SUFFRAGE LEAGUE NOTES.

Militant Ns~ England orSanizati0n
Holds Big Meeting In HaVsrhiIl.
HaVerhin, Mass.-The eighth annual
meeting Of the New England Suffrage
league recently held In this city was
by far the most interesting and help
full Of any in the history Of the organi-
ration The delegates were numerous,
and all Of the speakers seemed to be
imbued with new thought, vigor and
determination to continue the cam
paign Of sane agitation for justice &C
cording to law for the race against the
wicked. eowardly and barbarous insti-
tuition Of mob law.
The league intends to lay the matter
Of Acknowledgement and jimcrow seq
gregation before congressman and sen
ators throughout the country and ask
that they use their influence with state
and national legislators to break down
the enormous unconstitutional enact
ments against the eolored citizens Of
this country. The next steps are
work at home in congress and sena-
torial districts; vote only for such men
as pledge to do their duty toward
bringing about equal franchise and
equal justice, by which all citizens Of
this government may exercise their
God given rights
A pertinent feature Of the session
was the activity Of the women mem
bers Of the league. many Of whom de-
livered stirring addresses. A strong
set Of resolutions were adopted con-
demning the Coatesville Pa) lynching
and other recent outbreaks OF mob
violence IN which human lives were
sacrificed for the sake Of the personal
qualification OF the lawless element in
such communities.
The election Of officers resulted as
follows: william N. Trotter, president;
vice president at large. Mrs. Cravat
Simpson; first vice president, Rev. ].

THE CHORAL STUDY CLUB.

There are still vacancies in the &C
tive membership of the Choral Study
Club for soprano, alto, tenor and bass
voices.
Applications should be made to
Cecilia Johnson, Secretary, $3.50 Wa
bash avenue.
Requirements, LIST voice, End voice,
and 3rd, $I.00 tuition.
Choral practice in singing is one
of the most practical and useful ex-
periences a singer can have, as it
improves his general musicianship,
especially along the lines of sight
reading. Self-control is cultivated by
the necessity for careful listening,
for steadiness of rhythm and for
quick adjustment. To singers who
are backward in reading at sight, this
practice is invaluable.

PEKIN THEATRE.

4 2aAAAAN = ALA4EA = ~
Pekin Theatre opened on Monday
night, offering Mr. H. Dumas Hot
test Coon in Dixie Co" taking on a
whole it compares very favorably
with similar Colored Musical Organi-
cations. This being the first Road
Show to play this house, they were
greeted with a large enthusiastic
audience who were much surprised
at the meritorious performance given
by this new organization. Although
it came highly recommended. The
entire company is composed of an
! young performers who show that
they have been well drilled as we
have seen no show with more fast
and snappy action than this Compa-
ny showed the opening night ana
throughout the week Among the
principles is Harry Morgan who as
a comedian seems to have ideas and
actions of his own, without having
to resort to initiating Bert Williams
or s. H. Dudley, but doing his work
in clean and careful manner, a few
more seasons will no doubt FIT him
for one of the older shows.
Mr.. Bud Halliday doing the
straight is a new conner, who shows
that he has had experience that has
fitted him for the position. Mr.. Otis
Benson as the Bum Actor and later
as a Tramp has lots of opportunities
to cause much Investment. Another
bright member is William Juniper,
who is at his best in the Olo being
suffering with a severe cold and
hoarsness we cannot judge his talk
ing or singing, but when it came o
dancing he reminds you very much
of the late Joe Britton, of the La
dies, all are good and their voices are
far above many of the more preten-
tious shows we have seen. The stag
ing of the show gives all an sppor-
tunity TO do something, one in parti-
cular is the Plantation scene. which
is as good as the best The singing
of Old Kentucky Home by Miss
Edith Norman is nicely rendered,
backed up by splendid Chorus of
much harmony, in fact it would be
hard to find a better singing Show
than this one. The demand for seats
has been very large since the open
ing night. Two shows will be given
on Sunday night. A matinee on Sat-
urday. Manager Leon Motifs will
try to keep this show on next week
as Manager Dumas is now trying to
cancel previous dates in order to do
so.
