P. Morgan returns froi his present Eastern cruise on the flaj fhip Corsair. In weil informed yachting circle last night it was believed that tr Canadian challenge meant a return 1 schooner yachts, designed in a gei eral way after the America, vvhic brought the famous trophy to th country in 1851. This idea vas supported by the ce tainty that .-Emilius Jarvis, premi« Corinthian of Canada, is to have tl wheel of the ne\t challenger. Jarvis b skipper who has made hi3 maritii: reputation with two-stickers of tl type of his S2-foot Haswell, believed Britishers to be the fastest schoon aflea:. Jarvis owns the Haswell, a; has won rrany races with her with t help of crews made up of Nova Scot fishermen trained to handle raici canvas. Race Nest Year Seems Certain According to a Canadian yachtsm who is a member of both clubs f< warding the notice of challen; schoo:.ers will not be used. The (. r.ad.«.:': clp hunter will be a sloop va¡ ing slightly in design from Resoh and Shamrock IV, and while she w be thoroughly seaworthy, she will hi: all the lightness of construction of 1 successful Herreshoff defender. At the New York Yacht Club I night it was admitted that the not of challenge received from Alexan< C. Ross, of Montreal, means that Amelia's Cup must I- defended ag. next year. That such a challenge wo be forthcoming in the event of defeat of Shamrock IV in her conte with Resolute was stated by .veil kne Cara,.:--, yachtsmen, who came h for the International classic just one The official combination challe of the Canadian yacht clubs is pected by the New York Yacht C ?.s soon a^ acknowledgment of the n fication telegram has been returi When the challenge is received uncertainty about "the type of ya( tobe used will be cle-red up. The telegram received here f. Ross was simply an unofficial notii tion of the challenge to come ; while it gave rise to the belief t the challenging boat would be schooner, the best information f Canadian yachting circles seems to dicate that the sloop rig of re« years will be adhered to. George A. Cormack, secretary w York Yacht Club, said the :. tification from Ross had I received and that when acknowje ment of : had been returned the c lenge w .': be forwarded immedia The secretary would give no indica as to the probable attitude of the toward the latest challengers. No Popular Subscription Ac rding to the Tribune's Cana informant, the idea of building 1921 challenger by public, subscrij h:- already been abandoned. The not enough public interés in li the America's Cup to appeal to peoj and offers of cash mad« wealthy Canadians have already this unnecessary. It is under: that a considerable portion ef backing has come from England, v there is a strong desire to see Ch bolsón, designer of ihe f< Shai rock, draw the lines for an cha;!«_ nger.

Yanitio To B< Roentered There seems to br strong proba however, that Vanitie, the bronzi didate that was beaten out of the of de fen ling the cup against the Liptcn boat, will be reëntered possible opponent for the Cai challenger.

She HT Shaw Avenue, Union Coun Husband Slayer Planned Bold Coup to Get Child Mrs. Sokolowsky Had Disguises Ready for Trip to New Haven to Steal Girl, When Arrest Spoiled Scheme; Shields Name of Her Parents To-day Mrs. Alexandria Sokolowsky meant to visit New Haven, risk arrest on the charge of killing her husband, find Adona, her daughter of five, and lead her away into hiding. Instead of that she aits in the Tombs, n forlorn figure of an actual Russian tragedy. Frank Sokolowsky, the husband she tried to keen from other women by disfiguring him with carbolic acid June 26, is lost to her forever. She faces the charge of his murder. It is probable1 that the little girl will never be in her arms again. The police received last night from Mrs. Araham Moiseyeff, of f>01 West 122d Street, clothes which Mrs. Soko¬ lowsky had hoped to us« to capture her child. They included a neat boy's suit of blue, intended as a disguise for lit¬ tle Adona, and a black veil, a new hat .and other bits of dress that might have hidden Mrs. Sokolowsky's identity. Mrs. Sokolowsky had been taking care of Mrs. MoiseyotT's baby Leon during lier ten days in New York. Leon is seven months old, has curly yellow hau and blue eyes. He cried when Mrs Sokolowsky went away with the detec tives. She had been singing strängt Russian lullabies to Leon and making much of him, ^\'as Making Coats for Leon Mrs»J3okolowsky had nearly fmishei making two pretty -white coats fo Leon when detectives caught her ou walking in a red suit which had bcei mentioned in a circular about her. "She had told me as a joke that sh expected to be arrested in that as Bolshevik," Mrs. Moiseyeff said. "Sh always went into a back room whe strangers called. She intended t leave on Tuesday for the country, sh said, but I believe now Mrs. Soko! owsky was going for her little gir She was very good to Leon, but sh was sick in bed for two days. One she came in looking deathly pale an told me that she almost fell dowi Then I said that she couldn't carr Leon around and would have to loo for another place." A reporter was talking with Mr: Sokolowsky in trie Tombs yesterda «rhert her former neighbor Mrs. Walter Kelley walked in with Detective Cur¬ rier, of New Haven. The prisoner threw out her arms and cried: "Oh, Mrs. Kelley, where is my little girl?" Mrs. Kelley replied that the New Haven authorities had charge of Adona. Then Mrs. Sokolowsky broke down and Mrs. Kelley departed. She was called merely to identify, the prisoner. "I not want to kill my husband," Mrs. Sokolowsky said, brokenly, "I want keep him. I'm afraid he leave me again and Adona have no father. So I pour car¬ bolic acid. Other women they care for his good looks, I think, but not me. I caro just for him, just the same with¬ out good looks." Left Child With Mrs. Kelley Mrs. Sokolowsky said that she left, her child with Mrs. Kelley, and came to New York. Five days later her yearning for little Adona overcame all fear, and she went to New Haven, and walked up and down Heers Street, past her home, straining her eyes for a glimpse of the girl. Then she returned to New York and got work. She came from Russia seven years ago, and as a dressmaker in Boston met the labor leader, whom she mar¬ ried there. They lived six years in Canada. Sokolowsky abandoned her and came to New York. She followed him, and by accident met him ten months later in Douglass Street, in Brooklyn, where the woman thai aroused her jealousy is said to be liv¬ ing now. Sokolowsky took his wife inte a home at 137 West Seventeenth Street "He tell me he bo a good man if 1 not be jealous« and I tell him I not b( jealous if he be a-good man." is the way she expressed it. "But I find lovi letters in his coat from otner womai. I could not read in English, but nn friend translate, and the lcttirs sa;, how shf suffer for him, and he wan to go with her. But I am afraid, ant I put back the letters." She ¡¡owed no emotion when ar vaigned in the Tombs court. Magis trato Karl A. Smith committed he here for thirty days, pending cxtradi «.ion. Coroner Eli Mix, of New Haven interviewed her. Bridge Delay Causes Roundabout Runs - Repairs on Span Over Raritan River Won't Be Com¬ plete for Month Motorists Light Lamps To-day, 8:43 p. m. Wednesday, August i, 8:42 p. m. Thursday, August 5, 8:41 p. m. The expectation that the bridge over the Raritan River between Perth Am- boy and South Amboy would soon be open for automobile traffic to Jersey points is upr>et by the latest word from the contractors on the repair job. Only ¡ive days were put in last week, and it now appears likely that the bridge will not be available for at least four weeks. This will make it necessary for motorists bound to places along the. New Jersey coast to take a round¬ about road. The route most of them will take is through Newark, Eliza¬ beth, Rahway and Metuchen to New Brunswick. Most of this road is poor. From New Brunswick one road is by way of South River, Old bridge, Spotts¬ wood and Freehold to Lakewood, Toms River and Abescon to Atlantic City. This is roughly about 15Û miles. To go to shore points, the motorist may drive from South River to South Amboy to Keyport and then to the coast. No matter what road is taken, it in¬ volves an indirect journey over high¬ ways for the most part in bad con¬ dition. The new pavement on Riverside Drive north of 135th Street is appar¬ ently of the permanent type and promises to stand up well under traf¬ fic. This sort of pavement also has been laid in Central Park. The pavement on upper Fifth Ave¬ nue shows the combined effects of the hot, weather and the use of the heavy busses. There are regular ridges alongside the curb on both sides of the avenue for a considerable distance from 110th Street, south. Repairs on the shore road north of Pelham Park are proceeding slowly ! and the road north to the state line at Portchcster is only lair through- out. The brick pavement in Port- ehester continues to be extremely rough and makes driving through that town uncomfortable. Put's Hill at Greenwich is still a great hazard for drivers. Any time when there is heavy traffic on the Po.-t Road there are bound to be several cars stalled on the hill. It ij not that the grade is beyond the climbing power of any car in fair condition but that inexperienced drivers get. them¬ selves tied up in knots when they reach the hill, and often times have to back up to get a fresh start. Arnstein Trial October 4 Slate Opposes Request of At¬ torneys for Earlier Date The trial of Jules W. ("Nickey") Arnstein on four indictments which charge, among other things, grand larceny in the first degree and the receiving: of stolen goods, was set yes- terday for Monday, October 4. This action »wan taken by Judge Thomas C. T. Crain in General Ses- sions following a request by William J. Fallón and Eugene F. McGee, at- torneys for Arnstein, that their client be placed on trial as soon as pos- sible. -McGee told the court that there had been too much delay in the matter and that Arnstein was anxious to es- tablish his innocence. Assistant District Attorney Sheridan opposed the motion for a speedy trial on the ground that the state had not had time to prepare its case because Assistant District Attorney John T. Dooling, who will be the prosecutor, was away on a vacation. Anthrax Kills Shoemaker Anthrax, believed to have been con- tracted from sole leather, caused the death at Bellevue Hospital yesterday of Philip Klemner, forty-three, a shoe¬ maker, of o"¿0 East Sixty-fifth Street. Klemper, an Austrian, was taken to Bellevue last Sunday night. Bedtime Stories Reddy Fox flakes Plans By Thornton W. Burgess Who trusts to luck in hope, of ffain Is almost sure to tratst in vain. .Reddy Fox. Roddy Fox is one who never trusts to luck. He is too shrewd and smart for that. If luck happens to come his way, all well and good; no ens is quicker to take advantage of luck than Reddy. But he never depends on it. When he was very young old Granny Fox taught him that trusting to luck was the surest way of gaining nothing. So Reddy always plans, and plans carefully, to get what he wants, and that is the reason he is considered one of the smartest of all the little people on the Creen Meadows and in the Green Forest. When he succeeds it is because he has carefully planned the matter all out beforehand. When he fails it is because something or some one interferes w;th his plans. Instead of hanging around the Old Briar-patch that night, when he discov¬ ered Peter Rabbit's secret, trusting to luck that one of those little Burnies might come outside, Reddy hurried away. He hoped he hadn't been seen. What is more, he didn't intend to go near the Old Briar-patci. again for some time. Ho wenr over to the Smil¬ ing Pool and there caught a dinner of foolish young Frogs. Then he went home to make plans. "Peter and Mrs. Rabbit have six babies," said Reddy, talking to him¬ self. "I know there are six because I found six different scents and I can always trust my nose. They are so small now that all six would make no more than one good meal. What is moro, Peter and, Mrs. Rabbit will not allow them to op more than one good jump away from the Old Briar-paten. I might surprise them and catch one, but one would be only a bite. But it would be pure luck if I succeeded in doing that. Young Rabbits grow fast. It won't be long before they will be half as big as Peter himself. About that time they will be getting head- strong and heedless. They will be at just the age to think they know all there is to know and are quite able to take care of themselves. They won't! be satisfied to stRy within one jump of the Old Briar-patch. They will dis- cover that there are patches of sweet clover fnrther out on the Green Meadows, and they will be sure that that clover is sweetç* and better than the clover eo near horn«. Sooaer or, "Peter and Mrs. Peter have six babies," said Paddy, talk¬ ing to himself. later one of them will slip away to sample that distant clover. "None of those youngsters has seen me yet. All they know about me is what Peter and Mrs. Peter have told them. If I keep away so that they don't have a chance to see me they will after a while begin to doubt if there is such a fellow as Roddy Fox. The thing for me to do is to be pa¬ tient and keep out -of their sight. By using my nose in the darkest hours of dark nights I can find out easily enough when they have begun to ivunder away from tha Old Briar- patch. Then early some evening 1 will hide rear one of those distant patches of sweet clover and a little later I will have the finest dinner I know, of.a dinner of young Rabbit." So Reddy made plans. And over in the rf?nr Old Briar-patch six little Rabbits played and ate and slept and grew and listened to tales of the dangers of the Great.World, and be¬ cause they saw nothing to fear thought their parents foolishly timid. (Copyright, 1920, by T. W. Burgee») Th« next story¿ "Lessons in Play.» 15,000 Pledge 4Sacred Blood' To Free Africa Marcus Garvey Proclaims World - Wide Movement to Redeem Native Land to People of His Race 30-Day Convention Open Madison Square Rings With Enthusiastic Cheers; Greetings to De Valera , Fifteen thousand negroes pledged their "sacred blood" for the liberty and freedom of Africa at the behest of their leader, Marcus Garvey, at a mass meeting in Madison Square Gar¬ der, last night. From the lofty galleries, from the rafters and from the floor of the arena, the pledge came in a rising crescendo of noise that gradually developed into a shriek, drowning ont the strains of the new negro national nnthem."Ethiopia! then land of our fathers." Standing on "an improvised plat-form, attired in a gorgous robe of purple, gold and green, Garvt-y worked the 15,000 members of his race to the fever pitch by his oratory. "The hour has come," he shouted in a shrill voice, "for the 400.000,000 ne¬ groes to claim Africa as their home. Africa shall be the home of the black peoples of the earth. We pledge our sacred blood on the fields of Africa for our liberty and our freedom." Beside him, in glittering raiment and beturbaned head, stood Denyki, a na¬ tive Prince of Lagos, whose impassive face lightened up momentarily when Garvey declared the negroes would tell England, Italy, France and Portugal "to get out." From all parts of tho world came the 15,000 delegates who packed the gar¬ den. They came to help frame the new Bill of Rights at the thirty-day con¬ vention which opened yesterday under the auspi-ces of the Universal Negro Improvement Association. Their behavior clearly demonstrated that to them Garvey was the very per¬ sonification of their desire. When he was introduced by Miss Henrietta Vin- ton Davis, the international organizer of the movement, the 15.000 rose to their feet and greeted their leader for fiv minute3 of enthusiastic cheering. This was repeated a moment later when Garvey shouted: "The time has come for our people to organize for the next great war that will decide the fate of the world, the war between the occidental and orien¬ tal civilizations for supremacy, which will be a survival of the fittest. That time will be opportune for the negroes to draw the sword for African redemp¬ tion. The hour has come when Africa shall become the domain of the black peoples of the world." Frequently throughout his speech Garvey, waving his purple enshrouded arm, mentioned Belgium, carefully slurring over the word, and each time a series of shrill hisses surged through, the vast 'nail from the assembled muir titude, interspersed with cries of "Congo." Before getting umicr way with his address Garvey read two telegram.--, one fr Louis Michel, a Jewish law¬ yer of I.os Angeles, expressing sym¬ pathy with the movement and declar¬ ing that there would be no peace in the world until Palestine was ruled by the Jew? and Africa by the negroes; and the other to Eamon de Valera, which read as follows: "Twenty-five thousand negro delegates assembled in Madison Square Garden in mass convention, representing 400,- 000,000 negroes of the world, send you greetings as President of the Irish Re¬ public. Please accept svmpathy of ne¬ groes of the world for your cause. We believe Ireland should be free, even as Africa shall be free for the negroes of the world. Keep up the fi°;ht for a free Ireland." Enthusiasm was the prevailing note of the convention. It even went to the extent of bringing the entire crowd to its feet to sins the virtues of the negro steamship line that some colored gen¬ ius had set tu jazz music. The tedious wait while the delegates v.-eii' arriving was relieved by a pro¬ gram of music. The other speakers were the Rev. Dr. J. W. Eason, chap¬ lain general of the movement, and Miss Davis. Police reserves were sta¬ tioned outside and inside the building. -».-.. Fire Threatens Ferryboat The Erie Railroad ferryboat James¬ town, with 100 persons aboard, was threatened with destruction by fire early yesterday morning when a gaso¬ line tank on a motor truck exploded. The ferryboat was in midstream, on its way from Pavonia Avenue,«Jersey City, to Manhattan. The gangway of the boat was ignited and passengers became panic-stricken. Tugs rushed to the burning craft and the flames were quickly extinguished. The Jamestown went back to her slip under her own steam. The darn- act' was estimated at $6,000. Frank O'Neill, twenty-seven, of Jersey City, a chauffeur, was burned. He was taken to the Jersey City Hospital. leather Report Sunriaes... 4:64 a.m. Sun sets... i:10p..m.

In weil informed yachting circlelast night it was believed that trCanadian challenge meant a return 1schooner yachts, designed in a geieral way after the America, vvhicbrought the famous trophy to thcountry in 1851.

This idea vas supported by the cetainty that .-Emilius Jarvis, premi«Corinthian of Canada, is to have tlwheel of the ne\t challenger.

Husband Slayer PlannedBold Coup to Get Child

Mrs. Sokolowsky Had Disguises Ready for Tripto New Haven to Steal Girl, When ArrestSpoiled Scheme; Shields Name of Her Parents

To-day Mrs. Alexandria Sokolowskymeant to visit New Haven, risk arreston the charge of killing her husband,find Adona, her daughter of five, andlead her away into hiding.

Instead of that she aits in the Tombs,n forlorn figure of an actual Russiantragedy.Frank Sokolowsky, the husband shetried to keen from other women bydisfiguring him with carbolic acidJune 26, is lost to her forever. Shefaces the charge of his murder. It isprobable1 that the little girl will neverbe in her arms again.The police received last night fromMrs. Araham Moiseyeff, of f>01 West122d Street, clothes which Mrs. Soko¬lowsky had hoped to us« to capture herchild. They included a neat boy's suitof blue, intended as a disguise for lit¬tle Adona, and a black veil, a new hat.and other bits of dress that might havehidden Mrs. Sokolowsky's identity.Mrs. Sokolowsky had been taking careof Mrs. MoiseyotT's baby Leon duringlier ten days in New York. Leon is

seven months old, has curly yellow hauand blue eyes. He cried when MrsSokolowsky went away with the detectives. She had been singing strängtRussian lullabies to Leon and makingmuch of him,

^\'as Making Coats for LeonMrs»J3okolowsky had nearly fmishei

making two pretty -white coats foLeon when detectives caught her ouwalking in a red suit which had bceimentioned in a circular about her."She had told me as a joke that sh

expected to be arrested in that asBolshevik," Mrs. Moiseyeff said. "Shalways went into a back room whestrangers called. She intended tleave on Tuesday for the country, shsaid, but I believe now Mrs. Soko!owsky was going for her little girShe was very good to Leon, but shwas sick in bed for two days. Oneshe came in looking deathly pale antold me that she almost fell dowiThen I said that she couldn't carrLeon around and would have to loofor another place."A reporter was talking with Mr:

Sokolowsky in trie Tombs yesterda

«rhert her former neighbor Mrs. WalterKelley walked in with Detective Cur¬rier, of New Haven. The prisonerthrew out her arms and cried:"Oh, Mrs. Kelley, where is my little

girl?"Mrs. Kelley replied that the NewHaven authorities had charge of Adona.Then Mrs. Sokolowsky broke downand Mrs. Kelley departed. She wascalled merely to identify, the prisoner."I not want to kill my husband," Mrs.Sokolowsky said, brokenly, "I want keephim. I'm afraid he leave me again andAdona have no father. So I pour car¬bolic acid. Other women they care forhis good looks, I think, but not me. I

caro just for him, just the same with¬out good looks."

Left Child With Mrs. KelleyMrs. Sokolowsky said that she left,her child with Mrs. Kelley, and cameto New York. Five days later her

yearning for little Adona overcame allfear, and she went to New Haven, andwalked up and down Heers Street, pasther home, straining her eyes for aglimpse of the girl. Then she returnedto New York and got work.She came from Russia seven years

ago, and as a dressmaker in Bostonmet the labor leader, whom she mar¬ried there. They lived six years inCanada. Sokolowsky abandoned herand came to New York. She followedhim, and by accident met him tenmonths later in Douglass Street, inBrooklyn, where the woman thaiaroused her jealousy is said to be liv¬ing now. Sokolowsky took his wife intea home at 137 West Seventeenth Street"He tell me he bo a good man if 1

not be jealous« and I tell him I not b(jealous if he be a-good man." is theway she expressed it. "But I find loviletters in his coat from otner womai.I could not read in English, but nnfriend translate, and the lcttirs sa;,how shf suffer for him, and he wanto go with her. But I am afraid, antI put back the letters."She ¡¡owed no emotion when ar

vaigned in the Tombs court. Magistrato Karl A. Smith committed hehere for thirty days, pending cxtradi«.ion. Coroner Eli Mix, of New Haveninterviewed her.

Bridge Delay CausesRoundabout Runs-

Repairs on Span Over RaritanRiver Won't Be Com¬

plete for MonthMotorists Light Lamps To-day,

8:43 p. m.

Wednesday, August i, 8:42 p. m.Thursday, August 5, 8:41 p. m.

The expectation that the bridge overthe Raritan River between Perth Am-boy and South Amboy would soon beopen for automobile traffic to Jerseypoints is upr>et by the latest wordfrom the contractors on the repairjob. Only ¡ive days were put in lastweek, and it now appears likely thatthe bridge will not be available for atleast four weeks.

This will make it necessary formotorists bound to places along the.New Jersey coast to take a round¬about road. The route most of themwill take is through Newark, Eliza¬beth, Rahway and Metuchen to NewBrunswick. Most of this road is poor.From New Brunswick one road is byway of South River, Old bridge, Spotts¬wood and Freehold to Lakewood, TomsRiver and Abescon to Atlantic City.This is roughly about 15Û miles. To goto shore points, the motorist may drivefrom South River to South Amboy toKeyport and then to the coast.No matter what road is taken, it in¬

volves an indirect journey over high¬ways for the most part in bad con¬dition.

The new pavement on RiversideDrive north of 135th Street is appar¬ently of the permanent type andpromises to stand up well under traf¬fic. This sort of pavement also hasbeen laid in Central Park.The pavement on upper Fifth Ave¬

nue shows the combined effects of thehot, weather and the use of the heavybusses. There are regular ridgesalongside the curb on both sides of theavenue for a considerable distancefrom 110th Street, south.

Repairs on the shore road north of

Pelham Park are proceeding slowly !and the road north to the state lineat Portchcster is only lair through-out. The brick pavement in Port-ehester continues to be extremelyrough and makes driving through thattown uncomfortable.

Put's Hill at Greenwich is still agreat hazard for drivers. Any timewhen there is heavy traffic on the Po.-tRoad there are bound to be severalcars stalled on the hill. It ij not thatthe grade is beyond the climbingpower of any car in fair condition butthat inexperienced drivers get. them¬selves tied up in knots when theyreach the hill, and often times haveto back up to get a fresh start.

Bedtime StoriesReddy Fox flakes Plans

By Thornton W. BurgessWho trusts to luck in hope, of ffainIs almost sure to tratst in vain.

.Reddy Fox.

Roddy Fox is one who never truststo luck. He is too shrewd and smartfor that. If luck happens to come hisway, all well and good; no ens isquicker to take advantage of luck thanReddy. But he never depends on it.When he was very young old GrannyFox taught him that trusting to luckwas the surest way of gaining nothing.

So Reddy always plans, and planscarefully, to get what he wants, andthat is the reason he is considered oneof the smartest of all the little peopleon the Creen Meadows and in theGreen Forest. When he succeeds it isbecause he has carefully planned thematter all out beforehand. When hefails it is because something or someone interferes w;th his plans.

Instead of hanging around the OldBriar-patch that night, when he discov¬ered Peter Rabbit's secret, trusting toluck that one of those little Burniesmight come outside, Reddy hurriedaway. He hoped he hadn't been seen.What is more, he didn't intend to gonear the Old Briar-patci. again forsome time. Ho wenr over to the Smil¬ing Pool and there caught a dinner offoolish young Frogs. Then he wenthome to make plans."Peter and Mrs. Rabbit have six

babies," said Reddy, talking to him¬self. "I know there are six because Ifound six different scents and I can

always trust my nose. They are so

small now that all six would make nomore than one good meal. What ismoro, Peter and, Mrs. Rabbit will notallow them to op more than one goodjump away from the Old Briar-paten.I might surprise them and catch one,but one would be only a bite. But itwould be pure luck if I succeeded indoing that. Young Rabbits grow fast.It won't be long before they will behalf as big as Peter himself. Aboutthat time they will be getting head-strong and heedless. They will be at

just the age to think they know allthere is to know and are quite able totake care of themselves. They won't!be satisfied to stRy within one jumpof the Old Briar-patch. They will dis-cover that there are patches of sweetclover fnrther out on the GreenMeadows, and they will be sure thatthat clover is sweetç* and better thanthe clover eo near horn«. Sooaer or,

"Peter and Mrs. Peter have sixbabies," said Paddy, talk¬

ing to himself.

later one of them will slip away tosample that distant clover."None of those youngsters has seen

me yet. All they know about me iswhat Peter and Mrs. Peter have toldthem. If I keep away so that theydon't have a chance to see me theywill after a while begin to doubt ifthere is such a fellow as Roddy Fox.The thing for me to do is to be pa¬tient and keep out -of their sight. Byusing my nose in the darkest hours ofdark nights I can find out easilyenough when they have begun toivunder away from tha Old Briar-patch. Then early some evening 1 willhide rear one of those distant patchesof sweet clover and a little later I willhave the finest dinner I know, of.adinner of young Rabbit."So Reddy made plans. And over in

the rf?nr Old Briar-patch six littleRabbits played and ate and slept andgrew and listened to tales of thedangers of the Great.World, and be¬cause they saw nothing to fear thoughttheir parents foolishly timid.

15,000 Pledge4Sacred Blood'To Free Africa

Marcus Garvey ProclaimsWorld - Wide Movementto Redeem Native Landto People of His Race

30-Day Convention OpenMadison Square Rings

With Enthusiastic Cheers;Greetings to De Valera

, Fifteen thousand negroes pledgedtheir "sacred blood" for the liberty andfreedom of Africa at the behest oftheir leader, Marcus Garvey, at a mass

meeting in Madison Square Gar¬der, last night. From the loftygalleries, from the rafters and fromthe floor of the arena, the pledge camein a rising crescendo of noise thatgradually developed into a shriek,drowning ont the strains of the new

negro national nnthem."Ethiopia!then land of our fathers."Standing on "an improvised plat-form,

attired in a gorgous robe of purple,gold and green, Garvt-y worked the15,000 members of his race to the feverpitch by his oratory."The hour has come," he shouted in

a shrill voice, "for the 400.000,000 ne¬groes to claim Africa as their home.Africa shall be the home of the blackpeoples of the earth. We pledge oursacred blood on the fields of Africa forour liberty and our freedom."Beside him, in glittering raiment and

beturbaned head, stood Denyki, a na¬tive Prince of Lagos, whose impassiveface lightened up momentarily whenGarvey declared the negroes would tellEngland, Italy, France and Portugal"to get out."From all parts of tho world came the

15,000 delegates who packed the gar¬den. They came to help frame the new

Bill of Rights at the thirty-day con¬vention which opened yesterday underthe auspi-ces of the Universal NegroImprovement Association.Their behavior clearly demonstrated

that to them Garvey was the very per¬sonification of their desire. When hewas introduced by Miss Henrietta Vin-ton Davis, the international organizerof the movement, the 15.000 rose totheir feet and greeted their leader forfiv minute3 of enthusiastic cheering.

This was repeated a moment laterwhen Garvey shouted:"The time has come for our people

to organize for the next great war thatwill decide the fate of the world, thewar between the occidental and orien¬tal civilizations for supremacy, whichwill be a survival of the fittest. Thattime will be opportune for the negroesto draw the sword for African redemp¬tion. The hour has come when Africashall become the domain of the blackpeoples of the world."

Frequently throughout his speechGarvey, waving his purple enshroudedarm, mentioned Belgium, carefullyslurring over the word, and each timea series of shrill hisses surged through,the vast 'nail from the assembled muirtitude, interspersed with cries of"Congo."

Before getting umicr way with hisaddress Garvey read two telegram.--,one fr Louis Michel, a Jewish law¬yer of I.os Angeles, expressing sym¬pathy with the movement and declar¬ing that there would be no peace inthe world until Palestine was ruled bythe Jew? and Africa by the negroes;and the other to Eamon de Valera,which read as follows:"Twenty-five thousand negro delegates

assembled in Madison Square Gardenin mass convention, representing 400,-000,000 negroes of the world, send yougreetings as President of the Irish Re¬public. Please accept svmpathy of ne¬

groes of the world for your cause. Webelieve Ireland should be free, even as

Africa shall be free for the negroes ofthe world. Keep up the fi°;ht for a freeIreland."Enthusiasm was the prevailing note

of the convention. It even went to theextent of bringing the entire crowd toits feet to sins the virtues of the negrosteamship line that some colored gen¬ius had set tu jazz music.The tedious wait while the delegates

v.-eii' arriving was relieved by a pro¬gram of music. The other speakerswere the Rev. Dr. J. W. Eason, chap¬lain general of the movement, andMiss Davis. Police reserves were sta¬tioned outside and inside the building.
