With a cast Of over eighty-three
persons the final rehearsals for 'Thais"
are now in progress nightly at the
Avenue Theater, preparing for what
looks to be the most noteworthy pre-
miere in the history Of the annals Of
Colored Society on next Monday night.
Costumes, scenery and orchestra are
complete in every detail. The three
ladies to play the leading roles "Thais"
at different intervals during the week
are finishing up the finer points in the
portrayal of this notorious courtezan
of Alexandria and between the time
spent with their modistes preparing
gowns they are the busiest ladies in
Chicago, namely: Camille Cohen

The Rhinelander rotten divorce case
or annulment suit has been on the
biIlboards in the Supreme Court at
White Plains, N. Y, for the past two
weeks, and the decayed mess leaves a
powerful bad taste in the mouths Of
all Of those who come in close con
tact with the head and front Of the
divorce proceedings, 50 far it has been
clearly proven that Mr. Rhinelander
never intended to honorably become
united in marriage to Miss Jones, that
it was his intention to use her as his
colored mistress, that the dark color
OF her skin never phased him once, for

Commenting on the results to date.
James Weldon Johnson, N.A.AC.P.
secretary, said:
The countrywide response to the
appeal for funds to fight for the
Negro's fundamental citizenship rights
is most encouraging. With those funds
we hope to win the Detroit case. But
that case is only the most dramatic
one OF many we have to fight. The
Washington segregation case is no less
important Colored people should
know that in the Washington case, the
eminent counsel associated with the
attorneys for the plaintiffs, Messrs.
Moorheld Storey, Louis Marshall, Ar
thur B. Spingarn and Herbert K.
Stockton, are giving their services abb
solutely without compensation. For
that reason only the Washington case
will cost less than the very expensive
Detroit fight, but the incidental ex-
penses such as printing, will neverthe-
less be heavy. There is crying need
for every cent that anyone has to give.
The enthusiastic response to the
N.AA.C.P. appeal shows that both
white and colored people are aware Of
the critical moment"
New York.-Dr. w. G. Alexander,
Of Orange, N. j., president-elect of the

that the colored doctors have unani-
mously voted to ask their entire mem
bership to contribute to the $4,000
Legal Defense Fund being raised By

about not only BY reason of the de-

cause OF his purity Of diction, his fac
wit, crushing satire and general SYM

strongly resembles the great French

his Quatrains, a collection of about
800 eplgrams which Fitzgerald has
done into English. But Omar. the
