Mr. A. N. Fields, then took the floor after throwing the Alderman of the city to the seriousness as to the hard work they are organizing the city and what they hope to do in the coming week, when the campaign will be in its heights, after a general shake of hands, the committee filled an awaiting taxi and went to 5am 11am, where a supply was served and a general polligation was had. Merriam Gets Half the Vote Merrigan came within forty votes of having exactly half of the total vote on all Republican mayoral candidates, and more votes would have equaled the combined totals of all his four opponents. Seventeen out of the thirty-five wards were carried by Merrigan being the Seventh, Fifth, Sixth, Fourteenth, Twentieth, Twenty-first, Twenty-third, Twenty-fifth, Twenty-sixth, Twenty-seventh, Tw thirty-first, Thirty-second, Thirty-third, Thirty-fourth, whose total vote for him was 44,572.

The most significant feature of the result to many analysts was that the Merriam vote was nearly half of the total Republican vote cast, and just about equaled the joint following of the two parties, of whom had the bucking of part of the party organization, none of which was with the alderman from the Seventh ward. For some observers this confirmed the prediction that the independent voters, meaning those not contested in the primary, would demonstrate their surmurrance. The result was taken to demonstrate fully the efficiency of the primary law in wrestling from machines the control in this control in the hands of the people. Thanks Public. Mr. A. N. Fields, Secretary of the Colored Citizens' Merriman Committee and Mr. James T. Brewington, Chairman, on behalf of the committee issued a statement of gratitude to our many friends who resisted us in securing such splendid results. Of the fifty Colored precincts controlled by our organization Ald. Merriman carried the 10th president of the 4th ward, over which Maj. John C. Buckner presides, he supported Smulsky. The Colored headquarters will remain at 2701 State street where a workers' union is located, evenning the 7th, at eight p. m. sharp. HON. CHAS. GOTTRILL PASSES THROUGH CHICAGO. The Defender reporter met Mr. Chas. A. Cottrell at the depot leaving Chicago for Honolulu, Hawaii, which will be the base of his operations since his recent appointment by President Taft to the position of Collector of Internal Revenue. There were no other Colored newspaper representatives to witness the departure of Mr. Cottrell, who was accompanied by his wife and son, and a friend, Mr. Samuel Clark. It is the opinion of the white people that Mr. Cottrell's appointment to Honolulu will not meet with the approbation of the people with whom he will come in contact. This idea has long since been banished by the assurances received from the son's chief executive, and Mr. Cottrell will be the willfully memorable sojourn. The party was entertained at a box party at the Pekin Theatre Tuesday and expressed their great delight. Mr. Cottrell wishes to leave with his American friends the thorough conviction that they need not be good acquaintance with the willful good acquaintance of himself, which will reflect nothing but praise on the nation which he represents. MR. S. S. PAUL HONORED BY BRITISH GOVERNMENT. Mr. S. S. Paul, 3605 Forest avenue, was honored during last week by the British Government by sending him his family's coat of arms. Mr. Paul was born in Canada and his forefathers fought with the British in 1775 on the phalanx with Fort Calm, when his grandfather the British flag from falling into the hands of the Americans. This gives the Pauls the right to attend the coronation and be in the front ranks in the court yard, an honor that most Americans pay to him. Mr. Paul received a letter from London inquiring as to his whereabouts, but he did not respond. Last mouth he received a letter from the British consul at Philadelphia, which he answered, and on Wednesday of last week he received a letter from the British consul made out his citizenship papers last year, after living in the United States about thirty years. Mrs. Paul will have the unique distinction of being "Lady Paul," and take it from us, she will be the only one of the race Chicago. We congratulate our distinguished citizen and hope he go to London this summer he will return to his friends. This story will only be to his friends. The defender, the paper that gets all the exclusive news and "it's been placed in his parlor. The inscription reads thus: "Pro Pega et Republic Paul," with the shield and lion's head. CHAMPION JOHNSON IN TOILS. California Jury Recommends Mercy for Jack Johnson's Traction of Speed Law San Francisco, Mar. 3, 1911—The heavyweight champion of the world was found guilty of an infraction of the speed law by a jury in Acting Judge James Conlan's court. The jury was out fifteen minutes and after an argument returned the verdict of guilty but recommended Mr. Johnson to the mercy of the Judge, who deferred sentence until a fine will be imposed. Mr. Johnson assists his attention of the country before giving up. About three or four weeks ago Mr. Johnson was summoned to court and reprimanded for allowing his automobile to stand in the street alongside a car in a nearby store. The officer who made the arrest claimed that the car attracted a mob of curious onlookers anxious to obtain a glimpse of the famous champion and champions. It seems the authorities will be to "avate."

Two of Chicago's prominent drug-guards while in Gary, Ind., last Sunday, afforded that town a bit of diversion in the way of excitement by running at top speed up the main thoroughfare to the railroad station. The town turned out omnies and gave chase to the hurried supreme, until the station was reached. Upon an explanation being demanded it was learned that the boys were running to catch the train then pulling into the station, which, if they missed, would cause them to wait about three hours.

THE NEGRO FAST ASLEEP Will he Ever Awakes—Will He Begin to Protect his Home and Family or Will he be Relegated Like an Alien in his Home Land. STRIKE NOW, OR NEVER. The Younger Elements Are Now Place- ed in a Position to do or Die. They are the Younger More is Expected of Them. They Must Learn Trades and Be Real Mon. By R. C. Pin. Is the Chicago Negro one to sleep? Where was he Feb. 22 when ex-President Roosevelt was in the city? Why did not your son march with the 2,000 boy scouts that paraded the city streets? Why wasn't your boy sitting at his feet when the ex-President spoke to 5,000 foreigners' children at Hull House? These people who, in the next generation, will be your mayors and aldermen. Yes, even your governors. Where has the big Negro gone? Why wasn't he at one of the many boards on Wednesday to do honor for the race? They, too, "My God," are asleep. We wonder if that has weakness that they are not going where they are not wanted? Well! when the sheriff wants men to quell a riot or to make an arrest he is at liberty to call on the police services. Then why not to go all public places where you are not wanted? MRS.

Leubrie Hill's season's big hit, “My Friend From Dixie.” Nothing has been left undone to make this the most elaborate aud en- tertaining Colored musical show ever seen in this city. ‘The first act is fiaid in Virginia on the plantation of Jasper Green. In this scene many pastimes are enjoyed by dusky belles and boys. Chief among the party of forty people who offer the above, is J. Loubrie Hill, a character comedian identified with ‘the best Colored offer. ings in America, Hill plays a real type of Colored wench from the coun- (ry, who later attempts to force her way into society by the lheral use of money. Nothing could be more ridic- ulously funny than the awkward man- nerisms of the wench who knows more about corn pone or bacon, than wining and dining in society, The antic is advertized to make a horse laugh. ‘There is an abundance of catchy music by Will H. Vodrey, the Sousa of the Colored race. Among the many are “Molasses Candy,” introduced by Win Brown, the warmest haby in town. Brown Is the best neat come- dian since Walker retired. His part. ner, Shelton, is a low comedian of the’ Williams type, and introduces the most original dance on the staze. Others of note aro Louis Mitchell, Leona Marshall, Mamie Butler, Evon Robinson, late ‘of Cole and Johnson Company. This will be the largest Colored musical show here this sea: son.

"She gave evidences of appropriate technical gifts and a good degree of apprehension to her content. Her program was worse in her demands, but her success was deserved." GERMANY'S PLAN IS FOLLOWED Low Rates Made to Boarders Who Act as Tutors to Girls Who as Pupils Do All Housework—Karlsruhe's Experience Shows Good Results and Eventual High Wages. The servant girl problem is beginning to worry our stald and conservative cousins over in England, and in order to help in its solution the city of Brighton has embarked upon a new venture. With the approval of the town council of Brighton there will shortly be opened in that city a school to train girls for domestic positions. A house has been secured as a boarding house, the boarders to be teachers. The entire household work will be performed by the students under the supervision of the teachers. Girls will be sent to the house for certain periods to learn every branch of domestic work thoroughly and practically. The institution of this school is the result of the fact that servant girls are so frequently blamed for the way in which they perform their domestic duties, when as a matter of fact the majority of them have never been properly trained. German Model Taken. The Brighton school will be modeled on that at Karsruhe, in Germany, which is an excellent training school established by the Baden Women's union. At this place several women of limited means are provided with an unfurnished room, coal, light and board and attendance for from $270 a year and up, according to the size of the room. All the work of the house is performed by girls from fifteen to nineteen years of age, who pay about $90 for the privilege. The girls must possess the necessary qualifications of a good character, a satisfactory education, etc. In cases where the girls cannot pay the tuition in full they are given some help. The tuition is not the chief end of the school, but instead it is constantly borne in mind that the school was established to train the girls to be more efficient and more valuable. Boarders Are Mentors. The principal meals are served in a common dining room, though the boarders may have them served in private by paying something extra. The object of the course is to fit the pupils for all round practical service, and no attempt is made to teach them anything superfluous to the sound workable understanding of the duties to be performed. The boarders take a great interest in the students and frequently are able to get them work. The head of the house is a thoroughly practical, motherly housewife, and a pleasant home atmosphere pervades the place. A girl who has taken a course in this school is able to command a considerably higher wage than a "green" girl and also has a better chance to secure a position. A LONG WASH DAY. It Lasted a Week, but Came Only Four Times a Year. Every one has heard of the German and Dutch method of accumulating soiled clothes and of having a wash day only two or three times a year. Not every one realizes, perhaps that the custom was brought over to this country from Holland and that the Dutch settlers long continued its practice. In these days of the ever ready laundry it is strange to read of the laborious period which came to our New Amsterdam ancestors four times a year. Helen Everston Smith tells about it in "Colonial Days and Ways." The custom of quarterly clothes washings was maintained notwithstanding our summer heats and the immense quantities of clothes necessary to keep up the state of cleanliness required by Dutch instincts. A New Englander who had married a citizen of New York writes in 1760 of this practice, which was undoubtedly strange to her: PHONE HYDE PARK 3411 MME.

Fine Wines, Liquors and Cigars Our Specialty --- --- HENRY JONE A. F. CODOZ her quarterly wash this week that she has time only to send her love." The washing was done in an outhouse called the bleekeryen, where the water was bolled in immense kettles and all the other processes of the laundry work carried on. The work required not less than a week, frequently two weeks. During the time preceding this cruelly hard labor the soiled clothes were accumulating in very large hampers of open basketwork. This custom originated the necessity for the great stores of linen with which every bride was provided. PARSLEY SUPERSTITIONS Sister Beliefs Associated With the Plant In England. Many superstitions are connected with the herb parsley, probably through an ancient Greek practice, the graves of the dead being strewn with it and the plant thereby gaining a sinister significance. In Hampshire it is considered very unlucky to give a root of this herb away, since they say that if this be done ill luck will fall upon them. In Devonshire to transplant parsley is likewise to commit a serious offense against the guardian genius who presides over the plants. In Suffolk it is said that if parsley be sown on Good Friday it will grow well and flourish, but if it be sown on any other day it will not come double. In Shropshire they have a saying that where parsley grows in the garden "th missis is master." In Buckinghamshire parsley is regarded as a somewhat uncanny herb, and an old gardener once assured me on hearing me lament that the seed I had sown had not come up that it was necessary to sow parsley for nine times before one could get any to grow. This saying I have heard later in Shropshire, where they say the devil takes all but the last. Likewise, too, in Shropshire they say that to transplant parsley will bring about a death—Westminster Review. Vacuum Street Sweeper Arthur Seymanski, an Austrian civil engineer, has invented a street cleaning machine which does not raise any dust. It consists of a motorcar with a revolving brush which not only sweeps up the dust, but throws it into a large funnel, from which it is sucked up and deposited in a metal box. The dust is not left on the street to be collected later or scattered again by the wind. The box can be removed when full and be replaced by an empty one. The wagon is driven by a twenty-eight thirty-two horsepower motor and can sweep eleven miles of street an hour. Notice to the Public.
