Topkaka, M. S.—Rev. J. R. Ramson, of the A. M. E. Church of Wichita, and other leading men of the race are fighting hard to persuade the Arkansas authorities to release Robert Hill to the Arkansas authorities.

Immorality Greater In Baltimore And Maryland Than In South
WORKERS SURPRISED
Local Agencies Unaware That So Many Children Are Born Out Of Wedlock
That one-fourth of all the colored children born in Baltimore each year are illegitimate. In the starting information made public in the week of the Children's Bureau of the Department of Labor, which Julia Lathrop, white, chief, Alto the number varie from year to year, says the report considerably over 500 of the 2,000 colored babies born annually.
For the State of Maryland, the percentage is slightly lower. In the 6,241 colored babies born in 1915, 1,295, or one fifth of their weight, were born out of women. This Federal average is 1.4 percent of the women who were not affected a consternation in local welfare circles. Mrs. Jenn Ross of the Day Nursery state that none of the colored organizations was engaged in welfare work of this kind, and that she knew no agency for prevention or control of illegitimate among-enjoyment people carried on by the race. She admitted that some of the children kept at the nursery were illegitimate.
Mrs. Donohue, white, of the Henry Watson's children Aid Society that handles applications for married mothers for support was in New York this week a tending a conference of Welfar Workers, but one of the secretaries volunteered the information that she could not vouch for the authenticity of the Federal Report because the Society had no figure of its own available.

At the mass membership meeting Monday night, Dr. A. W. Verson, builder of the University City, former Register of the United States and present pastor of Avery Chapel A. M. Church, Memphis, Tenn., the speaker, B. Calls, the speaker referred to the fact that Dr. Verson one of the foremost candidates for the Bishopric in his church, CAXATION, REPRESENTATION
Dr. Vernon talked for more than an hour on "Democracy and the Segro" with an case and finish that has hardly been equaled by any speaker at the meeting. He made a distinct contribution to the school question and now under State, when he declared "The man who argues for educational prohibitions or restrictions for any class of children would take the right of individual self-education and the option for the fullest possibilities away, from those who are axed to support the government. He places a dangerous and unjust advantage in the hands of others, and thus breeds tyranny and that is subversive of a sun and earth."
"The Negro who is satisfied with less than a man's chance is a traitor or a coward, exclaiming himself, while the man is heartily, the speaker then digressed long enough to pay his respects to the pussyfooters, who he said, before white men conceal and refused to racial control, who was in the minds of the people. "If these men cannot protest against the inequalities the courts, in the school, and in business, then at least they owe it to them, the quiet, and the unhappy," he insisted."
The former register also warned the audience of the biggest biocide blockade by the people to deter them from imminent decent treatment."

THE WHITE MAN DOES
NOT KNOW IT ALL
My wife surrendered from lung trouble and had three different doctors. The last was a popular white doctor. The second was a black doctor. The last gave up my wife declaring that he had done all he could and in fact more could be done. He had 165 degrees fever, place, 122. A Baltimore friend advised us to call Dr. L. and Dr. Nervy Specialist, 1269 N. Carry street, Baltimore, and he came to Washington, DC, to see my wife. He returned my wife was out of bed, and pulse reduced to normal. I spent 50 minutes since and is also to do part of her house work. Christmas I told the white doctor, Dr. L. that I considered and said we would take his hat off to the doctor who could do such grand work. Anyone can come and see. 1924 15th St. N. W. N. W. D. C.

AFTERMATH OF BISHOPS' MEETING
Now that the bishops of the A. E. and the A. M. E. Zion churches have come together for monthly meeting, specialization is being induced, regarding what will take place at the coming General Conferences of the two twin cities what part of the colored Methodist bodies will play, the elections bishops, and general officers used to among the congregants who were attained by both sessions.
We were a decided sentiment, and the A. M. E. ministers for the election of at least three bishops were some, however supervised. It seems that the superintendent, Bishop Smith may be retired and the position of historian held by the bishop will be part of a minister will be devoted to take the place of the bishop C. T. Shaffer.
Rev. R. W. Simpson Brooks
signed on the all sides for the
Church to make a deep impression
all over the country. Rev. A. J. Carey of Chicago; Rev. R. W. Mancee of Columbia, S. C. and C.
and the Alton Christian Endeavor
League, among those reported
strongly in the running. Rev.
J. Johnson of Johnson, and
Mountain, I. of Georgia, are
also candid. Their danger is
in a sit delegation from
Georgia, who is in an important
State in the nation of affairs.
Rev. R. B. Basson, I. of W. Hop-
som, S. F. Felde A. L. Gaines, H.
W. Mixon, J. Huntzer, J. N.
Morrison, J. W. Negus, R. J. Hemp
and R. J. Hemp are also
among those mentioned. Dr. R.
C. McBrokow was to be bishop
for South America.
Rev. R. W. Simpson resigned as
head of the Minisigal Council of
the A. M. E. Church in order that
his candidacy may not interfere
with the bishop's office.
Rev. J. C. Robinson was
deposed in his place.
The A. M. E. Mineral Council refused to work at the coming General Conference. Be the abolitionist. They favored the abolition of one or two additional consensual districts and recommended the rotation of bishops.
The Council of A. M. E. Zion bishops transacted a large volume of business. While the demonstration has not much strength in Maryland, it has a considerable influence. Their offices are all young men and all of the bishops, save one, are comparatively young.
The Pennsylvania Avenue Church had been remoted for the session of A. M. E. Zion bishops, as well as for the session of the Philadelphia and Baltimore Annual Conference, including, under whose pastorate the church and congregation was moved from South Baltimore, was especially profuse in his conglutions of the work accomplished by present pastor, Rev. J. M. Meyers.
Rexs F. M. J. Macos, H. J. C. Callis, J. B. Holding and E. D. W. Wojtos are among those mentioned for the bishopric.
Bishop George L. Blackwell drafted the address that the bishop will read before the next A. M. General Conference, which meets at Knoxville, Tenn., in May. Bishop J. S. Flipper made the tentative draft of the one that will be presented at the A. M. General Conference of St. Louis in May.
The job of secretary to the bishop is to no longer have you will find the one you ask Bishops John Bust and George C. Clement.
Much regret was expressed when he was metched Bethel Church that Bishop D. F. Lee was in Norfolk.
Mrs. Ida Smith, president of the Women's Missionary Society of the A. M. E. Zion Church, reported that 520,000 has been raised within the missionary were drawn, the signatures being certified by City Councilman W. L. Flitzgard, who is also a notary public. The society intends doing more extensive work in Africa. Prof. W. S. Scarborough, for the past eight years president of Liberation Church, is an bandleader. Dr. D. C. Suggs, president of Livingstone College.
Rev. H. J. Callis will preside the A. M. E. Zion General Conference to show a larger lay representation.
Woman's Day Services
Women's Day services were observed at Sharp Street Memorial, M. E. Church Sunday. Rev. E. R. Harris preached in the morning. Mrs. E. R. Harris, of New Bedford, Mass.: Miss E. Turpeau and Mrs. Emma. Truxon were among the speakers at other services.
New Yorker Preaches
W. H. Brooks, pastor of St. Mark's M. E. Church, New York city, preached at the Men's Day services at John Wesley M. E. Church last Sunday morning. Rev. E. M. Mitchell, of Staunton, Va. filled the pulpit at night.
"Ministerial Courtesy"
In a paper delivered before the Baptist Ministers Conference at the Union Baptist Church late Monday, Rev. Robinson visited ministers who visited churches, "parade up the aisles to the rostrum, shake hands with everybody, remove coats; arrange a general meeting," he said. He declared that such ministers whether knowingly or unknowingly distract attention. Rev. Robinson also scored the ministers who interrupted their services to the rostrum by visiting ministers he said, should be whispered to the ushers. The subject was "Ministerial Courtesy."
Third church conference of First Independent A. M. B. Church convened Monday night. February 16th, 1920. The conference was very large. The ministers of the reports were fine. We have raised during the quarter, $80.51.
With Visitors
Successful Revivals.
There were 171 accessions as a result of the recent revival at Shiloh Baptist Church. The union revival between Mt. Zion, Amoron, Amoron and Sharpe, Amoron, Mt. Eden, and in the last unrest church, resulted in 163 conversions.
Dr. Wragg Here
Boy, Dr. J. B. Wrengg, of the American Bible Society, was in the city this week for a call to discuss the disruptions she one at Atlanta, among the Negroes. Headquarters for the same will be at New York, Charlotte Memphis, Atlanta, and Memphis. Tex. will be in charge at New York. Dr. Wrengg will be in charge at New York.
DELEGATES LINING UP.
Women May be Included in Those Seats to General Conference of M. E. Church.
With the General Conference of the M. E. Church several weeks off, candidates are already lining up and a spirited contest is expected at John Wesley Church, where the ministers will attend. Among the ministers are Reeves Erasmus Lyon, M. J. Naylor, A. Mitchell, W. J. W. Thompson, and M. J. W. Thompson are most prominently and will very likely run in the order named. Three of possibly four will be named. William Pickens, Julius Love of West Virginia, Attorney M. Ford of Washington, George T. Beacon of Washington, I. Gurhard Penn, Lynchburg, Va., and Misses Elfth Cooper and an unidentified aspirant to the aspirants. Four of four of these may be elected. Dr. Pickens standing has not been affected by reason of his resignation from Morgan College, and he will be unobligated on the first
The determining factor in the election is said to be the attitude of the delegates on the proposal memorial of the Cunicees North and South, the fact that the North will be Maitland North, the fact that Dr. Fickens have expressed themselves as opposed to the scheme will make them run ahead of the field.
PAYS TRIBUTE, TO
FREDERICK DOUGLAS.
Monroe Troster Delivers Address Before Large Audience at Allen Church.
A fineribute to Frederick Donglass as a man who always stood uncompromisely for race equality was the statement he by W. Monroe Troster speaking to the M. E. C. Church at afternoon.
"It is peculiarly littering, he said that we celebrate the 102nd birthday of this noble man who was born in Maryland. Donglass bad courage, light as a man, down on his knees in the Eastern Shores he had the desire for liberty, escaping from slavery right here in Baltimore.
"Donglass stood for equality before the law and he also was first for that attribution to the sovereign it was he who caused the勾ition of the Jim Crow car in Massachusetts, because when they tried to make him enter the separate coach at Lynn, Mass, long before the Civil War he tore half of the seats
The colored people fought in the days of the Revolutionary War only to see a sham democracy established, when the people of the province which read "All men are created and equal was a sham, when the people of the province who fought for help to knock out that sham democracy, Frederick Douglass, by his oratory and his pen, was alliding them. The strong opposition was the sham democracy of the province of war, threatened the extermination of the white races, the colored soldier was called in. Those who served for this country expected that the sham democracy of the province about would be theirs also. What the race needs today is mary of the spirit of Frederick Douglass. We must fight to have the Republicus in Congress to remove the race." Mr. Trotter gave a vivid recital of his many efforts to reach the Peace Conference after colored Americans learned how he finally got there by subfurem, selling as a cook on the steamer Varmouth, and presented a declaration to the delegates to the Peace Conference prescriptions and for fair treatment.
FINDS MANY
CHANGES HERE
Former A. M. E. Zion Pastor Tells Of Old Baltimore
Rev. George Kinechal, pastor of E. M. Zion Church from 1893 to 1893, was in the city to attend the Council of Bishops of the A. M. E. Zion Church and to renew old acquaintance with the Pennsylvania Avenue Church Sunday.
"There have been wonderful changes in your city since the pastor presented to the representative of the Afro-American. "I knew the leading men here during that day. Rev. Dr. William H. T. Brown, Bishop of the American, H. T. Brown, Rev. Harvey Johnson, Hiram Watty and a few others wielded a big influence. C. C. Pitzgerald, shark Hawkins, M. C. Pitzgerald, shark Hawkins were then struggling young lawyers. As I note now the wonderful progress made and the many fine homes occupied, I must say that Baltimore has made great
"There was one time that the A. M. E. Zion Church was quite strong here. Our church at Howard and Morgantown church which later became a public congregation is a very strong congregation. At one time we had the home which Wators Church later acquired on Spring street. The church when I pastored here was located at Cross and Warners removed to Pennsylvania Avenue on Rev. B. J. Bolding was pastor."
Dr. Kincaid was preceded here as pastor by a West Indian. The latter went to England and married a white woman. When he returned the congregation would not have him.
**Luncheon For Ministers**
The Baltimore M. E. Ministerial Meeting will keep "open house" at sharp Street Memorial M. E. Church on Monday to minister to the ministers who will be here to attend the annual session of the Washington M. E. Conference, which begins at John Wesley M. E. Church the Wednesday day following.

CLOSER THAN EVER
Great Likelihood That Two Independent Branches Of Methodist Will Combine.
Organic union between the Colored Methodist bodies was urged to be attracted here by the semi-annual sessions of the bishops of A. M. E. Zion and the A. M. E. Church, a big audience was present at Ethel Church with A. M. E. Bishop and a fraternal visit to the A. M. E. bishops Thursday afternoon of last week. Bishop W. D. Chappelle, who delivered the address of greeting touched upon the question of infliction, the Lord was responded, struck a popular vein when he urged infliction.
The sentiment for coalition was given additional-impetus when the A. M. E. bishops returned the coy spirit, brotherly assistance to the Pennsylvania Avenue A. M. E. Zion Church last Friday afternoon. Bishop W. W. Beckett, clasping together the hands of Bishop Evans Tyrece and George W. Clinton, urged the bishop to address, which bristled with the spirit of unification, was enthusiastically received. Bishop George

C. Clement, secretary of the A. M. E. Zon bishops, asserted that the union of colored Methodism would mean a very strong Negro community that the unification sentiment among colored Methodists had hastened the plans of white Methodists for organic union. The three denominations have their schools and other interests in the church, said Bishop Clementes, that three is not much competitive rivalry now. Unification would make a strong Negro denomination of 1,500,000 members and attend a small church in a small community. The Colored Methodist Episcopal Church went on record at its best General Conference on favoring organic unity. The other two denominations are expected to take up the question at their quadrennial sessions in May.
The Friendly Progressive Dance Feb. 16, 1920 was a success. The hall was beautifully decorated. Two prizes were awarded, first to Miss to Miss Mattle Lawns, second prize awarded to Miss Mattle Lawns, second prize awarded to Miss Mattle Lawns, third prize awarded to Miss Mattle Lawns. The dress was gray geometric crepe trimmed with blue embroidery.

Just as soon as the city gets its member on the School Board, its assistant superintendent of schools and a few more appointments of colored men on juries, the police situation will bear looking into. Since colored people are taxed to pay the police force for protection, they ought to have a choice about picking some of the cops out themselves. Detroit has employed colored police TO AVOID RACE FRICTION. Some of the police troubles in the Northwest and Southeast sections of Baltimore can be avoided by giving colored cops a chance on the force.

AN ALBIR THAT WON'T WORK

The failure of Maryland to ratify the proposed Nineteenth Amendment to the Constitution simply postpones its adoption for a few months more. Thirty-one States have already declared for the eight of women to vote, and it will not be unusually hard to get the remaining five States. Maryland women, white and colored, will one day vote in spite of the State crowd at Annapolis.
The reason given by politicians for turning down the "suff" was declared to be the fear that Negro women will have the chance to vote. As a matter of fact the real reason is that the bosses and grafters now in power apprehend that the white woman, once enfranchised, might do a little political house-cleaning.

but may be interested in the following paragraphs from a recent bulletin of the Department of Labor.
One of the greatest sources of untapped human resource is in the black race. We are the working population of the United States is colored, and yet few of us employ colored help unless absolutely necessary. We are are prejudiced against blacks in this prejudice may be justified. There are, however, exceptions to every rule, and many colored workers in lines could become valuable and merchants if a proper point of contact could be established. Owing to this prejudice it is possible to secure colored lawyers, and men trained in other professions for one-half the salary that these people would get if they were white. This does not mean that colored lawyers for less than a living wage. It does, however, mean that for $5,000 or $1,800 you can get a good colored man, who, if he were not receiving $5,000 or $5,000.
Readers who are interested in studying further this question may contact E. Haynes, director of Negro economies of the United States Department of Labor. In connection with this work Dr. Haynes states one of the most significant pieces of work begun, but not yet completed on account of failure of appropriations, was the study of industries that employed Negro workers during 1918-19. The study was begun before the close of World War II and present year. Up to the time it was stopped, records from 244 typical plants employing Negroes in seven States with a total of 10,000 plant and industrial, had been secured.
"The final figures are not yet available, but two general indications have been announced by the department all these plants. Negro workers and white workers were employed appropriately good sitting on both sides of the table, there an exception, the Negro workers in the matter of turnover, biscocneitic, wage scales, quantity of work, they are employed, compared favorably with the white workers to the same plant<sup>3</sup> on the same site.

I have long since maintained that the Negro problem was one of adjusting more and more perplexing. I feel that the best way to arrive at a common ground is for representatives of both races to get to know each other, and from all angles. The Negroes of Baltimore had a golden opportunity presented to them and judging from the account of the conference published in the Baltimore Sun, pzcd.

Writer believes That Morgan. College ought to Change Its Reporter.
I was very much disgusted last week to attend a meeting of the Inter-racial Conference at the Friends Meeting Center in Chicago, a spottedite of Morgan College. "The boys have good voices that blend very nicely, but listen every selection song except one," was the response. "Old Black Joe," and this was what disgusted me. Can you imagine four young men supposed to be attending school of higher learning singing like the darkies are a weeping. "All the darkies are a weeping. Any one of these men or any of the colorful men who have been insulted that someone called them a darky even in 'fun,' and yet they were singing the word, as if it meant nothing to them, so they were insulted." Of their white instructors? If
THE FORUM
We do not agree with Judge Soper who remarked that colored people want places on juries more as a "matter of recognition than as a measure of justice." When judges violate the spirit of the Constitution by excluding men of a certain race from juries, it is not for them to surmise as to the reason why that race wants justice.
Most of all do we most emphatically take exception to the address of Principal Mason A. Hawkins, who declared that the school situation "is hopeful, very hopeful." With just about one third of the colored children in Baltimore in the high school, who have a right to be there, with the high school doomed for another two or three years to a building out grown nine years ago, with no facilities in the high school for a thoro business course, a thoro technical course, a thoro vocational course, and no plans for a junior high school; with the right parents are making in Baltimore to place colored men on the School Board and in the office of superintendent of schools in order to call these things to the attention of proper authorities, and with parents of the county schools making the fight at Annapolis for equal pay for colored school teachers, it did seem that Mr. Hawkins might have discussed these problems instead of of the "glittering generalities" that he fell into.
Putting all of these thing on the debt side there yet remain encouragingly plainspoken views of Miss Edyth Cooper, Dean William Pickens, Miss Elizabeth Gliman, Rev. S. A. Virghi, Professor Queen and others, of no little value to be placed upon the credit side. The bright light of truth at the Interracial Conference "flickered" occasionally but it did not "izzle out."
THE STATE CAN HELP CHANGE THESE CONDITIONS
The high rate of illegitimacy in Baltimore and Maryland is something that no one can close his eyes to. who wants to make this commonwealth a better place in which to live. The child born out of wedlock has less care at birth, less chance for home training, less opportunity for an education, less inclination to keep away from immorality himself than the legitimate child. There is no welcome on the door for the infant, who must take his mother's name. The size of the father sometimes are visited upon it by society, which does not reflect that least of all is the child at fault. Reducing the rate of illegitimacy is improving social and moral conditions. It is a task for white and black together. The fault is theirs: For three centuries white America mated black men and women together and with others of the red and white races just as they bred live stock. In fifty years a race cannot forget the lesson of three centuries.
Nor is there an altogether dark side to this question. Compared with many more enlightened nations of Europe the illegitimacy rate of colored people in Baltimore (24.5 per cent) is, according to the Federal Report, lower than that of Paris (25.5 per cent) France; Stockholm (23.5 per cent) Sweden, Vienna, Austria (30.1 per cent); Brehapst, Hungary (26.3 per cent), and Berlin, Germany (25.6 per cent).
Compared with the illegitimacy rate of the mixed races in South Africa the table shows Baltimore 24.5 per cent—South Africa 30.6 per cent; with the Banties, a native black race not yet affected by the ways of whites the table reads: Baltimore 24.5 per cent, Bantus 11.2 per cent, which of course refute the oft made charges that the Negro is inherently immoral.
Immorality in this city can be minimized, if the people will. The police can be directed to break up resorts of ill fame run for white and colored patrons; a State institution for feeble-minded will rid the community of a large number of persons, who are its greatest offenders in immorality; the city can do its part in regulating housing conditions, if larger provision for maternity hospitals and public care of illegitimates.
No one who reads the Federal Report and its certification by the State Board of Health can question the high rate for colored and the low rate for white. However, it must be said that whites know better than colored how to conceal immorality.
The death of R. W. Thompson in Washington last week brings prominently to mind the prominent part that the Negro newspaper correspondent should play in moulding sentiment for the race. Thompson wrote for a string of newspapers as a side line and his weekly letters mad chill known all over the country. He was essentially a product of the day when nearly every professional man of the race furnished news gratis to some newspaper. The Thompson seldom dealt with the momentous questions affecting the race, his florid style in presenting his stories of current happenings was appreciated by a large circle of readers. He was a forerunner of the present day journalism, when race journals recognize the necessity for especially trained and veil correspondents in order that their thousands of readers may not only get the news in approved form, but intelligent interpretation of events as they affect the race.
The army of suffragists who invaded Annapolis the other day in a vain effort to have the Legislature ratify the Susan K. Anthony Amendment, probably did not know that a famous Maryland-born colored man—Frederick Douglass—was an advocate of equal suffrage when his supporters were, but few. Miss Anthony and other women prominent in the cause leamed on him for support and advice. It is worth noting that when Douglass died in Washington in February, 1855, the National Woman Suffrage Convention was in session in Washington and that Miss Anthony was one of the first to reach the Douglass home after hearing of the death of the great champion of race rights and equality for women.
The meeting of the Lincoln League, held in Chicago last week, the attended by men who have long been in the public eye in matters political, will not accomplish much for the race if the prominent colored Republicans connected therewith sacrificed principle for expediency. What the country needs and especially the colored people, is that the Republican party reclaim its time-honored principles of civility for all men.

To the Editor:—
Seeing the controversy in the daily news papers, the fight, the admittance of the colored man and Firemen's Union, I have made inquiries from Mr. Clinton C. Richardson, president of the Fire Board what was the object in doing such and he thought justified in taking for the soul reason that the fireman union was organized for the purpose of preventing the colored man from gaining an office. He rather supo that the new city charter thrown open the doors of the city Fire Department to both races and he being chairman of the republican party thinks its his place to be. He colored man as well as the white man, therefore explain to the colored race the soul reason and the purpose for the step he has taken hoping that the young colored man will advantage and grasp this opportunity.

While I sang song,

So I live a hundred years.
I washed my face and hands this morning;
So I'd breathe the fresh air right,
I would keep my health rules all right.

That I feel since you are not her.
His devotee is Emma O. Carrrell.
I mourn for you dear father,
But not with outward show;
But not with inner sorrow since
Mourn silently and how.
Can we forget? Not, in our hearts
There lies a sacred place where,
Hid from mortal eyes, dwells strong
and pure.
A lover never dies nor can forget
by his daughter, JESSE VALENTINE.

But not tears shed
When others are asleep.

"WHEN BEARCAT
WENT DRY"
- One of the biggest light scenes ever shown in a motion picture is shown in this thriller. It is a battle royale between fifty men and takes place in the mountains: of Kentucky and is between a gang of moonshiners. The story of "When Bearcat Went Dry" has an appeal for every red blooded American. Its scenes are laid in the Kentucky Cumberlands, where the elements of life are rugged and where majesty and moongreness endure by side.
The men who play the principal characters of this drama of mountain life know no fear, nor have they any regard for man made laws. Worshiping God, they hold women as sacred charge, and the living of life is such as was the old one, or not more ago.

Prescription C-2223 is a liquid medicinal preparation that stands above all other remedies as an alternative of great power. It restores normal functions to those organs or tissues which are not performing their full work. It changes diseased conditions into conditions of health. It relieves certain congested and irritable conditions of the mucous membrane and has marked influence on the intestinal organs in removing impure and waste products from the body.
Prescription C-2223 is really an unusual compound of certain valuable medicinal agents and can be depended on to give results where all other treatments have failed, because it is the private formula of a prominent and successful physician, now long since retired.
This Prescription has given relief to so many thousands who suffered from diseases caused by poisoned blood, that the manufacturers authorize druggists to give back the $3.00 paid for two $1.50 bottles, if the treatment, when taken according to directions, does not give satisfying relief.
If your druggist cannot supply you with $1.50 bottles write Dept. A, 2223 Laboratory, Memphis, Tenn., for literature, 1920 Almanac and samples of 2223 Liver Pills.

Dixon Worlds Champion.
Dixon on July 28, 1881. Knocked out
the Wills, feathery-wreath champion
of England, in five rounds and thus
encourages the world champion of his.
When Dixon found Solly Smith at
San Francisco in 1887, the latter got
the referee's decision in twenty rounds.
Solly was the winner of Sullivan which was found at close island September 26, 1888, when breaking his arm and being
melled to spit in the fifth round.
Sullivan which was found at close island and they met in the Los Angeles A. C. New York. November
1881 and Dixon retrieved his title
stoppage and stopped Sullivan seconds entering
to regain a knockout.
Flixon relied the title match June 19, 1900, when he was knocked out by a 15-4 victory in the ninth round. The match was 15 pounds although Bixon and been meeting other opponents as high as 125 to 150 pounds, but the team created the impression that the limit of the feathweight class was 122 pounds round, but Coulurre paid no attention that and made the weight to suit the case of Mélangeau Goulburns champion it would win the Brooklyn toe to make 15 pounds, and for that alone named that pouching a champion.

albatross, out of sight at Al-

round contest at Albuquerque, Pa. Feb.
"Lil Arthur" Sigall didn't get a hand when he appeared in the ring out. At Britt, of Baltimore, did. There was quite a time getting ready for action and at the get away it looked as though it would be some mill, Britt carried the light to Sigall for the first two rounds and then set back and force Sigall to become the first victory. There was considerable aggressor and it brought the colored boxing in two-thirtieth honors were pretty even. There was a claim made of a foul by Britt in this round but it was not allowed. The fourth was lively and full of action. The pair of fighters went after each other and went into a clinch. They were broken and continued to punch at each other. Both claimed fours and then went at each other wildly with the result that Britt got one on the chin that put him down and he took a count of nine, got to his feet and washed into a clinch. Separated the pair went together again and Britt went down a second time. Another punch from Sigall and he was down and out.

"Y" BIG FIVE WINS AND LOSES
In one of the liveliest scars seen on the local court this season, the Howard University Sophomores last Saturday night by the close score of 23-0. Altoft from first-though one would think the Sophomores represented the varsity five that played through the first half. X boys not long after the game started that they were up against a "real" team, so the locals managed to break even during the first half. Harris of the locals focused managed to break even during the evidently been tipped off as to his prowess at shooting goals and they kept it. Harris he did get clear at "couple" times and as always his shooting was fast. The referee would call focus on the visitors, "Chipty" Taylor would count them, and this ended with keep up with the fast scoring visitors.
The second half was "tight". It was neck and neck all the way home. Long shots from everywhere by the Howardites nearly broke the morale of the "Y" boys who were rallied by the frantic rooting of the crowd that kept calling for victory. Shade-displaced one guard after another, Butler alone remaining at his post, until finally Slade himself jumped into the breach and got in two nice baskets that caused the crowd to "break out" into a fresh bedlam of noise, and when Taylor shot two more fouls there was "nothing to it", and with the game sewed up it merely remained for the referee's whistle to end the festivities, and send the Washingtonians back to their home town with a defeat tucked in their jeans.
As a generalissimo of the entire game, referees Bantum gave very pleasing service, his decision invariably being fair and undisputed. Little in the way of foul play escaped him, although he was not unnecessarily tight.
QUAKER CITY LADS DOWN BALTIMOREANS
Getting sweet revenge for their defeat at the hands of the local boys last year, the five of the Wissablekon school of Philadelphia, crushed the machine of the "YearBig Five". Tuesday night in the former's home town by the score 27-20. The local boys attribute their showing to the fact that the Quaker City boys played under widely different rules from the ones the other had been playing there, and also appeared to the Philadelphiaers to play one half of the game under their own rules, and the other half under the rules with which the "Y" was familiar their appeal proved futile, so that they were severely handicapped. They showed pluck and spirit however, and the score is sufficient evidence that the Quakers had not have a run-away.
