LOCAL PLAYERS
MAKE GOOD

Nearly every seat was taken last
Thursday evening at the opera
house when "A Quiet Family" and
Handy Andy" were presented un-
der the auspices of the Mems club
of St. Luke's church. 1t was q
kind of grand family reunion,
everybody in the pit" knowing
everybody stepping the boards,
and as result there was a happy
bond Of sympathy developed that
resulted in a good deal of enjoy
ment for all concerned. In "A
Quiet Family" a clever octette
worked out to everybody's satisfac-
ton the problem of "Who is Who"
as between man and wife. Here
the heaviest work fell upon Mrs.
Geo. w. johnson and A. o. Fors-
berg, and that they did well is say.

ideal Mrs. Barnaby Bibbs-
Mr.. Barnaby Bibbs agreed to that.
That is, he HAD to agree to it un-
til he fell in with Peter Parker,
who was sparkling Selma, alias Ma
thilda Bonde = and champagne.
But then his Pickering spirit of
manhood grew into a blaze, and
when he came home he started a
revolution the. likes of which would
have turned Venezuela green with
envy. Even Mrs. Bibbs fell under
the spell of that revolution, and
she had to swear everlasting obedi-
ence to her Gear and master-but
she did it with a clenched fist. and
we should not have cared to be in
the Cars shoes when the cham.
payne evaporated. The Gear him.
self felt something in the air.
and he was as happy as anybody tc
have the curtain descend when il
did. Mr.. Forsberg's work in this
difficult role was most excellent. He
was a lamb in peace and lion il
war, and he acted drunk as if il
were an everyday occurrence with
him. The rest of the company a.:
credited themselves we'll in thei1

THE NEW YORK AGE OWNED AND
CONTROLLED BY BOOKER
7. WASHINGTON.

And now II comes out that the New
York Age is practically owned and enn-
troIled by Booker Washington. and that
leading journal of the race IS no longer
the independent bulwark of the millions
of Afro-Americans, but is the official
organ and mouthpiece of the great
educator. To a certain extent this is
detrimental to the race as whole. First,
because the conditions in the North
differing so radically from the condi-
tions in the South, can be best reached
and touched by a man who not only un-
derstands those conditions, but whose
knowledge of journalism makes him a
champion of the whole people, and even
If the present editors (and we believe
them to be capable men) are of that
class, they are hampered in what they
print by reason of the fact that their
sworn allegiance to the Boss prevents
them form printing what might be, not
only their candid opinion, but the opinion
of that community. And then, too, It
would be better for the leading journal
to be indepedent, for those both for and
against a certain issue have a middle
ground, or what might be termed a
neutral spot where they both can OBJ
tain a fair hearing and it cannot be
denied that the New York Age, more
than any other race journal, nodded
public opinion, that is considering the
race as the public for 10 these many
years. =
Modern mental development has done
away with the belief that ''the King
can do no wrong" and as great as is
our races foremost man, he is not in
fallible, and with an independent paper
to recognize the standard, to unreserv-
edly voice the sentiments of all the
people a greater good would be ac-
complished and a stronger unionism be
brought about.
If it be true that the Age is no Ion
ger an independent paper. then it is
true that the first paper of the races
journals will no longer raise its voice
in righteous protest against any wrongs
heaped upon US, and until another T.
Thomas F. comes along or another
paper reaches the heights to which the
Age had gained, Afro-Americans are
without a national press champion.-The
Advocate, Portland, Oregon.
To these sentiments we say amenl-

Boar HUNTING In Brittany.

Boar hunting in Brittany is full Of
exciting incidents, and the bOars sell
dom die unavenged. for. though they
are beset by mounted hunters and
peasantry on foot armed with guns,
the Iifeblood Of many a hound Is
drawn before the savage old tusker
yields up his life. His dangerous pow
ers Of onense cease only with his last
gasp. Though the grip OF the bulldog.
the yelping Of the hounds, the din Of
horns and the cries Of the beaters may
force him from his lair to seek refuge
IN flight. that withdrawal may be set
down rather to prudence and disgust
than to any fear. When at last ne
Il brought to bay. with his back
against a rock or a tree trunk, he Is
ready to defy a host. Met In narrow
alley Of the forest, neither man nor
horse can Withstand the avalanche OF
his onset. Not infrequently the hunter
who loves his hounds WIN feel but

But Mr.. Taylor did nothing. Per
formances in his honor were given at
the Pekin Theatre in Chicago, in which
were head some excerpts from his own
works, and much that was fatuous
vulgarity. This did not move the
composer of ''Hiawatha' to objurga-
ton. He listened and was polite. And
this was a pity, for it may be declared
that among the people of color there
are gifts that, when organized and
matured, should ultimately reflect great
honor upon the race.-Felix Borowski,

Some say that ArcnimedeS mace the
Hrst wheel clock as early at 200 B. c.
Others give credit to WallingfOrd, who
lived so late as the beginning Of the
fourteenth century. But the most per-
feet water clocks were, long before tbs
latter period, furnished with wheels,
30 that the only improvement was the
substitution OF a solid body to act as
a moving weight instead Of water. It
"a not to be wondered at that the ap-
plication Of a weight to clocks as a
moving power should attract so little
attention, as water and sand were un-
doubtedly thought more convenient by
contemporary writer's. The Oldest COM
plete clock moved by weights Is prob
ably that sent by the sultan OF Turkey
10 Frederick II. in 1892. In the thir-,
teenth century many Of the church
steeples In Italy were furnished with
clocks mSyed by weights, which struck
the hours. Hele Of Nuremberg Is sup
posed to have constructed the first
watch in 800. and to him must also
be given the credit Of the spring clock.
The fusee was probably invented In
England about the end Of the six
teenth century. But it was not until
the middle Of the seventeenth century
that the pendulum was first applied to
clocks by Huyghens.
