hearing. The radio, most wonderfully developed, brings to one's fireside, music of an artistic character that may not be heard otherwise. How many of us have heard, in person, such artists and organizations as Fritz Kreisler, Claudia Muzio, Dusolina Giannini, Sigrid Onegin, Gabriilowitzch, Marion Talley, Chalipain, Galli-Curci, Tito Schipa, Jeritza, John McCormack, Boston Symphony, New York Symphony, Philadelphia Symphony, Cincinnati Symphony, Detroit Symphony, and others? Then, we may realize the great blessing that the radio has bestowed upon the children of men. Hearing such sublime music as may be given over the air nowadays, certainly has a tendency to develop a sense of appreciation, of beauty in art, of cultured taste. Even some of the "jazz" orchestras are becoming things of refined syncopation because a bored public tires of "bosh" music. There is beauty in all things if one views through discriminating eyes, and we should learn to develop that sense of appreciation by contact with things of value and wholesomeness. Comes to our mind now, the philosophy of the late Rudolph Valentino, the dead "Sheik," in a recent publication on an entirely different topic than that of music. It is a beautiful lesson about a Latin and his developed sense of appreciation, as follows; "A push-cart peddler may stand at the end of a queue two blocks long, in the slush and snow, his feet soaking cold in the only pair of shoes he has, running the risk of an illness, to buy a dollar ticket which will enable him to stand through an opera. Ignorant, yes. Illiterate, yes. Impractical, yes. But if he is a true Latin he has to do it. He has the sense of appreciation of beauty so strongly developed that the desire for absolute beauty of sound, of movement, of color, becomes at times a craving stronger than he is. It is a way of escape from the cart, the gutter, and his sordid environment." "Three hours of forgetfulness, of liberty of soul, of bliss—what price is too great for these. Dreamers of dreams, and spinners in the sun." Thus, Valentino philosophizes with the true story of a Latin. It may well be applied to music—"Three hours of forgetfulness, of liberty of soul, of bliss—What price is too great for these," and music! RACE ARTISTS The Vesper Quartette, composed of race artists in Boston, Massachusetts, are winning fresh laurels at each appearance according to reports. Among them are Amy Bailey, soprano; Dorothy Richardson, contralto; Charles A. Henry, tenor; Joseph A. Benn, baritone, and Charles A. Henry, manager for the quartette. Their specimen programmes speak for themselves, containing works from such composers as, Coleridge-Taylor, Handel, Quilter, Meyerbeer, Zangwill, Lehmann, Macedow, Dovell, Scott, Camille Saint-Saens, Mendelssohn and American colored composers. The Boston Trio also ranks high in artistic programmes, composed of Ethel Hardy Smith, soprano, who is well and favorably known to Washington audiences and once scored a tremendous ovation at a Howard University noon assembly; Dorothy Richardson, contralto, who possesses a voice of genuine beauty" says the Boston Chronicle; Harry A. Delmore, tenor, whom the Boston Transcript describes as having "A smooth and transparently lovely tone"; and Ernest Hays, organist and director, a graduate of New England Conservatory of Music and organist of Hampton Institute since 1923. Washington should hear these splendid race artists. mob rule, burglary, and the other pleasant pastimes prevalent in our country, and not for snooping around colored people's automobiles and hip pockets. The great Dominion, especially the province and city of Quebec, has set us a fine example in government. (Signed) NEVAL H. THOMAS.

Under Suspicion One afternoon a stranger deharked from a train at a hustling town in the West and headed up the street. Finally he met a man who looked like a native. "Pardon me," said the stranger, "are you a resident of this town?" "Yes sir," was the rejoinder of the other. "I have been here something like fifty years. What can I do for you?" "I am looking for a criminal lawyer," responded the stranger. "Have you one here?" "Well," said the native, "We think we have, but can't prove it on him." —Washington Herald TICKETS HERE FOR YOU Here is a list of names of Tribun- ites who have failed to come for their tickets.
