The industrial school idea is being run into the ground here. The latest one is proposed by one James W. Poe, who could well afford to spend several years in being trained at Tuskegee or Hampton. Headquarters have been opened in this city and an attempt will be made to raise a fund of $25,000. Such a school would of course provide a good drug berth for Brother Poe, but is not needed for the rest of the race. Armstrong, Manual Training School furnishes free training to all Negroes in the district and Dr. Washington's Tuskegee will do the rest. It is time to call a halt on the multiplication of so-called industrial schools which are started for the purpose of taking care of the founder. *** At the recent meeting of the Negro Business League of the District of Columbia the following officers were elected: President, Robert L. Warringe the policeman; vice presidents, Daniel Freeman and A. H. Underdown; recording secretary C. H. Lawson; treasurer George W. Robinson; chaplain, Emanuel Murray; sergeant-at-arms, John W. Lewis. George W. Cook has been reappointed a member of the board of charities of the district. His new term of office begins July 1. Commander John M. Luby, U. S. N., commanding officer of the cruiser Des Moines, which is on duty on the Liberian coast, has reported to the Navy Department that the Republic of Liberia is in urgent need of assistance. The republic he said, did not have enough men to equip troops to proceed against The Chicago Defender. people; that the race problem is critical problem, and not econom- as is universally claimed, and the Negro's strongest and only die- gainst injustice is the bailot. Assistant District Attorney James Cobb, in addition to being a lawyer, also the best whist player in the district and there are a number of breaches here. Great preparations are being made for the national meeting of doctors to be held here in August. Dr. A. M. Curtis has just purchased a new auto- mobile which is the finest owned by a Negro doctor in Washington. It will be well oiled and in good work- ing order when the doctors convene, and Dr. and Mrs. Curtis will give their visiting friends many joy rides. There is a pair here known as the "Billbill Twins." They are short and stocky built with heads, bodies and feel alike. Both are fat and jolly fellows, always ready for a talk and a laugh. They are one and inseparable; one is seldom seen unless accompanied by the other. A community of inter- ests binds them together. One is very dark in complexion and the other is yaller." Who are they? Dr. W. D. Crum, the recently appointed minister to Liberia, is in the city receiving instructions from the State Department prior to sailing for his post. * * * Hon. Emmet J. Scott, member of the commission to Liberia, will be in the city shortly to look after some important business matters. He will be the guest of Hon. R. W. Tyler, auditor for the Navy Department. THE VANDERVALL GIRLS Determined to Attend Dance of High School Graduating Class. RIGHT MUST WIN. Society Folks of the Oranges Are Distraught and Wonder at Nerve of Young Ladies. Special to the Chicago Defender. East Orange, N. J., June 25.—The determination of Irene Vandervall, a pupil in the East Orange high school, to attend the dance of the graduating class of that school in the fashionable women's club rooms at Orange on June 24 has set the society people of the Oranges boiling, and complications of the most perplexing order are in prospect. As a member of the graduating class of the high school she is entitled to and received two tickets to the dance, which is one of the features of the ending of the high school curriculum. In addition, she and her sister, who may also be graduated, received two other tickets to be used in the event that her sister passes the final examination and gets her diploma. Those two are the only girls in a class of about 80 white boys and girls, many of whom are scions of some of the most exclusive families of the most prominent social set in the Oranges. Offers to relieve the surcharged atmosphere by purchasing the four tickets at whatever price the owners might demand were extended to the girls and were indignantly rejected. Falling in this, some of the white girls, unable to contemplate with compacency the social mingling of races on the waxed floor of the fashionable women's club, where the two girls should bring their escorts to the dance, began to decline the invitations to the function. How far the movement has extended to one knows, but the parents of the white girls are in despair of success by conciliatory measures, as James Vandervall, father of the two girls, is a stanch believer and supporter of the rights of his daughters and other respectable people of his race to share all public honors and privileges in common with the white people. It was he who led the fight against the segregation of a foreign element from the other pupils in the grammar schools a few years ago and won, much to the relief of the best circles of society. They entertain little hope that Vandervall will yield any of the rights of his children to attend this dance and are puzzled as to what steps are to be taken to prevent the climax. As we go to press word comes that Vandervall girls will attend and have made all preparations for same, care, and secret service men will go to the young ladies to and house. ED. TURNER OF URIP OUR LAMENTED PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR. We hall and celebrate our lamented poet, who was born June 27, 1872. Historians would have you believe his mother's Kentucky master allowed her to sit in his library while he read to his wife, and in this way she was inspired, and Paul was endowed with this gift. This is not true. Mrs. Dunbar was a true slave, flogged at any time, plowed and chopped down trees on her master's plantation, just as a man would do, and if she did not do PAUL LAUREN POET AND her task like the rest she would go slave quarters in a log cabin with went to Ohio.

She lived down in the slave quarters in a log cabin with her parents until they ran away and went to Ohio. There was never a slave who was allowed to look at a book, much less sit and listen to his or her master read. Paul Laurence Dunbar was inspired by God, and not through the good graces of a "loving and kind master." Paul's last prayer is considered a masterpiece: "I lead gently, Lord, and slow, For fear that I may fall; I know now where to go Unless I hear Thy call; My painting soul doth yearn For Thy green hills afar— So let Thy mercy burn— My greater, Guilding Star." Mr. Dunbar, a personal friend of the editor, gave him the photo from which this cut was made. THE CHICAGO GIANTS IN THEIR NEW HOME. and walk two block east.

POOR WIND NEVER CHANGES Red Sox Park, Secured, Old Grounds Cut Up into City Lots—First Game Will Be Played on New Grounds To-Morrow (Sunday)—Great Excitement Among Fans, as The Defender Will Give a Year's Subscription to the First Party Buying a Ticket. Last Sunday witnessed the last baseball game on the old Auburn Park ball grounds. The park was sold two months ago by order of the court to satisfy the heirs, and will now be cut up into lots. Frank Leland's Chicago Giants, who have occupied the grounds for more than ten years, celebrated the closing of the park by winning their last game on the old diamond, defeating the Philadelphia Giants by the score of 12 to 7. The Giants, however, are indeed fortunate. They close at one record park and open up at another, more popular, near the city, better accommodations, greater seating capacity, 4,000 comfortable arm chairs, steel grandstand, reserved seats, boxes with a canopy shade, keeping you cool and protecting you from the hot rays of the sun. Manager Leland and that ever successful secretary, Major R. R. Jackson, are to be congratulated in securing the Red Sox park for their new home grounds. It is located at 61st street and St. Lawrence avenue, and is a part of the most beautiful residence district of the South Side, and an extremely fashionable neighborhood. The regular grandstand prices will prevail and the choice seats in the first seven rows will be reserved at 50 cents. The new park is reached by route. Take State street car and trans- ANCE DUNBAR.

The sons and daughters of Mrs. Elizabeth Revels Johnston, who departed this life June 17, 1910, are deeply grateful to the host of friends for their many manifestations of sympathy and love shown their mother during her long continued illness. Indeed, it seemed that these oft repeated kindnesses almost made it seem pleasant to be sick and helped to keep her cheerful, hopeful and joyful to the end. We are fully assured that those true womanly characteristics which were so prevalent in the life of Mrs. Johnston will be productive of great moral good in the lives of all with whom she came in contact. BLACK PATTI BUYS HAIR GOODS IN CHICAGO. Mme. Wallace, 3247 State street, has the distinction of having more big business with leading actors, singers and professional men and women than any woman in the northwest, as well as in Chicago. While a reporter was in her store interviewing her on her new invention of hair restorer an express order came from Black Patti (Siseratta Jones), paying an enormous price for a set of bangs. Then she told of the other great women of the race who deal with her, which includes a queen and a princess, Zunaak and Tjipossill of Uganda, Africa, who have already spent $500 each on their hair. Mme. Wallace is highly pleased with her business and will launch out into the wholesale business about fall. CONSISTORY IN BIG STREET PA- RADE SUNDAY. The Masonic lodges and Occidental Consistory will hold their annual sermon on St. John's Day, Sunday, June 26, at 3 p.m. The line of march: From the hall north on State street to 38th, east on 38th to Wabash avenue, north on Wabash to 29th, west on 29th to Dearborn street, south on Dearborn to Bethel church.

Durant, Miss., June 25.—A crowd of sixty white citizens hanged Otto Mitchell to a telegraph pole to-day because he tried to kill three men, at whom he shot on the streets of the town. The Negro was drunk and staggered on the streets with a big shotgun. When he reached Main street he reeled in front of City Marshal J. S. Kealhofer's store, where he found Kealhofer, his father and night watchman, J. D. Causey, engaged in conversation. He (Mitchell), fired both barrels, the double load going over their heads into the store. Mr. Causey was the only member armed, and he fired twice, hitting Mitchell both times. The first shot went into Mitchell's brain and the second into his body. A crowd gathered and it was but the short work of a minute to get a rope, place a noose around the neck of the dying man, draw his blood-covered form to a telegraph pole. Mitchell was a boilermaker at the Illinois Central shops. CHORAL STUDY CLUB ELECTS NEW OFFICERS. On Tuesday evening the members of the Choral Study Club gathered at their hall to make their report of the financial success of the club and to see who would be the lucky one to be president. Attorney J. Gray Lucus having refused to run. The names of Mr. Adolphus Harris and Mr. Frank Waring were slated, and although Mr. Harris, a business man, is not well known to the club, he made a fair showing, although Mr. Waring won the day with almost a unanimous vote. Mr. Isaac Dunlap was elected vice president, along with the following: Miss Cella Johnson (now in Europe), secretary; Miss Mattie Johnson, assistant secretary; Mr. Allen, treasurer; Mr. Mason, librarian; Mr. Jackson, assistant librarian. The board of directors were elected as follows: W. D. Williams, president; Mr. Duncan, Mr. M. V. Boutte, Mr. J. T. Yarbough, Mr. Cummings, Kemper Herald and Mr. P. T. Tinsley, conductor. DAVID D. SARGEANT DEAD By His Own'Hand After a Year and a Half Siege of Paralysis. Died May 18 Last at His Home, Barbados, B. W. I. "The evils that men do live after them, The good is oft interwed with their bones." Marc Antony. BY TERREVOUIS L. DOUGLAS. Sargeant will long be remembered by his host of friends. On the 25th day of last December he left us to go to the land of his birth, with the hope of recovering his health. One year and a half ago he was stricken with paralysis; friends from afar came to pay their respects. Never more sympathy was felt in a community. Sargent was both idolized and criticized; his eccentric disposition had made him popular. His blunt ways and radical ideas had won the admiration even of those whom he had affronted. Sargeant was a rare character in his own class; he imitated no one; he was always Sargent, and wherever he went his presence was felt, whether in church, in the lecture room, in the parlor or on the street. Before his fatal affliction he was a hearty, robust, muscular person, and his imposing stature looked the embodiment of intellect. He would stare at one with that light but bitter frony, which constituted at the same time the strength of his style. He never enjoyed or fancied the finer and frivolous adjuncts to society; he was always selfish and cynical; in a discussion he would win if by sorcasm; he was not only a sophist, but a rank iconoclast. Sargent made it a special business to "break up" meetings and infant organizations. Never did he experience greater pleasure than when he was successful in "breaking up" something. Next day when greeted upon the subject, he would say, "Yes, I broke it up; they didn't know what they were doing." Sargent was a gigantic foe to anything that differed with his own ideas. I remember only one instance he and I agreed upon the same thing. One evening we took supper together at a restaurant; when the soup was served I tasted it first and remarked of it having too much salt. Sargent these people can't cook." I was really hungry and wanted to remain, but the masterly voice' and unreserved action of Sargent made me follow him like a satellite. There was, undoubtedly, something irresistable in his character, and anyone knowing him will readily see it. His religion was doubtful, though he leaned toward Mahommedanism, which he held was the only and best religion for the black man. The black man, he claimed, has no business with the Christian religion, a religion that teaches serfdom and slavery; no other dark race wants it; he contended that it is a white man's religion, which he uses as a weapon to subdue and enslave with. His choice literature was of the old masters. He didn't think modern literature worth reading; he would always remark that after reading the masters you've got the whole thing; the rest are all copied. He was well and thoroughly acquainted with the old Greekian philosophers. Socerates was his favorite sage; Rythagoras also met his ideal. He had delved deep into the superstitions of the Hindos. The great works of Confucius was at his tongue's tip. Mr. Sargeant began to read when very young, and was educated in the schools of his native land—Barbados. Both mother and father died just as he was ascending into manhood. His first trip abroad was to London, England; he remained there a short while and returned to Barbados, which was no longer large enough to contain his person; the experience he gained on this trip had given him an unquenchable thirst for knowledge. He now began to read with more fervor, storing away facts, equiping himself for future contact. A year later he embarked for the United States and made Boston his home. Fortunately he had learned the jewelry trade under his father, which he had mastered to a high degree. Thus encouraged by his confidence in his trade, he succeeded in securing a position in a large jewelry firm in the city of Boston. According to the customs of the firm he had to start on minor work with a promise of promotion. At the beginning Sargeant was ignorant of American prejudice. A year or more went by and brought him no promotion, and with his natural sagacity he probed into the matter and consequently became acquainted with his situation, or color, if you like. Sargeant from that day on became a radical race agitator. Sociology was now his main literature, which he had practically exhausted. Finally he made up his mind to quit that firm and start a little business of his own in watch repairing, etc. This was not successful. He failed, as do the majority of those that choose this line of reading with the ultimate view of being a champion of that particular cause; such minds invariably fail in commercial affairs; the two will not harmonize. Having failed in this enterprise, weighed anchor and sailed for Chicago. Arriving here practically unfunded and conditions were such that he decided to "railroad" it for a while, during which time he pursued the study of law. He afterwards made several attempts in different enterprises, but without success. Sargeant was very ambitious to free himself from any work that was not elevating and in keeping with his lofty ideals. He had no liking for fraternal organizations and was not connected with any insurance company. He was never friendly to any one but Sargeant; he was Sargeant and Sargeant only. We regret very much his unfortunate end. It was indeed pitiful to see what a fall there was, from a giant character to a simple minded boy, as he showed himself after his addiction. I do believe that had Sargeant taken the proper precautions, and with a certain amount of physical effort he could have conquered that terrible malady. "One worm hole might destroy a full grown oak." The news of his tragic death came not altogether as a surprise, for we expected it while he was in this country; nevertheless, death in any form and at any time, is a surprise. We had hoped that the climate of the tropics might have assisted him; and getting no release, he sought death, the only healer of all troubles. His body was discovered by the police living in an open lot in the bushes and a revolver at his side, the bullet having pierced his heart. He was 34 years of age. The only living relatives, a younger brother and an uncle. Long live his memory. BOOKER T. WASHINGTON, JR., ENGAGED. Nashville, Tenn., June 24.—Young Booker T. Washington, Jr., is engaged to a wealthy young lady not many miles away from this city, although it was thought at one time he would marry a retired merchant's daughter of Boston. It seems true now that he will follow in his father's footsteps and marry a Pisk girl. He will marry next June, after his graduation, and live in Washington, D. C. MRS. MARGARET JEFFERSON STRICKEN. Mrs. Jefferson, 3155 Armour avenue, was stricken with a paralytic stroke last Saturday morning about 2 If You See It DEFENDE IT'S SO! · PRICE 5 CENTS THE UNITED STATES ARMY TOURNAMENT Under the Direction of the Commanding General, Department of Lakes, United States To Be Held at Grant Park, Chicago, July 4-14, 1910, as the Central Feature of a Rational and Patriotic Celebration of Independence Day. Projected by the Sane Fourth Association (Incorporated). Five thousand troops, comprising infantry, cavalry, artillery, engineers, signal corps, hospital corps, and aviators with the Wright aeroplane, will participate. Exhibitions will be given afternoon and evening in a vast arena with a seating capacity greater than that of the league baseball parks or any other outdoor place of amusement in America. No charge for admission. Many thousands of free seats. Plenty of good music by military bands. A model camp, displaying every phase of the soldier's life and work in the field. Opportunity for all to see how the United States "regular" is trained to efficiency, how he fights, and how he lives under canvas—what he is and what he can do under modern conditions. Some Prominent Duty Centures of the Exhibition. Building pontoon bridges on the lake. Construction and demolition of trestle bridges, under fire. Infantry and cavalry methods of attack and defense. The rapidity of action of modern artillery. Attack and defense of wagon train, carrying ammunition and supplies. Making and breaking camp with shelter tents. Construction and demolition of obstructions. Wall-scaling by foot troops and mountain artillery. Cavalry charges and intricate evolutions at the gallop. Then follow, each preceded by American flag and flag of the fatherland, and each having allegorical float and societies of uniform. Poles. Swedish. Bohemians, Italians, Norwegians, Canadians, Scotch, Negroes, Austrians, Danish, Hollanders, Hungarians, Lithuanians, Chinese, other race elements with distinctive floats, etc. It seems that our government has classed us as foreigners and placed us in an awful embarrassing position, as all the other nations will carry their national flag alongside that of the American. We are given tenth place, along with other foreigners. Why, they cannot explain at the federal building. We are American citizens. We have no flag but the American, still we will have to march as foreigners in our home land. CARD OF THANKS. Mr. and Mrs. R. I. Collins and daughter, 6323 Champlain avenue, wish to extend to their many friends their sincere appreciation for the kindness shown during the illness of Master Leroy. OFF TO RENO TO JOIN JACK JOHNSON. There is no man in the city of Chicago who has any more sporting blood than our friend, Mr. Emanuel Jackson, the undertaker in 29th block on State street. So enthused was he that he told "Dan," "I'm going to Reno to see that fair play is given Jack. I am going to follow that boy all over this country," and more than all he took $2,000 along to give Jack if he was in a pinch. Mr. Jackson thinks as much of Jack as he does of his own sons, and says he always encouraged Jack and told him the day would come when he would be able to tree Jeff and that he would sit at the ringside and sick him on; and if all things come out as planned he will be at the appointed place at the appointed time, for he left last Friday night on the Golden Gate Limited for ten weeks on the coast. NOTICE. The National Association meeting will be held at Louisville, KY, July 11 to 16. Information concerning the same can be had of Mrs. E. L. Davis, 3226 Prairie avenue, member of transportation committee. NEW PAPER FOR CHICAGO Rev. Alton H.

Some women scream when they see a mouse because it's according to tradition. None of the best people are going to the pole this season owing to the overcrowding. The Byrons are back and we are all rejoiced to see once upon some real gentlemen among us. Any man who loves his "country should be willing to eat out of the government cook book without grumbling about it. "Tom" Walsh left an estate worth $3,600,000, which is pretty good for one who once drove a mule team on the Erie canal. Old Abdul Hamid has only eleven wives left. And yet eleven ought to be enough to keep him from feeling like a forlorn widower. Editor Cook of the Milwaukee Weekly Defender blew into town this week. We are always glad to meet the breezy editor. Still, it is calculated to annoy a gentleman who is laboriously climbing a Pole to encounter another fellow gleefully sliding down. If we put into doing something for our friends half the time we put into trying to get even with our enemies, this would be a grand world. "War is, inevitable," says Captain Hobson. Perhaps he intends to start a war of his own unless somebody else makes haste to set things going. A Pennsylvania couple applied for a divorce because they are "tired of each other," and the judge turned them down because he is tired of such cases. After having been caught in sudden showers two or three times the intelligent man learns to carry an umbrella and thus bring on a protracted drought. A boy would doft his little hat, A girl would curtsey just like that. And both would use such words as these, "Excuse me, sir," and "If you please." As a matter of fact man is not in rebellion against buttoning up his wife's waist in the back. He likes anything that proves he is a con- venience about the house. Hon. Haynie R. Pearson, candl late for nomination as Judge of the Superior Court, met a few of our repres- entative citizens and newspaper men and laid a plan before them which, if carried out, will help to make Chicago a greater city than what it is to-day; we have pledged our support and will do all we can for a good, clean judge- ship in Illinois at least. The new Queen of Belgium is probably the first Queen in history to hold a medical degree. She gained it at Leipzig before her marriage, and has given practical proof of her interest in her profession by founding a free dispensary, which she visits almost daily. Her father, the late Duke Charles Theodore of Bavaria, won enmence as an oculist. The Defender is the only paper in the Northwest that has a front page memorial dedicated to the lamented Paul Laurence Dunbar. The Defender leads, all others follow. Our news is the very latest; we spare neither money nor time in getting the news for the people, and after getting it we put it at your door on Saturday morning, when you have the time to enjoy real good, up-to-date, live messages from all over the world. ```markdown ``` The Sunday school rowdies who were driven out of Jackson Park last Saturday are like the cornfield nigger who can't get along without the white man's footprint is registered on the seat of his pants.

Crowds from Friedrichshafen to Duesseldorf See Deutschland—Prominent Men Carried. --- Regular airship passenger service was established Wednesday for the first time when Count Zeppelin's great craft, the Deutschland, carrying twenty passengers, made the first scheduled trip from Friedrichshafen to Duxesdorf, Germany, a distance of 300 miles, in nine hours. The weather was perfect and the motors worked faultlessly. The average speed maintained was approximately thirty-three miles an hour, but between Friedrichshafen and Stuttgart 124 miles were covered at an average of forty-one miles an hour. The best speed for one hour was forty-three and a half miles. Count Zeppelin was at the helm when the Deutschland left at Friedrichshafen at 3 o'clock in the morning and sailed away on the trip that was to chark an epoch in aviation. The passengers were several directors of the Hamburg-American Steamship Company and the German Airship Stock Company, joint owners of the dirigible balloon, and guests. They occupied the mahogany-walled cabin between the gondolas, from the windows of which they viewed the scenery as the aerial car swpt along. Zeppelin steered for the greater part of the distance. The route was by way of Stuttgart, Mannheim and Cologne to Duesseldorf. It had been marked out carefully in advance for the guidance of the pilot and was followed exactly. There was no air stirring and the Deutschland made its way unhampered through a flood of bright sunshine. Regular trips will be made and many tickets have been sold for the first few days at $25 to $50 each. The airship is equipped with a restaurant, which will provide the passengers with a bus service such as in afforded on parlor cars of railroad trains. The dimensions of the Deutschland are: Length, 485 feet; width, 46 feet. Its gas capacity is 24,552 cubic yards and it carries three motors having 320 horse power. It was designed to maintain a speed of thirty-five miles an hour. Its lifting capacity is 44,000 pounds, of which 11,000 pounds cover the crew, passengers and express. It is expected to be able to accomplish a continuous trip of 700 miles. THEODORE JR. WEDS Colonel Roosevelt Present at Marriage of His Son. Weather typical of the month of brides and roses attended the wedding of Miss Eleanor Butler Alexander and Theodore Roosevelt, Jr., whose nuptials at the Fifth Avenue Presbyterian Church in New York furnish one of the most notable society events of the season. The capacity of the spacious edifice where the wedding took place was taxed to accommodate the guests. Then attendance of the groom's distinguished father so stimulated interest in the function that there were record throngs in the vicinity of the church edifice long before the hour set for the ceremony. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Dr. Henry M. Sanders, a great uncle of the bride, assisted by Rev. Gordon Russell of Cranford, N. J. A musical program was given while the guests were assembling. The bride was given away in marriage by her mother, Mrs. Henry Addison Alexander. The ceremony was followed by a reception at the home of Mr. and Mrs. C. B. Alexander, the bride's uncle and aunt. The young couple go on their honeymoon to California, and will spend some time there. The bridal gifts were many and valuable. The engagement of Theodore Rosevelt, Jr., and Miss Alexander was announced last February. The groom is 22 years of age and his bride 21. STATEHOOD MEASURE SIGNED. President Uses Two Pens in Converting Historical Bill Into Law. The bill adamitnig Arizona and New Mexico to statehood was signed at 1:49 o'clock Monday afternoon by President Taft. Two pens were used in affixing the signature, "Approved, William H." was signed with a solid gold pen, made to order of Postmaster General Hitchcock, who has done much hard work in putting the bill through, "Taft" was written with a big eagle feather pen, presented by Delegate Andrews, and "June 20, 1910," was written with the gold pen. The eagle feather was carried to the White House in a big leather case. After the President had affixed his signature, Secretary Norton used a blotter and gave it to Delegate Andrews, who wanted it for a souvenir. After signing the bill the President congratulated the citizens of the territories who were present and was heartily congratulated by them. The most intense heat ever known in western Canada was registered the other day when the thermometer touched 104 in the shade at some points, and it was 99 in Winnipeg. Many prostrations were reported. Clearings of St. Paul banks for May aggregated $48,524,865.36, as compared with $35,688,011.27 for May of 31 year.

At 11 p. m. there was only one person in or about the hall as guest who was not in full dress.

The annual report of the board of directors will be submitted—including as it does—the reports of the secretary and treasurer. These reports ought to be of special interest to you, showing as they do the sources of receipts and the causes and economy of disbursements; also the general management of affairs, methods, etc., as well as the struggles and difficulties encountered in the effort to properly maintain these aged people or whose care we are responsible. Theation is the sovereign body in affairs of the "Home," and from its ownership the board of directors are, five of whom are elected anly; hence, a large and active associa is of infinite importance. the indifference or lack of interest the part of our people toward this institution is indeed a shame and a grace; and to us exceedingly disraging. But we are sincere in the belief that a large and active association, with some missionary work on part of its members, will certainly live our institution publicity and hereby ultimately create and stimulate a renewed interest among the people generally. This institution needs you. It needs your assistance, your influence, your interest. We trust you will find it convenient to attend this meeting, and that you will bring at least one friend to join us.

The Douglass Center has scored two notable triumphs of late in support of its main principle of race' justice and race equality in the use of all public benefits, established for the general good of the community. The first was securing the admission of colored residents to membership in the Hyde Park Center, recently opened by the Juvenile Protective League in that district. For a time it looked as if the inevitable color line was to be drawn, but a joint meeting of the directors of the two associations was held at the Douglass Center, where the entire question was thoroughly discussed by representatives of both races. Soon after the board of the new center voted against the exclusion rule and the place is now open to all who wish to profit by its various activities. The second case was the rescinding of the rule drawing the color line in Gad's Hill Summer Encampment at Lake Bluff. This also was brought about through the aid of the Douglas Center, and must be a matter of congratulation to all lovers of justice and the open door. Dr. and Mrs. Woolley leave the first of July for two months' vacation in Geneva. Hl. Miss Lilian Chapman and Mrs. Edna Johnson will be summer residents, and the work of the Center will go bravely forward in their capable hands. The Woman's Club, of which Mrs. J. G. Jenifer is newly elected president, and the Sunday meetings have adjourned until fall, but the Boys' Club and other work with the children, together with social reunions among the students of the university, will continue. MRS. ELIZA WHITE"S HOME ON FIRE. Monday afternoon at 19 East 28th street, about 2 o'clock, as everything in her sewing room was progressing nicely, the machine not kicking off its belt as it usually does, and Mrs. White humming, the little song "At Peace with the World," a rap, very pronounced, was heard on her door. She jumped up and a reporter of the Defender told her her house was on fire. She, not fainting, and as brave as a soldier, ran to the rooms of the four postoffice men and the railroad men, who were sleeping, and awoke them. Meanwhile our reporter turned in the alarm and notified the office, where upon the editor, who was passing the street on the car at the time, dropped off and went to her assistance, she being a personal friend. But no damage was done, only the roof caught fire and burned at the southwest corner. The roomers tore out to the streets in all sorts of fashion, but after the fire did not amount to anything all returned home. Mr. Netherland, however, had to get in a barrel, it is said, as he only took his collar and the when he left. MR. BARTLETT BROWN'S BIRTH- DAY BREAKFAST. A few friends of Mr. Brown, 3222 State street, has been puzzled to find out why he had such a combination at his breakfast—a doctor, a lawyer, a singer and a manicurist. Since then the guests have all thought the matter over and laughed, as the joke was turned on the doctor, as they concluded Mr. Brown thought he might have eaten too much, then he would have the doctor to save life, the lawyer to draw the will and so on, but the whole matter was only a joke as all present were personal friends of Mr. Brown and he wanted them to celebrate with him (—eth) birthday. So Dr. Wm. Marshall, Mrs. Pattie Brown, Miss S. E. Foss and Mr. R. S. Abbott were on hand and had a delightful time. Mrs. Brown presented him (her husband) with a beautiful diamond ring, and Mrs. Jennie Gray, his mother-in-law, made him some of those good biscuits, which the party enjoyed. Mrs. Brown wore a beautiful Japanese sik morning gown. Al extended Mr. Brown the "many of them" greeting and departed. He left the same afternoon (Tuesday) for Frisco much joyed at the merry meeting.

He also has an article in the June number of the World's Work, urging the expenditure of a large amount of money for the education of Negro people in the rural districts. THE PHYSICIANS' AND SURGEONS' BANGUET. Monday evening, the 20th inst., the medicine men of the kingdom came together to celebrate their third anniversary at a banquet at one of the local restaurants. While one who knew could see that many a physician who is practicing in the city was not there, the board did not lack that gala spirit which is always in vogue at such times. The master of ceremonies, Dr. A. W. Williams, made a timely talk on united effort, and asked that petty differences and the like be tied outside their meeting forever. The ladies were all looking their best, and added greatly to the occasion. Mr. A. C. Elgar's string quartette furnished the music, who are Messrs. A. Dunham, H. T. Laney and G. Boarman. The doctors were highly pleased and left at an early morning hour for their homes. NEWS OF THE EMANUEL SETTLEMENT.

For Cleaning and Purifying the Skin There Is Nothing Like It Under the Sun 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.

It seems that on Wednesday evening about 5:20 at the corner of Dearborn street there was some dispute about the right of way between a 51st street car and the aforesaid bakery wagon. However, the car struck the wagon and scattered pies and cakes right and left. The horse did not stay to see the finish. Mr. Wallace was driving and was considerably brushed. He was assisted to a State street car. Many customers were wondering why they did not receive their bakery goods; well, the wagon was unable to proceed further. PROF. BOARMAN.

There's lots o' quaint of' sayin's I've noticed in my day— Big truths and solid principles Told in the shortest way. My father ust to have one, An' this is how it ran: "Talk's cheap, my boy," he ust to say, "But money buys the lan." I own the sayin's homely, Undignified and rough; But then, it tells just what you mean, An' tells it brief enough. An' when you git to thinkin' How short is life's thin span, It's well to min' "that talk is cheap, But money buys the lan". "Twont do to boast an' bluster An' brag an' try to bluff; An' don't you git to thinkin' This world 'waint' up to snuff." It is; an' while you're blowin' Your own buzoo, my man. There's some one sneerin', "Talk is cheap, But money buys the lan" Jack Barrymore dropped into a Broadway restaurant the other day and fate assigned to him a waiter who, to quote the actor, was "solid ivory from the chin up." Failing to get anything he ordered, he at last lost patience. "Walter," he said, "you are the ultimate thing in punk dispensers of gastronomic provender. Why don't you chuck this job and try piccolo playing at the opera?" "I no can play-a da peecalo," said the waiter. "That's all right," replied Barrymore. "Why waste all your incompetence in one place?"—Success Magazine. How to Ask and Have. "Oh, this time I should talk to your mother, Sweet Mary," says I. "Oh, don't talk to my mother," says Mary. Beginning to cry; "For my mother says men are deceivers. And never, I know, will consent; She says girls in a hurry who marry At leisure repent." "Then suppose I would talk to your father, Sweet Mary," says I. "Oh, don't talk to my father," says Mary, Beginning to cry. "For my father he loves me so dearly, He'll never consent I should go— If you talk to my father," says Mary, "He'll surely say 'no.'" "Then how shall I get you, my jewel, Sweet Mary," says I. "If your father and mother's so cruel, Most surely I'll die." "Oh, never say die, dear," says Mary; "A way to save you I see; Since my parents are both so contrary— You'd better ask me." —Samuel Lover. His Vision Obscured. Wes Wheatcake—When ye approached New York on th' ferry, did ye notice th' impressive sky line o' th' city? Baz Goodhunch—Naw; I couldn't see nothin' of it fer th' tall buildin' s. Cross Bearling, with Christ. I think of the Cyrenian Who crossed the city gate, When forth the stream was pouring That bore Thy cruel fate. I ponder what within him The thoughts that woke that day, As his unchosen burden He bore that unsought way. Yet, tempted He as we are! O Lord, was Thy cross mine? Am I, like Simon, bearing A burden that is Thine? Them must have looked on Simon; Turn, Lord, and look on me Till I shall see and follow And bear Thy cross for Thee. —Harriet Ware Hall.

JSIGALANDDRAMATIC BY SYLVESTER RUSSELL Quite a large audience assembled at Motts's Theater last Monday evening to be filled as healthiness, and Roffe's "Two Dark Knights," both acts of international reputation. There was a nice little reception in the midway of a good bill. Joe Jettison, who has long since enjoyed an acting career, was dressed in a sly style of dancing to which he has always added clever and original steps, finds the hold advanced and consumed by such an act that today is but a reduction to what its uptown-2 was long years ago. While his uptown-2 was long years ago, he is but an aunt of the old school. His act should have been modern- A.

There was another in which Jack Smith and Jimmie in showed to a clever advantage. The alien also set with special accent, reflected by shadow lights.

QUINN CHAPEL DEFEATS BETHEL AT BASEBALL Both Teams Played Brilliantly in Spots. BY NORTH M. JACKSON. A mixture of good and bad playing marked the Quinn Chapel-Bethel game at the 1960 World Championship, which was won by Quinn Chapel. 12, 10 Maxell, who essayed to pitch for Quinn, did fine business for the first two rounds, and then for the third Bethel got him for four hits, scoring six runs, and he retired in faveg of Sykes, who proved a puzzle in pinches. Maxell was touched up in the third for the three hits, netting Quinn four runs. Washington took up the burden in the sixth with the gunnar in the seventh, and a one run onstaught; they made two more in the seventh, and added one more in the eighth, bringing their total up to 12. In the ninth, the team made a score off Sykes, but they started the ninth as if they were going to make a whirlwind finish, and when the smoke cleared away they were still two runs shy.
