LAST REMAINS OF MRS. S. H. DUDLEY LAID TO REST SLAYER VISITED HUSBAND JUST BEFORE CRIME SLAYER VISITED HUSBAND JUST BEFORE CRIME Death closed a vista of happiness for Sherman H. Dudley, nationally known theatrical magnate, business man and sportsman, and his wife, Mrs. Desdemona B. Dudley, when George S. Davis, 36 years old, 635 Fairmont Street, Northwest, shot Mrs. Dudley to death in apartment No. 6 of the Dudley Apartments, 1316 U. Street, Northwest, last Tuesday, and then attempted to kill himself. Mrs. Desdemona B. Dudley was buried with simple ceremonies Friday morning, at 10 oclock from the funeral parlors of Robert G. McGuire. Only the immediate, family and close friends were in attendance. The services were conducted by Rev. H. B. Taylor, pastor of the Fifteenth Street Presbyterian Church. Interment was in the family lot at Harmony Cemetery. Floral tributes were many and overran the funeral parlors. She was buried in a beautiful gray casket. The pall bearers were Attorney Benjamin L. Gaskins, Clifford T. Taylor, Gules McGarr, Joseph H. Maxwell, Lloyd Wycks, Bart Kenner and Frank Anderson. Beginning Life Anew After an estrangement of several months, the Dudleys had effected a reconciliation on Thursday, September 16, and were beginning married life anew. They planned to attend the opening of the fall racing season at Havre de Grace, Md., on Wednesday, and then as soon as Mr. Dudley had arranged his business affairs, they were going on a second honeymoon. The fatal shooting destroyed these plans. Mr. and Mrs. Dudley had just returned Monday evening from a trip to Atlantic City, N.J. They had stopped by Havre de Grace, Md., where they looked at a race horse, "Beautiful Flowers," that Mr. Dudley had recently purchased. Mrs. Dudley commented upon the beauty of the horse, Mr. Dudley says, and he promised to give it to her and let it race her colors which they were to select. In an exclusive interview Wednesday evening, Mr. Dudley said: "She came and asked my forgiveness, admitting her wrongs, and thought that we would be happier than ever after she had seen the error (Continued on page 2) LOCAL ATTORNEY DONATES BOOKS TO VA. SCHOOL LOCAL ATTORNEY DONATES BOOKS TO VA. SCHOOL When Piedmont Christian Institute, Martinsville, Va., opens this year, it will have two new and valuable additions to its library, the New International Encyclopedia in twenty-five volumes with a handsome case for the set of books, and a new Standard Dictionary. These books are the gifts of Attorney W. C. Martin of this city. Attorney Martin is a native of Henry County, Va., in which this school is located. He is a member of the bar of the District of Columbia. The Institute was founded in 1900 by Prof. James H. Thomas. At that time Martinsville had no school for the higher education of colored youth. Without any financial resources of his own, and no help other than the encouragement of a few scattered "Christians," or "Disciples of Christ." Professor Thomas founded the school at which colored youth in that section of the state could obtain a high school if not an academic education. Professor Thomas finally attracted and brought to his support, the white "Mission Board of the Church" and by the aid of this board and other friends, he has succeeded in establishing an institution of learning, the ground, buildings and general equipments of which are valued at nearly a hundred thousand dollars. This school of which Professor Thomas is principal, has a faculty of ten efficient teachers. Its curriculum is the same as that required in other high schools of the state, and beginning, this September a junior college course will be added. Professor Thomas is a B.A. of the State College, Petersburg, Va., Class '78, having graduated from that institution before the state legislature reduced its curriculum to cover only industrial education, the only kind which was, and is now, thought by many, especially in the South, the colored youths are fitted or capable of receiving. FIRST in Advertising and Circulation By Louis R. Lautier Read the advertisements in this paper,'they offer many good bargains. PUBLISHED WEEKLY 1 NEGROES IN FLA. STORM AREA SUFFER MUCH NEGROES IN FLA. STORM AREA SUFFER MUCH The hurricane that swept the lower portion of Florida last Saturday and Sunday, did unintended damage to property owned by Negroes in this section according to a Washington man who was in Miami; during the storm. He left the staten city last Monday and arrived in Washington Wednesday. According to his story, the loss of life among Negroes in Miami was not very great. Negro Undertaker Supplics Coffins A colored undertaker in Miami, Kelsey Pharr, who has a large establishment there, supplied most of the first coffins in that city. His five-story structure was not materially damaged. Mr. Pharr is well known here due to the fact that his child is sent here each year to attend a local school. He is a nephew of Mr. Harvey Kelsey of this city. Since the hurricane, some of the white dailies have been publishing stories of Negroes looting the dead. On a rumor, Hearst papers flashed a large headline Wednesday that two Negroes had been strung up and shot. As this section of Florida is one of the most prejudiced in the country, the desire to place the blame for such looting can-readily be seen. POLICE CAPTAIN ORDERS WHITES OUT OF CABARET POLICE CAPTAIN ORDERS WHITES OUT OF CABARET Captain Guy E. Burlingame has set himself up as the arbiter of race relations in the second precinct. Last Sunday morning he and about twenty prohibition men visited the Oriental Gardens, a night club, at Ninth and R-Streets, Northwest. Four white men and three white girls were in a party seated at a table. The captain and about one-half of his squad surrounded the table and ordered them to leave. Afterwards he ordered Lewis T. Thomas, the proprietor, to keep white persons out of the Oriental Gardens, advising him that as long as he would do this he would have no trouble, although there is no law in the District of Columbia making it an offense for persons of one race to frequent a place run chiefly for persons of the other do this he would have no trouble. Alrace he was emphatiate in his assertion. Captain Burlingame is supposed to be in charge of the second precinct police station. Washington Tribune WASHINGTON, D. C.

NEGROES MISTREATED IN STORM AREA NEGROES MISTREATED IN STORM AREA Negroes are being mistreated in the Miami, Florida, storm area, according to reports reaching Washington. An Atlantic Coast Line Dining Car chef reports that a member of his crew with a broken arm was refused hospital treatment until the hospital authorities were practically forced to give him medical aid. This man as taken to the hospital in a taxicab driven by a colored chauffeur. When he reached the hospital, the authorities wanted the taxi cab driver to remove the body of another Negro who, it is said, had been dead for more than twenty hours. These conditions, dining car employees and Pullman porters say, are typical of existing conditions in the Florida storm area. DUDLEY-KEY STABLE WINS Havre de Grace, Md., Sept. 23—Lally, a seven-year-old son of Maintenant-Sournoise, belonging to J. B. Key, proved best of the eleven horses to travel one and one-sixteenth miles in the third race here today. Jockey Workman kept within striking distance of Evelyn Sawyer, the pacemaker, for the first half mile, when he took command to roll home three lengths in advance of Alexander Moore. Trajanus ran to the show position. OFFICE: 920 U STREET, N.W. DUDLEY ration NG DEED REAL ESTATE MEN CHARGED IN SUIT, DENY FRAUD The charges of Jonh L. Eagles, a druggist, of 2000 E Street, Northwest, that he had been defrauded in several real estate transactions, were denied by Verling Harris in his answer to the legal action brought against him, Whitfield McKinlay, Charles H. Flagg and J. T. Settle. Mr. Eagles is seeking an accounting from Mr. McKinlay and Mr. Flagg for the sale of property at No. 213 Florida Avenue, Northwest, and the purchase and refinancing of property at No. 140 R Street, Northwest, and to have a deed of trust securing Mr. Harris cancelled. A temporary injunction restraining the sale of the property at No. 140 R Street, Northwest, at public auction was issued last Thursday. United State deputy marshals could not locate Mr. Flagg and Mr. Harris, however, and the property was sold to Mrs. Florence W. Wise for $600 subject to an indebtedness of $8,300. In accordance with the terms of the sale, she made a deposit of $200 with Mr. Flagg a and the auctioneer. Mr. Wise has intervened and is asking the court to order the trustees to execute a deed giving her title to the property. Mr. Flagg and Mr. Settle, the trustees, have refused to execute a deed until the court issues further orders. Mr. Eagles in his bill of complaints, filed "through attorney AHfred D. Smith, charges that on June 19, 1922, through Mr. McKinlay and Flagg, he sold No. 213 Florida Avenue, Northwest. He received from them, he says, only $1,700 of the amount paid for the property above the first and second trusts and the sum of approximately $2,500 is unaccounted for. He claims that he purchased No. 140 R Street, Northwest, through Mr. McKinlay and Mr. Flagg, for $7,500 and that he has never received a settlement statement from them. Mr. McKinlay and Mr. Flagg refinanced this property on March 1, 1926, he says, and the settlement sheet he received, he alleges, is fradulent. He claims that Mr. Flagg succeeded in having him sign a deed of trust securing Mr. Harris in the sum of $885, but that he received no consideration for it and that its execution was obtained by false representations. On September 8, 1926, he learned the facts concerning his financial transactions made through Mr. McKinlay and Mr. Flagg, he states. A second trust note of $3,500 secured by this property, he charges, was tainted with usury in that there was charged against it $98 as commissions and there was paid to Mr. Harris $651.35 without his knowledge or consent. GODFREY WINS IN PRELIM AT PHILADELPHIA GODFREY WINS IN PRELIM AT PHILADELPHIA Philadelphia, Pa., Sept. 23—In one of the preliminaries preceding the big battle in which Gene Tunney, ex-Marine, won the heavyweight championship of the world from Jackson Dempsey in a ten-round bout, George Godfrey, of Philadelphia, carried off the judges' decision over "Fighting Bob" Lawson, of Alabama, in a six-round match. Godfrey capitalized an advantage of nearly 43 pounds in weight. He towered over his opponent, but Lawson was game and gave his big rival a lively battle on the few occasions when they stood up to trade wallops. Otherwise, it was a wrestling and mauling exhibition. Godfrey weighed 223 and Lawson 180½. In the main bout, Gene Tunney won possibly every round save one. Dempsey looked more like a third rater than the champion he was when he entered the ring. Tunney has already declared that he will draw the color line. Bill of Complaint LAID T Breaks ED TO S MEMORIAL SERVICES HELD FOR REV. WM. J. HOWARD Memorial services were held last Monday evening at the Zion Baptist Church, F Street, between Third and Four-and-One-Half, Southwest, for the Rev. William J. Howard, who died December 30, 1925. Representatives of the church auxiliaries, the Stoddard Baptist Home, the Masons, the Odd Fellows and the Baptist Ministers' Union of the District of Columbia spoke. The principal address was delivered by the Rev. William L. Washington, who was installed as the pastor of Zion Baptist Church last Friday night. At the time of his death Reverend Howard was pastoring this church. SEEKS TO FORCE COST OF COURT ON CO-RESPONDENT The Supreme Court of the District of Columbia is asked to require Marguerite Davis, 2218 Eighth Street, Northwest, to pay all costs of a suit for an absolute divorce brought by Viola Hunter, of 2263 Eighth Street, Northwest, against her husband, John Hunter, whose address is the same as that of the co-respondent. In her bill of complaint filed through Attorney George A. Parker, Mrs. Hunter alleges that her husband and the co-respo dent committed adultery at 2218 Eighth Street, Northwest, on August 29, last, and on prior and subsequent occasions. She and her husband separated June 20, 1923, she says, and he took their only minor child, John Hunter, Jr., 9 years old, away from her and left him in Charleston, W. Va., where she cannot conveniently see him. Mr. and Mrs. Hunter were married in the District of Columbia on December 19, 1912, by the Rev. James E. Willis. Y. M. C. A. STARTS BIG BROTHER MOVEMENT A committee of one hundred has been organized by the Twelfth Street branch of the Young Men's Christian Association, of which Campbell C Johnson is executive secretary, to serve as 'big brothers to the 1,200 high school boys in the District of Columbia. This committee is headed by Charles H. Houston, chairman of the boys' work committee of the Y.M.C.A. It held its first meeting at the Twelfth Street branch last Friday evening and elected Mr. Houston, chairman; Frank Coleman, vice chairman; Louis R. Hehlinger, secretary, and Whitefield McKinlay, treasurer. According to Mr. Johnson, the four objectives of the committee will be a father and son meeting at the Metropolitan A.M.E. Church, Sunday October 31; a father and son banquet to be held at the Y.M.C.A., Friday November 5; an older boys' conference to be held during the spring, and a fathers' conference to be held in the spring also. President Mordecai W. Johnson of Howard University will address the father and son meeting on October 31. This will be his first public appearance in Washington since his election to the Howard University presidency. The committee of one hundred also elected an executive committee composed of the Rev. Charles E. Stewart, Captain P. L. Robinson, Lieut. Fred P. Watts, Ernest J. Davis, Dr. E. D. W. Williston, J. Percy Bond, George E. C. Hayes and Harold Jennifer. Garnet C. Wilkinson, first assistant superintendent of schools, was present and pledged the co-operation of the school authorities. Let our classified column rent that vacant room. Call Potomac 1667. TO REST Record OLOMON NECESSARY TO TRANSFER SAYS GRAND MASTER The unfinished Masonic building at Tenth and U Streets, Northwest, has been conveyed to S. J. Solomon, white, the records of the office of the Recorder of Deeds show. The deed transferring title in the property in fee simple to Mr. Solomon was recorded last Saturday after the deed of the court trustees, Alexander Wolf and William L. Houston, conveying the property to the Most Worshipful Acacia Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons of the District of Columbia, had been recorded. A deed of trust to the Second National Bank securing the court trustees the payment of the sum of $66,000, the deferred purchase money, was also recorded. It was given by the Most Worshipful Acacia Grand Lodge of Free and Accepted Masons. Both the deed of trust and the deed to Mr. Solomon were signed on behalf of the Grand Lodge by Charles P. Ford, Grand Master, and attested by Charles D. Freeman, Grand Secretary. Agreement Made According to Grand Master Ford, there is an agreement between Mr. Solomon and the Grand Lodge providing for the reconveyance of this property when the structure has been completed and certain conditions are complied with. This agreement was not recorded at the time the three deeds were recorded. The conveyance to Mr. Solomon was made for financial reasons, says Grand Master Ford. A loan in a sufficient amount to complete the structure could not be obtained with title in the Grand Lodge, he claims, and for that reason the proposition of Mr. Solomon was accepted. This agreement, he says, will be recorded at the proper time. Work on the unfinished building will be resumed this Friday afternoon. There have been some changes in the plans and specifications in order to make the completed structure yield the largest possible amount of revenue, Grand Master Ford says. The work is to be completed within fifteen months. This uncompleted Masonic building was sold at public auction April 12, last, by order of Justice William Hitz of the Supreme Court of the District of Columbia as the result of litigation brought by the Charles Datcher Lodge No. 15, Allan A. C. Griffith and Dr. Elias G. Evans against Jesse H. Mitchell, president: Frank D. McKinney, vice-president: Philip W. Thomas, recording secretary; William H. Cowan, treasurer; Archibald Runner, financial secretary; Paul R. Stewart, John S. George, Benjamin F. Arrington, Mary A. Parker, George L. Sydnor, Ernest M. Dickerson, Marie L. Johnson, Susie R. Quander, Henry Banks and George M. Ambler, trustees, of the New Masonic Hall Corporation. The Grand Lodge's bid, which was accepted, was the sum of $99,000. One-third of this amount was paid at the time of the settlement between the Grand Lodge and the court trustees. The balance of the purchase price is represented by two promissory notes secured by the deed of trust given to the Second National Bank. These notes are payable in one and two years, respectively. This property was originally purchased at public auction in April, 1919, at a cost of $39,650. The sum of $134,944 has been expended on the construction of the unfinished structure. Ground for the construction of the building was broken in June, 1922. On August, 1922, the cornerstone was laid. No work has been done on the building since December, 1923. The New Masonic Hall Corporation, incorporated April 19, 1919, undertook the construction of this building. The original capital stock was $50,000. In 1920 the capital stock was increased to $100,000.

She seemed to regret the past and wanted to start life anew. Just as I had decided to forgive her and start all over again, this terrible thing happened." Under the ordeal Mr. Dudley was bearing up well. No words of bitterness escaped his lips as he told of the events which led up to the tragedy. Davis Talks with Dudley Twenty minutes before the fatal shooting, Davis called at Dudley's offices at 1223 Seventh Street, Northwest, and demanded money of Mr. Dudley which he claimed he had spent on Mrs. Dudley while the Dudleys were separated. "I heard you were afraid I was going to do you some harm." Mr. Dudley said Davis greeted him. Mr. Dudley assured him that he was not afraid of him in any wise and told him that although he was an older man that Davis, he believed he could whip him physically and was certainly a better marksman. Davis then demanded to know what consideration Mr. Dudley was going to give him. Thinking that he had reference to his job as a policeman, Mr. Dudley says that he told him he would not interfere with him and his work. Davis told him he was not thinking about his job, Mr. Dudley said, but that he had spent all his money on Mrs. Dudley during the summer and was broke. Mr. Dudley told him, he says, he was not going to give him anything. Davis told Dudley that he had wrecked his life. "What about mine?" Dudley asked. After telling Mr. Dudley that he had not come for a quarrel, Davis left. This was about 10:30 o'clock Tuesday morning. The killing occurred 20 minutes later in the apartment occupied by Mr. Dudley since his separation from his wife. Forcibly Enters Apartment According to Frank Anderson, 1223 Seventh Street, Northwest, an employee of Mr. Dudley, and one of two eye-witnesses to the tragedy, Davis called at the Dudley apartment for a talk with Mrs. Dudley. Mrs. Dudley refused him admission. He left but returned later. An expressman, James Wright, 434 L Street, Northwest, was delivering Mrs. Dudley's trunk. Taking advantage of his admission, Davis is said to have entered the apartment forebly. When Mrs. Dudley was asked by the expressman where to put her trunk, Davis is said to have spoken up and declared, "You need not put it anywhere; she will have no further need for it." The expressman asked, "Why don't you sit down and talk over matters quietly." Davis is said to have admonished him to keep out of it or he would go along with Mrs. Dudley. "All I want to know." Davis is said to have asked, "are you through with me?" At first she made no answer. He repeated his question. She then answered in the affirmative. Davis drew his revolver and fired two shots, both taking effect. "Frank, he has shot me!" Mrs. Dudley crii 1 to Anderson, who attempted to go to her rescue. Davis pursued her into the bedroom, pulled Anderson aside and fired two more shots. Shoots Self Going into the hall, Davis reloaded his gun, a .38 caliber Smith and Wesson revolver, the property of the police department of the District of Columbia. He returned into the bedroom where Mrs. Dudley was lying on the floor. He drew up a chair close to her body, sat in it and shot himself in the right temple. When Captain Robert E. Doyle of No. 8-precinct police station arrived at the scene, he found Davis seated in the chair with his hands to his head. He admitted committing the crime and asked to be removed from the scene as quickly as possible. The coroner has not yet held an inquest. He is awaiting improvement in the condition of Davis before setting a date. A jury, however, was sworn in Wednesday. It viewed the body. Dr. Herbert E. Martyn, deputy coroner, performed an autopsy and determined that death was due to gunshot wound of the heart, hemorrhage and shock. Dr. J. Ramsey Nevitt, the coroner, issued a certificate of death and released the body. It was removed to the undertaking establishment of Dr. Robert Grayson McGuire, 1820 Ninth Street, Northwest. Will Recover Davis will probably recover, Freedman's Hospital officials say. His present condition is favorable. His right eye, however, was completely destroyed by the shot with which he attempted to end his life. The bullet entered his head near the right temple just above the right eye, piercing his head and making its exit on the other side of his head. No operation is necessary, hospital authorities state. Mrs. Desdemona Barnett Dudley was born in Rome, Ga. She has lived in the District of Columbia for the past eighteen years. She and Mr. Dudley were married on December 2, 1924. She was thirty-two years old. Davis was a bicycle policeman attached to No. 2 precinct police station. He had been named as the correspondent in a suit for an absolute divorce brought by Mr. Dudley in last May, Mr. Dudley had planned to withdraw this suit. MARYLAND SCHOOL BURNS Rockville, Md., September 22—Fire, of supposed incendian origin, destroyed the colored public school building at Norbeck early Monday morning, entailing a loss of about $1,600 partly covered by insurance. Members of the Rockville Volunteer Fire Department responded to the alarm, but were unable to check the flames. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE Vol. VI. No.18 NECESSARY TO TRANSFER SAYS GRAND MASTER NECESSARY TO TRANSFER SAYS GRAND MASTER (Continued from page 1) a loan to be made on the property was called on March 20, 1925, but was prevented by a temporary injunction when legal proceedings were begun for an accounting and a receivership. On May 18, 1925, Justice Hitz appointed a committee consisting of Alexander-Wolf, attorney for the plaintiffs; William L. Houston, attorney for the defendants; Charles P. Ford, Grand Master; Jesse H. Mitchell, president of the New Masonic Hall Corporation, and Herbert L. Davis, court auditor, to secure a loan sufficiently large to complete the building. Differences between the two opposing Masonic factions could not be reconciled. The committee was unable to obtain the loan. It made its report to the court on January 20, 1926, and was discharged. In its report it recommended that the property be sold. March 2, 1926, Justice Hitz ordered the property sold and appointed Attorneys Houston and Wolf, trustees to make the sale.

E. Church is making an intensive drive throughout the city for the purpose of raising funds for its community house located at the northeast corner of Washington and Gibbon streets. The movement has, it is announced, the endorsement of the chamber of commerce and already many business men of the city have responded with generous donations to the cause. The community house for the past few years has furnished splendid opportunity for church entertainments, recreation and concerts. The members of this congregation are making a desperate effort to meet the obligations incurred and save the building. Both white and colored are urged by the pastor, Rev. F. King, and chairman Moses Simms, to contribute to the cause. ROAMERS DANCE DRAWS NEARR the "journey dance" which is being given by the Roamer A. C. of this city at the Murray Palace Casino on October 8, seems to the the most talked of affair for the fall social season. To be absolutely frank, it will be the largest affair socially, to be offered to Alexandrians for this fall. The Casino in which it is to be held has only been open for a few weeks for the fall dances, and is even more beautiful this year than it was last, if such can be imagined. The various teams and clubs of Washington have been invited as guests of the Roamers for that occasion. Miss Florence B. Shelton, 520 So.

The entertainment is primarily a dancing show, and the chorus does a truly amazing amount of speedy stepping in the course of the performance. Not only do they work tirelessly, but there is great variety in their dances, some of the steps being quite complicated, and the dancing specialities by the principals also won merited approval. Irwin C. Miller has assembled a capable company, and production affords a suitable setting. MAMIE SMITH PLEASES Mamie Smith and her gang opened at the Howard Theatre this week. Mamie is rightly called the "Queen of Blues Singers." Her voice seems to improve with the years. Her very pleasing manner and ease of singing seems to cast a warmth of friendliness over the audiences that is captivating. There is only one Mamie Smith on the American stage today. The supporting cast, while not up to the standard of some of her other shows, gives the audience the best they have and it was generally appreciated. Her dancing demons came in for a large applause. The show this year is under the management of Bert Goldberg. Mr. Goldberg is one of the cleverest showmen in the game. His fair tactics have won him many friends wherever he has played. SUNSHINE SAMMY SIGNS ORPHEUM CONTRACT SUNSHINE SAMMY SIGNS ORPHEUM CONTRACT Hollywood, Calif., Sept. 23—Arriving home for a few weeks' rest following his latest appearance at the Inter-State Theatre, San Antonio, Texas, and the Iris Theatre, Houston, Joseph Morrison and his famous son "Sunshine Sammy" in a personal interview with a Pacific Coast News representative showed a telegram and contract from the E. Z. Keough Agency, Chicago, engaging "Sammy" for twenty weeks at $500 a week on the Orpheum Circuit to open the week of October 11 at the Chicago Orpheum. Several movie deals including the one with the DeVillard Company were turned down in accepting the Chicago offer. After a few days rest, Sammy and his partner, Harold Bacquett, accompanied by Mr. Morrison, will leave for Chicago. FAMOUS CHARACTER ACTORS IN "THE THIEF OF BAGDAD" APPEAR AGAIN Culver City, Cal., Sept. 23—Two princes of the flying carpet in Fairbanks' "A Thief of Bagad," Noble Johnson and Kamiyama Sojin, will appear together in the new biblical photoplay "King of Kings," now being produced by Cecil DeMille. Cojin, whose real name is Mita, is a Japanese, famous for his portraits of Orientalists characters seen in the "Sea Beast" "East of Suez," and other super-production. In "King of Kings" he is cast as a Persian prince, one of the many admirers of Mary Magdalene. Johnson will play a double role, one of which will be the driver of the Mary Magdalene charlot drawn by a team of wild zebras. Five zebras were especially imported for this scene from a circus in the Northwest. REPUBLIC THEATRE Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, September 26, 27, 28. Gene Stratton-Porter's great novel "Laddie" made into one of the finest photoplays of all time. John Bowers, David Torrence, Bess Flowers and little Gene Stratton are in the cast. "Laddie" is a story of mother love, like "Over the Hill" and "The Nest." All the mighty appeal of Gene Stratton-Porter at her best and greatest. It is a greater story than "The Keeper of the Bees," Gene Stratton-Porter's previous picture shown last season at the Republic. Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, September 29, 30, October 1, Cecil B. DeMille presents "Silence" with Vera Reynolds, H. B. Warner, Raymond Hatton and Rockcliffe Fellows. "Silence" is the story of a man about to be hung for a crime he did not commit—who alone knew the secret, yet dared not tell the truth. It is an extraordinary story of crooks, blackmailers, romance—and the burning love of a lawless father for the child he does not know, and for whom he is prepared to make the final sacrifice. Saturday, October 2, on the screen, Peter the Great, the dog star in "The Sign of the Claw." On the stage, talent at 7:30 and 9:30. Manager Sanford of the Republic announces that for six days, October 8 to 8, he is going to show to the public of Washington one of the big screen attractions of the year. The picture is "Mare Nostrum" and comes direct from a seven-months' run in New York at two dollar prices. It is a Rex Ingram production of a story by Vincento Blasco Ibanez. Alice Terry and Antonio Moreno head a cast of thousands.

LINCOLN TO SHOW THREE DRAMAS NEXT WEEK Sunday, Monday and Tuesday the Lincoln will offer for the approval of its patrons, that very successful and highly entertaining picture and highly entertaining picture "Fig Leaves," with George O'Brien and beautiful Olive Borden in the leading roles. The story deals with man's wife from the time of Adam and Eve up to date. It presents the question of whether woman can be happy without luxuries and "something to wear." Wednesday and Thursday, that sterling good actor, Milton Sills, will be seen in a story far different from any other in which he has appeared "Puppets." "If that knife falls—somebody dies" is the strangest oath man ever made—but it's just what makes "Puppets" one of the most powerful dramas you've ever seen. Friday and Saturday, that he-man, Jack Holt, stars in another Zane Grey story, "Forlorn River." Saturday only, the third episode of "Snowed In," with Allene Ray and Walter Miller in the leads. "THE PHANTOM EXPRESS" AT THE BROADWAY On Sunday and Monday the Broadway Theatre will present to its many patrons a spine tingling story teeming with action and breath-taking thrills—"The Phantom Express" with Ethel Shannon, David Butler, and little Frankie Darrow. You will enjoy the pluck of this wonderful boy who ran a hooodoo train through lurking danger to happiness. It will please the most exacting movie fan. On Tuesday, a mighty drama of wives and vampires, and of the husband who so soon forgets the wife who made him and to whom he owes all. Clarie Windsor and Conway Tearle in "Just a Woman." Wednesday and Thursday, Matt Moore and Dorothy Devore in "His Majesty Bunker Bean." Friday and Saturday Conrad Nagel and Renee Odoree appear in "The Exquisite Sinner."

Watson, Raymond Dokes and Edgar Long, are putting their charges through two hard daily drills. Work has begun in earnest. The first scrimmage was held Thursday preparatory to reducing the unwieldy squad. The work has largely consisted of setting-up exercises, hitting the dummy, bucking the board, punting, signal drills and instruction in the fundamentals of football. The backfield men have been given instructions in how to handle the ball and to shift. Louis Campbell and James Dillard, ends, have not reported but are expected to begin practice next week. Red Jefferson, tackle, is also expected to report. The old men, who are working out and showing improvement in their condition, include Biff Martin, center; Dan Brown, fullback; Edgar Ross, halfback; Jack Coles, quarterback; John Hall, guard; Harry Webb, guard; Benjamin Brown, guard; Dennis Simpson, end; James Tyson, fullback, and Captain Vernon Smith, tackle.

Smith is elected senator from Illinois at the coming election, he and his Southern constituency will seek to unseat him because of the amount of money used by his friends in the primary." The "Whip" proceeds to describe suffrage conditions as regards the Negro in Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia and South Carolina. Its thesis seems to be that so long as the Negro vote is suppressed in said states, the representatives from said states should not be heard to say anything about large expenditures of money at elections in Illinois. Then follows an appeal to the Illinois black voter to stand up for Colonel Smith and Mr. Insull, the latter, it appears, being Colonel Smith's "angel." Of course, Colonel Smith and Mr. Insull may be good men and worthy of the support of the black voters of Illinois. As to that, nothing is said at this time. It is remarkable that the "Whip" ascribes only negative qualities to Mr. Insull. "He has driven no black men from the polls, he has hurled no insults in our teeth, he has supported no lynchers and despoilers and he has not sought to inflame the nations of the world against us." That is about as good a string of negatives as could be assembled to persuade the members of an oppressed and proscribed race to vote for the candidate of traction magnates. Is Colonel Frank Smith as abundantly equipped with negatives as to the Negro as his "angel"? The "Whip" sayeth not. But to return to the matter of the suppression of the Negro in the South and the expenditure of large sums of money at elections in the North. It is true that the Southern spokesman come into court with dirty hands. It is none the less true that the Republican party knows it and permits it to be so'. To express it in another way, the Republican party has the power to keep from seats in either branch of Congress, persons securing certificates of election in the manner practiced in the South. It does not exercise that power. What is more, it has deliberately entered into an engagement and understanding with the South not to interfere in matters affecting the Negro's right to vote. In proof of this statement reference is made to the autobiography of Senator George Frisbie Hoar; to the Congressional Record of the year 1894, and especially to the speeches of Senators Hoar and Spooner therein on the repeal of the Fedcral election laws; to the failure of the Republican party to mention in any of its national platforms since 1892, the matter of a "free ballot and a fair count," that old cry that used to send the blood tingling and bubbling through the veins. In further proof of this statement attention is called to the fact that Senator Henry Cabot Lodge who in 1890 was the author of a bill intended to secure fair elections in the South, and which failed of passage, never thereafter mentioned the subject, although his uninterrupted service in Congress was one of the longest. So that while all that the esteemed "Whip" has to say about elections in the South is true, the Republican party is estopped to complain of it, because by silence, inaction and other consenting conduct it participates in the wrong. Does the esteemed "Whip" recall that, when the anti-lynching bill was pending in the Senate, and these same Senators from Mississippi and Alabama were filibustering against its consideration, not a single Republican senator offered a defense of the Negro whose character for chastity and regard for womanhood was assailed most bitterly by Southern senators. It is often said that Negroes in the North should not vote for Democratic candidates for the house and the senate, because however good and friendly they personally may be, they will be influenced by association with Southern democratic senators and representatives. The facts show that Republican senators and representatives from the North are equally susceptible to the same influences. As illustrations witness the failure of Republican presidents since Roosevelt, to appoint colored men to office in the South, save in the single case of Cohen in Louisiana (the motive for this appointment being too apparent to call for comment); the failure to appoint a colored man to Washington Tribune Published Weekly, at Washington, D.C., by THE WASHINGTON POST PUBLISHING COMPANY, INC. Hayti; the failure to appoint colored men to positions generally in the consulor and diplomatic service; the failure to appoint a colored man register of the treasury; the continuance in the most rigid and inflexible form of the practice of segregation in the civil service in Washington; the passage of the bathing beach bill providing for legal separation of the races without a roll call in either house, thus showing a common understanding in both parties that the policy of segregation is to be upheld and continued, and so on and so on, ad infinitum, ad nauseam. It is not intended to argue that Negroes should not vote the Republican ticket. What is intended to be set forth is that Negroes should know the truth, and the truth is that the manhood rights of Negroes is not an issue between the Republican and Democratic parties. Today both parties occupy identical positions on all questions relating to fundamental-manhood rights as they affect Negroes. If the Negro press has a mission, at all, it is to instruct and inform the race without fear, favor or partisan bias, as to the real facts in any case affecting the race's interests. It must be apparent to any clean thinking man that change of national administration from one party to another is of no concern to the Negro as such. He may like the way the Republicans administer government better than the way the Democrats administer it and for that reason vote the Republican ticket; but he can not as an intelligent man vote the Republican ticket any more on the ground that his life, liberty and property are safer under a Republican than under a Democratic administration. A LESSON OF THE HURRICANE There is nothing so impressive and awe inspiring as the destructive powers of the forces of nature. Wind, water and fire have energies of destruction that quite overwhelm the human mind. The hurricane which has swept the Florida southeast coast and passed northwesterly over the west coast, has been destructive in an unprecedented manner. The loss of life and property has been stupendous. The Associated Press in one of its accounts of the hurricane, gave the loss of property first, and then gave the loss of life, illustrating unconsciously the habit of thought of the American mind which puts the dollar above the man. The same account contained a paragraph as to looting in Miami saying that is occurred in the Negro section, thus illustrating how fixed has become the habit of utilizing every occurrence to spread anti-Negro proppinganda. If there is any lesson as affecting human relationship which the Florida disaster teaches it is that nature is impartial in its operations, making no distinctions as to race, sex, age or material circumstances. The hurricane did not temper its force to the white man; it did not magnify its force to the Neg.o; it was not gentle to women or children, or the aged and infirm. No principle of segregation or isolation can be discovered in any of its operations. This seems to be the spirit of good which resides at the heart of a thing evil. Why will not poor, imperfect, frail, stupid human beings learn this lesson, "Nature is just, and therefore plays no favorites and exercises no prejudices?" MISCEGENATION In the "South Atlantic Quarterly" for July 1926, a publication of Trinity College, now Duke University, Durham, N.C., there is an article contributed by Professor Kelly Miller of Howard University, in relation to the general subject of racial missegenation. The treatment is narrow, local and provincial, since it concerns only the blood mixtures of the white and black races in the United States. The article may for convenience be divided into two parts: the one consisting of a statement of certain general principles of abstract nature which might constitute the basis for harmless, academic discussion, and the second consisting of a collection, compilation or codification of the various views which from time to time during the past seventy years have been more or less current on the subject. The value of this second part of the article would have been greatly enhanced if the author had indicated in the footnotes, the sources of the information. There is really nothing new in the article either as to matter, or method a C style of treatment. Professor Miller has been wonderfully successful in his expli- THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE "IF BIGOTS HAD THEIR WAY WE SHOULD HAVE NO MUSIC RINGING IN OUR EARS" HEAV'N KNOWS, Rupert Hughes certainly can throw acid logic in one's face. We well know that the world can boast of its share of bigots but few there are who have the courage to tell them of their bigotry. Rupert Hughes can and did, and evidently he was not biting off his finger nails in idle idiosyncrasy in his preachment to mankind. We like Hughes, as do we G. Bernard Shaw of England, in that they are eternally preaching the gospel of common sense without fear or favor. He, Rupert Hughes, stirred up a hornet's nest not long since by accusing George Washington, the father of his country, of profanity, drunkenness and what not—and goodness how white American did how and rave but no avail as far as he was concerned, for he stuck to his guns. Now read after him again, this culling from a recent writing but don't bite your tongue off if it gets too hot: "When Mrs. XX visited this country, in 1827, she met a man who denounced all the masterpieces so violently that she asked him, "And Shakespeare?" he answered: "Shakespeare, Madam, is obsess, and thank God, we are sufficiently advanced to have found it out!" "That idea is still alive in 1926 and will be in 1927, and 2027, and on and on. But shall we believe these traducers of all genius? If they had their way, would the world indeed be better. Opera is similarly abused, . . . That means we should never have had the great opera houses, and the triumphs of Mozart, Beethoven, Gluck, Verdi, Wagner, and the glorious others. They would have been quenched in silence, their golden mouths choked with dust. Without opera, there would have been no oratorio. . . . Instrumental music would go the same way. In fact, all musical instruments except a few have been, and are still denounced by certain sects. In hundreds of cases musical instruments have been burned as heathen devices. "As a boy I remember seeing one morning in a churchyard the ashes and embers of a poor little melodeon. Some of the conscienceless modernists had insisted on installing it in the church and the truly good members had taken it out one dark night and lynched it, burned it as the stgke. "The war against musical instruments and concerts has pretty well died out now, but it was furious for centuries. If it had won the day, there would be no orchestras, no symphonies, no concerts, no sonatas, no recitals, no ballads at home, no comic songs, no catehy tunes to whistle, nothing but doleful hymns. "If the purists had had their way, the names of Haydn, Mozart, Beethoven, Schumann, Schubert, Chopin, Brahms, Strauss, Debussy, all would be unknown, and we should have no music ringing in our ears. . . ." "As for art, the zealots have always fought against its very existence. When they have been unable to destroy it, they have done their best to shackle it. . . . If the bigots had their way, they would set the fires burning tomorrow, . . . make bonfires of books and paintings, . . . and throw their creators in after them. Remember these things when next, you hear one of these enemies of beauty, of joy, of laughter and SONG and freedom heaping abuse upon all the works of art and science and happiness. Remember and picture what the world would be if they had their way." "DEN YOU ARE A PACK OF FOOLS?" DE PACHMANN De Pachmann is still publicly playing the piano. But he must be near the end the piano. He is almost 80 years of age. Time and time again he has taken "a farewell tour" in perfect good faith, always to be called back tumultuously by his passionately faithful adherents. He will play till the last bar hums in his brain. Age has apparently softened the veteran pianist's scorn of audiences. In the old days if he didn't like his listeners he refused to play. What is more, he hurled piano stools at them. He was full of tricks. "You like dis?" he would murmur treacherously to the crowd after a brilliant passage. "Yes!" the people would shout. "Den you are a pack of fools," he would reply winningly. "It was bad—on purpose!" Vladimir De Pachmann at 70 adopted a new method of piano playing. He is an ardent disciple of Chopin and Beethoven, loves them, plays them as can but few artists. He is really a great pianist, great personality, though greatly eccentric. He visited America last season and when in Chicago, was always cold. He thought Chicago the coldest place in the world. Said he, "I haf lived 74 years and I haf never been so cold."

Twilight in Pueblo land—before the flickering embers of a smoldering campfire sits a little Indian girl listening intently to the stories told by a grandmother squaw. It is bluebird time in the land of dreams. In sonorous tones that lull the little dusky maid to sleep, the tale unfolds scenes of sunshine, flowers, animals, birds and all living things. Ellen Miller Donaldson presents these stories of nature and Indian life as only one can who has lived in the Indian atmosphere and environment. Over forty illustrations by Hildegard Lupprian picture the story in artistic manner and the jacket, a tone poem in blue, completes a beautiful book.
