He had been in poor health

regretted and came as a shock
to his large group of friends
and admirers, and especially is
he mourned by the Negro group

position were given them and he
supported their advancement
at all times.

WiLcoe Beer Garden
Boycotted by Negroes
In Theft Accusation
Say That Henderson Girl
Was Wrongly Accused of
Theft of Money From Safe


Many Negroes who formerly
went to the beer garden in VIII
coe, run by Steve and Pauline
Colipiche, have said that they
are going there no more and are
urging all Negroes to stop Civ
ing business to the Colipiche's.
Last Saturday, which is nor
mally a busy day for all bust
nesses Of this kind, found COM
paratively few customers in the
beer garden and practically all
of them were white.
Pauline Colipiche alienated
the support of Negroes when
she accused Alberta Mcpherson,
a Negro girl, of having stolen
$500 from a safe in her kitchen.
AT the hearing held last week
nd evidnece was presented to
show That the gixl took t11e
money. Pauline said that the
money was stolen on a Saturday
and she hid not miss it until the
following Monday night. She
said that she accused the girl
because she had the best oppor-
tunity to have stolen the money.
Alberta Henderson, the ac-
cused girl, was employed as a
maid by Pauline and was at
work there on the Saturday that
Pauline thinks the money wa
stolen. While it was pointed out
at the hearing that many other
people had access to the room
from which the money was stol-

that she thought Alberta had her
money. :. -.
