The confidence of the people is being restored. Investigation of this corporation alone has given increased enthusiasm in the minds of coloured men seeking honest investment, and it is only a question of time before the standard and method of this corporation will become a basis upon which other corporations carried on by our people may well take notice.

The Base Ball Boys are preparing to spring a surprise on their many friends who have patronized their parties this spring by a very unique dancing party to be given at the residence of Mr. Jack Johnson, 3344 Wabash avenue. Tuesday evening, June 28, 1910. The boys have had a very successful season so far, having lost only one game, and in order to bring their friends together and incidentally raise money to defray their expenses, they have planned what promises to be a very pretty party. The admission will be twenty-five cents. DR. M'KISSACK IN PARIS. Paris, France, June 17.—Dr. A. B. McKissack, who is here taking a postgraduate course in surgery, has won great praise from the medical profession on the way he uses his knife. The doctor will leave here the latter part of July for a month's study in Vienna before he returns to America. MRS. H. H. BOGER SICK. Mrs. H. H. Boger, who a week ago returned from Springfield, O., from the burial of her mother, Mrs. H. P. Woods, lies sick at her home, 3437 Wabash avenue, from nervousness caused by her illness before leaving the city and her mother's death. We hope for her speedy recovery. MISS LULU WILSON IN CITY.

Will Go to South America, His Home, Where There Is No Color Line, to Work Among Both White an Black FIRST OF RACE TO GRADUATE Native of British Guiana, South America Wins Three First Prizes and Two Second Prizes—Treated Well by Fellow Students. Special to the Chicago Defender. St. Paul, Minn., June 17, 1910. On June 8 Rev. Stephen Theobald and fifteen white new priests of the Roman Catholic Church were ordained in St. Mary's Chapel, St. Paul Seminary. Holy orders were administered by Rt. Rev. Patrick J. Heffron, in accordance with the wish of the seminarians who studied under the prelate while he was rector of the seminary. Rt. Rev. Heffron was lately created bishop of Winona. Among those ordained was Rev. Stephen L. Theobald, who gains the distinction of being the first negro educated in a Northern seminary. He was born in British Guiana thirty-five years ago, and educated in the Cathedral Common school of Georgetown, and afterwards in St. Stanislaus College, conducted by the Jesuit fathers, where he studied classics and philosophy. He graduated from the college in 1900, taking the junior diploma of the University of Cambridge, in England, and, after a post-graduate course in classics at Queen's College of British Guiana, he took the senior diploma of Cambridge. Having studied law for several years, Rev. Theobald went to Canada in 1904 for the purpose of engaging in the profession. The field in Montreal proving undesirable, he turned his attention to journalism, and for sixteen months was attached to the editorial staff of the Montreal Daily Star. In December, 1905, Rev. Theobald left the Canadian city for St. Paul, where he entered the St. Paul Seminary as an ecclesiastical student under the patronage of Archbishop John Ireland. As a theological student, Rev. Theobald headed his class with three first prizes and two second prizes to his credit. He will reside at the seminary until assigned a parish by Archbishop Ireland. The other young priests ordained are: Rev. Michael Harte, Fargo; Rev. William Coleman, Rev. Peter Thesaras, Winona; Rev. William Finley, St. Paul; Rev. Francis Hacusler and Rev. Maurice Schwebe of Lead, S. D.; Rev. Lawrence Ryan, St. Paul; Rev. John Dolny, Sloux Falls, S. D., and Reverends Valentine Casey, Patrick Behan, Maurice Nolan, Michael Lentz, Francis Ballasher, Aloysius Thole, John O'Donnell, all of Dubuque, Iowa. THE LELANDS TO TAKE TRIP. The Leland Giants will not be at home Sunday, but will be home hereafter, as follows: June 26th, Dixon Brownns of Dixon, III; July 3d, Stars of Cuba; July 10th, Gunthers, and July 17th, Kansas City Giants. The Lelands leave Sunday night for West Baden, where they play on the 20th, 21st and 22d, Louisville, Ky., the 23d and 24th, returning Saturday, the 25th, when they play the Roseland Eclipse, and on the 30th they play at Sheboygan, Wis., and also on July 1st. These games will get the Lelands in their proper condition and will enable them to play better ball than they have yet played this season. Those wishing to see scientific ball playing can't afford to miss their home exhibition. They play the Artesians to-morrow at Artesian Park, while the Normals and Mutuals play at their home park. CALIFORNIA IS Q. K.. By Special Correspondent of Chicago Defender. Mr. and Mrs. M. D. Willey, of Chicago, who have been visiting Mr. and Mrs. Hugh F. Williams, also their esteemed friend, return to Chicago this week. Mr. Robt. La Marr, formerly of the Windy City, but now residing in Oakland, Cal., left for the East last evening, after a pleasant trip to southern C. terday morning. Their brief stay was quite a pleasant one to their many friends of Oakland, as well as Los Angeles. They are returning East by the way of Portland, Ore., known in the West as the Shasta Route. After a short stay at Portland they will visit Vancouver, B. C., and Victoria, B. C.; then East over the greatest scenic route in the world—the Canada Pacific to Montreal, B. C.; thence to Tampa and from there to New York City, where they expect to spend about two weeks. They expect to arrive home on or about July 1. Mr. Robt. La Marr will leave our city for Chicago about June 20. After spending a few days in the great and grandest city in all the world with his father, R. L. La Marr, Sr., and look them over, he expects to proceed to Mackinaw, Mich., for the summer. Say they all will leave the Windy City, but that Lake Michigan water and State and 31st streets will bring them back. NEGRO ENTERPRISE WILL NOT ADVERTISE. They Lose Every Year $80,000 from Nearsightedness in Business. Danville, Ill., June 14, 1910. The Chicago Defender. Dear Sirs—Please send me the names of some of the places and owners of some hotel resorts just north of Chicago, say forty or fifty miles up the lake, where colored people have good accommodations. I have heard of a resort operated exclusively by Negroes, but I don't know where it is. Please recommend me some places, so I can write and make arrangements. We want to stay somewhere near Chicago, as we want to spend some time in the city also. There is to be a small party, two or three families, and we want to have an enjoyable time. Please give this matter your early attention. Enclosed find postage for return. Thanking you in advance, Yours respectfully, G: M. REED. There are several hotels and boarding places about Chicago who feel that a month to month ad, means more to them than a few dollars spent in printer's ink. We have had calls of this kind for the past six weeks. We have notified several summer hotels, but they have not responded. The above note is a fair example of what we have come to our notice. MEMORIAL SERVICE For Paul Lawrence Dunbar Memorial services will be held Sunday afternoon, June 26, in honor of Paul Lawrence Dunbar at the Institutional Church at 4 p. m. Hon. Richard T. Greener, of Washington, D.C., and former United States Consul to Bombay, will deliver the address, Miss Marie Burton will render a selection by Dunbar, and Harrison Emanuel will contribute a violin solo; also Mr. Brown.—Julus N. Avendorph, Manager THE ILLINOIS NATIONAL GUARDS MEET. The Illinois National Guards, 300 officers strong, held their annual convention last Saturday on the U. S. ship Gresham. In the evening a theater party at the Majestic was the leading feature. Both white and colored officers mingled together as if they were true Englishmen or Frenchmen. They all had a great time, but the officers of the Eighth turned on some sport that the down State boys did not know anything about. On Sunday the boys were the guests of Major R. R. Jackson at the Cuba-Chicago game, which ended in a defeat for the latter at 4 to 0. Those who were in attendance and who really enjoyed the game were Captain A. H. Kinnebrew, Jacksonville, Ill.; Capt. A. M. Williams, Metropolis; Capt. R. A. Byrd, Springfield; Lieut. C. H. Freeman, Jacksonville; Lieut. Harry Lewis, Bloomington, and our own Dr. Jefferson, along with the Chicago officers completed the party. CORNELL CHARITY CLUB. The Cornell Charity Club met at the residence of Mrs. Minnie E. Roach, 2639 Armour avenue, last Friday afternoon. A very interesting meeting was held. A large number were out and a very pleasant p hrdl hrdl hrd and a very excellent program was rendered. GRACE IN CHAMPIONSHIP GAME. The game for the leadership of the Presbyterian League will be played Saturday, June 18, at Washington park between the Grace team and the crack 41st street team. The game will be a battle of southpaws, as Manager Brown will send "Herbie" Lewis to the firing line for Grace. Fryburg and Richards will warm up for the opposing nine. Trade of the United States with its noncontiguous territories aggregated $172,000,000 in the year just ended, against about $64,000,000 a decade ago. In addition to the $172,000,000 worth of merchandise there was received from Alaska $18,000,000 worth of gold of domestic production. RAMBLING ABOUT CHICAGO Items of Interest All Around the Town, and a Line or Two Elsewhere. BY THE RAMBLEB. Chicago is baseball crazy, and why not? The great American game is the most fascinating of all outdoor games. But that's not the trouble. Up to this year the fans turned out en masse every Sunday afternoon and any other time they could get a chance and cheered to their hearts' content while Rube Foster pitched those wonderful no-hit games. Now things have changed. The mighty Rube is not the only "Richmond in the field." Now, with two splendid teams playing at the same hour, on the same day, the all-absorbing question is, "What game shall I go to?" Now, you who love the game know what a hard task this is, but happily there are enough and some to spare, and the Leland Giants and the Chicago Giants both report a large attendance. Auburn Park seems like home to many, while others are charmed with Normal Park. No team ever existed like the Leland Giants, says one, while the other is willing to go his pile that Frank Leland's team is "all wool and a yard wide." The writer has been asked for an opinion, but having left my rubber gloves down in Atlantic City I cannot touch it. Yes, it is not only a live wire, but a red hot one. Let me tell you, however, how I do. It's simple, too—fact is, head or tail has decided far greater questions than this. Heads for the Leland Giants; tails for the Chicago Giants. Try it, anyhow. With the coming of real summer weather "The Great Light Way" (State street) has blossomed forth in all its glory. From 26th street south it has become the popular promenade for the masses and classes. As soon as the lights are turned on they turn out and even Coney Island and Atlantic City are forgotten in the enjoyment of its varied attractions. Even the many amusement parks with their narrow ideas in the treatment afforded various races are ignored and all Chicago flocks to "The Great Light Way." Every amusement to be found elsewhere is to be found here. From the merry-go-round in an open lot to the pretentious summer garden at 53d street it is one continuous round of fun. It is the poor man's paradise. If he cannot afford the many attractions he can enjoy the stroll and even that is a diversion these warm summer nights. TWO YOUNG MEN OF THE RIGHT KIND. Messrs. A. R. Hall and B. F. Burwell are now filling important positions in the chemical department of the Indiana steel works at Gary, Ind. Both of these young men are Chicagoans and were formerly employed at the Hotel Del Prado. A CHARMING VISITOR. Miss Mildred Plummer of Minneapolis, one of the most charming of our summer visitors, is still the guest of Mr. and Mrs. Wesley Plummer, 2002 Dearborn street. Miss Plummer has been the honoree at several delightful affairs. CHANCELLOR COMMANDER J. H. JOHNSON IN CITY. Mr. Jas, H. Johnson of Springfield, Chancellor Commander of Crispus Attacks Lodge, K. of P., of that city, spent several days in the city last week as the guest of Lester J. Henderson, 31 East 36th place. In his party were Major Otis B. Duncan, Cap. Wm. Byrd and Lieut. Edw. Morgan of the 8th Infantry. All had a splendid visit and expressed warm praise for the great work of the Defender. GOOD SAMARITANS IN SESSION State Grand Lodge of Good Samaritans and Daughters of Samarita in Twelfth Annual Session. Chicago, June 10, 1910. To the editor of the grand and noble paper of our race known as The Defender: We beg for space in your valuable paper to announce the twelfth annual session of the T. H. of Good Samaritans and D. S. The State Grand Lodge, No. 24, convened from June 7 to June 10, at 2712 State street, Chicago, with Mr. Walls, Grand Chief; Miss M. Clark, G. Deputy; Mrs. Sarah Stratton, D. F.; Mrs. Viola Douglas, Pres. D., in chair. At this session it proved that at last the Samaritans are coming to the front. During the past year there was a new lodge worked up by Miss M. Clark, which her members and over $31 in treasury; also St. Cella Lodge, No. 11, with 104 members, having over $67 in its treasury. We are proud of these two new lodges. Watch the columns of Defender for further announcement on G. S. & D. S. The State G. Lodge will give public installation and entertainment. Partial list of Grand officers elected were as follows, and complete list later. Watch The Defender. Right W. G. D. Chief—G. G. Hill. Right W. G. Chief—Bro. N. C. Walls. Right W. G. V. Chief—Bro. F. A. Rawlins. Right W. G. Secy.—E. V. Cash. Right W. G. Treas.—M. Champ. Right W. G. Chap.—Chas. Clark. We owe our standing solely to the D. S. for Chief. In the days past and gone there was none to serve, and Sarah Stratton, A. M. Nott, Francis Clark and others served as Chief, etc., until to-day Chicago affords men who are not afraid to have a sister and brother's lodge together and work together in love and in union. Those desiring to unite with us, see us at the public installation, or any member of the order, or send your application to Charles Clark, 553 Douglas place, the editor for the Grand Lodge. MRS. S. J. CARTER'S NEW HOME, While on a hurry call our reporter while walking at a 2:10 clip on Prairie avenue, noticed at 3426 quite a commotion. Neighbors (white) on both sides of them were looking out the windows, and across the street the same thing was in vogue, so of course, the reporter was forced to look too. A big van was backed up to the curbing and the men had an armful of cut-glass and one had a beautiful Japanese carved chair studded with pearls. When on asking who owned the goods, he was told, "Why, man, these are Mr. and Mrs. S. J. Carter's furnishings." Whereupon our reporter entered the house and found Mrs. Carter hard at work directing the men where to place this or that. Say, it's some house; eleven rooms, hardwood throughout, with gas and electricity, with every convenience which would go to complete a modern home. The house is three stories, with a cathedral finished front of gray stone; in fact, this is one of the finest on the street. They bought the place last March and kept it quiet until now. She said, "I did not intend to let anyone know until I had a house-warming this fall but I guess one will have to move right to keep you Defender people in knowing things, even then it's unfulful." The Defender is proud of this home and we are sure when you see it you will be also. MISS FLOY MAE STEPHENS GRADUATES. Miss Floy Mae Stephens, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Stephens, the restaurant proprietor, 2913 State street, will return home 'to-morrow, Sunday morning, after graduating from Wilberforce University this week. Miss Stephens won the first prize in her class for scholarship and music and officiated at the plano at all the exercises during commencement, besides the accomplishment of MISS FLOY MAE STEPHENS. letters and art she is a fine cook and housekeeper, and each summer on her return home she works for her mother to get her spending money for the next year in school. This she did for three years, and was not afraid to do so. Any place in the restaurant she could fill from the cash register to the cook stove. Mrs. Stephens spent the week with her, and her father joined them on Thursday, commencement day. They will leave the school Saturday evening and arrive in the city on Sunday morning. Both mother and father are proud of her and the many friends of the family are making arrangements to greet her when she arrives. Fractically the only stoves used in Scotland are those for cooking, almost all houses getting heat from open fireplaces. PRICE CENTS WASHINGTON NEUROES REPRESENT GOOD N Southern White Man Proud Specie—Black Man Unab Protect Their. Daughters Wives—The Big Negro Shoul. Kicked Instead of the Little O THEY HAVE JIM CROW SCHOOLS Were It Not for Mary Church Terrell, Seven-Year-Old Girl Would Have to Walk Two Miles to School —Instead She Demanded Her Civil Rights and White School Accepts Little Colored Girl. Special to the Chicago Defender. Washington, D. C., June 17.—Washington is well supplied with Icklepitch Negroes, men who seem to have lost all manhood in everything which pertains to the real interests of the race. When the color line was drawn by the Sunday School Union or Congress which met in Washington a few weeks ago, the majority of the colored preachers refused to join with Revs. J. Milton Waldron, F. J. Grimke and G. Garner in their many protest against the unchristian action of that body. Roscoe Conkling Bruce is a man in whose heart the Jim Crow idea has sunk deep. Although a graduate of Harvard, he assimilated but little of the Harvard atmosphere. One would imagine that he had finished his schooling in some cornfield academy of the South. Recently he was sent as a delegate to the National Educational Association at Indianapolis, and instead of attending to the business for which he was sent, he spent his time trying to work a plan for the establishment of a Jim Crow high school in that city. Bruce runs things with a high hand in the schools here, except when called down by Superintendent Stuart. Not long since he attempted to demote one of the best teachers for what he termed "the good of the service," but the lady appealed to Stuart, who called a halt and compelled Bruce to make. an apology, which he did in the abject manner of which he is master. The Citizens' Association, of which Napoleon Marshall, the famous attorney for the discharged Brownsville soldiers, is president; Lawyers Stewart, Neal and Lacey and Mr. Daniel Murray and other prominent citizens are preparing to look after Bruce, and something will be doing soon. "Link" Johnson, the new officeholder, who was given his place for defeating that noble race representative, Capt. J. W. Lyons, who made the gallant but unsuccessful fight for Foraker, is a type of the Negro now in the saddle. The best description of Johnson appeared in the Atlanta Constitution. It was written by the Washington correspondent of that journal and referred to Johnson as "a darky who knows his place." There is another Johnson here, and he came from Kentucky as a car date for Recorder of Deeds at per, but finally accepted a $1,40 ship. He is not American boing first seen the light in 't Indies, but he lacks the man the average West Indian and in the Jim Crow car, the Jim Berea and other Kentucky Jim isms. O tempora, O mores! The da Douglass and Langston have pa and Washington, once the home some of the greatest specimen Negro manhood, is now the able place of the lickspittle Negro. ```markdown ``` There is, however, a bright side to the picture. While the majority of the men are bootlickers, the women, God bless them, are standing for the right. When Tunnell and Horner, two male members of the School Board, voted that a little 7-year-old child should be Jim Crowed and refused admittance to the nearest public school and practically denied an education—for there is no other school, nearer than two miles—Mrs. Mary Church Terrell, the colored woman member of the board, voted in favor of the little girl. She had the courage of her convictions and did not hesitate to do the right, although she stood alone. Hon. J. C. Napier, of Nashville, was in the city recently, and while here President Taft offered him the Liberian mission, which he declined. Mr. Napier is one of the most successful Negroes in Tennessee, a man of great wealth and president of a bank. Hon. Ralph W. Tyler, auditor for the Navy Department, has returned from a tour of his State, Ohio. He was enthusiastically received by press and people. Banquets were tendered to him at Cleveland, Columbus, Dayton and Zanesville. He reported to the administration the political conditions in the State. Mr. Tyler's here is in excellent shape, and he a large force of colored clerks. Tyler takes great interest in settlement work.

MUNICIPAL MISFITS. tem and Other Technicalities, bY SYLVESTER RUSSELL. It is not generally understood by a majority of the citizens of Chicago that Utetr postattice system is the more ftnperfect In regulation than any In ull the large eities of the Bust. After mention of a visit by U. S. Post- master Hitehcoek, several months azo, we. dismiss It as quickly, not to dwell upon politics. Perhaps it never appeared to the poor people of Chi- easo, and especially poor men dons a mail order business and traveling people who are compelled to reside in different parts of the city and com pelled to have thelr mail delivered Where they reside, that the Chleago delivery’ system not only suffers a stain because there is no box system in the local or sub-post offices, but the mail hut fs stolen, by nobody knows who, in the thousands of furnishea room lodging houses in Chicago, re- fects upon the mail carriers who are ten timcs more honest than many lodging house keepers, who, by the Way, are not always responsible for all the mail lost in the house. ‘The best way to make this subject plain for the benefit of the voor is to give an illustration of the perfection of the New York delivery system, Ey- ery sub-postoffice in New York has a box system. Poor people ean hire a box in their own district at a very small sum, and have their mail ad- dressed to the bos number and men- tion of their own district, which saves 4 mail order dealer the troubic of one hou’s trip to the general postofiice and of having his mail robbed in a furnished room house, ‘There ts also a general delivery in each sub-oflice, which saves a traveling man the trot: vie of having to either have to get bis mail at the general office, a loss of time, or run the risk of having it stolen in his lodging place. There is also muny honest statfonary and to- Vacco dealers who rent boxes in thelr stores, In Chicago the rich man’s high priced postoffice vox system, which is amply satisfactory, even if to feed the highest authority with a big political spoon, is as far as the safety of the system extends. ‘The poor mail order dealer, the traveler and the thousands of other people who are compelled to live in flats and in furnished room honses, are too poor to pay for a box and the sacrifice of time to make a downtown trip, and as there is no sub-box system or sub- general delivery, they are compelled to run the risk of losing their mail in furnished room houses, which is de- cidedly general and casts a shadow over the poor letter carriers who de- liver in their districts. ‘The true tales T have been told by Individuals and what T have observed In one year's vial In the mail order business would not look well if exaggerated in print. But it would he a good thing if Uncle Sam could do something at an early date for the elvie welfare of the sut- fering poor of a tog-benighted city. Thore ave three word-diserepancies which I have noticed in Chicago news- paper and police department expres- sions, which I have never seen mis- pliced in New York accounts. ‘The word “detective” as T understand it means an officer in eltizen’s clothes who should show his hidden badge upon demand from any man whom he apprehends. A policeman is an offi- cer in uniform and the only man who has a right to shoot if he commands ’ person or group to halt. An officer may be a policeman ox,a detective, but the word “officer” ‘Should never be substituted for eltheriin print, lest its mention be confusing. ‘Tie day should speedily come in Chicago when people will not have to live in fear of rough appretension even to a poor suspicious person nor a weak degener- ate. The sclentific crook of today, who is in advance of detection, «does not prow the streets at night, It may be that the most dangerous crooks are well fed and well haused, formed and assimilated like unto a syuilicate. ‘There are many things to be con- sidered in large cases of bribery, not fo exetise any. In cases of wholesale oribery, where there are many links ro the chain, one certain man, even if convicted, should not be made to serve an awful term when so many others go free. There should be ways und means by which an inestigation ould claim the entire amounts paid in bribery and turn the same over to che city treasury oF else prison all parties concerned.

The dancers and dances were neuer to perfection than ever before. There was yet a little lack of composure discerned in Leo Bailey's performance, and his clothes fit him nicely.

The Twenty-fifth Annual District Sunday School Convention will convene Tuesday and Wednesday, June 21st and 22d, at Bethel Church, 30th and Dearborn streets. Mr. Chester Cooper, District Superintendent. The watchword is, "Move Forward." Officers of convention: Rt. Rev. C. T. Schofen, D. D., President; Rev. Timothy Reeves, D. D., Presiding Elder; Chester W. Cooper, L. D. D., District Superintendent; Miss Violo Hill, Secretary; Mrs. Smith, Assistant Secretary; Miss Millie Green, Treasurer. Soon wedding bolls will begin to ring on Chestnut street for some beautiful widow, while on Orleans street, from Chicago avenue to Locust street, seems that every other lady is a widow. Rev. and Mrs. H. E. Stewart, whose cut appears in this column, have done a most excellent work on the North Side, coming to Wayman Chapel at a time when the people were discouraged and the church divided by factional strife, also a second mortgage on the church of $575, including interest a little over $600, with only 10 days to raise the first note. This he was successful in doing. Not only has the entire second mortgage been met, but all the current expenses kept up, and Sunday, June 5, including gleanings, the rally will reach $700. This REV. AND MRS. STEWART. will be for back debts and improvements also to put in a new sidewalk, remodel the lecture room of the church, placing in the church a rest room for women and other necessary accommodations. The spiritual interest has been wonderfully increased, the congregation growing in numbers and interest in the services. About 80 persons converted during the conference year, the choir robed, and a voluntary choirs organized, the Sunday School increased in interest and enthusiasm. Over $2,000, raised by trustees since last October. Mrs. Stewart has organized the young women into a most successful club known as the Thimble Club. They have done a good work. Rev. and Mrs. Stewart are both prepared for the work. Mrs. Stewart is a graduate from Wilberforce, O., from the Scientific Department, while Rev. Stewart is from the Theological Department, winning the title of Bachelor of Divinity, and five years later the title of Doctor of Divinity. Dr. Stewart was the leader from the Indiana conference at the General Conference which met in Chicago in 1904. He has pastored successfully some of the leading churches of the connection, the last being the Institutional, where he remained 4 years doing a most excellent work. He says that Wayman Chapel must be placed in the first class churches, and he expects to do this by conference, as all claims and obligations will be met and a large increase along all lines will be made. At this writing he is in Wilberforce attending the commencement and will take a few days' rest in Ohio before returning to Chicago. He contemplates remodeling the church next year should he be returned. There will be no doubt about that should the desire of the membership be respected. Miss Pearl Bell entertained a party on last Friday night at the residence of Mrs. Brown, 1007 Wells street, in honor of Mr. Robert Bell and Miss Hyranda Prel, wedding party. After luncheon progressive whist was played. The reception of the Sunday School last Tuesday, June 14, at the residence of Miss M. E. Thomas, met with a grand success. We hope the Sunday School may become more united, with that Christ-like gentleman in the person of Mr. H. H. Henly, superintendent of Wayman Chapel. Given on last Tuesday, June 14th, a grand reception at the residence of Miss Blanch Hamilton of 2422 Seminary avenue in honor of the Young Ladies' Thimble Club of Wrayman Chapel, Miss M. Hunt, president; Miss M. E. Hines, secretary; Mrs. H. E. Steenad, director. A nice evening was spent. All enjoyed the very best of time. We only hope that this club will continue to improve itself.

The program of the Standard Literary Society of the Olivet Church last Sunday was of such interest and length it was voted to continue the same next Sunday with a discussion of the topics. A paper by Miss Fisher, daughter of the pastor, entitled "What Is It?" referring to the attractions the street has for too many young girls, received many comments. Another paper, "Some Vital Questions Concerning the Selection of Foods." by Dr. W. L. Jenkins, was a masterly production setting forth an outline of our most needed food products and how to select them. The speaker of the afternoon was Mrs. Celia Parker Woolley, president of the Douglass Center. Mrs. Woolley gave an unusual interesting history of the center, many hearing the story for the first time. A whole village in Italy is sliding down the hill on which it was built. The consting must be unusually fine in that locality. DEATHS OF THE WEEK Only Published in the Chicago Defender—No Other Has It— Our Own Idea. BY MAR COLEMAN. Earl Green, 4 months, 3525 Armour av.

Abbott: BASEBALL OF THE PAST WEEK Grace Leads South Division in Presbyterian League. Hope Lose to Bethlehem—Gossip of the Players. BY NATHAN W. JACKSON. The loss of four stars, "Doc" Cook, M. Baker, Al. Johnson and "Mike" Williams, didn't seem to weaken the Grace Regulars. They walloped Crear in a seven inning game by the score of 21 to 2. The game itself was a joke; they slammed Crear's twirlers to every corner of the lot, making fifteen hits, and their support was something fierce. On the other hand Grace, with practically a new team, played a nice game in the field, and they could not have shown better form at bat. Manager Brown took advantage of the opportunity and tried out several new players. The recruits did not play bad baseball, but one or two seem to have something lacking in their make-up and they are not expected to be retained. The features of the game was a home run hit by "Herbble" Lewis with three men on bases, and a steal home by "Pete" Madden. Baseballdom in, Brief Bethlehem got revenge for the beating Grace gave them by trimming Hope 14 to 7. After defeating almost every team in its league Bethel met a tartar in Grace Junior. Bethel lost in a very exciting game by the score of 8 to 7. The Quinn Chapel baseball team from which so much was expected found an easy victim in St. Stephen, beating them 12 to 2. During the Creer-Grace game the captain of Creer said they didn't care very much about winning, but would like to pull Grace out of first place. The game between St. John and Olivet was forfeited to St. John because Olivet failed to get playing grounds. "Doc" Cook has finished his course in medicine and left for his home in Washington, D. C. M. Baker has also finished his course in wooing and has carried his bride to his home in Kansas City. Grace plays 41st Street Church at Washington Park this Saturday. This game is expected to be a hummer at 41st Church won over Grace in a practice game in the early part of the season. ENGLEWOOD SOCIETY. BY C. A. JORDAN. The K. D.

Its great affinity for all soaps and its power for taking up and neutralizing the harmful elements that exist in all soaps are unsurpassed by anything known to the chemical world. The alkali is taken up by some of the properties of the cream, forming a new compound called cream sopoleate. This newly formed compound electrifies and purifies the skin; removing every trace of grease, paint, varnish, or any foreign elements, leaving the skin in perfect condition, pure and white. This makes possible the arterial circulation which brings the desired nutrition to the very outer layer of the skin. Rejuvenating the cellular elements and thereby bringing back the youthful appearance. Full directions on every bottle. Ask your druggist for THE ELITE FACE CREAM and take no other. 3019 Armour Ave. Phone Douglas 3031 Watch the Defender for our big ad. Telephone Main 4153 J. A.

The presiding elder preached morning and evening; also preached again last Wednesday evening. The bishop will be with them all day next Sunday, as this is his last official visit this side of conference. The bazaar opens up in full blast next Monday night and continues through Thursday night. It promises to be a grand affair, a special literary program each night by some of the best talent in Chicago. Bishop G. L. Blackwell will make the opening address. The choir never sang to a better advantage than last Sunday, and Madam Delilah, Thomas, the leading soprano singer, covered herself with glory as she sang as only a Mrs. Thomas can sing the song of "Some Happy Day." Don't fail to hear her again next Sunday, as she has been requested to repeat it next Sunday morning. Mrs. Ida M. Beecher has the choir under good control and too much cannot be said in praise of her excellent work along this line. The pastor is preparing for his conference, which meets in South Bend next week. The Sunday school is preparing for children's day exercises, which take place on the 4th Sunday in this month. A fine program is being prepared for that occasion. Mrs. Alice I. Wilker of Seattle, Wash., passed through our city this week en route for her former home in South Carolina. While in the city she was the guest of Dr. and Mrs. J. B. Colbert. Don't fail to attend the bazaar next Monday. Come and bring your friends and have one of the best times of your life. PROF. BOARMAN.

A very pleasant meeting of the Phyllis Wheatley club was held at the residence of the president, Mrs. L. A. Davis, 3226 Prairie avenue. The new officers for the year were installed and the reports from the various departments and officers of the work of the past year were read. There were several visitors present. All present were much pleased with the work done during the past year, and hope to do more this year than last. The club was entertained by Mrs. Alice Green, who served a most enjoyable lunch at the close of the meeting. Our next meeting will be July 6, at the home of Mrs. Elizabeth Bell, 4054 Maplewood avenue. We hope to have a large attendance. Do not forget to send your donations in to the president, Mrs. L. A. Davis, 3226 Prairie avenue, or Mrs. Fischer, 3851 Aldine place, for the house cleaning fund. A number of ladies are soliciting funds for the house cleaning. We hope the public will feel interested in this work and help us to beautify and put our home in a sanitary condition. We have been obliged to do a great deal of repairing this year. We are greatly in need of funds. It will take fifty dollars ($50.00) to do the really necessary work about the home. Who will give us the first $10? Mrs. Pearson, our financial secretary, gave us a pleasant surprise by being at our meeting for the first time since her illness. We hope she will be able to come regularly, as she is greatly missed by us. We were pleased to have Mrs. Collins present again, and to know that her son is much improved. Mrs. Cassie Payne Roberts and husband are able to be about the house again, after their severe illness. The Juvenile Phyllis Wheatley club is making an excellent showing. Their officers met the mother club to get her ways of doing things. They meet Saturday afternoon at the home of Mrs. Egleston. We hope to see a strong and helpful club among these little girls. The Art 'Embroidery Class will meet with Mrs. Lee, of 5259 Dearborn street, Thursday afternoon from 2 to 5 p.m. Any one wishing to have any kind of needle work is invited to come and join this club of workers. They are doing some beautiful work. The members of the Calendar Club are beginning to awake. Several of them made reports to-day. We hope they will get busy, as our year will soon be gone. No time to sleep in the Phyllis Wheatley. Always plenty of work. We hope that each member will make her report at the next meeting of all donations received for the house committee. Mrs. Fischer brought in the largest amount to-day. A full report will be given as soon as all are heard from. Please send us your contribution; if only a dime, it will help. Mrs. G. W.
