FREEDMEN'S NURSE ACCUSED OF NEGLIGENCE IN BABY'S DEATH Mrs. Glenn Made Committee of Husband's Estate FIRST in Advertising and Circulation CORONER'S JURY FINDS NEGLECT NOT CRIMINAL A coroner's jury Tuesday returned a verdict of "death due to burns and pneumonia" in the case of George C. and Carrie Newby, and ascribed the baby's death to the negligence of a Freedmen's Hospital nurse. The immediate cause of death was pneumonia contracted through exposure while suffering from the burns. Mr. and Mrs. Newby reside at 1427 W street, north-west. The child was born August 27, at Freedmen's Hospital. On September 4, while washing the baby, Florence Atkins, a night nurse laid it on a wash board while she turned aside to attend to another patient. She found, as a result of her carelessness, when she returned that the baby had rolled from the wash board into the basin into which a stream of hot water was trickling. The baby was severely scalded. Immediately following a report of the incident to the hospital officials, Miss Atkins was suspended. Takes Child Home Two days later, the mother took the child from Freedmen's Hospital and carried it to her home. This, Mrs. Newby admitted, was done against the advice of the hospital authorities. She was requested to sign a certificate removing all responsibility from the hospital and this she did on the same day, September 6, in the presence of Doctors C. O. Hilton and M. L. Wood and Acting Head Nurse G. L. Catchings. The certificate reads as follows: "This is to certify that I am taking my baby home against the will of the hospital authorities and I relieve the hospital from all responsibilities for the future welfare of my baby," (signed) Carrie Newby. Dr. R. B. Tyler, the physician attendant, upon the Newby family, was placed in charge of the infant on his arrival at home. The doc. (Continued on page 8) DR. A. A. RUSSELL MUST PAY WIFE ALIMONY DR. A. A. RUSSELL MUST PAY WIFE ALIMONY Dr. Aaron A. Russell, a dentist, 1217 S street, northwest, must pay his wife, Mrs. Eleanor E. Russell, 602 K street, northwest, $17 a week while her suit for a limited divorce is pending. Justice Wendell P. Stafford signed an order to that effect in equity court last Friday. Attorney Armond W. Scott, representing Mrs. Russell, told Justice Stafford that Dr. Russell had failed to keep an agreement to contribute $17 a week to the support of his wife. Justice Stafford signed the order providing for the first payment to be made that day. The motion for temporary alimony first came up before Chief Justice Walter I. McCoy on August 2. Dr. Russell advised the court that he was ready and willing to pay his wife $17 a week for her main 'enance, but as he had never failed to support her he did not feel he should be subjected to a court order. He made one payment on August 10. Wife a Catholic In his answer to the his wife for a limited divorce. Dr. Russell denies that he is taking advantage of the religious beliefs of his wife and the laws and customs of the Catholic church. Mrs. Russell is a Catholic and in her bill of complaint declared that her religion was the only reason she refrained from filing suit for an absolute divorce. Dr. Russell admits that he forfeited collateral in police court on a statutory charge. He says that he did not want to go through the embarrassment of going to court.

PUBLISH MEN'S NU Glenn NATIONAL BANKERS MEET IN DURHAM, N.C. DURHAM, N.C.-The National Bankers' Association met here September 15 and 16. About forty representatives of various banks throughout the country attended the annual meeting. The purpose of the Association is to throw a ring of protection around the Negro banks of the country whenever they face financial crises, and to open the way for loans and negotiations on stock of Negro corporations, by listing these stocks at their actual marketable value. This latter aim, when accomplished, is expected to go far toward solving the financial and financing problem of the Negro. The officers of the Association are Major R. R. Wright, Sr., president; Henry Allen Boyd, C. H. Douglass, and Walter H. Carter, vice-presidents; C. C. Spaulding, treasurer and Wilson Lovett, secretary. PROPOSED SALE OF JOHN WESLEY CHURCH FOUGHT Animosity and much heated discussion characterized the meeting Monday night, of the John Wesley African Methodist Episcopal Church when the members of the congregation were confronted with a proposal to sell the property and move elsewhere. Rev. H. T. Medford, pastor, and the Board of Trustees, and others were in favor of the sale, but the division of opinion among the members was such that the advocates considered it inadvisable to take a vote. Mr. Francis C. Johnson, chariman of the Board of Trustees, presented a letter dated June 25 from Attorney Ignatius J. Costigan, representing the Hibernia Realty Co, offering $175,000 for the premises. The cost of the church to its present holders was $60,000. The letter set out a number of advantages such a sale would provide, among them that the noise from the Fourteenth street traffic makes the present location of John Wesley very unfavorable for a church. He declared in the letter that his clients were desirous of transforming the building into one for business purposes and for that reason the conveyance of the building would not include the pews and windows. $5,350 Commission In addition to these advantages, those in favor of the sale, set forth a financial benefit. The sale price of $175,000 would, after deducting the $5,350 commission, provide a balance or $169,650. Out of this amount the present indebtedness of $55,500 could be paid, leaving a net residue of $134,150. This money, Attorney Costigan said, would be covered in a cash payment of $40,150 and in semi-annual install- REFUSED WIFE HER PERSONAL BELONGINGS Through Attorney Charles E. Robinson, Mrs. Johannah Lyon, 104 I street northwest, filed suit Tuesday for a limited divorce from James Lyon, 1135 Seventh street, northwest. She charges cruelty. Even though she is given to "spells," following which she, is unable to care for herself for several days, her husband forced her to go out and work and then took her earnings, Mrs. Lyon alleges in her bill of complaint. On August 11 her spouse assaulted her and made her leave their home, she charges. He would not permit her to get any of her personal effects or household furniture, she says. He is hodling an automobile and a piano, for which she helped to pay, she claims. Mr. Lyon is employed as a manager of the Gem barber shop, on Seventh street, northwest and receives a salary of $140 a month. His tips, Mrs. Lyon states, average $15 a week. They were married September 11, 1924. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1927 REGISTRATION IN SCHOOLS BREAKS PREVIOUSRECORD Enrollment records in the colored schools of the District of Columbia on opening day were smashed again this year, according to an announcement of First Assistant Superintendent Garnet C. Wilkinson. A total of 19,524 pupils enrolled last Monday as compared with a total of 19,066 on opening day last year. This is an increase of 458 pupils over last year. Miner Normal and Dunbar High schools showed a decrease in their opening enrolments. A total of 540 students entered the Miner Normal school on Monday. A year ago a total of 588 enrolled. In the Dunbar High school 1,534 students registered. A year ago 1,652 entered. The decrease in the Miner Normal school enrollment at the beginning of the school year is partly attributed to the inauguration of a three-year course instead of the two-year course. The students entering this year will be affected by the change. The decrease in the enrollment at the Dunbar High school is explained by the institution of ninth grade classes at the new Francis Junior high school. Dunbar Congested Dunbar is still congested. It was originally built to accommodate 1,200 students. This congestion will be relieved by a staggered-program. Many classes will meet as early as 8:15 in the morning. A double lunch period will be put into effect. One-half of the school will be at recess and the other half in recitations. It may be necessary also to add an hour for certain classes after the regular closing period. The teaching hours of teachers will not be affected. Their program will be staggered also. Permanent relief of this congestion, First Assistant Superinten- (Continued on page 2) DR. MORDECAI JOHNSON SPEAKS AT BANQUET The first annual banquet of the Federation of Men's Church Clubs of the District of Coumoua was held, Wednesday evening, September 21, at Israel Baptist Church, Eleventh street, northeast. The address of Dr. Mordecal W. Johnson, president of Howard University, was the feature of the evening. Dr. Johnson in his eloquent and impressive way stressed the necessity of laymen taking a more active participation in the affairs of the church. He stated that it should be unnecessary for the pastors to spend so much of their time in raising their salaries. He impressed upon the laymen the necessity of the churches making it possible for bright young men to enter schools of theology. Dr. Johnson said he favored smaller churches with all members active in the work. Garnet C. Wilkinson, assistant superintendent of schools, delivered an address on "Crime and the Negro." Other participants on the program were: William O. Walker, of the Washington Tribune, James A. Browne, E. B. Moxley, Ellsworth Honesty, Miss Janice A. Browne, Boynton C. Dodson, J. Richardson, Rev. G. O. Bullock, W. A. Dangerfield, Dr. C. C. Quivers, Rev. W. D. Battle and Rev. A. B. Fisher, pastor of Legal Church. The banquet was served by Joseph I. Greenneau. E. F. Harris was toastmaster, Memorial services were held for Edward W. Turner, ex-president of the Federation. The church clubs affiliated with the Federation are: Zion Baptist, Third Baptist, Union Wesley A. M. E. Zion, Galbraith A. M. E. Zion, John Wesley A. M. E. Zion, Mt. Carmel Baptist, Israel Baptist, Israel C. M. E. Church, Asbury M. E., Florida Avenue Baptist, Lincoln Congregational, People's Congregational, Providence Baptist, Metropolitan A. M. E. Zion and St. Paul's A. M. E. METROPOLITAN BAPTIST CHURCH HAVING DIFFICULTY GETTING PASTOR-ELECT TO ACCEPT THE POSITION WOMAN LOSES SUIT AGAINST COLORED BOYS ALEXANDRIA, VA., Sept. 19—A jury sitting in the Corporation Court of the City of Alexandria brought in a verdict of not guilty in the case of the Commonwealth of Virginia vs. George and Wilbert Tucker, ages 11 and 14, respectively. The charge was simple assault and using abusive language. The complainant was Mrs. Jernagin, a white woman, who alleged that she was assaulted by the two boys while a passenger on the Washington Virginia Railway, en route from Washington, D.C., to Alexandria, because of a difference arising over the rights to a seat. The boys claimed that they were seated in the seats usually occupied by colored people (these being jim-crow cars) when the white woman ordered one of them to move in order that she could sit down. The boy refused, an argument ensued, and the woman, after striking one of the boys on the head with her elbow, seated herself in another section of the car. On reaching Alexandria, the woman caused their arrest to be made by a fireman. At the police court trial on June 27, the older boy was fined $50 and cost, and the younger boy $5 and costs. Their attorney, Lawyer Thomas M. Watson, of the law firm of Tucker and Watson, appealed the case. On the appeal September 8, Lawyer Watson showed that not only was the woman the aggressor, but that no abusive language was used, nor any assault made. He also questioned the jurisdiction of the court, in view of the fact that the alleged assault happened in Washington, D.C. The jury was out only fifteen minutes. CLUB TO INVESTIGATE POLITICAL SITUATION A meeting of the Federation of Repub'ican Colored Women's Political Clubs of the District of Columbia was held last night at its headquarters, 1109 I street, northwest. The articles of incorporation were read and adopted. Several items of interest pertaining to the community were presented and plans for the amelioration of the same was thoroughly discussed by the members present. A program for study during the year was outlined. Attorney Ollie Cooper was appointed parliamentarian. Francis Wells talked on the political situation in the District. WIFE CHARGES HUSBAND DESERTED HER Charging desertion, Mrs. Margaret B. Johnson, 1443 P street, northwest, filed suit in the District Supreme Court last Monday for a limited divorce from Winslow Johnson, 1708 Fifteenth street, northwest. In her bill of complaint, filed through Attorney John H. Wilson, Mrs. Johnson charges that because of the failure of her husband to pay the rent for premises No. 1920 Eighth street, northwest, they were set out of doors on April 17 last. She sought the aid of friends, she says, and afterwards her husband refused to live with her. She alleges that he assaulted her on different occasions in the months of August and September. Mr. Johnson is a bricklayer and earns $8 a day, his wife says. She asks the court to award her alimony. The newly elected pastor of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, Rev. E. L. Harrison, of Houston, Tex., may not accept the pulpit made vacant by the death of Rev. M. W. D. Norman on December 26, of last year. He was elected at a meeting of the members and officials of The controversy in acceptance The controversy in acceptance the church on August 9 lies in the terms offered Rev. Harrison by the Metropolitan Church. It is understood that at present, as pastor of the Antioch Baptist Church, of Houston, he is receiving a salary of $300 a month and an equipped parsonage and unkeep. Metropolitan offers him $300 per month, without parsonage. Rev. Harrison declares he could not readily accept a position which does not better his present one. He points out that to obtain a home equal to the parsonage in Houston, he would have to expend about $125 per month for rent. He also stated that the cost of living is considerably higher in Washington than in Houston. Unless the salary is raised, it is understood that he will reject the proffered position. The church members and officials will hold a meeting Friday, September 23, to determine upon a course of action. It cannot be predicted, however, just what action will be taken. Either because of the popularity of the pastor-elect, or out of curiosity, Metropolitan Church turned away about five hundred persons who were clamoring to get into the already over-crowded auditorium Sunday to hear Rev. Harrison speak for the first time since the pulpit had been offered him. At the Sunday evening service, he informed the congregation of the impossibility of him accepting the proposition as first offered. The church is divided over the question of offering more money to the pastor-elect. It seems that the deacon board strenuously objects to raising the figures offered. The church members, however, are understood to be more favorable to such an action. As the action of the meeting must be sent to Rev. Harrison in Houston, it will be some time before it is known as to whether he will accept. The pulpit has already been vacant for nearly a year, during which time nearly a hundred applicants have preached. TRAVELERS' AID WILL CAMPAIGN AMONG NEGROES TRAVELERS' AID WILL CAMPAIGN AMONG NEGROES The Travelers' Aid Society of Washington, in its campaign funds this year, which will be launched next month, is going to appeal for the first time to the colored people. Never before has the society made any direct appeal to them. In its work, the society makes no distinctions, whatsoever in race, religion, or creed. It serves white Washington, in its campaign for funds, which will be launched proficiency, and whole-heartedness. In most of the larger cities, the Society maintains a colored worker at the stations. Within the past few months, a colored volunteer worker has been added to the roster of the Washington branch of the society. The Society contemplates placing a regular worker at the Union Station in the near future. For these reasons, the society feels that it is justified in making a direct appeal to the colored people of Washington for funds to enable the work to continue on the same high plane it has always maintained. The country over, the Travelers' Aid Society is considered one of the most worthy organizations of public support. Just how the campaign among the colored people will be handled has not as yet been determined. OFFICE: 920 U STREET, N.W.

It was purchased by Dr. Philip Jones, Herbert Harris and Dr. E. L. Jones. The price was $1850. Dr. Philip Jones was formerly an employee of the late Doctor John L. Morse. He was working there at the time of its sale at auction. Mr. Harris is a private garage owner and operator at 2112 Massachusetts avenue, and Dr. E. L. Jones is a registered pharmacist doing relief duty in several stores. The store will be opened under the new management on or about October 1. MRS. SAVOY IS INDICTED FOR PERJURY Mrs. Valerie Turner-Savoy, divorced wife of Dr. Walter Stanford Savoy, was indicted Monday, September 19, at the opening session of the Fairfax County, Va., grand jury on a charge of perjury. This action was an outgrowth of the divorce obtained in Arlington County, Va., by Mrs. Turner-Savoy last January. It is alleged that Mrs. Savoy swore to having lived in Virginia for a period of a year and that she had been separated from Dr. Savoy for three years. It is pointed out by Dr. Savoy, who charged her with the perjury, that she never lived in Virginia at all, and that they had been separated only a few months. The exact date of the trial has not been set, though it is expected to come up next week. Mrs. Savoy is one of the Turner twins. She was married to Dr. Savoy in Elkton. Md., on March 19. 1922. Last May, following the divorce granted her, Dr. Savoy had his former wife arrested and placed on $300 bond for threatening him. AMPHIONS OPENING THIRTY-SIXTH SEASON Seldom in the history of the Amphion Glee Club has a more enthusiastic meeting been held than that of last Monday evening at Cleveland Building, the occasion being the opening of the thirty-sixth season. J. Henry Lewis is director and manager. The acquisition of a suitable home was agreed to be of prime importance, and preliminary steps were taken to meet that demand. It was decided to prepare special programs for appearances at the Lincoln Theatre, and a joint event with the Y.W.C.A. before the Christmas holidays. Radio recitals will be frequent this season, and octets, quintets and quartets will be specially trained for that purpose. Several acquisitions are to be made to strengthen the staff of singers, and applications were received and referred for action at the next weekly meeting which will be held Monday evening, September 26 at Cleveland Building. STREET, N.W. N BABY'S band's FATHER SAYS BOY'S DEATH WAS NOT SUICIDE Randolph H. Massey, father of Randolph A. Massey, young Dunbar student who was shot through the breast while at his father's farm near Wellington, Va., denies that his son's act was suicide. A coroner's jury returned a verdict of accidental death. Mr. Massey says that while his boy acted strangely at times, he is sure that none of the facts pointed to suicide. MISS BROWN TO HEAD DUNBAR HI. BUSINESS DEPT. The Board of Education at its meeting at Franklin School building last Wednesday afternoon approved the recommendation of First Assistant Superintendent Garnet C. Wilkinson for the appointment of Miss Lydia Brown as acting head of the department of business practice at the Dunbar High School. The appointment was made with the understanding that at the end of the school year Miss Brown will be returned to her teaching position. Mr. Wilkinson preferred a temporary appointment for this year. The kind of man he wanted to head the department could not be obtained for the salary which the position pays. The school officials plan to establish a separate business high school next September in the Shaw Junior High School building. The Shaw Junior High School will be transferred to the old McKinley High School at Seventh street and Rhode Island avenue, northwest, when that building is turned over to the colored schools. To Select Principal It will be necessary to select a principal for the proposed business high school next September. A trained, experienced and capable man will be chosen. Mr. Wilkinson says. Miss Brown is a graduate of Simmons College. She has traveled and studied abroad. She is an expert in stenography. Mrs. William C. McNeill voted against the appointment. She stated that there were available qualified people who could be appointed permanently. Rev. F. I.A. Bennett asked that he be recorded as not voting. The recommendation for the appointment of Miss Brown had the approval of the personnel committee, of which Dr. J. Hayden Johnson is the chairman. Bids Rejected Superintendent Frank W. Ballon reported that the District Commissioners had rejected all bids for the construction of the Garnet-Patterson Junior High School. All bids submitted were over $500,000. An appropriation of $465,000 is available. The commissioners were uncerain whether they had authority to build a portion of the building without sufficient funds to complete it. They have agreed to reconsider their action, Superintendent Ballon stated. He expressed the belief that some way will be found to proceed with the construction of as much of the building as is possible out of the available appropriation. Congress will be asked for additional funds. The following temporary appointments of teachers, class 2A, Francis Junior High School, were made: O. W. Tinner, sheet metal work; J. F. Green, printing; B. F. Sewell, clerical practice; C. S. Burke, applied electricity, and C. H. Baltimore, mechanical drawing. MRS. KING MADE STATE DIRECTRESS OF YOUNG PEOPLE'S WORK Mrs. Bertha B. King, directress of the Girls Club of the Metropolitan Baptist Church, and a delegate to the National Baptist Convention which convened last week at Detroit, Mich., was elected by the convention as the State Directress of all of the Young People's work in the District of Columbia.

Stafford last Friday appointed Mrs. Laura Glenn a committee to handle the estate of her husband, Amplias H. Glenn. Bond was fixed at $300. Mr. Glenn was adjudged to be of unsound mind by a jury in circuit court on August 19 and committed to St. Elizabeth's Hospital for the insane. He was first sent for mental observation July 16. Mr. Glenn is the reired head of the department of languages of the local colored high schools. He is a graduate of Oberlin College. He lived at 941 S street, north-west. PHILIP JACKSON IS GRANTED STAY OF EXECUTION A stay of execution until January 17 was granted to Philip Jackson last Friday to permit his attorney, John H. Wilson, to file the record of the trial in the Court of Appeals. Jackson was sentenced to die on Armistice Day. The fixing of that date was inadvertently done by Justice A. A. Hoehling, who granted the condemned man a 90-day stay in order that Attorney Wilson might carry the case to the appellate court. Jackson is under death sentence for criminally assaulting a woman in the Capitol grounds on the night of February 18. Justice Hoehling denied a plea for a lunacy inquisition, and Attorney Wilson noted an appeal. Is War Veteran The condemned man is a world war veteran. While he was awaiting electrocution, he made Rev. Roberts, the District jail spiritual adviser, his beneficiary. Following the last stay of execution, Attorney Wilson induced him to make his mother, Maud Fleet, his beneficiary. Under a ruling of the Veterans Bureau the $900 under the policy will be paid to her. His policy, it was explained, is for adjusted compensation. If it was world war veterans' insurance, it would not be collectible because the law provides that veterans' insurance cannot be paid on a man executed for a criminal offense. KELLY MILLER TO SPEAK AT LOCAL Y.M.C.A. KELLY MILLER TO SPEAK AT LOCAL Y.M.C.A. Professor Kelly Miller, of Howard University, will be the first Sunday afternoon speaker at the men's meetings of the Twelfth St. Branch Y. M. C. A. which will start again Sunday, October 2, at 4 p.m. Owing to a popular demand for the men's meeting which several years ago packed the gymnasium of the "Y" Sunday after Sunday, the cabinet of the association decided recently to begin these meetings again. Speakers of local and national importance have been booked to address these meetings on timely subjects and good music will always be the order of the day. John Williams of Dunbar High School, heads the department of meetings and Captain Eugene Davidson is chairman of the cabinet. NEW YORK EDITOR AND WIFE VISIT HERE Romeo L. Daugherty, sports editor on The New York Amsterdam News, joined his wife here this week. Mrs. Daugherty who is a former Washingtonian, is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Gant of U street, northwest. TEN Liberal Progressive Independent According to the latest announcement from the White House, Congress will not be called in special session. The seventieth Congress will not meet, accordingly, until the time appointed by law, the first Monday in December, which is December 5, or a few days more than two months hence. It is probably just as well, since the matter of a special session was delayed so long. The colored people of the District who are property owners (and their number is greater now than at any previous period), should, along with all other property owners, manifest lively and understanding interest in the question of local taxation. The burden of taxation is growing here from year to year, and as the population is increasing the expense of local government increases in proportion. This increase is due to the growth in the activities of the national government, and to the fact that national civic, and commercial organizations are establishing headquarters here, in connection with which there is a large personnel of employees who maintain residences here. Our people must wake up, and do their bit in impressing this matter on the attention of Congress at the approaching session. COMBINATION IN BUSINESS The question has recently been put forward as to the necessity and desirability of Negro business men combining for certain forms and kinds of business. The question is timely, and in complete harmony with the course and direction business is taking. Already there are many lines of business that can be carried on only in combination, and the number of these lines is increasing from year to year. There was a time when any one with a small amount of capital, some experience and considerable industry could set up in the grocery business in a small way with every prospect of success, and in the course of time of earning a competence. The chain stores in the large cities, and even in territory contiguous to them, have practically extinguished the small grocer, and we see the number of persons owning small concerns of this kind growing fewer and fewer, and as they go out of business for themselves, they became employees of the chain stores. The same thing is true as to tobacco in all forms, as to drugs and as to other lines of business that might be mentioned. In the matter of banking, the Federal Reserve System and the McFadden banking bill enacted into law at the last session of the sixty-ninth Congress, require the largest sort of combinations in order to carry on the banking business. The banking business may even, under existing laws, be carried on with relatively small capital, but the day of the private banker is practically at an end. Combination here is the order of the day. These facts serve to enforce the principle which we have been trying to bring home to our readers in our effort to promote business development among our people. We have got to have leadership in business as in other lines of human endeavor. That leadership must be informed, efficient, and honest. Given these three qualities, our people should join enter- Washington Tribune Published Weekly at Washington, D.C., by THE WASHINGTON TRIUNGE PUBLISHING COMPANY. $20 U Street, N.W., Phone, Polkamus 1687 Entered as second class matter, July 7, 1922, at the Post Office at Washington, D.C., under the Act of March 3, 1879 Subscription Rate: One Year, $2.50; Six Months, $1.25.

LAZARUS PRAISES DIVES The statement of the case of President Coolidge and the Negro, contained in the interview with Ben Davis, Republican National Committee from Georgia, and which appeared in last week's papers, is just about what might reasonably have been expected from that source. It was in form and substance like statements which, at calculated intervals, have come from similar sources and with a like purpose, during more than forty years. So far as we can recall, all Southern Republican organization men have, at all times, favored the continuance in office of the existing Republican administration, or the selection for the presidency of the candidate favored by the existing administration. In this matter Mr. Davis follows precedent to the letter. In other parts of the statement Mr. Davis took the position of defense of and apology for the attitude, or lack of attitude of the Coolidge administration to the known discriminatory conditions under which Negroes live, and to the continued and notorious denial of their inaffienable and constitutional rights. He states that the President "has been fair to our group and has done as much for us under the conditions and circumstances as any other President would have done." Then he proceeds to say that "the Negro does not demand official place now as formerly," and that because most worth-while Negroes are able to "provide for themselves better than the Government would provide for them," the President has had less opportunity to appoint colored men to office. Here we have an attempted explanation of the failure of the President to appoint a colored man as minister to Hayti, and another colored man as register of the Treasury, but there is no attempted explanation of the continued segregation of colored employees in the Federal service. Every one knows, including Mr. Davis, that his attempted explanations do not explain. We are satisfied, however, with the rating of "fair" which he gives the President in his treatment of our group. That is as high a mark as the President could reasonably expect in a scale of "bad," "fair," "good" and "excellent." It should be remembered that beginning with President Grant, there has been no President, either Democratic, or Republican, who has not made appointments of Negroes to office. Under Democratic administrations, Negroes have been appointed minister to Hayti, minister to Liberia recorder of deeds and municipal judge in the District of Columbia. So that nothing of partisan advantage can be claimed on the score of appointments to office. The outstanding fact is that under Republican administrations the number of presidential appointments has since McKinley's administration been diminishing, while under Democratic administrations they have remained stationery. As to "conditions and circumstances" to which Mr. Davis makes reference we confess ignorance. But any statement as to them is unworthy of consideration unless it comes from the President himself, or some member of his cabinet, or some spokesman duly authorized to speak for him or them. We put it this way because Republican Negro political workers told the people in the campaigns of 1920 and 1924, that on the advent of a Republican administration segregation in the Federal service would cease. We know now that they spoke without authority. HAVE YOU THOUGHT? Have you ever thought how much more appropriate it would be to publish your cards of thanks, notices, and memoriams in papers that "your" friends and acquaintances read? MUSIC FORUM By Wellington Adams ARMY MUSIC GRADUATE TO TEACH AT COLUMBIA CONSERVATORY The Columbia Conservatory of Music, 1000 Euclid street, northwest, announces the addition to its faculty of another competent musician in the person of John J. Brice, Reserved Officers Training Corps band leader, Howard University. Mr. Brice is a graduate of the Army Music School and was recently stationed at Howard as band leader. He will teach clarinet, flute, saxophone, oboe, bassoon, piccolo, cornet, trombone, baritone, basses. R. O. T. C. Band Leader, Howard University. drums, instrumentation, arranging and conducting. These subjects gives the Columbia Conservatory of Music a standard curriculum in musical instruction that will command attention. Violin instruction is under the direction of another graduate violinist and successful students are entered in orchestral work. Other subjects taught include pianoforte, vocal culture, solfeggio, ear training, theory, harmony, music history, banjo, tenor-banjo, guitar, mandolin and ukulele. Registration for the brass and wind instruments will be on Monday, October 3, from 3 to 9 p.m. Other departmental instruction began on opening of the school term September 15 and students may register any date thereafter. Certificate or diploma is awarded upon a satisfactory completion of a course. SCHOOL DAYS VS. MUSIC DAYS School days are upon us but the term generally implies day school attendance. It should also apply to music schools since the study of music is more and more becoming a fundamental requisite in educational life. We don't want to think of school as a matter of the three R's, so called, but nowadays education does not stop at that. It is a growing concern, a broadening process, a melting pot of cultural attainment. Having academic or scientific education without the refinishing influence of the arts is like training a horse to pull a cart with only one trace. We must have music, plenty of it, in our educational life and there should be more impetus given and greater stress placed upon it in the college, university and public school system as well as that among local sources. The time is not far distant when it will be required of every teacher applicant to have a fundamental thorough knowledge of their particular acquired course of training. We want our public school system to produce better results in the future and give occasional public musical programs by the student body including, singing, instrumental, band and kindergarten that our parent body may vision such progress as may be possible from time to time. There should be a big annual festival of music by our public schools and there is no good reason why it should not or cannot be done. We have here one of the best school systems in the country and it should be an outstanding example to other educational systems. Having music in the schools does not mean that we should neglect such training in the home by and through local agencies. Local instruction has its advantages because of the opportunity for individual corrective measures while in class work many times the less keen observing student is the least gainer over the student of a more active mental faculty and loses out in the final analysis. Not long since Police Commissioner Rutledge at the third annual convention of the Michigan Music Merchants Association, said: "It used to be a social error for a child not to learn to play the piano. Nowadays the time that was formerly spent in practicing is passed in the pool rooms, the unsupervised dance halls and in auto riding. Learning music in the home will not only keen the child in closer relationship with its parents, but it will help develop the cultural side of its life." Pointing out that the criminal of today is the delinquent youth of yesterday, the commissioner deplored the lack of cultural influence of music among modern children. Thus the commissioner prescribes music as a cure for crime and there is some logic in his assertion we presume.

A. which will start again Sunday, October 2, at 4 p.m. Owing to a popular demand for the men's meeting which several years ago packed the gymnasium of the "Y" Sunday after Sunday, the cabinet of the association decided recently to begin these meetings again. Speakers of local and national importance have been booked to address these meetings on timely subjects and good music will always be the order of the day.

Brown Woman, experience might have told me. That all must love thee who behold thee. Surely experience might have taught Thy firmest promises are as naught: But planned in all thy charms before me, All I forget, but to adore thee. O memory! Thou choicest blessing When joined with hope, when still possessing: But how much cursed by every lover When hope is fled and passion's over. Woman—that fond and fair deceiver, How prompt are stripplings to believe her: How throbs the pulse when first we cry we view The eye that rolls in glassy blue, Or sparkles 'black or mildly brown. How quick we credit every oath And hear her plight the willing troth; Fondly we hope 'twill last for aye When lo—she changes in a day. Woman, thy vows are traced in sand. 1724 Montello ave. fraid to send your child to a good music school or local teacher. It does not hinder progress in the day school as many seem to think.

Wallace "May I go?" pleaded Clarice as her mother came out of the house all dressed for a walk. "I'll be just as good as anything, an' I'll not bower a single little bit." Mrs. Adams smiled lovingly at her small daughter. "Indeed, I know you wouldn't bother," she smiled, "and I should like to take you along, but it is not possible today, besides I want you to do something for me. Nora is busy in the kitchen and so I cannot trouble her, but you are playing here on the lawn, and I wish you would watch for Mr. Jenks, the postman, and give him this letter, and ask him to take care of it for me as soon as he can, for it is very important." "But, Mummy," pouted Clarice, "if I can't go with you, I want to go over and play with Janet Clark. She has a new doll's teaset and we can have a make-believe party," she said. "No, dear," Mrs. Adams replied, "not this morning. I happen to know that Mrs. Clark has a headache, and I'm afraid you children might disturb her. Remain here, watch for the postman, and do not go out of our yard." Clarice couldn't see what harm it would do, just to run over to Janet's and tell her she couldn't come, so she went slowly down the walk which led from the front steps. The something inside of her seemed to say, "Oh, Clarice," and the little girl turned and walked even more slowly back toward the porch steps. She sat down on the lowest one and began to think. What was it that her daddy said just the other night, about it not being right to do things what we are guilty and do not want to be caught. And there was something about God watching us especially, at such times, and feeling very, very sorry, if we keep on and do what we should not. Clarice couldn't remember just what the rest of it was, but it was suddenly very clear. It would be wrong to go to Janet's even for just a few minutes. It seemed as if the postman would never come, so Clarice thought she would take her own little broom and brush off the porch and straighten the rugs and make it very neat. That would help Nora and her mother, too. Clarice began to feel happier—and why, what was this? Something caught the light of the sun and sent out a little fan of golden rays. Clarice moved the big chair, although it took all her strength, but there, back of it and caught in a wide crack, was her lovely little locket which she had lost some time ago and felt so badly about. She worked the locket out of the crevice gently, so as not to mar it and was delighted to see it wasn't injured at all. And there was Mr. Jenks at last, and he took the letter and message and went on quickly. Just then some one came through the hedge. It was Janet. "I've come to play tea party," she cried. "Muver said I could." "And Nora is baking cookies," exclaimed Clarice, "and she'll give us some." That night when Clarice went to bed, she was very thoughtful and quiet. "A penny for your thoughts, daughter," laughed her mother. "I thought I was having an awful hard time," dimpled Clarice, "when I couldn't go with you or to Janet's house either, but Mummy, I had the nicest time after all and found my locket, too." "That's sure to be the way," Mrs. Adams nodded. "Much greater happiness comes through doing right than can ever come through selfishness or wrong doing." "An God is happy, too," added Clarice. "Yes," smiled her mother, "and that's why we are happy—because we are working with him and doing as he wants us to." Clarice's eyes were shining. "I understand now what daddy meant," she exclaimed—"an' I'm glad!" "So am I," replied her mother as she gave Clarice a good-night kiss.

I wrote it on Thursday and your paper comes out on Friday. I am still your loving buddy.

ARCHIE R. SMITH WILLIAM SMALLWOOD, THE AUTHOR OF "CHECKERS ANSWERS SOME LETTERS Dear Everybody; School again—school again—jiggety-jig! My mail is increasing so that my portfolio, my desk and boxes won't hold all of the letters. I am glad so many of you like "Checkers." In that story I tried to make real the soul of a Negro youth, and to glorify that which rules the world—mother love. I tried hard to please you. So the first word to the last of this letter is devoted entirely to my sister and brother Tribunites, who have written me letters. Now, about this letter affair. Oh boy! In several of the fan letters, the writers have requested me to answer their letters in the Kiddies' corner, signing only their initials. So I am doing so. Here goes: L. B.—No, I'm not fifteen, and tell the person who informed you to divide by two, and they will be nearer right! D. W. L.—Thanks, for the photograph, and say you certainly ought to join a beauty contest. O. W. W.—I am sorry, but find it impossible to grant your request, but thanks to you for your gift. J. D.—Listen, old boy, I'd like to meet you. Let me know when it is at your most convenient time and I'll arrange a meeting place. K. V.—Yes, I have a phone. I was born May 10, 1914, in Omaha, Nebraska. My hair is black. M. B.—My first article was a serial. I'm sorry but can't place the pen holder that I wrote it with. Yes, the story was a success, (or rather that's what they told me!). Certainly, I'll write. B. I.—Did you receive my picture? When? Thanks for your letter and its contents. B. L. F.—I received letter. Thanks. D. D. S.—No, I weigh 80.4 pounds. I haven't any pen-name. D. F.—Yes, I contemplate writing another story. Yes, I know E. W. B. A. C.—Address all my mail to William H. Smallwood, 783 Fairmont street, northwest, city. Yes, you can reach me through Mr. Frazier. Thanks for picture. This is just one-fourth of all my fan letters. Because of lack of space, you understand. But, please don't stop writing! I've received three specials, and honestly I feel like Rex Beach or Sunshine Sammy. I'm proud of you one and all, don't let me down so write some more. I'd like to hear from Joseph Winkefield, Ashton Brown and lots of others. Wm. H. SMALLWOOD BOYS' GENERAL ASSEMBLY, WITH HEADQUARTERS IN CHICAGO, IS BRANCH- Boyhood improvement, as planned by the Boys' General Assembly of America, is assuming national importance, as requests for affiliation roll in from various parts of the country. Cities in Missouri, Ohio, Texas and Tennessee are among the latest to apply for membership in this boyhood movement. The original manual of the Boys' General Assembly is undergoing a complete revising under the direction of General Commander Crosby. This instrument for the government of the B. G. A. is very exacting in its phraseology and touches on most every angle of boyhood improvement. The B. G. A. is strong for self-betterment, as is exemplified in its savings system, which is used to teach thrift to its members and their families. The assembly will inaugurate industrial departments. This boyhood organization also hs its charitable side, as is represented by some of the Good Samaritan works they now have to their credit, among which might be mentioned the gathering of shoes, clothes and wearing apparel, which were boxed up at B. G. A. headquarters and shipped to the sufferers in the Southland in January last. At Christmas time they gave out baskets of good cheer to the poor and needy. Activities similar to the above will be carried on by all local B. G. A.'s. Locals may be established in any part of America. Those interested in boyhood improvement and who may desire to establish locals may secure the necessary information, application blanks and probationary master commission by applying to the General Commander of the B. G. A., Joseph Crosby, 2313 West Lake Street, Chicago, Ill. THE CHILDHOOD OF MUSIC BY Alloyseus T. Pack As the people came to know more and more about music it became finer and finer. All the very old nations had systems of their own. The Greeks had scales like ours, but they may have been a little different from ours in some ways. Our wisest men can read all about the Greek music but yet we have little means of showing others how it was like or unlike our own music. At first music was written with letters of the alphabet. A few years later many men helped to make the different ways of writing notes. A system of writing notes is called notation. The men who made the first step in finding ways to write music deserve honor. Two among the names of pioneers in music were Arazzo who made the very first staff, and Cochran who was the first drummer, the time. Arazzo died in 1050. A beautiful funeral need not be a burden to those who must assume its responsibility. Our modern livery is in harmony with our well known policy of distinction. We offer for your service and inspection our ambulance equipped with totally new combinations of features and greater riding ease. We are also featuring our new white hearse, the only one of its kind in Washington. W. Ernest Jarvis Co. "As close to you as the nearest telephone." WEST END PARLORS 28th and Dumbarton Ave., N.W.

THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1927 HOWARD UNIVERSITY—- THE INTERNATIONAL INSTITUTION Howard University is more than @ school for Negroes, that has grown, aleng with the the post- war educational awakening, to an institution of learning which pro- hea for more than 2,000 Negroes yearly. It is a great cosmopolitan institution that offers the highest intellectual benefits to the races and sexes of the world. ‘Throughout the ton of its ex- istence, Howard University has drawn within its portals, students from the ‘states of the union, and from Africa, the British West In- dies, British Guiana, Canada, Cen- tral America, Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Jamaica, Porto Rico, the Republic of Columbia ‘and the Vir- gin Islands. It is apparent then that the work of Howard Univer- sity is more than national in. its influence.’ _ It has been stated that: “There are nearly 6,000 gradu- ates of Howard University. They are scattered throughout the world Pata engaged mainly in pro- sional activities. Some are even in the Far East and in Europe, others in Africa and the Islands of the Seas, but the bulk of them may be found in America. When Howard's doors were opened there were no racial lines drawn, there ‘were no tests as to creed and no bar as to sex. It was one of the earliest universities of this type in America, t “A member of Congress observed its first groups of students and remarked that “in this institution, as in no other in the land, it is be- lieved, the Ange ease, the Celt, the Indian, the Mongolian, the Greek and the African already sit, side by side, on the same bench. All races and both sexes have here in the pursuit of knowledge a fair and equal favor.” “The annual report of President Howard of 1872 stated that he had hoped ‘to preserve the cosmopoli- tan character of the university, drawing our pupils from all classes, conditions and nationalties.’ From this early tradition it has resulted, therefore, that ‘the graduates of Howard University are of both races.” Supplies BLANK BOOKS PENCILS FOUNTAIN PENS STATIONERY LEGAL FORMS INKS ERASERS GREETING CARDS ART NOVELTIES The Pandora GIFT SHOPPE 1017 U Street.

SUCCESSFUL GRADUATES OF THE WAHINGTON COL- LEGE OF PHARMACY Graduate of the Washington Col- lege of Pharmacy have been not- ably successful in the city of Washington and elsewhere, Since 1921, five graduates of the school have become owners of drug stores in this city. Dr. Luther D. Wise- man operates the establishment at 4th and Elm streets, northwest. In other sections of the city, stores are owned and operated by Dr. Vincent Thomas, at Twelfth and U streets, northwest, by Dr. Charles Twine, at 1319 H ‘street, north- east, by Dr. John L. Davidson, at First and N streets, southwest, and by Dr. W. T. Parker, at Third and Virginia avenue, southeast. Another interesting fact is that ninety per cent of the relief clerks in all of the colored drug stores of Washington, are graduates of this college, Finally it must be mentioned that 37 graduates-of the school have passed the various state boards since 1921. These figures speak for them- selves and compare favorably with the records of other schools of pharmacy*for the race. A. C. Bur- well, Phar.D., is president of the institution. ARMSTRONG SCHOOL NOTES By Lanier R. Covington Mrs. M. L. Denny has been transferred from Armstrong _ to Dunbar, while Mrs. E. B. Smith, formerly Miss E.

Boarding and Lodging T SERVICE THREE AFTER WAR TIMES A Boy's Life in Reconstruction Days By T. Thomas Fortune KLANSMEN AND THE TIGER CAT CHAPTER 10 One of the tasks young Timothy took pleasure in was herding the cattle in the late afternoon and rounding up the calves in the early morning. The calves seldom roamed far from home but the cattle often strayed miles away, hunting new and better grazing. If they had gone so far that the bell the leader wore could not be heard, Timothy would mount a fine pony he owned and go in the general direction the herd had headed for in leaving the pen in the morning. Rounding up the cows was rare sport for the youngster and sometimes proved very exciting, especially when his cattle got mixed up with some other herd and had to be separated. Cattle are much like some people when they make up their minds and refuse to unmake them; they become stupidly stubborn. Master the bell cow—the leader—and the herd generally can be controlled. Timothy found it to be so, and he found it to be that way in after years in dealing with a lot of men in all sorts of gatherings. Early one morning Timothy was out getting the calves started for the pen when he came upon a man sitting on a log fast asleep, with a rifle across his knees. Timothy came upon him suddenly and he was as startled as the sleeper, who jumped up and daggers at the boy, who refused to be worried in the least, however. It turned out to be Sergeant Barnes, the leader of the klansmen, who had been keeping watch for a chance to shoot the elder Fortune all night. And that was a nightly occurrence. Some one of them was on watch all the time after dark. On that account Emanuel Fortune, who had served his first session in the legislature, after serving in the constitutional convention, seldom remained in the village after sunset or left his house after nightfall. And he was always armed to the minute. Sergeant Barnse, after glaring at Timothy, stalked away towards the country district and away from the town and was soon hidden by the forest growth. Timothy was so absorbed thinking about the strange man with the rifle across his knees, and his villianous look—a long, lithe sharpoocher with an unblinking eye—that he quite forgot about the calves and where he was. He was lost in deep thought. As he emerged from a clump of scrub oak into a small oen space he was more startled than when he came upon the armed sentinel to come face to face with an enormous tiger cat, known as a catamount by the country folks, a very ferocious beast, which gave the farmers much concern by destroy-the young cattle.

Within the space af about six months, The Modern Crusaders, a distinctly modern fraternal benefit society, has succeeded in qualifying for permanent license from the State of Ohio by putting in force more than $500,000 worth of insurance upon the lives of some 531 applicants for membership, thereby meeting the stringent and rigid provisions of the law of Ohio relative to formation of such societies. Announcement to this effect was made here this week by Attorney Norman L. McGee, supreme herald, and publicity official of the society, following the receipt of notice from Hon. William C. Stafford, superintendent of insurance of the State of Ohio, by George P. Craig, supreme counselor of The Modern Crusaders, that permanent license was granted as of September 19. The society, according to law, had been operating under temporary license. HAVE YOU THOUGHT?

Washington Pirates Surprise League Leading Tigers Panthers, Myrtle Preps, Brookland and Anacostia Win ```markdown ``` Sam's Scripts Well, well, the joke's on Mrs. Strothers and her gang of Harrisburg Giants. On August 25 the Senators were booked to play the Baltimore Black Sox in this city. A large number of fans turned out to see the affair, but much to their disappointment when they arrived at the park they were greeted with the sign "game canceled—auto accident." Later development: allegedly proved that the Pennsylvanians, in reality, were in no such accident but instead stopped over in Pottstown and played an exhibition game there. This failure to show up on the part of Ma Strothers' aggregation meant nothing less than the loss of the lead in the second half of the Eastern League and a subsequent crack at the Eastern pennant and world's championship. Had they come on to Washington, played Ben Taylor's crew and won, the Giants would have won the Eastern League second half honors. Having won it they would have played the Bacharachs for the circuit pennant, the winner of which meets the Negro National League champions in a World's Series We were mad when they pulled that trick on us, but with all due respects to them in sportsmanship—he who laughs next to last had best save his grin. I see by the papers Jack Coles and "Tick" Smith are missing from the Blue and White camp. Smith is in town, but the Bison gridders are singing, "T Wonder What's Become of Jackie?" Webb Lee's Togans are possessed of some pretty nifty ball players. Arter Johnson, first sacker, is going mighty good at the plate while "Pop George" Davis, and "Turkey" Brown, ex-Armstrong diamonders are doing some clever fielding and base running. "Dick" Temnle whose leadership and stellar playing has brought the Brookland Giant's in to the Class A running left last week for Lincoln to take up his football training duties with the Lion squad. "Foots" Allen, a classmate and captain of the 1925 Tech eleven, accompanied him Allen is without a doubt one of the best backfield products ever developed in the local high schools. MOUMENTAL TENNIS CLUB LOSES TO WALKER MEN By James Otis A team of Walker Club players led by Dr. R. Robinson met and defeated the less experienced Monumental Tennis team last Sunday. The James E. Walker team was composed of Dr. Robinson Hardy Jones, Clyde Freeman and Eddie Davis, while Monumental was represented by Lawrence Byrd, Lee Brown, Earl, Turner and J. O. Williams. No referees were used, and the matches were marked with spice and sportsmanship. The more experienced players won all of the matches except the one between Dr. R. Robinson and J. O. Williams the latter taking the match after losing the first set 5-7, 6-1, 6-2. Lee Brown extended Clyde Freeman three sets only to lose. Every Sunday one may find tennis matches at Monumental Club well worth the trip to see, on the courts at the foot of the Washington Monument. Results of the matches were: Hardy Jones defeated L. Byrd; Clyde Freeman defeated Leo Brown; Eddie Davis defeated Earl Turner, 6-0; 6-0; J. Williams defeated R. Robinson; R. Robinson defeated Brown and Byrd. DUDLEY'S HORSE LONG SHOT WIN MARLBORO, Md. Sept. 22.—S. H. Dudley put over a winner here last Friday when Snuffy accounted for the purse in the 5½ furlong sprint of the second race and paid his baskets $50.80, the longest price of the meeting. Jockey Emery gave Snuffy a powerful ride throughout, saving ground turning for home, and in a whipping finish scored over Jedburgh Abbey. Third money went to Button Bright. Snuffy got away in the rear of the field. Emery hustled him to the front rounding the first turn. He had to be extended to 'sall off Jedburgh Abbey that came with a rush in the final drive. Two dollar mutuals paid $50.80 to win, $18.60 to place, and $7.40 to show. THE SPORT REVIEW COLESVILLE UPSET BY PIRATES IN TWIN BILL MONUMENT DIAMOND 6— The Class B league leading Coleville Tigers experienced quite a serious, and damaging setback in their pennant winning aspirations down here last Sunday. The Washington Pirates handed them a sound lacing in a double defeat by scores of 15-8 and 11-7. Coleman with 8 hits in 8 times at bat for the two games led an attack of vicious hitting on the part of the locals, while Lucas and Grinnell were holding the Jungleers at bay. The usually hard-hitting Maryland nine was completely snowed under an avalanche of Pirate hits which totaled 39 for the two games. # FIRST GAME Pirates ab h r Coleville ab h r Jones,ss 5 1 2 Webster,3b 4 1 0 Johnson,c 5 1 2 Hpnesty,1b 4 1 0 Jackson,2b 5 3 2 Lan'c'ter,ss 4 3 1 Colman,3b 5 5 4 Lomax,lf 4 2 1 Butler,1b 5 4 Admas,rf 4 1 0 Field,cf 5 2 1 Campbell,c 3 0 2 Mullen,lf 4 2 0 E.Hyson,cf 3 0 1 Grinnell,rf 3 0 0 Hil,2b 3 1 2 Grinnell,p 3 2 0 Admas,p 3 1 0 Moore,cf 0 0 0 Jackson,cp 1 0 0 Powell,lf 0 0 0 Su'ton,3b 2 0 0 Kelly,c 1 0 0 B.Hyson,c 1 0 0 MYRTLE PREPS DEFEAT BRIGHTWOOD HIGHL'NDERS BRIGHTWOOD, D.C. — "Pee Wee" Shepherd's Myrtle Peep, now up among the leaders in Class A, met and defeated the Brightwood Highlanders in their double attraction out here last Sunday. The games ended 10-4 and 6-4. Stanback, on the hill for the Preps in the opening game, was most effective. He whipped 11 Highlanders, and kept the Green batters baffled throughout. Though Medley held them to 3 hits in the nightcap the Myrtle boys took advantage of every Brightwood miscue and came out ahead. HILLSDALES IN DUAL WIN OVER POTOMACS PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 17.—Phil Cockrell added another game to his long list of wins when he pitched the Darby Daisies to victory over Lou Schaub's Camden team in a class contest at the Darby lot which Hildale won by the score of 3 to 2. Aside from shading Elmer Krepps in an interesting hurling duel, Cockrell cracked out a two-base blow in the second frame that sent two Daisies over the pan with the first scores of the game. Judy Johnson started the inning by working Krepps for a free pass to first base, and advanced to second on Briggs' sacrifice, Bill Johnson looked over four bad ones and Cockrell's double put the home team out in front. Camden tied the count by scoring two runs in the fifth session, Judy Johnson put Kelling on base when he messed up his roller. Curry singled to right and Kelling pulled up at second. O'Donnell reached first base while Kelling was forced at third base. Carey then slashed a triple to deep center scoring Kelling and O'Donnell. Hilldale bagged the contest in its half of the fifth inning, when Jake Stevens singled to center and stole second, George Carr came SAMUEL H.

Once again the bronzed body of DeHart Hubbard flashed through the air to establish a broad jump record here last Saturday. Hubbard, who is the holder of the world's record of 25 feet 10-7-8 inches, leaped 25 feet 2¼ inches in the municipal track meet sponsored by the public recreation commission. He also equalled the world's record of 9-3-5 seconds for the 100-yard dash. BROOKLAND GIANTS TAKE TWO FROM ALL STARS 415 and Maine—The Brookland Giants kept pace with the league leading Elite Panthers by winning both games of their Class A double bill with the Washington All-Stars down here last Sunday. The scores were 16-8 and 7-1. Sam Clark's hitting and the pinch pitching of Thomas was a feature of the first game, while "Boots" Kenny's effectiveness on the mound and the hard-hitting of Hawkins, Clark and Brown gave the Giants the second tilt. Kenny fanned 14 men in the 6-inning finale.

Thomas, who knew absolutely nothing about football in 1925, was developed into a capable guard at the close of the season. Possessing all of the characteristics of a tackle, Coach Watson shifted him to a tackle position in 1926 where he starred all season. The coach had fond anticipations of this husky youngster's performance this season, but unfortunately Thomas will not be able to return to college this year. Coles, whose sensational exhibition of ball carrying and generalship last year, had not been heard from at the time of this paper's going to press. Unless he shows up pretty soon Coach Watson will have quite a task grooming someone to fill his berth. "Tick" Smith showed up Wednesday, Harry Payne came in to the fold the same day. These men in addition to Jack Young, Dan Brown, "Horse" Ross, "Pete" Tyson, Cecil Hinton and "Snake" Euell who are already on the grounds, the Blue and White backfield takes on the same proportion of strength as in its championship season. Bob Miller is known nationally as an All-American guard, but Watson figures him to be the most logical candidate for Thomas' tackle berth. Miller has weight, aggressiveness, speed and an abundance of experiencing in the line. It remains only to develop him in the fine points of playing tackle. Ex-Captain Vernon Smith and Captain "Bift" Martin are render- Anacostia, D. C.—Webb Lee's Ivy City clan evened an old score with the Columbis Cubs last Sunday when they downed the Meridian Hill lads by an 8-7 score. Hawkins, who started on the mound for the Togans, was unable to withstand the Cubs hit when on two occasions snatched away a comfortable lead his teammates had given him. "Stump" Allen finished the game and was credited with the victory, his third straight. John Levi, Armstrong pitcher, toiling for the Columbians had 8 strike out victims. strike-out victims.

Kiger Savoy, president of the Eastern Board of Officials, last Thursday called the arbiters of football games in this section in to a conference for discussion of the new rules to be enforced during the approaching gridiron season, and to make a serious study of the rules that have been in use in the past. Efficiency in football arbitration, according to Savoy, is a matter dependent upon a close understanding of all the rules of the game. In order to secure that, there must be constant study, frequent conferences, contact with other officials, and perfect co-ordination among the men called upon to handle the games. "A third team (consisting of officials) is as essential as the two contending teams," is the slogan of the head of this group of men. Among the items receiving special study at this meeting was the (Continued on page 7) (Continued on page 7) Capt. MILFRED 'BIFF' MARTIN versatile Bison pivotman. ing valuable assistances to the coaches in developing this year's material. It appears that with Big Smith and Bob Miller, tackles, Rainey and Kelly guards, and Captain Martin, center, this year's line will be quite as strong and perhaps more efficient than the line of the championship team of 1926. The coaches are by no means certain of their wing material. The loss of Campbell and Simpson is keenly felt. Campbell was out, but he turned in his equipment Tuesday. No reason was given. Simpson's return is doubtful. Reserve backs are about as strong as in 1926, but reserve material in the line and flanks is woefully weak just now. The coaches are extremely anxious to get their hands on all material in the university so as to develop a second string strong enough to relieve the first string in minor engagements this fall. The Howard schedule is long and hard and it is going to be a big problem to keep the squad on edge with five major engagements following in succession and the annual classic only ten days after this series of tests. LIVINGSTONE FOOTBALL SQUAD BEGINS TRAINING SALISBURY, N. C.—The Livingstone Bears have come growling from their lair and were carried through their initial practice of the season. Reid, Duncan, Jones, and Smith who graduated last year will be greatly missed, but Coach "Iron Man" Meeks thinks that their places can be filled by freshmen and candidates from various other schools. Meeks is very optimistic and says there will 'e a different tale told from that of last year when the Bears meet the Bisons in Washington on October 8. The squad thinks itself fortunate in getting seven of Price High's men. All have had from three to four years of training and it will not be hard to break them into college football. The letter men that reported for practice were Nicholson, Moreland, Butler, Jones and Captain McDonald. Livingstone's schedule for this year follows: October— 1—Mary Potter at Livingstone. 8—Livingstone at Howard. 15—St. Augustine at Livingstone. 28—Claffin College at Livingstone. November— 19—Livingstone at Durham. 24—J. C. S U. at Livingstone.

BALTO.BLACK SOX BLACK SOX NOSED OUT BY ORIENT'LS TO PLAY CUBANS PLAY MINOR LEAGUERS SUNDAY The American League Baseball Park, on September 26, 27 ant 28 will be the scene of intense rivalry and good baseball when Alex Pompez's Cuban Stars and the Baltimore Black Sox hook up in a 3-game post-season series here. WASHINGTON BEN TAYLOR Taylor will appear here with the Baltimore Black Sox next week. Washington fans who were cheated of the opportunity to see the Harrisburg Giant-Baltimore Black Sox engagement, August 25, will be allowed a glimpse of the Eastern leaguers next week. The Pennsylvanians failed to show up and as a consequence some 3500 persons were turned away from the park. Such a recurrence, however, has been guarded against in the agreement for the coming series. The local management is in possession of signed contracts that the contenders will be in Washington no later than two hours before game time. The managers of both teams have sent their respective line-ups for the series. Looking them over one might anticipate a battle of exceptional pitchers and sluggers. "Baba" Wilson who finished second among the leading batters of the Eastern League for the season just closed. Accompanying him is a host of consistent stickmen. All Washington fans know that Ben Taylor, Pete Washington and Mack Eggleton are by no means weak with the willow themselves. Then again in "Scrappy" Brown, the Black Sox are possessed of one of the games most sensational fielding shortfielders. Diligo, no doubt the country's greatest all-round Negro ball player, leads a team of exceptional ball tossers. The Cuban batting order features Baro and Oms, two of the league's most dangerous swatsmiths. Following is the way they will line-up: Baltimore Sox Cuban Stars Holloway, lf Alfonso, 2b Brown, ss Valgas, 1b Wilson, 3b Baro, cf Washington, cf Dihigo, ss Taylor, 1b Oma, lf Jackson, 2b Fabre, rf Eggleston, rf Crespo, 3b Clark, c Fernandez, c McClure, p Pedroco, c Force, p Oscar, p Yokely, p San, p Strong, p Juanelo, p Rodriguez, p Mesa, p Senor C. de Quesada, Cuban Consul with a staff of 12, has an nounced his intention to be present at the opening contest Monday.

The Washington Black Sox are to play Lewis' All Stars (white), a team composed of former Minor Leaguers, Sunday in a double-header beginning at 2:30 p.m. What might be considered the baseball championship of the District of Columbia went with the victory of the Oriental Tigers over the Washington Black Sox at Union League Park, last Sunday. The score was 7-6. The Prides of the Point were rewarded with the verdict when, following an uphill battle which finally put them in the van, Scriver tightened and held Sheffield's crew at bay. A loose defense, after having established a 4-run lead proved the undoing of the semi-pros. Lefty George Smith faced Black-foot Scriver and a pitcher's battle ensued. The southwest hurler was accorded the better support. Darkness halted the night cap with the score 1-0 in the fourth inning. The Black Sox led. It was declared "no game." Seriver bested G.

THEATRICAL Hard-Boiled Haggerty with MOLLEY O'DAY Friday, Saturday, Sept. 30 & Oct. 1 RICHARD DIX in "MAN POWER" "BROWN SKIN MODELS" BROWN SKIN MODELS At the Howard Next Week For the week beginning Monday matinee; September 26, the Howard Theatre has secured Irvin C. Miller's fourth edition of "Brown Skin Models" starring the well known and lovable Blanch. Thompson. Miss Thompson has in the past always pleased the Washington theatre-goers. There is also a supporting cast including Elinor Wilson, Eva Metcalf, Lena Leggete, Ray Goins, Monty Hawley, Artie Rammond, Ula Cayola and also the Nippon's Six, the Japanese novelty act. In addition to this excellent cast there will also be seen the charming chorus of the usual Miller beauties. In addition to the offering of "Brown Skin Models" for the week the screen attraction for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday will be the "Perfect Sap," featuring Ben Lyon and Pauline Starke. The handsome young star Ben Lyon is cast as a rather moist son of wealthy parents, who grows decidedly manly when he completes his correspondence course in Sherlocking and takes to sleuthing the underworld, and while trying to learn about crooks-had his heart captured by a beautiful bobbed hair bandit. On Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, will be seen Reginald Denny in his new starring vehicle "Fast and Furious." This is a story of a speedmaniac who meets his Waterloo when he finds himself flat on his back amid the wreckage of his space-annihilator gazing up into the baby blue eyes of the only girl in the world, thereby not only losing the race but also his heart. There is not a dull moment in the entire picture. On Friday the regular midnight ramble will be held at which time the patrons are assured of two and one-half hours of real entertainment. Reserved seat tickets for the midnight ramble go on sale at the box office of the theatre on Saturday of the week before the show. MILTON SILLS AND CONWAY TEARLE AT THE LINCOLN NEXT WEEK On Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, September 25, 26 and 27, the screen attraction at the Lincoln will be the ever popular Milton Sills in "Hard Boiled Haggerty." We have seen Milton Sills in every role from that of a sea pirate to that of an overseer in an African mine, but this time you will see this lovable star in an entirely MATINEE DAILY—15c TO ALL Except Sundays & Holidays) Lincoln Theatre U Street at 12th Direction, A.

In this picture the rugged star provides everything from a spine tickling thrill during the war scenes in the early part of the picture to that of a perfect lover on the Parsian boulevard. This is said by critics to be his most exciting picture since the "Sea Hawk." In the supporting cast will be seen Molly O'Day, and George Fauccit. On Wednesday and Thursday, September 28 and 29, the management will give to his patrons two high-class feature pictures the V Conway Tearle in The Greater Glory' first of these being, "The Greater Glory" starring the two perfect lovers Conway Tearle and Anna Q. Nilsson. This is an odd title for such a spectacular picture which depicts the conditions in Vienna before and after the war. It has been especially written for the screen from the celebrated novel "Viennese Medley" by Edith O'Shaughnessy, the wife of the American minister to Austria. More than a year was spent on its production and a vast company of stars including May Allison, Ina Keith, and Jean Hersholt and sixteen hundred extras were used. No greater theme could have been found than Vienna, before, during and after the war, as it is and always has been loved by all the world. Before the war it was the romantic center of all the world.

With it came hunger and cold, the terrors of impending destruction. The gay music turned to tears. Defeat sat heavily upon the once proud city. Peace and prosperity fled before revolution and bread riots. Noble families were humbled in the dust, while a new class of war barons and war profiteers ousted them from their castles, and like vultures fattened on the general upset. This is drama, peignant and mighty. A fine old Viennese family is the centre around which the whole cataclysm revolves. The other feature will be "Time to Love," starring the great funmaker, Raymond Griffith. This is a farce comely and it is a story of a young man who, disillusioned in love, tries to commit suicide, only to fall in love more violently than ever. On Friday and Saturday, September 30, and October 1, will be seen Richard Dix in "Manpower," supported by Mary Brian. In this production the dare-devil Richard appears as a strapping former officer of the tank corps who endeavors to turn a dilapidated tractor factory into an up and going business. Needless to say he does but not until obstacles have made him stump again and again. In addition to the showing of the two-thousand thrill power picture "Manpower," on Saturday only will be seen the Universal Master serial "Blake of Scotland Yard," and also three big talent shows at 5, 11:30 and 9:15.

SPORTS (Continued from page 5) FOOTBALL OFFICIALS IN FIRST CONFERENCE (Continued from page 5) HAMPTON GRIDDERS, C. I. A. A. CHAMPS, By James B. Clarke HAMPTON INSTITUTE, Va., Sept. 17.—Under an Indian summer sun that cast its wrath down upon Armstrong Field, Coach Gideon E. Smith held the first practice of the Blue and White a number of happenings that affect the Blue and White squad more or less seriously. One of them is to the effect that there is a rumor (which seems to contain more truth than error) that Elmer Baker, the star punter and drop kicker from Phoebus, Va., will not be back with the squad, but will go to Clark University in Atlanta, Ga. If this report is true, and there is every reason to believe that it is true, Coach Smith will have to look around for a punter and drop kicker. The other happening was the sudden call to Captain W. D. Williams to attend the funeral of his mother in Tulsa, Okla. Captain "Bulldog" Williams will not probably be with the squad until the latter part of the month. In making the final count, there were twenty-three new men and ten old ones, in uniform for the first practice. Among the new men reporting to the coach, are several men with records that look worth while. There is also a wealth of material that was developed last season in the inter-class football games. New men reporting are: Oscar Jones (182-lb) of Kansas City, Mo., with a record of having played with University of Minnesota sound as fullback. Joseph H. Henson (169-lb) end from Cambridge, Md. James Early (158-lb) end, Altoona, Penn. Charles Thornton (139-lbs) end, Kansas City, Mo., Lincoln High. George A. Rivers (151-lb) half back, Phoebus, Va. George W.

With Thomas and Colbert leading an attack of 18 hits behind "Toots" Brown's effective hurling the Specials were snowed under in the opening contest. Though the league leaders were placed at a 5-run disadvantage in the opening frame of the night-cap, they came from behind by virtue of a steady bombardment on the offerings of the Special pitch- # FIRST GAME Panthers ab h r | Specials ab h r Thomas,c 4 4 3 | Page,1b 2 1 0 Ross,3b 5 3 2 | Clemons,1b 1 0 0 Braiddic,ss 5 3 2 | Vessel,2b 1 1 0 T.Brown,p 3 4 1 | S.Page,cf 3 1 0 Colbert,2b 4 4 4 | Mack,2b 2 0 0 Hnsb'r,h'lf 5 0 0 | Frazier,3b 0 0 0 Faxio,rf 4 1 0 | Jones,ss 3 0 0 Hill,cf 4 1 0 | Davis,ss 0 0 0 Gilbert,1b 3 1 3 | Gilmore,1b 0 0 0 Smith,2b 3 0 0 Ray,c 3 1 1 Peyton,lf 3 1 2 Ray,p 3 1 1 Waters,p 1 0 0 Hickman,rf 3 0 0 Totals 37 18 19 | Totals .27 6 4 Two-base hits—Thomas, Braddic, T.

WASHINGTON'S NITE LIFE GETS UNDER WAY The 'bright lights' of Washington, flickered in their settings of orientalism and novelty this past week when the doors of the Oriental Gardens and the new Lenox Nite Club were pushed ajar to admit the pleasure seekers of the Capital. The Oriental, opening this year without the confusion of reconstruction, and renovation; is a much improved amusement house. It is larger, with considerably more dancing space. The entertainer, though not in a class with Josephine Baker, Ethel Waters, of Izzy Ringgold, is nevertheless entertaining. She can dance, and even sing fairly well. The gayety and frivolity was enhanced last night when several of the members of "Dark Secrets," now playing the Howard Theatre, accepted the invitation of Mr. Lewis Thomas to be the guests of the Gardens. The Lenox Nite Club, which impresses one more as a supper club than a cabaret was rather quiet when visited. It is, however, a beautiful place. Miss Gertie Wells, well known for her ability as piano player and entertainer, is at the Lenox. The Lenox offers its patrons radio concerts, refined entertainment and the services of a grill room. From first appearances, it seems that Washington may fare a bit better this year so far as its nite life is concerned. COUNTRY CLUB TO HOLD HANDICAP TOURNAMENT The National Capital Country Club will hold an invitation handicap golf tournament at the club on September 25, beginning at 10 a.m. The competition will consist of 18 holes, medal play. Prizes will be awarded for low gross scores and low net scores. The tournament will be first of a series of similar tournaments leading up to the Southern Championship of the United States Colored Golfers Association, which will be held here on October 22 and 23. A long list of entrants is presented, including Harry M. Jackson, former national open champion; Beltran Barker, national amateur champion, 1926, and holder of the local course record; Jack Shippen; Dr. George Adams, member of the executive committee of the U.S.C.G.A.; Pleasants Brown, local champion; Dr. Albert R. Harris; Victor R. Daly, Walker Savoy, attorney Charles S. Cuney, W. R. Wilks, William A. Reid, and a host of others. All information regarding the tournament may be obtained from John M. Shippen, the Club pro, or by telephone from North 7277. COACH WATERS GRILLS N. CAROLINA COLLEGE TEAM DURHAM, N. C. Sept. 22.—Putting his team through grilling practice twice daily, "Dave" Waters is rapidly rounding his boys into shape for their first clash of the season, with Chaffin University team, on the grounds of the Durham School, October 1. Nine of last year's Eagles and twice as many aspirants for berths on the first team are beginning to show the effects of Water's hard training. The squad will have had a full month's training when they tackle Chaffin, as they have been on the scene since September 1. Local football fans look forward to the game with Chaffin with keen anticipation of a hard fought battle. The natural inter-state rivalry, they say, will inject a lot of pep into the struggle. They are also interested in whether Dave Waters can deliver the goods or not, and develop a championship team for North Carolina College. The Arlington Athletics, Class A, Tribune League team will meet the Arlington Bearcats (white) in the first game of a series for the baseball championship of Arlington Sunday at Arlington. The game will get under way at 3 o'clock. It should be quite an interesting match. AMBOY KNOCKED OUT BY DILLARD BALTIMORE, Md.—"Iron Man" Dillard knocked out Humphrey Amboy, of New Jersey, in the first round of a scheduled six-round en- counter at the New Albert Auditorium Friday night. A hard right to the head sent Amboy to the mat for the full count. He previously took a count of two in the first round. Both boxers weighed 148 pounds. In a fast semi-final Young Sam Langford lost a four-round decision to Young Harry Wills. In the preliminaries Young Norfolk defeated Calvin Lamson in three rounds, Gerald Reeder knocked out Bright Eyes in two rounds, and Kid Eat 'Em Up scored a kayo over Joe Cook in one round.

Before a large and enthusiastic group of checker fans a team of checker players from Baltimore, headed by Dr. B. M. Rhetta, went down to defeat before the crack checker team of the Twelfth Street Branch Y. M. C. A., captained by Theodore Hines, on Monday, September 12. The tournament was played in the lobby of the Twelfth Street Y. M. C. A. The Baltimore team consisted of Dr. B. M. Rhetta, Theodore Roberts, William T. Bailey, J. C. Spriggs and Howard Young. The Washington "Y" was composed of Theodore Hines, Charles Killingsworth, Isaiah D. Kearse, Louis Johnson, Timothy Burgess, Wilkinson and Lewis. Roberts, Rhetta and Young were defeated by Hines, Kearse and Lewis, respectively, while Johnson disposed of Bailey of Baltimore after he had scored a decisive victory over Killingsworth. Spriggs of Baltimore, accounted for the other wins accredited the Monumental City by taking into camp both Wilkinson and Burgess. The final score was Washington, 4; Baltimore, 3. A series of tournaments are planned between the two cities during the coming winter. RADIO CONCERTS REFINED ENTERTAINING Lenox N 925 N St DINE an Lenox Nite Club 925 N Street, N.W.

A MARION DAVIES production A Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer picture NEW YORK, Sept. 21- "Africana," the Earl Dancer revue starring Ethel Waters, gave its final performance at Skubert's National Theatre last Saturday. Although New York is alive with various tales as to the sudden and unannounced closing, it is generally believed that the impending Daly Theatre suit was the cause. Whatever may have been the reason, the fact remains that the National is dark and Miss Waters is appearing at Keith's Palace Theatre this week. It is said that every vaudeville artist hopes at some time before he or she dies or retires from the profession to play the Palace. So Miss Waters, on her return to the Keith circuit at a top-notch salary, is being honored by opening at this coveted Broadway house. AVOID LAXATIVES Constipation is due largely to faulty diets and habits. Proper diet will go a long way toward correcting the trouble. So will plenty of exercise. The U.S. Public Health Service advises against the habitual use of laxatives as they make the condition worse. In emergency cases milk of magnesia may be used, or an enema of one-half to one ounce of olive oil may be used occasionally.

All perishable foods are kept in a massive refrigerator, which is cooled by a Frigidaire unit. By this equipment, Mr. Graves not only makes his own ice, but also obtains ice cold running water. A long range runs the length of the kitchen. Clean, white butcher tables are in the center of this kitchen, which has a high, airy ceiling. In such surroundings, Mr. Graves carries a stock of food large enough to feed a thousand people, without the slightest inconvenience; and still maintains sanitation behind closed doors. "WHO' WHO AMONG OUR ADVERTISERS JOHN T. RHINES & COMPANY IS 21 YEARS OLD A leader among Washington's funeral directors, is John T. Rhines, who for the past 21 years has been developing a most creditable business concern. Mr. Rhines has re-invested his profits so that he might keep a step ahead of his competitors. His establishment boasts of a well equipped office, chapel, morgue, and stock room, 'as well as a 15-car garage. The stock room contains caskets and vaults of every description, as well as all kinds of fixtures and fittings, necessary to the business. Shrods for men and women, include dresses of all colors and materials, suits, and tuxedos. All of the stock is bought by the carload, and on a cash basis. To operate this business, Mr. Rhines employs seven regular employees, and often, many extras. He has two embalmers, a book-keeper, and four chauffeurs. Sensing the need for a well-equipped ambulance for race people of this city, Mr. Rhines purchased a palatial invalid coach. Such a vehicle was sorely needed for the transportation of the sick. In the past, such service has been either inadequate or reluctantly given. Mr. Rhines is a licensed funeral director in Virginia, Illinois, and the District of Columbia. He came to Washington twenty-one years ago from Chicago, Ill. He belongs to nearly every fraternal order in this section. Mr. Rhines is a member of the Zion Baptist Church. WEDS IN OHIO The marriage of Miss Mabel Jones, daughter of John Jones, to Dr. Charles Wendell Freeman, son of Mr. George F. Freeman, which took place Wednesday, September 14, is of much interest here, where Mr. Freeman and his family have lived for many years. The ceremony took place Wednesday evening at the bride's home in Columbus, Ohio. A reception followed, after which Dr. and Mrs. Freeman left for this city. THE WASHINGTON TRIBUNE, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 23, 1927 NURSES' NEGLECT LEADS TO DEATH OF CHILD NURSES' NEGLECT LEADS TO DEATH OF CHILD tor, the Tribune reporter was told warned the mother against allowing the baby to catch cold. Burns, the doctor declares he advised Mrs. Newhy, are particularly dangerous if pneumonia is contracted, and for this reason he said that the child should be kept out of any draught and indoors where the temperature was warm. At the inquest, Doctor Tyler testified that the infant had shown continued improvement until Sunday morning, September 18, when he was called by the parents who said the child had experienced a sudden relapse. The day before, Dr. Tyler told the writer, he had, upon his arrival at the Newby home, found the baby in the yard, for which the parents were reprimanded by him. He declared that the child's condition Sunday was due to pneumonia contracted while exposed the day before. He told the mother that he held no hope for the baby's recovery. The child died twenty minutes after his departure. Mrs. Newby became very indignant with the hospital authorities, and the coroner was notified despite the fact that Dr. Tyler had signed the certificate of death and gave as its cause pneumonia. At the inquest Tuesday, the mother testified that the nurse concealed the true condition of her baby from her as long as possible. She declared that the authorities wanted her to leave the baby. The hospital officials, however, stated that the mother was persuaded to stay with the child, but she refused. The autopsy on the body showed that death was due to burns and pneumonia. Dr. Joseph D. Rodgers, assistant coroner, performed the autopsy. The negligence, the jury found, was not of criminal degree. DR. A. A. RUSSELL MUST PAY ALIMONY (Continued from page 1) 13 last, sent for him, Dr. Russell claims, and he went to her resi- dence because he knew that his wife's dislikes for her would cause trouble if he had allowed her to call at his office. Shortly after he began the practice of dentistry, Dr. Russell asserts, his wife began to make his life miserable by accusing him or undue familiarity with his female patients. She nagged and abused him, he charges. Has Lost Patients Dr. Russell admits that he had a very good practice at one time, but declares that since his son, Dr. Aaron S. Russell, has been practicing dentistry in the same house, 602 K street, he has lost a great many patients. Since he has moved his office, his son gets most of his patients, Dr. Russell alleges. He adds that he believes his wife is prompted to her actions by her desires to further the interests of her son. Dr. Aaron S. Russell, the son, makes an affidavit in which he denies that he has interfered with his father's practice. He says that he has directed numerous patients to the present office of his father. Dr. and Mrs. Russell had been married for 35 years when their martial difficulties found their way into the divorce courts. They were married July 18, 1892. They have two children, Mrs. Hilda D. Russell Cisteros and Dr. Aaron S. Russell. BAPTISTS HEAR MISS NANNIE BURROUGHS DETROIT, Mich.—The National-al Baptist Convention just closed its 47th annual session in this city. For a full week, this host of Christian men and women packed the City Auditorium and the Second Baptist Church of which Rev. R. L. Brady is pastor. Distinguished men and women in all walks of life and from every section of the country were seen and heard during the greatest meeting of Christian Negroes that Detroit will see in this generation. The women brought to Detroit by far the best known and most popular person that was in attendance upon either convention. Miss Nannie H. Burroughs., of Washington, D. C. She delivered the key note address last Tuesday night to an audience that filled every space in the City Auditorium. She spoke on "The Achievements of the Church." It was the best address heard during the entire convention. It convinced all that whatever it takes to win in this civilization, the Negro has it. Her annual report to the Woman's Convention proved to be another rousing message that went to the hearts of the great audience that sat spell-bound for an hour as this educator and peer among Christian leaders presented a constructive and workable program that can reach the last Ne- gro and the least Negro in back woods or in great cities. Miss Burroughs simply got down to fundamentals and the people were fired to attempt great things for their race and for God. Every copy of the report was sold in less than an hour. Miss Burroughs was unanimously re-elected as corresponding secretary of the Woman's Convention. She received ovation after ovation and many beautiful presents. She reported over six thousand dollars raised during the year, and the way in which the people rallied to her ringing appeal for co-operation and support for the incoming year is an assurance that the work of the Woman's Convention is going gloriously forward. Mrs. S. W. Layten, of Pennsylvania, is the president of the Women's convention. The old staff of officers were re-elected, and many new features introduced in keeping with the program of expan- Fig. 1—Shows Cabinets and Fig. 2—Shows Complete Inter Fig. 3—Shows Rear View. 369 Fig. 1—Shows Cabinets and Luxurious Interior.
