The Governor's telegram, which was made public by the association, also said he had wired Mayor Cauffiel "asking him for a full statement of facts and reason for action today."

The association protested "against this high handed injustice through such deportation of men regardless of their immigration status, skims are black and pointed out that "the only action that should have been taken would have been to seek out and punish the guilty."

The Mayor said that the Governor hold his colored associations, were deported to New York, were deported order, and that as Chief Executive of the State, he was under obligation to safeguard all classes of people. In his reply, the Mayor says he held the Governor that because Negroes were not deported, in which three policemen died and three others were seriously wounded, were such that he could not guarantee safety to Negroes remaining here. The order of Mayor Griffith which has gotten his newspaper was printed in Johnstown's newspaper, Friday morning, September 7th. ALL RAD TO LEAVE Among other things the Mayor was quoted as saying on that occasion, "I don't care what authority I have. For their own safety and for the safety of the Negroes are going out of this city. Most of them are out now and the rest of them are going fast."

He was referred to as a special counsel over other kinds of dictates, 3,000 colored people are said to have left the town. Backing up this interview with the newspaper, Mayor Cauliflower ordered all colored people who had come to Johnstown in the last seven years to leave the town at once, and the colored people appearing in the Mayor's police court on charges of "suspicion," drunkenness and other trivial offenses which were not even proved, have been asked by the Mayor what would happen to them in the past two weeks had killed and injured white policemen. Answering his own question, the Mayor has told them they would hang from the nearest tree.

SCI Philadelphia CANDIDATE FOR PHILLY MAYOR WITHDREW Duckery's Name Remains However, on Republican Ballot, and He Polled 963 Votes DICKINSON LOSES Colored Candidate for Municipal Judge Doublecrossed by Republicans Philadelphia, Sept. 20.—By over 200,000 majority W. Freeland Kendall organization Republican won the nomination for mayor on Tuesday. James Henry Duckey, the city's first colored candidate, withdrew a week ago, but too late to have his name stricken from the ticket. He polled 163 votes. In his withdrawal he told: "Today I am confronted by ambulances made by citizens who are supposed to have signed petitions to have my name placed on the ballot for the office of Mayor, but who now swear that their names were forged. With these signatures, I could not believe that I assume the office if I received the required number of votes. The handling of my petitions was done by my supposed friends and until confronted with these ambulances today I knew nothing of the supposed forgery and was entirely innocent of even a knowledge of anything irregular. In order to avoid actions that would follow, and to am financially or physically unable to defend myself against, I have decided to withdraw from the campaign." A number of leading colored politicians were anxious to pull Duckey off the ticket because they thought it would help the organization to help them support it. Edward Dickinson, a candidate for closed court, interimship. Republican organization, however, double-crossed Dickinson. He carried both the 7th and 30th wards, where the colored vote was heavy, but made no impression in the other wards throughout the city. Dickinson polled 515 votes in the 7th, and 4,967 in the 30th ward. Altogether he polled some 21,000 votes. All of the sitting municipal judges were re-elected. Little E. Crane, lowest man on the ticket, received 150,000 votes. Washington, Sept. 20.—Thirty-two delegates were knocked off the representation of five Southern States at the National Convention last week. Georgia was cut down from 17 to 9; South Carolina, 11 to 4; Mississippi, 12 to 4; Texas, from 29 to 5; Louisiana, from 29 to 5; Republicans of those states, want a larger convention it was said they will have to get out and hustle 2,500 Republican votes in each congressional district, whereupon they will be allowed an additional delegate for each district. Tennessee, which gave a good vote to Harding, was given six additional delegates, having a total of 26. Florida also given two and Maryland two. Leading colored politicians here declare that the cutting of the South's representation is a blow at them because a large part of such delegations are colored. The cut means that enough effort will be made at the House of Representatives also in the representation in the South in the House of Representatives, which is required by the Constitution.

EXPERTS ONLY KILL KLANSMEN ARE WANTED AT "I'LL FREE YOU," TUSK. HOSPITAL SAYS GOVERNOR Washington, D. C., Sept. 29.-The U. S. Civil Service Commission in a bulletin this week signed by John T. Doyle, secretary, states that the week of providing a staff of colored men and women at the U. S. Veterans' Hospital at Tuskegee, Ala., is progressing satisfactorily. Many colored eligibles have been appointed, the bulletin declares, and are now on duty at the hospital. Others will be appointed until the colored staff is enrolled. HAS EIGHT NURSES The Commission states that it has secured a sufficient number of eligibility for positions of nurse, dentist, and pharmacist, and also enough eligibility for positions of physician, the possible role of specialist in tuberculosis and nephropathy. There is still need for colored eligibility for positions of reconstruction aide and reconstruction assistant in occupational therapy and physiotherapy, dietitian, laboratorian in biotechnology, and laboratorian in neurology.

SOUTH BEND KU KLUX AFTER UNDERWORLD KING South Bend, Ind., Sept. 20—The widely-heralded flight of colored people from this city is ended. In fact, it never started and citizens, white and black, are marvelling at some of the stories carried by daily newspapers on the Kut Klux Klan, received by Clarence Elliot, well-known king of the local underworld while it added some to the unrest friction frightened no one, least of all Elliot who has been a sporting and due to several instances of racial frightened no one, lease of all Elliot, who has been a sporting political power here, is paying by shrewd considerate property. Many of his clients are white people, and he is reputed to be in close touch with many of the high officials of the city, many of whom intrust to him confidential missions. It is felt that the power and immunity which he has enjoyed may have brought the wrath of the Klan upon his head, and the recent shootings indulged in by newcomers who have flocked to the industrial plants here. "From here on there will be no more appearances in public of masked men or masked organizations." The Governor asserted in addressing a crowd at the Marshall County fire局, the Klan has been found to be directly responsible for forty-eight out of fifty thirteen in Tusks County, which is under medical law and where members of the State legislature, aided by the Ku Klux Klan, are to be making every effort to call a special session and impose the chief executive. "TLL. PARDON YOU." "This kind of a gang, J. C. Walton is going to put down," the Governor said, going to the limit to put it down. "If one of these masked men comes to your house after you, turn both barrels of your shotgun and I will marvel you." Premium Keld, a host man, was saved from a life in the house on the property of Governor Walton, to his hearsens and not their help in deciding the case. REID IS PARDONED "I was approached a little while ago in my room at the hotel and told that a colored manny the name of Premium Reid was sentenced to 90 years for killing a colored man who stole the camera he had taken and said the governor. "If anyone should know if this is right, it is you. I am going to take a vote on it right here. All those who want Premium Reid's sentence committed to two years imprisonment, hold up your hands." Hands were raised in the crowd and when a negative vote was called for one man, one of the men in the Reid case lifted his hand. COMMUTES SENTENCE "I hereby commute the sentence of 99 years given Premium Reid to two years," the Governor announced. Sees Husband Killed New York, Sept. 21. (K. N. P.

FAMOUS BOXER IN PAUPER'S GRAVE Young Peter Jackson (Simpson Thompkins) Dies Friendless and Penniless DISCOVERED JACK DEMPSEY School Boys Used to Follow Him Around Streets 16 Years Ago Penitless and friendless, Young Peter Jackson was laid to rest in a pauper's grave Wednesday. A score of years ago, the prize-fighter, whose real name was Simpson Thompson, was at the height of his career. One of the toughest welterweights who ever drew on a glove, he met all the brilliant fighters of that time and never was known to be knocked out. SPARBED WITH GANS At one time he was a sparring partner for the brilliant Joe Gans He. Gunch. Sam Langford. Jack Johnson, Joe Walcott and a hundred others. They were sometimes more skillful than he, and won on points, but they soldon had Young Peter on the mat. Of those who was saddened to hear of the death of the former purrilist was Al Horford. Former professor of Tang and professor of the Eureka Athletic Club "Sure I remember Young Peter Jackson" told an Arno-Americway executive. He was the discovery of Jack Dempsey. Without him Dempsey told me have been heavyweight champion. I am sure if Dempsey knew today that Young Peter Jackson was dead and without funds, he would come back on a Pullium train somewhere between New York and Salt Lake City, Utah. MOTHER IN K. C. Young Peter Jackson died at his boarding place on Greenwich street of natural causes. First public reported came when a beather reported that he had died and his relatives were wounded. He was then removed to the morgue and later taken in charge by Samuel T. Honeyby. Following the briefest of services Wednesday, the body was bid to rest in an unmarked grave. His brother is said to reside in Kangas City. Among his of his career Young Peter Jackson's friends were lesion. As a small boy I often waited behind him for blocks at a time, admiring the chunky body and the evidence of muscles in the arms that rippled through his coat shoes. As money gave out, friends asked. At the Newfolk-Tut Jackson fight recently, Young Peter Jackson stood outside the Gayley Theatre on the pavement. He did not have a ticket and looked lonely at the crowds going into the theatre. Memories of other days when he was up in comments accidently killed his mind, as he shuffled off. FOUGHT JACK JOHNSON Records show that Young Peter Jackson lost the decision to Jack Johnson in 12 rounds in 1996. The year before he lost two 15-round houts to Sum Lanford and drew another. He beat Lanford in five rounds in 1996, but lost the decision the next time they met in 15 rounds. It took Lanford, the "old master", 29 rounds to beat Jackson in 1997. Shoot To Kill Is Law Lew-stown, Iowa, Sept. 20—Because the Ku Klux entered the home of Mrs. Georgia Cross Friday, night, City Council, has ordered police to shoot and kill any per sons wearing hoods and masks when found molesting citizens and resisting officers. WILL NOT MAKE A DASH FOR FREEDOM Garvey Tells Afro He Will Stay in United States and Face the Music FOLLOWERS ARE LOYAL U. N. I. A. Head Declares They Raised $10,000 in Few Days Marcus Garvey will face his appeal trial and whether he is sent up to serve his term or not he will remain at the helm of the U. N. L. A. movement. This fact was emphasized by Mr. Garvey himself for the Argo-America in a brief statement in the office of the Negro World last week shortly after he had been freed on a $25,000 bail and walked from prison a free man. After meeting Mr. Garvey emphasized that he had no intention of jumping his bail and going to a foreign country where he would be safe. With the appearance of the Provisional President of Africa and back of the U. N. L. A. back at the New York headquarters the place had taken on a behiite appearance when the Argo representative visited the place. Literally hundreds of men and women were crowding in and out of the building. The man was a native of the American accent, but there were also others who crowded about the place. GARVEY STILL FIGHTING When asked as to what outcome was expected of the appeal, Garvey, as well as some of his honourants, seemed reluctant to make predictions, but he rightly interrupted. He will fight the battle of his life when the case comes up. He still maintains that he is innocent of any intentional wrong doings. "I am a victim of equity and jealousy, a martyr to the cause of Negro freedom." These words spoken with unmistakable erophilus foreshadow the fighting program of Garvey. When asked what effect the imprisonment and exiless had on the rank and file of the followers he stated that thousands of Negroes throughout the world had already demonstrated their increased loyalty by contributing to the defense fun and that only a few others had been carried by devoted followers and that this spirit was growing every day. PRINTING MACHINERY. It was evident, however, from all indications about the headquarters that the effects of the financial disaster followed by the independence and trial had been the organization. The battery of闪尾机 and steering machinery purchased to print the U. N. I. A. publications lie idle, and RECOGNIZES MISTAKES AND WEAKNESSES The friends and lieutenants of Garvey fully recognize that while Garvey is a great organizer he lacked some of those factors necessary to properly conduct the organization built by W. L. Henderson, associate business manager of the Negro World, told the writer that he believed that in spite of the mistakes made by Garvey, he published more than any Negro movement since the beginning of time. When asked as to his opinion of the final outcome he stated that he was certain that there would be final success in the attacks he stated. "We will build upon a firmer foundation."

He had been transferred from School 108, Caroline and Bank streets in September 1920. According to Mr. Wm. H. Anderson, principal of Dumbar School, he was rated at hair in both scholarship and department. With a small billie clasped tightly in his hand, 15-year-old Oliver Jackson calmly told the Coroner at the Northwestern Police Station on Monday how that a tussle growing out of a joke ended in the fatal stabbing of Thomas Underwood, aged 17. Friday afternoon, he was held for action of the Grand Jury. Barely old enough to realize the seriousness of the crime charged against him and telling his story as if reciting a lesson in history, the schoolboy told the coroner that the offender he gave into a store at 217 N. Eden street, to buy some confections, and meeting Underwood, he made some remarks concerning a newspaper headline announcing the Dempsey-Firpo fight. This remark provided a joke and the boys began teasing Then, according to Jackson, Underwood turned the joking into course tests and was asked to quit. An argument followed which culminated into blows being passed. It was then that he drew his knife and plunged it into his stomach, with awkward witnesses to the killing. Abraham Mendel, white, proprietor of the store, had gone for an interval when the incident occurred. Jackson, alarmed, ran from the store. After staggering from the place Underwood was taken, he was taken to Martha Wilkins, and from there to John Hopkins Hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Jackson, who lives at 412 N. Spring street, is a simbol in the Dunbar School on Jefferson street, and is regarded by his associates, a large group of whom attends the school. He is gentle spirited boy. He was represented at the hearing by Attorney J. Stewart Davis. REV. SHAW DEAD Boston, Mass., Sept. 20 (Gly Basl Hutchins) - Mass. M. A. N. Shaw died suddenly yesterday.

He was a graduate of Atlanta University and Morris Brown College, editor of the Angustia Semitual, 1851-90, and author of several books. A wife survives. GEORGIA PAYS PRICE Manchester, Ga., Sept. 20—According to a survey made by James S. Peters, white, of Manchester, Ga., President of the Georgia State University, this year to Geoglyph alone, through the migration of Negroes, will approximate the huge sum of $27,000,000 or an amount that would have permitted the eviction of the school for $175,000 for colored schools in each of the 155 counties. Mr. Peters claims that in the wake of the departing Negroes 46.674 vacant farmhouses and 55.534 idle plows are left, land which formerly sold for $40 to $75 an acre commands no price at all and weeds are the only crop. Births, Deaths, Marriages EARTHQUAKE IN JAPAN MEANS A LOSS OF $500,- 000 TO THE HERBS OF LIFE CO. WAREHOUSE CONTAINING CARGO OF PRINGIPAL DRUG USED IN FAMOUS MEDICINE COMPLETELY DESTROYED MUST NOW IMPORT SIMILAR DRUG FROM INDIA AT A GREATER COST. CAN'T USE SUBSTI TUTE, BECAUSE OF PECULIAR TASTE WHICH IS WELL KNOW TO PUBLIC OFFICERS SAY PRICE WILL ADVANCE TO $2.00 PER BOTTLE The whole civilized world has been brought to grief by the sad calamity which has befallen the little Island country of Japan, and which has taken such an enormous toll and life and property. Many foreign investors are very heavy losers; among them is the Herbs, of Life Medicine Company, who sustained a loss of over $500,000 by the collapse and total destruction of the Jechidu warehouse, at Yokaihoma, in which was stored vast cargos of crude drugs. Among these there was one particular drug, which cannot be substituted or imminent because of the peculiar taste it imparts to the famous Herbs of Life toile. The drug is only indigenous to Japan and India. Therefore, to continue the manufacture of the famous Herbs of Life, the Herbs of Life Medicine Company, must now import this drug from far away India, which means an increased cost of production amounting to at least 90 per cent. At a recent meeting of the officers of the Herbs of Life Medicine Company, the general manager stated, that it was a matter of impossibility to use an inferior drug because of the fact that the world knows the taste of Herbs of Life, and that taste evidently will change without a continued use of the original drugs that make up is formula. For which reason, the officers have decided to advance the price to $2.00 per bottle just as soon as the present supply becomes exhausted. MARRIAGES.

We who loved him sadly miss you, As it dawns seven years: In the lonely hours of thinking, Thoughts of you are ever near, No one knows the silent heartache, Only those who have lost can tell Of the grief that is borne in silence, For my dear father I loved so well. JOHNSON In sad and loving remembrance of my dear husband. Richard Johnson, who departed this life 7 years ago, September 19th, 1946. Seven years have passed, my heart still sore. As time goes by I miss you more. Both sad and sudden was the call When God took you to your reward. From this world of pain and sorrow To the land of peace and rest. God has taken you, dear husband Where you have found eternal I will meet you. LEE—In sad, but loving remembrance of our dear mother Nancy Lee who departed this life 7 years ago, Sept. 17, 1946. Jesus while our hearts are bleeding Over the spoils that death has won We would at this solemn meeting calmly say thy will be done. Though cast down we are not forsaken Though afflicted not alone Thou didst give and thou has paken Blessed Lord thy will be done By thy hand the boom was given Thou has taken but thine own Lord of earth and God of heaven Ever more thy will be done By her children, REV. THOMAS H. LEE, HATTE S. LEE, STEPHEN H. LEE, MARIA E. MORRIS, BESSIE M. BOBBETT. In loving remembrance of my dear sister, Nannie Matthews, who departed this life 10 years ago September 17, 1923. I cannot forget my dear sister. Though long may seem the years And often in the lonely hours I wipe away the tears. Dear is the grave where my sister is laid. Sweet is the memory that will never fade: Others may forget you sister but never will I. MARTIN—In sad but loving remembrance of our dear parents and best friends, John W. and best friend, Michael J. Joseph, Jesus, two years ago this month, September 14, and 21, respectively. Gone but not forgotten. I like that ancient Saxon phrase, which calls The burial-ground God's-Acre! It is just: It consents, each grave within its walls. And breathes a benison 'oer the sleeping dust. God's-Acre! Yes, that blessed name imparts Comfort to those, who in the grave have sown The seed that they had garnered in their hearts. The bread of life, alas! no more their own. Into its furrows shall we all be cast. In the sure faith, that we shall rise again At the great harvest, when the archangel's blast Shall commence, fun, the chaff and grain. By their daughters.

WILLIAMS Los Angeles, Sept. 20.—(A. N. P.)—The 43rd annual convention of the National Baptist Convention closed here Saturday after what officials and delegates declared to be one of the finest sessions the Convention has ever had. The attendance of delegate was large; many ministers having embarked on the opportunity to bring their lives and families with them on their trip to beautiful California, and they leave in their pursues of the beauty and charm of Los Angeles, as well as the enterprise and hospitality of her people. Business of major proportions was transacted and the annual report of President L. K. Williams, of Chicago, pictured a march of Christian progress and constructive effort on behalf of the body which was highly inspiring to the assembly. In an annual address, Dr. Williams touched among other vital subjects, Missionary Endowers, Home and Foreign, the Home Mission Board, better facilities and preachers for the rural population, the development of young men for the church, co-operation with standard schools, the work of Christian Education, the new publishing house at Nashville, and migration on which he said: "The World War helped the Negro, for it has made him conscious of his inherent powers and rich opportunities, and feels keenly the present world's unrest. Questioning these migrants you will find that this movement is a strike against an unjust system, he tells his own story. He wants better schools, equal civil rights, and justice in the courts. "He wants higher wages and better living conditions; he wants better transportation accommodations and a just distribution of public funds to take care of dependent members of his race. He wants the abolishment of the convict lease system, and the end of certain cramped, tenancy systems and non-settlement practices made very hard in many localities. "The wants freedom from fears of mobs and lynchers and from all group rule, visible or invisible; he desires safety and the guarantee of better police protection, the guidance of inter-racial understanding and inter-religious wired out, and restored confidence in his white neighbor; he wants economic freedom, undisturbed industrial opportunities and in many cases better religious environments; many of the detergents are prepared for sometime, touring California and the Northwest before returning to their homes.

STOMACH TROUBLES ARE DUE TO ACIDITY Bisulfated, Magnesium A Safe, Certain, Speedy Relief For Acid Indigestion So called stomach troubles, such as hediigestion gas, sourness, stomach ache and inability to contain food are in probably also cases out of ten, simply evidence that excessive secretion of acid is taking place in the stomach, the formation of acid and indigestion. Gas dislends the stomach and causes that fall, oppressive, burning feeling sometimes known as heartburn, the acid fritture of the stomach, the delicate lining of the stomach. The trouble lies entirely in the excess development or secretion of acid. To stop or prevent this soothing of the acid of the stomach and to neutralize the acid, and make it bland and barren, a tenuous effect of Bisulfated Magnesium, a good and effective corrector acid stomach, should be used or sold water after eating or whenever gas, sourness or acidity is felt. This sweetens, the stomach and neutralizes his acidity in a few moments and is a perfectly barren and of the which can be obtained from any drugsist in either powder or tablet form enables its work properly without the aid of artificial digests.

Harrison Wins High Praise As Star of Comedy Drama Written by Frank Wilson STORY IS ORDINARY Craftsmanship Also Poor, But Effort Marks Advance In Negro Drama. (Reviewed by J. A. Jackson for The Billboard and the Afro-American.) "Ia Williams' Gal," a three-act comedy drama that Francis Wilson has built up from a taboo, and its premier at the Lafayette Theatre in New York on September 19th. At the conclusion of the first act it was very apparent that both Richard B. Harrison, the star, and the pieces would be favourably received. While the piece is a long way from the finished craftsmanship that Broadway requires and while it is not even great, as measured by the drama of the day, it is a something that will provide a most pleasing evening's entertainment, and it marks a very definite suburb in Negro drama. In this case Wilson who has also shown less ambitions has shown a simple story of everyday life in a most natural manner. As a rule the philosophy, the comedy and the Negro folk songs are very legible present. THEME IS ORDINARY The story of a Spanish War veteran who has reared a daughter without the aid of her mother, dead since the child's birth, and whose blind confidence in the daughter, coupled with a long experience in her husband made a deplored promise that their children should some day wed, is one that must apply to any people. It is the manner in which Wilson has invaded it with the atmosphere and characteristics of Negro home life that gives her such a birthday ocurring on Decoration day, so does the culmination of the woe of the daughter by a young man who works his way through college by working as a "Red Cap." After a brief stay at a hotel, he is to be the husband of a deserted mother with a child who lives in the apartment above. This of course wipes out the simulation the veteran held for Jim Exley" whose World War II record was his claim to distinction in the old man's name. That was, however, authoritative evidence to keep him alive, apparent uncontainment, and lack of correct principles. HARRISONS IMPERSONA- TION FINE "Bick" Herrison, as he is known in the trenches, has been for years a lyceum, club and church ceremonial, and in the period himself a distinguished but the least character actors on the stage today, without regard to two distinctions as to artists or to the nominees to be played to. Morris McKenny, who played the part of "Dim Easter," the "chair sheet" simply plays in the part. His portrayal was perfect. So was that of share Young as an old mad sister of the veteran. Dobbie Haskins, as the daughter, is a pleasing reader of times, but she shows a bit of personality in the picture close-up style all through the show, which roles the more intense spots of her value.

C., Sept. 20.—From Saturday afternoon entertainments white students at Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn., to Broadway stars is the achievement of Floquory E. Miller and Aubrey Lyle. Aubrey Miller and Aubrey Lyle were college pals at Fisk University. The science department was badly in need of funds. This gave them their opportunity to discover themselves and slowly wend their way to fame and love. They began by giving entertainments for the benefit of the science department. In 1903 they began their professional career about the old Pekin Theatre in Chicago. Then they spent fifteen years on the Keith and then leave of absence from the Keith vaudeville people and spent two years in the British Isles. They appeared with a musical comedy in West End, London—the Broadway of England. They also toured England, Scotland and the United States, then the Keith circuit finally to form the Shuffle Along Company, which enjoyed the longest run of any colored show on Broadway and opened a new era for the Negro actor. George White, producer of the famous quickie, took the colored possibilities in a colored musical comedy and he is now featuring them in a $200,000 production—"Running Wild." They opened at the Selwyn Theatre in Boston, Mass., on Labor Day night. After a four week's incarnation in Boston, they go to Broadway. The music for "Running Wild" was especially written by Cecil Mack and Jimmy Johnson. The book is under the direction of Will Marion Cook. The book is by Miller and Lyle.

In each case it is just a question of investing at the PROPER TIME. SOME OF OUR PROPERTIES Down in Brazoria County, Texas, close to the famous West Columbia field, where a well produced over a MILLION DOLLARS' WORTH of oil in ONE MONTH, we recently purchased a drilling contract on eleven hundred acres. The Transcontinental Co., is now drilling two wells about a mile from us. If either one of them comes in a roaring Gusher, OH, BOY! GOOD-BYE. We are hoping that conditions will warrant us to finish our well at Mexia, Texas, soon, which now stands 2,700 feet deep with only 400 more feet to go to reach the usual depth where the Big Gushers are found. The Mid-West Life Insurance Company, which was organized and financed largely by the World Wonder has just succeeded in increasing its authorized capital to a HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS, will soon be spreading all over this United States. It will not only make lots of money for World Wonder stockholders, but will employ thousands of Negro men and women. The World Wonder owns many other valuable oil properties too numerous to mention and are buying others. About three years ago we paid $3,500.00 for a Royalty on 80 acres at Beggs, Oklahoma, in 28-15-12. We now have on this property a Big Gas Well and a Big Oil Well. We have already refused TWENTY-FIVE THOUSAND DOLLARS ($25,000) for this property, and it may be worth a half million in another year when fully developed. A little more than three years ago we paid Five Thousand Dollars for $ \frac{1}{4} $ royalty in 40 acres in 17-15-10, Creek County, Oklahoma, and have refused Ten Thousand Dollars for it. This property has not been drilled on yet, but is practically surrounded by Big Wells and should be developed this summer. This property will very likely be worth a few Hundred Thousand Dollars when developed. A little more than two years ago we paid the Masonic Lodge at Tabor, Okla., Twelve Hundred Dollars for a lease on its lot. We drilled a well on it and brought in a Two-Hundred Barrell Well. This well has already paid almost a Hundred Thousand Dollars, and is now paying more than a Thousand Dollars per month. This is one lodge you cannot join. They have closed their doors to all new members. World Wonder owns $ \frac{1}{4} $ interest in this entire well.

FOUND GUILTY OF SECOND DEGREE MURDER Jury Deliberates Hour In Case of Wallace Smith, Who Killed His Wife June 6th KILLING NOT DELIBERATE Bullet, Says Prisoner, Intended for Alleged Lover Who Was Embracing Her Charged with shaying his wife because he found her talking to a man he believed to have an evil eye for women. Wallace Smith was found guilty of murder in the second degree Wednesday afternoon. The State asked a first degree verdict. The jury was out an hour. J. Steward Davis represented the defendant. The killing for which Smith was convicted took place on the night of June 6, in front of the residence at 1211 Whitecat street, when Smith arriving in the city from Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, drove out to the Whitecat street house in a yellow taxi and finding his wife, Mrs. Amie Smith, sitting on a bench with Henry Pleasants, fired five shots, two of which struck Pleasants and one fatally wounded his wife. Man Had "Evil Eye" Taking the stand in his own defense Smith testified that he had had trouble with Pleasants ever since they had been married. He had been told that Pleasants had an evil eye and that he could take any woman he wanted, and gouged by this belief, he had come to fear the man, he stated. He stated that this work frequently carried him out of the city and that several times on his return he found his wife with Pleasants. On this occasion she was lying in his arms, he said. He added that when he started living at Pleasants, his wife ran between them and received a bullet intended for the intruder. At this time Pleasants started towards him when he drew a revolver and began firing. Mrs. Smith was fatally wounded when she ran between the men. Pleasants Denies Charge On the witness stand Pleasants denied improper relations with the dead woman, but admitted that he her often and knew her before she shook her hand. That Smith began to lie before she spoke or gave warning of any kind, and that after he was bit twice he grappled with him and wrenched the pistol from his hand. Powell Fletcher, brother of the dead woman, also testified that Smith began shooting before they were aware of his presence. Vice Executive Resigns Miss Hazel N. Macbeth who has served as vice-executive of the 14th Ward for the past year resigned that position last week. It is understood she is retiring from the position of recording secretary of the 14th Ward Republican Club also.

Other evidence which may lead to a charge of fraud and investigation by the Commissiver of motor vehicles is said to have been unarrested and will be presented to court when Mr. Bond's suit comes up for hearing in the October term.

This included 1,522 at the high school and 160 at the Training School. Enrollments this week are expected to run the total over 16,000. Officials at the Administration Building declared that no report had been turned in in regard to half time classes and pupils and this cannot be ascertained until the latter part of October when complete reports will be in. Sometime ago, Superintendent West reported about 4,000 children, white and colored, would be enrolled in half-time classes this year. A survey by the APTO-AMERI-CAN shows colored schools will have at least 100 half-time classes and 4500 pupils. This means that one-third of all the colored school children have been placed on half-time.

VICTORY HOSPITAL NOT YET A REALITY VICTORY HOSPITAL NOT YET A REALITY Although the Union Protestant Hospital moved ten days ago from its old location on Division street, near Mosher, to its new building on 2nd street, the side of the Division street property to colored people in a Victory Hospital has not been consigned. Dr. John M. T. Finney, president of the colony and white board of trustees of the new Victory Hospital said today that he had just gotten back from his vacation and did not know when Victory Hospital would move to its new quarters. Taking order of this old U. P. L. building in a new hospital for colored people in ponds, he said, upon the coming of an appropriation on gift in order to properly maintain it, a Victory Hospital without outside aid is impossible. Finney also stated that the Bedford Board was interested and wanted to send an investigator to determine the worth of the property. Rec. R. W. S. Thomas formerly of Metropolitan M. E. Church presided at John Wesley Sunday morning enroute to Harpers Ferry, where he will spend his vacation until oct. 1. Women's Day and homecoming services will be held at Union Baptist Church No. 2. Saratoga street, near Fremont avenue, this Sunday. MORGAN PARK CITY WE WILL HELP YOU BUILD Citizens Investment Co. COURT DISMISSES CHARGE AGAINST MINISTER COURT DISMISSES CHARGE AGAINST MINISTER Rev. T. W. Lane, pastor of Mt. Joy Baptist Church, was found not guilty of the charge of operating an automobile while under the influence of whiskey by Judge Stanton in Criminal Court, Part 2 Wednesday. Rev. Mr. Lane was arrested after midnight, July 28. He had been trailed to the house of Miss Betty Roberts, 1415 Drudg Hill avenue by Officer Wood, of the Northwestern District. The car had been parked for sometime outside the house when the officer rang the bell and arrested the minister. He was sentenced to 20 days in jail, in Traffic Court, and released on $1,000 bail pending appeal. In his own defense Rev. Mr. Lane stated that he had no license to drive a car and had never driven one. He had preached a special sermon for the Rev. R. T. Winn at Morning Star Epiphany Church earlier in the evening, he said and after a reception tendered the choice, was driven by his friend and chauffeur William Allen, 1335 N. Mount street, to the Drudg Hill avenue house, where he called to deliver a package sent by mutual friends in Virginia. The pastor denied the charge of the officer that he had been drink- ing, and said he was shoved around in the Station House to make it appear that he was drunk. Officer Weed was unable to explain to Judge Staunton, why he failed to arrest the minister on the street instead of trailing him to the house. WHITES THREATEN TO BURN BLOCK In spite of police protection for the property at 2446 Francis street, which was bombarded with bricks and other missiles last week, other efforts to destroy the property were made this week. The house, which is entirely in a white section, has been purchased by Adeline Stumps and Amie James, 1809 M-Culloh street, who intended to occupy it at an early date. Armed with paint cans and brushes and red paint, whites of the neighborhood descended upon the house last week and covered the steps and the walls with K, K, K signs and departed without molation. At various times during the week other rowds visited the house and decorated it with letters and red paint. During the noon hours employees of the United Railways gathered around the house threatening the lives of the occupants as soon as they shall move in, indicating that the police on the head are in league with the persons who are damaging the property. One officer, whose name could not be learned, advised Augustus Johnson not to keep the house and put colored people in it because the whites would burn the whole block down. Woman's Day services will be held at Shiloh Baptist Church Sunday, Rev. Isabelle Bandy will speak in the morning and evening and a platform service will be held at night.

Franklin street, well known to baseball fans of this city as "Dark Night" by reason of his connection with the Black Sox's pitching staff for several seasons, was shot last Friday night by Thomas Hill at the latter's home 520 Pine street. The shooting is alleged to have been the result of a gambling argument. The ball penetrated the left side of the victim from the rear grazing the spine. Smith was rushed to Franklin Square Hospital. It was reported late this week that his wound would not prove fatal. Hill was locked up after the shooting pending the outcome.

PARK POOL DREW WELL THIS YEAR Attendance Surpassed That of Last Year by 785; Season Free of Accidents Figures given out this week on the closing of the park pools revealed the fact that the Druid Hill Park pool total attendance for the season, which opened June 9th, surpassed that of last year by 785. The total figures for the season just closed were 21,669 boys under 15; Men, 13,943 boys under 18; Girls (under 12-years) 1,796. Of the three months, the attendance of July was the largest, the total being 8,798. A notable feature of the increased attendance was that 1,408 men, and boys over 12-years of age, and 1,127 women, and girls over 12-years of age, were those of the same age limit last year. Owing to the cool days the latter part of August and the first week of September, the attendance dropped off, otherwise the figures would have been considerably increased. The whole management of the pool this year was an extremely successful not a single accident occurring during the season. One of the features of the pool this year was the Afro-American swimming meet conducted under the auspices of the Playground Athletic League, this week and every week at the pool, and proved so successful that it has been decided to hold them as an annual feature.

Charging that the boom factory at the House of Reformation for colored boys at Cheltenham is unfair competition, exploits boys sent there and keeps them from getting any schooling, and employs them at an occupation they cannot use in after life, leading labor officials in a letter to Mayor Jackson and Governor Ritchie urged that the factory be abolished. The statement is signed by Samuel Gompers head of the A. F. L. Henry F. Browning, head of the State Federation of Chas Wiegand, of the City Federation of Labor and Will Boyer, secretary of International Broommakers Union. These officials interviewed city and State officers some time ago and were advised to submit their petition in writing. Labor officials charge that the institution is exploiting the boys by hiring out $2 of them the entire year to Ripple Brothers for $4,916.50. This firm also has a heat, light power cost free where they turn out 1200 cents a day at a labor cost of 16 cents a dozen while free labor plants in Baltimore pay $1.50 per dozen to workers. Boys are being kept out of school in order to work in the Cheltenham broom factory says the petition and adds that these boys should be given an education and taught to work at some employment school when discharge from the institution. Ripple Brothers operate a free labor factory in Baltimore and not one of the boys learning at the reformatory is given employment there. Modern institutions of this character do not farm out their labor to private contractors but the institution of this method should be abolished by the House of Reformation for Colored Boys. When Mrs. Florence Bell, 730 Waesche street, instituted proceedings against her husband, Jesse, for divorce recently, she had the notion of securing a legal separation. Jesse Bell returned last week from the Government Hospital Ashville, C. Ashville. He has been receiving from four wounds received while serving in the 15th New York Infantry overseas. Friends informed him that in his absence his wife had gotten a divorce, and he came to the Armo office to look up the records. Investigation showed that Mrs. Bell started divorce proceedings, but failed to push them. She is drawing a part of the Government compensation.

The clerk 'seenting' at once that all was not well and being aware that even sober people are sometimes sorry that the paid the bureau a visit, refused him a license, telling him to return the next day. Holding for long time the desk for this man said: "Can't possibly do it. Gotta git morried today. Come on and gimme the license." The clerk gave him the gate instead, but in a few moments he returned, again reaching for the desk to keep from sitting down on the floor. Again he was shown the air. Thinking they had gotten rid of him, the clerks were surprised to see him put in his appearance, this time locked in a showy heaver hat and before he blunted out: "Thisish ain't the shame feller that was in here a while ago," he assured the clerk. "Thisish iish hish hish brother." "Get out," yelled the now disgusted clerk. "and "stay out!" Again the man made his exit, this time in tears, but he won't bite at him, so the clerk sniffing, in a few moments the same man returned, this time he had again changed hats, the beaver adorning the head of the woman hanging on his arm, and as he clutched at the desk, she also found it necessary to find something in the line of support, and made a grab at register. "Thisish the woman I fingers on marrin', boss, she can answer all questions you has on th' books. Now will you gimme a license?" "No," thundered the clerk, thoroughly angered. "both of you go home and soben up and tomorrow, leave that akoma outside. Now please don't leave the door open as you pass out." DON'T FAIL TO CALL— MADISON 1664 B "Good Morning Judge" "Good Morning Judge" The Arms of Morpheus When Mrs. Lotie Carter, $09 Vincent street, and Thomas Hall, 60 address woke up early Sunday morning they were greatly surprised to find what changes a few hours could make. After a stroll in the early part of the evening they sought out a park bench to end a Romeo and Juliet skit when they lolled themselves off to sleep soothed by the fond embrace of each other arms out of life along the law, and when this dreaming, cooing pain awoke they found that the sweet early autumn air had vanished and they were looking at the gloomy sides of the police patrol. Charged with disorderly conduct in a public park, the pair was lined $2 and costs each by Magistrate Larkins in the Northwestern Sunday morning, when they moved to Mrs. Carter to select a more private place to lull Mr. Hal off to sleep. Mysterious $40 When nobody could find out where $40 went alleged to have been the backbone of an all-day joyride Sunday, it started trouble that ended in the Tuesday morning session of the Magistrate's Court with the court taking the $40 and $40 in hand. A party headed by Frank Austin, chef at Goldfield's, Lemuel Saunders and Jonas Saunders, who also lives at Goldfield's, hired a machine and after taking in the ballgame obtained some moonshine and went out to paint the city red. According to the Saunders boys gave Austin $40 for safekeeping and no one seems to know just what happened to the 40 bucks after this. Mr. Austin stated that he returned the money. So when they all had fully recovered from the effects of the joy juice the quest of finding the money that it caused an alteration which brought the rule before His Honor. Austin stated that Saunders cut at him with a knife as he was on the job. He said he was on life. Saunders was fined $50 and costs on the assault charge. Passing The. Buck Joseph Kelly, 708 N.

Carey street, they were using a dollar bill belonging to Kelly in their little game when in some mysterious manner the dollar bill ceased to pass. When the argument was over Mrs. Lillie Davis was having her face done over at the hospital and Kelly was being taken to the police. An open front door opened Miss McConnell from witnessing more of the proceedings. Kelly was fined $50 and costs for "just smacking the lady" because the "smack" tore a big hole in her face.

If you look strength and vitality, are weak, run down, and suffer with aches and pains, or perhaps a serious malady has fastened itself upon you, there is a CAUSE. What and where is that cause? Here is what several famous medical physicians say about it. "Back of disease lies a cause and that cause no drug can reach. We know there is a cause of disease, but we do not work it. We know that the spine has more to do than any other factor with the maintenance of health on the one hand, or the establishment of disease on the other." - Alfred Walton, M. D. "Chiropractic is a scientific mode of adjusting the real cause of disease." - U. A. "The cause of physical disorders is vertebral subluxation. This cause can be corrobed by spinal adjustments given by the trained hands of the skilled Chiropractic" — U. A. "80 per cent of the population are afflicted with some form of spinal defect; this is the cause of so much menorrhagia, indigestion, headache, rheumaticism, mental weakness and other gross and numerous diseases." - M. D. Here is some thing for you to remember: Chiropractic is the ONLY method which locates and permanently removes the real cause of your malady, regardless of where that malady may lie." - U. A. Come for me to show you what this science can do for you. HOME CALLS MADE Why Buffer! Phone Madison 0510 DR. MALLIETTE CHURCHROOM 1800 HWY 100 AVE.

HISTORY DELANO'S HAIR G GUARANTEED TO GRO ORY OF DO ANO'S COCO HAIR GROWE NEED TO GROW HAIR TW HISTORY OF DOCTOR DELANO'S COCO-TAR HAIR GROWER GUARANTEED TO GROW HAIR TWO INCHES LONGER IN TWO MONTHS FROM DAY IT WAS MARKETED THE FROM DAY IT WAS MARKETED, THE SALE HAS BEEN OF PHENOMENAL AND UNINTERRUPTED SUCCESS Several years ago, in Gold Valley, California, two boys were playing a game of rock battle, and accidentally struck a middle-aged woman Dr. J. C. Delano was called to dress the wound, and found that the patient was suffering with a fractured skull. She was told that she had not been treated with a determination to bring about satisfactory results; and at the end of thirty days, the patient was not only completely cared, but her hair over the bruised spot had grown to such a remarkable degree that it aroused the curiosity of both her family and Dr. Delano; so much so, that the doctor questioned her as to what it was she had been using on her hair during the treatment, that she had only been using the ointment presented by the Doctor. With the given information, the Doctor started straightway into deep research to find out more about the treatment and its connections with the roots of the hair; and after experimenting for twenty-seven months, Dr. Delano announced that he had discovered a certain herb, which when macratured with certain chemicals, and mixed together with pure Coconut Oil and California Fine Tar, would produce a healthy, luxurious growth of hair. After finding that the experiment had proved successful in ninety-nine out of one hundred cases, Dr. Delano placed his preparation on the market in the name of Dr. Delano's Coco-Tar Hair Grower. From that day until the present time, the sale has been of phenomenal and interrupted success. In Dr. Delano's research, he discovered that falling hair was due to simple infection, (Sobum), and that hair roots very seldom die. Remove the infected scalp and the hair will grow—for Science has shown that under most bad scalps, the hair roots live. The makers of Dr. Delano's Coco-Tar Hair Grower are so confident that Dr. Delano's preparations is superior to any on the market, that they give a written guarantee in each box, agreeing to refund the money if the hair is not made to grow two inches or two months. There is no red cap attached to the scalp. No judge. The guarantee is signed, and appears in every box. If it fails, we refund your money.

K-5591 West African Visitors Surprised To See Women As Stevedores W. AFRICAN WOMEN LOAD ALL OCEAN STEAMERS Gang Carrying 80-1b Baskets on Heads Load At Rate of 150 Tons An Hour THEY'RE FOND OF PANTS London, England, Sept. 12. African World News Service The lawsuits check us alongside Port Castles Wharf. Hundreds of nearly-tothed West African colored women, clad in garments that have weathered the Seventh Seas on Navy Jack and Merchant Jack, swarm aboard. They open every door. Officers rooms, forecastles, bathrooms even are cagely searched for—trousers. Our captain, a Seat of most unlikable respectability, is alarmed. His appeal to a black policeman, spruce uniformed but bare of feet, brings relief. Constable Sam's ferocious threats result in—nothing. His passage through the laughing women is as that of a duck through water, a little yielding before and immediate closing after. The mournings fast, the captain descends. At the entrance to his saturnen he balts, indignantly a dozen black baggages are in possession. "Gimme dis par o' trousis, capy" "Gimme dis 'ar shirt capy, an ah'll giz y' a kiss!" "Ain't y' gwin' gimme dis ar cap, capy" "Y' dune gimme dis ar cap, capy door!" "Ain't y' more" "Y' dune gimme dis y' shameless clutchers" "pays the old soot" "Oot, yo brazen skinners! Oot, a tell y'" Giggling, they depart, to try their hook elsewhere. The captain double-hooks his door. A shrill whistle summons the women ashore. A humped grip hammers the stage and hand it in position; then every gusy hussy becomes a real good man. Baskets holding 89lb, are filled and lifted breast high. A woman stoops; then, straightening steadily, balances a basket on her head and ascends the stage—a rise of 12 feet. Reaching the snapper she tips her head and returns for another. Although they are not driven, the fire never breaks. If one of the women wishes to stop and sage some tender-hearted mother she does so. Each is paid for the sage more or less, yet the amazing rate of 150 tons per hour is steadily maintained until the full quota is aboard. No British deathleavers could last out a day alongside of these laughing women. The warm air aboard ankle. Into the crew's quarters they dive this time, and presently they emerge with their spoils. Caps, shirts and trousers are admired and tried on—on the open deck—amplify the wildest laughter and bedding. The crown never left our captain's face until we were half-way across the Atlantic.

Box 47 Hamilton Grange Station New York City Police Called When Morris Faction of Baptist Convention Splits REV. E. P. JONES SPLITS BAPTIST CONVENTION BOYD IS REELECTED Minnesseean Again Head of National Baptist Publishing House Ft. Worth, Texas, Sept. 20.—(A. N. P.)—After a battle with wounds during which an attempt was made to split the congregation, the annual meeting of the National Baptist Convention unincorporated, with a new set of officers in control has passed into history. Rev. J. E. Woods, of Danville, Kentucky was selected president to succeed Rev. Edward P. Jones, of Exonant, who has been head of the congregation since 1915, when he led the memorable split from the parent body in chicago. Other officers elected were, Rev. J. W. Hurse, Kansas City, Mo.; first vice-president; Rev. G. C. Coleman, California, second vice-president; Rev. C. Madison, second vice-president; Rev. H. Winn, Fort Worth, Texas, vice-president-at-large; Rev. S. J. Sones, Muskegon, Okla., corresponding secretary; Rev. C. P. Madison, secretary; Rev. J. R. Deckman, Illinois, auditor; Rev. B. H. Gaines, reporter; Mrs. Georgia, D. Baptiste, Ashley Falkner, Chicago, reelected head of the women's auxiliary. The session opened musically, the thousands or more delegates were welcomed to the city by the Mayer, "Goose Neck Bill" McDonald, the Ft. Worth Banker, and Rev. J. H. Winn, pastor of the city of Chicago. He joined the city the stendid offices in which the meeting was held. Henry Allen Boyd, secretary of the Sunday School Publishing Board, conducted a model Sunday-school in which 500 teachers gathered. Everything moved harmoniously until President Douglas Jobs began his job at Henry Allen Boyd, whom he stated was formerly his ally, but whom he accused of conducting a campaign against him in the denominational press. Also he referred to his saint- ational light on Chicago and promised to tighten it to keep it closed as long as he bived. POLICE WERE CALLED IN From that moment the convention was in bedlam. President Jones was interrupted by can-calls and shrill whistles until he concluded his address he dramatically fainted. Cries for the nominating committee were heard, and that body in which Rev. J. E. Woods, of Kentucky; Rev. D. E. Over, of Denver; and Rev. Jones names were proposed with the recommendation that Dr. Jones be reelected. The contest soon narrowed to Rev. Jones and Rev. Woods, the latter finally winning decisively. Rev. Jones sprang to his feet, declared he was being defrauded and invited those who were his followers to leave the meeting with him. A few left and they convened in Mother Zion Church around the corner. Later now, Rev. Jones came back while he was not fully accustomed into the good graces of the convention they heard his plea for $1,600, which he said he had expended personally for the good of the convention. $300 was allowed him on this claim. Those who followed him out appeared before the meeting, said they had been misled and were accepted back into the fold. The remainder of the meeting, said the Rev. Jones was retained as secretary of the Sunday School Publishing Board. The 1924 session will be held in Chicago. CIVIL WAR NURSE RECALLS BATTLE Recounts Story of the Battle of Vicksburg Where She Was Only Colored Nurse at Work Milwaukee, Wis. Sept. 26—"And the bullets were whistling like hail from heaven! Did you ever see it? Well, that's how it was at Vicksburg during the siege in 1863." Mrs. Rosa Gibson Russell, Vicksburg, Miss., the only Negro nurse on the field during the siege of her city, one of the biggest operations under Grant during the Civil War, reminisced about it Tuesday after a meeting of the Army Nurses of the Civil War, in the Hotel Wisconsin. "I was only 16 at the time and a shave," she added. "The men were dying by thousands on the field—the Yankees were at the gates of the city—and the cry for nurses was heard on all sides. I was permitted to go and went right to the field, where bullets from the infiltrates rained off from the Vicksburg side, and bullets from Grant's men from across the field. The Lord must have been with me. I was there two months before the surrender, July 4, 1863." After that Mrs. Russell then Rosa Gibson, worked in Gen. Mcpherson hospital. Vicksburg, for two and one-half years. It was at the hospital that she met her mother who was sold when Mrs. Gibson was 4 years old. "I didn't know her," said Mrs. Russell. "Friends told me she was my mother, and I took their Call VErnon 6016 ALONG THE STRAND AT THE "NATION'S PLAYGROUND" By R. T. Lockett Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 20—The Atlantic City schools opened Monday with the biggest enrollment in the history of the resort. Seventy-four pupils, graduates of the Indiana avenue school last spring, entered the new High School that is one of the finest in the country, and received a cost of more than million dollars. The colored students constitute the largest number of race over to enter the high school at once time, and marks a new era in educational progress in the resort. The only class to come anywhere near this number was the one of last year, when 52 pupils were sent to the High School. This is a remarkable record for the Indiana avenue school in view of fact that eight years ago there had been three colored graduates of the Indiana avenue school, who had received diplomas from the High School in its entire history, just two more than the number in the last two years and six less than the number in the last three years. There are more than two hundred colored students in the High School at present as against less than twenty as against less than twenty years ago, and that the cause is phenomenal increase the writer does not know. According to statements issued from the office of the Superintendent of Schools the Indiana and New Jersey avenue schools will retain their status of last year. Several new teachers have been added to the force and both health departments have received during the summer access. Included among the more than sixty colored teachers in the resort are two principals of schools, a supervisor of drawing, a musical directress and a physical director of the two buildings. No Supervising principal has been appointed as yet to fill the position left vacant last year by the sudden death of J. K. Paul Brook. J. Emmett Scott, a Government employee of Richmond, Va., is spending his annual vacation at the shore with his son, Emmett, who has been here all summer. Mr. Scott will remain here for a fortnight as is his custom, and for his son will return to Harvard University, where he is a medical student. Saturday marked the closing of the four municipal tennis courts maintained at the New York avenue playgrounds for the use of citizens of the resort and for visitors. Mark DeLeon, the superintendent of the grounds, said that he was very much pleased over the year previous. Mr DeLeon was especially pleased the championship tournament that was produced on the courts during the latter part of August. In his tournament H. E. Hilleen, of Califimore, representing the Memorial Tennis Club, won the Men's Singles, the most coveted event of the tournament. The Men's Doubles were annexed by Edward Smith, former junior champion of the playing with compatriots Words of N.L., and the Women's Singles event was easily won by Miss Hande Winston, of Washington, D. C. Already much talk is heard among the graduates and followers of Howard and Lincoln Universitys ment the annual football classic staged between these two leading institutions. An authorized Howard University coach has been operated at the shore leaving here in time for the many pre-game functions and remain until after the evening celebrations of the college students and their adherents. This annual game and the festivities attendant thereon have been the focus of the entire year. Although these two teams have played for the last quarter of a century or more, it is only since 1918 that the game has taken such a hold among the college element and the followers of college sports in thousands of graduates. It is also for an annual annuum. All attendance records are expected to be smashed this year. Miss Maze Rickman, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles V.

'SUPERMAN TOMAN' EIGHTH INSTALLMENT With regard to this matter of unity among my people," responded Dixon, "the first point to be considered is: shall we have Negroes or shall we have Americans? We can't have both. The closer certain nationalities in our population get together the further they drift from what ought to be the predominating idea—the general welfare of the State. I think that the aim of the so-called Negro should be national, not segregated unity; provided of course, that the white man will permit him. Why should a certain class of citizens band themselves in a separate camp, patronizing only themselves, working only among themselves, and so on? Let us suppose that the Jews, the Irish, the Mayflower descendants, and others, form themselves into their respective camps, patronizing only themselves. Wouldn't it make for narrowness, not to say national disharmony? None of the nationalities that come here are forced to segregate themselves—indeed, they are upbraided when they do so, as listen to the fuss that was made about the German-American. Another point; a too close Negro unity makes for segregation. With regard to this man ple," responded Dixon, "the is: shall we have Negroes of We can't have both. The our population get together what ought to be the predic welfare of the State. I think Negro should be national, not of course, that the white n should a certain class of c separate camp, patronizing only among themselves, and the Jews, the Irish, the May ers, form themselves into the izing only themselves. Wou not to say national disharm ties that come here are for indeed, they are upbraided the fuss that was made about other point; a too close N gation. "And with regard to Negroes not acting more in unity, the truth is you can never get any group of human beings to think alike, not even to act able, even when their most vital interests are concerned, the black people, the English labor unions hamper the Government just when unity was most needed? Again, in California a great racket is made about the Japanese, yet isn't the whites who are their main support? The Gen. the lie has complained for centuries about the Jews, yet doesn't do anything are even the same? As they are even those Negroes who defend the Caucasian in his treatment of their people. Among my people I notice that those who preach what they call racial unity do not practice it when it affects their pocketbooks. Just as long as the so-called Negro has his ideals and ideals and, as is, as ideals and, as is, he is, I do not think that side will be more pitted than at present. "On the other hand, I think there are three reasons why the Negro should spend his money among his own people; first, a matter of personal pride, for the majority of the white persons whom he jeopardizes really despise him; second his is straining group and hostility; and third, since he is forced to work for the whites for smaller than the usual wage, he should not spend it with them at the normal rate. Moreover, you must not forget that the principal supporters of Negro business are Negroes." The mentor drew his overreaction around him. Iixon noticed his motion and asked if he were somewhat," was the reply. Dixi. Dixon reflected an instant and on received under the seat and turn continued: "A similar number of led on the steam. A few minutes whites would undoubtedly take more later, when the steam was thumping active measures to gain their rights, in the pipes, the senator said: 'The but the Negro, not much educated Negro as a whiner.

He presents not evident that, since the Negro's party makes it impure, the month of the population, yet, you say, there is not a up arms to the enemy, at least at single one in the higher councils of the nation. He must follow the course of the nation. The truth is that the outcured by all people at a similar Negro, like the Irish in Ireland, "Somewhat," was the reply. Dixon received in the seat and turned on the steam. A few minutes later, when the steam was thimming in the pipes, the senator said: "The Negro is a whiner. He is always shining, winning. He would be better by being much smarter."

"But the race loses valuable time in protesting—time that could be employed in lettering its condition." "Losing time by protesting! Can you imagine King George and supporters attacking him in an argument against the American colonists they protested against unjust taxes? It the Negro were to say nothing wouldn't it most naturally be taken that he is contented? I do consider it the duty not only of those who suffer from the slavery but to protest against it. Did not Christ denounce the Pharisees and the rich with all the might of His soul? When the Jews were rebuffing the walls of Jerusalem on their return from Galilean captivity for the land of Israel, hand and trowel in the other? Consider this, also. At school the spirit to the Declaration of Independence is instilled into us. We are taught to adhere, indomitable spirits like Judeus Cesar, William Teh, Patrick Cesar, George Teh. We are taught to be brave in war-in-short, all the standards of the whites are impressed upon us. Do you suppose, then, we can remain passive while our most elementary right trampled upon? Has tacituation without representation ceased to be typical?" "Again, look at the large number of uneducated native whites who are bitterly fighting and who are already have what Negroes are fighting for." They are the Laides of the Hiram Johnson the Librarians and the Baptist Neocons. Why not the Doubasses, the Treators, the Owenses and the Andeolphs? But this objection to our protesting is a hopeful sign; it shows that conscience is at work. Dixon rebelled an instant and convinced "A similar number of whites would undoubtedly take more active measures to gain their rights, but the Negro, not much educated and without efficient organization, is almost helpless, and has to plead for that which he might demand were he untested.

"Look at the Italians, the Poles and all the others." Your mouth may be fair." "Bull, go say, yes." "These people are all white," replied Bison, "and, however hard the first generation may find it, such hard experiences being the almost entirely to their own deficiencies, the second one or so biennial with the first one never being regarded as a separate entity. Another point, sir, the immigrant not only gets ahead of the Negro but of the native whites as well. Just look at the names on the signs along any business street or to any directory of whites is the most devoid of all—for example, the white of the Southern States, like Georgia and the Carolinas. The most progressive Northern States are those that have received the greatest proportion of the immigration, the most Japanese; the least poor native, those that have received little, like Maine and New Hampshire. The same holds true of the Western ones. The least progressive of the groups that make up the majority of the Anglo-Saxons; I refer directly to the poor white mountainters of Kentucky and Tennessee. *Albert Bushell Hart, in his book, 'The Southern South,' compares them with the peoples of New England in the seventeenth century. Then, they see the good Anglo-Saxon steel living in places like Cinnamont and Randolph Counties, New York, Arrosing County, Maine, and Windham County, Connecticut.

Most communities of them are no better than primitive African ones, and certainly much below a people like the Italians. You speak of earth as is one. "The Negro, however, is growing out of the mass incubated in slavery. Even succeeding generation will be prolegitously ascertained of the manhood. I repeat, all that the blacks is training and opportunity. "No amount of training will ever make him anything else but a Negro. stapped the senator; is simply incapable of thinking himself.

"BERT" WILLIAMS TOOK CAKEWALK TO LONDON "BERT" WILLIAMS TOOK CAKEWALK TO LONDON --- The calk walk was introduced into London 1903 only upon the insistent demand of the royal audience. Williams and Walter company playing "in Dahoney" had not the slightest intention of, including this is dance in its repertoire, because it was pass here in America. It had been done to death and was a thing of the past in England they had heard about it and the Mother Queen was anxious to see it. And so the A. B. fad and many dignitaries, including one well known gentleman of about eighty summers, engaged different members of the company to teach them. Men and women leader of London's smartest set appeared at ten and eleven o'clock each morning at the stage door in dim deserted corner of the stage, or down in the gooey cefail they received their dancing lessons. When the queen saw the cake walk for the first time, she laughed and applauded, showing intense interest in the actual award of the cake. Georg Wagner attained her regal bigness very much, with his spory strut. She very graciously acknowledged receipt of photographs of the two stars. The entire company participated in the cake walk after the royal family had made it the feature of the show and there were many number of nightly repeaters who came in just to witness the walk and the award of the cake. Each couple was escorted into the limelight by dessert shippers, little eccentric step by way of introducing them. Then the cake cake would be awarded according to the plaudits of the audience. About this time, the celebrated actor, Seymour Hicks, was producing a new smart revue. In it, all the current plays were barresed and travestied and singing and dancing specialties occurred. He appealed to Williams and Waller to make a cake walk so that he himself might introduce as his contribution to the revue, an indication of Williams in the cake walk. They taught him, but it took five weeks of good hard work with lessons every day, to master it. It is a matter of theatrical history, that understanding how the shape of the thing the walks were a shape of the Hicks line, he made the hit of the snow, "The Cherry Girl," in that number. Williams and Walker played the Shaftesbury Theater, until the day after Christmas, when they started touring the province. They played Tull, Sheffield and Manchester. Later they played Edinburgh and Glasgow and while touring they joined the Maconie order with others of their company, in Edinburgh, Scotland. Williams was always anxious to become a Mason. He joined the three degrees he obtained during Waverley Lodge 157 in Edinburgh. While playing Edinburgh he took the first degree and then went on to Glasgow. When the time came for the second degree they were about to depart for Manchester, so a special dispensation was granted and the second degree was taken at $ a. m. on the day of departure. He then played a week in Glasgow, returned to Edinburgh and went to the Royal Archt, St. Andrew's Chapter 83. (From Bert Williams Son of Lester by Helen Rowland, price $2 net.)

S.—Tristees of Wilberforce will meet in joint session Saturday to straighten out a tangle. State appropriations for the industrial departments have been held up for several weeks on the part of the members of the Board of Control, appointed by the governor of the state, regarding the appointment of Prof. Richard C. Bundy, son of Dr. Charles Bundy, pastor of the A. M. E. Church, in Youngstown, O. to the position of superintendent. According to some of the members of the Board of Control, Bundy was elected to the position by fewer than enough members of the board of trustees to constitute a quorum. The appointment of Bundy was made in July before the new law requiring control board apportionment states, as a precedent to State support, became effective. Instructors in the Combined Normal and Industrial Department have not been paid for a month and numerous complaints regarding certain changes in the personnel of the faculty have also been made to the board.

Games For Younger Children TAG-THE-WALL RELAY The players should all be seated, an even number in each row of seats. At a signal the last player in each line runs forward and tags the front wall. As soon as this player is out of the aisle, the others all move backward one seat. This leaves the front seat vacant, and the trunner, having touched the wall, returns immediately and takes this vacant front seat. As the player sits down he raises his hand, which is a signal for the player who is now the last one in the line to run forward, the line moving backward one place as soon as he is out of the aisle. He in turn, having touched the wall, takes the vacant front seat. The play is continued in this way until everyone in the row has run. The one wins whose player, hitting originally in the front seat, dest returns to his seat. As in all schoolroom games where there is running, the seated players should be very careful to keep their feet under the desks so there will be nothing in the aisles over which the runners may step.

Naught but the patience of Job would have stood it without a "row" I suspect, but quarrelling is not in my line. Given a human, male or female, I can see the idea, my system is to give that person all the rope he wants, for experience alone teaches. "We have to eat," was his retort to my remonstrance that our groceries were large for the family. He did what, whosoever he elected to bring home and whatsoever the cost. Our grocery bill was $40 to $50 a month for three years before I got a "squeal" out of him. Then I kept accurate account of our meat bill for groceries, our meat bill alone amounted to a dollar a day, for he wanted it. I showed him the bill every month until he began to "grow" a little. Then I went out to the market myself, and the first month reduced the price, where it has remained ever since. The reason for my unbound of tolerance was that his entire family believes that anything in the way of management is the result of stinginess, and there's a mixture of Dutch and Scots in my made-up name, "Singier" than I am now, however.

U derestimating Measles "They'll have them sooner or later, so I suppose they might just as well have them now when all the other children are staying in too," is the will-night homebound attitude of many parents who were exposed to measles, they want to join their playmates. Perhaps, says the health magazine Hygiena, if these parents knew that in the one year 1929 to 1969 children in the United States were exposed, that many more died from bovine-pneumonia following measles or later from tuberculosis, and that other thousands were left to suffer lifelong from "weak" eyes and "running eyes" care. The parents with appropriate dress instead of as one of the lessor fills that every child is heir to. Tomatoes for Winter Tomatoes may be preserved for winter use by simply washing ripe, perfectly sound tomatoes and plating them in a stone jar containing a brine, strong enough to thaw an egg.

J Forgetful Betty Forgetful Betty Betty was a small girl in a family of nine. Owing to the large number of offspring to be fed and clothed, and considering the size of the roll, which seemed to arrive so slowly, but really came semicompletely the parents considered it necessary to economize in every way possible without physical strain. One morning Betty was preparing to make her daily trip to the store. As her mother named slowly, she the carefully selected articles three times. Betty was reminded to carry the vinegar jug along. The few precious cents it would save meant much. But Betty's thoughts were catering to some trivial things which was to her immature mind of more importance. So the world had barely slipped from her mothers' lips when Betty was on her way, but nevertheless with petting, gaze container and entirely slipped from her memory that she was taken it, and she never thought of it again until she returned. She placed her neatly packages upon the table charriely, turned and started out the door to join the other children in their joyful play. But her mother noticing anything but seeing anything which looked to be about the correct size she inquired about the vinegar, for she was now ready to use it in the preparation of the midday meal. Betty gazed at the purchases with a keen look, knowing what the result of the inquisition would be, and replied, "I forgot." As this was getting to be too much of a habit with Betty, she was called to attend a little session in an empty room at the rear of the house.

Women are always disappointed when their silk stockings become hard after they are washed. The silk has lost a natural dressing in the socks. You can wash them if you squeeze the juice of half a lemon in the rinse water (a wash pan of water). The acid counteracts the soap and gives the stockings the softness they had when new. Lemon juice may be used for the stockings or two tablespoons of vinegar for black or brown will have the same effect. DO YOU SUFFER FROM FEMALE WEAKNESS?

For months I have been oppressed with a passion that has entirely superceded every other feeling of my heart; that passion I love you—you alone are the object of an vain hope in his endeavor to drive an object from my mind, by every art that I could possibly think of. In vain have I sought every amusement that might have a tendency to relieve my mind from the bias which it has taken but love has taken that birth of my whole soul that I am unaware of one thought, one feeling, and that is always yourself, I neglect myself, my business, and can neither hear or see any one thing but you you hear the chief part of my life. Believe me I am alone. I assert that you may impossibly apart from you—when absent I feel in torture. This I solemnly assure you is a true description of the feeling with which my heart is agitated, and it remains only for you to give a reality to those feelings by a single word. Say but the word and I am the happiest or the most miserable of mankind. Yours until death.

If he does not win the dope will not be upset for the only other possibility is Billie Johnson, who excepting Tilden is the greatest ex-player of the hard-hitting stroking game in the world. The significant fact to indelibly impress if you are anxious to play first-class tennis is obvious to any student. The National Championship will not be won in 1923 with a soft ball ball choke stroke, and the history of tennis will show that no cut stroke ever has won a national championship This year not a single exponent of the 1877 slow ball reached the semi-finals, as a matter of fact the chief and head of the pat ball featernity by common consent, his exculpatory place in the first round. Oldly enough he fell before Robert Kinsey, who out patted him only himself to fall indoloriously before the maternal stroking of R. T. Hunter in strait.

R. Legendre, white, former Georgetown athlete, wearing the colors of the Newark Athletic Club, won the broad jump event with a leap of 24 feet 4.324 inches. Gourdin's best was 23 feet 5 in., to place second. Legendre did not require the handirap which was conceded him. Gourdin turned in good performances to carry off the honors in two of the New England A. A. U. championship which was postponed at the annual meet and run-off today. The star threw the discus 120 feet 11 1-2 inches to place first in that event and tossed the javelin 165 feet 3 inches to that event both H. V. F.

Dolphy, only colored contestant of 125, became the amateur champion in the Central Park tournament in the Central Park tournament Saturday of last week. Jim Watson Sees Battling Siki Jim Watson Sees Battling Siki YES T ORED DEMPSEY, THE DODGER EVERYBODY WHO HAS seen Battling Ski, marvels at the long thick builtside adornment he sports. Matted, his hair is so long that it covers part of his forehead and is early and three or four inches long. Take it from me. It is not Ski's fault. Clippers are practically unknown in Africa where the Battler was born, and none too many in big European cities. If a man wants his hair cut off over there, he gets his "hear" slaved and that's that. French barbers rarely use a comb with slosssons. They grab the hair between the first and second fingers and use the shears on all that sticks out, being careful not to cut their fingers in the process. Mayhe Siki will adopt the U, S, style and get all his hair clipped off like Nortok and Godfrey and jack Johnson, leaving a shiny, bald head. Or he may try the Poro or Madame Walker method and change his curly hair into slik, course strands. But he has to wear a headband like it is, fearing like Sumpfman of old, to lose his strength by getting a hair out. In this event any fighter who hits Siki on the "beam" might as well be dearing a pillow, for all the hurt it does the Senegalese. DUBISSETTE IS N. C. STATE CHAMPION TENNIS PLAYER In the Men's Singles, the semifinals left Dr. M. E. DuBissette, of Wilson, in the upper bracket and Rev. B. C. Robeson, of Fayetteville, in the lower. Dr. DuBissette had come in handy fast, through a hard field, in one match having eliminated the former champion, Dr. Furlonge, in straight sets, 7-5, 6-4. The final found these two players facing each other before the largest gallery that had ever witnessed a similar match in this State. Robeson ran out of the set 6-2, but DuBissette shoved flashes of what was to follow when he took the second set 7-5, continually finding Robeson out of position and shooting a stiff forehand down the sidelines. Robeson took the longest seq of the match when he won the third, 9-7, and showed his best form of the afternoon in this set, for while DuBissette had at last found himself, Robeson, by winning a able to smash through to victory. After the ten minutes rest Duissette quickly discovered that he was the stronger of the two and by a meleeless bombardment of his opponent's back-hand run out the next two sets 7-5, 6-3, for the match and the first leg on the S. W. Richardson cup. In the Women's Singles, Miss Natalie Bassett's Mint, defended her sister, Miss Lillian Hines, in straight sets, 6-2, 6-3, and thus secured a leg on Raleigh Cup.

Lockett Atlantic City, Sept. 20.—William "Sty" Wood, famed football player of Lincoln University, departed from the shore last week for his home in Codea, Ga., to visit his parents before returning to school. He will return to Lincoln to take his place in the college, he is allowed to participate in the inter-collegiate football games as he has played four years. His brother, Howard, who has also been in the resort during the summer, will enter the Pennsylvanian institution as a freshman in the college, with a degree of interest in comparison with the more illustrious "Sty."

Heritage, of Fayetteville, accomplished the expected when they walked away in straight sets with Dr. DiLissottree and B. B. Church, of Wilson, of Fayetteville, his match was linked to two sets because of approaching darkness. Among the out-of-town visitors were: Dr. and Mrs. Clyde Donnell, Mrs. Nell Hunter, Mr. Anne and Mayor Whitted, of Durham; Dr. and Mrs. McCluckey, of Durham; Dr. and Mrs. Taylor, of Mrs. Taylor, the Misses Otey, and Mr. W.

Constance, Cotton, Harrison a n. of Anderson, and Mr. Magnum of Oxford. An interesting side-light which shows the State-wide interest in the tournament was the fact that tennis enthusiasts telephoned from Asheville at the other end of the State to learn the results of the matches. It is proposed to hold a tennis annual tournament in Durham.

DEMPSEY CHAMP, BUT New York, Sept. 20. — Dempsey is champion by his victory over Firpo. BUT "he has only one more job on his hands, and that is to put him in the spotlight." That is what thousands of fans said as they left the Yankee Ball Park last Friday night. Another thing they discussed was the way Dempsey violated the Boxing Commission's rules by hitting him. Firpo while he was trying to get up, and permitting someone else to help him back into the ring when Firpo knocked him thru the ropes. Rules declare that the boxer must when his opponent is down, and must return to the ring unassisted, when knocked outside the ropes. ```markdown ``` CODFEY NORFOLK JOHNSON MAYBE SIKI WILL ADOPT THE U.S. STYLE OF HAVING HIS HAIR CUT. NORFOLK JOHNSON I WILL ADOPT THE U.S. AVING HIS HAIR CUT. HITTING SIKI ON THE HEAD IS LIKE HITTING A PILLOW. HITTING SIKI ON THE HEAD IS LIKE HITTING A PILLOW WILLS SUES DEMPSEY By William Pickens (A. N. P.) Isn't it a sight for the gods! --and a sensation for your funny bone! --that Harry Wills must even be compelled to compel Dempsey stand up for a fight, --and may even fail to catch the "Dodger" by this harmful method. Two years ago New York State Boxing Commission said that Dempsey would be compelled, BY LAW, to fight Wills within one year. They later it seemed that white folks got their heads together and Dempsey was allowed to dodge on till the present day. Just think of it! In order to get a fair fight out of the white man, the Negro must appeal to the Supreme Court of the State, --but whenever he is handed one to one, the whites will win by a wholly unequal fight. When one hundred, or one thousand, whites can go with gums and chase one empty-handed black, the fight comes of promptly. But where there is to be a reference, a time-bell, a set of rules about "foulling," and a one-to-one match, a set of rules needed to get the white man to stand up to it, O, of course, it is different when there is a gang, --when there is someone near to trip the Negro, to grab his legs and pull him down, or to attack him from the rear while the "brave" one attacks him in the back, and it is dead easy to get a fight of that kind. And now, Mr. Dempsey hurries to announce that "just because" Wills appealed to the courts, "I will never fight" Dempsey. Dempsey was in just a bit of a hurry to make that announcement. It came so easy, that we suspect he was just looking for some good pretext to say that,--for the last two years, for now, for anyone, for anyhow, if they are not to be appealed to for the settlement of points of law? Is it a crime for Wills to ask the State to make Dempsey stand by his pledges and to lose the losing Commission stand by its own public announcements? CHARGES TRUMPED UP. SAYS BROWN Indianapolis, Ind., Sept. 20—Charges upon which he was suspended were "trumped-up" Edgar G. Brown, National Singles Tennis Champ told a big group of fans assembled here in the "Y" during homecoming week. He faced of Boltimore" said Brown, "together with several men and two sweet ladies both with a perverted respect for the truth, met clandestinely around 2 o'clock in the morning and decided that an apology was absolutely forthcoming because I spoke above a whisper to a West Indian player." "The further fabulous charge that a certain Baltimore official was a big stiff and a gambler was proven to be wrong. What further apology does the good doctor desire? I have always been for him in spite of some of the company he keeps." Brown produced the affidavit of several officials who swore that others had decided upon the suspension course right or wrong. He also displayed letters from several hundred fans expressing sympathy for the "unsporstmanlike and rotten suspension." During the "1877 tennis lambs" of the East to come out into the open with their fight, Brown pledged himself to keep up the fight against the soft pitable pot ball artists in the game until our boys and girls will drive the ball with the same stroking movement as the best exponents of the American game today." Jamala Kid of New York, and Tim Jackson of Washington Court House, O., are scheduled to battle over the ten-round route at Washington Court House Monday night. BALTIMORE 一 Tex May Hold Firpo-Wills Tilt "A bout between Firpo and Wills is an outdoor attraction," said Rickard. "If I can make arrangements I will hold the bout around Decem-ber 15, when it is too late now to hold any more bouts here. I think it would prove a great match, because people have been impressed with the showing of Firpo and would be eager to see how companies with the South American "The winner of a Firpo,Wills match would be Dempsey's logical opponent for a bout next year to be held in the summer. I have been told by Jack Kearns that Dempsey will do no more boxing this year, so it is futile to try to arrange another heavyweight title match before 1924. Wills is not getting any younger. He has been fighting for some time, and while he is being compelled to wait for the opportunity to meet the champion of the world with him, he should be fighting. Nothing in this world keeps a ring warrior in better fettle than ring engagements. He might train, as he is training every day, and yet gain nothing in the way of righting himself for a real fight. Actual combat is the thing and Wills should fight right along and make them respond. He will do everything he needs. It is the best possible convictor. There is no getting away from that. Kid Blake, the hard-hitting Baltimore scraper, knocked out Bill Toddle in the seventh round of their scheduled 12-round fight before a packed house at the Battleship Bay. The 19-year-old September 3rd. A right uppercut to the jaw dropped Toddle for the fatal count. COVER YOUR HEAD ast re IE BERG BOY HIMSELF" REE-USA altimore, Md.

Residence, 1204 West Fayette Street Office hours: 8 to 10 a.m. and 6 to 8 evenings WILLS-DEMPSEY NEXT Winner of Wills-Firpo Bout Would Box Dempsey In New York Next Summer New York, Sept. 20.—A match between Luis Angel Firpo and Harry Wills, New Orleans Negro challenger for the heavyweight title, to be held around December 1st, and a Dempsey some time next summer—that is the present program of Promoter Tex Rickard, who conducted last Friday night's bout between Dempsey and Firpo. Rickard yesterday declared his readiness to a Firpo-Wills bout in the Argentine. He already has Firpo signed to an agreement by which the South American heavyweight promises to fight Wills in his native land below the equator any time before next April. Rickard plans tomorrow to discuss with Paddy for the imposition of the Wills for a bout between the "Brown Panther" of New Orleans, and Firpo. Rickard spent part of yesterday in conference with Firpo. When the promoter left the Argentine giant he admitted that he was discussing prospects for a new franchise. Rickard asserted, however, that he would not arrange the hour as an indoor attraction because of the fact that no indoor arena would be available to eager to compete, the foremost challengers to Dempsey's title in action.

BURGESS EARL JOHNSON WINS DETROIT MARATHON Repeats Fear of 1921 by Winning 23rd Annual Masonic Marathon at Detroit; 2 Hrs., 9 Sec. Detroit, Mich. Sept. 20.—Duplicating his feat of 1921, Earl Johnson, formerly of Baltimore, now of Pittsburg, national 5-mile champion, won the third annual Masonic Marathon here last Saturday. The distance was 2.5 miles. Johnson's time was 2 hours 9 1-20 seconds, and he finished 200 yards ahead of Victor Glance, white, of his city, who was second. Seven-seven started the grind, nine of them finished. The race is remarkable in that Earl has been training lately for the 3 and 5-mile Bad Shoes Cost Four Minutes Johnson allowed Glance and some of the other runners to crowd him during the first ten miles. When the eleventh mile was marked off Johnson had taken the lead, but he lost four minutes changing his shoes, which had gone bad, and fell back into third place. Johnson was unable, or else chose not to overtake Glance until the nineteenth mile. From that point to the finish the race was a thrilling struggle between Glance and the fleet Easton, who managed to put the 200 yards gap between them as they neared the tape. In winning Saturday, Johnson repeated his triumph of 1921 when he won the first annual Mascotte Monster race of 22 miles, two miles and a half ahead of his nearest competitor. The prize this year was another monster silver loving cup presented by the Mayor. A.

Hilldale, while once or twice, pushed from the pinnacle in the Eastern League, practically had a cinch of it all the way. The former League was the Black Sox, the Baltimore entry. The locals after hovering around the top position, actually going into first place for an overnight sojourn, began to slide in mid-season until they reached the cellar position where they reside and will lightly push.

VIRGINIA SEMINARY BEGINS FOOTBALL VIRGINIA SEMINARY BEGINS FOOTBALL Lynchburg, Va., Sept. 20.—The Virginia Seminary and College football squad with the exception of a few of the varsity men of last year who had not then returned, were put through the first workout of the season on September 5th. Not a man of last year's team was lost by graduation, therefore the varsity eleven will be comprised of most of those who remain practically the same with Capt. Hoyle and Scott at wing positions; "Top" Jordan and "Fatty" Lanier at tackles, Sheld and "Damble" Brown at guards, and Winfield at center. The speedy backfield of Moore Watson and Tyler, will have the addition of Wheeler, the shining star of Central High School, Louis K. Ayton (Ky.) and Terry Doe, the new recruit from Canada, bid fair to secure regular berths behind the "Dragon's" line. The schedule is as follows: Sept. 29, Charlesville at Lynchburg; Oct. 6, St. Paul at Lawrenceville, Va., Oct. 13, Howard University at Washington, D.C.; Oct. 20, Va., Union at Lienburg; Oct. 27, Christiabury, Inst. at Christiaburg, Va.; Nov. 3rd, West Virginia at Romuleo tpending; Nov. 10, Riddle University at Charlottes, N.C.; Nov. 17, National Training School at Lynchburg; Nov. 20, Petersburg at Lynchburg.

JOHNSON TRAINS FIRPO New York, Sept. 20.—Before Angel Firpo, "wild Bull of the Panas" fights again, he has engaged Jack Johnson to show him the timer points of boxing. Johnson started in with Firpo before the fight with Demussey, but the South American soon got a swelled head and refused to take any more instructions. FOOTBALL GAMES WANTED The football eleven of the United States Steamship Cumberland, stationed at Annapolis, Md., would like to arrange football games with teams in Baltimore and Washington, D.C., weighing about 50 pounds, D. S., Address: M. A. Anderson, S. S., Address: Cumberland, Annapolis, Md. --- 46 YEARS OF HONEST MERCHANDISING SPORTS MIRROR SPORTS MIRROR Now that the Dempsey-Firpo bout has become history, the question of a Wills-Dempsey fight takes on greater significance than in the entire five or six years it has been hanging fire. The world's champion in a hot-headed moment brought on by the efforts of Wills and his manager Paddy Mullins to obtain by court action what they regarded as their rights is reported to have declared that now he would never fight Wills. No one familiar with the boxing game will accept Dempsey's declaration as final. There are several reasons why he may take advantage of the fact that he did not issue this ultimatum with his hand resting on a Bible. The citation of two or three will suffice, as we see it. The first and likewise most important reason is that a fight with Wilts within the next year will be the means of adding the biggest slice of bacon to the champion's financial smokehouse of any bout he ever engaged in. That we mean by this, and do not hesitate in saying is, that a Dempsey-Wills match will draw a bigger crowd of fight fans than the bout with either Carpenter or Firpo. Basing our calculations on human nature in general, and the fortitude of Jack Kearns, Dempsey's manager in particular, where the jingle of the coin was concerned, we don't think the pair of "dough" boys are going to pass up this chance. Which brings us to our second reason, namely, that if they do, the public will record it as proof positive of what a good many fans have already hinted, namely, that Dempsey is afraid of Wills. A refusal would be reported as a weak loophole, to dodge the match. Writer Calls Firpo One-Armed Greenhorn That's what a sports writer in the Pitcher Press calls Luis Angel Firpo and complements on his match with bempsey last week in port as follows: "Sports writers may pour out columns about the 'puck' and 'courage' that both men exhibited—but the face remains that for the sake of putting a force into the pocket of a few leathers an experienced and dangerous boxer was allowed to make a punching big out of a one-armed fist." "If he (Dempsey) wishes to redeem himself * * * * he will meet Harry Wills, a real boxer, whom he has been dodging for a couple of years." Siki To Meet Godfrey In Philadelphia Philadelphia, Sept. 20,—Battling Ski, the French, Frenchese boxer, and George Godfrey, the heavy-weight, who was discovered and trained by Jack Johnson, have been matched by Jack Hamilton, local boxing promoter, to box an eight-round no-decision bout here October 9th. This will be Siki's first appearance in an American ring since his arrival in the United States three weeks ago. Siki Gets License New York, Sept. 29.—Battling Siki, the Sehgalese boxer, now in this country, was granted a license this week to box in New York State. Siki was present at the Dempsey-Firpo bout, where he expected to be introduced, but for some reason he is not invited to the ring. He is appearing this week at the Jafayete Theatre, where he is giving many of exercises used by boxers in making preparations for their fights. GOODYEAR RAINCOAT FREE Goodyard Mfz.

KING THE BOXING GAME Old Master Defeated Wills Sam Lankford Beat Wills When He Was Young—Wills Turned Tables Few Years Ago B. GEORGE B. UNDERWOOD Anyone who thinks that the public will be deceived by any attempt to justify the Dempsey-Firpo force through belittling Harry Wills and surreptitiously camouflaging his real record should have his brain examined. Wills stands out above the other heavies like a pine amid a grove of oak trees. The public long since has registered its opinion as to who was Dempsey's buried monument. In effect those persons who are dependent of Wills, fully require: "Why, whom has Wills whipped? Has he beaten Bill Brennan, Jess Willard, Billy Miske, Georges Carpenter, Tom Gibbons, Battley Linsky or anyother well-known heavyweights? Oh, yes, to be sure, he beat Fred Fulton! But who is Fulton? Do those who launch such inquiries imagine for one minute that the public does not understand that the public why Wills has not knocked all those heavyweights from under their hats is that you couldn't drag one of them with a team of horses into the ring with Wills? Do they think the public does not understand how hard it has been for Wills to get matches, how he has had to overcome every obstacle, but ter down every barrier, in order to get any matches at all and earn a means of livelihood through his chosen profession. Do they does the record book show of Harry Wills? What plain and unvarnished truths does it uncover? WHAT RECORDS SHOW It already has been shown that happened to the only two leading winters, which could be invigorated by the ring with Wills, Smith and Fulton. What of his other battles? How about Sam Langford? Sam Langford, in his prime, was one of the greatest fighters that ever drew on a glove. As a young midfielder, he pounds with heavyweight Jack Johnson and Johnson never again could be inflicted into the same ring with him. The superiority between Harry Wills and Sam Langford never was convincingly demonstrated. He was also known for light-heavyweight—and it must be remembered that Harry, in less than 10 years, grew from a skinny, scrawny, colored boy, so light that he was a jockey, into a 170-pounder—Wills twice was knocked out by Langford, once in 14 rounds and once in 19. The fact must be remembered, and his winters in Langford had his finger peeked the white Wills had not yet got his full strength and growth and still was limited in experience. All of the Wills-Langtord bouts were savage, gruelling affairs, and even at the period of development Wills was at during the early bouts with Langtord. Sam never could get him inside of 10 rounds. It took Sam 14 rounds to knock Dove out. Wills the first time and 19 draw. ter ed Wills Wills When He Was turned Tables Few s Ago rounds the second. If we are not mistaken, in that 19-round fight Wills floored Langford half a dozen times and gave him a terrible heating before Sam succeeded in getting over the haymaker in the 19th. BEATS SAM LANGFORD Gradually Wills got his growth and strength and probed by his pigistic experience. He turned the tables on Langford, knocking him out in six rounds, stopping him in seven and gaining 15-round decisions. There was no see-saw, "you win, draw, 1 win, draw, you win," Jack Britton vs. Ted Lewis stuff about the Langford-Wills duels. Langford beat Wills consistently in between 1911 and 1916 and beat Langford as consistently from 1918 to 1921. Wills had to fight Langford often because there were few, mighty few, other boxes who would fight him, but the battles were on the level. The fact that Wills after three years' trying came to show superiority over Langford may be ascribed just as much to Sam's slipping as to Harry's improving. But that the change was due more to improvement by Langford than to retrogression by Langford is shown by the post that Wills turned the tide on Sam McVey and Joe Jenacinto in a like manner. There was never much to choose between Wills and Joe Jeanneette, but McVey, good enough to get a 2-4 round decision over Wills in 1914, proved time prey to Harry after Harry got his growth in 1918 and was knocked out by Harry in five rounds. Langford, McVey and Jeanneette all were great fighters. No one with one lota of pugilistic knowledge will attempt to class any of the white heavyweights of the last decade with the exception of Dempsey with them. Wills undoubtedly was a greater fighter than either McVey or Jeanneette and just as great a fighter as Sam Langford. Which was the greater Wills or Langford, and will it be a question Langford knocked Wills out in 1914, and 1915, Harry had not reached the height of his physical and ring powers, and when Wills knocked out Langford in 1918, Sam undoubtedly had started to slip. Contests between Negro heavyweights often are viewed, and rightly viewed, with suspicion. It is so hard for black boxers to get bouts and make their living at their profession that they frequently "carry" one another along in order to be able to get work.

Ferdinand Q. Morton, New York's colored Tammany leader, is the kind of politician who ought to supersede the "Hat-in-Hand" politicians who have infested Capitol Hill for the past quarter of a century. Democrats wanted Mr. Morton to make a speech here in the recent mayoralty campaign in order to get the colored voters into line to support the Democratic candidates. The Tammany leader did not ask "What will I get out of it," but "What will the colored people of Baltimore get out of it, if they vote for the Democratic candidates?" White Democratic leaders were mum. And so Mr. Morton stayed in New York, where Tammany believes in rewarding the faithful, and where Charley Murphy does not draw the political color-line.

The Prisoner's Aid Society is investigating the brutal whipping of an inmate of the House of Reformation at Cheltenham by three guards. Samuel Gompers, in a letter to Governor Ritchie and Mayor Jackson, declares that the system of hiring boys out as convict labor to private contractors is not in vogue in other enlightened States and ought to be abolished in Maryland. Cheltenham is a disgrace to the State. Long has it been run for the benefit of those who draw salaries or get contracts out of it rather than for the benefit of the inmates. Instead of sending under-aged youths to school, it hires them out to private contractors and surrounding farmers. No matter what it's motives, the American Federation of Labor deserves the thanks of every right-thinking citizen for its stand on the convict lease system in vogue there. It brings again to the fore the question of why the taxpayers' money must be used to keep alive an institution like Cheltenham.

In the past ten years Baltimore has trained at least a dozen teachers who have gone into Washington schools as experienced and capable instructors. Some of the teachers leave for higher pay, others to get rid of the depressing atmosphere of the High School here. Perhaps the School Board is willing to have the High School hold on to its reputation as a training centre for other high schools, but are the parents also willing?

Last week he walked out of the Tombs prison pending the hearing of his appeal in a higher United States court. Three months he has been imprisoned, part of his sentence of five years in Atlanta and $1,000 for using the mails to defraud. Before his arrest, there was not in America a more skillful financier or a more eloquent one. He had more ways of taking in people's money and holding it than wise old New York ever heard of. Banks, steamship lines, laundries, chain-stores, funds of many kinds and classes were used by Mr. Garvey to gather in the "bits of silver." Halted in one line, he turned quickly to another, until the long arm of the law reached out for a final stay. The strange part about it is that Mr. Garvey's moral sense does not allow him to admit that he is in error. His arrest, he claims, is due to the hostility of enemies or rival associations. His conviction came as the result of "apite work" he is a "martyr." Maybe a term in Atlanta will change Mr. Garvey's ideas about collecting money illegally, but certainly three months in the Tombe has not. The EDITORIAL PAGE of THE AFRO-AMERICAN OLD TIMER AT CONVENTION Attends Republican Convention Trying To Get a Line on Things The reporter met Old Timer at the Republican State Convention talking with the leaders and delegates. /////// "Trying to get a line on the situation?" the reporter asked.

"What do you know generally?" asked the reporter. "Nuthin', 'rept the Skule Board put one over you Baltimore folks put one over you Baltimore folks," replied O. T. "How so?' asked the reporter in surprise, and the teachers of the city all got hot up when they thought 'Fesser Lockerman's successor as principal of the Teachers' Trainin' Skule would be an outsider.

RAMBLIN' ROUND CHICAGO RAMBLIN' ROUND CHICAGO WITH ROGER DIDER (For The Assoc, Negro Press) Chicago, Sept. 29 — It is three-thirty o'clock Sunday morning. Earlier, in the evening before, a huckster sold good peaches on one corner of Thirty-fifth street and Prairie avenue, and a white evangelist exhorted Negro gumblers on another. They're gone home to bed now (the buckster and the presacher) but the presacher's listeners are on the foreday-mond mob gathered in front of Bud Gorman's and Jack Whites' Paradise Gardens, the little but loud retreat now seated with a government padlock. Twenty-nine hundred of the 3,000 Yellow cabs in Chicago have crowded into five street following a collision between two cars. Two colored women, reverds perhaps, are in one of the cabs. Shattering glass has cut them. Covington, Negro policeman in plain clothes, steps up on the scene, looking as harmless and as sharp as Erskine Tate of the Vendome Danny Orchestra. He doesn't wear his star on his forehead. Sometimes back, Rogers, celebrated cartoonist, for the Defender and Covington lived in the same house. It was months before the young cartoonist suspected the modest policeman as such. "Take her to the hospital," Covington showing his star, orders the cab driver. The white man hesitates at this strong voice of a Negro. If he takes the woman to 21st street, the head offices of the company, their doctor will examine her and/or up her arm. Then that woman to his. His follow drivers around. All Yellow Cab routes seem to lead to Thirty-fifth and Prairie. "Take her to 21st street," they command in defiance of Covington's order. Some sharm, quick action follows. A cash driver comes out of it with a bloody mouth and nose. "Now, get out!" Covington yells. The drivers flee in hurried disorder, white drivers, most of them, from Texas, Georgia, Russia, Ireland, everywhere and to the driver of this brown-skin seion of the law. "You, you get in that car," he commands the first recieltent driver. "Drive to the station." "You follows think you can get away with anything around here," he hurks into the car of the driver of another cab he has commanded. "You can't get away with it. I am going to defend my color just like you defend yours. Now you go ahead and call some white cowers and see how far that gets you. Drive to the station." The drivers of the two cars turn back their meters and start to fall. "Them Yellow drivers was wrong", confides the white drivers of a Black and White cab, "That guy, the coper, Covington, he's a swell feller. Covington, him, for the, the Yeller fellows, but in the game a long time, and I know; I used to drive for the Yellers), they have their orders to try to keep these accidents covered up. They take you to the main office and salve you up." JOB'S I'VE HAD Worner T.

While holding down this position, he earned the fabulous salary of $5 per month.

Upon beink asked why he took up law cause I thought it suited me he answered: "I took up law be- THE LONG LINE OF MATRIMONIAL VICTIMS Here it is just as Mr. Watson has represented it- WAZZON They thou they would be happy as the wife of some man, as the mother of his children and the mistress of his house.

'Alas and alack. Time held for them only bitterness and disappointment. He was selfish and a spendthrift. He could not bear to skimp and save to take care of the extra burdens that a wife brought to him. The children became a nuisance and a burden. Parental disagreements became more frequent, the bright life outside beckoned, and the man slipped off into it leaving them at home with their offspring—DESERTED. Stop into the Criminal Courts some morning and listen to the "non-support" cases, the district attorney calls them. Until you do you will have no idea how many times marriage is a failure.

Jones The Impossible South It would seem that with the wholesale migration of colored people from under the yoke of injustice and Jim-crowsmish of the South in face of the propaganda set going to stem the date, he would have been a practical idea other than the old time trick of buying in one way or another a set of loud-mouthed and itching-palmed set of Negro leaders. It has always been possible to obtain a number of of the masses which could be counted upon to administer sufficient soothing syrup and but an anesthetic to dull the pain of the masses through any crisis that came out "them days have gone out" and the continued migration shows. The relation of the so-called interracial movement in the South to this policy, is also interesting Sometimes ago Prof. Mimms, of the Department of Socialology, Vanderbilt, University, and himself a leader in the interracial movement stated that the policy of the liberal South would be to stand behind the "conservative" Negro leader and keep hands off of those with radical learning. Thus they must be maintained in the South and belief in the abolition of the unjust Jim-crow system, equal wages and opportunities, privilege vote as any citizen should, immediately places any man in the radical group. An Art Institute The constant growth of the number of young Negro men and women aspiring to accomplishment along artistic lines and the growing spirit of prejudice and antagonism is ascribed as shown by Augusta Savage's case, raises the question as to what will be practically done to insure the development of this group. While the fight for the elimination of prejudice in art must go on and every effort must be made to white institutions open to colored students, it must not be forgotten that the vital thing is the development of these ambitious young people. In art we have an appealing form of racial exposition that must not be overlooked. The question of starting purely racial institutions is a l i w a y a fraught with the danger of seeming to be a threat. There are times when this is the lesser of the two evils. The time has no doubt come when there should be definite encouragement of Negro art through the establishment or agency to promote it. Why not an art institution? THE WHATNOT COLUMN THE WHATNOT COLUMN (By Robert P. Edwards, for The Associated Negro Press) 40—What was the Carrizal incident? In 1916 the United States sent a punitive expedition under General Pershing into Mexico in pursuit of the Villa forces, which had raided Negro regiments, the 10th Cavalry and the 24th Infantry, were a part of this expedition. On June 21st Troops C and K of the 10th Cavalry were ambushed at Carrival by some 600 Mexican soldiers. At 10 a.m. the black soldiers dismounted in the face of a withering machine gun fire, deployed, charged the Mexicans and killed their commander and put them to flight.

With hat in hand, the Southern Negro is more than safe, he is happy—if he is that kind of man in memory of the old time 'darky', schools, hospitals and orphanage have been set on foot. "A tender, patient relationship exists between this unambiguous, likable creature and the white people of the South. The white man's Negro get all that he is entitled to and often more in the courts, as a domestic, on the farm, with trowel or hammer. I never witnessed an act of injustice to such a Negro who does not desire his right social or political." The Negro of property, learning and position is as easily prone to render racial homage to the white lord and master as the humble hat-in-hand prototype in the South Change in condition does not always alter character. The essentiae of the Negro man are himself in the highest up as well as in the man farthest down. The educated and favored Negro often assumes a submissive attitude for motives of profit the same as the ignorant and unfunfortunate. They are both motivated by innate weakness of will and desire for the crumbs of favor that fall from the white man's table. practicable and dangerous. The requisite Negro becomes the benefactor of whatever good gifts the white man has to be stew. He enjoys a monoply of his gratis, grace and goodness. He is made the receiver for the colored race.

When milk was about half over, Jimmie, my little son says to me: "Buddy, what do they mean by extravagance?" I wanted to please the Missus so I thought I would say something in her favor, even if it did lower my prestige a little, so I says: "Anything that isn't a necessity is an extravagance." For instance, the cigar I smoke is an extravagance. The rouge and powder your mother buys is a necessity. So you see... I am thinking I was saying something in her favor, and this miniature mount on my head is the result. I don't know if it was the gas range or the kitchen cabinet that was on the floor.
