THE MATTER OF BRUCE'S BEACH
July 9th, 1924
To the Board of Directors,
L. A. Branch, N. A. A. C. P
In reference to the matter of Bruce's Beach, referred to this office for an opinion, permit me to advise that an investigation shows:
That Mrs. Bruce's property is not strictly beach property; Mr. Peck be-

ing the owner of the land intervening between Mrs. Bruce and the water. So far as has been ascertained two ordinances passed by the City Council of Manhattan Beach; one condemning the property under consideration for the park purposes and the other zoning it for residential purposes and disallowing bath houses and other business in that territory. These two ordinances conflict; but it is likely that the former will be abandoned and the latter sustained by the council. (continued on page 10)
FAR FAMED PRIMA DONNA
Portland, Orogon
Mrs. Jessie Coles Grayson
Mrs. Jessie Coles Grayson, whose reputation as one of the greatest nightingales of this country and whose fame has gone forth to every section will make her first appearance in this city on Monday evening, June 14th, at the Eighth and Towne Avenue Church. Mrs. Grayson should deceive a notable reception for truly Los Angeles is her home town, and in days gone by she was on the staff of the West's greatest weekly.

SWEET GIRL GRADUATE

Sensation Divorce Case, Wm. Stevens Vs. Willa Stevens In Judge Burnell's Court.
CORRESPONDENT WAS IN TESTIMONY REPORTED TO HAVE SAID: "YOU ARE THE LION, I AM THE MOUSE: LET ME LIVE."
In Judge Burnell's Court, Dept. 4, of the Superior Court, the soiled linen of the divorce case of Wm. Stevens vs. Willa Stevens was hung out on the lines for cleansing. In many ways it is a remarkable case and one in which the plaintiff, despite the damaging and seemingly overwhelming evidence of misconduct, refuses to back up one mich and flatly disputes every allegation made against her.
The case up to this writing with the defendant on the stand: witness after witness giving damaging testimony including the Plaintiff. The defendant, Willa Stevens, goes on the stand and not one word she says that has been uttered against her is true and on the contrary yet what has been testified, she is a true, loyal and loving wife. That she did not commit adultery as alleged, neither did she fail to cook defendant's meals or to mend his clothes, etc.
the trial itself as exclusively announced in this paper was started off before Judge Burnell on last Tuesday at 10 o'clock A.M.
EVIDENCE ADDUCED
The legal lights appearing in the case are: Judge Thomas P. White and Hugh E. Macheth for the Plaintiff and Willis O. Tyler for the defense.
WM. STEVENS, PLAINTIFF ON THE STAND
Stevens is rated as one of the shrewdest detectives who ever set out to solve a criminal case in the West. His fame has gone forth in all sections of the country and he is a tower of criminals. He is fighting this counter charge to his suit for vengeance and in the same methodical manner as in all his other cases he seems to be prepared in this one.
After the usual preliminary questions led by White, Wim
BIG DRAWING CARD
The trial itself was the big drawing card for the week. Not many murder trials of noted criminals have attracted bigger crowds. Los Angeles' smart set has been largely represented. The club women, the clergy, some of the staid, sturdy citizens have been like clock work in making time for this case. They are there morning, at noon, and at all the recesses.
However, after several postments,
COMMENTS
We were astonished to hear a young man make the remark that "it was no use for a Negro to equip himself for anything more important in life than that of a boot black as he would never be given any opportunity to advance". Now this young man, from an intellectual standard is above the average. He is a product of our public schools and is to enter for a course of study at one of the universities. But there is something radically wrong with that, young man; something lacking in the stuff from which men are moulded. Education without stiff vertebral backing is like a fine looking machine with defective driving power, polished on the outside but no good for the grade.
What this Race needs is young men and young women who will fight to obtain an education and then use that education as a weapon to remove the barriers which confront them. It seems sometimes to us that we lack that grim determination that possessed our fathers and our mothers of past days. That unconquerable spirit which helped them to bear the burdens of slavery and yet trod bravely on toward the beacon light of freedom. And, then the indomitable will to give to their offspring the heritage of an education to fit them for life's battles, battles which they knew would have to be fought in the march for racial achievement. Such thoughts should inspire our youth with courage and a desire to conquer. Give us the boys (Continued on page 5)
STATEMENT OF CHANGE OF NAME
Mrs. Pearl G. Hall of 1240 Long Beach Ave., announces to the general public that her name as afore written or stated Mrs. Pearl G. Hall, has been legally changed to Miss Pearl G. Mays.
the trial itself as exclusively announced in this paper was started off before Judge Burnell on last Tuesday at 10 o'clock A. M.
EVIDENCE ADDUCED
The legal lights appearing in the case are: Judge Thomas P. White and Hugh E. Macbeth for the Plaintiff and Willis O. Tyler for the defense.

Stevens is rated as one of the shrewedest detectives who ever set out to solve a criminal case in the West. His fame has gone forth in all sections of the country and he is a tower of criminals. He is fighting this counter charge to his suit for divorce and in the same methodical manner as in all his other cases he seems to be prepared in this one.
After the usual preliminary questions Judge White questioned Wm. Stevens as follows:
Q. On the 22nd day of April, what time did you come home?
A. At 1:30 P. M.
Q. How long did you wait there?
A. Until about 6:30 P. M.

Betrothal Announcement
C.
Miss Ethel Frances Billups
The home of Mr. and Mrs. Herbert
Howard, 1330 E 41st street was the
attractive center for the gathering of
a very expectant crowd of popular
young people of the city Friday evening,
June 27u, 1924. They all knew
something of important interest was
due to take place. After the young
people had very thoroughly enjoyed
the evening's entertainment the an-
nouncement of the betrothed of Miss
Ethel Frances Billups to Mr. Louis
Raymond Hurd was read. Miss Billups
is the daughter of Mrs. Gertrude Billu-
ps, 112 S. Rivern street, this city,
and is very popular among the young
set.
On Sunday, July 13th, Graduation
exercises of the Wilkins School of
Music will be held a tRev. Holf's

WALTER V. ALLEN IN RECITAL Hamilton M. E. Church, Monday, July 21st
WALTER V. ALLEN
The Smiling Thru Club of the New Hope Baptist Church presents Walter V. Allen in Recital, Monday evening, July 21, 1924 at the Hamilton M. E. Church, 18th and Naomi Sts.
Mr. Allen comes to us highly recommended as a Soloist Tenor. He has traveled very extensively in the States and in Canada and has won the admiration of music lovers wherever he has appeared.
He was ably assisted by Lawrence Lassiter, Violinist, whose playing always captivates his hearers.
Mozelle Te Outley will be the accompanist for the evening.
MRS. S. B. STRICKLAND IN EAST
Word has been received from Mrs. S. B. Strickland of her safe journey East.
Mrs. Strickland, well known Missionary and civic worker in Los Angeles, Pasadena and in fact the whole state of California, left about two weeks ago for an extended trip over the middle west, and east.
Ever since the thought of the Old Folks' Home was conceived in the minds of its founders it seems as if simultaneously Mrs. Strickland was chosen to be the one most to take the burden of the work upon her heart and mine. Since the writer can remember when the name of the Old Folks' Home was mentioned it carried with it the name of Mrs. Strickland. For many years she has been president of the Board of Management of the Home. She has given her time and of her substance that this, a most needed work, might be established. The Baptists founders of the home have appreciated her work to the extent that they have kept her at the head of it all these years and one tooth to lose her even for a little while. A pleasant stay and good return are wished for her.

TRAFFIC
Los Angeles and in fact every city of importance finds itself today with many various problems the solution of which in a majority of instances requires time, brains, data, furnished by experts and last but not least, the community co-operation.
Chief amongst these many problems, to my mind, none is more important than the traffic problem, and no other problem is causing these cities and particularly our own more worry. When one stops to think and consider that every third call for an ambulance is a traffic call and that on an average from three to four people lose their lives weekly in our city, the question is asked when will traffic conditions improve.
The enactment of laws tends to minimize accidents, 'tis true, but a city can enact and have placed upon its statute books all the laws it wishes, but if the owners and drivers of motor vehicles don't familiarize with such laws as are now before them we can't expect accidents to decrease.
Nine out of ten accidents are caused by not knowing the law and could have been avoided.
Suppose for a change each driver secured a copy of the laws governing traffic and familiarized themselves with them. I'm sure it would go a long way toward reducing the number of accidents.

This is the third article of a series where to spend your vacation. Last week we were forced to omit what appears this week owing to the fact that we went to press a day earlier on account of the 4th.
After hearing of the wonders of the great National Yosemite Park, with its big trees and of Elsinore with its beautiful lake methinks I hear a faint sound as if some one said amen, but ho, rest that amen until we at least tell you of Bear Lake. Never have been there?
Well we can truthfully say then that you have missed half of your life so you had better live the balance well if heaven is your goal.
Big Bear Lake is located in the mountains east of San Bardino some eighty odd miles from Los Angeles and for one that loves to hunt and fish this is the gamesman's paradise. Trout fishing and in winter duck
of White Auto Company bagged the limit on three successive days which is a record. Cahms are available and a real time can be had if one goes prepared. The most economical thing to the success of the trips is having a good car. A Ford or a Pierce-Arrow is O. K., but it must be a good one.
This trip can be made so as to include the rim of the world tour, now famous the world over.
Stage lines make the trip daily for the convenience of those who have no auto.
One may spend a day, a week end or their entire vacation without thought or desire of home. The lake is a beautiful body of water surrounded by Natural forrests paroled by rangers under government supervision. Nothing is being left undone to make it worth one's while to visit.
Familiarize yourself by taking such a trip now, its worth while and you will be amply repaid for the effort made.

A GLIMPSE INTO REPUBLICANISM By: Guy Hemby
The recovery of several states by the Republicans is a very significant fact. It shows that the Democratic reaction which has been so fondly believed is a delusion. It proves how frail is the gold of the democratic party anywhere except in such States as Texas and Georgia, and how profound is the distrust of it which is instinctive in this generation of Americans. Indeed, nothing but unpardonable folly and blindness can deprive the Republican party of its ascendency. The strength of the Democratic opposition is derived solely from the dissatisfaction of some Republicans with their own party course. That is to say, it is wholly negative, not positive. Indeed, all the actual tendencies of the Democratic party, as distinguished from its formal professions, are plainly perilous.
Thus it professes regard for the freedom of industry; but its real feeling, as its last national declaration showed, is for repudiation, which, by destroying the public faith, would be industrial ruin. It professes regard for individual liberty, but not only is it still largely controlled by the old slavery spirit of hatred of equal rights but it allies itself with the only "night shirt and pillow case organization" in the country, and an organization necessarily hostile to political freedom. It professes profound respect for the Constitution, but, as a fact, it furnished the doctrines and the men who sought to sever the Union; and every man in the country who excuses the attempt and hates freedom and the Constitution, belongs to the Democratic party. Indeed, if anywhere there is contemptuous disregard for human rights—if there is an argument in favor of public dishonor—if there is hostility to the government—if there is pandering to hooded meddling in politics—if there is an appeal to ignorance and a surrender of the rights of citizens to the threats to a mob—it proceeds from the Democratic party. And now after the most flagrant and incredible corruption, the most astounding theft of the money and land of the people, was exposed, it was seen to have been perpetrated under the auspices of the chief leaders of that party.
It is not, therefore, surprising that there is a universal conviction that whatever the offenses of the Republican party, they are not to be remedied by Democratic success. If the Republican financial system is 'unsound, repudiation is not a sounder policy. If the wisdom of Republican Ku-Klux legislation is questionable, there is no question of the peril of laws made by those who excuse the Ku-Klux. If the Republican view of the national power is extravagant, the Democratic theory of State sovereignty is destructive. If the Republican mingling of morals with politics be sometimes crude, the Democratic sneer at moral ideas is always perilous. These are facts which are constantly evident to the public mind. There is a great liberality of abuse of party fidelity, but party fidelity is only another name for perception of tendencies. When certain measures are carried there is a loud cry that the party work is done; that the party is an association for certain purposes, and that it naturally dissolves when they are accomplished. How, then, if when slavery was abolished and could not extend into the Territories, and the war, being fought out, could not be renewed, the Republican party had disbanded? The issues, as they are called, were settled. Why did the party continue?
Because issues, or questions of policy, are determined by principles and tendencies. The old philosophers said that a man was by nature either a Stoic or an Epicurean. It is as true of politics as of philosophy. The Republican party continued after slavery was abolished and the wared end, because the spirit and tendency of the Democratic party were as threatening and dangerous as ever. It continues today for the same reason. No platforms, no professions, no new departures, will avail to change the political instinct of the country. A man who has been a sot until fifty may sign the pledge, and swear by all that he holds sacred to drink no more; but he is not trusted like one who has been always bolder. The devil that controlled him is under duress; but he is the same old devil. Nobody believes THIRS to be a republican, although he is called President. Nobody supposes that the Kn Kluxers and the Bourbons will cease to intrigue because they sit in what is called a republican Assembly. The recent primaries throughout the nation, and the feeling in the country, of which everyone is conscious who is in the way of knowing its expression, allow that Democratic success is not believed to be a remedy for Republican remissness.

Rev. A. T. Hines, Pastor
Our services last Sunday were filled with the sweet presence of the Holy Spirit. The Sunday School was well attended the children are elated over their new quarters for departmental work, they seem to feel since the new church is incomplete save that department that they take first place in the Pastor's mind, we too feel that they make no mistake; however, we are looking forward to the time when we all might rejoice in our new home. We are conducting a vacation Bible School from 9 to 12 daily, we have enrolled 94 pupils. Visitors are always welcome. We were deeply impressed in the morning service by the reclaiming of a father and at the same time the conversion of his daughter.
The sermon preached by Rev. Hines
teamed to have penetrated the hearts
of many and as soon as the invitation
was extended the father who is but a
woman man made his way to the alar
—fall upon his knees saying, in as
many words, "Father I have sinned."
And it goes without saying that I

Rev. S. M. Beane, B. D., Pastor
After an extended trip East our pastor has returned, and occupies his pulpit at the morning and evening hours. The services are of that high order, which always characterizes them. Last Sunday saw the celebration of the Lord's Supper, when a large number bowed at the alter and rendered their vows. The pastor preached two very interesting sermons from the subjects: "The Holy Communion," and "God is Love." These sermons were much enjoyed by those who heard them. The Choir is still rendering such music as delights and edifies the listeners, under the able direction of Mrs. Helen Wortham. The Sunday school under the leadership of Prof. Eason is doing a very fine work, is growing in numbers and attendance and enthusiasm. The other departments are at their usual tasks and are productive of much usefulness.
The church and Methodism in Los Angeles, and indeed on the Coast are looking forward in great anticipation to the visit during the Summer of Bishop Clair, among us. Due notice will be given of his arrival and service while among us.
Many social functions are on the calendar for the immediate weeks before us. One of them was given on Tuesday evening when there was held under the auspices of the Choir, a womanless wedding and foot social. It was a delightful affair, and was enjoyed by all.
The pastor will occupy the pulpit on next Sunday at the 11 o'clock hour, and in the evening there will be a missionary program under the auspices of the Sunday School.

PEOPLE'S INDEPENDENT CHURCH OF CHRIST
Rev. N. P. Greggs, Pastor
The first Sunday of the month is always an exceptional day. Last Sunday was exemplary of this fact. Services were very good, and the results of the day were fruitful and appreciative. In the morning pastor Greggs preached on the subject: "Misplaced Emphasis." His sermon was very pointed and instructive. The Choir sang with the usual degree of high appreciation. The soloist of the morning was Prof. Thomas Johnson, director of the Choir. A number of accession were made to the church.
The Lord's Supper was administered with the usual effectiveness. The evening Services were marked with appreciation, being instructive and spiritually effective. Dr. Greggs' subject for the evening's discourse was, "Obeying the Rules and Playing the Game." The services for next Sunday are scheduled for big interest and the congregation will be the recipient of a special treat. The pastor will preach a stirring sermon in the morning, destined to electrify the congregation spiritually. In the evening, Prof. Oscar Spencer, Principal of the Nowater, High School of Oklahoma, who was the charming orator at the St. Louis World's Fair, will deliver his famous address at 7:30 in the evening.

HE HAS COME
By I. B. A. Truthteller
He said that he was coming back.
As surely as Jesus, having said that
He is coming again and will come, even so he, being his disciple, could be no less true to his word.
Yes, there were many that said he was not coming, so there the many who are not looking for the Lord.
Were there many that hoped he would not come again, fearful of the power of his Christlike life? There were many hypocrites in the time of Christ that feared His presence even in their town; that is might take away their power.
Ah, but there were many who prayed, who hoped and who now rejoice, that he has come even as he said.
Dr. A. J. Stokes returned to the city Sunday afternoon to take up his work as pastor of the Mt. Zion Baptist Church. When he came to the coast, the first of the year, to look over the work and returned home to arrange affairs for his definite stay here, it seemed well, as if it couldn't be possible that he, one of the first among the first of Baptists of this country was coming here to pastor. But he has come, all ye doubting Thonases may see him for yourselves Sunday morning at Mt. Zion.

YOUNG PEOPLE, THINK!
Strict observance of the rules of decency and department should be very closely adhered to by our young folk in public places and gatherings. Little or no attention is given this matter by our young people who at times conduct themselves other than gentlemen and ladies. The discrimination that is thrung upon us is due in a great many instances primarily because of the company and around the other fellow. A great many times in pictures shows when the screen depicts something funny invariably even though the house is dark and other people are likewise enjoying the film, you can generally tell the location of our groups, by the "hoss laff," that amits from that locality. The proposition of discrimination can be eliminated not by force, it calls for infilitility, instigated only by our actions, which is supposed (huzzah!) into intellectual cultivation. Our young people should be a bit more discreet, and not be associated with the adage which reads thus: "Fools' names are like their faces, always seen in public places."
BIBLE SCHOOL ENTHUSIASTIC
Interest has not waned among the children who attend the daily Vacation Bible School. The longer they go the more enthusiastic they be come. The present force of teachers has been greatly helped by the addition to the staff of Mrs. E. Sotton. Mrs. E. Sotton gratis to teach the girls sewing, that the school may be more thoroughly equipped. Her services are very much appreciated and goes further—shows her interest in our youth.
KU KLUX IN ACTION
We are in receipt of the information that a petition has been sufficiently signed to submit a recall of the city officials for their alleged attack upon the organization by dismissing a certain number of police officers. It is hoped and expected that no Negro signed this petition, for regardless of their purported declaration that they are not seeking to intimidate the black man—yet they say: "we maintain white supremacy." On the other hand why do they claim that the personnel of its membership must be of the white race. The black citizens of this town had better get busy, use his ballot and hit this thing a death blow—or some, not the same ultimatum, I fear, will willow us as in Texas to our brethren—disqualified to vote save in national issues. We urge you to "watch your step."
BIG TIME AT MONROVIA
The Second Baptist Church at Monrovia was the scene of a grand affair last Sunday afternoon when that service after a wonderful baptismal sermon by Rev. R. H., Wade, Field Missionary and a few words of encouragement by Ralph Troy of Friendship Baptist Church, 16 children went down in the pool. This great addition was due to the work of the Sunday School officials in carrying out that part of slogan which says: "My Sunday School must grow and go and I will help to make it so." The house was filled from front to back, despite the heat of the afternoon. On Monday they opened their daily Vacation Bible School which was largely attended. 0-00-0
The girls of the W. W. G. spent the Fourth at the beach, from which trip they reported a delightful time under the supervision of Mrs. Z. Groner and Mrs. J. H. Harrison. It is hoped this organization will remain intact with an increased membership.
CROWDS ATTEND SERVICE
THE pleasant weather is quite an incentive for the continued attendance at the special service at Friendship under the direction of Mr. Lewis, the singing evangelist. In his campaign, he has been quite successful in bringing the light through his spiritual service. So eager are the people please to see the early as $ 0 lockup is only standing room is available when services begin. Up to now it is reported there are fourteen candidates reported for baptism among whom a great many children. The staff of Friendship Baptist Church met at the residence of Mr. W. Matt Solomon, 15$ Hummond st. Wednesday evening.

EDITOR'S NOTE—The world old argument, "Which was first the chicken or the egg?" may be likened unto the practical query, "Which should be first, business or politics?" Speaking of the business development of a notable group in one of the famous southern states an observer remarked
What advantage does that give me without political power?" He, or course is political in trend. Fast is one is an assistance to the other. There can be real progress where the people have political power, then the gratifying progress that the support for the devolution. One must support the other, however, if the going is to be the best. Some day there will be a larger reaffiliation of the values or all working together on all things. North, South East and West—and then we will get somewhere.
STAFF CORRESPONDENCE
It is very providentially fortunate that there happens not to be a racial Register of the Treasury with the present outting down. Oh me, Oh my, suppose the Register were Charles A. Cotrill of Ohio, or some one of the other dozen or more spendid citizens who were willing to let their signature stand for officially making valid the paper money of the United States government? There would be real hot water now. There is Confusion", to quote the title of "R. Fausett's new novel. And there is much of it here in Washington just at the present. There has to be something to make up for the excitement of Congress, for with the hot weather and the general exits of stat esmen, the Capitol does not seem natural.
"There are still some few remaining, who remind us of the past" Among them is President Coolidge "Keep Cool With Coolidge". The president has highly resolved to make the White House his summer home and on the 24th of July, will be notified, officially, that there assembled in the city of Cleveland, state of Ohio a Republican National Convention with delegates from every state in the union, and from district, territories and other possessions, and that said delegates there and then did vote unanimously, "except for a few voices from Wisconsin" in the words of the Chairman to invite Calvin C. Coolidge, president of the party to bear the burden of the party for the great office of President of the U. S. A. There are some who have been wondering whether Mr. Coolidge will accept, after he gets over the surprise that he has been chosen. However, "old time political observers" are of the opinion that, with due pressure, the silent statesman from New England will be willing to stand for the job.
On July 31, Gen. Charles G. Dawes of Evanston, Ill., which in connection with Chicago is like going to Arlington or Alexandria from here, except Evanston is in the same state, well the general 'Hell and Maria', with which he was born, is officially informed, on said date, that he has been selected to be hidden away in the supposedly undisturbed office of Vice President. "There won't be a dead one in the office of Vice President when Charley Dawes takes up the gavel," stated one citizen of Illinois who knows where he speaks.

Chicago, Ill., July 9.—(By The Association Negro Press). Colored America watched with the greatest interest the "death struggle" of the Democrats in New York on the "Three Little Works". Ku Klux Klan. It was a death struggle, for the Democratic party will never get over that night. The Klux is avowedly against "Catholicice, Jews, foreigners and Negroes" Coming to a real issue, as it did in the Convention, and with the bitterness and suspicion there engendered it will take more than the years of the present moment to wipe out the feeling. On the other hand, there is that unyielding element in the party of the South, which holds on worse than a build-up to things it believes in—Negroes in politics and the like.
It was not "Our fight," but there were those in it who thought of the effect on racial votes. The minority of resolution, which lost by one vote carried a recognition of race, unlike anything the Democrats had ever before produced, while the majority report, the one adopted, merely deplored anything that leads to "race dissension." It is one thing to advocate; and quite another thing to deploy. The majority of the ragtag newspapers have words of commendation about the nomination of the Coolidge and Dawes ticket. There is a rather wide spread faith in the men who

based on the Klux K K is claimed that it is not just about to enthrone about in the special reference platforma itself. Some of the papers felt that the Klux in the Republican platforma should be called by name. The Klux is in for a terrific fight politically, according to well defined options, and which ever party comes into power, will be called upon to go after the Klux, nationally, as they would the plague. The papers are widely commenting on the Republican convention named two and two committee women. This is regarded generally as a fine step in advance, and the affect this additional power will have upon political fortunes will be watched with unusual interest.
Republican Committee in Wrigley
The Republican National Committee
has moved from the South to the
North section of the Wrigley building,
where its operations for the campa-
gnment will be done on three or more
doors. The major portion of the busi-
ness will be done on the second, third
and fourth floors. Roscoe Conkling
Simmons, who functioned in the
Coolidge organization in the Wrigley
building, "without pay," as h elmself
announces, continues in the other
building on the fourth floor with the
Republican National Committee. And
on the same terms he states,
the campaign must be mobile to the
"campaign in winter." The Republ-
leans have been waiting for the
Democrats to get their business
going in New York, and likewise,
they have been keeping a weather eye on
Cleveland' and the LaFollette Third
Party program. That done, lines will
be tightened for the struggle.
There is an interesting difference of opinion with reference to the suggestion to George Brennan of Chicago, that Attorney Aarl Dickerson be given the nomination for Member of Congress from the First District. Some of the newspapers ridicule the idea, while others call attention to the political strategy of it. Because of Dickerson's standing, and the political power of Brennan, there has been more comment in a short time on this than anything similar, in a long time. In the meantime, friends of Congressman Martin B. Madden, Chairman of the Congressional Committee, have been grinding their loins for a battle royal, one of them said: "We cannot fight Dickerson, but we propose to sell Madden to the public on his record."

S. W. JONES—Exclusive Agency
James of Savannah and Mrs. Mary C. Boose of Mound Bayon, with Ben Davis of Atlanta on the Resolutions Committee, and with practically all of the delegates contests decided in favor of the Negro delegates, a new day seems to have dawned for the Negro, in so far as the Republican party is concerned, provided, of course that these leaders remain loyal to their trust.
"Is Silence Golden?"
The plank of the Republican Convention is notably upset upon the Negro question and the Ku Klux Klan although the party had been importured by many politicians and statesmen to express itself on the social and racial questions. it is to be regretted that the Republican party has lost its courage on moral issues. it is also to be regretted that is fears to express itself in opposition to a secret organization, whose open and avowed purpose is to influence government, for fear of its social strength and hostility. Something may yet be said in the course of the campaign to give assurance to the leaders of law and order and to bring discomfort to religious bigots and tormentors of racial strife.
"Dickerson for Congress"
The Democrats of the First Illinois District are thinking of running Earl B. Dickerson, race man, for Coorgess. Everything happens in America. If this happens, and the leader hopes it will, of course it will be unusual, but there will be nothing wrong about it. Years ago Negroes ought to have been mixing up in all the parties as common sense and race interests, dictated, and Negroes should have been on thearious tickets. We have united on the take of throwing all of our political strength in one way, and today to all appearances we are between the Devil and the Deep Bay Sea.
HYPOCRITES UNCOVERED
If ever the Negro, who says he is a Democrat, were uncovered it is now. Shorn of his garment of hypocrisy, standing naked in his dismony of purpose, we have at last cornered the Torles of our race, they are in New York to find a mail wagon and a job

and to get that job they would bridge

A QUESTION OF POLICY
This action of the two conventions should be food for thought: for every Negro voter in the land. If the Democratic party wages open war against the Ku Klux Klan it is difficult to see why the Negro should not join the ranks of Democracy against the common foe. If the Republican party dares dares not openly challenge the Klan, then it must be that the Klan exercises powerful influence in the party councils.
To the Negro the Klan is anathema. It stands for every kind of intimidation, repression, violence and restriction, and it offers a better his condition. The Klan is our enemy wherever it may be and it is our duty to give battle to the end that this insidious monster shall be crushed.
Democracy offers that chance, we would be truly blind if we did not oorse ranks and help to meet and vanquish these hooded knights of outlawry and murder.

During the plaintiff's testimony the name of James Warren was mentioned as one with whom the defendant was suspected of being unduly intimate. Other names were casually mentioned but it seems the burden fell on Brown and Warreh.
Cross examination of Stevens was short and Attorney Tyler and Stevens locked horns for a minute when testimony about holes being bored in the ceiling came up.
Lieut of Detectives Kimbrough was the next witness, his testimony was only negative.
STAR WITNESS
The next witness was Capt. Gillis whom it developed stood vigil with Mr. Stevens and made observations through the auger holes in the colling. Examination in part.
Q. Do you know the correspondent in this case. E. R. Brown?
A. I do.
Q. State where and under what conditions you first saw him?
A. At the Stevens home when I observed him from the attack in company with Mrs. Stevens.
Q. State what he was doing?
A. He was embracing, carressing,
and kissing Mrs. Stevens.
Q. State what you saw at the same

A. I saw Brown when he arrived.
I saw he and Mrs. Stevens embrace,

He was the confidential secretary of the late Frederick Douglas, and had a very prominent part in the nomination of President Benjamin Harrison. "We met that year quite frequently, both being on the "hustlings" for the Republican candidate.

ships were dropping flowers to the decks and the shipping in the harbor, all in gala attire drowned the booming of the cannon with their sirens. It was a magnificent display of the power of two nations, as the British ships swung to anchor by the side of four Uncle Sam's fighting vessels headed by the California. Those ships represented the power of constituted authority: obedience to law.
Listening to a sermon by a noted divine on Human Progress, we, were prone to wonder if, after all, humanity had made such great strides in the field of conquest. True, he made conquest on the earth, under the sea and in the air, but has he conquered himself. Has he subdued those animal instincts that are the inheritance of the ages? The ages have not made one dent in the make up fundamentally of man. He hated thousands of years ago; he today, hates; he, for thousands of years has lied and cheated; he is the same today. He has warred and murdered, beat out the brains of his brother for the past thousands of years. He is at it today. What does it avail that we conquer the earth the sea and the sky and conquer not ourselves?
Up to this witing the Democrates have failed in their selection of a Standard Bearer. The K. K. K. was the stumbling block which impeded the progrue ssin the first few days. It was a relentless religious war. We cannot agree with some of our contemporaries that the anti K. K. K. fight had anything to do with us. It was a political, religious fight, pure and simple. As much as we would like to believe it was made in the interest of humanity, we are prone to doubt.

Local Millicnaire Merchant
Guest at Bateman Home
R. M. Walker, Merchant, Magnate Honor Guest
Friday evening, June 27th, Mr. and Mrs. L. D. Bateman of 1300 East 94th Street were host and hostess to Messrs. R. M. Walker, T. S. Wilson H. Strange and L. J. Schlomer in their little cottage home at above address. Mr. R. M. Walker is the president and owner of the new and greater Walker's Fifth street store at Fifth and Broadway. A man of extraordinary qualities, whose sympathies are all for the poor, reminiscent always that only a few years ago he was a poor man. In the company of three of his employees, salesmen, he departed from the path heading to his four story mansion in the hills of Hollywood to pay homage to the tiny four room house of his former employed, Mrs. Idell, Abritton, Bateman.
How did they receive him? Well we'll tell the world, they did their best. They coaxed the little cottage into her gayest mood, with flowers and whatnots. The dining room evoked admiration, shaded were the lights overhead with flower-like shades yellow. The King Tut table linen with its yellow border gave setting for the blue bowl of dainty Marguerite. The blue and gold bordered dinnerware, blue glassware and yellow nut cups and favors completed a blue and yellow color scheme.
Then the dinner? Well space is too short to tell. Suffice to say that each course called forth exclamations of surprise and delight from one used to the best in the land and who exclaimed when the hostess told him that more was yet to come after desert. "I am full up to the neck. I couldn't even swallow another thing."
However, the other thing was not to be swallowed for it proved to be a birthday cake with (?) candles burning brightly. You see Mr. Wallker had just had another year added to him and wouldn't let anyone catch the total.
How the millionaire did enjoy the few hours spent in the Bateman home. He complimented them on their splendid start saying that their home reminded him much of his and Mrs. Walker's first home only that the Bateman's had the better start. Adding to the set of china dinner ware and two beautiful rugs he had already given them he brought with him aluminum and Pyrex and took note of all things needed to completely equip the kitchen and told Mr. and Mrs. Bateman if they thought of anything they needed, to let him know. In this manner did he express his appreciation.

BE DISCUSSED
Washington, June 28, 1924—A commission on the racial question is the proposal made in a bill on which the Judiciary/Committee of the U. S. Senate had a hearing in May. The report of the hearing has appeared today. Senator Spencer of Missouri introduced this bill, which was suggested and urged by the National Race Congress. It provides for a commission or three white men or women from the North, three from the South, and three colored men or women to inquire into the unrest among the colored citizens and suggest remedies.
The speakers in favor of it were: Dr. Jesse Lawson of Washington and Attorneys Giles B. Jackson of Richmond and Joseph H. Stewart of Washington. They urged that; the Negroes feel themselves an oppressed minority who need this means of expression and relief; they need an official body to point out what they ought to have in the way of justice and welfare. William O. Wainer of Washington, representing the Press Association, urged that it should not be made a permanent institution with regulatory power.
It is natural and reasonable that one-third of the members on a commission of this kind should be colored. This is ten times as large a share of membership as the race has in any legislature, whether federal, state, or municipal, in the whole country. The proposal made at the National Race Congress was that proportional representation should be allowed, under which any class of people can group themselves together and have as large a share in any congressional delegation as they have in the votes at the polls.
It is not necessary to be a third party man to appreciate the value of this. If one-sixth of the Republican voters of a state are Negroes, which is said to be the case in New Jersey, then one-sixth of the Republican congressmen should be Negroes.
This is unattainable when each congressman is elected in a separate district. It could be done, however, if they were all elected at large, and then divided in proportion to the votes cast by the colored people in comparison with other classes. Several American cities elect their city councils this way. The earliest one was Ashtabula, Ohio; and the largest one is Cleveland, in the same state. It was urged by speakers at the National Race Congress that colored people ought to demand this, and insist upon it. It has been suggested by some that a League of Negro Voters should be formed in the Republican party and in every other party, with an interpartisan federation, and the word given out that the members of these leagues will vote only for those candidates who pledge themselves to help along proportional representation.

Memphis, Tenn., July 4, 1924.—At a mammoth meeting staged here today under the auspices of the Baptist Ministerial Alliance of Memphis, arrangements were perfected for the purchase of the Jane Terrell Memorial Hospital. The outstanding feature of the great rally was the brilliant and magnificent address of Charles Satchchell Morris, Jr., national figure and foremost orator who came here in response to the invitation of fifty ministers representing 25,000 Baptists of this city.
Before a vast throng in the Central Baptist Church, the eloquent young Virginian wore fact upour fact, figure and fancy into one of the most effective, and appealing addresses ever heard in this metropolis of the South. For one hour and fifteen minutes the audience hung on his words. Introduced by the Rev. Dr. T. C. Fuller, pastor of the historic First Baptist Church, mentor of the clergymen of the city and president of the Minisher Alliance as one of the most inspiring, courageous and gifted men

a gospel here that has won for him universal fame and renown. "The Hour Has Chance," a speech made celebrated by the noted spokesman was his subject here. Probably his most impassioned plea was for a new type of Negro leadership. No bitterly denounced the crimging, cowardly, Jim-Grow Race man. The black man demands and the times require an unimpeachable, incorruptible, intelligent leadership", he shouted, and Memphis agreed with him.
An ovation was tendered the gator at the conclusion of his address, when he asserted that the future of the Race man is here in America, the land that is yet to flow with milk and honey, the garden spot of the world, rather than in Africa. "Some foolish agitators who have more bromins in their feet than they have in their head would have us go to Africa, when all other nationalities are trying to come to America", he asserted. The crowd howled that "Burner" as one enthusiastic person called it.
Young Morris was entertained at the Wilburn mansion during his sojourn here. He was the guest of Lieut. George W. Lee and Mr. B. B. Bright on an interesting automobile tour of the city. He was also motored to various points of interest by Prof. Young and Mr. J. B. Martin, leading Memphis pharmacist. A group of admirers took him to Woodside Park Thursday afternoon near here, where more than 10,000 persons acclaimed him at a famous institution there to veritable acres of people.
Saturday Morris departed for little Rock, Arkansas, accompanied by a group of friends in an automobile, where he was scheduled to speak Sunday afternoon. This week Texas is giving him a royal reception while he is enroute to California, Marshall, Houston, Waco and Fort Worth, and Prairie View are included in his itinerary. His first speech on the Pacific coast will be delivered on July 15th at Los Angeles. It is expected that more than 50,000 persons of both races will greet him during his five weeks visit in the Golden West. Morris has proved one of the sensations of the platform. He will speak before some of the most exclusive organizations of the other race. Fifteen appearances will be made in California.

WB SYMPATHIZE WITH PRESIDENT COOLIDGE.
"Great men are the agents of Providence sent to heal, to uplift and to improve the conditions of mankind," said President Coolidge some years ago while delivering a eulogy of Theodore Roosevelt.
Who knows but that his son, who in this hour lies dead after making a heroic fight to survive, did not have in him the essential traits of a great leader? It might have been that those traits could have been so shaped and nourished, so fashioned and disciplined, so perfected by intelligent training, and so strengthened by the advantages of living in a great free country, such as ours, that their possessor might have become some day the embodiment of his own father's ideals, a leader, an agent of Providence.
Heredity, opportunity and favorable environment were on his side, and his possibilities were unlimited. But death is no respecter of periance ETAOIN SHRDLU ETAOIN ETAION or of social position, however high, however imposing, however exalted they may be. It creeps silently into the lives of all. It marks the finis of every personality's performance in this world. It comes dispassionately into every family and there takes its requited toll.
We sympathize with Pesident Coolidge.
His administration has been marked by so large a measure of misfortune, by insult and threat and irrational criticism, that it is really remarkable to see him competently execute as he has the affairs of the nation. It is his fortitude, his philosophic detachment, and modest reserve that will soon make for the recreation of contentment and strength, which must have been sapped from his at the very disclosures of his son's death. It is this fortitude, this philosophic detachment and modest reserve, coupled with his expert knowledge of America's needs and of the necessity of a continued expression of the people's will, that will win for him a great victory yet far off, but still a victory foreordained to console him in his loss.
HOLD MORALS CHEAP, DOES JURY IN JUDGE KIETCH'S COURT.
A shrewed lawyer is Leroy Barnett when he knows just what strings to play to whip saw a jury in Judge Kietch's Court. We have no criticism of the Court, of Mr. Barnett, nor do we criticise the District Attorney for no counsel worked harder for a conviction than the tactful and eloquent Captain Helm on the occasion referred to by this article. It was a serious case, an instance when mothe's duty to child went out to an extraordinary degree to protect that child. An attempt to assault by a strong and amorous human being had been made, the mother cried for justice to assert itself and she would not take the law in her own hands and the case was submitted, to the utter surprise of all who heard the case the jury returned a verdict of not guilty.
We must explain this jury was one of all white men and women, called to pass on a moral criminal case in which all the principals were colored. There were 8 women and 4 men. To our mind this jury held morals cheap, they could not have given them any consideration, they needed no evidence just simply turned the man loose. They failed absolutely to give this young and innocent girl the protection which society demands and turned down her plea for justice in favor of the accused and proven attack. The danger of this kind of jury is that men and women will feel that to procure justice they must take the law into their own hands.
CHARLES S. BLODGETT.
The California Eagle believes in the very practical decision of the New Negro. If per chance you have bouquets to pass—pass them now, for their beauty I might see, / and fragrance smell, while I am yet alive. We want Charles S. Blodgett of this State, County and City, while he lives to be cognizant of the fact that this paper, speaking for thousands, whose acquiescence we guarantee, in the declaration which we are about to make and that is the fact that his unselfish devotion for his people he has lighted the path of progress for greater things than have ever been dreamed of before.
The $10,000.00 gift of Mr. Blodgett has turned things around in this section. Where the Negro had been looked upon in the past as only a rift in the Sunlight of civilization and the act of Chas. S. Blodgett dispels the thought and has made a new setting for the Negro in the estimation of the captains of industry and wealth of our white people. They knew that he would give his moral support, eloquence and song but thought, money he would or could not give. But at this moment out stepped our Hero Mr. Blodgett and asked of the General Secretary of the Central Y. M. C. A. Mr. Secretary, have all restrictions of any sort against my people enjoying the benefits of vocational and other instructions at our Central Building been moved? The General Secretary answered, They have; and handed him the decision voted by the Board in black and white. Then Blodgett replied: This being so I pledge you here and now $10,000.00. This act by this black man set the blaze of fire a going which would not be put out until the amount asked for had been pledged. It acted alike upon black and white. It was glorious, it was real sacrifice; it was superb and grand, and for these reasons alone, do we write of Chas. S. Blodgett. We appreciate him for his worth and his fact that he has proven worthy of any responsibility placed upon him and were he as rich as Solomon of old he has the riches with honor and credit to himself and all who know him. And along with the indomitable Malones, of

THE REPUBLICAN PARTY AND COLORED AMERICA
By MELVIN J. CHISUM, Field Secretary
The National Negro Press Association
NUMBER TWO
PARTY CUSTOM AND THE LAW
Washington, D. C. July 8th—The greatness of the Republican party was never more beautifully displayed than it was at the Cleveland convention. Right-headed generalship directed that the old ship be returned to the safe moorings of the old days. There are certain fundamental principles of political-party management and these were faithfully followed by those in charge.
There was no job of catering to any of the various mongrel breeds of Republicans, either in the pre-convention contests or during the regular convention. In Congressman Burton's keynote speech, that logician, that eminent statesman declared unequivocally in favor of strict party rule by whatever party was in control of the government and called on the people of America to elect only real, genuine Republicans on the Republican side, and the writer quotes Congressman Burton: "The word 'Republican' is not more name; it is not a label which any man can wear; it is not a cloak for more vagaries. The strength and usefulness of the Republican party must depend on the maintenance of enduring principles, in the advocacy of which triumph can only be secured by party solidarity and an organization whose members unite in closed formation to do battle to EVERY foe."
Much of the blame which is visited upon Republicans in the present Congress deserved because on many major questions their party has not commanded the attention, but is not for a minute forget the importance of a Republican majority in the next Congress, made up of members TRIED and TRUE, who will stand united.
"With sore disappointment as one whose public service has been in a legislative position, truth compels me to say that by far the greater share of our citizenship looks to President Coolidge rather than to Congress for leadership."
AMERICAN PEOPLE BELIEVE IN CALVIN COOLIDGE
"The people—and all the people—have confidence in Callvin Coolidge. It is a time when there is a hunger for simple, robust virtues, for a leadership which shall be based on no cheap or selfish motives. In the great array of rulers, kings and prime ministers intrusted with power there is none who can surpass him in honesty of purpose, in courage, or in high devotion to the welfare of his country".
"As a candidate for the presidency, and this in the midst of temptations strove to convince by which the angels fell, he has shown no truckling, no scheming for vengeance, that the stone calmly and steadily on his way, unaffected by the lure of expeditionary or the threat of the thunderous applause lasting for several minutes which greeted the above statements, came from very section of the immense hall proved that these sentiments were shared by all in attendance here."

"The White Elephant"
Or Get Together
Real Happenings in San Francisco
More than two hundred years ago our Fore Fathers were more united in spirit and in truth than the modern intellectual of today.
About the year of 1620 the first school was established in Virginia for Colored and Indians. (Negro Year Book) education has been accepted and accomplished by a large majority of people of African descent. And to a degree the higher forms of education have been accomplished.
We have our artists of different types, scientists, inventors of no common character, but of importance to the state and country. A Mr. Shelby E. Davidson, ashington, D. C. P. O. called in an interview.
Their sole purpose was to make every effort imaginable for the liberation of the future colored generation from bondage. We mean bondage in more ways than one. The first was economical and political, the most important is or was, the domination over the vast majority in their free thinking. It is accomplished in such a clever way until we go right ahead accepting, though we see and realize to the fullest extent the purpose of the domineer. The monroe doctrine was enacted by white fore fathers for the protection of the Western Hemisphere. Congressmen are loyal to this day in support of that Doctrine. Our fore suffered, prayed, fought, and died that they have liberty free from domination of the enemy. Domination is prejudice created and ourselves by the invisible "White Elephant." We all know should we stop to think what this means on the Negro Race as long as the monster dominates.
* If education is limited to this narrow way of thinking and acting, then education is a blot ministerer.

Inventor, his attention was to dispose of paper coming from machines operated for tobuleting and totalizing the quarterly accounts which were regularly submitted by the P. M.'s of the country. He invented a rewiring device which served as an attachment for automatically taking up the paper as it issued from the machines, and adopted it for use again on the reverse side, thus affecting a very considerable economy of time and material. His main invention was a novel attachment for adding machines which was designed to automatically include the government fee as well as the amount sent when to talking the money orders in the reports submitted by the Post masters the government granted him patents on both inventions. The largest number of patents issued was Elias McCoy of Detroit Michigan He had to his credit 81 patents from 1872 to 1917 (year beow). Other forms of higher education have been mastered by the composers and singers have done their share.

1111 E. Adams Street Los Angeles, Calif.
About the year of 1898 marked the starting point of the so called "Rag-Time" a good reason rag time made such a hit the public was tired of so much monotonic mother, sister, sentimental songs, "rag time", offers unique rhythms curious groupings of words and melodies which gave the seat of unexpectedness. Jass music also is said to have originated in New Orleans in the U. S. and that its origin can be traced to the West Indies and probably to Africa. I point out these facts to show that we should be well enough versed in higher culture and probably to the "anglantic" who stalks before the races and keeps it divided as two distinct races. When two armies are about to be in combat, each general so files his own soldiers and creates as much envy against the opposing army until when they, the soldiers, clash they do at each other in a desperate struggle to destroy.
In the case of our two largest organizations the N. A. C. P. and the U. N. I. A. generalized by two antagonistic leaders, antagonizing their armies of followers bringing about discord between the largest organized efforts in the world. WKho are to blame? Not the army of people but the generals. This army combined could make the whole world say army of people but the generals. This army combined could make the whole world say "hark!" with the proper leadership. What is twelve million people compared to the whole Russian nation that generalized by the most wonderful general the world has ever known. Lenin is the most beautiful things he has been able to accomplish since his death, than Napoleon. France's one time idol. It is said he is the most outstanding man in the world that has realized his ambitions. Many including our late Ex-president Woodrow Wilson advocated high ideals but never realized them to be put in practice.
Had not Mr. Lenin of Russia been properly supported and co-operated with ingeneral he could not have accomplished his enormous task. So it is with us today, our leaders co-operate and "get together", stop snarling, blaspheming each other and find some plan of co-operation, then our leadership is fought with disaffection.
A regrettable thing came to my observation a few days ago; an old man of seventy years walking the streets seemingly in loneliness and anxious to talk to anyone who has the time to take up with him, says he is married to a white woman and has the distinction of never having set foot in a colored person's house in fifty years and that they are no good, he never got anything from them, he has several thousand dollars in the bank and when he dies he wants all to go back to the white folks where he got it. Not realizing that the million of slaves who toiled or their master centuries, the bourgeois dumb Burtis is taking this country what it is today, and who was only compensated at the dumb brute, food and shelter and the lash. His ancestors have paid the price and instead of giving back what he has earned he should be receiving an indemnity for what our forefathers have suffered.
Before the emancipation of slavery every man or woman (colored) who was lucky enough to rise from the shackles of slavery did what they could in the way of aging. The less man was able to do that, their race at heart and there was a tie of brotherhood manifested both by prayer and deeds.
If the sincere, friendly and human white people that have contributed so generously for the uplift of the down trodden and helpless colored race should have as selfish and egotistical as the aged man whom I have mentioned, there would not have been the advancement realized by the race. In 1795 the days when Negroes were considered ignorant and uneducated and almost always afraid to read or write a man by the name of Stephen-Smith a Negro lumber merchant and oyster dealer of Columbia afi Philadelphia. Pa., founded the home for aged and infirm colored persons at Philadelphia. He gave for the establishment $150,000, and also donated the ground for the Mount Olive Cemetery for colored people which joined the home. Mary E. Shaw, colored woman of N. Y. left, legacy of $38,000 to Tuskegee Institute. Thadius Kochuszka white Polish general who assisted the American colonies in their fight for independence in their country. America made a will in which he set aside a fund amounting to $16000 to be devoted to the education of Negroes. Yet in this age of civilization, education and enlightenment a man carms a few thousand dollars and says he will give it back to
the white folks, for his lack of intelligence, discriminates against his own race. Dr. Dubois in his article, "The Black Man and the Wounded World," says: A new propaganda has been inaugurated, bases itself mainly on race and color. If we, the colored race practice this erroneous propaganda among ourselves, what can we expect from the other race?
Thomas Lafon, Negro philanthropist of New Orleans, La., was born free in that city December 28th, 1810, was first a school teacher and then he ran a small dry goods store, here he accumulated a little money which he loaned at advantageous rates, at this he became wealthy. He died December 22nd, 1853 leaving an estate appraised at $413,000 the bulk of which was divided among various charitable and educational institutions of that city.
Has modern education and the so-called "White Elephant" turned us from our obligations?
Our churches when first organized by our fathers back in the 18th century were Colored Baptist Churches African American, an Methodist African Epicopal and so on. We have ceased to be Africans, we are Christian Science or something that is not African.
The Chinese are still Chinese and the same can be said of the Japanese or any foreigner but we are scattered any place and they won't come out plain and bar us. "Get Together."
I had an occasion to go in a book concern in this city the attendant-a lady of a religious character and in intelligent make up approached me and began asking questions concerning the different colored churches. To my surprise she was as familiar with the churches, different congregations pastors, bishops and all about them as most any member could have been. She stated you all have some brilliant speakers, calling the pastors by name, and knew some of the minsters that had presided years ago. She also said, "You all have remarkably nice churches situated in such convenient districts." But some of the colored people attend the white churches." I came away thinking, is it not a fact that out of the color population all room for four times the membership) that she must have thought it looked like they would attend their own. "Get Together." What really impressed me most was that she seemed to drive home the FACT that we have a sufficient number of churches for the colored population of this city and it looked as though we, (some of us) are spending our precious time and money in the white churches where it is not needed, (but not refused).
This brings to my mind an old pioneer of San Francisco, (colored) Mr. Dennis, father of Mrs. Benson, mother of Mrs. Marguerite Evans, a popular young woman who gained popularity as a writer and essayist, also her readings and recitals on the stage in the bay cities. Mrs. Benson also has a son, Mr. Bee Benso nand a deceased daughter. Mrs. Evans also dled a short film that she wrote and fanat. This narrative was his eleven o'clock meeting at the Third Baptist Church on one Sunday morning by Mrs. Benson herself;
Mr. Dennis came to this city nearly seventy-five years ago, or he lived in this city nearly seventy-five years, he did not know of any prejudice or segregation as exist today. He joined the West Side Christian Church, that was before there were enough of his own race to organize a church. In the early days there were different types of Christians than of today, and they were not only if you confessed in the Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ you were taken in and there was no more to it. The years passed and Mr. Dennis a faithful member of his church to the end, more than a half a century.
The old generation of Christians died as did Mr. Dennis, and a new generation came on with its new ideas. Mr. Dennis had been going to the same house of worship so long until it seemed like home to him. When he raised a family, however, his children and grandchildren being of a new generation came in contact with the chocolate and naturally took them to the school. Mr. Dennis took some of his grandchildren to his church to which they became attached, the time came when the old man died, the little children wanted to keep going where grandpa had carried them for the sake of grandpa and for the love and respect for him. One Sunday morning the little ones went to Sunday School as usual but in the hallway the teacher met them and asked them to wait until the waited and waited until Sunday school came back to turn out, the older one ran home and related the story to his grandma, she hurried down to see why they had been treated in such a way. She ask
GRAND JURISDICTION ed the teacher and he said it was the instructions of the Superintendent. On going to the Superintendent, he hold her that it was a white Sunday School and they didn't want any colored children. She told him her father had supported that church over 50 years and it was an outrage to do a thing like that. The poor woman was so badly hurt she got up in a congregation to warn her people against sticking around where they were not wanted.
"Get Together" Mrs. Benson seems to have been visited by fate in more than one instance. When her husband died from heart failure some time ago her son phoned to the undertaker, (about three blocks from their home in the same neighborhood where they have been living for nearly forty years, and known by everyone and knew all the old settlers, and who said, supposedly by all her friends) when the undertaker arrived at the house her son opened the door, he seemed a little surprised on finding them colored people. He surveyed the surroundings and asked if they wouldn't just as soon let the body remain in the house after he was taken care of. Mrs. Benson said that children were not used to being around dead people and she thought it best to remove the body to the undertakers.
derkert Well" he said, "Mrs. Benson I only part have no objections but this establishment does a great deal of business with the Catholics and they would object to having a colored body in the undertakers."

Her son went to the phone to call
a schelometer who was very chummy
with him so it always seemed. "Hello
Ed!" "Why, hello Bee!" is that you?
"Yes, my father died a couple of
hours ago." "What! I just saw him
on the street about three hours ago.
"Were you, but he had heart failure
and dropped dead at such and such a
time?" said Bee, "and I would like
you to come over and take charge
of the remains." "I will let you know
in an hour" and hung up without giving
Bee a chance to say anything
more. Bee almost fell from the phone,
so dumbfounded from the thoughts of
them being so well known in the
neighborhood, such an old resident
and then to be turned down in the
hour of death.
"Will we have to send away across the Bay for Hudson and Butler, our own undertaker? I hate to send him so far."
Again after recovering composure he tried the undertaker on Geary and Deviado no Ns. and he came right over, though he feared to say what color they were. As it happened, he was only too willing to render any service he could. Mrs. Benson said him if he has any objection carrying the body to the undertakers and he asked why she should such a question, and the story of the two previous undertakers and he said it was a shame, we are under no such obligation. It was just their own individual prejudice. "Get together."
An institution run in San Francisco has colored people employed to run the kitchen and dining room, feeding a large number of employees. It was formerly entirely under the supervision of colored, the color question among the colored employees was such that of continued disagreement and the result was the management hired a white Superintendent to control them.
Another large store employed a large group of colored girls, the management preferred as near, all of a light complexion, as this seemed to create a feeling of superiority among the different hues, there was a great deal of dissidence when the manager decided to segregate the whole colored crew from the white eating room they discovered that they were all colored. "Got together".

TWO LOSES IN ROW FOR GIANTS
TWO LOSES IN ROW FOR GIANTS
The Carroll Giants lost their second straight double header to the Chanslor-Canfield Midway Oil Co. team by the one sided score of 15 to 3.
The game was called at the end of seventh inning to allow the second game to start and the Giant outfielders to get their breath.
The Giants finished Friday's game in the air and they stayed there all the first game Sunday. They took every thing that a team shouldn't do including running with the bases backwards. Everybody tried to play outfield but the bat boy and Manager Goodwin wasted three pitchers during the seven innings. Charles Jackson, Jay Johnson and Hudspeth. Chas Jackson gets credit for the loss.
CLOSE BATTLE IN EASTERN LEAGUE
Philadelphia, Pa., July 9.—(By The Associated Negro Press). Lincoln Giants of the Eastern Colored Baseball League, and the Hillidales are tied with the New Yorkers for first place. For the brief period of three days, Hillidale led by reason of wins over the Baltimore Black Sox, 9 to 7, and Brooklyn Giants, 4 to 2. Both games were played at Hillidale park, and in the meantime the Lincoln Giants were idle. Hillidale then broke even with the Baltimore Black Sox while the BaltimoreBlack Sex while the Lincoln Giants again sped into the lead. The Lincoln Giants have lost the services of both catfellers, Gee and Burnett, who were injured in an auto accident. The misfortune will hurt the Lincoln Giants.
The latest standing of the clubs is as follows:
Lincoln Giants ..... 18 9 .667
Lincoln Giants ..... 18 9 .667
Baltimore Black Sox ..... 11 10 .524
Bacarach Giants ..... 12 12 .500
Harrisburg Giants ..... 7 7 .500
Washington Potomacs ..... 5 6 .445
Cuban Stars ..... 8 11 .814
After losing the first game of Sun'-day's double header Manager Louise Goodwin sent the veteran Footeo to the mound for the Giants and Footeo with a patched up outfield behind him that let almost every batted ball go for a hit, brought the Giants home a winner. The final score was 7-5. Bad base running and a couple of lapses on the part of Footeo himself kept the Giants on the ragged edge of defeat all afternoon. The 'Pacific Electrics', the Giants' Opponents, had men on bases in every inning, but the master was equal to the occasion and each time pulled himself out of the rack. In the first inning with no one out and three men on bases, Footeo retired the next two batters on strikes and tagged the third man out on the first base line.
Other than Footes classy work on the mound Kinchess's hitting was a big factor in the Giants' victory. Kinchen hits the ball on the nose and is welcome addition to the Giants' infield.

EL SEGUNDO
El Segundo broke the Giants winning streak and handed them their first defeat of the season at Goodyear Park on July 4th. The score was 9-2. Always a formidable club the El Segundo bunch were no exception to the rule last Friday. Playing straight baseball and working like a machine the Standard Ollers let the Giants beat themselves.
It was the fourth of July and the Giants celebrated by blowing up.
It looked like a real game to start when both clubs were retired in order in the first inning. In the first half of the second El Segundo went back to the bench one, two three but Butcher batting first, for the Giants tripped to right center. It was a sal bit. Killingsworth next up was real. Killingsworth was safe on an error and while then thrown out at second Butcher stood on third. Kinchen was new short stop from Oakland came to bat for for the first time and doubled scoring Butcher. After Jackson's out, Kyle's infield hit scored Kinchen. That ended the Giant's scoring for the day although they had men on bases almost every inning.

They added 2 more runs in the seventh on a double a single and two Giant errors. Two more runs came in the eighth on 2 hits and 2 errors.

Kansas City, Mo., July 6th, 1924—
The Kansas City Monarchs, Negro
National League Champions, won their
third consecutive series from Rube
Foster's American Giants in a series
just completed Sunday. The Monarchs
won three out of five games. To data
the Monarchs have won 9 out of 13
games played this year.
FIRST GAME TO MONARCHS
Near Riota Mark 7 to 5 Triumph Over
Chicago American Giants Two narrowly averted 'free for alls' accompanied the Monarchs' 7 to 5 to torp over "Rube" Foster's Chicago American Giants is the first game of the series at Muehlebach Field yesterday.
The trouble started in the fourth inning when, Malcher, plunging toward the home plate, was tagged rather roughly by Duncan. Rogan and Hewitt were banished and the players finally sent back into the field. Again in the sixth, Hawkins was banished from the game as another hetated argument arose over a decision.
Three Chicago harriers were used, the Monarchs using the same number. Only Harney was effective against the Monarchs, while the going became too rough for C. Bell at the end of the eighth. Drake being sent in to relieve him.
The score by innings:
Innings ..... 000 103 010—5
American Giants ..... 042 100 00x—7
Monarchs ..... FOR
EVEN BREAK FOR MONA.
After Losing Morning Game, 5 to 12.
American Giants, Win, 9 to 7
The Monarchs and Chicago American Giants made it an even break in yesterday's games, the Monarchs winning the morning game, 12 to 5, and the visitors trouncing the home club, 9 to 7, in the afternoon contest. The defeat of the Monarchs was the second in nineteen contests on the home lot. About eight thousand fans saw the afternoon contest.
Owens, who hurled for the visitors in the morning game, was hit freely, while W. Bell was fairly effective in the pinches.
In the afternoon game the Chicago club came from behind, staging rallies in the eighth and ninth innings, which netted two runs each. Padrone was hit hard by the Monarchs, Harney finishing on the mound for the Foster club and doing a good job of it.
Morris was unable to remain the full route on the rubber, being relieved by Mendez, who also was hit hard.

FOURTH GAME TO MONARCHS
After Neck and Neck batting American
Glants Were Defeated, 2 to 1
It took every base hit the Monarchs could muster to stow away yesterday's game with "Rube" Foster's
Chicago American Giants, the Monarchs wining 2 to 1. For seven innings of scoreless batting both clubs were unable to get a man across the plate, the home club nosing out a visitor by virtue of an early lead, runs having been scored in the first and second innings.
Both Drake and Trepdwell were in superb form, the former allowing the visitors only five scattered hits, while the eight blows of the Monarchs were far from being bunched. After scoring in the first inning the Chicago club found Drake a continuous puzzle. A crowd of about 1,600 saw the game, which was the best played content of the home season thus far. Several times times spectators were brought to their feet by near miraculous catches of Gardner, Chicago center fielder.
The score by innings:
American Giants ..... 100 000 000—1
Morganchs ..... 119 000 000—2
Treadwell, Hines, Drake, Duncan.
A Late Rally Gave Chicago American
Giants a 13 to 11 Victory
"Rube" Foster's Chicago American
Giants staged a ninth inning rally,
which netted seven runs, in the final
game of the series at Muehlebach
Field yesterday, winning 13 to 11. A
crowd of eight thousand saw the
game.
With the game apparently safely
stowed away, the Monarchs went into
the ninth inning only to be greeted
by a bombardment of base hits and
a volley of runs, which was too great
for them to overcome in their half
of the last inning. Harney and Owens
are hit freely by the Monarchs, while
Jon, up until the eighth inning,
visitors well at bay most of
was won, Mann
the time.
