We are told that in Philadelphia
there is a move OF foot to boycott
the Italian owned taverns in Negro
districts, which was started by Earl
johnson, colored, and a tavern owner.
He has encouraged other race men,
bers to do likewise, that is, to set up
.emporiums for the dispensing Of
liquor, open mite clubs, or in other
words, since we must have these
establishments for amusements, let
Negroes own them in Negro districts.
Keeping money in the family is a
great thing whether it applies to the
tavern owner or the baker,

Interesting news here for Negro
insurance companies. Seaborn T..
Whatley, vice president of Aetna Life
Insurance company, Hartford, will in
1886, head a committee to promote
"Life Insurance Week" as a means Of
creating further interest among the
larger insurance companies. The
campaign is carried out in coopera-
ton with the National Association Of
Life Underwriters. Newspapers will
be the chief medium and the plans
call for an expenditure of 5000, 900
in advertising alone. Forty thousand
inches of publicity will be used also,
in this massive campaign to encour-
age WHITE PEOPLE to buy insur-
ance from WHITE COMPANIES.
Negro insurance companies may well
take a tip from this and prepare a
campaign to encourage Negro pros
poets to buy their insurance from
NEGRO COMPANIES.

Perhaps no actor of Negro blood
has achieved as much distinction, and
has won for himself as much popu-
larity, especially with London audi
ences, as Paul Robson. We have
long heralded him as an important
cog in the development of art among
our people. Years ago when I first
heard him sing water Boy there
was something so indelibly stamped
on my mind about this actor, singer
and scholar, that I have always
wanted to see him reach the heights
Of stardom such as no Thespian has
ever done. By all means go to see
SANDERS Of The River" staring Mr..
Robson. 1t is the tale of a strange
romance and will you forget the
glorius voice of Robson as he leads
his frenzied warriors into battle.

1t was the triumph Of the Harlem
ties. Had Camera been the winner, it
would have been the same demonstra-
ton yer on the East Side in "Little
Italy" People danced on the streets
until the wee hours Of the morning.
One thousand policemen were on
duty, just in case, but they were not
needed. With exception to an oc-
casional boisterous urchin or helpless
man beloboured with too much of the
rare vintage, all was safe on the Har-
lem front. They were only shouting
for joy-nothing more-Joe Louis

New York City, guly 1.-THE
WINNER! Joe Louis by a technical
knockout. That is what the announc-
err said here last Tuesday night as
10000 rabid fight fans stood and
cheered for the Brown Bomber of De-
troit who had completely outfought
one Primo Camera. There were not
disorderlies as Mr.. Pegler would have
had US believe. It was, purely and
simple, an intelligent gathering of
sport fans assembled from all parts
of the u. S. A., to see the best mar
win, That "Best Man" proved to be
Joe Louis and following the fight at
the Yankee Stadium, 10000 Afro
Americans paraded up and down
Seventh Avenue, blocking traffic for
at least 10 city blocks, pandemonium
reigned supreme, the Lord God had
seen fit to answer 100000 prayers.

It is the purpose to make general
survey Of these buses. The impress
ion must not be made that they are
not properly supervised, that they are
unsafe, or, that they do not have COM
petent operators. The various School
Boards in the State will be asked for
copies Of the rules and regulations
governing the operation of these buses
and make general check up. When
there is a deficiency in the safeguard
ing of the children an inspection of
the vehicles in question will be arrang-
ed. Should the inspection show that
there is not sufficient care taken to
protect the children the matter will be
taken UP with the State Board of Edu-
cation, the Commissioner of Motor We

him tell where other money was.
Mr.. Jones assured the negroes that
he had no more money about the place
and when he did this they took knife
and drew across his throat several
times in an effort to scare him. Then
they stuffed his mouth with cotton
and held matches under his fingers.
Mr.. Jones told the negroes if they
would not torture him any more they
would be welcome to his money and
the jewelry about the shop. His fin
gers were blistered badly.
Later, parties from Melfa stopped
by the shop and the negroes were scar
ed off. Detective Warner Davis ar
rived at his place at 900 o'clock and
found Mr.. Jones in bad condition.
The negroes, according to Mr.. Jones
were walking and when they entered
his place of business they had told him
they wanted to buy a watch.
In a statement to Detective Davis
Mr.. Jones described the negroes and a
search was begun at once. Detective
Davis ran across them at Tasley and

they vanished in the dark across the

for the culprits.

PROPOSAL BRINGS ANSWER
AFTER SEVENTY-FIVE YRS.

The advertisement of young gen
tleman" for correspondence with
young lady with a view to matri-
mony" has brought an answer-75
years afterwards.
The "young gentleman" however,
did not receive the answer, since it
is likely that he is interested no long
er in young ladies or any other of the
delightful prospects Of this mortal
realm. In short, he is most probably
dead, having been rs years of age
when he asked in 1861 that replies
be directed to Box IL of the Accomac
postoffice..
The reply from young woman OF
Crisfield, Nd, who modestly admit
ted that she fulfilled all the require
nlents, was received by the present
holder Of Box II, an attorney.
The explanation is that several
items from an issue of the National
Recorder, published in Accomac, Va,
on February 8, 1861, were reprinted
with comment in last weeks edition
of the Peninsula Enterprise. The
young gentleman's ad, which was di-
rectly preceded in the Enterprise by
the notice of an auction sale of two
Negro slaves, apparently misled others
! than the young woman of Crisfield,
several persons having asked the post
mistress to tell them in confidence
who had Box IL.
The young man described himself
as "of prepossessing appearance, aft
able manners, fine address, good fam
lily, ample means, southern birth and
25 years of age" He sought "a young
lady with like endowments" as him
self, "desirous of forming matrimon-
ial alliance"

develop a building that is absolutely
fireproof. Intense research work is
being carried on with such purpose
in view. At this time, however, it
is up to the Firemen, the Parents, and
the Teachers to see that children re-
ceive the necessary and proper in
struction in fire hazards and how to
eliminate them. Most children that
have attained a certain age know a
dangerous fire condition when they see
one, but, have adults given them the
proper instructions as to how to eli
inmate them?
One may ask how this may be done
in schools. It is believed that the an
swer is simple: Keep up regular Fire
Drills, let the children write essays
on fires that occur in their neighbor-
hoods and on fire hazards with which
they come in contact. The Chief Of
local Fire Departments will gladly
give them the information they want
and will assist them with this work.
The Fire Prevention Committee has
taken up the question of whether the

OCTOBER 6-12
IS FOR FIRE
PREVENTION

Another Fire Prevention Week, Oc-
tober 9th to 18th, inclusive is at hand.
It is the duty of citizens and firemen
to put forth their best efforts to edu-
cate people, especially the children, in
the Importance and value of their CO.
operation in this work.
Fire Prevention means to remove
those agencies that have the POSSIBLE
ties of starting a fire. Such hazards
are the real cause Of loss of life, de-
struction Of valuable property and
sometimes the wiping out of an entire
community or town, due to fire. Ser
ious thought resulted in the national
izing of Fire Prevention work. Pre-
ventable fires are more than private
misfortune, they are public calamity
at this time of emergency, when, con-
servation of natural resources is so
necessary. 1t is more than a matter
of deep and pressing importance that
every means possible be employed to
prevent this widespread evil. By do
ing your part in this work you will
play an important part.
In order to reduce Fire Hazards
everybody must reduce carelessness.
Fire Prevention and Inspection and
general clean up by people are the
only means by which this can be
brought about. 1t should have the I'M
firing support of every citizen.
The increasing toll of human life
and destruction of valuable property
taken annually by preventable fires
make it more urgent than ever before
that a unified campaign of education
be carried out. This educational cam
paign must be designed to overcome
and reduce the recklessness and care
lessness of people, and must be care
fully carried out. It behooves each
enc to cooperate in the designing
and the construction of new ideas, to
increase the fire safety of people and
communities. There must also devel
op such measures as will insure what
ever may be necessary for human pro-
lection.
It should be seen to that School, Nov
ing Picture Parlors, Institutions and
many other places where children and
large audiences gather are unquestion-
ably safe. Modern science has yet to
