NEGROES TO APPEAL TO KNOX.
Defend Us Against Attacks on tho Fifteenth
Amendment

Washington, Nov. 1.-THE negro race
as represented in the National Sociological
Society, now in session here, and friends
of the race will ask Attorney General
Knox within the next few days to defend
the Constitution of the United States in
the Supreme Court against the attacks
being made on the Fifteenth Amendment
A committee was appointed at the meet
ing today to make the request of the At
torney General. The movement was in
augurated by George c. Gorham. formerly
secretary of the Senate. He declared that
what the negroes wanted to do was to
take advantage of their political power.
He referred to the Alabama cases to
come up before the Supreme Court in
January, and suggested that the lawyers
in the case be asked if they desired help.
Ex-Governor Pinchback, of Louisiana,
supported Mr.. Gorham's motion. He said
he did not want to see the Alabama
cases go by default, and that he was
willing to assist in preventing 1t. The
committee is as follows: Former Repre-
sentative George H. White, of North Caro-
lima: Prof Kelly Miller, Ex-Governor
Pinchback General William Birney and
G.. c. Gorham.
Education, craftsmanship and religion
as factors in the solution of the race
problem were discussed. The principal
speaker was Rev: Dean Richmond Bah
bitt, of Brooklyn who said in part:
For white and black there is some
thing more valuable than the ballot, as
precious as that is TO Americans. and
that is full moral manhood Education is
deeply valuable, but as valuable as is the
school, there is something still more neees-
sary and that is character. which comes
from morality and religion

NAT WILLS
He and His Splendid Company Scored Grea
Hit Last Might

That ubiquitous individual, the son of
rest, more commonly denominated a
tramp, the gentleman who would rather
see the wood than to saw it, has been
frequently portrayed on the stage with
more or less merit. Usually the part is
so overdrawn that the character is ridi-
culous and boring.
How different is the character in the
person of Nat Wills in that successful
musical comedy, "A Son of Rest In
the first place the makeup OF Mr.. Wills
is in keeping with the average tramp,
one is want to see not over done Then.
too, Mr.. Wills is perfectly natural and
does not have to recourse to horse play,
outlandish gestures and nose to squeeze
the humor from the character and to
thoroughly amuse the audience.
He was a winner from the start at
the Academy of Music last evening. His
chief charm is happy manner in which
he gets off witticism after witticism He
caught the audience when he sang Had
She Only Let Me Dream an Hour More"
1t was heartily encored as were also his
paradies on "Hiawatha' and Tell Me
Pretty Maiden"
willie" the diminitive friend of the
Son of Rest, was most interesting char
acter and delighted the audience with his
clever work.
"a Son of Rest" is a musical comedy
without very much plot. but this does not
lessen the interest as the piece is full
of pretty music and good singing. Then,
too in addition to the many male mem
bers of the company. the stage for the
most part crowded with pretty girls, with
pretty costumes and splendid voices, which
are used with splendid effect
"A Son of Rest was pronounced the
success of the season 1t was splendid
production md is worthy of crowded
houses everywhere. No theatregoer should
miss it.
