VOLUME 29
Sunday was a great day in the Grown City, when an immense throng of both races—men and women prominent in the civic, Religious and in the Commercial life of Pasadena, and the surrounding towns, gathered on the historic camp grounds at South Fair Oak's Avenue and East Bellevue Ave, which had been the scene of the great old-fashioned Holy Ghost and fire camp meeting under the leadership of that mighty man of God, the "Fighting Parson," Rev. Dr. J. Gordon McPherson. The ground breaking exercises began with a memorable address by his honor, A. L. Hamilton president of the City Commission, whose words of eloquence were cheered heartily by the great throng that had gathered for the exercises as his honor closed his brilliant address and presented to Miss Nellie Davis who is one of the warm supporters of the new work, the spade to turn the first shovel of earth, the applause was deafening. Dr. Joseph T. Hill, the polished and scholarly divine, responded to his honor in words of felicitousness that won the great audience his approval, as was evinced by the outburst of applues.
The exercises were continued by the reading of the Scripture lesson by Evangelist McPherson from the Book of Haggi, and Dr Hill preached the ground breaking sermon from the subject at the "Wells of Elim," in which he characterized the new gospel Tabernacle like unto a well in the desert where earth's pilgrims could get a drink from wells of everlasting life. The sermon was pronounced a masterpiece by all who heard it and Dr Hill was the recipient of many warm compliments for the able discourse that will ever live in the memory of those who were so fortunate as to hear its delivery. The Prayer of Consecration was offered by Rev. W. H. Tilman pastor of St. Paul Baptist church and also president of the Baptist Ministers' Federation of Southern California after which the ground was broken and the congregation joined in singing "Old Hundred" and Miss Davis the new Tabernacle benefactress, who made the first donation of $50 for the new taber-
HAS MADE AN ENVIABLE RECORD IN MASONIC AND RELIGIOUS CIRCLES
To the Editor of the California Eagle:
I wish space in your valuable paper to speak in reference to one who has rendered efficient and valuable service to the cause of Masonry in California, in the person of the Rev. R. H. Harbert, now serving his third term as Grand Lecturer under authority of the Most Worshipful Sovereign Grand Lodge, Free and Accepted Masons of California and its Masonic jurisdiction (of Prince Hall Masons), organized in this state in 1855. Rev. Harbert, who was stationed at Bethel A. M. E. church, San Francisco, during last year, has been transferred to the Colorado Conference and stationed at Pueblo, Colo. This move comes at a time when the jurisdiction can ill afford to lose him, his services have been of great benefit to our craft as a whole. Unlike many men of his calling and capabilities, he is kind and courteous and possessed of those rare qualities that few men can boast. His work as Grand Lecturer is of a very high order, both pleasing and instructive to the craft. He has filled the office so acceptably that it is always a joy to the brethren when it comes his time to pay them a visit. He has conducted his work with such dignity and forethought that he always commands the rapt attention and respect of the brethren. His memory of the rit-

nacle, turned the first shovel of earth, assisted by Mr. Damer Beauty, the architect. Among the other ministers present that took part in the ceremonies were: Rev. C. Sharenfelt, Rev. Robert Skinner and Rev. Luke Hammock, Editor and Mrs. J. B. Bass, of the California Eagle. The offering for the day was nearly $500, while hundreds of the best white and colored citizens, religious workers representing every creed and sect and public officials were present. One of the things that attracted the notice of the people was the conspicuous absence of the local clergy, even though they were inflicted. It is strange that men who pose as Christ's ministers who never lift a finger or utter a protest against the opening of a new theatre, or a saloon, would dare to stay away from the establishment of a new gospel life saving station. Dr. McPherson is widely known as a tireless worker, and with a most cosmopolitan audience of 500 both colored and white followers, and among them some of the most substantial people of the city of Pasadena. It is predicted that the work of Christ's Temple will become nation wide. As we go to press, the work on the new Tabernacle is going on and will be ready to hold the first services on the fourth Sunday, when corner stone and dedicatory ceremonies will mark the opening of the temple service. Our Dr. Joseph T. Hill will give a series of ten nights' Bible lectures dealing with fundamental Bible themes, a Great Volunteer Chorus of 100 voices will sing opening jubilee songs each of the ten evenings. Full announcement of the order of services for the dedication or opening week ceremonies will be made in the next issue of the Eagle. Rev. W. H. M. Dickerson will be the gospel solost and first assistant in the activities of the temple work, which will be very extensive, as Dr. McPherson is a divine healer. His services are in great demand among the sick and the suffering, calls for prayers coming from various parts of the country. Dr. McPherson is widely known as the Apostle of Humanity and has dedicated his life to suffering humanity everywhere.
nalof the order, his amiable disposition, his imitative way of demonstrating the underlying principles of our order, and his deep concern for the welfare of the craft have gained for him a very enviable reputation, which he has sustained by close attention to duty and a demonstration of his fitness for the work in which he is engaged. As the jurisdiction of Colorado will have him in their midst for an indefinite time, they may well congratulate themselves upon such an acquisition. While his energies will be exerted among them his membership will remain in California. We ask for him the co-operation of the brethren in his new home, feeling assured that they will profit by his coming, but hope that the day is not far distant when we shall again have him in our midst. Our prayers and best wishes are for his success in his new field of labor.
T. A. HARRIS,
Grand Master.
SHOWERS OF BLESSING AT
FIRST A. M. E. CHURCH
Rev. J. Logan Craw, pastor of the First A. M. E. church, preached a notable sermon on last Sunday morning. It was soul stirring and touched the hearts of all present, strong men and women wept, sinners arose from their seats, went forward confessing their sins and acknowledged Jesus Christ. There were sixteen who went forward, seven of whom were converts. It was a great meeting, a great sermon, and a great day in Zion.
San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA. OCTOBER 14, 1916
DR. B. F. RILEY, D. D. ON BOOKER T. WASHINGTON
Dr. Riley, the author of this important biography, has rendered very fine service in the cause of Negro advancement in past years. He had devoted a great real of unselfish labor and time to the improvement of the Negro. What he has done has been exceedingly helpful in enabling white people to understand the Negro, and in encouraging the Negro to realize his own possibilities. This "life" which he has written will, we believe, take a very important place in the literature of the Negro. We rejoice in its publication, and believe it will be found to be a contribution of incalculable value to the life, development and prosperity of the Negro and to prosperity of the Negro and to the enlightenment of all friends of the Negro race.
It required nearly twenty-five years of gigantic grapple with difficulty for Booker T. Washington to bring his race in America to the attention of the world. In obscure regions here and there about the South, entirely unobserved save in the localities in which they were, many colored men had gradually come into the possession of land cheapened in value as the result of the war, had gone so work, and were quietly and obscurely accumulating wealth, while others had established little industries of various kinds; these formed a nucleus of organization which became an engine of propulsion to the pioneers of race advance-
M.
Dr John Wilms Baer, who resigned the presidency of Occidental College last Wednesday, was a personal friend to our departed leader, Dr. Borker T. Washington, and it was because of that friendship the people of Southern California had the opportunity of meeting and hearing Dr. Washington just a little while before he died. The colored citizens appreciate Dr. Baer's love for their great advocate and hope for him a speedy recovery.
ment, and stirred others from their lethargy. These forces were working without concert of action, and unknown to each other, because they had no means of intercommunication, and it was this that Washington supplied at a time when public sentiment had become more conciliatory. By the combination of these two agencies of organization and conciliation the race was enabled to set forth on a new era.
Being able to exploit the achievements of his people under difficulty, he deepened sympathy into substantial aid, and the first line of racial barriers went down. Not till then was he able to enlist the substantial help so greatly needed. Tuskegee had become a common point of distribution of Negro force and influence. Its graduates were demonstrating in trades, agriculture, professions, schools, and in much else, that for which
the school stood, and these agencies combined with the numerous voluntary strides made in different regions furnished a basis not alone for race elevation, but for an appeal of enlistment of those who could do so, to aid in the work of uplifting. . . .
As the clearness of the motive of Dr. Washington became increasingly transparent with the evolution and practical demonstration of his plans, means came, but not without continued strain of effort on his part. To those without, it meant much when Dr. Washington had succeeded in winning the approbation of the people of the South. Not till he had established a substantial footing was he able to obtain a hearing at the tribunal of public opinion. He alone demonstrated the only method of effecting race adjustment. Nor did he, by any means, accomplish all that needs yet to be done, but he did succeed in dissolving the advanced lines of difficulty, without which nothing was possible. His individual wisdom and success brought the means of success in a way praised by all.
"Humiliation and Conquest"
His motto: "He that humbleth himself shall be exalted" was the key to his success. Great men and women, both white and colored, who had espoused their life to the Negro cause in declaring for their rights, demanding justice and denouncing the discrimination shown them, naturally caused resentment and aggressiveness against such laws. This self-assertion and contention for their equal rights before the law only increased the prejudice and animosity of the whites, and instead of bettering their condition, it was becoming worse every day.
His correspondence became prodigious. Whether in New York or at Tuskegee, he was daily inundated with letters, while at either end during his absence they woul daccumulate in vast heaps. Miscellaneous information was sought by members of both races, advice solicited by farmers, mechanics, bankers, merchants, and educators, and these always received respectful answers, and as promptly as possible, while he must at the same time be managing the affairs of his great school from which he received a daily report during his absence. He must all along be mindful not only for the present needs of the school, but must make due provision for its advancement as it was constantly expanding. He had a corps of trained and efficient helpers, but their functions were circumscribed, since he must be responsible for the things said and done. By reason of the conditions of which he was the creator, with respect to the guidance of the complicated affairs of his people, who were themselves hindered and hampered, his immediate future was always filled with difficulties to be solved.
The South was gradually returning to its own under new conditions, and he would have the colored race become one of the chief factors in the progress made, and thereby become established on a basis, the worth of which could not be questioned. In other words, he wishes his race to be identified with the rehabilitation of the South, that the Negro might ever afterward become an important part of the section. To him it was a golden opportunity for the Negro race, and one that it could not afford to slight to remain in the South. As he viewed it, the Negro could thus establish for all time a base of worth, whence could be drawn supplies. In a sphere like this the Negro was without competition. Should he fail, the foreigner would be imported, and the Negro would be jostled aside in his helplessness. The colored man could be educated, and should be, but alongside his mental training he would have him an industrial factor; for, as he reasoned, what use would he have for an education entirely classical, or literary, if he had only this? Washington would have the Negro possessed of a force indispensable and always in demand. This would make him independent, while without it, he would be the most dependent of men no matter what his men-
Crooks, Notorious Law Breakers Join Forces to Dethrone Colored Officers.
The hearing of the charges against the two Colored officers, White and Broadway, for accepting bribes, drew capacity audiences this week at the rooms of the Police Commission at the City Hall. The prosecutors of the accused officers played their ace in the hole, by lining up the Chinese gamblers of the city, who claimed that they too for the privilege of playing their strong arm lotteries, had paid tribute to these officers.
And after this galaxy of Chinese crooks, gamblers and short arm men, the charges proper which had been made by McAllister and Saumers were testified to by these two men. They testified that they had paid these officers $20 per month for protection, and made each of them a present of a turkey and a box of cigars for a Christmas present, all for protection at their hands and other witnesses were heard in corroboration of the testimony of Sanders and McAllister. The complainants have rested their case and the trial has been set over until next Thursday, at which time the defense will have their inning, and it is to be hoped that the officers will make a defense that will convince the forces that stand law, order and civic righteousness of their innocence in this affair.
The Eagle believes in hewing to the line, and if the officers are guilty of extortion, we ask no quarter, but we verily believe that the Commission will be eminently fair in the premises and give to all
tal equipment might be. If there were denials of the rights of the colored race, of justice, protection, security of property, and political privileges, even while this was being demonstrated, what would be the condition of the man of color if his ability was confined to his mind? On the other hand, as the worth of the race came more and more to be recognized, there would come about consideration and goodwill, respect and neighborhood, and an identity of interest of both races, that would enable the colored man to win in the long run. So thoroughly was he possessed of this idea that he declined to abandon it to the close of his life. Others of his race did not acquiesce in this view, and insisted that it placed the Negro in a menial attitude; but while he had a practical demonstration of his view, there was left to others no more than theory. In the upward movement of the race, despite the obstructions which still in part remain, the public must decide how nearly his conception has been equaled, and how far his course and counsels have been vindicated. From "The Scrap Book," by J. D. Reynolds.
BIG PARADE AND MASS MEETING
There will be a big parade and mass meeting Tuesday night at Tabernacle Baptist Church. Hon. S.W. Odell, chairman of the California Dry Federation and Mrs. Frank Wheeler head of the Woman's Division in this connection, will be speakers, as well as many prominent race men and women. Little Baby Billbrew will sing—"Papa is Drinking Again."
Rosetta Temple No. 10 held reception for their delegates to the Grand Temple in Oakland, including visitors were Mrs. S. Shores, S. G. P.; Mr. M. T. White, S. G. S.; Mrs. Anglin, G. A. S., and other officers. Some beautiful presents were given the delegates by the members. The Princess presented the S. G. Princess, Mrs. Shores, with a beautiful bouquet of flowers. Mrs.

the consideration due them. In other words they will give both the cinematic and the officers a SQUARE DEAL.
They will consider the fact that the testimony against the officers is all by persistent and confessed law breakers. For instance, the Chinese gamblers and lottery sharks, that have brazenly carried on their nefarious games and defied the law, when they are run to the earth, they turn on their Nemisis in the person of officers Brody and White. These officers have been holy terrorists to law breakers of all classes, their records for arrests for gambling, disorderly houses and all sorts of vice, we are told, is prolific indeed. These Chinese renegades are the ones that have been selected to unhouse these officers. The question is, will they succeed? We would think it a sad commentary on law and order when a palatable frametup, such as this seems to be would prevail and the cry of "Crucify them" by confirmed law breakers would lie. There is no sentiment to shield anybody who breaks the law, be he a crap shooter or an officer with his mitt out, but there is a strong sentiment for a square deal for the men who really stand for the enforcement of law, and it is well known to what length law-breakers will go to get even with those who would dare to interiere with their operations.
So we trust that in this case that justice will prevail to the utmost.
Shores presented Mrs. Fingers a lovely bouquet. It was also a very enjoyable affair.

The Editor of California Eagle: Los Angeles, Calif. Dear Sir:
Doubtless you have noticed the fact that an organisation has been formed in Claremont and vicinity called the Ku Klux Klan for protection against the Hindu and other Orientals. It would be well for the Negro to watch this organization, as there is a possibility that this organization might turn its attention to the Negro some time in the future. Such an organization is a result of the showing of Thomas Dixon's "Clansman" in Los Angeles and other California towns.

Rev. J. C. Anderson, Pastor
The pastor has returned from the Conference at Douglas, Ariz. and reports a very successful session of the same.
The pastor filled the pulpit at both services on Sunday and preached to two attentive and appreciative congregations.
This Church boasts of one of the best Choirs in the city and the music was up to the same high standard.
A large and enthusiastic meeting of the Missionary Society was held in the Pastor's study on Monday afternoon, and the ladies pledged themselves to do more for Missions this year than ever before.
The Church is planning to make a great many improvements to the interior of the church, this year, by putting in pews and rearranging the pulpit and altar.
Services at this church are always spiritual and helpful and the public is invited to attend.
CHRISTIAN CHURCH
Last Sunday Bro. Latouche filled the pulpit both morning and evening. The morning text was taken from the 14th chapter of Luke and the 7th verse. The evening subject was "The Fishermen," taken from the same book. Both sermons were instructive and full of the truth.
Next Sunday afternoon at 3 o'clock the Sunday School will give a surprise for its children, in connection with a reception to Mr. and Mrs. Thompeon who are leaving the city soon. The public is invited.
THE PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST
(Odd Fellows' Hall, Cor. Eighth and Wall Sts.)
Rev. N. P. Gregga, Pastor.
Glorious services were held at this Church last Sunday. Pastor Greggs occupied his pulpit and delivered two wonderful and effective sermons. Numbered with the accessions to membership were two converts. The choir again featured with excellent music. Many new voices have been recently added and the choir now has the greatest collection of star singers to be found in any choir in the west. Good pictures of the proposed church building are being sold at 10 cents each.
Members and friends of the church are indeed glad to know that Mrs Greggs, the zealous wife of the pastor, who has been very ill is much improved.

Last Sunday, the anniversary of the Pastor's service here, was characterized by three splendid services.
The pastor, officers and members were delighted at the large crowd of visitors who worshipped with us at the 3 o'clock service.
Next Sunday the pastor will occupy the pulpit at the morning service. At the evening service there will be an illustrated sermon on "Ten Surprising Events to Quickly Follow the Big War" by Evangelist Cuddy, of Washington. D. C. Questions answered at the close of the sermon. Hear this great sermon Sunday evening at 7:30.
Mrs. Cora'Dennis, 913 1-2 East 23rd St., and Mrs. Mary Byaas, 1338 34th St., are on the sick list this week. We hope these two faithful workers in our church will soon be restored to health to be again among their many friends.

(Elighth and Towne Ava.)
Sunday was the scene of a real Pentecostal shower at First Church The pastor delivered two sermons Sixteen souls united with the Church, seven of whom were converts. All were young men and women and folks in the prime of life, such as are found in the foremost homes of the citizenry of Los Angeles. The entire congregation was swept into tears of joy at this spiritual and intelligent demonstration of the presence of the Holy Ghost. Others will come to Christ and this church will move on. Everybody is welcome to attend our services.
The First Quarterly meeting of this new Conference year will be held Sunday. Presiding Elder, Rev. J H. Wilson, will be in charge. The communion of the Lord's Supper will be administered at both the morning and evening services. The evening service will begin at 7:30 o'clock at all times from now on during the winter season. Quarterly Conference Tuesday night. Oct. 17.
"The War of the Roses" is the caption that shall inspire and encourage the entire membership and all friends of First Church to rally in the raising of funds to pay all the money we can this Conference year on our mortgage debt. The slogan is "Get out of debt and stay out of debt." The pastor is commander in chief, and General Alice Lucky is at the head of the "Red Rose Regiment", while General Lillian J. Craw is at the head of the "White Rose Regiment" The fight is on. The first skirmish will take place on Sunday, Dec. 10. The decisive battle will take place on Easter Sunday, 1917, when the losing General will be buried under the roses. Come to Class meeting every Thursday night and get the details of this "war" that is raging to pay all we can this Conference year on our mortgage debt of $2,660.00.
The funeral services of Mr. Nathan J Smith, Mr. Robert Glacoe and Mr. John Sanders were each conducted by the pastor in one week's time. The Rev. D. R. Jones, pastor of our church in Salt Lake City, Utah, assisted at the services of Brother Sanders. Bro. Sanders was one of Dr. Jones' trustees when he pastored our church in this city more than twenty years ago.
Sunday, Oct. 22, will be Trustee Day again. The pastor gives away that the members who were not ready to respond in the little $2 effort of last Sunday might have the opportunity of helping this department at this time. Everybody will be asked to assist in the free will offering.
Remember that our services begin at 11 o'clock sharp each Sabbath morning, and 7:30 p. m. each Sabbath evening. Please come on time so you can get the benefit of the entire worship. Everybody welcome.
RIVERSIDE
Last Sunday's services were but a continuation of the excellent worship observed each Lord's Day at the Second Baptist Church. The Pastor preached at both services. The morning service was the second series on the Lord's prayer "Thy Kingdom come, thy will be done in earth as it is in heaven." The congregation sat with wrapped attention as the meaning of this part of the prayer was unfolded to them. Next Sunday will be Membership Rally Day. All members are expected to be present.
Mrs. S. H. Ggeer, Superintendent of the Woman's Day Nursery, together with several other ladies from Los Angeles were welcome visitors to Riverside last Sunday. They attended the services at the Second Baptist Church.

"A Delusion and a Snare"
The Anti-Saloon League is making a deliberate attempt to deceive the people of the State by offering the second amendment as an "Anti-Saloon Measure." The Sacramento "Bee" on February 15, last, said of this:
It is a measure as obnoxious as prohibition itself.
Under an alias and behind a mask it presents
prohibition in the garb of an anti-saloon
measure.
Under it no hotel, restaurant or cafe could
serve California wine with meals.
No commercial body, fraternal organization,
or individual giving a public banquet at a place
of public resort could offer wine to guests.
No club could serve wine to its members.
No Summer resort could offer or give away
wine to its patrons.
No grocery store or family liquor store
could sell wine in sealed packages not to be
consumed on the premises.
* * * * * *
The thing is one of the most iniquitous
offenses against personal liberty and the sacredness
of individual rights ever thought of anywhere.
It is a fraud when it masquerades under the
alias of "an anti-saloon proposition."
And it is an imposition throughout upon the voter, because it does not stand out in the sunlight under its true colors.

THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE
Suffragist Leader Explains Opposition to Woodrow Wilson by Women Voters.
All suffrage states will be visited in the final weeks of the campaign by a flying squadron of Woman's party speakers. They are to tell why they are opposing president Wilson.
California will hear Helen Todd, Inez Milholland Boisevain, Maude Younger, Mrs. Sarah Bard Field, Ida Finnev Mackrille, Hazel Huntins, and Emily Perry.
Mrs. Boisevaid, one of the most remarkable figures of the suffragist movement, will speak in the Palace Hotel on the evening of October 31. Miss Todd will speak at the St. Francis, October 12. Miss Dorris Stevens, campaign manager, has issued a resume of the reasons why women should vote against Woodrow Wilson as follows:-
President Wilson went to Philadelphia, May 10, 1915, to welcome to citizenship 4,000 naturalized aliens, but refused to see, for five minutes, a deputation of women, the best in Philadelphia. He has refused to recommend to Congress favourable action on the amendment. he has refused to ask Congressional committees, which obstructed the amendment, to take action; he has declared his personal opposition upon various trivial precepts; he has influenced opinion in his party against it; he drafted the States' rights plank on woman suffrage in the Democratic platform, and declared that the platform prevented him from taking action; he has tried to defend his attitude on suffrage in many contradictory statements; he has greatly enlarged the Federal power, and as one objection to suffrage has been dislodged from his mind, has advanced a new reason.
NOTICE
For the benefit of the ministers who were not at the Alliance last Tuesday, we will state that action was taken requesting that each of the ministers preach a temperance sermon on the third Sunday of the month, and that each of the churches appoint a committee on Parade Five or six thousand of our people are expected to participate in the great People's Temperance parade on Nov. 4th. The committee is working up a great mass meeting, the time and place to be announced later.

Miss J. H. Shorta, who has been visiting her sister Mrs. Celia Brookins at 724 East 25th Street, returns to Denver after a delightful stay in sunny California. Miss Shorta wishes to extend thanks to her many friends and acquaintances for the numerous informal affairs given in her honor, and invites her many hospitable friends to her Colorado home. Among the most charming events enjoyed by Miss Shorta, was a trip to Catalina, on invitation from Mr. and Mrs. Wicks; an automobile tour by Dr. and Mrs. Gordon over the Orange Empire, through Riverside, San Bernardino, Redlands, and Similey Heights.
PAGEANT OF THE FLOWERS
The prettiest affair of the season was the Flower Pageant at the 1st A. M. F. Church last Tuesday evening, arranged by Miss Mamia V. Cunningham. 12 different kinds of flowers represented by 60 pretty girls in the most gorgeous of costumes, designed by Miss Hazel Brown. The music by Miss Lottie Bolds was of the very best. The artistic poses and pantomime by Mrs. Carrie Hunter Lewis were greatly enjoyed. Mme. L. Jeter Davis favored the audience with one of her choice readings which was highly appreciated.
A Secret Exposed
After testing out different lines of toilet articles, Miss Rosa L. Sampson quickly decided that Fletcher's Toilet Preparations were the best on the market. Miss Sampson now carries the complete Fletcher line and desires to show her customers wonderful results are obtained by "Fletcherizing your complexion". Fletcher's Bleach paste cleans and whitens the complexion, Fletcher's Cream softens the skin, Fletcher's Face Powder On, so sweet, protects the skin. Call and see Miss Sampson.
A SURPRISE PARTY
On Tuesday evening, Oct. 10, a surprise party was given complimentary to Rev. and Mrs. A. Lively of 110 East 32nd street by the members of the New Hope Baptist church under the leadership of Mrs. R Hays. The members met in a body and marched upon the pastor and his is milly singing "Nearer My God to Thee." Attracted by the sweet melody the door was opened and in marched the assemblage and showered upon the family all kinds of groceries and delicate things of the season. More than thirty persons participated in the party, which proved to be a very delightful affair, and highly appreciative of the high esteem in which Rev. A. Lively and family is hold in the estimation of his followers.

PAGE EIGHT
ATTY. H. E. MacBETH WINS
SUIT
A few months ago the California Eagle published an account of one Mrs. Johnson (Colored) who had rented a house on East 16th street and who, after it had been discovered that she was Colored was thrust out on the side walk at a late hour in the evening with her personal effects to find a house or remain in the open all night.
Realizing that she was helpless, and alone, Mrs. Johnson appealed to the California Eagle for assistance. A body of twelve Colored women were quickly, but quietly organized, and marched to the scene with the intention of putting Mrs. Johnson's things back in the house, but to the astonishment of the women the house was securely nailed from, within, and without. These brave Negro women caucaused for a few minutes unlike the blood thirsty mobs of the South in that they were calm and thoughtful; then decided that they would be taking the law in their own ha'ands if they broke into the home. It was suggested that the University Station be reached and a policeman called to the scene which was quickly accomplished. Said policeman directed that they get in touch with the District Attorney's office, which was done and a watchman was sent out to take charge of the things until the matter could be settled.
The white owners of the house would not make any concession unless Mrs. Johnson could find some remedy to make herself white.
The case was turned over to Atty. H. E. Macbeth, who fought it cleverly and carefully in the interest of Mrs. Johnson and last Tuesday in the Justice Court won the decision in her favor.
WILL BE AN OLD TIME TORCH LIGHT PROCESSION
Arrangements are now being made for an old time Republican torchlight procession on the evening of November 4th, through the down town business districts of the city.
Invitations have been extended to all of the city and county clubs to participate, creating an enthusiasm for Hughes and Fairbanks and the entire Republican ticket. All of the colored clubs have signified their intention of turning out in full force on this occasion.
Our make up of church news in our last issue slipped, as a result the church news of several different churches was badly mixed, for all of which we offer our sincere regrets and hope the same will not happen again.
Mrs. Lillian Fowler of Hollywood has returned home after a three months visit with relatives and friends in the East. Her trip was a continuous round of pleasure—from Pittsburg, Pa., then Linchburg, to Ronoak and Bullaski, Va., on to Columbus, Ohio, Chicago, Ill.; Salt Lake City, Utah. And on arriving home, not only did she $^2$find a hearty welcome from husband and friends, but a most pleasant surprise in the way of the home having been remodeled while she was away.
LYONS FOR THE ASSEMBLY
The many friends of Harry Lyons, the regular Republican nominee for Assemblyman, 64th district, are rallying to his support in a most encouraging manner. Mr. Lyons is an attorney of high standing and will co-operate energetically with his supporters to insure his election.
ROBERT W. McDONALD FOR
JUDGE OF THE SUPERI-
OR COURT
Judge Robert W. McDonald of Pasadena has opened headquarters in this city at the California building and from now on will make an aggressive campaign which no doubt will land him a winner at the polls on Nov. 7. Judge McDonald is a man who is well qualified in every way for this exalted position. His rich and varied experience as Justice of Peace and Police Judge and his broad and liberal interpretation of human rights eminently quality him for this position. These facts apparent with the legions of citizens rallying to his support will place him without doubt as one of the three winners on Nov. 7th, join the mighty army of boosters for the elevation of one of the best and grandest men of California to the Superior bench.
RANDALL FOR CONGRESS
C. H. Randall is the Republican nominee for Congress in the Ninth Congressional district, and from his record in the last Con-
Five Nights Bazar, for Benefit of Mt. Olive Baptist Church, 3022 E.1st St., given at
Near Evergreen. Take Brooklyn car to Evergreen, walk south half block to hall. Take East First St. car to Evergreen, walk two blocks north to the hall
gress we can bespeak for him a hearty support. His record in Congress is strong for protection of American industries, which is the cardinal principle of Republicanism, and in the last session of the lower house when Juvenile Court bill for the District of Columbia was up for consideration and when the Segregation Amendment of the Southern fire-eater Clarke of Florida was offered. Congressman Randall was one of the forces that voted against it and all along the line he has been for the people and we opine that such a man is at all times worthy of the strong support of all the people.
THOUGHTS WISE AND
OTHERWISE
By Hilberte L. Rozier
The White Sox—no, they lost, Sunday, 5 to 2. The S. P. Railway was the—well, the winner. While we do not mean to be too optimistic, you'll have to admit that they're some lucky.
George Carr. White Sox first baseman, is what we might call an all-star ball player. Carr hits like Tris Speaker; fields like "Stuffy" McInnis, and despite the fact that he tips the beam around the 200-mark, he runs bases like Ty Cobb. Again we say, he's some ball player.
"Blue" Washington, besides being the Walter Johnson of the Semi-Pros, is the fun-maker for the White Sox team. "Blue," it is said, keeps the team in good spirits while traveling, and thereby enables them to win after a long tiresome trip.
Everybody, that is, almost everybody is calling for a game between Echo playgrounds and the White Sox. While we have no doubts as to what the outcome of a game between these two teams would be, we would like to see them "hook up" for a little nine round battle, just for the novelty, don't you know.
THE GREATEST IN THE EYES OF THE WORLD

All persons interested in clean morals and the biggest campaign for the uplift of mankind are urged to hear this debate picturing both sides by Hall and Summers.
RAILROAD NEWS
Everybody who has ever traveled much in the United States or Canada must have noticed the peculiar names, often poetic and

fanciful, which the Pulman chair, sleeping and dining cars bear. Occasionally these names are the same as those of localities through which the cars' routes take them, but in many cases there seems not the lightest connection between the names and anything so prosaic as railroad travel. In fact, the efficient minded person is inclined to think that it would be much more sensible to designate the cars by numbers or letters instead of these high-sounding, romantic names.
Although most of us are not old enough to remember back that far, there was a time when Pullman cars were all designated by numbers. But that was previous to the year 1864, when their number and usefulness were extremely limited. Late in 1864, when the prospect of an early end to the Civil War that was raging made the officials of the sleeping car companies look for a large increase in business, they decided to designate all their cars by names instead of by numbers, and this custom has been followed ever since. The change was made because the officials believed that numbers, while suitable for recording purposes, were without individuality and could not convey the appropriate distinctiveness the company wished to associate with its cars.
Today, when there are over seven thousand of these cars in operation and new ones are constantly being built, the task of finding names for them without duplicating those already in use is no easy one. Most of the names are taken from one of the following sources: history, mythology, foreign countries, states, cities, lakes and rivers. When a railroad company desires, cars are named after towns along their path. The christening of a Pullman car is a serious matter. Before a new car is given the name which it will bear until it is sent to the scrap heap, a great many names are considered.
The company endeavors, so far as possible, to select for its cars names of definite origin, significance and euphony. It tries to avoid manufactured names and those that are difficult to pronounce. A name that is unusual and not widely known is always looked upon with favor.
