To answer a question heard very
 much of late, Where has .'Baby Dou'' 1 got to? the following from the Al | bany Knickerbocker Press is reprint | ed. Some of the Babes statements in the following article have been termed infamous ueS'' by members of the Bridgeport Police department. The story follows:
 Dust dulls the golden crown and there are moths in the regal robes.
 The throne is torn down, the slaves in leopard skins have passed along.
 William Baby DolT' Thomas, who called himsef King of the Niggers,' ,'' laughs in hearty and non-cOmmittal fashion when asked if he again in tends to organize and rule the EthiO- plan Kingdom of the East over which he once claimed so powerful a sway.
 Thomas, who says he has writer's cramp from putting his name on pO- lice blotters, but has never ridden placed it on the police pad again dur ing the recent raid in the Troy black belt He is now proprietor of the Owl House. in River street, Troy.
 Back in the old days, as "Baby DOlP' calls them, he conducted a gilt tering cabaret in Bridgeport, Conn. Marble and mahogany made the place one of the most expensive re- sorts of the black world. Black and wni5a swarmed to his place to drink and make merry. There was said to be one room to which whites were never admitted. To them 1t was known as the throne rOOm."
 Within these exalted portals, ''Bapy Doll" it was whispered about. con ducted a court which would rival that of a Solomon.

BOY EMPEROR'S FAVOR IS WON

Rockefeller Foundation in China Gets $1,OOO Check As Sign of Appreciation.

Picking, Dec. S.-Rockefeuer was $1,OOO richer by a check given by the boy Emperor toward the develop ment of an eye hospital in connection with the ''Foundation's'' work in China The donation came in grat- itude for services rendered by an ocu- list attached to the Union Medical College in Picking. which is a part of the Rockefeller Foundation.
 The doctor was the first of his kind to visit the Forbidden City, md the Imperial Court had to pass spe- ciaI edict so that he might be per nitted access. His coming was bit terly opposed by the older Manchus and especially by the court eunuchS No Emperor had ever before AVG rn glasses. and it seemed flying in the face of Heaven to use them. More over, no one Of the dynasty had eveT been subject to tn eindignities Of 8.
 Tradition OverruIed.
 In the palace fresh complica tion9 arose It is against the Jaw for a doctor to touch or even look at his imperial patient. To obVlate thla another law had to be passed. These matters were carried out with great solennity, for the Manchu Court op- crates with the same ceremony prac- ticed in the days when more than half Of Asia was under it's power.
 An examination revealed that the

 Shortly afterward the Emperor heard that his old toutor was dying and in spite of the protests of the protests of eunuchs. who are radical ly opposed to his leaving t,le palace, he insisted on paying Q last visit.
 Now Divine Healer"
 He also took the preCaution to firing with him a foreign doctor. Tn this case a German. The trip was made without incident. The last rites had already been administered and the sick man was clothed for his Journey to Heaven.,. and the coffin had been brought into the room.
 But the foreign doctor. at the Elm perOr's request, made an examination and decided that there was still hope for a recovery Proper treatment was prescribed, and the old man re- covered. Unfortunately the miracle is not credited to the doctor, but to the EmperOrS visit. His Majesty is now reported to be possessed of mag iC healing qualities.

'1AYTONA 10 HOLD
 kIR-GLIDING MEET
Orville Wright and Glenn
 Curtis to Co-Operate- Hundred Pliers to Enter.
By International News Service.


 Daytona, Fla, Dec. S-The first in ternational air gliding and soaring meet to be held in America will take place the latter part of January at Daytona Beach and Sea breee. This announcement was made by following invitation to the Aero Science Club of America to hold the meet here. which has been accepted. With the invita- ton to the club 10 hold the meet here, the Chamber of Com merce also made an offer of $1,000 in prize money.
 Stanley Yale Beach, secretary of th e club, announced that Orville- Wright and Glenn H Curtis would cooperate ir the event and that at least 100 flyers would compete.
 Glenn Curtis recently successfully rose Tn a glider from the water. When Hentzen, a young German student, made a continuous flight of three lourS and 10 minutes in a mo- torless plane. authorities on aviation began. to realize that something in the way of a revolution had dawned in the science of air plane construction and control For a number of years the attention of airplane manufacturers and operation has centered largely on the motor. relying on its power to offset any lack in plane construction and pilotage.
 Germans Successful
 The Germans have added to their 
 building planes equipped with two ard sikh horsepower motors that have ma de the flight over a specified route of 20 miles or more and more recently have constructed a glider that rose from the water and flew for several minutes without being lowed.
 The importance that has been at tached to these feats in motorless plane construction and operation is seen in the fact that last August an international gliding and soaring con- petition was held in France in which representatives of several nations participated. This meet was follow ed by a S5,000 prize competition held in England in October during which Captain Raynanl, an English aviator, flew for one hour and B minutes iH a motorless plane. The London Daily Mail announced a S25.0O0 con- test for next year.

of tourists, who will attend the exhi- bition.
 Considering the great importance at tached by experts to the science and srort of gliding and soaring in mo- tOrless planes and the great interest shown all over the world by this un- expected developm ent in aviation. the people of this section and those from the North who spend their Winters here are highly pleased with the pres pect of the meet
 Preparations on a broad scale are under way for the meet. Some of the planes specially constructed by the Aero Club are already on the grounds. and are undergoing test flights.

The police returned the fire and bringing up machine guns poured l streams of bullets into the place in a l battle which lasted nearly six hours. At least two were killed and several injured
 A trial followed. Baby DoIr' was acquitted, thanks to the excerenC
 work of his counsel, William H. Lewis of Boston, a former Assistant one of cIeverest colored lawyers Tn the world. But it cost Baby Dolr' his place on the ''throne" and he left Bridgeport.
 That raid cost me more than S4U,- OOO,' "Baby DoII' said yesterday down the country. finally winding up in Troy.
 Unlike the Marcus Garvey type. Thomas has no idea of setting up an independent negro rule. At present he says, he is endeavoring to recoup part of his lost fortune. although he says he still has some funds. As a gambler, Baby Dou'' claims to have turned over nearly $200,O00 with dice 2 nd cards alone.
 When asked what had become of the luxurious lavender limousine in which he used to ride, he said his wife was still using It m New Haven, Conn. He said he has two children. one of whom is in business in New York, and one who he now claims Is in Yale University.
 Even now the former Kings au- thority is in evidence as he is master of his little place and his servants obey with the same alacrity that they might if a whip had been cracked over their heads. He has also framed a letter to the police in which he says he will enforce law and order in his place. 'The old United States is a big place if you have to pay your way around it but when the police are after you it isn't as big as Troy" is the F'Babe's' policy.
 '.When I get in a jam I would rather pay a good lawyer to get me out than to ride" he says.

LUPOTHEWOLF,
FAMOUS CROOK,
GETS RELEASE
Head of Famous Counterfeit
ing Band Had Been Detained
at Ellis Island.

NEW YORK, June 16-Ignazio Lupc,
known as "Lupo the Wolf, and for many
years considered by the New York po-
lice and Government secret service Of
icers as a desperate criminal, was re
leased from Ellis Island after he had
been detained there three weeks while
an attempt was being made to deport
him. Lupo was taken in charge by a
secret service agent three weeks ago
as he was leaving an Italian liner
The order annoyed the secret service
officials and the local police. who had
been certain that an order for his de-
portation would follow the inquiry be-
cause Of the long array Of facts pre-
sented TO show that he was an undesir-
able alien. II had also been shown that
Federal Judge Ray, who sentenced Lupo
10 his last known term of imprisonment,
had directed that when bis term Of i'm
prisOnment had been served he should
be deported.
So far as known, no explanation came
from Washington with the order or
Lupus release. II was surmised that
Lupo either had or would be required
TO pay for the privilege OF remaining
here by rendering the Government some
signal service.
Feb. 70. 1910. Lupo was sentenced TO
thirty years in the Atlanta penitentiary
and the others were sent to the same
prison from terms varying from fifteen
to eighteen years each
In sentencing Lupo, Judge Ray ex-
pressed the opinion that he was the head
Of the gang and along with MOrello re-
sponsible for its organization and ras-
calities The police then believed that
IN breaking up this gang the menace Of
the black hand had been ended.
During the trial Of Lupo, Antonio Co
rnito, a government witness. testified that
he had heard Lupo say, 1T was a good
fob when we got rid Of Petrosino.
Petrosino was one OF the most efficient
central office detectives whose chief work
was running down italian criminals.
When on a hunt in Italy for men who
had committed crimes here he was muir
dered. Lupo, II was said, was in Italy
at the time Of the murder. Officials,
however. failed to link Lupo with this
crime.
Lupo returned to Italy when he was
released from the Atlanta penitentlary
after serving eleven years of this thirty
year term. Having in mind the order OF
Judge Ray that he should be deported
as soon as he was free, he made no Ell
fort to stay in this country When ne
left this country the Federal and local
police said: THAT is the end OF Lupo
so far as we are concerned.
