California Boy Writes From France COMPANY "A" 815TH PIONEER INFANTRY Romagne Mouse, France June 15, 1919 My dear Brother Bass: It has been some time since I wrote you, and now that I have seen "Gay Paree." I cannot subdue the desire to write you about it. I was usually busy here in the office on the morning, I was to leave, but thanks to my orderly, he had by things all ready and I got away on the seeded time. Sergt. Alonzo Mansfield of the personnel office and I left Dun-sur-Meuse at 4.30 p.m., sharing a first class compartment with three French first Lieutenants, who rode as far as Verdun with us, and as usual they, were as amiable as could be, all three gave me their addresses and asked me for mine in return, as they said they intended visiting America at some time, and would deem it a pleasure to visit me. Nice of them, I think. We arrived at Paris Sunday morning at 7 p. m., after an all night's ride on a crowded train, as there were quite a number of people going to Paris over Sunday. And now Mr. Bans, let me tell you this, when you get off at the station in that beautiful city, you can see from the very attitude of the people, "DEMOCRACY" written in huge capital letters. In other words, you are no longer a Negro, you are to them, a Frenchman. Sgt. Mansfield and I, together with Dr. Blaine Ross, a young dentist from Virginia, and formerly with the 92nd Division, all taken an apartment at Hotel de Prima, and then proceeded to "do" the city. They went motoring, while I went to mass at Notre Dame Cathedral, an event that will always be a coveted pleasure. The Archbishop of Paris administered, and all this gorgeous ceremony, together with the wonderful voices of the altar boys, likewise the thundering away of two great pipe organs, dating from the seventeenth century, is something bevoed description. The California Eagie Here, also I saw a Negro prelate and five other Negro priests. During the ceremony, I went up to the second balcony and took down on the ceremony and it was indeed beautiful. The construction of this world renowned cathedral, as you no doubt remember, was started under the reign of Louis VII. in about 1163, the first stone having been placed by Pope Alexander III. From then on its construction continued under different kings and papal potentates, until its final consecration by Archbishop Darboy. I think it was, of Paris. The structure is as beautiful as it is collossal. Here, in 1431, was the coronation of Henry VI of England as King of France; the beginning of the revision of Joan d'Are's trial in 1453; the wedding of François I with Marie Stuart in 1555; the coronation of Napoleon I in 1804; and the wedding of Napoleon III in 1853. The sensation that one feels when standing in such famous, historical places is indeed absorbing. Then from the Arc de Triomphe, built by Napoleon I in commemoration of his victories, you can see most all of Paris, a beautiful city, whose great buildings bespeak of ancient, medieval, and modern architecture. This Aren sits at the entrance of the Avenida des Champs Elysees, the aristocratic section of Paris. On it are carved all of the victories of Napoleon together with the names of his officers, is also wonderful. In this palace was the nuculeus of a thousand intrigues; a place of moral degeneracy and debauchery that found its ending only in the French Revolution: the place where Richieun ruled France with an iron hand; where Catherine de Medic persuaded her son to sign the decree that made the streets of Paris run red with the blood of thousands of Hugenots; where Marie Antoinette sacrificed her life to save those of her two children; the place from which a mad mob led Louis XVI to the guillitine. In some of the rooms, the royal blood of some of the Kings of France still stain the marble floors. However the paintings in this palace are masterpieces to the nth power, and the surrounding gardens are beautiful beyond degree. Tower Eiffel. The Tomb of Napoleon in the Invalides. The Museum of the Louvre. the Pantheon. the Metropolitan Opera House. Eglise de Sacre-Coeur. the Catacombs and many other interesting signs are indeed a great source of pleasure to we people of the Western Hemisphere. And now about thirteen of Paris. As I have stated above, you are just a Frenchman, they know no difference, from the most aristocratic Parisian to the shop girls in the stores. One evening we were in a big cafe, and just three tables from us sat a dignified Paron with his wife and daughter. He had a large monacle screwed in his eye, and I noticed that he and his wife kept speaking of us, but I was too far away to hear what they were saying. Finally catching his eye. I saluted him. He boozed, raised his glass, and drank to us, while his wife and daughter looked on and smiled. Leaving there we went to "Tabary's," the most fashionable vabaret in Patia, and one of the largest in Europe. Here an incident occurred that reminded me somewhat of the States. In our party were two very beautiful French mademoiselles, a French civilian, Sgt. Mansfield and myself. As we entered the door a white buck private soldier said to us, "What in the h—do you fellows want here!" Well, when I got through jelling him just what I wanted in there, he said no more, I can assure you. Later, however, he came over to our box and told us he would give us just thirty minutes to get out of there. Well, if Sgt. Mansfield had just let me alone, they would have taken him out on stretchers, "trot sweet." Well when he saw that the entire assemble was glaring at him with mingled disgust and hatred, and as our French friend had summoned the house gardener, he San Diego, San Francisco and Oakland THE OLDEST LARGEST thought it best to "partir." So we had a glorious time, and French Counts and Lords all smiled upon us in pleasure, plainly showing those "pocks" (as we call the white soldiers) that this was their country and that we and not they were nearest their hearts. This was the only instance where there was any ocular demonstration of the intense jealousy that the white soldier has for the Negro soldier on leave in Paris. Of course they would glare at us when they saw us motoring or walking on the street with the French girls, especially when the girls would show their wealth of affection for the colored soldier. I enjoyed tipping the pretty little maid who cleaned up our apartment at the hotel, for whenever I would tip her, she would pout up in your face so sweetly and say, "Vous no voulez pas me embrasser!" Then I would say, "Ah, oui, oui, j'ai oublie, vous-estes une vraie poupee" and lifting her up like a great big doll. I would give her what she had asked for. Some life. I tell you, Mr. Bass. I would rather be in Paris on the Bouvelard des Itallienes with just five francs, than to be in New York on Broadway with fifty thousand dollars. Why? Well, in Paris I can go anywhere. I have money to go, while in New York I can only stand outside and admire the style of architecture. Nest-ce Pas? We also met several American Negroes who had lived in Paris for some time. They were all wealthy, elegantly dressed and well contented. One of them had lived in Paris for the past fifteen years. He had a luxurious bachelor apartment, and also a big limoine. There are also three Negro Frenchmen in the Chamber of Deputies. The daughter of one of them is married to a former Lieutenant out of the 23rd Division. The French people are well aware of the discrimination practiced against our people in the States, and it only makes them prefer us all the more in every respect. We lett Paris Thursday morning at 11:45, occupying a first class compartment in company with Mrs. Laura Jean Williams of Brooklyn, N. E., and Miss Florence Lee Thomas of Cleveland, Ohio, two lovely colored Y. M. C. A. workers. They rode as far as Chateau-Thierry with us, and their presence was indeed a luxury. On our return to Romagne Meuse, we visited Nancy, Bar-laDuc, Toul, Challons, Commerce, and Verdun. At Nancy I strolled through one of the most beautiful parks in the world. It was founded by Duc Stanislaus in the 12th century, who attempted to grow enough foliage and flowers in it to supply the entire province of Alsace Lorraine. Here, also, an Annual Carnival was going on and we had worlds of fun indeed. At Verdun we went through the ford famous underground citadel, a regular underground modern city large enough to accommodate 50,000 people. Here the crown prince of Germany resided while the Germans were occupying the Verdun Sector. But the most pleasing incident of any whole trip happened on the way from Challons to Naoncy. We were occupying the compartment next to the one occupied by a French General. He passed our compartment several times and on one occasion, smiled in on us. Well, his smile was so inviting until after a while summoned up courage enough to go in and speak to him. Eentering his luxurious compartment I came up to attention and saluted him. He returned my salute, and said in musical French, "Que desiriez-vous?" I said to him, "Je vous demande pardon, mon General, maïs, je voudrais parles avec vous pour un moment, je vous prise." He smiled and said, "Certainment, avec plaisir. Asseyez-vous ici." So I sat down beside him and we had a most interesting chat for some moments. Finally he said, "Depuis il trove vous parles bien Fr. n'est, je voudrais parles avec vous en Anglais," to which I answered, "Le paisir eur pour moi." Relaxation easily into English, he spoke at length of his career in Louisiana where he was in command of the Allied forces during the whole of the war. Upon leaving him I pulled out my cigarette case and offered him a cigarette. Then came the shocking but almost pleasing incident. The man who had crushed the Ottoman Empire in his hand, and who, after a lapse of many centuries, once more gave to Christendom the Holy Land, stood up to rigid attention, saluted me and said, "No thank you, Sergeant. I do not smoke." Now han this been an American General, I could not have even gotten on his train. Moreover, this noted General was traveling alone, not a single staff officer with him, when he could have had as many as he choose. He also gave me his name and an ephitet also, and now it is the most coveted incident in my diary. Should you ever honor my household with a visit, I shall be pleased to show it to you. Constantinople, so you no doubt remember was lost to Christendom in 1353 under Constantine XIII, and I cannot help but hbld in great admiration this man who had, in his own power, dictated to an empire, and who had led a crusade that not only re-won the tomb of Christ, but brought back to earth the rule of right, the peace, the good will to men and the gentleness he taught: "Vive, vive la France." With my very best wishes to Mrs. Bass and yourself, I am always. Yours fraternally. WILLIAM A. BIGBY, JR. Sgt. Clerk, U. S. A. Musician With National Reputation Comesto California Professor R. G.

NUMBER 26 Man Slays Wife With Razor The cold blooded murder of Mrs. Julia Joseph of 1619 E. 22nd St. caused the south east section of the city to be greatly perturbed Tuesday evening, nor was the indignation of the neighbors assuaged any when they came to know that the murderer was her own husband of thirteen years wedded life. A throat cut, from ear to ear is the reward of Matthew Joseph for the diligent service rendered him by his faithful wife, Julia. Mrs. Joseph is well-known and loved in the city: a member of the First A. M. E. Church. Some eighteen months ago there was started in the home a misunderstanding between husband and wife. The husband continued to maltreat the wife, it is said, and she told him that she thought it best that they part. He was not willing to a separation and so they still lived together but not in the most pleasant relationship. Matthew Joseph was a railroad porter until a week ago. Since that time he had been hanging around home with aparently "something on his mind." Tuesday evening Mr. and Mrs. Joseph, Mrs. Meteoir, grandmother to Mrs. Joseph and a neighbor were sitting on the porch engaged in a friendly chat; presently the neighbor went home and Mrs. Joseph went inside to assort some lines that she had laid on her bed in the afternoon. Mr. Joseph also arose and went in. Mrs. Joseph was bending over the bed assorting the linens when he addressed her, asking her "Don't you think we can get along better?" Her reply of "No. I think it better as I have told you, that we part." brought on the quizzical information that, "Well, we will both go together." With that remark Joseph is said to have slashed his wife's throat with the razor he and in his hand and ran out of the door. Only the faintest of screeds was Mrs. Joseph able to make. This brought the grandmother to the bedroom where she found her granddaughter lying, dying on the bed. An alarm was made. Joseph was arrested about one-half hour after the murder at 5:15 and Los Angeles Sts. An inquest was held over the remains of Mrs. Joseph Thursday at 10 o'clock at the Roberts Establishment, where the body was. The funeral was held Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock. ROSCOE CONKLIN, SIMMONS GREATEST ORATOR OF ALL TIMES WILL VISIT THE COAST NEXT MONTH. As announced in these columns some time back, the mighty Roscoe Conklin Simmons will visit California the latter part of September and early October. He will appear in this city under the auspices of the Woman's Day Nursery on September 24th at Trinity Auditorium; also at Pasadena, Riverside, San Diego, Imperial, Bakesfield, Fesno, Oakland, Vallejo and perhaps one or two other engagements which cannot be announced just now, leaving here he will go to Portland Seattle, Spokane, and Helena. Mont. This itinerary has been arranged for him by the editor of this paper, who will leave here, early in September, journey to Chicago, where he has been asked to appear on the program of the great Lincoln League on the evening of September 18th, and will there join Mr. Simmons and accompany him on his Western tour. So firmly has Mr. Simmons established himself in the hearts of the people that it has been no trouble to arrange these engagements, and the only drawback is the fact that we can hardly supply all demands during the time of his stay of three weeks on the Coast. 3 President of the Madam C.

BETHEL CHURCH OF CHRIST— (Holiness) Hooper Avenue and East Adams S Several new scholars were received in Sunday School and each enjoyed the hearty welcome extended. At the 11 a.m. service the Rev. Dr. Barber of Texas gave us a wonderful Texas shake up. The church was filled and from the hearty responses it was plain to everyone and also to the preacher, that God had driven home his great message to us all. At 4 p.m. Mrs. Leyten, President of the Women's National Baptist Convention addressed a Mass Meeting and her message will never be forgotten. The special outing in honor of the distinguished guest was quite a success. Our Young People had a delightful meeting in their B. Y. P. U. session. At night we observed the Lord's Supper and the hand of fellowship was given to many who joined the church during the month. On this Sunday morning we will hear from the greatest living Preacher and at Night Dr. Barber will again preach. Those wishful of getting seats at these services must come early. NEW HOPE BAPTIST CHURCH Rev. A. Lively, Pastor. The W. H. and F. M.

A day of feasting, indeed, in the Spirit was the past first Sunday for Macedonia. Beginning with our S. lesson, subject: "Christian Worship," in which we learned many important facts about worshipping, the reasons why, etc. Our historian gave us an interesting outline of Jesus' travels and miracles from Jerusalem to the well near Sychr where He met the Samaritan woman who was converted after His conversation with her. At 11 o'clock, our pastor preached to us about "The Last Supper" in which He admonished us to search ourselves, to watch and pray, so that we will not be a "Judas" and let the devil tempt us with 30 pieces of silver or with anything of this world. The presence of the Holy Spit was made manifest by the exclamations of joy from the congregation which was a source of inspiration to our shepherd. Our testimonial service in the evening was a spiritual feast indeed, with nearly every seat in the church filled. Many strangers joined us in testifying and singing songs of praises after which our pastor invited all who felt themselves worthy to commune with us. Collection for the day $30.17. All are welcome to our services. PHILIPS CHAPEL C. M. E. CHURCH, 1406 Newton Street. Rev. J. C. Anderson, Pastor. Sunday services were enjoyed by three splendid congregations at this church on the past Lord's Day. The pastor preached at both the morning and evening services and administered the Lord's Supper. Rev. R. N. Holt of the St. Paul Baptist Church preached at the afternoon service and his Choir rendered the music. The servic was very much enjoyed by those present. The Holy Spirit was present in demonstration and power and the hearts of believers were made to rejoice. The coming Sunday will see the close of the "Out of Debt" Rally of the Church. All the clubs have been showing unusual activity and the indications are for a successful effort. There will be special music rendered by the Choir all day. In the afternoon at three o'colck Dr. J. E. McCorkle of the First A. M. E. Zion Church will preach and the various pastors and their congregations are invited to be present. Additions are constantly being made to the membership of this fast growing church. Come where a welcome awaits you and where the old time fire is burning. THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE BETHEL CHURCH OF CHRIST— (Holiness) Hooper Avenue and East Adams St. Elder Wm. A. Washington, Pastor The services the past Sunday were indeed inspiring and helpful. Sunday School was well attended and very active. At the morning hour Elder D. Boswell preached an excellent sermon; Text: Luke 11:1. The principal thought was prayer, the greatest need of today; an earnest appeal was given for the church to pray more and greater results will be accomplished. Prayer is not a mere form of high sounding words, but the soul's sincere desire, whether unuttered or unexpressed. It is the only way through which we may become citizens of that Celestial City. At 8 p.m. he delivered another inspired and edifying sermon; Text: St. Luke 22:19. At this service the Lord's Supper was administered. Don't fail to hear these inspired sermons; songs of Zion by the Choir. Next week services: Sunday School, 9.45 a.m.; Preaching 11.30 a.m.; Y. P. L. 6 p.m. Wednesday 2.30 p.m. Sisters Willing Workers; 8 p.m. Brotherhood. Thursday 8 p.m. Praise and Preaching. All are welcome to attend these services. HAMILTON A. M. E. CHURCH Cor 18th and Naomi Avenue Roy S. M. Boone, Boston Services at this church on last Sunday were of a highly spiritual and helpful nature. The Sunday School under the efficient leadership of Mr. R. L. Edmonds steadily increases in interest and in numbers. The pastor preached in the morning from the subject, "Jesus in the Garden," and administered the Communion of the Lord's Supper. At night his subject was, "Going by Faith." These services were helpful and were enjoyed by all who worshipped with us. You are cordially invited to worship with us next Sunday. PIRST A. M. E. CHURCH NOTES 8th and Towne Avenue Rev. J. Logan Craw, Pastor. Thoroughly edifying and uplifting were the services all day the first Sunday in August which was last Communion day of this Annual Conference Year. The pastor delivered both sermons and there were four accessions to church membership. A great host communed. Many visitors were presented who worshipped with us; prominent among them were Rev. W. W. Wells, El Paso, Texas; Prof. Robert G. Jackson and wife, and Miss Wilson, Music Teacher of Western University; Mr. and Mrs. Slaughter of Sacramento; Mrs. Eyrene Gaines, Teacher and Mrs. Leona Roberts of Topeka, Kans. The united effort of collecting "Dollar Money," and "Connectional Claim Funds," was a cheerful success. Four weeks more remain open for every member and friend to make known your real church loyalty in responding to these annual benevolent charities.

Row Starts in Cafe. The first bitter feeling be- came apparent in Cafe De Mon- tricello, where several Amer- icans were having a dinner par- ty. The proprietor of the re- sort, absolutely free from pre- judice, seated several mixed couples adjacent to the dinner table of the whites. Blood arose in the eves of the Amer- icans and insulting .rem urks were directed at the couples. The management objected ta the unconth manner of the whites and ordered them from the cafe. On -leaying one of the members.slyiy pulled: the cloth from the table occupied hy the couples. This . action caused a rough and tumble fight in which the British were | victorious. * Whites Rob Taxi. Matters remained quiet un- Itil the fall of night. Under ‘cover of darkness the whites lheld up a taxicab and robbed two Britishers of 300 Pounds. Following this they entered the homes of the black population during their absence anc wrecked furniture, carried it into the streets and fired it. When this news was spread the British and Americans engaged in fierce fights. British Speak Qut. aes | Sipce the Americans have ‘been allowed to enter fashion- able clubs here that’ have no rues relating to color, they /have endeavored to impress the ‘British with the ract that such ie rule is necessary to preserve the superiority ot the white ‘rece. In the attempt to avoid clashes several cafe owners ‘have ordered that.the Americ- ‘an whites be denfed the privi- lege te eat in the main dining rooms. In an interview with a reporter Sir Atbertus Markham said: “In observing the cause and efiect of racial troubles it ‘can be traced directly to the in- fluence of the propaganda put ‘in operation b¥ the Americans during their sojourn in our midst as fighter of democracy. Lean emphatically say that En- gland knew no race troubles pricr to the advent of the American soldiers. Our con- ‘ception of What democracy veally means does not carry with it race discrimination and burning of human beings. En- gland has long since relegated ‘that idea to the background and she cannot afford at this late day to mar her brilliant record.” > Pzerliament has been asked to investigate the cause of the trouble arising between the races for the past few weeks. hem et Pa ee he GREAT FINAL CASH RALLY.

Dear Mr. Bass: While peacefully reclining on my little bunk and having just finished reading the "Eagle," which I receive regularly from my mother, Mrs. Fanny Hale of Presno; I can assure you that I find great pleasure in knowing the activities of the state, particularly the article saving the welcome that is shown the reurning soldiers boys. The boys have done and are doing wonderful work, the 815th Regiment included. We are exhuming and reburying the noble heroes who lost their lives in the Argonne Section, and who are being buried to themselves in an American cemetary here in Romagne. The work is grusome. indeed, but many mothers' hearts will be made to rejoice to know that her loved one was put away honorably, and should she ever visit France she can see his resting grace. We, the $15th, have been credited with having done excellent work, and have been given first opportunity of leaving for a seaport town for embarkation. From all indication, the $15th regiment will soon return to the dear old "Les Estats Unis," and will be glad to see their loved ones, and to receive the glory that awaits them. Trusting that I might have the pleasure of seeing you upon my arrival in the U. S. A., and with my very best regards to you and Mrs. Bass, I remain, always. Yours fraternally, LEROY CALHOUN. Sgt. U. S. Army. A TOAST FROM ONE OF OUR BOYS "OVERTHERE." Mars La Tour, France. May 15, 1919. Here's to Camp Lewis. In the beautiful Northwest. Where you do nothing but detail. And get very little rest.

Pat has developed a real baseball club in the city of Cincinnati. At the hour og going to press the panic stricken natives hadn't made up their minds whether to buy Patrick a medal or to have him arrested for disturbing the peace. The Reds are right up there fighting for the pennant. These Reds have made their big before. They were bidding the year Ft. Sumpter was fired on. They were bidding the season when Admiral Dewey was indulging in target practice down around Manila Bay. They have been bidding year after year, but somebody always outbid them. Heretofore it has been a favorite stunt for the Cincinnati club to break out all over in. May or June with something that resembled baseball rash. Then would come the well known sickening thud and the Reds would up down in the second division and stay folded. Pat Moran has broken all rules and regulations. The Reds played good ball in May and better ball in June. The Eastern experts put cotton in their ear sand waiter for the big blow up; they are still waiting. The Reds are playing like a house afire and the river dry. Straight through the July schedule, the critical month in baseball, the Cincinnati club has whanged, banged and chugged like a lot of young men who are in a hurry to catch a train or something. They have got old John J. McGraw worried, and it takes more than batting practice to rile John. McGraw figured he would win another National League pennant just to pass away the time. The Cubs couldn't make the grade. The Phillies had all sorts of engine troubles and the Boston Braves were a sad lot. But all the time, Rat Moran was acting like he didn't have norse sense. Here are the Reds, fighting the Giants to a standstill. There they stand—Moran and McGraw with a knockout punch in each hand—a running fight with two months to go. Will the Reds turn the baseball world upside down by finishing first, will they flivver as their custom of the past twenty years and flop ao second division? Clymer Resigns as Seattle Manager— Mullen Goes Job. Bill Clymer. Seattle manager, resigned his post as pilot of the local Coast League club last Wednesday when the club returned to the home fold, after a disastrous road trip to California. Clymer has been up against some rough going, injuries and failures hurting the club. Seattle has won but two games out of the last twenty one played. Clymer did not quit voluntarily, but was asked to resign. Chas. Mullen, formerly of the New York Yankees, will succeed him. Tigers Take a Tailspin and Flop. Vernon, after winning the leadership and holding it for a short time, departed last week for the North, where they played a seven game series, losing five out of seven to Oakland, better known as the Tigertamers. While Oakland had Vernon eating out of her hands, the Angels were here at home kicking Portland's dog around, taking five out of seven and regaining the League leadership. And if money has anything to do with it, Los Angeles intends to stay in first place, for Jonnny Powers is sending Jim Morley East to purchase new talent and to strengthen their line-up. Louderus Plays 475 Consecutive Games. John Haddler, president of the National League, sent a telegram to First Baseman Luderus of the Philadelphia Nationals congratulating him on breaking the Major League records for playing in successive games. Luderus has played in 479 consecutive games. Yanks have one of those shimmying averages. Shimmying is galloping while standing still. BOXING When a fighter gets knocked out on his feet he is hit some, and that's what happened to Ray Neil in his bout with young George at the Vernon arena last night. It happened in the fourth round after George had tried hard all the way to hand a knockout over the old-timer. The only knock down was in the second round when Neil was dropped with a right hand wallop. FIGHTING DOPE It is a mystery how the San Diego scraper staved off the whipping as long as he did. The youngster was trying everything he knew and slammed many a solid punch, but couldn't put him over for the couch. But Neil was knocked out without going down. George slammed the old-right hand to the head when the fourth round was about half gone, and Neil's legs began to wobble, and if the light had not been stopped George may have scored a knockout. Cliff Jordan beat Johnny Olmars four rounds; Al Truman and Joe Brown draw; Billy Nelson beat Solider Cummings four rounds; Jimmy Brenton won from Jimmy Berry four rounds; Martin Gay beat Harry Beecher four rounds. Jack Garley would Promote Go Between Dempsey and Meehan. Jack Curley, New York boxing promoter, is trying to arrange a contest between Willie Meehan of San Francisco and Jack Dempsey, heavyweight champion of the world, according to word received here today. Meehan, who is in Portland for a few days, received a letter from Curley giving him the details of the proposed go between the two. Curley said that while in Chicago JACK Kearns gave his consent to go thru with the bout. Curley is coming to San Francisco, to discuss the situation with Meehan. Langrod-Thompson Draw. Sam Langford of Boston and Jack Thompson of Philadelphia went 15 rounds to a draw last Monday. August 17th, at Tulsa, Okla. This was the first bout of the elimination series for the belt offered by Billy McClain for the colored heavyweight championship of the world. Carpenter in Pictures. Georce Carpenter. French heavy weight champion, has gone into the films. Carpenter is playing the lead role in the filming of a sea traggedy in Paris and will get $15,000. Lew Leader Wins Great Uphill Fight. Battling an uphill fight, Lew Tendler, Philadelphia's lightweight, gained a hard earned decision over Willie Jackson of New York at Shibe park, Philadelphia, August 4th. Down for the count of nine twice in the first round, Tendler pulled himself together and fought his way to a sensational victory by sheer nerve. Eight thousand light fans had visions of Billy Pend's lightweight hope being blotted out in less than two minutes. Ad Wolgast Trying to Come Back. Ad, who for some time has laid off the scrap game, is now staging a whirlwind comeback; says he will take on anybody in the world at 135 pounds. Ad fought a six-round draw with Fighting Deaver August 1 at Yuma, and Hobo Dougherty, his manager, says he was much fresher at the end of the scrap than he was when he commenced. They all think they can come back, and it remains to be seen just what Wolgast can do. Twin Won by a K. O. Jack (Twin' Sullivan knocked out Indian Jamison of Buffalo in the second round of their ten-round bout last Monday night. Sullivan is only about a billion years old and winning fight, with another one in sight with Tom Cowler for Monday night. Joe Beckett, the English champ, and Eddie McCoy of Wisconsin have been matched for a 20-round bout on September 2 for a purse of $10,000 and a side bet of $5000. Another Chapter Soon. Looks like Britton and Lewis are going to fight one another until they both get arrested for hitting old men. They are matched again for the 21st time. But for Ted Lewis, Jack Britton probably would be in the poorhouse; were Jack Britton not hovering around Ted Lewis might have been forced to go to work long ago. Whenever one or the other needs a little excitement or spending money, a bout is arranged. Always with a "to be continued" clause. And the public always foot the bills. Tenth Cavalry Boys Visitors in Tourney. Splendid time in the track events, and good distances in the field events were made in the athletic tournament held last week at Ft. Huachuca, Ariz. in which the First Cavalry, Tenth Cavalry, Nineteenth Infantry and the Twenty-fifth infantry took part. Loxing events and baseball games were also held and proved thrillers. Williamson of the Tenth Cavalry stepped the 100 yard dash in 10 seconds flat, and the 220 in 21 1-5 seconds. Heard of the Tenth win the broad jump with 21 feet 5 inches. The 21 THE CALIFORNIA EAGLE Tenth Cavalry seemed to have the edge on everything, finally winning the baseball series, defeating the Twenty-fifth Infantry in the final game; 17 to 6. A man took his wife to the dentist's to have a tooth pulled and it gave her lock jaw. The husband and he have been pals ever since. "Strangler" Lewis Throws Frandavich "Strangler" Ed Lewis won two of three falls in his match last Tuesday at San Francisco with Ivan Strandavich, the Russian wrestler who is credited with having defeated many of the best matmen in the country. Lewis won the first fial in 46 minutes and 2 seconds, and took the second fall in 36 minutes and 55 seconds. He won both fials with the "Lewis" headlock. Grandavich weighed 225 pounds, while his opponent registered 10 pounds heavier. Cricket A very interesting meeting of the Carribean Cricket Club was held on Sunday afternoon at the Club's temporary headquarters, 961 E. 18th street. The president, Mr. E. Burton Ceruti, called the meeting to order at 2:20, and upon roll call, H. A. S. Cuming, 1st vice president, J. Franklin, provost, Eddy, Alleyne, Williamson, Robinson, Patterson, Chase and Watson responded to their names. Matters of vital importance affecting the immediate getting into line, were properly discussed and dispensed with, resulting in the appointment of several committees in whose hands were the forge to weld the final link to the chain of completion. No organization of its kind has been crowned with such marked success in so short a time, and our membership still soars upward. Keep your eyes on the California Eagle for the account of our initial game. A meeting of the Carribean Cricket Club will be held at its temporary quarters, 961 E. 18th street, Sunday, August 10th, for the final arrangement prior to our gettining into the field. The meeting was partially agreed upon for the special benefit of those of the prospective members, whom by some unavoidable cause were prevented from attending the other meetings. The time of meeting will be 2:30 p. m. sharp and every member is expected to be present. TENNIS DOINGS DOINGS AT THE WEST SIDE TENNIS CLUB. The West Side Tennis Club had a very busy week. They are getting down to business and promise a world of trouble for all who enter the Labor Day Tournament. Even our old gol. Mr. Joseph Prosper, has cast aside his business activities, so that he may, be well trained for the coming brawl Labor Day. Not only are the men showing all the interest in the coming affair. The ladies also are holding up their end and have pushed the pianist stool under the old music box and covered it secure to keep the moths and dust out and are on the court knocking the pill around in old-time form. A peep at some of their mixed doubles that are now in training. Mrs. Roscoe Brown and Wm. Clart. Miss Virginia Martin and Wm. Duna. Miss E. Hollens and Roscoe Brown Miss Z. Johnson and Mr. Miller. Mrs. Joseph Prosper and Arthur Mason. The West Side was invaded again last Sunday and they were there with the same pep and enthusiasm. I wonder if they ever stop for water, gas or oil. Oh! well! Luck to you, someone. Speaking of dentists, it is just about as pleasant to go to a dentist as it is to have your mother-in-law with you on your honeymoon trip. The only chance a marked man has to win an argument with his wife is when she is in the dentist's chair. Hop Off. The Western Federation of Tennis Clubs gave the much talked of hop-off dance last Saturday. August 2, which was well attended and finished up their subscription for our player-to-New-York fund, and everyone had a wonderful time. With the dance fresh on our memory, we boarded the car last Wednesday evening for the Santa Fe station to have the last look at our old pal and bid him luck and God-speed, just as he boarded the train for the Gotham city. The Federation wishes to thank the public for the interest and support they have taken in their player-to-New-York drive. Peters Going East. Our old pal, Mr. E. G. Peters of the Santa Monica Club, left last night, over the Santa Fe for New York to join our champion, Ballinger Kemp. Mr. Peters will enter the singles and will also be Kemp's partner in the doubles.

Van had a very interesting experience while overseas, having touched at many places of interest including London, Liverpool, Paris, Marsailles, Belgium, Scotland and many other places of interest. He will speak on Sunday afternoon at the Colored Branch of the Y. M. C. A. during the program that is to be under the auspices of the Athletic Committee.

And although he seems to be a bird of a "different leather" still the rest of the staff are extending to him a hearty welcome; hoping that on a Sunday, when the Printer's Devil is all dressed up and the Lino Operator's hands and face are for once clean and his hair sleeked back, that he will get a glimpse of them then, and feel more at home.

On last Saturday evening an informal Reception was given Madam Leyten of Philadelphia, who is President of the Women's Work of the National Baptist Convention, who visited in the city Saturday and Sunday. Saturday she was the guest of Mrs. S. B. Strickland on Worcester Avenue during the day, and in the evening was the guest of honor at the reception tendered her by Mrs. W. C. Fields at the home of the Rev. and Mrs. J. A. Fleming on Waverly Drive, at which time she talked very interestingly of the things that must be done by the Missionary workers all over this United States. On Sunday morning Mrs. Leyten was at the Friendship Baptist Church, and following the very eloquent, forceful and enlightening sermon by the Rev. Tillman, she entertained the large congregation for about thirty minutes in a very interesting and intelligent manner. Mrs. Leyten is a very bright and talented woman and can entertain any audience. We are very sorry that her time was so limited in this part of the State so that she might have appeared again to our congregation. cool was her "good night!" Tuesday morning, by the non-appearance of said editor at her desk, the Managing Editor knew her to be on her long talked of vacation. Wednesday afternoon the Society Editor dropped in and from sheer force of habit edited her columns and informed all questioners that Saturday evening would find her high in the hills of the mountain ranch home of her sister. Too tired to even will or bequeath her many obligations she left them all in the hands of the already brimming over ones of the Managing Editor. THE COMING PIANIST OF THE RACE. Even those who are clod-blooded with regard to technical piano playing, could but catch a soul appreciation of Mrs. Lorenza Jordan-Cole's superb renditions on the piano last Wednesday evening at the Independet Church of Christ. So sublimely did she fondle the keys that one could have easily lost sight of any human effort, and in fancy perceived one of the long lost music masters winding out revero after revere until his soul was brim full. Mrs. Cole has made marked improvement since she left Los Angeles, and those persons who are in touch with modern developing along the music culture line predict for Mrs. Cole the coming artist of the Race. Mrs. Rosa Wooden, who presented Mrs. Cole upon this occasion, deserves credit for the artistic arrangement of the affair. MRS. W. LAYTON SPEAKS.

It is time that we were making a real use of this highest form of self expression, that unique type of song known as the "spiritual." Mrs. Durlin has set the traditional tune of "Ride on Jesus," melody from the natives of St. Helena's Island, S. C., (whose population consists of 6,000 colored and thirty white peole) and she calls her work "Hymn of Freedom." It was first sung at St. Helena's Island when the pioneers of the draft were about to leave the community to go to war. The "Hymn of Freedom" has been used with great effect by the colored troops in various cantonments. Other Negro spirituals are undergoing adaptation for army purposes, among them some marches which are eagerly being added to the hiking list. Mme. Florence Cole Talbert has been studying with Oscar Saenger, the greatest vocal coach in the United States. He has taught Mme. Talbert to sustain E flat above High C with case. Lessons with Mr. Saenger cost $10.00 for thirty minutes. The race should feel proud of Mme. Talbert and her example should be followed by others of our race who have beautiful voices. The Prince of Wales, who is visiting America at present is very fond of the music that the colored orchestra of the "Midnight Frolics." New York, plays daily.

Watson) After tearfully kissing his beloved mother, dad, pretty sister, a score of sweethearts and admirers good-by at the Santa Fe Station, Wednesday night, champion Ballinger Kemp high-balled the engineer, stepped aboard a pulman, tipped the expectant porter and fell into the feathers for his first nights snoose while speeding toward gay New York. An enormous crowd of friends and well-wishers were present to see Bal off, each one feeling confident that he'll have several Easterner's scalps dangling from his belt when he returns. Farewell old pal, we know you will do your best, we are strong for you—win or loose. The fans are certainly to be thanked for their loyal support of this movement. The Federation itself feels deeply indebted to the public for its broadness of heart and offers its heartfelt thanks and assurance of appreciation for the kindness shown in all the tennis events during the players-to-New York drive. The total receipts for this purpose were $225.90; Three Hundred Dollars were given to Kemp for expenses and the $25.90 also, but as an emergency fund.

JACK DEMPSEY REFUSES $100 000.000 PURSE—ACCEPTS $250,000.000 Excuse me the hour that referee Ollie Moore and raised the brawny gloves over hand of Jack Dempsy at the independence Day swat-fest at Touthern Ohio, in token of his newly wired quirks, a flock of promoters, match-makers, would-be fighters, dups, and second-raters, and camp hangers-ons have been scouring the country in a frantic effort to un-earth a new dope with enough kick bottled up in his, bread-winner to knock the champion into oblivion. Even some of the pre-historic warriors of the has-been and never-was thriefy are busy firing a broad-side of challenges and counter challenges at the new little marvel, while a battery of movie magnets, managers of circus concerns and high powered vanillin agents have been constantly camping upon Dempsey's trail, armed with a set of articles and contracts powered with offers of fabulous and staggering sums stretching into the fifth and sixth zero column are in a wild scramble to secure the attachment of the wily champ's moniker. The procession seems equally as high-spirited as the late expedition that was sent out to discover a white hope to capture and compass the pugilistic burial of Il' Artha Johnson, although with somewhat less display of antagonism. Why, almost before the title-stripped Willard recovered consciousness, the pugilistic firmament was rent by long-range heavy artillery firing of challenges in the general direction of California from the dry but justy throats of Jim Flynn the fighting Duchef firgman and Wee Willie Meehom the battling California factory, each, at the same time roffing and bobbling the others boisterous demand for a fletch go at the crown.

Chunky Willie Mecham four-rounded Dempsey out of a verdict in the Cate City less than a year ago and clammers to repeat the dose in a longer bout; and is heavily backed by Byron Long, the famous promoter and sportsman, who plans a $1,500,000.00 syndicate to stage the match at the grand opening of a hotel at Tla Juana Mexico. Then there is George McDonald representing promoter C. B. Cochran of Paris, dangling a $100,000 purse in Dempsey's face for a match with the winner of the Georges Carpenter Joe Beckett set to, September 2, says they may pocket this chicken feed if the battle can be pulled off under the stars and stripes. Also Mrs. Snowy Baker, wife of the famous, Australian promoter, who handled the Johnson-Burns rumpus there in 1908 came 7,000 miles only to meet first-hand refusal of a $100,000.00 bait for a fight between Dempsey and any dug they could select.

The Musicians Progressive Association under the direction of Miss Mayme Lowe, presented its first Educational program, Saturday evening, July 26th at the Parish Hall, 16th and Patoma Avenue. The principal feature of the program was an address by Mr. Noah D. Thompson upon the subject "The effect of music on Character." Mr. Thompson's address was instructive, practical and educational, and received a very hearty welcome. The club is composed of two kinds of members active and associate, and every music-lover will be asked to become a member and help put the music of the Negro upon a higher plane. The program rendered is as follows: "Talk upon French music," by Mr. John A. Gray; Violin Solo, Mr. Owen Troy; Vocal Solo by Miss Lucy Mae Williams and a Tenor Solo by Mr. Dewey Johnsou.
