Los Angeles, Cal., NOV. 7, 1914 Attorney E. Burton Ceruti Attorney E. Burton Ceruti, whose portrait appears on this page, is one of the ablest jurists in Southern California. Admirably equipped by thorough training in the law and by a fine personality, he has won an enviable place before the Los Angeles bar. Without brag or ostentation, Mr. Ceruti has been able to win for his clients ninety per cent of the cases he has handled in this city. His methods of obtaining and handling cases conform to the approved methods of attorneys who entertain an exalted appreciation of the dignity of the profession. He is a splendid example of the not stoop to take advantage of any one. He is a lay reader in the Episcopal Church. His training and fitness for that high position is the result of careful study of the moral law. His sermons are convincing and pronounced with eloquence. He is connected with a number of the leading fraternal organizations of the state, being a member of Holland Lodge, F. & A. M., the Exalted Ruler of Golden West Lodge No. 86, I. B. P. O. E. W., Grand Representative of Damon Lodge No. 6, K. of P., and Chief Scribe of the Faben Phi Fraternity. He serves as the grand attorney for the Knights of Py [Image of a man with a serious expression, wearing a suit and tie.] man who is satisfied only with what he merits, and nothing more. That he has proved his efficiency is attested by the great number of cases handled by him each month. Attorney Ceruti was admitted to the Los Angeles County Bar on the 17th of January, 1912. His training began in the public schools of Jacksonville, Florida, and in the grammar schools of Nassau in the Bahamas, West Indies. Later he studied in the St. Augustine Normal and Industrial Institute in Raleigh, North Carolina, and in Shaw University. These institutions furnished him with the elementary knowledge of things, but for his equipment as a lawyer he studied at Howard University in Washington, the Brooklyn (New York) Law School, and St. Lawrence University at Canton, New York. From the latter university he was graduate with degree of Bachelor or Law. Mr. Ceruti is a man of high sense, of personal honor and would thias in California and is also the attorney for the Enterprise Collection Agency. While Attorney Ceruti has handled some of the most difficult cases presented to the courts of Los Angeles, many of them involving knowledge of subjects far removed from the ordinary range of a lawyer's studies, by his remarkable versatility, wide reading, intimate knowledge of human life and psychology, he has found it comparatively easy to win ninety out of every hundred cases which he has handled. The relation of an attorney to his client is one of such confidential nature as to preclude our obtaining the details of cases; but because the Burr Harris case attracted so much public notice, it is well here to call attention to the fact that in the handling of this case Attorney Ceruti displayed a genius and skill remarkable in the last degree. It will be remembered that Burr Harris was charged with murder and Attor- ney Ceruti won an acquittal at the first trial and is now waging a fight for the life of his client before the supreme court on an appeal from a judgment of conviction for murder in the first degree on his second trial. That Burr Harris still lives is due to the skilful manner in which Attorney Ceruti was able to handle his case. It is a matter of frequent occurrence for him to take cases that have been handled by other attorneys and, in a short while, win such cases for his clients. The secret of his notable achievements in this direction is due to the fact that he enters into his work with zeal, enthusiasm and indomitable will. He is a firm believer in punctuality and realizes as keenly as a man can the dangers in delays. It is therefore surprising how quickly he obtains results. A case which is destined to attract considerable attention throughout the state and which Attorney Ceruti will contest with vigor, is the discrimination in the public schools in El Centro. The colored people of that community have already organized a Parents' Association and have engaged Attorney Ceruti to handle their case. It is confidently believed that the attitude of the public on this question of segregation will be clearly seen-when Mr. Ceruti makes this appeal for fair play for the boys and girls of the colored race at El Centro. Lawyer J, H. Kelly, LL. B. The Eagle with pleasure presents this brief sketch of attorney J. H. Kelly, who was recently admitted to the practice of law in all the State courts of California, and is now located in room 49 of the Temple Block, just opposite the postoffice. Mr. Kelly comes to this community well prepared by education and experience in the practice of law to give efficient service to any and all who may entrust their work with him. He is a native of Missouri, and after receiving what learning he could from the common schools of Weston, Mo., he spent one year at Fisk University, Nashville, Tenn., and then three years at Lincoln institute, Jefferson City, Missouri. The next four years he spent at the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, where he took the scientific and law courses, graduating in 1891 with the degree of Bachelor of Laws, and the amusing part about him he yet remains an old bachelor. Mr. Kelly has had 22 years of active hard work in the practice, and after a long vacation previous to coming here he is now ready for work again. He is a Christian gentleman and was practicing those graces long before he thought on the study of law, so we feel HANT rd Times osperity nciples and sure that any work you may give him, will be properly attended to with promptness. You are free to consult with him at any time, he is ready for work in either branch, civil or criminal law, to give advice, examination of all important papers in respect to real and personal property, the collection of all bills and the practice of law in general, at room 49 THE MAN WHO WAS A MUSICIAN AND A FILM CREATOR WHERE HE WAS A FILM CREATOR WHERE HE WAS A MUSICIAN AND A FILM CREATOR Temple Block, 208 North Spring street, Los Angeles, Cal. Hospital Association Booming. Our article in last week's paper calling attention to the formation of one of the greatest beneficial associations brought forth many inquiries, and the good people in the community are highly enthusiastic over the idea. Already the membership is increasing daily, far beyond the expectations of those of us who are the progenitors. No one could stand by and not even enquire into the possibilities of such an uplifting beneficial organization, and then not be wholly enthusiastic. We want this thought to dwel upon the minds of all, and in these times it seems that the amount asked is within the mean of every negro man and his family in the city. Think what it means to be cared for in sickness and accident. Think what satisfaction it is to know you will be attended, night or day, at your beck and call: Think what it means to know your family will be cared for, and that you have already paid your doctor, your nurse, your hospital bill and you are entitled to all the care and comfort as though you paid $500. We are already taking in members and they are most enthusiastic, most of them subscribing for one year's care in advance—taking in their families. Some have many children to be looked after, and there are special rates for families which, too, are within the means of all. Have you joined this great beneficial organization? Are you one of the thousand pillars in our hospital for negroes?

Langford is known the fistic world over as the biggest little man in the heavyweight division, barring no one. Sam has met and defeated most of the white hopes, and not forgetting that he has tackled and whipped the greatest of black men. The Boston Tar Baby is one of the most remarkable fighting machines that ever slipped his hands into a set of five-ounce gloves; he knows every angle of the game, every inch of the squared circle, and holds the highest respect, not only of every fight-going fan, but of every ringman that follows the boxing game. Sam's career has been a sensational one. Starting as a featherweight, he has gradually outgrown the different classes till he finally was forced to tackle the heavyweights, when he himself never weighed over 182 pounds stripped for action. Langford is today the Black Ketchel, he is the one man that can draw a capacity house any time that he starts, for he always gives the fans a run for their money, and, besides, he is one of the best behaved ringmen of his race. Up to date Langford has traveled the world over, and he has appeared before royalty in every land that he has shown in, which is in itself a fair example of what a great master he must be, to be commanded to disport his fistic wares before some of Europe's greatest monarchs. To Joe Woodman belongs also a great deal of credit for the manner that he has been handled, and the Woodman-Langford combination is a hard one to beat. This has been proven time and again. In meeting Tom McMahon, it must be said that Langford isn't picking a soft customer for his next opponent, for McMahon is the youngest and most promising of white heavyweights. The Pittsburg Bearcat has met and defeated such me nas Jess Willard, Battling Levinsky, Kid Kenneth and others Willard, it will be remembered, is about to be matched with Jack Johnson, and the fact that McMahon shaded Willard in one of the three contests that he has fought this year shows plainly that Langford is liable to run into a snag, if the reports that have been sent out about Sam being on the toboggan are true. Uncle Tom McCarey is the man that once more is showing the colored man that he doesn't draw the colored line, and that he is fair to all mankind, for before election it was announced that Langford would box here November 10th with Tom McMahon, the best of the White Hopes, and there was some doubt in some quarters that such a match would ever be staged here. But now the match is a certainty and the men have been training hard for the bout, Langford training at Jack Doyle's Vernon camp and McMahon at Shannon's San Rafael camp with George Chip, winding up his training here at one of the local clubs. If Sam Langford is really and truly going back, there isn't a fighter in the game today that can find Sam's weak points better than this same Tom McMahon. The Langford - McMahon battle will be one of science, brains, brawn and ring generalship. Each of the men have had a world of experience, and a defeat means that they are out of the championship running. At the present writing it looks like either Harry Wills or Jess Willard will meet the winner here Thanksgiving Day. This is only an- THE LIFE OF JOHN A. BROWN Who meets Tom McMahon at the Vernon Arena Tuesday.

There is no doubt that this battle will draw a monster house. Willard is the likeliest looking of Uncle Tom has decided to have a scale of prices that will range as follows: Gallery, $1.00; reserved seats, $2 and $3; ringside seats at $5. Such a scale of prices should appeal to the sport-loving fans and will no doubt bring out one of the largest attendances that has with nessed a boxing show at Vernon in some time past. The preliminaries slated for Tuesday night will be run off as follows: Len Powers vs. Eddie Lol rain, lightweights, who will start the ball a-rolling in a four-round set-to; Benny Palmer and Vic Moran, two of the most promising of the near-great lightweights will box six rounds; while Frankie Conway and Johnny Arrozay, featherweight stars, will clash in a ten-round affair that should hold the strictest attention of fandom. The show will start at 8 o'clock sharp, with the main event getting under way by 9:30 p. m. Special car service will be on hand, leaving Seventh and Spring streets every minute after 6:30 p.m. George Blake will referee the Langford-McMahon match, while Harry Burns will handle the prelims.

LONDON, Oct. 29.—Come on over. Ready to sign at once for $30,000 and 50 per cent of the picture privilege. Want to sign before November 19.— Jack Johnson. NEW YORK, Oct. 29. —The above cablegram marks one more step in the staging of the battle for the world's heavyweight championship between Jack Johnson, the titleholder, and Jess Willard. We were in receipt of this important news this evening from Tom T. Jones. Thomas being an aqua intive member of the Jess Willard syndicate. Some steamship company will profit by this foregoing announcement for either Jones or Jack Curley will bid au revoir to these shores not lat-r than Tuesday, and try to break through the lines of foreign seouting ships to get Lil' Artha to sign and to seal the articles. JONES CAN TALK SOME When this is done the same performances of sidestepping scouting snips will be gone through. And in case of a holdup neither Jones nor Curley will worry, for individually or doubly they can out-talk any gallant captain that sails the blue seas. The battle which everybody hopes will bring about a shift in the crown will be staged at Juarez, Mexico, which is only a step from El Paso, but far enough from Uncle Sam to preserve "Mistah Johnsing" from doing a little stretch for our glorious country. BIG HOUSE EXPECTED. In all probability the scrap will be held either in January or February, which is only a minor point. All the Jess Willard syndicate de. sires is for Dil' Artha to sign, for the money to promote the match is all ready to be put up. There is no doubt that this battle will draw a monster house. Willard is the likeliest looking of our white hopes and is the only one around that can be given a chance to whip Johnson. The latter's appearance against Moran in Patis convinced the experts that saw the fiasco that the champion is ready to drop into the discard. So it is up to Jess to carry the white man's burden. MANUAL ARTS' COLORED TEAM HUMBLE POLY'S NINE In a very loose game last Monday the Polytechnic colored baseball team went down to defeat at the hands of the Manual Arts sluggers. The hard hitting Manual boys starred with their long drives, and ran away with the game on the long end of a 5 to 2 score. The batteries for Manual were Baker & Roberts; for Poly, Brown and McGrooster. Last Tuesday the Los Angeles Stars and the Pasadena All Stars clashed in a very exciting game of baseball at Exposition Park. The L. A. Stars ran over Pasadena with ease and won by a 20 to 9 score. The fans were afforded some real thrills by the long drives of Baker and ohnson and the sensational base running of Drew. The Pasadena boys played some very good ball, but lacked team work. The line-up for both teams was as follows: Pasadena | | Los Angeles Davis | c | Baker Morgan | p | Roberts J. Moore | 1st b | Johnson Perry | 2nd b | Bluett Carr | 3rd b | Young Bunch | s.s. | H.

[Written by May Boyden and read before the Dunbar Literary Society on Oct. 25, 1814.] Hygiene is the science of the preservation of health. There are many ways to preserve the health, but the seven most important ways are as follows: 1, Keep your teeth clean; 2, Eat moderately and chew your food thoroughly; 3, Breathe pure air whenever it is possible to do so; 4, Go to bed regularly at a reasonable hour; 5, Take proper exercise and hold yourself erect; 6, Learn to rest and to keep yourself calm; 7, Guard yourself as far as you can from disease germs. The first hygienic habit that we should form, that of keeping the teeth clean, is one of the most important, since the mouth cavity has been called the gateway of Life and the care of the mouth may well be called the gateway of health. In the German army the teeth and toothbrushes of the soldiers are inspected each morning as regularly as the guns are inspected. In the United States army a man is not accepted as a soldier unless his teeth are in good condition. Of 275,000 school children in New York City, it was shown that more than one-half of them had teeth that needed treatment, and in Boston and Cleveland dental inspection showed that from 95 to 97 per cent of the children had teeth that needed attention. Some of the most serious diseases are caused from unclean teeth, and among these is consumption. One of the first things to do in the treatment of a consumptive is to get the teeth in good condition, so that food will nourish the body and build up the strength. The decay of the teeth is caused by bacteria growing the food materials that stick to the teeth and lodge between them; clearly then the way to keep the teeth from decaying is to keep them clean and preserve one's health and they should be cleaned after every meal, since a single neglected tooth may cause the decay of many others. Second important habit for the preservation of health, is that of erting moderately and chewing your food thoroughly. People who make it a rule to chew every mouthful of food into a perfect paste find that their health is very greatly improved by doing so. Through chewing of food carries us far on the way to a good digestion, and a good digestion sets us well on the road to good health. Third habit, breathe pure air whenever it is possible to do so. Cato, a Roman philosopher, once said that he could kill himself at any time by holding his breath. Cato probably knew more about philosophy than he knew about physiology, for he was not correct in this statement. We can oefuse spoiled food and unclean water but the air that comes to us we must breathe, we can not refuse it. Nearly a thousand times an hour we take a fresh supply of air into our lungs, so we can see the necessity of breathing pure air always if possible. Fourth habit is that of going to bed regularly at a reasonable hour. The nerve system needs something that the rest of the body does not require, and that is sleep. Without sleep we can not remain in health. There is no truth in the idea that a healthy person can have too much sleep. Follow the old adage, "early to bed and early to rise makes a man wealthy, and healthy and wise." Fifth habit is to take proper exercise and hold yourself erect. Exercise makes the muscles strong, it quickens the flow of the blood, it improves digestion and it builds up the general health. Then the erect carriage of the body is also very important. A wise old teacher often said, "stand up and be a man." This is good advice for an erect carriage of the body, since erect carriage does much to make and keep one strong. It gives the heart and lungs room to do their work and it allows the blood to flow freely through all the body. No one who allows himself to stoop so that his lungs and heart are crowded together can be strong. One should stand up and be a man if he wishes to have a healthy body. Sixth habit. Learn to rest and keep yourself calm. Endeavor at all times to keep yourself calm and quiet, avoid fits of anger or great excitement and do not overdo at your work or your play. Learn to rest and you will have learned something that will do much toward keeping your nervous system in health. Seventh and last habit, guard yourself as far as you can from disease germs. We should build up our bodies ro that they will be os strong as possible to resist germs. Germs of some diseases get into the body through bites of insects. In a few cases they are breathed in through the nose, but the mouth is the great gateway by which germs enter the body, so we should be careful what we eat and drink, what we toqueh, for in many cases the germs are carried to the mouth by the hands. Many persons have not yet realized that it is germs and not dirt and disorder that cause disease. Therefore, when the question of improving the aeth咏 of a town is brought up, they begin to think of gathering up loose papers from the streets, of banishing pigs, and of hauling away the rubbish that has collected in back yards Matters like these have little to do with the health. The germs that attack pigs do not harm us and one could spend all his life among washes and old boxes without contracting diseases from them. It is pure water and milk, not flowers and closely cut grass, that save a town from typhoid fever. It is careful quarantining, not beautful pictures on schoolroom walls, that saves children from diphtheria and scarlet fever. Let us be neat and clean by all means, but let us remember that the home of disease germs is in the human body; that it is germs, and not dirt we must keep in mind when we would prevent disease. Annual Public Health Day. The doctors, dentists' ans Druggists' association have designated one day each year which they call Public Health Day. On this day each year there will be an exhibition, a lecture on some subject which concerns the citizens and the public health. The health of the community is of interest to every individual. Happiness and prosperity depend upon the health of the people. Friday November 20th has been designated this year as Public Health Day. At Wesley Chapel, Corner Eighth and San Julian streets, from 2 P. M., there will be a free exhibit in charge of one of our nurses, to which the public is invited. At 8 P. M. in the same building there will be an illustrated lecture on Tuberculosis, by Dr. W. C. Gordon, President of the Association. In addition to this lecture and exhibit there will be an interesting program furnished by the famous Wesley Choir, under the leadership of Prof. Howard. A cordial invitation is extended the public. No admission, no collection. Rev. R. E. Arrington will leave for Tucson, Arizona, next Tuesday, where he has been assigned to the pastorate of the A. M. E. church of that city. 10 Washing A Book C Trade We want you to come and LOVE American Cut out this with a purchase cery or meat m LOWEST POSSIBLE PRICES TRADING CHECKS FREE WITH EVERY PURCHASE Cut out this Co upon and get Ten Extra Checks with a purchase amounting to 25c or more in either grocery or meat market.

It is said that we all have our ups and downs. So far as California is concerned we are now having our downs. Now the election is over we would suggest that the members of the race who stand for progress, get together along those lines for the betterment of all concerned. We feel in no way discouraged over our stand for Republicanism, and without coaxing or pay in any manner, shape or form, we supported the Republican ticket in its entirety. And with the part that failed we were with also. We only buckle on our armor now for the next great contest. Well, in so far as California is concerned, the Eagle's rooster, which we had been coaching in our back lot, was taken sick, and we will not produce a sick rooster. But our other birds are crowing most lustily for the nation-wide Republican victory. Brave men and women who staked their interest and funds with the Prohibition party in its effort to make California dry, be not discouraged, for not to the swift is the battle, but to the true and the faithful. What seems failure will be victory. The fight by the party in its effort to save men and women from poverty, shame and misery is not lost. Victory is over yonder and Christ is captain of the battle. This was only the first stroke for "California Dry." On another page of this journal we have written concerning the standing and ability of E. Burton Ceruit, a man with whom we have had experience as an attorney, and we wish to state that we found in Lawyer Ceruti all those qualities that go to make a good law man. In his profession he is not only legal adviser, but a firm friend to members of his race who find their way to his offices for counsel and advice along many lines. We hope that the Negro population will soon learn to appreciate such members of the race as Lawyer Ceruti, and in this way help him on to success. STOOD FOR SOMETHING The Eagle at no time seeks to evade an issue and in the campaign just closed we marched right up to the firing line and poured volley after volley into the enemy, but by sheer force of numbers we were forced to retreat. We did so, but in order. They charged us time and again and on last Wednesday morning we were forced to capitulate, but we did --- so with our colors flying at the mast, and we are not interned, but we are biding our time and we believe in our cause so strongly that with the recruits we gather as we go we feel that our next grand charge will carry all before it and Democracy, Progressivism will fade away before us as the snow melts before the rays of the noonday sun. Woodley wins a close race in the third district for supervisor. Mr. Woodley appreciated the colored vote in his district and advertised in their papers. Sidney L. Briggs refused to advertise in the colored papers. Woodley wins; Briggs loses. See! LEADERSHIP Now the election is over it is a well known fact that before another voyage of the old ship is attempted, the barnacles must be cleaned off the ship or else she will run foul in the same manner as she has in the past. The colored people, however, will insist on a clean slate for another election. The selfish would-be leadership will no more be tolerated. It is broad and capable leadership that is wanted and they will not be content with any other kind. At the last hour even a selfish leadership, rather than patronize for their own people, rushed to the white union print shops to get out their pamphlets, and this is what we are asked to stand for in building a race. We could expect slights at gatherings controlled by selfish leaders, but we do not see how a racial organization that stand on the wall and holler help one another could go so far as they did in this instance. The Negro print shop, however, will last in all probability the longest. Republicans Stronger as Campaign Result Republicans Stronger as Campaign Result BY JOHN D. FREDERICKS If I had this campaign to go through again I would gladly do it. The results obtained have been worth the effort. It has not been a personal campaign, but one for the purpose of recalling the attention of the people to the principles of Republicanism, upon which the prosperity of the nation has been founded. The campaign began practically without a Republican organization of any kind in any county in the state. During the contest we have created a splendid and loyal Republican organization in every county and in the state at large. The contest has been waged almost without financial backing, and against an organization whose finances seemed unlimited. The campaign, so far as we are concerned, has been clean and wholesome, and no alliances, combinations or affiliations have been entered into. The Republican party of California is today essentially a people's party. Every dollar we have been able to collect has been from the small merchant and professional man, who had no interest in government except that it should be clean and efficient and re establish confidence, so essential to our business prosperity. No promises were made—no hysteria or demagogy indulged in. We are now strong, well organized and with stout hearts and cheerful hopes the great Republican organization in California will march on fulfilling its mission and hopefully waiting until the hour of need, when it will be found ready and able, as in the past, to again serve in the interests of humanity, progress and prosperity. In the meantime, let us keep sweet, in tune with progress and the best ideas of life and government Personally,the opportunity to meet and know the splendid and unsel fish men and women whom I have met all over this great state during the campaign is full recompense for the labor. I shall not attempt to thank them for their toil and sacrifices in this campaign. The The FREE LANCE has filled its mission for the present; in the campaign just closed we felt that there was a field for a paper to present the issues to our people unbridled by any permanent connection for the success of certain principles, we cut like a Free Lance everything which we thought hindered the progress of the race, we believe we served our mission well and desire to thank those who stood with us and gave us succor and support, should the exigencies ever require it we shall be on the scene again. So we have transferred the business of this paper to that great race journal the CALIFORN1A EAGLE, accepting a place on their staff where we shall in the future as in the future as in the things to boost Negro enterprise and to assist in so far as we can to serve the public through that medium. We fought and won our battle against Amendments No. 2 and 3, Johnson and Eshelman and other candidates whom we supported were successful at the polls, so we feel in our humble capacity that we have been of some good to the people concerned. And we therefore shall strive in our new and more pretentious field to continue to do what we can to boost legitimate enterprise and the continued progress of the Race. fight was theirs as well as mine. We were comrades in the struggle for what we believed to be for the best interests of our state. But take this opportunity to extend a comrade's greeting to, with injunction to stand fast, stand true. We were and are right. Personal honesty and patriotism and love of humanity are not the sole properties of any person, party, clique or clan, and the principles we stand for will triumph, for they are the only principles upon which this government can endure. The Republican party will play a great part in the immediate future of the state and nation in putting aside vague, unstable and dangerous taeories of government which, though new to our age, have worked the ruin of republics and democracies through all the ages of the past, and we will do our part in educating the people to hold fast to the principles of government upon which our nation was founded, and has flourished through all its splendid history. The Result. As we go to press the result, in so far as the local candidates in many instances are concerned, is uncertain, which prevents us from publishing a complete list of the successful candidates. Our advices from our correspondents throughout the State, also state the same conditions. Of course, in many instances the winners are known but at no place is the count complete. We, therefore, refrain from making any attempt to publish the winners in this issue. F. E. Woodley M. H. Who was re-elected Supervisor Editor Free Lance. PETER H. J. W.

We have always maintained the very best order and it is our intention to always preserve the same. The shooting that occurred last Sunday evening was a block and a half from our place. Up to date we have had very good order at the rink. At times we are visited by persons whose intention is to disturb the peace and infringe on the rights of others when and wherever they go. We wish to state to the public that this place is run for real, wholesome enjoyment for the young people.

Many people are being defrauded of their rights because of their ignorance of the law and it is for this reason that the California Eagle has retained a well known Los Angeles attorney to exit a "Legal Advice Column." Any question that a reader may desire to ask will be answered through our Legal Advice Column. No name or address will be disclosed. Each communication will be considered confidential. Have you a legal trouble? If so, state the facts, give your name and address, mail it to the California Eagle, and watch the next issue. Do not fear publicity. No one will know of your communication, except our legal adviser. Other questions have been asked but they arrived too late for this issue. They will be answered next week. A reader desires to know what he can do to a party in a distant state, who has collected a small amount of money for him, and appropriated it to his own use. The reader evidently refers to criminal proceedings only and desires to know whether he must go to the county where it happened to swear out a complaint: You must. Furthermore, 'you will have to stay there some time, as the accused must be confronted by the accuser at the trial.' A party asks what is necessary in order to get a divorce from her husband upon the grounds of extreme cruelty: Extreme cruelty is the infliction of grievous bodily injuries or grievous mental suffering, upon the other by one party of the marriage. Just what mental suffering is seems to be a little vague, and judges usually take into consideration the kind of life that the parties have lived, and the surroundings to which they have been accustomed.

[From Topeka Plaindealer.] Down in Richmond, Va., John Mitchell, Jr., is a banker and also owns and edits The Richmond Planet, one of the strongest journals ever conducted in the interest of the negro race. Mr. Mitchell is also a member of the American Bankers' Association, being the only man of his race in the organization. He has always been treated royally by the bankers, but when they met in his home city a few days ago there was a little misunderstanding" as he mildly terms it, and it took the bankers to set his Southern brothers right. The following from Mr. Mitchell's Richmond Planet will show the cussedness of a poor Southern white man or one of the cracker element who accidentally stumbled upon some weal h. The Planet, under the castion, "A Little Misunderstanding" says: "President John Mitchell, jr., entered the Jefferson Hotel last Sunday to register as a member of the American Bankers' Association. There were six white lady stenographers of this city there with a skilled manager in charge. He passed his engraved plate card to one of them. She seemed somewhat embarrassed and then she said: 'We are not registering people from the city, only visitors today.' The gentleman in charge picked up the card and hurriedly went to the rear of the enclosure. He returned and said pleasantly that it was all right. WAS EMBARRASSED "The lady stenographer was embarrassed and said that she had stated only what she had been instructed to state and that she was in no wise responsible. She then proceeded to register the colored bank president complying strictly with course of procedure. President Mitchell was told to take it to the other side in order to get the badge or button of the American Bankers' Association which entitles the holder to admittance into the meetings of the Association Here the young white gentlemen who had been faithfully working balked. ANOTHER OBJECTION. "They were unwilling to pass over the badge. The colored banker smilingly asked for Mr. Fitzwilson, the assistant secretary of the American Bankers' Association. Upon being told that he was at luncheon, he said that he would wait. When he came, he cordially greeted him. 'Mr. Fitzwilson,' said President Mitchell, "I wish you would straighten these young gentlemen out. They are doing good service, but they just don't understand my case.' 'Certainly' was the response. He walked to the desk and asked for the badge. It was given to him and he handed it to President Mitchell. A BANKER'S PROMISE. "This part,' said he 'comes under the American Bankers' Association, and the local committee has charge of their department. The colored banker thanked him He then went over to a local banker and asked him to take the matter up with the committee and thus avoid further annoyance. He promised he would do so. A few moments afterward, he was in conversation with a group of Richmond bankers. They spoke in low tone and no one was aware of what was going on as the matter had been so quietly and pleasantly taken up that the people in the hotel lobby were unaware of the occurrence. "The colored banker passed au On returning Tuesday morning to attend the sessions in the Audiforium of the Jefferson Hotel, every courteey was extended to him. The local committee met him just as he met them with a smile. The apparent friction had passed and the friendly feeling between the better class of colored people and the better class of white people was in evidence. A leading Richmond banker had also taken the matter up and on Thursday morning enquiries were made by a member of the local committee as to President Mitchell's health and environments. It was all that could be desired. THE PROPER SPIRIT. "He met many bankers from different parts of the country and those from the Southland were equally as cordial. This incident was a practical demonstration that an appeal made in the proper spirit to Southerners will bring its reward. There was no upstir, no ill feeling and the matter was adjusted while the hundreds of visitors and home people, were not cognizant of the occurrence. The progress of the colored people hereabouts is due primarily to just these kind of people and the fact is emphasized in a way that many Northerners cannot understand; they understand us and we understand them.

Arbaw seems to be in a class by himself when it comes to playing first base. This makes one defeat apiece for these teams. They will play again Sunday. The standing is as follows: P. W. L. P. Bumble Bees..... 5 4 1 750 Gechies Eacheis..... 5 3 2 740 All-Stars..... 2 1 1 500 Outlaws..... 1 0 1 000 "Baby Ruth." "Like the lily bells that blossom On the bowers of Eden fair, All their pretty loaves unfolding To the breeze that murmurs there, Like a jewel bright and sparkling From the peerless brow of truth, Like a birdling with the Autumn, Came your winsome Baby Ruth. "There are feelings deep and tender, There are joys you could not know Till a cherub in your household Bade the hidden fouatain flow. Now a love its smile reflecting From the Peaceful eye of truth, Like a radiant star is shining O'er your gentle Baby Ruth. "In a fancied dream I linger. As the evening time draws nigh, And I listen to the carol Of her mamma's lullaby, While her papa, grave and thoughtful, As in years of vanished youth. Lays his hands with fond caressling On the head of Baby Ruth. "By a holy consecration Tha will ne'er forgotten be, You have answered him who whispered 'Bring your little ones to me.' You have brought her, pure and lovely, To the way, the life, the truth, And his seal is on the forehead Of your precious Baby Ruth. "May you train her in the knowledge And the wisdom of the Lord. May yon teach her to be faithful, And obedient to his word. With the lamp whose beams are kindled At the throne of sacred truth, May you guide the coming future Of your darling Baby Ruh." EDwin Reed Successful Candidate for Public Administrator GEO. RAMSEY, CORRESPONDENT. SAN DIEGO LOCALS The White Mice Junior's Club gave a farewell dinner in honor of Curtis Miller, who departed for Oakland, California. Mrs. Gus Thompson, who prepared the dinner, deserves great credit for the way she put up the menu. We must admit that Mrs. Thompson is par excellence in cooking. The hay ride given by the White Mice Club was a grand success. Nothing but the best order prevailed, allthough reports got out to the contrary. Some knocking envious persons who were not invited thought they would start something. But I would like to say consider the sources from whence it came. The Magnolia Club will give a dinner Tuesday evening, Nov. 22nd, for the members and friends of the club. John Cloud tried to see just how much he could eat at the dinner party. Little Frank Ellis stayed by the roast pork constantly. Shy Banks eat so much that he couldn't rise to speak. Melyin White delivered a farewell address to Curtis Miller and then continued to put away the sweet potatoes. Walter Thompson certainly likes peas. Did you see the way he went after them? George Ramsey said he didn't care for pork. I guess he thought he was eating chicken. Miss Corona White said she didn't eat much. Is she right? Fee Ellis likes Pie. We don't mean she eat a whole one. Mami Young was in love and filled up that way. Louise Marshall was really a small eater. (She eat before she came.) Frank Cloud said a quarter saved is a quarter made. We all had a great time and enjoyed ourselves. Much credit is due to our own Frank Ellis, who did the shaping of stories and speeches and helped to make the program a success.

DONES Wilson was caught by Game Warden Webb Toms yesterday morning as he was placing the lobsters in hfs machine, which bore the mystic number 7-11. Henry Koch, a fisherman, was arrested at the same time for giving the lobsters to Wilson and also paid a fine of $10. The lobsters were turued over to the Helping Hand Home by Toms. The lobster season opened Sunday and the law prohibits the capture of crustaceans under nine inches or over thirteen rnd a half inches in size. I wish to state that Mr. Wilson has never owned an auto and has none now. Also that he is a gentleman of refinement, speaks the English language correctly, without the slightest accent of any kind. Mr. Wilson has lived with his family in San Diego for nearly a quarter of a century, is respected by all who know him, both white and black. He is a man past the half century mark, and this was his first appearance in a justice court. On Tuesday evening the following article appeared in the San Diego Sun. Please notice the difference in the articles: SMALL LOBSTERS SMALL LOBSTERS had given them to Mr. Wilson. On Tuesday morning the following article appeared in the San Diego Unfon: '7-11' AND '13' UNLUCKY NUMBERS FOR NEGRO. "I rm sure an unlucky nigger. I isn't genally superstitious, but, believe me, I're agoner sell my auto or get another number." So said Thomas Wilson, a gentleman of color, as he paid a $10 fine in the justice court yesterday or having in his possession thirteen lobsters under the legal size The first arrest to be made since the opening of the lobster season, Nov. 1, was made yesterday when Harry Koch and Tom Wilson were arrested on the bunkers wharf by Deputy Fish and Game Warden Webb Toms. They had a bag full of under-sized lobsters in their possession, he says. The law permits no lobsters to be caught under nine inches or over thirteen thirteen and a half inches in length. The men pleaded guilty and were fined $10 each. THESE HAVE MADE GOOD THE HOME OF THE HUNTINGTON MUSEUM --- INITIAL WORK MUSIC DEPARTMENT Instructors: Prof. H.

So we will lift our voices And wave our banners high, For victory in November And "California Dry!" --- (By Miss Birdie Sterling, Stockton. Friendship is the complete record on all subjects, human and divine, joined with mutual goodwill and affection. With the exception of wisdom nothing better than this has been given to man by the immortal Gods. There are people who give a glad hand to riches, or good health, or power and office, then there arr those who find the chief good in virtue, which if the parent and preserver of friendship. How can iife be worth living which is void of that repose which is to be found in the good will of a friend? What can be more delightful than to have some one to whom you can say everything with the same absolute confidence as if to yourself? Prosperity is robbed of half the value if you have no one to share your joy. Misfortunes would be harder to bear if there was no one to feel them more pressing than yourself. Other objects of ambition serve for your particular ends—riches for use—power for securing reverence—office for reputation—pleasure for enjoyment—health for freedom from pain and the full use of the functions of the body. But friendship embraces numberless advantages. Turn which way you please, you will find it at hand; It is everywhere; and yet never ov of place or unwelcome. This sort of friendship gives us hopes for the future and forbids weakness and despair. We often wonder whether it is weakness and want of money that makes friendship desirable. That is to say, is its object an exchange of good offices, so that each can give that in which he is strong and receive that in which he is weak? No, it should be better than that—it is both genuine and spontaneous. Friendship should come from a natural impulse rather than a wish for help; from an inclination of the heart, combined with an instinctive feeling of love rather than from a deliberate calculation of material advantage it confers. We should leave this for the first law of friendship that we should ask from friends, and do for friends, only what is good. We should not wait to be asked either; let there be ever an eager readiness and an absence of hesitation. Have courage to give advice with sincerity. In friendship, let the influence of friends who give good advice be superior to all others. Use plain-spoken terms and if the case demands it, with sharpness. It is not friendship that follows material advantage, but material "FRIENDSHIP." By Mrs. G. H. HOLLAND advantage follows friendship. advantage follows friendship. We will try now to make certain as to the limits of friendship. What is the boundary line? On this point we notice three opinions. First is that we should love our friends just as much as we love ourselves and no more; second, that our affection to them should exactly correspond and equal theirs to us; third, that a man should be valued at exactly the same rate as he values himself. The true rule is to take such care in the selection of our friends as never to enter upon a friendship with a man whom we could under any circumstances come to hate. When we are unlucky in our choice we should put up with it instead of allowing a breach to occur. The characters oo two friends should be stainless. There must be complete harmony of interests, purpose and aims, without exception. Something should be conceded to friendship, yet we must not be careless of our reputation Our friends' actions should not tend to lower our standing. Virtue both creates and preserves friendship. On it depends harmony of interest, permanence and fidelity. When virtue has reared her head and shown the light of her countenance, seen and recognized the same light in another, she gravitates towards it, and in her turn welcomes that which the other has to show; and from it springs up a flame which you may call love or friendship as you please. Love is just the cleaving to him whom you love without the prompting of need or any view to advantage, which later blossoms into a lasting friendship. Judge F. S. Forbes Who was Re-elected FIRST A.
