Is II TDEGENERATING2

The question is being asked, is
the Grand United Order of Odd
Fellows degenerating? Is this
great Negro organization which
was at one time the pride of the
colored Americans passing into a
degenerated political organiza-
ton! Men who are dead and
whose history would be a lesson to
the men in this body today, should
have been among the acrobats of
Mr.. Morris passing show. From
all indications it looks as if men
who are seeking its downfall be-
long to the graft ring of the order
One hundred thousand dollar
building that was erected in Phil
adelphia, Pa, some time ago, is to
be abandoned, and what is remain
ing of the organization will be re-
moved to this city. The Odd Eel
lows Journal, and it is to be re-
GREETED that Editor Slaughter
should have been caught in such a
trap, is to be removed to this city.
The paper is to be installed in a
small room on Fourteenth street
between T and = streets north
west, and Editor Slaughter will
return to his case in the Govern
ment Printing Office. Editor
Slaughter is not infatuated with
Philadelphia, Pa. After the meet
ing in Atlanta, Ga, the head
quarters of the organization will
be removed to this city. If re-
ports are true, a split may occur
in the Order at any time. The
question is being quietly discussed
by certain prominent members of
the organization.
Is the order degenerating is the
question that is uppermost in the
minds of the most conservative
members of the organization.

THIRTYDAYS' REDUCTION.

The management of The Bee
has made a reduction in its sub
scription until March 1st, and it
is hoped that the people will take
advantage of it. The circulation
department wants three thousand
additional subscribers, and the
subscription price has been SO re-
duced that it will reach every
body. Read the special offer In
another column of The Bee.
The Bee is the only race de-
fender in the District of Columbia
and the most fearless race advO-
cate in the United States. The
Bee is not the organ of any clique
or faction, it is the Forum of the
people and a Washington Ameri-
can.
The management wants every
body to read The Bee because it is
a real defender of the rights of
the people, irrespective of color or
condition. Just look! From now

OUR SCHOOLS.
A special committee of the
Board of Trade made a special re-
port to its body of the alleged ex-
travagance in the public schools.
The public schools, so far as the
expenditure of money is concern
ed, have never been better con-
Quoted. There is no way for any
of the Board of Educa-
tion to steal money. The board
doesn't have the handling of the
money, and the articles selected
for the schools must be first ap-
proved by the Commissioners.
Now pray, where does the extrav-
agance come in!
The Board of Education doesn't
make contracts for the purchase
of furniture. The board recon-
mends to the purchasing powers
what it wants for the schools, and
nothing more.
There cannot be found a more
honest set of men and women than
we have conducting our public
schools. The Board of Trade
ought to give itself a rest.

The Piano and Piano Study.

The piano nay be truly called the
peoples instrument, sas there IS no
other instrument that has such large
following; nor is there any from
which more people get enjoyment.
The rich, the poor, the cultured, the
uncultured, all find some inexpllcable
charm and solace in strains from this
wonderful instrument.
The Negro, no less than other ma
tionalities. has found a medium Of ex-
preston in the piano, indeed, peculiar
iy his own; and one that is insep-
arably connected with him in all
phases of his many-sided life. 1t IS
because of this great love of piano
music and the natural talent the Ne
gro has, coupled with the interest he
manifests ir all branches of the art,
that I am writing this series of arti-

to change the names of the. two

we call them Y. NJ. c. A. and

both men and women old enough

be more in keeping with the dig
nifty and object of the association.

New Year Bloody Murder.

Just about the time when The Bee
thought that the New Year would
come in and the month of January
would pass before any lynching took
place, on the 18th, as will be seen,
Kentucky adds fame % to her rec
ord by lynching a poor and unfortu-

IF FOOTBALL PAYS
Future of Crews Depends
Upon Finances of This
Seasons Eleven.
COACH DEMPSEY is
HARDLY OPTIMISTIC
Many Good Oarsmen in College
Waiting Opportunity to Re-
turn to Sport.

Whether Georgetown will be rep
resented iE intercollegiate aquatic sports
this year. is question, that Is puzzling,
rot only the student body and the gen.
erai public, but even those hign in
power in Blue and Gray athletics.
Patrick Dempsey, for many years the
coach of the crew and always an i'm
portant figure in -;he management OF
Georgetown sports, is far from 0ptinI-
istic in regards to- the placing OF a
crew on the water this season He
stated that the whole matter depends
or tFe financial success of the present
football season, for as rowing is by far
the most expensive item Oh the inter-
college list of sports it v i'll be necessary
to have a large reserve fund. before the
H'lltoppGrs can take up the sport.
Provided the money can be secured
for finaEcing the crew, both Coach
Dempsey and Manager BrosSeaI are
confident that the University will be
better represented on the water than It
has been for several years past. as
I:iany other veteran oarsmen are still in
school, white others that have had
ira ining in prep school shells, have been
added TO the undergraduate body.
Daley, Cunniff, Crosby. Carr, Nc
Cormick, Needham, and Langan remain
Annapolis IN 1915, and added to these
men are others who held seats in the
second boat the same year.
Fob Eller is the most prominent
acquisition TO the Georgetown naval
squad. ElIer, who is a member of the
New York Yacht Club has had ex-
rerience in all kinds of aquatics, from
lowing single Dared to strOking an
eight-oared shell. He will strengthen
the crew greatly, If the financial con.
oitiOn at the end Of the gridiron season
of 1911 warrant the return OF Georges
town to its former place in the inter-
collegiate rowing world
Coach Dempsey positively declared
that no matter il Georgetown was not
represented by a crew this year, the
rowing department would be in exist
ence next season, and that he and
Assistant Manager Madigan, who will
be in charge il, 1913. will see that II Is

Burns kept the favorite back in the
ruck until the stretch was reached
when he brought the filly up with a

failed to land.

Iris Speaker Is
Hurt by Cashion
In Final Battle

BOSTON, Oct. S.-Less than 1000 per-
sons, the smallest crowd of the year,
saw the Nationals and Red Sox close
the season here yesterday.
There was little or nothing to the
game except the fact that Iris Speaker
was smashed on the right knee by a
pitched ball and so severely injured that
he will be unable to play in the ALL
Star exhibition games.
McAleer selected Cashion as his pitch
er and the big fellow was as wild as
the proverblal hare. While he allowed
but five passes, CashiOn kept the bat
ters lodging during most of the after
noon and the majority of the Red Sox
ielt themselves lucky to escape the fate
OF their brilliant outfielder.
Cashion went through the first and
second innings in comparatively good
shape, but in the third he blew right,
and before three men had been retired
the SoX had piled up a half dozen
tallies and had the contest safe. Then
Buck Becker was called to the relief,
and during his service of FIVE innings
he held the opposition to two hits, and
but one run was scored.
Although Washingtons hit total was
the same as Boston's. Charley Han
pitched far better bail than the men
opposing him, and had it not been for a
temporary let-up in the fifIn he would
have scored a shut-out. AS ii was he
won easily, and Boston fans are today
hoping that the White SoX lose their
game with Cleveland in order that the
Red SoX may be able to finish in the
first division.
The field was wind swept, and had it
not been for the fact that Boston was
figuring on the victory to keep them out
of the second section OF the parade, it
would probably never nave been played.
In the first inning Boston got one run
when Cashion made three wild pitches
and hit a batter. Then were inserted
two errors. and when It was all cleared
up the SoX were in the lead.
The big blow off came IN the third,
when the home team piled up six runs
1t all happened after two were out,
Cashion signing three passes and allow
ing four hits.
The Nationals lone score came in the
fifth, when Cunningham, Becker and
Milan singled, and the first named was
able to cross the plate while Schaefer
was being retired on an infleld chance.
In the eighth Riggert caught one Of
Becker's fast balls on the end of the
bat, and II went so far that he able to
complete the circuit ahead Of the relay.

Deluge of Money Pours in
Upon Overworked Clerks
at Gotham.
EVERYBODY WANTS
TO SEE TITLE GAME
Time For Receiving Mail Orders
Closes Tomorrow-Many
Will Lose.

NEW YORK, Oct. S.-A deluge of
checks and money orders to the amount
OF 100000 to pay for seats a the worlds s
championship series, yesterday poured
into the offices of the New York Ma
tional League baseball club. Everyone,
1t seemed, was sending in money to Sc
cure tickets TO the Giants and Athletics
battle here for the pennant which goes
to the champion of champions.
Postmen literally staggered under the
weight of money-laden mail as they en-
tered the baseball clubs offices, and the
prediction was made that those who
waited for the public sale at the Polo
Grounds on next Saturday would be
woefully restricted to a small amount
o. tickets. From all over the country
orders accompanied by checks, are be-
ing sent in. Owing TO the flood of
money mail a squad of policemen was
detailed to guard the place and keep
prospective pur cEasers who applied in
person in line
All the baseball enthusiasts in this
vicinity seem determined TO De present
at the opening game, the hrst world s
championship game New York has wit
retary of the New York club, assisted
by staf of clerks, struggled with the
mass which was dumped in his office.
Five thousand letters or more were re-
ceived today, with more pIling in con-
stantly.
The clerks were kept busy opening
mail and asserting the orders. Into a
dry goods box they tossed the accepted
orders. The box, a yard square and
deep, was full at noon. Great piles of
letters containing uncertiied checks
were set aside to be returned to the
writer's. The preference was given to
orders for the three-game series. After
these are all filled orders for tickets to
two games, and perhaps one game will
be filled. On Thursday the advance pub
lie sale will begin. AS yet the tickets
have not been received from the print
ers in Philadelphia
1t looks as though all who apply by
mail will get tickets said Mr.. Gray,
but there is no telling now many who
wait for the public saIe Will be disap-
pointed"
The time for receiving mail Iders for
tickets closes tomorrow night
