Hooch Selllni Changea. Of course, there is no putting of an end he Klling of hooch in Harlem, 4 is evidenced by the list of addresses of hooch joints published weekly In.lhr Age. A comparison of the current list and the list of even a few month ago sliows, however, a considerable number of changes. Many of the old places have been put out 01 i many remain, and new placet are cou.

being opened. Many of these hell holes are spcak easies of the vilest type, hut some of them are given the semblance of high class resorts, patterned after the swell dinner clubs vogue among certain classes of the "downtown (mart set and of the sporting element from aH over, cost a small fortune for a party to spend the evening In one of these placu. and so many of the resorts in Harlem are drawing an insidious but veritable color line they are catering specially to a certain class of whit patrons who are always liberally supplied with cash, and whose inclinations lead to unlimited expenditures in the learcn for illicit and unbridled pleasures. Cottoa Club Drawa Color Um. One of the most flagrant of these Harlem resorts is the Cotton Club, operated at Mind street and Lenox avenue, up stairs over the New Douglass Theatre, by a group of young Jews and others, altescd to have been connected formerly with the most active of the Harlem bootleggers.

The entertainers are all col 'ored mostly pretty young girls, of attractive form and features, with talent in singing and And the waiters who eater to the guests slightest desire, uttered or unexpressed, are colored young men. But the management ha no use for the colored man cf woman who comes as a patron. The first barrier set up is that of an extravagant cover charge. Each person Sroup is asscsscu something like just for the privilege of iHtA tUm nlnrA and sitting at a tinning tabic. But before the table is reached hats and coats and.

other paraphernalia must be left in the hands of piratical attendants, male or female, in charge of what are known as "cloak rooms. and which levy another heavy assessment before one's goods can be reclaimed. The simplest order is expensive. A bottle of the ordinary ginger ale or soda water bought ordinarily at the corner stand as "pop" for 5 ants a bottle, take? on dignity amid such surroundings and the unwary purchaser is mulcted of from 50 to 75 cents bottle. At the "desired guest, can have, usually, anything wanted, an order which includes high balls, cock tail or straight whiskey brings a check of alarming proportions, but if champagne is ordered, and it is as easily obtainable as anything else, then the waiter asks a fabulous sum ere the account is liquidated.

Host aad Gaettt 8eperated. But, ot" course, these barriers do not stop all tlie foolish colored folks and tome of them want to go to the Cotton Club. It they are admitted, they re. ccive scant courtesy and poorer service. And the air is surcharged with the suggestion that they are not wanted.

On entering, however, the party was brusquely itnol tliattf UrHllf I have ta scDaratc as colored and white patrons were not allowed to sit together, nnacr any cumstance, it being a rule of the estab ishmeint to keep the races apart from each ether. Of course, the party left The same complaint has long been lodged against Connie's Inn in the Lafayette Theatre building basement, Ulst street and Seventh avenue, it is even alleged that, in order to rid that resort of colerd patrons, Connie lmmerman financed the fitting up and operation of the Colored Comedy Vaudeville Club, recently reviewed in The Age as a "Monte Carlo Kesort Come To Harlem. which is located in the same building, but in the lJ2nd street corner basement. This allegation of drawing the color line, so far as The Age has been able tc discover, docs not apply to the several clubs and cabarets conducted by colored men, but only to these where Jewish and Italian ownership obtains.

Incidentally, referring to Connie Inn, considerable speculation obtains at to the attitude of the police authorities toward this place. It is bclived that the resort has no dance hall license, as the Com drnied a renewal months ago. but it is asserted as jt undeniable fac' that the patrons arc permitted to dance nightly. And it is also alleged that notwithstanding the fact that a Federal Court injunction against the selling of intoxicants has been standing against the place for some the patrons who arc in the know are served all the boorc they can pay for.

Pro ceeding with his arraignment, Sumlin said: Make Serious Charge. "Now the whole truth about this outbreak at Fisk is this: A croitn of law less, self important and more or less vicious students object to obeying the rules and rtgulation of the school, although these rules arc set forth plainly in the Fisk catalogue, want to commit acts if impropriety, such as they have been brazenly committing since the recent, walk out.

when they have felt free of restraint; want when caught in immoral, acts, as was the case with a senior girl arid a boy caught in Jubilee Hall last vcar, nut to he sent home, but to be forgiven and pern itted to remain in the school to pollute others; want to sit around under the trees on the grounds hugging as hey were doing on Saturday last, after they had struck, and when they were thrown on their socaHcd honor want to be free to wear skirts split almost to their waists, exposing their nakedness, as was seen on Monday last want lo convert, the noble 'isk into a pace of jazz and chaos, and. God be praised, President McKcnzic will not permit such, and. hence the attempt to displace him." i It is' pointed out that any such con ditioj as these words, of Sumlin indi cate would be the severest indictment possible of the McKrnzie administration, since it would show inability to preserve even ordinary standards of morality and deeenry. Sumlin is denounced in more than one quarter as a base fabricator, and is accused of willingly trucgling and debasing him self and his race lo curry. favir with white people.
