The last two weeks has almost wrought a revolution with the members of the Illinois State Commission, for within that time the headquarters have been removed from the Institutional church, the commissioners have been fighting and wrangling among themselves like so many cats and biting mad dogs, and to top it all off, last Thursday Mrs. Susan Lawrence Jorgen-Dahl, after becoming utterly and thoroughly disgusted with the Rev. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph.D. D.D., the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann and their "Nigger" mess, stepped down and out as one of the commissioners and as vice chairman of the Illinois State Commission. The Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann no doubt threw his books into her and touched her up in good shape, for she was wrapped up in him and thought that he was just too cute for anything. She felt highly honored to roll around the streets of Springfield in her fine auto with the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann sitting at her side. He took greatly delight in loudly boasting of the fact that he had her under his thumb and that he could easily control her, for it is said that "at one time during the early --- part of 1913 that Mrs. Jorgen-Dahl had started on a pleasure trip to California, that she had gotten as far west as Denver, Colo., that at that point she received a telegram from the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann commanding her to hot-foot it back to Springfield at once; that within a few hours from that time she was again by his unmanly side in the city where she is so much beloved and held in the highest esteem by all of its citizens. Wednesday, June 11, 1913, the writer was in Springfield where he attended several meetings held by the Colored citizens prior to the convening of the committee on appropriations which he addressed that same afternoon in favor of appropriating twenty-five thousand dollars to enable the Colored people in this state to celebrate their freedom in 1915. Mrs. Jorgen-Dahl and her late husband attended the meeting of the Colored citizens which was held in one of the small committee rooms on the third floor of the state house, and she was among the first speakers to raise her voice in favor of the acts and conduct in every way of the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann, and at the conclusion of her remarks, in a very CHICAGO, JULY 25, 1914 ANCE JORGER justed with Ph. D. D. D.

DR. A. J. CAREY, HE HON.

Then and there we urged Mrs. Jorgen-Dahl to break or lay away from the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann and his pal the Rev. Horch Archibald Ca- ```markdown ``` n-Dahl, Be in the Rev D., the Hon Mess, Step Vice-Chairman Warned Her sentatives of th rey, Ph.D. D.D., but she thought she was all-wise and she simply looked upon us with scorn and contempt and she continued to greatly assist to force or rain them down the mouths of the highly respectable Colored people throughout the state of Illinois, and at last she was finally forced to run away from them and their "Nigger" mess. Now that Mrs. Jorgen-Dahl has severed her connections with the State Commission, let Governor Edward F. Dunne select Mrs. William Emanuel, Mrs. Daniel H. Williams, Mrs. Henry Jones, Mrs. A. Wilberforce Williams, Mrs. Elizabeth Lindsay Davis, Mrs. Carrie Warner, Mrs. Dan M. Jackson, Mrs. Elijah H. Johnson or any other worthy and intelligent property-owning Afro-American woman to succeed her. Last Friday evening Governor Edward F. Dunne blew into town from Springfield, Illinois and one of his first official acts after arriving in this city was to hold a secret conference with his political master, the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph.D. D.D., at the Chicago Beach Hotel, and some say that the greatest political preacher and fourfusher of the age, with many big tears in his eyes, urged Governor Dunne to continue to stand by him and not permit him to fall into the arms of his very best friend, Julius F. Taylor. In one of his poorly written articles which appeared in the columns of the no idea last Saturday, the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph.D. D.D., loudly praised himself. In his long-winded, meaningless article he branded some of his present warm associates as jail birds. Let us call the roll of honor of his active lieutenants and his grand field marshals at Springfield in June, 1913, the time the $25,000 appropriation was made to enable the Colored people in this state to celebrate their freedom in 1915. On that memorable occasion his lieutenants were the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann, the Hon. James T. Brewington, the Hon. James Hale Porter and the Hon. Archibald N. Fields. So far we are unable to ascertain that there is anything in the public records to show that either one of these eminent statesmen have ever paid one dollar in any kind of taxes within the state of Illinois. It might be pleasant reading to state that the night that Dr. Hall was elected president of the Negro Business League of this city that the following five great captains of industry rallied to the support of the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph.D. D.D. and greatly assisted him to unhose his friend, Sandy W. Trice: The Hons. James Hale Porter, Archibald N. Fields, Thomas Wallace Swann, James T. Brewington and J. S. Davis; and Col. Davis states, but we do not believe it, that on that same night that his friend Dr. Carey blew in $17 for Old Tom Taylor fire or holy water in the rear end of James Tracy's establishment on State street near 31st street. As stated before in these columns that on Wednesday, June 11, 1913, while the writer was standing in the HON. JOHN E. TRAEGER One of the most popular and prominent German-American citizens in Chicago, up-to-date business man, vice-president of the Stockmen's Trust and Savings Bank and democratic candidate for sheriff of Cook County. rotunda of the state house at Springfield, Ill., the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph.D. D.D., informed us to the effect that "the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann was dishonest through and through to the backbone; that he beat him out of one hundred dollars which he blew in for wine and women; that he had greatly lowered his ministerial standing in Chicago," but in spite of this fact Col Swann served Rev. Dr. A. J. Carey as his private secretary and for some time he was the clerk of Bethel and the Institutional church and he had the distinguished honor of poorly reading all the church notices. That same Wednesday, June 11, 1913, Rev. Dr. A. J. Carey, William H. Clark and Julius F. Taylor were selected as a committee of three to wait on Governor Edward F. Dunne and protest to him against permitting the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann to be officially connected with the forthcoming celebration, but in spite of this fact and many other cold facts of the same kind, at the first meeting of the state commission at Springfield, Ill., the first part of July, 1913, the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph.D. D.D., nominated his friend Swann for secretary of the Illinois State Commission and heartily moved that he should Butterly and Archibald was Wallace and Out as a ne Illinois ay Away from an Race ent German-American citizens in Chicago ident of the Stockmen's Trust and Save for sheriff of Cook County. receive three thousand and five hundred dollars a year for his services. In his article in the no Idea last Saturday the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph.D. D.D., after much patting of himself on the back states that the seven thousand eight hundred twenty-seven dollars and seven cents has been wisely and judiciously expended. That may be true from his standpoint, but if any one will take the trouble to re-read the itemized statement from the auditor of the state of Illinois which appeared in these columns June 27th, they will find that from November 1, 1913, to June 12, 1914, that three thousand and two hundred twenty-three dollars and eighty-five cents of that money rolled into the pockets of the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson all hog Carey, Ph.D. D.D., his daughter, Miss Annabel Carey, the Hon. Thomas Wallace Swann, the Hon. James Hale Porter and the Institutional church, which is more than 40 per cent of all the money expended to date. In the near future it may dawn upon the cunning mind of the Rev. Hon. Archibald Jackson Carey, Ph.D. D.D., that he is engaged in swinging a double-edged sharp sword, and if he is not very careful it may separate his own head from his well shaped body. No. 44 ‘ 5 : Ae.

SOLDIER IN THE PULPIT AT THE BEREAN BAPTIST CHURCH Berean Baptist church might aptly be termed the church militant with a soldier in the pulpit and a soldier in the SS. superintendent’s chair we are not surprised at the mili- tary aspect of their annual field day ‘at Washington Park last Saturday. ‘The Sunday School two hundred strong were under marching orders at 9:30 a, m. from the chureh (barracks) with the Berean banner and a large ‘American flag waving in the breeze. ‘At 55th boulevard they were met by another detachment, and by noon it is estimated there were over five hun- dred people on the grounds just south- west of the boat house at Washington Park. Young and old feasted on the good things provided for all, and the superintendent, Captain Cortez Brad- shaw, and his assistant adjutant, Har- rison H. Ferrell, were everywhere in evidence in fall uniform with brass letters on their caps proclaiming their rank, Every teacher wore a badge ‘and every child their class colors, from the eradle roll up. The twenty gallons of ice cream was soon disposed of by visitors and friends, and all made ready for the prizes prepared for prowess in running, jumpiag, ete. Our genial pastor chaplain W. 8. Braddan was so inspired that he won several races. And all finally marched home a tired but happy band. But we must not forget the suffra- gettes; they were as usual in evi- dence. Miss Laura White, chief of the primary staff, with Miss Myrtle Davis and Margaret Bonds and others upheld their banner, and if is a sig- nificant fact that most of our younger teachers have been trained in this 8.

Choice refresh- ments were served. About fifty ladies and gents were present, including Mrs. N. Clark Smith, of Wichita, Kansas, and Mrs. Monroe, of Austin, Texas, mother of Mrs. E. Ambrose Bunn, 419 East 33rd street. ‘A goodly sum was realized to add to the $100 which Mrs. Arrant has promised to raise for the association ATTORNEY AUGUSTUS L. WIL LIAMS SECURED HIS $300. Attorney A. L. Williams, with offices at 184 W. Washington street, and who is specializing in personal injury law, was awarded a verdict of three hun- dred dollars ($300) attorney’s fees un- der the attorney’s lien law act, on Wednesday before Judge Heard of the Cireuit Court of Cook county. From information obtained from Mr. Wil- liams, it appears that in 1912 a Colored lady by name of Mrs. Mary E. Weak- ley was injured by one of the Chicago City Ry. cars, At the time of the in- jury tle company offered the sum of twenty-five dollars ($25) in settlement of her claim against it. This she re- fused to aceept and afterwards she se- cured Mr. Williams for her attorney and he brought suit in the Cireuit Court, which suit was pending fom said time up to the 19th day of June, nearing trial. The company obtained the services of Dr. Anna B. Sebultz to get through a settlement with Mrs. Wheatley. On the said day she ear ried Mrs, Wheatley to the office of the company where she was induced to settle her case for three hundred dol- lars ($300). Mr. Williams got on to the wind of this settlement, and through his client, Mrs. Weakley, was assured that a settlement was made. He immediately went to tile office of the company and demanded the sum of three hundred dollars ($300) as his fees in the ease, to which the company refused. Mr. Williams afterwards filed an intervening petition in the said case and on Wednesday last it was heard by the court before whom the case was pending. After a heated argument on both sides, and a production of docu- mentary evidence before the court, it was decided by said court that Mr. Williams was entitled to three hundred dollars ($300), the same as his client got in settlement.

Plans for the great bazaar and ««eireus’? which the young people are planning to give on August 14 and 15 for the benefit of the local vigilance office of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People ‘are moving on at a rate almost too rapid for the press to keep up with them. ‘And they are moving, too, amid con- siderable mystery. It is said that there never was an affair gotten up before of such a magnitude with so little individual publicity. The workers have thus far kept their names out of the papers and even the twenty-five organizations which have enlisted for the affair have sunk their differences and their pet ambitions in the common cause. The bazaar is designed to prove that the Colored people are ‘aroused to their local condition and do not intend to let anybody else do their fighting for them. They will not wait for millionaires to raise their war fund for them. They will raise it them selves and they intend to be jolly about it too. ‘The only conerete fact which has leaked out about the bazaar is that it will be held at 36th plage and Wabash avenue. A large tent has been secured and the star attractions will be dis played within. The admission fee wil be only ten or fifteen cents and it will entitle the visitor to an unlimited stay and the enjoyment of the best colored talent there is in Chicago. Music and entertainment—some of it very bizarre indeed—will be offered. And there wil be an unlitimed supply of good thing to eat and of bargains—real bargains not fake ones.

Our opinions cost us nothing so long as we keep them to ourselves. ‘Tact is made up in equal parts of sflence, deafness and blindness. Nearly every man has in mind s fortune that he might have made. Whatever else you do, do not let Jealousy get a foothold in your home. Our best friends are liable to become forgetful when we are down and out. It is not always the man or woman who needs a vacation most that gets It. When a woman insists on having ber own way her husband calls it nagging. We are nev2r too old to learn some- thing that will never be of value tous. While waiting for something to turn up you are more than likely to be turn- ef Gown. Some people never break their good resolutions simply because they never make any. Haniship comes when the fire of genius isn't hot enough to keep the pot boiling. You may soon buy all the fine steel engravings of Ben Franklin you want at $100 apiece. In Russia tt is the would be male voter that seems to be causing most of the trouble. Premier Asquith might be able to ob- tain subtle revenge by giving a dinner in Sylvia's honor. Try to remember the nice things you hear about your friends and forget the disagreeable ones. ‘The man who thinks that a woman can be “won” with gifts deserves to win one of that kind. It is about as well to rush where angels fear to promenade as to sit down and go to seed. Memory 1s wisely so constituted that it loses many things, else it would be ‘a chamber of borrors. Sparks have begun to fy between the United States and Germany, bat they are only wireless sparks. A German aviator indulged in a shave while aloft. But many an ama- teur flier has had a closer shave.

Bite off more than you can chew—and chew it. Enthusiasm is to a man what powder is to a bullet. Why not pass a law requiring the muzzling of mosquitoes? Love may be blind, but the girl's small brother sees things. Debt is a paradox. The faster we run in the more we get behind. Temporary failure makes the sweets of success all the more enjoyable. Few men get far enough up the ladder of fame to make them dizzy. No really big man allows his head to outgrow the rest of his anatomy. The way never to accomplish anything is to take everybody's advice. On the road to success it is not every man who knows how to change cars. To err is human, and to discover the errors of the other fellow is natural. No man should complain of his wife's biscuits if he fails to provide the dough. Don't tell people that you are as good as they are; show them that you are better. Some one has said that no one ever attained his one great ambition, and we believe it. Too many people can remember names and faces much easier than they can debts. There would be a fortune in it for any inventor who could patent a device for making both ends meet. The chief trouble about the modern temptations is that they cost more than the victims are able to pay. A woman may not always be a close observer; but, on the other hand, she is always a clothes observer. Income tax disappointments recall the fact that the man who insists on being shy is a nuisance in any game. John Bull is still a trifle dazed in his political affairs, but in the field of athletics he has recovered his poise. Colonel Sellers would never be able to dispose of worthless stock if it were not for the gullibility of Colonel Buyers. When a man compliments himself on his frankness you may be sure he is getting ready to say something impudent. Any time Mexico becomes dissatisfied with the existing rule all she has to do is to open the jails and start a new party. It is hard to be original on some topics, but the futurist style of oratory offers new opportunities to public speakers. One of the great advantages of spending the evening at home is that you do not have a chance to spend anything else. A Frenchman says he can read a man's character in his hair. If the man is bald, is he therefore without character? The Denver chemist who sneezed away $25,000 worth of radium puts our old friend Cleopatra and her pearls in the discard. With aviators bumping together in the clouds, it's getting so one can't take a quiet constitutional in Germany without a parasol. A Boston man says every one should learn to be an orator. As if there were not misery and suffering enough in the world as it is. How often we hear a woman ask a man questions on a subject about which she knows more than he does, just to be pleasant. In another way of looking at it a moving picture film of the wedding would be just as good as a duly sealed marriage certificate. If more of us knew what the signals mean that are displayed in the clouds every day fewer of us would get wet when the storms break. A Berlin architect predicts an age of glass houses. Aside from the proverbial handicap, they will never be popular in very hot weather. Hearty unanimity of thought in the contemplated church unity is made manifest by the willingness of every man that the rest of the world should join his. If it is all the same to those savants, the world would prefer that they devise something that will make it immune from mosquitoes rather than from the effects of mosquito bites. Burglar in New York who carried off a 500 pound safe, found $10 only in it. An experience like this discounts all the advice about putting one's utmost energy in any enterprise if one would win success.

There are times when I reck not of hon- ors, When all of the fame in the land Were mine if I turned to the bays I had spurned, And I'd not turn a hand. There are times when the love that the poets Have dreamed of might smile but in vain, When the promise of ease would be pow- erless to please Or of respite from pain. There are times when the world and the heavens Might plunge in the bottomless deep And I never would fret—if they only would let Me go on with my sleep! —Cleveland Plain Dealer. Used Penny Well. "Well, my son," said a good natured father to an eight-year-old son the other night, "what have you done today that may be set down as a good deed?" "Gave a poor boy a penny," replied the hopeful.

The Reward of Virtue. When I've been good I ain't afraid To climb in bed at night. I go upstairs and say my prayers And never think of big black bears Nor ghosts when I've put out the light. When I've been bad I wish that I'd Not have to go to bed at all. Because big black things seem to be All ready to jump out at me From everywhere along the hall.
