er of the bank firm of r. w. Hunter
& Co., which concern has been very
active in establishing private banks
was bound over to the grand jury un-
der bonds of $4,000 which were fur
nished, on charge of perjury in
the court of Judge Sullivan. The ac-
ton came in a request for receiver
ship brought by the cashier of his
bank, c. A. Hansberry During a re-
session of court, the various parties
got together and arranged to with
draw the receivership charge How
ever, Mr. Hunter was held on the per-
jury charge because he claims that
he is not the Randolph W. Hunter
who was indicted, convicted and
served three months sentence in
Chicago some months ago. There was
a run on the Hunter banks this week,
but they were, with the assistance Of
friends, able to pay claims.

The Kerr & Smalley Music COM

player-pianos last week. Mr.. Kerr
stated that these instruments were
purchased in March and at that time
the wholesale price was 20 per cent
less than it is now. This means
that they are are in position to
sell pianos from SIS to $1OO less
than what you would have to pay
other dealers. Mr. Kerr also stated
that by buying in large quantities

on more liberal terms than any

Founder of Standard Life Insurance

aPitaists-Ready to "Put Over"
Big Financial Venture.
Especial to The Tribune).

Washington, D. c., Nov. 12.-Fresh
from New York City, where he spent
week or ten days in conference with
capitalists who control millions, Ho-
man E. Perry, president of the Stand
ard Life Insurance company of At
lanta, Ca, stopped over in Washing
ton this week en- route south, and an
nounced the formal launching of "A
campaign to put over a financial ven
ture of tremendous Importance to the
Colored people, to be known as the
Citizens Trust company.
This is the only financial corpora
tion to be controlled by Colored people
favorably passed upon by the capital
issues committee of the Sixth Fed
eral Reserve Bank of Atlanta, Ca, and
also by the capital issues committee
of the U. S. treasury department at
Washington, D. c. The new financial
institution is to be under national and
state supervision.
The institution is to have capital
of $250,000, and a surplus of an equal
amount, $25O,OOO. Aside from a regu-
lar banking and trust business, spe-
cial emphasis will be given to assist
ing Colored people in purchasing and
building homes, and in securing form
properties on long time payments and
at low rates of interest. The develop
ment of Colored business concerns and
industrial corporations will receive
special attention. The new concern
will be national in scope, with branch
offices in many important centers.
Mr.. Perry explained his plans in full
detail to the officers of one of the
largest trust companies in New York
and is to be guided in the ormation
and operation of the Citizens Trust
company by these trained experts. He
has been assured substantial encour-
agement in the carrying out of his
plans.

ALPHA PHI ALPHA.
SOCIETY OF BLACK men.
WILL Meet in CHICAGO.
(By Associated Negro Press)

(By Associated Negro Press)
CHICAGO, Nov 1.-THE Alpha
Phi Alpha Fraternity, the first and
largest Greek letter fraternity among
Negro college men, will hold its 18th
annual convention in Chicago on De-
cember 27-31, at the seat of Theta
chapter. The general officers are
leaving no stones unturned to make
this, the reconstruction convention,
surpass all others; and already they
can safely say that the delegation
this year will be larger than ever
before. This year will mark the re-
turn of a large number of men who
have been in service overseas, and
III addition many older men who saw
the organization in it's early struggle
back in '06, and who are now out in
life, will return to greet their brother
Hellenites in this annual conclave. 1t
is also certain that the various chap
ters will have full quotas of dele
gates Notwithstanding their locations.
With chapters stretching from
Sigma at classic Harvard to Up
silon at Free Kansas GU" and from
Mu of the Gopher State university to
Delta-Lambda in Athenic Atlanta,
with all eyes and steps turning to-
ward the Windy city, during the
holiday season, nothing less than the
greatest assembly of trained men
among our people can be predicted.
Starting with one chapter at Cor
nell university in 1906, the fraternity
has become international in scope. In
contradiction and defiance of much
public opinion that fraternities are
school day revelries for good time"
this organization has stood for or
ganized activity and cooperative in
fluence of socially liked-minded per-
sons in the service of their fellow
man.

Spartanburg, Aug. s. Buster
Cooker, eight years of age, of Wood
ruff, Spartanburg county, was lodged
in the county Jail yesterday on a
charge of having shot and instantly
killed his little five year old brother
Wednesday night. From the evidence
brought out at the coroner,s inquest
it appears that the two boys were
alone in their aunt's home, other
members of the family having gone to
church and that young Fred Cooker
dashed a glass of water into MS
brothers face while asleep, the older
how was awakened and it was believed
crawled upstairs into an attic Sc
curing a single barrelled shot gun
with which he almost completely
blew his little brothers head on, II
is stated.
Responsibility for the crime was
fixed upon Buster Cooker by the cor
oner's inquest. This is believed to be
the Youngest defendant ever arrested
in this county charged with capital
offense.
