YOUNG PIANIST OF RARE ABIL-
ITY DELIGHTS DENVER
AUDIENCE

Miss Grace Dunlap, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. William Dunlap of Colorado
Springs, citizens of many years resi-
dence there, delighted a large and ap-
preciative audience of music lovers
last week, Thursday evening, at the
Peoples Presbyterian Church, where
she was presented by the Ivy Leaf
Club of Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority of
Colorado Teachers College. This tai
ented pianist is Il real Colorado pro-
duct, who received her training at the
Chicago Conservatory of Music. and
who was accredited one of the most
successful pupils of the school, and
quite an exponent of the art. Her
touch and technique were not only up
to the standard of professional play
ers, but she possesses an originality in
style which attracts and pleases, and
her Interpretation of the Chopin, List
and Rachmaninoff compositions was
correct, according to the expression of
one of our leading musicaI critics
Mrs. NJ. Il. Berry, local elocutionist,
contributed reading selections which
were well received, and the presenta-
ton of flowers by the boys of the AL
pha Phi Alpha helped to make this
event an ever-memorable one in the
minds of Denver citizens.
Besides the many patrons of Colo
RADIO Springs and Denver was the Del
tn Chapter of Alpha Kappa Alpha,
Kansas University. Miss Dunlap de-
served much credit for her execution
and merited the applause and appreci-
alton she received. Many persons at
tended from other Colorado points.
The members of the Ivy Leaf Club,
all young folks, Misses Myra Glenn,
Isabel Jenkins, Marcella Parsons, Myr
tie Smith, Florence and Alberta Hick-
man, are to be congratulated on their
initial effort, which has resulted so
successfully.

Washington, Sept. 17.-One economic
result of the migration of Negroes
northward during the past year has
been the impetus given to the estab-
lishment of Negro banks and the
growth of race bank deposits. Wash

go, and smaller cities are centers of in
creased activities in the growth of Ne

Garvey Released
From TOmbs for
$4,000 Cash Bail

After a weeks effort, Marcus Gar
sal Negro Improvement Association,
convicted nearly three months ago of
using the mails to defraud in selling
stock in the Black Star Line, and held
in the Tombs prison pending his ap-
peal from the sentence imposed by
Federal Judge Mack of five years in
the federal prison at Leavenworth,
Kan, and a fine of $1,000, finally sue
ceeded in making bail by putting up
$4,000 cash, and was released from
prison on Monday, Sept. 10.
Since being sentenced on June 81,
Garvey has made many futile efforts
to secure bail, but it was not until he
secured the services of George Gordon
Battel as his attorney that any success
was met with Attorney Battle took
up the matter with United States At
torney William Hayward and secured
his consent to fixing bail, after which
cablegram was sent to Judge Mack,
who is in Palestine, advising him of
the situation. With objections from
the federal prosecutor removed, Judge
Mack, cabled his consent, and then, on
Sept. 3, Federal Judge Manton an
nounced that the prisoner would be re-
leased on $25,OOO bonds.
After a week had elapsed, with the
Garveites unable to raise the required
bail, another appeal was made and
Judge Manton reduced the amount to
$4,000. This bail was given on Mon
day and Garvey walked out of Tombs
prison free man for the first time
since the jury returned a verdict of
guilty on June IS last.
The Garvey appeal is scheduled to
be heard at the United Stotes Circuit
Court of Appeals some time in Octo-
ber.

Colorado Gets More
Delegates

Increased representation for west
ern states, including fourteen instead
of twelve delegates for Colorado. is
the most important change in the APP
portionment for the 1924 Republican
national convention, details of which
have been received at state headquar-
ters in Denver.
The order of the national committee
results in sharp reductions for south
ern states. No delegates will be al
lowed from congressional districts
which do not maintain Republican
organization and do not cast at least
$500 Republican votes. By this order
several southern districts are COM
pletely deprived of representation.
South Cardinals strength in the con-
vention is reduced from IL to 4, Mis-
sissippi's from u to 4, Louisiana's
from II to 9, and Georgia's from II to
8.
Colorado will have six delegates at
large instead of the four which were
allowed in 1920. The total number of
delegates at the convention will be l.
0S6.

Death Ends
Brilliant Career

Miss Nora Fields Taylor, who was
recently elected to the office of grand
daughter ruler of the Improved Benev-
olent and Protective Order of Elks of
the World during the grand session
here, died at her home, 1887 Vernon
avenue, Monday evening. Her death
was due to an affected heart, aggra-
waited by some organic disturbance,
and strain from overwork In attending
public duties.
Mrs. Taylor was born in Carrollton,
Mo, Jan. %. 1870. She moved to Chi
cago in 1891. Here she began her pub
lie career enlisting in the African
Methodist Foreign Mission. Her work
as a missionary has carried her over
the entire United States, large por-
tion of Africa and the West Indies.
Her last Illness was due primarily to
privation and exposure incurred during
her African expedition.
Last December Mrs. Taylor sailed
from New York for Monrovia, Liberia,
for the purpose of acquiring an episco-
pal. residence to be used by the bish-
obs of the African Methodist Episco-

sion after many months of hardships,

While tearing down an old store
and dwelling building in Havre de

foreman of the job, found bag fill
ed with paper money said to amount
to, nearly $4,000.
The money was discovered be-
tween the floors of the second and
third stories, and was lin denomi-
nations from $40 to 10 cents.
The notes are in good condition
and are on national banks through
out the country. One note was of
the series of 1868, and bears the
name of the First National Bank of
Providence, Rhode Island.
The building was partially destroy
ed by fire several months ago, and it
was because of this that it was being
torn down to make room for an up
to-date apartment house.
The building was occupied many
years ago by the Patterson family,
who sold it about 80 years ago, since
which time 1t has been occupied by
the families of the late Thomas Will

several others, when it was pur-
chased by Mr.. Newmyer few years

One of the greatest difficulties that
