S. H. DUDLEY SUED
RY SYLVESTER RUSSELL
Second Round of the Dudley-Russell
Goives Latter a Shade Over His
Opponent-$5,000 Damages Asked.
SOCIAL WORLD IN GRIEF.
Friends of Both Factions Sorrow at Disgraceful Action of Two Prominent Men in Professional Life.
There was a stormy scene at Worley's Theatre, Wabash avenue and 19th street, Sunday, February 26th, just before the matinee of the Smart Set Company. Sylvester Russell had met S. H. Dudley and Honey Johnson at the theatre by accident; both actors had greeted him with a shake of the hand. Dudley har asked Mr. Russell to step into a private wine room stating that he desired to converse with him. Dudley told Mr. Russell in a gentle way that he interfaced with his family affairs. Mr. Russell replied that as it was matinee time, he would see Mr. Dudley again and talk the matter over satisfactorily. Mr. Dudley replied, "No, we will settle it now," and suddenly struck Russell under the oye, without notice, cutting a deep gash with his finger-ring. The blood blinded Russell, and while he was helpless Dudley continued to assault him. Dudley and his sister, a singer and former student of Tusgee Institute grabbed Dudley, after the actors rushed Dudley hastily into the dressing-room. Mr. Russell at first took the matter calmly and would have reconsidered the affair owing to the fact that Dudley is a member of the C. V. B. A. if Dudley had come to him with an apology. After three days had passed and no apology was forthcoming and Mr. Russell had been hearing rumors about his victory in a fight that was a foul and not a fight at all, he decided to handle Dudley by law. He secured for his attorney Edward I. Alexander, Jr., a graduate of the Chicago University Law School. On Thursday afternoon, March 2nd, a warrant was issued by Mr. Russell and Dudley was arrested Friday evening. At the hearing Saturday morning Mr. Dudley had for his attorney Edward Morris, but all evidence was fine one day before the evidence of a suit for $5,000 damages, which was served on Mr. Dudley just before the Saturday matine. Mr. Russell's lawyer was present at the theatre in order to see the papers we was too late
to serve the Dudley mule. The cause on the trouble grew out of an article appeared both appeared before Russell and it was identified Dudley, or having carried his son to the Booker T. Washington banquet. Mr. Russell had secured invitations for Mr. Jesse A Shipp, the playwright, and S. H. Dudley, through Mr. Gale of the Frank L. Gale Piano company. Dudley had hired a taxicab to go from the Globe theatre, where he was playing, to the banquet. When little Dudley jumped into the taxi Mr. Russell asked Dudley replied, "No, he is going with us," When they reached the Dumas Hotel, where he was playing, Dudley suggested that the boy sleep up stairs on the coats. But Dudley made no answer. Then Mr. Russell decided to have him go into the banquet room with them. In introducing Mr. Dudley to Booker T. Washington he was obliged to introduce the little boy, who afterwards fell asleep on his father's lap. Mr. Russell did not care to have Dr. Washington think that he had brought the child to the banquet on his own account, and to have his son ignored is what made Dudley angry. The article which was submitted by Mr. Russell's attorney at the hearing now commemorates freedom of the press, so his lawyer, Edward Richard, ruled it out. The article in question read as follows: "When the Smart Set Company plays its return engagement in Chicago in February it is to be hoped that little S. H. Dudley, Jr., will not try to wear his father's pants abacd of season. To have a kid singing from the orchestra reduces the value of a legitimate show to the rank of a burlesque performance. I was much mortified a few weeks ago when I saw the Dudley kid climb into the taxicab to go to the Booker T. Washington banquet. When I asked Mr. Dudley if he hadn't better leave the kid stairs before going into the banquet room. Dudley made no answer. But I occasionally ask such things. It revolts me, but I do it. When I introduced the kid to Dr. Washington I was very much embarrassed. I knew the place for a child of tender years is in bad dreaming of play in the kindergarten."

THIS FAMILY UPSTAIBE, OR HOW
'MISS FRANK' WAS IN-JU-
DED
Unfortunately for Miss Etta Franklin, of 3616 Wabash avenue, she was forced to play the role of Mrs. Dingbat last week. The children of the family upstairs used their own apartments for gymnasium, woodshed and stable or anything else that it crossed their minds to use it or not in it himself. The effects were more than trying to occupants of the fit below. The outcome of the whole affair was that in one of the stumped children caused the ceiling of Miss Franklin's room to collapse just as she was passing, and she incurred severe injuries, as the heavy decorative center-piece fell and shoulders, inflicting a severe scalp wound and bruising her shoulder. It is a well known fact that a woman's crowning glory is her hair, and when Dr. Daleley arrived, he found it necessary to relieve Miss Franklin of her braids so that he might properly treat the scalp wound, the infliction of Miss Franklin's musculoskeletal Miss Franklin is somewhat the mend but still is a little sore in both mind and body. She is the niece of Mrs. R. M. Leach.
MESSENGER RUN DOWN BY
HORSE.
Master Gilfred Goodloe of 3643 Vernon avenue, a Western union Messenger, who attends school during the day and works at night, was run down by a horse and wagon while delivering a message on his bicycle, at 39th St. Cottage Grove avenue on Friday March 6th. For some time the little fellow was unable to tell whether he was struck by a four clinder aeroplane, or a four footed horse, but after regaining consciousness he remembers having something that sounded in his ears like four ata time. His injuries kept him at home for two days, and would you believe it, The Defender reporter call the ambulance at the time of the accident.
MR. R. S. WINSTON VISITS MOTHER.
Mr. R. S. Winston, of 1832 Wahash avenue and well known throughout the city, left on Thursday, March 9th, for the home of his mother, in Windsor, No. Carolina. Mr. Winston en route to Windsor will spend about three days at Hampton Institute, the Alma-Mater of the edite.
SAM'L. MASON FALDS FROM 2d
STORY WINDOW.
Mr. Samuel Mason, 26 years old, 3806 Armour avenue, felt from a 2nd story window on Wednesday noon to the ground. Mr. Mason lived with his mother at 3315 Dearborn street. She did not care to live there and moved against the will of her son who did not live out that far; she moved while she was out to the road, after she saw the situation himself at home, and began to clean up everything, after he got through scrubbing and fixing the furniture he thought the windows should be cleaned and began at mee to do so, in reaching up to the second half of the window the pull of water started to fall to the ground, just his balance and felt to the ground, just his back. Dr. Daly was in attendance and says he is a serious condition.
MR. CREIGHTON THOMPSON
Chicago's Bartone, Making Reputation—His Sister, Sister Is Understudy to Mrs. Geo. Walker, Also Making Strides on Stage—Minister's Children Are These.
Although Mr. Charles Creighton Thompson comes from a family long noted for their musical ability, he must be placed in a class of his own, for he has easily outclassed the brightest among them. His wonderful work in "The Prodigal Son," by the Choral Study Club, last week, is still the topic in musical circles. The seventies of the age and the add with wonder of the age, and the add with success, "than continued cultivation of his marvelous voice will make him a singer hard to equal." Another feature greatly to his credit is his complete mastery over himself at all times and a博学 manner that reminds one of a博学 manner that Mr. Thompson is at present taking a course of instruction with Prof Thomas McBirney of this city.

AL. R. TEARNEY FOR ALDERMAN
His Brother a teacher in Southern
Colored College. He Hires 20 Colored Men. Has Colored Private Secretary. Does That Man Anything to You and M in the Race of Life?
TO THE COLORED VOTERS OF THE THIRD WARD! LET'S HELP THE MAN THAT'S WILLING TO HELP US.
Albert R. Tearney For Alderman.
Mr. Albert R. Tearney, who is the regular Democratic Candidate for Alderman of the third ward, was born in Chicago, and has always lived on the south side, and his executive and business record is without ablemish. Mr. Tearney, is a self-made man which gives him the benefit of knowing how to deal, and reat kindly with his fellow men. He comes from a family that have always felt kindly towards the colored race and at present Mr. Tearney has in his employment 15 colored men. One of his brothers, who is located in Galveston, Texas, and holds the position of Director of Manual Training of Colored Schools, and he constantly has a fight on his hands on account of contending for the same training for the colored as are accorded the whites. Mr. A. R. Tearney has a keen appreciation of the existing conditions and needs of the majority of the people of the third ward,
Albert R. Tearney
and he is determined, should he be honored by the voters of the third ward, to represent them in the City Council, he will see that each section of the ward is given the proper attention, let it be Armour avenue or Grand boulevard. His-platform will be "Modern Street Cars on Cross Streets, Clean Alleys and the Removal of Garbage and Ashes Regularly." Mr. Tearney will deal with the voters the third ward as one big family, there every voter of the ward as a "Man," be every voter of the ward as a "Man," be every voter of the humbleest private in the reg ranks or the highest officer in the army.
Mr. Tennery has been one of the leading promoters of amateur and semi-professional base ball for the last fifteen years, until last season, when he was elected president of the Three-Ileague, but with that elevation his attitude towards the less fortunate fellow has not changed at all. He is still the same AH. The colored voters of the third and hard-won units their forces in this campaign. Mr. Tennery there is absolutely no doubt about being the next alderman. Mr. Tennery is in this sight to stay, win or lose, and any rumor to the contrary is false. Alderman Foreman, the representative of the "Silk Stocking Voters," gives it out, that he cares nothing about the votes of the poor whites and colored men of the ward. Therefore, there will never come a time than now to show that we are the solid-colored an insult, by giving the solid colored vote of the ward to Mr. Tennery.

clubs relative to some firms' methods of advertising their business by means of obnoxious pictures of Colored people, the more serious business was brought before the church. Mrs. West brought to the club's notice the case of Mrs. Nelson, the wife of the man who was clubbed to death by a policeman, the man's niece in a collection taken up by Mrs. West. Everyone responded to the call and in a very few minutes the clubs had collected $10.00. Other charitable work was also acted upon. There was suniversal regret that their president resigned, as we learn that she was dearly beloved by all as a club worker and a Christian woman. The other different clubs was to their credit. Much good had been done, and many cases of destitution relieved. All the clubs had money in the treasury. Four new clubs were enrolled in the Federation.
The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: Miss Macon, president; Mrs. Cooper, first vice-president; Mrs. Tragvas, second vice-president; Mrs. Guy, corresponding secretary; Mrs. Sarah Allison, treasurer. After installation of officers the meeting adjourned to meet at Glencoe in June.
THE BUSINESS MEN'S LEAGUE
BANQUET AT DUMAS HOTEL.
The Business Men's Laage gave its monthly banquet at Dumas Hotel Wednesday evening, March 8. The subject for discussion was "Organization and Its Development." The address was delivered by Mr. Gale, of the Frank L. Wright Museum, where the subject was discussed by the following members: Dr. George C. Hall, attorneys Walter M. Farmer, J. Gray Lucas and Laing Williams, William D. Neighbors, C. H. Green and others.
The meeting, which was given in the form of a monthly banquet and somker, was one of the most successful ever held at the laage. The next meeting will be held on the first Wednesday in April.
THE "ALSUE-BAY" CASE IS
APPEALED.
Mrs. Louis H. Ray, who has just been sued by Mrs. Alsup for $1,000, has very properly appealed her case, as the facts of the case seem to have been misrepresented. It appears that Mrs. Ray's reason for obtaining white talent to represent her defense was compelled by the absence of good owed lawyers who had been engaged by Mrs. Alsup, who seemed to have a corner on the colored talent. Mrs. Alsup was represented by Attorneys E. H. Morris, T. W. Brown and Rigdom, also a fourth attorney who is white, while Mrs. Ray had only one representation to represent her. The case was published in the columns of our preceding issue were taken directly from the docket of the court and from its proceedings.
MES. BERTEAM CHRISUP INJURED
Mrs. Bertram Chrisup, who was attending a funeral at Mt. Glenwood Cemetery in company with her mother, Mrs. Julies Edwards, and sister, Mrs. J. Simmons, was seriously injured while riding back to the depot on her wagon which carried the corpse from the depot and was taken to the wagon accidentally fall from the wagon, over her body. She was immediately taken to her home by Emanuel Jackson, who had the funeral in charge. Dr. E. S. Miller was sent for at once. Her sister, Anita Matthews, was also at the funeral. A Defender reporter was first to call at her home after the accident happened.
Julius N. Avendorph is going to make the fight of his life to aid his personal friend, Mr. Albert R. Tearney, who is a candidate for Alderman of the 3rd ward. Julius, is the best in the world when it comes to doing his work a good turn. Its all fair in love and marriage. If any of the political graffits fail to get to Mr. Tearney, they can blume his friend Avendorph, as Avendorph will not stand for the daylight hold-up men where a friend of his is concern.

FORMER DRFENDER CARTOONIST
THE POLICE LOOK DIFFICULTY
Deductive spread a dragnet throughout the South Side today in a renewed search for the "Hyde Park Apache," who has choked, beaten and robbed scores of women within the last few weeks. Two more victims were added to his list today, when Miss Joseph Arnedot, telephone operator at the Hotel Metropole, and Miss Fiona Hulme 123, Thirdirty-six street, reported that they had been robbed by a giant Negro.
Miss Arnedot was robbed within sight of the Hotel Metropole, at Twenty-third street and Michigan avenue. She had just left the hotel, and the Negro evidently followed her for a short distance in Michigan avenue. Suddally he sprang, wrested her possession from the door and fled. Guests at the hotel heard the young woman cry and pursued the Negro. He, however, outdistanced them.
Miss Arnedot's purse contained a considerable sum of money—she said she did not know the exact sum—and jewelry.
Miss Sundler was attacked and robbed by the Negro as she was about to enter her home. Her assailant smothered her purse from her hand and dismembered her cries attracted the attention of persons in her house. She had $7.50 in cash and $7.50 in stamps.
The above. The above article taken from the columns of the Chicago American have been very correctly depicted by our former cartoonist. Mr. Louis N. Hoggatt. Mr. Hoggatt has readily read between the lines of the book and thought have taken in the Hydie Park and the glance this cartoon is not only for the fit of our readers, but also for the benefit of readers of daily papers, who buy them more for the pictures they contain than for the truthful news which they are supposed to publish. Some people read a paper by means of the pictures and cartoons, and here, too, good for thought. If the authorities good for appearance the Hydie Park Apache, it would be well for his next victim to call the Taylor street fire department and have them turn the hose on him and the Hydie Park Apache will be transformed into a well-known rogues-gallery relief man with a leper-hued face, in other words, a white man. Mr. Hoggatt after a silence of nearly two years has again this presence in the land of men by giving him a cartoon which is a mester-piece. We can say that at this writing Mr. Hoggatt is sick in bed a his home in Benton Harbor, Mich.
MR. JOHN TROTT FALLS 100 FEET
AT GRAND CANYON.
CANYON HOUSE, Ariz., March 10.
—Mr. John R. Trott, Chicago, came near his death on Wednesday by falling over 100 feet down the side of the mountain.

When seen by a reporter and asked how he liked the canyons he said, "P-l-e-n-t-y."

At 4 o'clock Sunday, March 12, at Botel Literary Club, Bethel Church, Thirtieth and Dearborn streets, Mr. Thomas W. Allen, one of our able politicians, will deliver an address on the "Political Degeneracy of the Negro." This paper will be open for discussion, and is expected to create a great interest--among local politicians. A fine musical programme will be rendered. Dr. Marshall's paper on "Mgn. and Musical Delivered on March 5, before the club," was very able and showed that he had made a great study of the subject.
The meetings of the club are be in glargly attended every Sunday and th programmes are very interesting. Everybody welcome.

PROF. KEMPER HERBELD TO
WED.
Prof. Kemper Herrell is likely to be married at any moment. He seemed to be boiling over with that tender care for a loving wife. Whether the above is true or not the Defender is not so sure. He could walk on Wednesday evening to know well-loved ladies were on an Indiana south-bound car talking on everybody, and told of the wedding dress Miss <sup>1</sup> was making to get married in and how nice Mr. Herrell was on everything. While Mr. Herrell was taking our reporter had to leave at 47th. While the ride on south therefore could not get the young lady's name.

Dr. Washington passed through Chicago on his way to Wisconsin to deliver a series of lectures. When he detrained from the Lake Shore "Twentieth Century" train a Defender reporter encountered him and asked his mission. The doctor was surprised to know that a weekly paper had so much push as to be on hand just at night time. He spoke of the school's good future, $700,000 from a deceased million in New York, and how the people are beginning to appreciate his work in the South.

Hon. B. F. Moseley alighted from an elevated train in Evanston on Wednesday and started to go into the depot when a reporter for the Defender walked up to him and handed him his card. He said, "Did you come out on the train with me?" "No, sir. I was drawn from the main office to look for our main office by our Ari-telomeg system, and all porters along the North Shore were on the lookout." Mr. Moseley said "Wait until I get back, I will fix that Abbott alight with his unheard of system. Well, you fellows are O. K."

Why, she was never that stont and she hardly ever wore. Right there a reporter for the Defender, attorney and wife, and they both said, I knew it was she, and asked how was the baby.

The refusal of Pleestina to Vincent's hand was unacceptable and the team's reinforcement in athletic sport. This team's reinforcement is supposed to be superior to even boxing and it is best that all managers be required to shake hands with their opponents or be ruled out entirely.

We are now offering
Stock that is Better than Gold.
Gold has a standing value, it is worth no more to-morrow than it is today. But stock in this company enhances in value as fast as the company's holdings increase. Ours is the greatest Negro company in the world. Greatest in capital $2,500,000. Greatest in holdings, 167,402 acres, or 260 sq. miles. Greatest land upon which is now growing the greatest variety of the greatest products of the world. Greatest investment ever offered the race. We give a
Bonus of 5 acres
WITH every ten shares of stock, twenty shares, ten acres, etc. Said ten acres planted in henequen will beginning in the 5th year, return to the owner a net profit of eighty ($$0.00) dollars per acres, or $800.00 per ten acres for a period of ten to fifteen years. This land with stock is of the same tract and of the same quality that we are selling at $10.00 per acre. At the same time Your Stock Increased in Value and interest hearing quality as fast as the company's holdings increase.
The Safest Investment
offered to the race to be found anywhere, with an absolute certainty of handsome dividends on stock annually. The property today is netting the neat sum of $80,000 per annum. And according to the terms of our contract, within a reasonably short time, said profits will be coming into our treasury. Mr. ..... in the state of Vera Cruz, Mexico, where the henequen is in its infancy, is selling and setting out henequen at $200.00 per acre. Surely our land is a section where thousands of acres of henequen stand today, to verify our claim, is worth $250 per acre. And yet we will clear the land, furnish the plants and set them out for $60.00 per acre.
We Predict
that in 1920 there will be nestling in the state of Campeche, Mexico, the happiest and wealthiest colony of negroes in the world. Beginning, Nov. 1st, 1910 our new $10,000 mill turned out on the property its first bale of hemp. No later improved mill to be found in the Republic.
Certificate of Stock
