Arthur L. Briscoe, 2712 O street, northwest, driver of the Ford touring car which struck McCoy, April 3, last, was absolved of all blame. McCoy, who lived at 2222 H street, northwest, died at Emergency Hospital, Sunday. An inquest was immediately ordered by Coroner J. Ramsey Nevitt. Did Not See McCoy Testimony showed that McCoy, believed to have been under the influence of an intoxicant, walked into the car of Briscoe as the latter turned into Twenty-fourth street, a little after dark on April 3. Briscoe declared he did not know he had struck anyone, and for that reason failed to stop. A license tag falling to the ground from insecure fastenings led to Briscoe's arrest a week later. He explained that he had brushed the side of an unlighted parked car in the turn and had evidently then lost the license plate. Leaves Hospital McCoy was taken to Emergency Hospital in the ambulance, and treated by Dr. James W. Campbell. His condition was not serious.

Boy, 12 Years Old, is First Victim of Vacation Season HAD GONE FISHING Pulmotor Efforts Made by Gallinger Hospital Physicians Fail The alluring waters of the East Potomac River penned their first youthful victim of the vacation season on the Harbor Police Precinct blotter when twelve-year-old William E. Dent, 648 I street, southeast, was drowned, Monday. The boy known throughout his home neighborhood as "Bud," left his house early Monday morning with Cecil Watts, and George Washington, both of the 300 block of G street, southeast, and several other friends, all of them students at the Lincoln Graded School. The boys left home with the intention of going fishing. After having spent several hours on the river wall just off the Pennsylvania Avenue Bridge, Dent and one of his friends decided to "take a dip." The youngster who accompanied the unfortunate lad refused to be led far from the side bank. Dent, however, according to eyewitnesses, ventured too far from the wall and was unable to get back. Notifies Policemen His mates hurriedly got in touch with Mrs. Hattie Dent, the child's mother, who in turn immediately notified police of the Harbor Precinct. Privates C. R. Spring and D. O. Hayes, both white, dispatched to the scene, found the boy's body in the waters just back of the Gallinger Hospital. After pulling him out, the officers had Dr. M. Hyman and Miss M. Hawkins, a nurse, both of the Gallinger Hospital staff, make efforts to revive the youngster, but even Dr. Hawkins' pulmotor efforts were of no avail. Funeral services for Dent were held Thursday at noon from the Ebenezer Methodist Episcopal Church, Rev. R. W. S. Thomas officiating. The boy is survived by his parents, Thomas and Bessie E. Dent, and two sisters, Ruth and Viola Dent. SWEETHEART KILLER IS SENTENCED George Herbert Thompson, 21-year-old youth, was sentenced, Tuesday, by Justice Frederick L. Siddons in criminal court No. 2, to be electrocuted in the District jail, Monday, July 30. Thompson murdered his youthful sweetheart, Elsie R. Bowen, for which he was convicted recently of first degree murder carrying with it the death penalty. He and his sweetheart quarreled concerning another man with whom Thompson saw her.

W. Perry, secretary of the Home Department of the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, who, as the representative of the Board of Missions, arranged for the Pastors' and Workers' School.

RO Pool YOUTH IS FREED OF CHARGE Two Husky Policemen Fail to Convince Judge That Boy Assaulted Them COPS WEIGH 200 LBS. Simms, Only 19 Years Old, Weighs Scant 135 Pounds Because Judge John P. McMahon could not be convinced that a small nineteen-year-old youth, who weighed less than 135 pounds, was guilty of an assault on two representatives of the law's strongarm, John Simms, 1620 Fifth street, northwest, was freed of charges made by E. K. O'Brien and George Sorber, Second Precinct policemen, Tuesday. O'Brien, standing over six feet in height and beating the scales at 200 pounds, and Sorber, reaching nearly five feet 12 inches skyward and weighing approximately 190 pounds, hauled Simms into court on charges of assault and disorderly conduct. The youth, they told Judge McMahon, was one of a group whom they dispersed at Fourth and O streets, northwest, around midnight, Monday. This individual, they testified, ripped out an oath and ran. The Officers' Charges The policemen declared they chased Simms up New Jersey avenue to R street and out R to Marion street, where he turned and ran into a vestibule of one of the houses. When they entered the doorway, they said, Simms jumped them and struck each of them on the shoulder. Simms, upon taking the stand, told the court that he was crossing R street at Seventi, on his way home when the two officers in a Ford sedan ran their car up to him and swore an inference that he should remove his shadowy presence from the immediate pathway of their machine. Since he felt that he was in a pedestrian's aera, and that he had the right to proceed in front of a policeman without the feeling that he was a fugitive, Simms said he told the cops where he'd like to see them go. As these cops happened to be cops they of course took exception. They turned their car and Simms ran. Simms is Assaulted Seeking refuge in a vestibule on Marion street, Simms said, the policemen came up, forced the door and one of them struck him with a night stick. At this point Simms showed both Judge McMahon and Assistant U.S. Attorney Robert C. Bruce, who was prosecuting, two large bumps on his head. After cross-examination of the officers, the judge asked Mr. Bruce for argument. When the District Attorney, himself doubtful, said there was none, Judge McMahon said, "Both charges in this case are dismissed." DIVORCE SUITS ARE DISMISSED The suit of Frederick A. Seeney for an absolute divorce from Mrs. Lela Holland Seeney was dismissed by Justice Peyton Gordon in equity court last Thursday. The cross bill of Mrs. Seeney for a limited divorce was also dismissed. She was, however, given custody of their child, Frederick E. Seeney, aged 4. Mr. Seeney sought to prove that his wife had misconducted herself with Tiberious Doles, in whose home at No. 4518 Douglas street, northeast, they were tenants. In her cross bill Mrs. Seeney charged her husband with cruelty and non-support. Attorneys Hayes and Davis represented Mrs. Seeney. The Officers' Charges Simms is Assaulted --- BB Appoin J. HAYDEN JOHNSON IS RE-APPOINTED The judges of the District Supreme Court Tuesday reappointed Dr. J. Hayden Johnson as a member of the Board of Education of the District of Columbia. He is one of three colored members serving on a board of nine persons. Dr. Johnson is finishing his twelfth year on the board. Each member of the board is appointed for a term of three years.

BOOTLEGGER IS CAUGHT AFTER STREET CHASE Tries to Puncture Tires of Pursuing Car with Whiskey Bottles John Vivian Frye, 20 years old, 1706 T street, northwest, a chauffeur, was arrested by Precinct Detectives R. J. Barrett and W. R. Laflin, both white of the Eighth Precinct on six charges involving the prohibition act and traffic violations, Tuesday. Frye was sighted near Howard Theatre by the officers, and under suspicion was chased. The man, in a Ford touring car drove out Wilhurger street into S street, and the nwestward at a clip of forty miles an hour to Ninth, where he was overtaken. The officers told Judge John P. McMahon, at Frye's arraignment, Wednesday, that the man during the chase had thrown fifteen half-gallon jars of liquor into the street in the path of their car in an effort to puncture the tires. Frye was sentenced to ninety days straight on each of the charges of illegal possession and transporting, finned $100 or thirty days on a charge of reckless driving, finned $40 for breaking glass in the street, finned $5 or ten days on each of charges of failure to exhibit registration card and failure to exhibit proper signalling device. BOY POCKETBOOK SNATCHER. FOILED Foiled in his attempt to snatch and escape with the pocketbook of Mrs. Alberta Wilson, 2022 Second street, northwest, Monday night, 16-year-old David Bruce reposes in the House of Detention. Bruce, who told police his address was 513 Forty-seventh street, Chicago, Ill., was apprehended at Eleventh and T streets, northwest, by three young men who were sitting on the Cameron, Apartment lawn, and who chased him when their attentions were attracted by Mrs. Wilson's scream.

The Mount Jezreel Baptist Church, Fifth and E streets, southeast, facing the fifth precinct station reports the entrance of the robbers two weeks ago and a second visit last Friday night.

Brooks' study to the basement and there forced it with a crowbar. No money, however, was to be found in the safe, and papers of the church superintendent were scattered about and left.

For much longer it has not earned a reasonable return on the value of its properties, legally established. Entitled unquestionably to relief it has postponed applying for it, hoping that traffic losses, due to widespread use of private automobiles, would end. Instead, these losses have continued. Last September the Directors decided they could no longer refrain from applying for higher fares, without injustice to the stockholders. That decision was published generally and repeated references were made to it at public hearings. Before a fare increase application could be filed, however, it became evident that an agreement to merge the three principal Washington transportation companies, might be reached. Realizing the great possibilities for economies and improved service in a merged company, the Directors postponed the fare application, believing the advantages of a merged company were so manifest that approval of the merger plan by the Public Utilities Commission and Congress would be forthcoming. A merger plan was worked out; it was approved by the stockholders, and, with some changes, endorsed by the Public Utilities Commission. The House District Committee reported it favorably, but Congress, nearing its end, took no action before adjournment. Congress does not meet again until December. The value of our property in the District, used for public service, has been fixed by the courts at over $26,000,000. In 1927 our earnings, over and above operating expenses and taxes, were considerably less than 4 per cent on that value. The United States Supreme Court has held that less than a 7 per cent return on fair value is confiscatory. Commissions and courts have held that $7 \frac{1}{2} $ per cent to 8 per cent is a reasonable return for utilities. To enable us to earn such a return would require approximately a flat fare of 10 cents. We are very much disinclined to ask for a greater increase over existing fares than is necessary to take care of the present urgent situation, but we are convinced that we should no longer delay seeking necessary relief. An application, therefore, has been filed with the Public Utilities Commission asking a straight fare of 8 cents cash, with an alternative suggestion that it may rather direct us to establish a 10 cent cash fare with 4 tokens for 30 cents. There is a provision in the merger agreement that existing fares would not be raised for at least a year after it became effective. There was and is also present in the minds of those concerned, a very well defined hope that the economies and the improved service, only possible with a merged system, would prevent any increase in fare for a much longer time. The management of this company regrets, because of the postponement of a merger, it must ask for an increase now. It is proud of the esteem in which it is held by thousands. It believes a majority of its patrons know that it has dealt reasonably, honorably and fairly throughout a long history. Public esteem is an asset of the highest value, but, confronted with the hard facts stated, the company cannot continue to jeopardize the investment and income of thousands of stockholders through failure to seek relief, to which it is legally and morally entitled. There are 26 cities of over 100,000 population in the United States where a 10 cent fare is charged. They are Albany, Atlanta, Boston, Bridgeport, Buffalo, Cambridge, Cincinnati, Des Moines, Fall River, Fort Worth, Grand Rapids, Hartford, Houston, Lowell, New Bedford, New Haven, Norfolk, Omaha, Pittsburgh, Salt Lake City, San Antonio, Seattle, Springfield, Syracuse, Toledo and Worcester. No individual or corporation owns as much as 5 per cent of the Capital Traction Company's stock. The bulk of it belongs to Washington men and women, who depend largely upon it for their living. The directors of the company are merely trustees for the stockholders. They believe the public generally, when they become familiar with conditions, will be willing to pay the moderate increase in fare requested. record the availability and fitness for such a public career for one who has already rendered valuable service, in the congressional organization in Washington.

Whiting "Is not life more than meat, and the body more than raiment?"—Matthew 6:25. Christ, in his memorable sermon on the mount, sets forth a truth in the text which should do much toward alleviating our fears in regard to material needs. He admonishes us not to be over anxious or fearfully concerned about food and raiment; for God, who is our creator and father, has given life for a nobler purpose than for the two mentioned necessities. Shall not he who has formed the body so wonderfully and made such a display of power and goodness, see that it is properly protected and clothed? He who with omnipotence breathed into it the breath of life, will surely follow up the blessing and confer the smaller favor by making provisions for the sustenance of the same. Therefore, the question which should be uppermost in our minds is, "For what purpose are we created?" This purpose is clearly stated in the scriptures, Isaiah 43:7, "Even every one that is called by my name, for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him yea, I have made him." Matthew 5:16, "Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your father which is in heaven." Hence, we can see that the chief end of man is to glorify God. If we lose sight of self and conscientiously strive to carry out the purpose for which we were created, we will find the hand of Providence bountifully supplying all of our needs and with a heart of gratitude, we will be compelled to say, "What shall I render unto the Lord for all of his benefits?" "But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness and all these things shall be added unto you?" The automobile was not made primarily to consume gasoline, but as a conveyance, and as long as it pices of the W.M.M. Society. Rev. George A. Fisher, rector of St. Monica Episcopal Church, will deliver a special missionary address at this service. PEOPLE'S CONGREGATIONAL .CHURCH Rev. A. F.

Brooks These articles are written in response to the article by Edgar M. Grey, entitled, "Black White List and White Black List," appearing in the April 14 issue of the New York News; and to the reproduction of the same point of view by W. E. B. Dubois in his June issue of the Crisis. These views held that William Lloyd Garrison, Abraham Lincoln, Frederick Douglass, and John Brown were men to be classed with Clarence Darrow as free-thinkers. WAS ABRAHAM LINCOLN A CHRISTIAN? According to the Holy Scriptures, he is a Christian who has the spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ. (Romans 8:9, John 13:35) Most Christians are members of some Christian church, but some Christians, for one reason or another belong to no Christian organization, whatever. A century ago, there were, in this country, scores and hundreds of Christian slaves without church relationship, because they had not the consent of their masters to unite with the church of their choice. Some Christians are without church relationship because they question their own fitness to occupy a place at the Table of the Lord, while others, truly converted in the days of their childhood, were hindered from joining the church by elderly persons, who have no faith in "the religion of children." Even in the time of Christ's earthly ministry, all believers in Christ were not in any one organized body. (Luke 9:49-50). However, the apostolic order is, first the new life in Christ Jesus, followed immediately by church-membership. (Acts 2:41-42). During all the Christian centuries, the organized Christian forces of the world, have not been entirely free from men and measures, which are out of harmony with their own professions, and at war with the will and purpose of the Great Head of the Church. (John 6:70; Acts 8:1-23; 5:1-11; Revelation 2:14-15. For this reason in particular some Christians have remained unchurched, while others, true and heroic, though constituting a mere minority, yet outstanding like the prophets of old, have carried on a holy warfare within the church for the overthrow of error and untruth, of injustice, and all manner of wrong and wickedness. But how shall we characterize men, who, from love for God, love for truth and justice, stand aloof from the church, when the church itself has departed from the teachings and the spirit of the Master? Shall we group them with scotters and infidels? Shall we enroll them with that school of atheists who despise all forms of religion, good and bad? God forbid. In making these observations, I have had in mind the fact that Abraham Lincoln, America's first mytered President, was not a member of a Christian church. But no man can justly deny that Abraham Lincoln possessed the spirit of the Lord Jesus Christ; that to him the word of God was martyred President, was not a stranger to holy meditation and prayer. In fine, Abraham Lincoln possessed the spiritual elements, which constitute one a true follower of the Lord Jesus Christ. The world thinks of Abraham Lincoln as the great chieftain who saved the Government of the United States of America from extinction. The children of America's once enslaved people think of him as the great emancipator Lincoln's act of emancipation, be it ever remembered, was born a covenant which Abraham Lincoln made with his God, and the spirit of prayer was in his soul as he wrote these concluding words: "And upon this act, sincerely believed to be an act of justice, warranted by the Constitution, upon military necessity, I invoke the considerate judgment of mankind and the gracious favor of Almighty God." Equally religious was his famous Gettysburg speech, for uppermost in his heart was the desire "that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom—and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth." But if you would know the heart of Lincoln read his second inaugural address. No one saw more clearly than he did the hand of God in the war between the states. In that address he called attention to the fact that the North and the South read the same Bible, prayed to the same God, and each alike invoked the aid of God against the other, then he added these words: "It may seem strange that any men should dare to ask a just God's assistance in wringing their bread from the sweat of other men's faces. But let us judge not, that we be not judged. The prayers of both could not be answered; that of neither has been answered fully. The Almighty has his own purposes. 'Woe unto the world because of offenses, for it must needs be that offenses come; but woe to that man by whom the offense cometh.' If we shall suppose that American slavery is one of those offenses, which, in the providence of God, must needs come, but which, having continued through His appointed time, He now wills to remove, and that He gives both North and South this terrible war, as the woe due to those by whom the offense came, shall we discern therein any departure from those divine attributes which the believers in a liv- To class this man, Abrham Lincoln, who thought and spoke in the very language of the Holy Scriptures, this believer in God, this man of fervent prayer, this holy seer, with men who question the existence of God, who ridicule the Bible, and scoff at prayer, to my mind, is itself one of the offenses that needs must come, but woe to the reputation for accuracy of the publicist, who thus does violence to the deeds and character of one of the noblest men that ever lived. e your hail p-to-date Make y up- Make your hair look up-to-date!

Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. Yet, if God wills that it continue until all the wealth pilled by the bondsman's two hundred and fifty years of unrequitted toil shall be paid by another drawn with the sword, as it was said three thousand years ago, so still it must be said. The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether." It is worthy of remark, that in less than six weeks after Lincoln's second inaugural address the war between the states was at an end, and four millions of former slaves were in the ecstacies of joy, because of their newly acquired freedom, for the Lord God omnipotent had answered prayer, in a manner that gave satisfaction to all whose hearts were right with God.

OUR CHURCHES MUST FEEL Proud of the fact that criminals have broken into some dozen of them, despite the. fact’ that they took material things away instead of ‘spiritual. ‘There is some strong association about sacred things that should induce our church officials to believe that the “Giver of every good and perfect gift” is capable of protecting His own. —_—+-___ ‘THE NEED OF A THIRD PARTY Now that the Republican nation- 8] convention has selected as stan- dsrd beprers two men who repre- sent business and politics backed ‘by a platform that offers no defi- nite plan for the solution of the major problems of the masses of {he people, and that the Demo- etatic convention promises to be equally cut and dried in preserv- ing conditions as they are, only under other candidates, it behooves the groups which have suffered and do suffer and to whom no relief is promised, to organize in their own interests. Since the days of Andrew Jack- ton, the plain people have steadily lost direct control of the machin- ery of their government. Prior to ‘the Civil, War, the southern slave- ocracy managed affairs in their own narrow and tyrannical interests, During that conflict and subsequent to it, the manufacturing interests grew into power through war con- tracts and the protection of the 4th Amendment which gaye them federal recognition. Under the leadership of Mark Hanna and the presidency of William McKinley, who had made prosperity certain by the tariff bill which bore his name, corporations developed into the new super-government and fixed their power by shifting to the gold standard without making any Provision for the creditors who be- came liable to repay in expensive money. Coincident with these changes, the nation entered upon what has become an imperial policy, despite the wordy protests from its de- fenders. In the recent convention, delegates were provided for from the “territorial possessions of the United States.” Each of the changes in the con. trol of our government has left open, it is true, opportunities: for ruthless men to join the dominant and controlling groups, but each change has likewise shut out from Participation and control more and more of the masses of the people. Today, the interests of such basic and fundamental groups as labor both skilled and unskilled, agricul ture, the coal industry, and the disfranchised and exploited Negro are either openly neglected or sc provided for as to create no defi nite contract with ‘the voters. Business, however, knows both by its ability to direct and to con. trol legislation through its organ- ized power, and by the character and past experience of the candi- dates, that its interests will be protected and advanced. Of course it is short-sighted policy, because business depends upon the consum- ing ability of those unrepresented and unconsidered groups. But business has become so accustomed to buying both goods and services of all kinds, that it has come to think of everything, even its own Prosperity, as purchasable, and every kind of service, even wisdom and justice, as at the command of magic wand. “aoe social group must first of al! lock after its own interest, is the lesson which past political his- fiery teaches, end the refusal of t) dominating interests to even en- tertain the pleas of the neglected groups, makes the organization of a new party an act of simple pro- tection. Certainly, the evidence of, and repeated claims for, a prosperity which the masses do not enjoy, should arouse enlightened self-in- terest. Surely, the expenditure of the unthinkable sum of four bil- lions for governmental purposes, the accumulation of almost a half billion dollars of surplus from unnecessary taxation always passed on to the ultimate consumer, and the ease with which legislation beneficial to dominant interests has been enacted while laws sought by lesser forces, even with greater numbers affected, invariably re- quire so much hair splitting dis- cussion—then being seldom sus- tained by the courts—ought to de- velop initiative and aggressive convictions in leaders capable of focussing the enthusiastic support of a constructive platform for a new American political party. a HAITI, AMERICAN JUSTICE BETRAYED Henry Wickham Stead, former editor of the London Times, wrote, last December, “Englishmen used to say, ‘My country, right or wrong.’ ‘They say it no longer, or, at least a strong and influential body of them understand and have come to feel that the interdepend- ence of peoples is now so marked that a criminally selfish nation would stand in the same relation- ship to the other peoples of the world as a bandit stands to civi- lized society. They identify the supreme interests of their country with those of international right- eousness.” Be that as it may for England, with its long experience in exploit- ing subjugated peoples, the United States has developed no such “strong and influential body” of citizens who feel that way about our imperial policy, especially with r.spect to the islands in the Carib- bean, of which Haiti is one suffer- ing most from unwarranted occu- pation, unjust control, tyrannical administration, and greedy exploi- tation, ‘The descendents of those same black people who saved America at the dawn of the last century from the schemes of Napoleon, by de- feating Le Clerc, his brother-in- lw, and thus causing the emperor to sell Louisiana to the United States, now live under a triple gov- ernment imposed by our military occupation: first, their own native officials who are inefficient figure- heads; next, treaty officials, made up of the American high commis- sioner, the receiver of customs, and the financial adviser; and, third, the United States marines who hold high and low officers’ posts in the constabulary. The first can not. function except at the whim of the Americans, the second is inefficient and the third is indifferent to the wishes of the natives and to the treaty pledges made to do justice to a free people and a sovereign. nation. Under the mixed control of the navy, the marines, the constabulary and the civil officials, there is no placing of responsibility for the: maladministration which’ is every- where manifest. There is no General Leonard Wood, and hence no Cuba. The People are black and speak a ‘French dialect, hence they are treated as animals or slaves. The. “corvee” system is used to get. work done on roads by compulsory’ abor. Punishment is savage and fiendish following trials in courts where the whole procedure is for- eign to the language, customs, and habits of the natives; water treat- ment, the application of red hot. machetes, and shooting Prisoners who have been given an apparent opportunity to escape, characterizes the relations of the police who are headed by promoted marines serv- ing like petty tyrants at or inflated salaries, The system of “provost courts” makes anything “an offense against the military government,” while the censorship of the press goes so far as to suppress such words as “general,” “national,” and “revo- lution”; and such phrases as “free- dom of speech” and “freedom of thought” may not be copied even from publications printed in Santo Domingo or the United ates ‘More than three thousand Haitians THE LETTER BOX CLEVELAND SCHOOL To the Editor: . In ‘one of your recent is- sues, I noticed a letter from a reader relative to changing the name of the Grover Cleveland School to Wilson Bruce Evans School. The only motive I can see for the change is that President Cleveland, after whom the school is named, was a Democrat. If that is the reader's idea, then I should think he should find an- other reason, for President Cleve- land, regardless of his party affili- ation, ranks with such men as Grant and Sumner. I dare say had it not been for President Cleve- land and President Roosevelt, while the latter was chairman. of the U. S. Civil Service Commission, our girls would not have found employment in the Bureau of En- graving and Printing as soon 4 they did. _ The time has come when the old- time Negro with his Republican party stickuitiveness is partly fad- ing out and the day when the Ne- gro is thinking for himself. He knows now that the Republican party did not set his race free, nor did the Republican party begin the Civil War for the freedom of the Negro. He knows that until he handles his ballot so.as to make the various political parties reck- on with him as they do with the Italian, the Jew and other races, he cannot hope for much under any party. ‘The day of recognizing our po- litical faith by the color of our skin, has gone and the Negro must recognize the MAN for office and not the party with which he is identified. It is true our race has gotten but little from the Demo- crats, but when we count the votes for them from us, have we not received more value than we have given? Compare the Taft, Harding and Coolidge administrations with the Cleveland and Wilson ones in pro- portion to the number of votes. What will be the answer? While there is nothing against the naming of a school for Dr. Wilson Bruce Evans, there is some- thing against the tearing down of the name of Grover Cleveland. Certainly if a public school can be named after Dr. John R. Francis, there should be one for Dr. Wilson Bruce Evans, but before we come to this we should consider the pioneers such as William H. Lee, St Pope and many others who served for the educating of our youth without compensation di- rectly or indirectly. This should have been done before the Francis Junior High School was named. A Washingtonian since*birth LIFE AFTER DEATH To the Editor: For the benefit of the party writing on the editorial page of the Tribune of Friday, June 15, under the caption, “Science Talks of a Life after Death,” I am mind- ed to say that we waste just so much time when we ask the opin- ion of scientific talent about a mat- ter that does not fall under any branch of science. When you want to know the truth about the “Life After Death,” question, seek the Bible; for it’ is God’s word, writ- ten under inspiration; and when correctly translated and properly interpreted, will teach you all things concerning God's great plan of redemption and restoration of the human race. Don't be satisfied to let the clergymen read the Bible for you. Read it for yourself and believe it for the very Word's sake. And, if you will read the Bible and he- lieve what you read, you cannot help but come to a knowledge of the truth and the truth will make you free—free from error and de- lusion; free from the lies of Satan and his representations on earth.

A Trick Sentence Edward Lawson of 2717 Eleventh street, northwest, made a sentence of fifty double-letter words. It ‘could have been a longer sentence had he written every word that has a double-letter in it. The sen- tence follows: “Little Miss Brook's spelling bee follows: tree, green, tall, yellow soon, puppy, playfully, differently, weekly, meet, Hattie, Sally, Har- ris, attend, address, neetsfoot, foot- ball, heed, hill, slippery, crass, call, small, fall, summer, daddy, broom sweep, well, pretty, flapper, little thirteen, fourteen, fifteen, sixteen seventeen, eighteen, nineteen, kit ten, kettle, puddle, puzzle, croon.” At first. glance this sentence seems perfect. But we must beat in mind that a “spelling bee” is not a “list of words” but that it is a game in which words are spelled His sentence should have at least implied that idea. His sentence should have read something like this: “The words used in little Miss Brook's spelling bee, ete.’ Without the word “words” the sentence is not good. Edward was not competing for ® prize. He works at the Tri bune office, and he made a state- ment that he could make a sentence with more than forty words in it He did make a sentence which we think is clever.

CATHOLIC NEWS By Francis Spriggs The Council Review Players, which had been disbanded by its manager last week until early fall, was called back by popular demand for a reproduction of James Halleck Reid's drama, "The Confession." This play was so well rendered at St. Patrick Hall on June 5, that Monsignor Thomas and Rev. Francis Hurney of St. Patrick Church, and the Rev. Romeo of St. Cyprian's Church were loud in their praise of the Players' work. Rev. Father Murphy, of the Holy Redeemer Church, has placed his church hall at the disposal of the club. The drama will be presented there on Sunday evening, July 8, at 7 o'clock. The dedication of the Christ Child home at Bely Alton, Md., last Sunday was postponed.

Lewis was driving the Dodge touring car of James R. Chichester, 1432 Corcoran street, whom he had arrested a few minutes before the collision and his own subsequent arrest. He declared that James Chichester and a brother, Claude, both of whom he had arrested on respective charges of operating without a permit, and driving while drunk, were, when he prehended them, unfit to be behind the wheel of the car. The policeman then proceeded to drive the automobile himself. En route to the station house, the car driven by Lewis collided with an auto belonging to Mrs. Margaret Pendleton, white, of Stoneleigh Court and driven by Alvan B. Truatt, 1901 L street, northwest. The case against Claude Chichester was nolled prosec. Preliminary hearing of Lewis' case was continued to today (Friday). GETS 180 DAYS FOR STEALING PENNIES George Brown, a carpenter, was sentenced by Judge John P. McMahon to serve 180 days on a charge of larceny following his alleged theft of money boxes from daily newspaper racks. Brown was taken into custody, Sunday night, by Policeman Browning, of the First Precinct, when he was identified by Hyman Aronsen, white, newspaper agent, as the same man whom he attempted to apprehend, on June 18, following the former's alleged theft of the money receptacle from a rack at Seventh and G streets; northwest. Aronsen said he caught Brown in the act of wrenching the cup from its place, but when he tussled with him the man threw him off and escaped. Sunday night, Aronsen told the court he saw Brown about to do the same thing at Ninth and E streets. This time, he declared, he sought out an officer and had the man arrested. While Brown was searched he was found to be in possession of a jimmy wrench and a pair of plyers. When questioned Brown told the court that he had never seen Aronsen before, and had found the tools at Georgia avenue and Barry place, an hour before. BEACON LODGE ELECTS EDWARD J.

These principles have been further emphasized in their relation to the work of the school and every practical opportunity has been utilized to make this work very clear. It is believed that such study makes very clear to the student the meaning of these qualities so necessary to success in life. 3. The desire for a closer contact with business has lead to the desire to establish a fund to open an exchange for the graduates and students of the school to display and sell their products as a means or further publicity and to make an opening for further employment for the students. The teachers 36 have worked most seriously to make this dream a reality. During the year they have given a tournament, a rummage sale, a better baby contest and a hope chest contest. In addition they have donated to the cause. As a result, they have a fund of $1015.49 to start the exchange next year.

It may be of interest to add that Mrs. Thomas opened the cafeteria there and has placed it on a fine financial basis. Main 36 DON'T TOLERATE A LEAKY ROOF Easy Terms NEGROES BATTLE FOR APPOINTMENT ters until a national committeeman is chosen. Perry W. Howard, the Republican national committeeman for Mississippi, cancelled a motor trip from Kansas City in order to be here for the meeting. He came from Chicago by train. Others who were here last week included N. Q. McGill, of Chicago, and his brother S. D. McGill, of Jacksonville, Fla., who was elected a delegate on the Bean faction which was not seated; Roscoe C. Simmons of Chicago, Alon B. Holsey of Tuskegee Institute, Ala., and Claude A. Barnett, of Chicago. Campaign Manager The meeting of the special committee and the selection of an executive committee of the national committee were mere incidents. What colored Republicans are interested in mostly at this time is the selection of one of them to handle the colored end of the campaign. The struggle for this post is desperate. There are three distinct groups fighting to control the selection. One is headed by Robert Russa Moton, principal of Tuskegee Institute, successor of the late Booker T. Washington. He is represented here by Mr. Holsey and Mr. Barnett. This group would have Homer G. Phillips, an attorney, of St. Louis, Mo., to manage the colored end of the campaign. Mr. Holsey and Mr. Barnett conferred with Dr. Work's secretary last Monday. Hawkins Named The second group is headed by Emmett J. Scott, secretary-treasurer of Howard University. He is proposing John R. Hawkins, president of the Prudential Bank, who seconded the nomination of Mr. Hoover in Kansas City, to head the colored end of the campaign. Mr. Hawkins has conferred with Dr. Work, outlining the policy he would follow if he should be selected. The third group is led by Mr. Howard. He denies that he is seeking the post for himself. He says that by virtue of being a member of the national committee, he is a member of the campaign committee, the national committee having charge of the entire campaign. Howard's Plan Mr. Howard says that he favors a program that would include prominent party workers in every section. Besides those who would be in charge of eastern and western headquarters, he would have an advisory committee and would make use of the services of such men, he states, as Robert R. Church of Memphis, Robert L. Vann of Pittsburgh, William H. Lewis of Boston, Dr. Scott, Mr. Hawkins, Robert S. Abbott of Chicago, S. D. McGill of Jacksonville, Charles H. Calloway of Kansas City, Charles E. Mitchell of Institute, W. Va., Fred R. Moore and George W. Harris of New York, Thomas W. Fleming of Cleveland, Dr. J. H. P. Westbrook of Denver, W. T. Andrews of Baltimore, Phil Dabney of Cincinnati, Rev. Cassius Ward of Boston, Oliver Randolph of Newark, Dr. W. G. Alexander of Orange, N.J., Oscar De Priest of Chicago, Charles H. Vena of Toledo, J. Finley Wilson and others. Church Mentioned There is one man mentioned in connection with the work who is not seeking the job. He is Mr. Church. It is believed that he would accept if it were offered him by Dr. Work. At a conference he here in December when the national committee was in session for the purpose of selecting someone for this work, Mr. Church was agreed upon. At that time he declined, his reason being that those who offered him the place were not in position to give it. Mr. Church is in Memphis. He has not been here since the Republican national convention. SEEKS SEPARATE MAINTENANCE Mrs. Ada Bell, 4 Twelve-and-One-Half street, southeast, laet Saturday filed suit in the District Supreme Court against her husband, Raymond Bell, 2409 Nichols avenue, southeast, for persevere maintenance and custody of their two children, James Igniatus, aged 14, and Raymond Alfonso, aged 11. She charges that her husband deserted her in February, 1921. She placed their two children in St. Joseph's Industrial School, Clayton, Del., she says, upon his promise that he would meet their expenses. He has refused, she declares, and the school is now owed two hundred dollars. Her husband is an unskilled laborer in the Government Printing Office, she says, and earns $125 a month.

Nevertheless we'll concede, that Georgie knows his cartridges. ! eat : ‘At that, let’s throw a bouquet in the way of Manager George Ford, the Black Sox boss. He car- ried the 1928 edition of “Simon- ites” through a streak of wins, to date unparalleled by a local nine, Last Monday, Harry Jackson, golier, par, excellence, was right. nd when “The Jack” is right, he’s rightly right. His dizzy pace of 29 strokes over 9 holes of the Lin- coln Memorial Links is quite an achievement. Down on the Poto- mac they say, “The Jack,” when in form, is unbeatable. We second the motion. “There is plenty of room at the top provided you push everything up there off,” so sayeth the good Leo P. Flynn_as he helps. Johnny Risko shove George Godfrey from the top rung of the pugilistic lad ler. Everything is silent as the pro- yerbial sphinx on Reservoir Hill. The feetball sitchwayshun has just about escaped the eyes of the pub- ic. ‘Might we ask—who will be How- ard University’s head coach of foot- ball next fall? ‘And we challenge any standard bearer to make reply—even Doc. The Treasury shortstop was hav- ing. hectic afternoon handling the hit in his direction when one ardent rooter asked, “What are you doing out there ?” He answered, qm Spine fe play bell” “Thanks,” h replied, “I knew you were try- ing to do'gomething—but I didn’t know it was playing ball.” “Fats” Hall, the eminent loaded goed of the 1926 Bison machine, sojourning at the Students Army Heavy says his chief complaint is to be made against the “potato de- tail,” when he'll be made to “peel the irish” for two whole days. ‘Look at that boy's motion. Youll notice we call attention to the mo- tion, ‘cause you can't see the ball. ‘Why Cook Nickens, the cannon- ball artist of the Washington Black Sox, is this year, faster than ever. His last two ‘full games have been shutout affairs. In 14 innings the has fanned 24 batters. Admiral Frazier was delivering a lecture to his mates when some- one stated that the team would play better if they got harmony on it Thinking it meant a player, be sai “Well, find out what shop be works LOCAL STAR DOES LINCOLN COURSE IN 29 Playing a steady iron game and Putting with deadly accuracy, Har. ry Jackson, prominent local golf exponent, ‘traversed the Lincoln Memorial Golf Links with a card of 29, one stroke over par, last Monday afternoon. ‘The LincoIn Memorial Course, called such because of its. situa- tion in the shadow of the memo- rium to the great emancipator, is without a single water or sand-trap hazard, but nevertheless it is ex- ceptionally difficult. Its sand greens make the short game of the most capable golfers an uncertain task. Balls continually roll off line or strokes are too ‘strong or weak. Jackson, even with the sensa- tional! score of 29 deserved a bet- ter fate, On the third’ hole his Putt for a par 3 hung on the lip of the cup, forcing him to chal is first 4 of the round. The short fourth hole, on which “The Jack” has. been -taking only 3 strokes, proved another disappointment when his usually accurate mashie shot ended in a bad ick to the it. Two birdies, however, Helped the former national champion to no little extent. On the second hole, 165 yards long, Jackson holed out in 2, and on. the 251 yard eighth, he sank a neat 3 from off the edge of the green. Leaving the sixth tee where he had just gotten his third and last 4 of the round, Jackson learned that he needed three straight 3's for a card of 29, His card fol- seat Hole 128456789 Jackson... 3244343 3 329 Par..:.... 8833333 4 3—28 ARLINGTON’S ENTRY IS STRONG AND BALANCED The Arlington Athletics, with their vietoties recently over the Scrappy Columbia Cub outfit and the plugging.

(Special to the Tribune)—Despite the fact that George Godfrey, the “Shadow of Leiperville,” ‘apparently won 5 and held even in 2 rounds of the sched: ‘uled 10-round battle, here Wednesday night, his opponent, ‘Johnny Risko, Cleveland baker, was declared the winner. ‘The fight was a slap-bang affair all the way with the two heavies, both relentless. punchers, delivering body pun- ‘ishment that would test the most sterling pug.

"Scrip Lee, ace hurler of the Ori- entals, opposed Frazier on the mound but he had nothing new or geciting for the village boys for ‘they shot his slants to all, parts ‘of the lot, including a double and priple by Jackson and Humphreys. © In the second game Colesville ‘continued its winning march, by ‘defeating Brightwood A.C. by score of 7-6. Ralph Seaton was sent /to the rubber and hurled a wonder- ful game. The errors from his ‘mates gave Brightwood a lead at the start, but the Tigers broke the ice in the sixth with two gone, and the bases loaded. With the latter leading 6-3, Sea- ton hit a two-base hit to right field, then went to third on an overthrow, later stealing home with the winning run. Throughout, the a:mainder of the game, he held the losers safe. WASH. BLACK SOX WIN TWO MORE The Washington Black Sox won both ends of the twin bill with the Myrtle A.C., at.

So much, in fact, that it would almost lead up to believe a fighter is doomed to failure, unless he dis- plays this trait. John L., Sullivan, McGovern, Ketchel and Dempsey were consid- ered the most outstanding expo- nents of this art. Their slashing offense was their defense and the fury of their attack earried them to victories over opponents more skilled "in ringeraft than. them- selves. Many of the game’s greatest performers, however, were of an entirely different temperament, and while they possibly did not score théir wins as quickly, their work was equally effective. Bob Fitzsimmons, Joe Choynski, Peter Maher, Tommy Ryan, Benny Leonard, Johnny Kilbane, Mike Gibbons, Packey McFarland all rank high and were anything but Fille Poslibly the fact that “Sunny” Jim Williams wears a perpetual smile in the ring and out, has caused many folks to wonder if a boxer can be just as effective, ot serious, without the usual deter. mined look or habitual scowl. When “Sunny” first went to Aus. tralia, where he took part in some 35 battles in a course of two years the folks were at first under the impression he was too good na. tured and polite to take the rough and ready opposition at hand However, once inside the hemp Williams’ convinced them the slo: gan, “Service with a smile,” wa: originated by him. | He took the husky, hard hitting and rough cus tomers in hand and without violat. ing the rules of the game, soot slowed them from a gallop’ dowr to a slow canter.

THEATRICAL REPUBLIC THEATRE Pola Negri will appear in her latest picture, "Three Sinners," at the Republic on Sunday, Monday and Tuesday, July 1, 2, and 3. "Three Sinners" is the story of three people whose sins found them out. Penance that could not win salvation, condemned to a life worse than death, and then a new road to happiness. She was a wife and mother—and then, by one swift stroke of fate, an outcast. Supporting Miss Negri in the leading role is Warner Baxter. The star of "Underworld." And what a hit he made. Now see him it, his latest starring picture, "The Showdown." Since he made his first picture, George Bancroft has become a star. "The Showdown" will be shown at the Republic on Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, July 4, 5, 6 and 7. On Wednesday, July 4th, the show will start at 12 o'clock noon. "The Showdown" is a powerful drama of a man who had everything within his grasp then deliberately throws it away, yet gaining something bigger in life for it. Playing opposite Bancroft in "The Showdown" are Evelyn Brent, Neil Hamilton and Fred Kohler. On the Vitaphone, for the entire week, will be presented the following star acts: Frank Gaby, well known ventrilouquist in a comedy of the race track, entitled "The Tout." The ventrilouquist's dummy is dressed as a jockey. Vitaphone act number 2 is Hazel Green and Company, a hot jazz band and a girl leader. Miss Green is one of the best feminine directors and singers on the stage. Clair Omar Musser, world's foremost marimbaphonist, completes the Vitaphone bill. Musser, an accomplished musician, has invented a musical instrument that is played by himself exclusively. It is a marimbaphone with a dozen attachments that enhance its original tone and volume. BROADWAY THEATRE Walter A. Pinchback, the new manager of the Broadway Theatre, will offer the patrons of the house for Monday and Tuesday that starling new Paramount western star, Jack Luden, in a sensational, wild, whooping, western picture called "Shooting Irons." For one day only, Tuesday, last chance is offered to see that great picture, "The Hunchback of Notre Dame," with Lon Chaney taking the part of the hunchback. If you have seen it before, go and see it again, and if you have never seen it, by all means do not miss it. Wednesday and Thursday, another Paramount star, Fred. Thompson, will be seen in a story familiar to every adult and child, "Jesse James." For Friday and Saturday, that captivating piece of feminine beauty, Sally O'Neill, will appear in a story of love, prize fights and gang fights in the "Gas House" district. Tuesday is surprise prize night; Thursday is talent night, and Saturday night is country store. On Sunday from 7 until 10 there will be an orchestra in attendance. LINCOLN THEATRE "The Silver Slave," starring Irene Rich, is the Warner Brothers' production, which comes to the Lincoln Theatre, with full Vitaphone accompaniment, Sunday, Monday and Tuesday. This is a comedy-drama of modern life, a romance portraying the conflict between a mother and daughter in the affairs of the heart. It was only after her mother had won away from her all suitors of money and years, that the chagrined daughter discovered that her mother had done it with the sole idea of saving her from becoming another "silver slave." The cast includes Holmes Herbert as the banished lover of the mother's youth, and John Miljan, who plays a rich young man-about-town. Carrol Nye acts as the young lover, who finally wins the flapper. Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday only, the Fox Movietone News will be shown. You hear as well as see this sensational and amazing novelty. A new kind of underworld—that of a large city's populous and mysterious Chinatown—furnishes the background of "The Hawk's Nest," starring Milton Sills, which will be shown at the Lincoln Theatre, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Sills is supported by Doris Kenyon, Montague Love, and Mitchell Lewis. The Vitaphone presentations for the week will be "The Six Original Brown Brothers," saxophone jazz masters, and their orchestra; Elsie Janis, great stage and vaudeville star, in a selection of some of her war-time favorites; and Fred Ardath and Company, in a comedy playlet entitled "Men Among Men." As an added holiday attraction for Wednesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday, there will be heard and seen, on the Vitaphone, Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. On Saturday only, the opening chapter of the Universal serial, "The Scarlet Arrow," will be shown. GRADUATING EXERCISES OF MRS. ELLEASE TINSLEY ROBINSON'S CLASS The annual musical and graduating exercises of the pupils of Mrs. Ellease Tinsley Robinson were heartily enjoyed by the audience. Mrs. Robinson was able assisted by the Harmonious Quartette. HOWARD THEATRE This week Until Sunday Midnight — Leonard Harper's "ORIENTAL REVUE" SUBURBAN GARDENS Cedora, who appears at the Suburban Gadens Amusement Park, Fiftieth and Hayes streets, northeast, is said to be the best open-air attraction next to the Flying Sullivans that has been at the park. Tonight and Saturday night she whirls around in a gold globe on a bicycle and then on a motorcycle. The crowds seeing this act assert that it is worth the ten cents that is paid at the gate to see it. Beginning Sunday evening, two men perform an exceptionally thrilling series of acts on a high aerial apparatus. This act stays for one week with two shows, one at 7:15 and one at 10:45 p.m. HOWARD THEATRE For the week beginning Monday matinee, July 2, the musical revue, "Rarin to Go," will be seen at the Howard Theatre. This show is headed by a large and popular cast, including Troy Brown and Onnie Jones, Grace Rector, Ann Washington and Paul Weakley, Washington's own tap dancer, and last but not least, a large, fast-stepping chorus of beauties. On the screen for Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday will be shown "Baby Mine." It is the new costarring vehicle of Karl Dane and George K. Arthur, comical heroes of "Rookies." "Baby Mine" was one of the dramatic sensations of the decade, ran months on Broadway and played in almost every city in the world. Dane and Arthur appear as two college "rah-rah" boys who find themselves engulfed in comical troubles as the result of love affairs and a stolen baby. Charlotte Greenwood, of stage fame, plays the feminine role. The story of "The Patsy", which will be shown Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, is known to everyone who has seen the stage play, and has deviated only slightly in the film version. Suffice it to say that it is a tale of a true-to-life American family—father, mother, and two daughters—and their adventures in the fields of matrimony et cetera. As the embarrassed flapper who seeks to win her sister's beaux by developing her personality via the correspondence course route, Miss Davies is ideally cast.

PINCHBACK, local theatre man, returns to city. public, for he has served as manager of the Republic, Howard and Lincoln Theatres, hence his ability and square dealings are known to most everyone. He enjoys a reputation of being one of the best picture men in the country and the patrons of Broadway, as well as the public in general, can look forward to seeing the house offer the best pictures produced. In talking with Mr. Pinchback, we were informed that for the present he would have to play out the pictures that have been bought but later on the public will be able to see all the best pictures at the Broadway. He has adopted a slogan, "If it's good we will show it." For the last eight months Mr. Pinchback has been managing the Royal Theatre, Baltimore, Md., for the Lichtman interests and when that house closed he received many offers from large houses throughout the country, but Washington being his home and the fact that the management of the house is turned over to him completely, caused him to decide to come here.

MORE SOVIET SHAKE-UPS The old saying that severity of punishment does not deter crime seems borne out in soviet Russia. Official graft has been promptly punished by death for years. In fact, not only grafters but those suspected of graft, and their relatives and friends, have been made to pay dearly. Yet there continues to be more talk of graft, charges of graft and punishment for graft in Russia than anywhere else.—The Pathfinder. WHO SAID: "ALL THAT GLITTERS IS NOT GOLD." This saying, in one form or other, is very old. It was used by both Chaucer and Cervantes before it was used by Shakespeare in the Merchant of Venice. The saying as used by Shakespeare, however, is often misquoted. He said, "All that glisters is not gold." He employed the word "glisters" instead of "glitters."—The Pathfinder. One day when Mr. Gaddis was golfing he discovered an old lady calmly seated on the grass in the middle of the fairway. "Don't you know it's dangerous for you to sit there, madam?" he reminded her. The old lady smilingly replied: "It's all right; I'm sitting on a newspaper."—The Pathfinder. SUMMER RESORTS SARATOGA SPRINGS, N. Y. First Class Rooms 128 Washington Street ALL SANITARY Mrs. M.
