Police Must Not Harm Jonah's Meetings THE COURT AGREES WITH ATT'Y ANDERSON That Neither the Police Nor Building Commissioner Should Interfere with Jonah or Anyone Else as Long as They Are Within the Law. JONAH NOT IN WHALE. The Company Will Now Take Steps to Even Matters with the People Who Caused Trouble—City May Be paid for $10,000 by the Corporation Jonah had a hard day of it Monday and Tuesday of this week. The first two days were dark and dreary, but finally there came a silver lining and instead of him being put out in the street as the police officers would have it, just the reverse was true. Not satisfied with driving him out of the loop district and from corners on the South Side, a desperate attempt was made by the police department and other officials to close up their cooperative store at 3123 South State street. The trustees of the Cooperative Company are P. J. Hamilton, Edward W. Kennedy, general manager, who leased the property to carry on the business. Jonah was acting merely in an advisory capacity. When he entered the place, he was told by an officer he was a nuisance. Another policeman found fault with the door. Then came the sergeant and wanted to look at the door. Monday evening there came a crowd but they said it was no public place but a private concern. The following day the health department said the ventilation was bad. The building department said the door was bad. Then came the order to close the place. Attorney W. G. Anderson was engaged and proceeded at once for a writ of injunction. In court on Thursday at 10 a.m. m. Jonah and Anderson were victorious and the place is now open. It was proven in court that it was not Jonah who was operating the store, but merely a visitor to the new store, engaged to instruct the company how to conduct business. Jonah has been giving his time unselfishly to aid and help the colored people. All of his meetings have been peaceable. The only disturbance was that made by the police officers. Political gatherings, cafes and salons along State street have been disorderly and nothing said, but Jonah and his hand have been continuously molested. They have not given up. A big meeting will be held Sunday at the Skating Rink, 53rd and State street. After perfecting and inaugurating one of the greatest co-operative systems ever launched among the race, Rev. Jonah will leave Monday for the South. Mr. Edward W. Kennedy of the Wallace Bakery company will be in charge. REV. JAMES L. WHARTON BEFORE COURT OF DOMESTIC RELATIONS. Local Ministers Make Report to Conference. Rev. James L. Wharton, 43 years old, a minister from Buxton, Ia., while attending conference at Evanston, Tuesday, was arrested and taken before Municipal Judge Uhlin in the Court of Domestic Relations, on a warrant issued at the request of his wife, charging him with contributing to the dependency of his children. The case was continued and given to Mrs. Alberta Moore Smith, a juvenile officer, to appear before Bishop Lee with the facts. The court, through Mrs. Smith, will ask that the bishop see that the minister supports the wife and children. Rev. D. P. Roberts of Bethel church reported $800 in dollar mhoney, Rev. Wm. D. Cook $700 in dollar money, and Rev. A. J. Carey $171 in dollar money. Bishop Lee will make the appointments Monday. It is said there will be several changes made in Chicago. JULIUS ROSENWALD GIVES $25,000 TO BOOKER T. WASHINGTON FOR EDUCATION OF NEGRO YOUTH. On the fifteenth birthday anniversary of Julius Rosenwald, he made a gift of $250,000 for charities and of this amount, $25,000 was given to Booker T. Washington for improvement and elevation of Negro schools. Recently r. Rosenwald and a party of Chicauis visited Tuskegee. He is a great ad of Dr. Washington. The Chicago Defender. CIVIL SERVICE A FARCE WITH DEMO-CRATIC OFFICIALS. The intention of the framers of all civil service laws was, first, to secure efficient persons for public service; second, to secure persons from molestation because of political changes; third, to secure for the people the very best service for salaries paid; in other words, the person who served the public satisfactory was given a life time position. The framers of the law intended that so long as a public servant performed his duty concisely and satisfactorily they need not fear political influence; they were under no political obligations, but were obligated to the public to perform the duties of office for the best interests of all the people. The law prohibits them from furthering the interests of persons or parties. It also exempts them from political pressure and guarantees to immune them from political assessments and party work; their right to vote their voice, and giving them time to exercise that right. Even though he might violate this law he was given the right of a fair and impartial trial by a commission of intelligent and unprejudiced men. This commission was to be selected by a certain official according to their fitness for the position. The duty of the commission is defined as follows: to listen, and act upon competent evidence and recommend to certain officials their findings, controlled wholly by the evidence heard. Said commission was to be able to follow the rules of evidence as practiced in the courts of record and to render an opinion according to the facts, regardless of party, creed, RACE or color, disregarding party or personal influences. Practical and technical knowledge was to be the gauge of fitness for public service. Such was the intent of those who introduced and successfully passed the civil service laws in the federal, state and city governments. These laws were approved by the people. These laws were an incentive for the energy of many technical schools and colleges, causing special studies to be taken up and reclassified, specializing and subdividing many vocations, requiring special technical training. So rapid were these experts (of a single study) turned out, that the practical man became a burden on the market. To protect him, labor unions were formed, and their rules required a man to work a stated period before he could take a position. The engineer of years ago is the water tender of today. Mechanics of years ago were all the title implies. Today we have various kinds of mechanics. The prefix doctor can be applied to various professions. The civil service commission of today can do but one thing: execute the orders of those who appoint them. Their qualifications are the influence they can bring to bear to get the job. Their technical knowledge consists of partisanship. Their practical knowledge is how best to serve the party under the cloak of civil service law. These conditions will continue until the law is amended so as to govern these commissioners the same as courts of record. Think of a man taking an oath before a commission who cannot be punished for perjury. Think of persons enforcing the law who are not trained in law. Think of a judge on the bench who never practiced or studied law. Yet this is the case with many of the civil service commissions. Amend the law or repeal it. HEROINES OF JERICHO ELECT OFFICERS. The Herolines of Jericho, who have been in session in the city, closed their convention last Thursday night after an election of officers. The following were chosen: Grand most ancient matron, Mrs. Sadie E. Cooper, of Chicago; grand junior most ancient matron, Mrs. Mamie E. Bish. of Chicago; grand joshua, Mr. G. W. Kidd, of Galesburg, Ill.; grand secretary, Mrs. Mamie Moore, of Chicago; grand treasurer, Mrs. Julia Brummel, of Decatur, Ill. The next place of meeting was decided to be in Springfield, Ill. COMFORT AT THE HOTEL PULLMAN The Hotel Pullman, 3641 State street, is the wonder of the age. Seventy-five dollar ($75) chairs in rooms for only one dollar a night. First-class service. For cleanliness this place cannot be excelled. No wonder there is a rush for rooms. Most people are of a forgiving nature; at least they are always ready to forgive themselves. CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 20, 1913. COLORED MEN FOUGHT ON LAKE ERIE WITH PERRY Rev. Dr. Carey of Chicago, Who Represented the Afro-American People at the Centennial of the Battle of Lake Erie, Lauds the 109 Dauntless Colored Seamen Who Fought with Perry. FAIR CHANCE FOR RACE: NOT SATISFIED WITH LESS. Denounces Segregation of the Afro-American Government Employes at Washington as Unnecessary, Un-American and Un-Christian. Please That the Most Effective Forces of Our American Life Be Turned Upon Every Form of Discrimination. SEGREGATION CONTINUES IN WASH. Colored Men Still Holding On in Hopes of Accepting Dirty Treatment and Be Let Alone—An Educated Gentleman Would Throw the Job into Their Faces and Walk Out Like Mr. Cuney Did. Washington, Sept. 19.—Register of the Treasury J. C. Napier was advised last Tuesday by John Skelton Williams, Assistant Secretary of the Treasury in charge of the fiscal bureau, that he purposed dismissing or demoting every Colored clerk in the Treasury Department. Williams is from Richmond, Va. Practically all his time since becoming Assistant Secretary has been devoted to finding ways and means to insult Colored employees. He originated the segregation policy in the Treasury Department, and he caused to be placed the signs designating which toilet rooms should be exclusively used by Colored employees. That his policy of persecution of Colored employees is condoned by Secretary McAdoo and President Wilson is borne out by the fact that the segregation order is still in vogue. Last week three Colored clerks, presuming that the segrega- COLORED MEN FOUGHT LAKE ER Rev. Dr. Carey of Chicago, Who Repr People at the Centennial of the Batt 109 Dauntless Colored Seamen Wh FAIR CHANCE FOR RACE; NOT S Denounces Segregation of the Afro-A ployes at Washington as Unnecess Christian. Pleads That the Most Effective Forces of Upon Every Form of Dis --- The Centennial of the Battle of Lake Erie was celebrated September about thirty miles from Sandusky, Ohio, on the spot where one hundred years ago Commodore Perry won his famous victory. Rev. A. J. Carey, A.M., D.D., Ph.D., pastor of the Institutional A. M. E. Church of this city, had the honor of representing the colored race at the celebration. Ex-President Taft was the principal speaker. It is possible that it may not be generally known that 109 of the 430 seamen who fought with Perry were colored men. In his speech, Dr. Carey brought out this fact and also called attention to the bravery and heroism of the race in all the wars for the protection and preservation of our country and said the colored man had won the right to a square deal. He made a strong appeal to the American people to turn the most effective forces of American life upon injustice and unrighteousness and truly said that these enemies of our country must be conquered or they will conquer us. Dr. Carey's speech is a message to the American people from the great body of intelligent Afro-American citizens who are not satisfied with present conditions and believe in protesting against wrong. Pleading for a fair chance, he said: "We ask nothing more than a fair chance and will be satisfied with nothing less." Dr. Carey's speech was easily the most effective delivered at the celebration. He was enthusiastically received and was frequently interrupted by deafening applause. That even Southerners appreciate true method when exhibited by an Afro-American was shown when Governor McCrary of Kentucky met Dr. Carey in the crowded lobby of the hotel "The Breakers," the next day after he exercises and grasped his hand all said, "While I do not agree with everything you have said, I admire the umhood displayed in your utterances. Dr. Carey was accompany by his accomplished wife and boy were present at the banquet. The Centennial Commission provided one of the most elegant suites in "The Breakers" for the use of Dr. and Mrs. Carey during their stay at Cedar Point. Gems from Dr. Carey's Speech at Perry Centennial American history actually teems with deeds of heroism and valor of RALPH W. TYLER'S TOUR Of the South and West Is Being Planned—Former Auditor for the Navy to Write Articles on Each City Visited. Washington, D. C., Sept. 19.—Ralph W. Tyler, former auditor for the navy, but now national organizer for the National Negro Business League, is preparing his itinerary for his proposed extensive trip South and West. Mr. Tyler's itinerary will take him as far south as Texas and Florida, and as far west as Oklahoma, and possibly into the states of Washington and California. Many cities and towns in the South, and West have already urged him to visit them. On this trip he will write a series of articles telling of the progress the race is making in each place visited, naming and describing the men and their business who are making success. If possible, he means to cover every Southern and Western state in which there are a considerable number of the race. tion policy had been abandoned, were threatened with dismissal if they again used other than the toilet room in the basement of the Treasury Building reserved for Colored employees exclusively. There are over one thousand Colored employees in the Treasury Department here. William's announcement of wholesale dismissals and reductions has caused consternation.

Afro-American Government Em-necessary, Un-American and Un- ces of Our American Life Be Turned of Discrimination. damless courage and unwavering loyalty on the part of the "Little Brother" in this nation. Today we speak of peace, of universal peace. How can there be universal peace without universal justice? Today the American people are in mortal conflict with enemies far more potent, far more dreadful than the British fleet of armed cruisers, which must themselves be conquered or they will conquer us. Is the "Big Brother" really big enough for the task, for the responsibility, for the opportunity that is his? As a true American, one who loves his country and believes in this country's greatness and goodness, the "Little Brother" stands here today to plead for a fair chance. We ask nothing more—we will be satisfied with nothing less. We have done and are still doing our part. We have ever been loyal to the flag—no black archist has ever torn the starry banner down. We feel that we have not had a square deal. In many states we are disfranchised because of our race, and jim crow laws disgrace the statute books of every Southern State. Efficient and trustworthy Afro-American government employees in Washington have recently been set apart from their fellows with whom they have worked for many years, as if they were lepers. The "Little Brother" feels that such segregation is unnecessary, unfair, unjust, un-American, and un-Christian. And now, Mr. Chairman, and gentlemen of the commission, thank you in behalf of the 109 dauntless heroes who fought with Perry one hundred years ago, in behalf of the 10,000,000 Afro-Americans who love and honor the flag, for this opportunity of speaking for them today, I plead with you that as we celebrate we shall also determine that the most effective forces of our American life shall be turned upon injustice and unrighteousness as exhibited in every form of discrimination, disfranchisement, segregation, mob violence and jim crowism, the enemies of our nation, to the end that the day will not be far distant when white men and colored men, native and foreign born, South as well as North, shall look upon the shattered fleet of all those enemies of our domestic peace within this great Republic and may with truth exclaim, "We have met the enemy and they are ours." UNDERGROUND R.R. WOMEN MEET Men of the Same Company Disbanded Long Since, Women Still at the Switch, and Many Have Mounted the Engine as the Men of the Race Sleep Never to Awake. WE LOVE SLAVE SONGS More Than That, they Love Newspaper Reporters—Many of the Hundred or More Gathered Had Long Passed the Sixtieth Mark, and, Stranges to Say, All Could Read and Write—Ohio Sends Largest Number of Delegates. Every day in the year Chicago has convention after convention. Nearly every hotel in the city is a scene hourly where there assemble people from all parts of this and other countries for their annual meetings, and the meetings are given a passing notice; but one of the most significant to be held here was that of the Daughters of Jerusalem, auxiliary to the American Mystery. The men have all disbanded, but the women are still organized. An inspiring and enthusiastic meeting was held at Jackson's Hall, 2971 State street, beginning Wednesday at 10 a. m., and adjourned last night after a monster parade. One hundred years ago the American Mystery was organized, and John Brown was the only white man a member member. Only colored people were membvs, and this organization had for its object the freedom and liberty of "black men." From this organization was started the "underground railroad," and many of the survivors were in attendance here. Mrs. Virginia Spencer, aged 75, of this city and a distant relative of General Robert E. Lee, called the meeting to order. After prayer and singing she introduced Mother Elza Moore, aged 72, of Springfield, Ohio. Mother Moore Presides. Mother Moore, who is cheerful and as frisky as a girl 18 years old, was received with great joy, and as she began to relate "stories of the war" how she had held candles in the night to pass on the slaves from the South to the North, the bravery and fearlessness it required to carry on what she termed the "Master's work," there were tears seen strolling down the cheeks of these veterans. These noble women had a mission then, and they have one now. They hope to inject new and young blood in their organization—to infuse the spirit of freedom and equality into the minds of the younger generation. Delegates who are women bowed by the weight of a century took part in the meeting. It was a picture to behold—women who have toiled and labored for freedom's sake in days past, yet in no way tired, but snatching fresh inspiration from God, the giver of life and light, resolved to fight for freedom's cause, for protection of women, purity of womanhood, and manliness among men. Out of the American Mystery have come the United Brothers of Friendship and the Sisters of the Mysterious Ten. This organization was started in Kentucky by the late Father Gibson and now extends to every state and territory in the Union. Its object is to look after the sick, bury its dead and care for the widows and orphans. The Daughters of Jerusalem have purchased a home at Springfield, Ohio, where the old and decrepit are cared for. They have four acres of land, and from this quite a deal of vegetables are raised, the garden being worked by some of the inmates of the home. Buraker Council Entertains. Buraker Council No. 20 of this city entertained the convention. No set of women ever assembled in this city had a better time than these grand old ladies. Everyone paid them the highest compliments and extended to them all courtesies possible. UNITED STATES JURIST HAD NOT SEEN SUCH IN AMERICA Perhaps Too Much Jack Johnson for the Honored Sir. Baltimore, Sept. 19.—Judge Thomas Williams, of the Juvenile Court in Baltimore, arrived from Europe Wednesday of this week. Speaking of our friend, Mr. Jack Johnson, he said: "One of the striking features that I came up with was that the French papers refer to Jack Johnson as 'Le boxer terrible nor,' or the terrible black boxer, and speak of him as a good and plausible young man, who has been wronged by Southern people." This is the verdict of the French people and, coming from a judge in this country, the whole affair is certainly true. It is a pleasure to hear of such a verdict. Our Jack is not so bad after all. Prejudice and persecution is what has made "Jack" a bad man in the eyesight of the newspapers. WIDOW INSULTED FOR BUYING PROPERTY. Told That "Niggers" Were Not Wanted—German People Try to Keep Her from Buying—Hold Meetings and Send Threatening Letters—Her Father G. A. R. Man. A widow bought a piece of property on the northwest side and when the surrounding owners and renters found out that she was of the colored race they informed her that her presence was not wanted in that neighborhood and that they were Germans and intended to reserve that section of the northwest side for their countrymen. Undaunted by their threats she moved in and during the moving they were insulted by all such epitaphs as "Niggers," "Coons," etc. The Germans further proceeded to hold another meeting and tried to get a petition up to have the widow move. The widow's brother-in-law went to the corner saloon and asked for a glass of beer, and the bartender served him. The minute he was through the bartender threw the glass on the floor and it broke. He also told him never to be seen in there again, and who did he suppose would drink in that glass after him anyway. Threatening letters have been received by the widow and a local paper in that neighborhood has gone so far as to advocate lynching as they do in the southern states. GEO. WILLIAMS, HULL HOUSE PET, IS DEAD. At a meeting of the officers of the West Chicago Guards, last evening, Sept. 16, a set of resolutions were passed on the death of George Williams, the only Negro boy connected with Hull House as a member. He was a member of the band and took part in all the active branches of the settlement. Mrs. Jane Addams praised him to the highest. The day of the funeral the full band was out and his casket was borne by three Italians and one Jewish boy. The interment was at Mt. Glenwood cemetery. The funeral took place last week. JACK JOHNSON CASE IS SET FOR OCT. 4. Attorney Beni, Barrack, lawyer for the benchman pugilist, Mr. J. Arthur Johnson, has filed motions for a new trial. When asked by a Defender reporter as to whether Mr. Johnson would be in this city for the trial he simply said, "Do you suppose that I would be wasting my time on this case if I thought otherwise?" Celebrates Sixth Birthday By Doing Tango and Other Stunts. Buffald, N. Y., Sept. 19.—Miss Mira-Belle Henrietta Lee Hillard Wimp, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Ed Wimp, this city, formerly of Chicago, celebrated her sixth birthday by eating a six-pound cake, dancing the tango and giving a box party at a local nickle show. Before the show was complete a big lion got out of the cage in the pictures and Miss Mirabelle left the show in hot haste. The Mrs. Wimp is the daughter of Mrs. H. P. Lee, granddaughter Ruby of the Elks of Chicago. Rodrick, Toledo; Mrs. Anna Shrieves, Chicago, and Mrs. Marielle Foakes. Rourick, Toledo; Mrs. Anna Shrieves, Chicago, and Mrs. Marjorie Fancher. The session closed with a grand parade on last evening, marching south on State to Thirty-first, east to Wabash avenue, north to Twenty-seventh, west to State, and then to the hall. They adjoined to meet at Dayton, Ohio, in 1914. THE WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY NEWSPAPER etings Annulled NOTED VIOLINIST TIRES OF ITALIAN BARBER AS HUSBAND Returns Home to Broken Hearted Father—Young Life Almost Blighted—Friends Rally to Her and Will Try All in Their Power to Show Their Loyalty. The marriage of Miss St. Claire White to an Italian will be annulled. The Defender reporter was at the County Building on Wednesday and while in the Superior Court saw a bill filed by Attorney W. G. Anderson praying that the marriage be annulled on the ground that the girl was under age and married without the consent of mother and father. When the Defender gave a report of the wedding some weeks ago some of our society people criticised the Defender for stating that this promising violin genius married beneath her station. The Defender took the stand that it was just as detrimental for a colored girl of training, culture and accomplishment to marry a white man beneath her station as it would be for a white girl to marry a colored man beneath her station. While the Defender believes it the duty and right of every person to marry whom he chooses, it does not endorse the idea of a white man of ordinary station in life marrying a girl from such an excellent family and brilliant future. Miss St. Claire White eloped with this ordinary Italian. The marriage was town talk. In every nook and corner could be heard, "What did she do that for?" Her father, who had spent hundreds and hundreds of dollars, was away at the time on a run out West. When he arrived his wife told him the "news." He fell out heart broken. It grieved Mr. White so badly that he remained in off his run for several days. But much to the surprise of "father," it is said he learned that the courtship of the daughter had been violated by the "mother" and that when fine, respectable young colored boys of her station would call Miss White could not be seen; she was busy with her violin lessons. Yet, it is said, Mr. Italian man could be seen. Our boys took it for granted that Miss White was further pursuing her studies and went on their merry way. These were the young men that admired her and showered all sorts of attentions when she appeared, in public—sent flowers, boxes of candy and danced with her—took her home in taxis—but when she wished to marry she left them out in the cold. Nothing has happened in Chicago to dampen the ardor of young men towards marriage like this recent act of Miss White. 1 Mr. White, who resides at 5703 Armour avenue, is to be congratulated for having his daughter's marriage annulled for marrying beneath her station and without his consent. MAJOR FRANKLIN A. DENISON IS ILL Major F. A. Denison, powerful in stature and brain, every inch a soldier, a highly respected officer of the 8th I. N. G., has been confined at his home this week. The major contracted a cold last week and it has given him no small amount of pain and trouble. On account of his illness a number of heavy legal cases have been postponed. HAMPTON INSTITUTE READY WITH A FOOTBALL SQUAD. (Special to The Chicago Defender.) Hampton, Va., Sept. 18.—Hampton will have an AI football team this season. This school has made an enviable record for clean athletics. It has done everything to encourage fair play and true sportsmanship. The team hopes to play a number of games this fall. MRS, MATTIE THOMP- SON FALLS DEAD Mrs. Mattie Thompson, a member of the G.A. R., while attending an initiation meeting was stricken with paralysis at her residence, 2807 Armour avenue. At this occurrence, Mrs. Anna Perry fainted, and was carried to her home, 2753 Dearborn street. The funeral of Mrs. Thompson was held Sunday from the undertaking establishment of Charles Jackson. Jealousy always has a target. NENAL PUBLIC PRAISE DEFENDER For Stand Against Loose Methods Used by Our Young Men and Women. We notice that several of the pupils' mothers at the Wendell Phillips high school have got busy and also that the girls at the Grace Sunday school ceased to hold up the saloon corners last Sunday, and we are much pleased to notice it. We now suggest that the mothers of some of the younger ones at the Raymond and the Keith schools get busy, for we notice that some of the young girls swear and are as bad as the boys. Also that during the noon hour that many of the children of the race do not go home. These are children that range between the ages of 11 and 14. At the Wendell Phillips there are a number of the children, or rather, young people, who play truant, and it is advisable to watch your child's attendance record as well as their deportment. Now at this school we find that there are a number of girls that are fickle and foolish; that they come along the thoroughfares looking to see how much attention that they can attract. Last week there was a young lady in brown who persisted in switching herself and then turning around to see what male was watching her. Her underskirt was hanging below her outside one, showing carelessness in personal appearance. Several groups of young men were seen with books in their arms (telling smilty jokes. Warning: Look out, for we will surprise you some week. We intend to break up these actions. We also know of cases where the parents allow the children to stay home from school whenever they feel like it. Get busy, truant officer, for you are not performing your duties. REWARD OF VIGILANCE AT WASHINGTON By J. B. Winston. In consequence of the Democratic decision to oust all Negroes, betraying all confidence imposed upon them, with our heads bowed in regret and humiliation before the world, let the Negroes now acknowledge that it is their own fault. As perpetual Re- M. J. B. Winston, a Real American, publicans, these things should not exist. I make this appeal to the intelligence of my race, and urge them to seize the opportunity that presents itself, and let our rebuke, sharp, strong, and lasting, tally against every Democrat who stood idly by and, since the Negro's gratitude is a virtue, showed it by voting for Woodrow Wilson and Thomas R. Marshall, who promised to be fair and impartial, and live to the principles of justice; that both black and white is entitled to a fair and unprejudiced consideration. President Woodrow Wilson, in a speech to the colored voters of Cook county, said in words and figures towr: "Your people will not regret sending me to Washington, for I know your needs and will do my best in your behalf, with the same interest that I hope to serve others. That ought to be perfectly satisfactory," etc. I wonder if Mr. Lawrence A. Newby, chairman of the United Colored Democracy of Cook county is asleep. We are of Chicago, the city of great achievement, and we are proud of it. Chicago spirit has overcome every barrier set up to immeade Chicago progress. It swept from its path the opposition that rivalry has placed before it. It wiped out international jealousy, and humanized business rivalries. There is not an act of ours or a policy we are following upon which we are unwilling to see the searchlight turned. The meanest citizen in the world is entitled to that much consideration. "He that sayeth he loves Christ, whom he has not seen, and hateh his brother, whom he hath seen, is a liar, and the truth is not in him," says the Scriptures. Profit In Ostrich Raising That an ostrict farm is of more value than a good cattle ranch is shown by an authority who puts the value of a beef animal at $40 at five years of age, while an ostrich of the same age is worth $300.

A busy yet enjoyable day was spent at St. John last Sunday. Three inspiring and delightful services marked the last Sabbath of this most successful and prosperous year at St. John. At the morning service all listened to the welcome message from above as it fell from the lips of their worthy pastor. In the afternoon Rev. Blackshire of Mt. Carmel C. M. E. Church, together with his members, made St. John ring with praises unto God. This service proved beneficial in many excellent ways, bringing together a large audience at the evening service. At this hour Dr. Wilson preached his last sermon for this conference year, and probably the last as pastor of St. John. He has indeed accomplished a splendid work here, for which every member feels proud. Sixteen hundred dollars have been raised this year and the mortgage cut down from $000 to $480. All auxiliaries have worked together in harmony and have achieved many good results. All can truthfully join in with the pastor in saying, "The Lord has done great things for us, whereof we are glad." GRACE PRESBYTERIAN The Woman's Home Missionary Society held their meeting Thursday at 2:30 p. m. at the church. The Ways and Means Society convened Monday, Sept. 14, at the home of Mrs. C. C. Carey, 914 Emerald avenue, Evanston. The twenty-fifth anniversary. celebration will begin Oct. 5 and last for several days. The Friday following Oct. 10 will be in charge of the Sunday school.

The choir will have song service the fourth Sunday. ST. LUKE M. E. CHURCH. On Sunday afternoon at 4 p. m. a very large and appreciative audience gathered at St. Luke M. E. Church, 558 East 35th street, to hear the sage of medicine and surgery, Dr. Wilberforce A. Williams, lecture on "The Prevention and Cure of Tuberculosis." The doctor was at his best.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER SHARKS ATTACK MEN AND OVERTURN BOAT SHARKS ATTACK MEN AND OVERTURN BOAT Monster Hammerhead Fish, Reinforced by Others, Came Near Winning Fight. Portland, Me.—Three great hammerhead sharks attacked and came near causing the drowning of Melville and Frank Darling while they were fishing of Cape Porpoise, on the east coast of Maine. The men reached South Portland after a battle which lasted two hours and during which they were thrown into the ocean twice and the clothes were literally torn from their bodies. Two of the sharks were badly wounded. The third was SURVIVING IN THE WATER Threw the Men Into the Sea, frightened off by the men splashing water and shouting as if approached. The Darling brothers encountered the first shark when they were nine miles off Richmond island. As Frank had never seen one of the big fish, they pulled close. Apparently the shark was not disturbed, even when he prodded it with an oar. Then Frank struck the fish a terrific blow with a steel harpoon. For an instant the fish lay quite still. Then he appeared to recover from the blow and, churning the water to foam, lashed the stern of the boat with his tail. Both men were thrown to their knees. When they arose there was no sign of the shark. Fishing was poor, so the brothers turned toward Cape Porpoise, and, while fishing in that vicinity an hour later, saw a shark that was acting queerly. The fish would poke his nose heavenward and then lash about in a circle. They supposed it was the shark they had wounded and thought to put it to death. Frank, using a harpoon, stabbed the fish twice. The blows were not fatal and in an instant the fish darted under the boat, turning it almost up and threw the two men into the sea. A second shark rushed at them while they were still in the water and received a blow which stumped it. Then came the third, which was frightened away by shouts and the splashing of water. When the men reached port they were exhausted, and their clothes were in tatters. LOVERS MAY KISS IN PARKS Pittsburgh Police Will Protect All Real Sweethearts, but Woe to the Mashers.

Never before has there been display especially in the outlying sec- longs of the city such an array of expensive and inexpensive headgear. Mrs. Morgan bears the reputation of being an artist in her particular line, which accounts for her store never having what is termed a dull season. No purchase is allowed to leave until it has passed the closest inspection, so there is no reason why the seeker of a hat at any price cannot be suited here. For the past three years the Chicago public has waited for these openings, knowing that Mrs. Morgan with her vast experience and her exquisite taste will gather from all fashionable centers the latest and most chic in the millinery line. There is one great advantage to those economically inclined in dealing here, they receive the same high grade of material, workmanship and style as they do in the exclusive "loop" stores, at from one-third to one-half less cost. From present indications, the attendance will far exceed that of any other season. The delegates of Chicago Division U. O. T.

How It Struck Elsie Not the Place for It. Busiest Man. THE CHICAGO DEPENDER BLOODHOUND DIGS UP A "TREASURE" Camphor Scent in Police Station Leads to Caghe. FINDS "GREAT" HOARD Lockup Keepers of Chicago Jail Thought Negre "Runner" for Prisoners Had "Fortune" Hidden and Start Sherlock Holmes Search. Chicago—After three days of digging in the basement of the South Clark street police station, a treasure hoard amounting to $1.30 was uncovered the other day by Bob, a Silberan bloodhound, owned by Pinky Isenstein, who conducts a second-hand hardware store next door to the station. The treasure belongs to Sam Wilson, a negro, who for the last seven years has been a "regular boater" at the station. He is the only man in the employ of the police department who is satisfied with the salary he receives. He never has asked for an increase, and a few months ago, when Mayor Harrison announced a reduction in policemen's salaries owing to a shortage of funds, Wilson sent word to the mayor that he was willing to help him out. Wilson is something of a humorist. The only salary he gets is what prisoners give him for running errands. He takes coffee and pie and sandwiches to those behind the bars, and the usual tip is 5 cents. Sometimes he gets 10 cents for a run by purchasing a nickel cigar and charging the prisoner a dime for it. For a long time there has been a suspicion among the policemen at the station that Wilson was in affluent circumstances. The lockup keepers probably were to blame for the story that "Wilson had a plant." "That fellow," meaning Wilson, Lockup Keeper Leonard said to Captain O'Brien, "has got all kinds of money. He runs from twenty to fifty errands every day, and there's always a piece of change for Sam. I would not be surprised if he had several hundred dollars buried somewhere in the basement." Other lockup keepers told a similar story about Wilson's buried treasure, and for months a close watch was kept on him to see if he would go to the place where the hoard was hidden. A few days ago Wilson got into an argument with Sergt. Arthur Danahy as to the ingredients in childrins, a southern dish of which Wilson is inordinately fond. It ended by Wilson offering to bet $1 that he was right. Danahy took him up. Wilson disappeared for a half-hour. When he returned he had a dollar A dog is digging a hole in the ground. There are coins scattered around it. Three men are standing behind the dog, holding a hammer and a pickaxe. The Dog Had Dug a Hole. bill that smelled of camphor. It had come from the "plant." Danahy was sure there were seven or eight hundred more dollars where that camphor smelling bill came from. At that moment Bob, the Siberian bloodhound, wagged his way into the station. Danahy snatched the bill from Wilson's hand and gave the dog a sniff. He then led the beast to the basement and told Bob to find the treasure, without success. The following day Bob was again given the scent of the camphorated bill and this time he led the treasure seekers to the front part of the basement, which is concreted. Picks were sunk into the adamant composition and every man in the station who was on reserve duty was called out of bed to help in the work. When they quit the basement was completely dug up. Loud yelps from Bob brought the police on the run to the alley in the rear of the station. The dog had dug a hole about two feet deep at the side of the rear door. Once more the picks and shovels were brought into service and after a few minutes' work the treasure box was found. Besides the money it contained a presidential campaign button of William Jennings Bryan and a check for 2½ cents on a 15-cent drink. Cat Hah Third Set of Teth Huntingdon, Pa.—Dr. C. W. Fox of Roaring Springs is the possessor of a cat that has its third set of teeth. Some time ago the cat became weak and thin, and as it was seventeen years old, and it was expected to die. Finding that the cat was toothless the physician ordered ground steak for his old pet, and soon a change for the better was noted. Now the animal is fat and sleek and its fur is thick and glossy. Upon examination it was found that it had grown its third set of teeth'. Really!

TAKES BIG EAGLE AFTER HARD FIGHT Indian Then Carries Giant Bird to Town. WRAPS IT IN LARIAT The Eagle Had Caught a Lamb Too Heavy to Fly With, and Could Not Disengage Talons From the Sheep's Back. Claremore, Okla.—As Sam Catkiller, a full-blood Cherokee Indian, was riding into this place the other day, he heard a noise in a wheat field to his right. Turning his horse's head, he went in the direction whence the strange sounds came, and he ran onto something which came very near causing him to fall off his horse. A big eagle had dashed down into a herd of sheep somewhere, and had caught up a lamb, perhaps half grown or a little better. The eagle had evidently carried the lamb a long distance. When it came to earth, the lamb was still alive and as soon as its feet touched ground it began running. The eagle seemingly could not disentangle its feet from the lamb's back. Catkiller came up just in time to catch a glimpse of the lamb and eagle. He loosed his lariat from his saddle, and after several unsuccessful attempts, succeeded in throwing the noose over the eagle's head. It was with much difficulty that he got the bird's talons disentangled from the wool on the lamb's back, receiving many cuts and scratches. The lamb died shortly after it was released. Catkiller undertook to bring the eagle to town, a distance of three miles, but he soon discovered he had a most peculiar job on his hands. The eagle wouldn't lead worth a cent, and when it came to driving it was equally obstinate. Finally, Catkiller—after getting his clothes partly torn off, and being scratched and bitten—succeeded in thoroughly wrapping the eagle with his lariat, like one would wrap a bale of hay. Feeling pretty safe and secure, and rather gleeful over his capture, he lashed the castle A Could Not Disengage its Feet. to his horse's back, mounted and drove off. But the eagle managed to work one of his feet loose from the lariat. It reached out for something to take hold of and found the horse's flank. The horse shot forward about 50 feet the first jump, then stood on its rear feet, on its front feet, on its head, and then without any warning, laid down and began to wallow. Catkiller was just in time to get off, and snatched the eagle away before the horse rolled on it. He walked the rest of the way to Claremore, led his horse and carried his eagle. When he arrived in town, a tape measure was brought into service and the eagle's wings were measured. From the tip of one wing to the tip of the other, it measured nine feet two inches. WILDCAT CAUGHT IN PRISON Makes Its Escape After Being Fired at Nine Times and Caught in a Trap. Nashville, Tenn.-W. A. Pursley, an official at the penitentiary, trapped a large wildcat which had been committing depredations about the prison for several weeks. He disapproved of the looks of the animal and, drawing his revolver, fired nine shots at the creature. This so unnerved the cat that it tore itself loose and took to the timber, carrying one of Mr. Pursley's trans with it. Traps were set again and the cat was recaptured. A cage was made for the creature, but it bent the bars asunder and escaped by scaling the walls of the prison. Mr. Pursley announced that he was perfectly willing to quit if the cat was.

THE COMPANY'S GONE. The company's gone so I don't have to sleep On a cot in the bathroom no more An' tonight Uncle Jack says he's comin' back He's tired of that bunk at the' store. At supper I ate when th' other folks did So I guess we are settlin' down, It's mighty tough pullin' to be just a kid When company's hanging aroun'. It is a good time to commence getting friendly with the coal man. These chilly mornings make you wonder what you did with your last year's overcoat. The present-day Jonah seems to be having as much trouble as the historical Jonah did. In our opinion the only thing needed to settle this Mexican row is the appearance on the scene of the 5th regiment. "If the wind had only blown the other way" was doubtless written for the slaves of fashion who wear those vulgar slit skirts. There are a great many people on the verge of failing out with the Democratic party—President Wilson kindly take notice. In these uncertain times when hold-up men seem to be having full sway, it behooves the timid citizen to keep in the middle of the road—especially after sundown. The three scientists who descended 1,200 feet into the crater of Vesuvius tell us that the volcano is again ready to forthish its fiery substance. It would seem, with this pleasant prospect in view, that the residents in the immediate vicinity would consider it their time to move. Come to think of it, the immigrant officials would think twice before barring out Mrs. Parkhurst, knowing the damage she can do with her little hatchet; and perhaps she is coming over here to give a few lectures to repleasant her purse, surely we should have no objection to that. A Chinese student lately applied for admission to the state university of South Carolina. What did he do that for? Cole Blease, the so-called white man who disregrees the state by pretending to serve as a governor, says he will, as a member of the board of overseers, introduce a resolution not to allow any Chinese, Jap, Spanish, Negro or other race to enter said institution, except the pure white-blooded white man, not even the Cuban. This sudden outburst from Satan's playmate has caused no perceptible change in the motion of the earth or in the inhabitants thereof so we should worry. Harry Thaw can console himself with the thought that he is getting as much newspaper notorily as did Champion Jack Johnson, and like Jack, he is anxious to shake the dust of this country off his feet. They have a common cause: one is being prosecuted, the other persecuted. For the benefit of Adulant Louis B. Andersen of the gallant 8th we wish to speak that we glued from no better authority than the wizard of all detectives. Frank Walker, that he, Walker, who, by the way, represents three states in the detective state: Alabama, Tennessee, and Mississippi, has captured his man and intends landing him behind prison walls. "So to speak, as it were, darfoen, den." An exchange says: "Nothing would so surely establish the Negro in the consideration and respect of all the people as the emergence of the race as an efficient and prosperous farming class—the owners and workers of the acres that freed the nation." This is very true, but it will be readily conceded that we cannot all of the soil any more than all of the white people are had to be business men. Each individual must map out his or her own destiny and work unceasingly until they have reached the goal, there is but one road to success and that is by your own efforts. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People recently addressed a letter to President Woodrow Wilson on Federal Race Discrimination, in which some pointed questions were put squarely up to him to answer. Up to date he has been silent on subjects that vitally interest the colored race, and by his silence they have construed that he approves of the policy his underlings are mapping out for the new administration. No greater calamity could bail this nation than to have a figurehead in the president's chair who will jump at the beck and call of such wreckers of the constitution as Vardaman, Bleece and those of their ilk. President Wilson is in error if he thinks he only has the colored people to deal with, for every right-thinking white person feels the same. TO THE EDITOR Meridian, Miss, Sept. 10, 1913. Editor Chicago Defender. Dear Sir: After visiting Cincinnati, Washington, Norfolk, New York, Albany, Buffalo, Niagara Falls, Detroit, Chicago and St. Louis, we arrived home Thursday afternoon, Sept. 4, 1913. All well and as happy as could be. We thank you so much for the courtesy shown us while in your city. MISSISSIPPI TOURING CLUB. Abe L. Mutt, Pres. W. B. Block, Sec'y. VOTING IN KENTUCKY JOING IN KENTUCKY. At an election held in Kentucky two candidates received the same number of white votes for chair, Scooter Board Trustee, one of the contenders in addition received twenty-nine colored votes and claimed the election. When carried to the court the judge held that in elections for the office in question, colored voters may vote for Trustee for white schools and vice versa. Our friends are a queer lot—they are with us heart and soul when they are to be benefited by it—and it's only a question of which side of the fence you are on to get them to adjust the laws to fit the case, for the south the south are very flexible and what the south are goof often isn't good for the game, meantime, the colored brother is making his presence felt and forging ahead in spite of the restrictions. There is one thing to be thankful for—when the whites get to fighting among themselves they give us a rest. INFLATED PRICES The farmers have forced the wholesale milk dealers to pay them four cents a quart for milk, which is one-half cent more than last fall prices. However, the housewife needn't waste her sympathy on the milk trust for she will eventually reimburse them and then some. There is scarcely anything in the food line that hasn't scared in price of late, and it is a tax for the poor man to earn enough to make both ends meet. The difficulty being that the wage does not advance in proportion. In a great many instances it is not a question of supply and demand but one of monopoly, which only can be remedied by government regulation. We cannot blame the farmers for wanting to get all they can for their products, at that they never receive more than they are worth. When these combinations are forced to the wall the consumer will reap the benefit and products will drop to their normal value. In no other country on the globe is there such a juggling of prices as in the United States. --- THE FAIR AT LEXINGTON. Dr. Leonard W. Lewis has returned to the city from a visit with his family who are spending some weeks in their home-town, Lexington. Although he was having a busy day professionally, after vacation he was willing to be interviewed regarding the annual fair given by the colored citizens of Lexington, Ky. He states that too little is known of this great enterprise in these parts and a visit there at fair time is a revelation. His point Mrs. Lewis' likely is an exact one, Mrs. Lewis' feeling is a managing director and her role is been president of the association for over years. Mr. Lewis maintains if the people of Illinois can display for the Fiftieth Anniversary Exposition in 1915 such a magnificent spectacle of achievement and progress as is made in Lexington every year, then the affair will be worth while and highly commendable. In the matter of country produce, horses, swine, cattle and also fine wool, cattle and needlework and in all things which are useful for real living, these people are. excelled, and prove to the world the capabilities of the race. Let the sceptic look in on Lexington and we deify him in the glory of his praise of race achievement. COURTING TROUBLE. The Rochester, N. Y., Union says: "It might be the means of preventing serious trouble in years to come if members of the Democratic party residing in the northern states of this union were to make it manifest by word and deed, that they do not intend to allow the policy of that party on certain great questions to be dictated by the successors of those 'fire eaters' who plunged this country into the civil war of 1861-5." We believe the Democrats of the north in the mall are alright and when they wake up they are southern end of their party are numbed and suit themselves and making the northern brother like it, in the language of the street, there will be something doing, and they will repudiate the action of the mad men in congress or elsewhere who refuse to recognize the right of the colored man to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness as thoroughly as the white man, and they will recall forcibly to their mind Gettysburg and Appomattox. The south is sadly mistaken if they think the northern Democrats do not vividly recall for what their fathers fought, died and died. Is it reasonable to suppose they will still be and tolerate a systematic and exalted effort to annul the antislavery work of the last century? The "Union" voices the sentiments of the majority of people above the Mason and Dixie line. WARDS OF THE NATION WARDS OF THE NATION. After all these years it is just beginning to dawn upon the American people that it is an unwise thing to keep on treating the Indian as a paunishment and helped live a life of idleness, turning away from money clothing, food and shelter, and what? Simply because we still have that old traditional notion that we owe him a debt of gratitude, in other words, we helped ourselves to his hand and incidentally tried to civilize him. But all that maudlin talk at this late day, about our duty to them ought to have no place in the subject. Suppose, for instance, that the government had supported the Negroes since freeing them as they have the Indian, it would have a burden on its hands of which no country has ever seen. There is just as good a cause for the Negroes as for other. The reason this Indian question not presented itself more forcibly is, comparatively speaking, there are so few of them, and sentiment often is stronger than sense. The Negro has never been a beggar; he has too much pride for that, with nothing to start with but his hands the whole world looks in astonishment at what he has accomplished in the past fifty years. Here is a picture for the American people to look upon the Indian who has contributed nothing to progress or civilization, on the other hand has been naught but to this government. The Negro, who, to this government. The Negro, who has forged his wayward and has added much to American civilization and advancement. There can be no better field for reform than a readjustment of the whole of the government's attitude, not only toward the Indian but toward the Negro. SPIRITUALISM. If you hear strange noises, such as rapping of tables, rattling of dishes, etc., don't be alarmed, there is a convention of spiritualists in town and they are calling up people whose obituary noticees have appeared in the newspapers years ago. All sorts of queer things, that is, queer to the uninitiated, such as invisible slate writings, moving of chairs, tables and other inanimate objects, are happening in their rooms at the LaSalle Hotel, to say nothing of the strange, yet voices, emanating from the depths of the room, lightening some poor souls into hysteria wonderful thing, this spiritualism, if you simply accept it blindly you are alright; but don't try to figure it out scientifically or you will become skeptical. There seems to be nothing really tangible that you can lay hands on, and most of the foundation they had to stand on has been torn away by such adpts at the conjuring art as Herman the Great and Keller, who perform such marvelous tricks before your very eyes you are ready to believe anything can be done to deceive the eye and the ear. In old times it was called witchery and punishable with death. In the southland especially will be found remnants of that old superstition, as the man has a meaning for little movement and the older ones still eliciting to those old beliefs and signs. Fortunately the people of today are mostly of the "show me" kind, and spiritualism plays little part in their life. There may or may not be anything in it, but our people are superstitious enough without dabbling in that: The practical side of life will mean much more to us just at present. THE EDITOR AT CAMP LU THE EDITOR AT CAMP LINCOLN. The revile at dawn awoke me into a world canopied by fading stars and fleecy clouds, panoplied by tall green sheltering trees and the dew and gentle zephyr refreshing me into "peace on earth, good will towards men." But anon, the cannon's mighty roar, and then a new consciousness that I mingled with the Gods of war, the famous 5th regiment was if encampment at Camp Lincoln and I had the rare good fortune to be a guest within the lines. And let me tell you it was a week of thills, sensations, and moose that shall conjure with throughout the fight of time. The genius of militarism the color line, there can be no soldiers like those boys in brown. There have been none since Cesar marshalled his Army, regions and crossed the Rubicon. War does not depend upon education, not upon the battlements of dilettantism and breeding, it is rather within the realms of emotionalism, dynamic personality, forces fused by nature into the white heart of do or die. Those boys kept by unjust discrimination at the frontier of things American display a militarism, which should be an THE CHICAGO DEFENDER entering wedge into the real heart of this nation's life. We who live and see are too close to the scene to catch a good perspective, but history will make mention of the 8 regiment looking backwards down the corridors of time. Col. John R. Marshall, let us give him the flowers now. Listening to his story of their early struggles, of the hopes that raised them to the stars, of the defeats which cast them into the depths, we both shiver and thrill with admiration for him and seem to grow gigantic in body and soul, in the presence of his genius. A thousand black men just re-covered the threshold of thralldom and race proscription by men empowered by keeping time with the music of the republic in this organization and stand out in base relief as an example of racial possibilities when America lets them enter untrammelled into the arena of her civilization. From reville to taps each day and every hour there was doing at Camp Lincoln. Drills at quickening paces in the boiling sun and rife practice at the ranges exhausted man after man with always a volunteer to fill the gap where the comrade lay fallen. The red cross and the guidance of Surgeons White and Blue and the firing line to fill each soldier again into action and duty. History records in all wars since the birth of time, far more men disabled from disease than bullets. The army surgeon takes front rank as guardians of the nation's hands, the pulse of the army in their hands. To record the feelings that artise within me as I think of each officer faithful in duty and magnificent in parade, would require the pen of Kipling. With strong convictions of the black man's possibilities in any deevar where opportunity is offered. I call Springfield. I returned with all that I now change much magnified, my mind seems as if by magic into the sphere of superman, and I walked with head touching the stars. Give us even now, oh God of things that be, a place upon to stand and like Archimedes we will move the world. FREDERICK DOUGLASS HOME Soon to Be Sold if Race Loving Citizens Do Not Try to Perpetuate the Home of the President of the "Underground Railroad" of America. LET CHILDREN The Suggestion of the Defender, and Each University and High School Pledge $50 and $100, and Each Citizen $100, and Each Trustee to Pay Off the Debts. Washington, D. C. Sent. 19—Fifty years after our emancipation and thirteen years after the death of the man who more than any other single person contributed, by his agitation, to our deliverance from bondage, the old home of the late illustrious Froderick Douglass rests under a heavy mortgage, and the old mansion with its furniture, books, papers, art treasures and curios which were gathered by him is fast going to decay, and the fifteen acres of verdant land surrounding and belonging to the home is but a tangled mesh of weeds and rank growth of trailing vines. Sitting at the top of Cedar Hill, overlooking the placid Potomac River and the city of Washington, this home is one of the picturesque spots in the District of Columbia. The home was bequeathed, with all its contents and land, to the race as a memorial to that gigantic figure who braved the mobs before the war, declaring his race should be free, and who as vigorously contended for the right of suffrage for his race after Lee's surrender at Appomattox. An effort is now being made to raise sufficient money to pay off the mortgage and to put the old home and grounds in repair, and to make it a monument to the name and fame of Mr. Douglass and a place or reverence, the same as is now the late home of George Washington at Mount Vernon preserved by the white people of this country. It is figured out that if every Negro contributes but ten cents a fund would be raised sufficient to pay off the mortgage, restore the old man's home, and possibly, hide the grounds with a wealth of beauty and make the place a fitting memorial to the late Frederick Douglass. The property is now the property of the race. It will not be the property of the race long, however, if that mortgage is not lifted. The trustees of the home are A. H. Grimke, Rev. F. J. Gylmke, Dr. J. E. Moorland and Whitfield McKinlay of Washington; Prof. W. H. Grogman of Atlanta, Ga., and Rev. E. A. Clark of Louisville, Ky. Ralph W. Tyler of Washington, D. C., now national organizer of the National Negro Business, which was placed in the campaign to take the money to pay off the mortgage and to save to the race, to whom it was bequeathed as a legacy, the old Douglas home. Anyone whose race pride prompts him to assist in saving the home can communicate with Mr. Tyler at Washington. For ten millions of people in this year, the fifth anniversary of our emancipation, to permit this home to be sold would constitute a lasting disgrace. Smoked When Making Laws.

Blood pressure is the most important item before us today in the study of health and disease. We have just recently come to an understanding of the importance of this question in its relation to health. No physical examination now is complete without the taking of the blood pressure, and an intelligent interpretation of the blood pressure findings. High tension is characteristic of our present social and commercial life. A man or a woman's age and capacity for blood service depend almost entirely on the condition of their arteries and blood vessels. The normal blood pressure for an ordinary adult healthy individual is from 110 to 125 or 130 millimeters. Many people go with a pressure gauge registering high, near the dangerous and bursting point. Ten times more people die in Chicago and New York from high blood pressure each year than from typhoid and malarial fever. APOPLEXY AND HEART FAILURE. We are often shocked with the sad and sudden news of some of our friends, apparently in good health, having become suddenly paralyzed and unconscious. Now what is the cause of this sudden apoplexy or paralysis of one-half of the body, which we call hemiplegia? The cause is due to hardening of the arteries, or what the doctor calls endarteritis arteriosclerosis, which means that your arteries are shrunk, brittle and diseased, and are liable to become occluded or stopped up, or ruptured at most any time. And this rupture of the artery in the brain will call cerebral hemorrhage or apoplex, the blood being poured out in the brain causes unconsciousness and paralysis. The occlusion, or what the doctor calls embolism or clot, may come on gradually and slowly; whereas, hemorrhage following rupture of the blood vessel in the brain usually comes on suddenly and produces sudden unconsciousness and paralysis. CAUSES OF HIGH BLOOD PRESSURE. High blood pressure is to raise the blood pressure in the arteries above the normal. The pressure is usually higher in men than in women. This pressure is brought about by certain practices, habits and diseases. We know that more blood circulates through the brain than through other parts of the body, know that the function of the blood is carry nourishment and to give life to the tissues in all-parts of the body; we know that the function of the heart is to pump the blood and keep up the even circulation of it. Among the common causes of high blood pressure are the following: A. Certain disease states. B. Mental states. C. Use of drugs. D. Certain habits. Under disease states we have kidney disease, syphilis and diseased condition of the hearth. Under mental states we have excitement, mania, melancholy, sleepiness, insomnia, anger. Worry and anxiety generates a poison which acts indirectly upon the arteries. Therefore you should not worry. Under the use of drugs we have cocaine, strychnine, digitalis, lead poison, tea, coffee, tobacco and condiments. Under certain habits are strenuous life, the habit of constant excitement, surfling, thrilling excitement, rapid speed, joy rides, etc.; the consumption of large amounts of flesh food such as animal meats, which produce uric acid and which becomes an irritant to the tender lining of the blood-vessels, and to the nervous system; constipation, which produces self-poison or autointoxication, derangement of the digestive system. A dirty colon, which is a part of the large bowels, contains billions of germs. The secretion from the colon is poisonous and indirectly causes high blood pressure. Keep the colon clean. In fact, keep the whole alimentary canal cleaned out of the fermentative, putrefactive wastes and you will eliminate one of the great factors of high blood pressure and lessen the danger of apoplexy or stroke of paralysis. May Be Paralysis Setting In. Mrs. W. C. writes: "I am 45 years of age, always enjoyed good health, except a little headache once in a while. Had an operation some years ago for a tumor, have been feeling fine ever since until about a year ago. I began having a dull, heavy, queer feeling in my head, memory was bad, my mind seems cloudy, headaches nearly all the time. I am constipated; I have a feeling of numbness in half of my body; my stomach is out of order. Do you think I will become paralyzed? Am I in danger of losing my mind? What would you advise? Yes, you have some of the symptoms of beginning paralysis or paralytic stroke. I consider your condition serious. You should not take headache powders for your queer headache, but should see your physician at once.

QUESTIONS. taken, blood vessels examined and also your urine examined; have your stomach and bowel condition corrected into proper condition. This may be the case. You should not worry; you should follow the instructions of your doctor. NERVE FAG OR TIRE. Miss E. P. of St. Louis writes: "I have just returned from my vacation. I feel as tired and nervous as I did before school closed; I have a constant hurting at the lower end of my spine. The pain is greatest when I am tired. There is no swelling at the end of my spine, but pain and tenderness. What is the cause of this pain and what must I do to get rid of it? Reply: Cocecalgia. You have cocecalgia, or pain in the cocexis, the little bone at the lowest end of the spinal column. This condition may be due to tuberculosis of the cocexy following an injury, rheumatism, or nerve tug, fag or what we call neuritis. Second: Rest in bed, peace of mind, plenty of sleep, light eating; clean out your bowels. If no better, consult your physician for examination. HEALTH NOTES. Press Service, Department of Health. Our health is largely what we make it. With a plentiful supply of air and sunshine always in our homes will be also a goodly supply of bodily health and vigor. Dirt means disease and death. Cleanliness means health and happiness. Flat dwellers should not keep animal pets. Steam heated apartments are not adapted for housing dogs, cats and human beings together. Good milk should not only be rich and pure, it should be clean. The mildest cases of either diphtheria or scarlet fever are as dangerous for well children to be associated with us are those of the most malignant type, and the most dangerous of all is what is called the unrecognized case of either of the diseases mentioned. It is well known that from the mildest cases of either diphtheria or scarlet fever the most malignant form may be, and often is, contracted. Many times people will insist upon the early termination of quarantine for the reason, as they put it, "The child was hardly sick at all." For the same reason, too, they will think that the disease "could not be catching." This is a serious mistake, as the child with a light attack is just as dangerous, as a means of spreading the contagion, as is the child that has the disease in its worst form. Here is a case that illustrates what we are trying to make clear: A young married man with a wife and little child complained of not feeling well for nearly two weeks, but despite this fact continued at his work. At the end of this time his wife was taken with scarlet fever in its worst removal to the hospital, the baby was stricken with the same disease. Wun in ten days after his admission to the hospital both the mother and baby died. An examination of the husband, made at the time his wife was taken sick, showed that he had had scarlet fever in a mild form and was still suffering from it. The only trouble was that it was so mild that it was not recognized as being scarlet fever, but it cost him the lives of his entire family. Mild cases spread contagion than do the severe ones.

And if she will go at her dishwashing job with the idea of eliminating every minute of wastelabor, she will also quickly learn the importance of adjusting her dishpan to the right By C. C. JOHNSON. It was Uriah's last duty of the d to personally conduct the cows, and such of their near relatives as accompanied them to the barnyard drinking trough at milking time, back to pasture. Uriah was known as one of the most patient, inoffensive of mortals. This in itself was a serious fault in the eyes of Lucy's father, old Sylvester Graham. I can't get no complaint 'cause you' poor Uriah," the old man had said the evening before; "you're industrious, and would just use the kind of a feller to take hold of 'c' my place, but I'm 'raid to risk you as a soin-law. Somehow you don't strike me as bein' just human; you're too good." Uriah had taken his way home to the neighboring farm, where he worked, in sadness of soul. Even had he understood Sylvester's philosophy, he would have been at a loss how to put it into practice. Unconsciously, however, he had been influenced. He had learned the old words all day, and to remember first time, he felt an impatience with the tameness of his existence. It affected his usual gentleness. Letting down only the upper bars, he set aside a club, and with some homely expletives foreign to his lips, calced the cattle into hurdling the gap. Uriah replaced the bars and started for the house. His mind was made up. Midnight found him well on toward the barn. He had walked fifteen miles. A haystack he had set in a bed, and a pocketful of cakes unplucked his breakfast, after which he caught a friendly farmer's wagon. Urish had never been in the city before. His rushing life and strange sights both bewildered and intoxicated him. In his pocket was forty dollars, his outfit savings. To his mind this sum presented limitless possibilities. He was ready to part with the last penny of it in his mad determination to turn himself loose. The only problem with him now was how to begin. He had to course of a few hours spruce-looking young man spied him from across the street. He hurried over, as though he was afraid Urish might get away before he reached him. Up at the Forks the whereabouts of Urish caused much anxiety for a week or two, until Jeff Blaine, the huckster, who had paid a visit to the city, brought back word that he had seen Urish as a play-actor in a theater; that he looked just like he always did, and people were making a great fuss over him. It was conceded that Jeff had run across Urish somewhere where he met the real Jeff had been drinking agile—until the Forks saw the newspaper which said: "It is interesting to learn that the splendid piece of character work in "Up the State," which has brought fame to that talented young actor, Mr. Wallace Keene, is taken from actual life. Mr. Keene accidentally me on the street one day the prototype of his creation in the person of a young countryman, Urlah Hope, and has made him his constant companion. The countryman had come to the city to see the sights. If he has missed any it has not been the fault of Mr. Keene, who, being anxious to study him thoroughly, has spared no expense in his entertainment. It is understood that the pace has proved too swift for the young man, and that he is anxious to return home. He will probably carry back with him the pleasing memory of more different kinds of headaches than he ever before had. Yes, it was true, Urlah wanted to go home. He wanted to see Lucy again and have a talk with her father. He, somehow, had the feeling, as he readjusted the towel on his forehead, that he had qualified. Lucy recognized him when he reached the front gate, in spite of his stylish new clothes, and thought him splendid. Sylvester's greeting was carefully less polished. "You sly rascal, I didn't think it was in you. No, more o'me your foolishness; now; let the weddin' over, so that we can start the fall plowin'." (Copyright, by Daily Story Pub. Co.) New Record Needed At a political meeting in the town of A—the candidate was considerably heckled by the opposition, who had attended in strong force. But after smartly turning the interruptions to his own advantage for some time, a little man in the middle of the hall stood up and souted: "You speak like a grammophone." Similarly the candidate replied: "Yes, my friend. I speak like a grammophone. I speak from that which is within me." Like a flash of lightning the retort came back: "Yes, and you want a new record very badly." Names for Aeronautics At least one arepole has already been christened but the new monoplane in which M.

How Ed. Green Would Feel Were He Alive and Could See His Students All Over This Country—Bob Motts Would Feel Like a Millionaire. Miss Josephine De Vance, one of the most popular prima donna singers of the race—a possessor of a rich and rare voice of wonderful range—was the headliner at the States Theater this week. As soon as she appeared on the stage it was easily seen that she was a singer of no ordinary ability. She rendered several popular songs and was given a warm reception. THE LADY OF THE WEST Miss De Vance, Chicago's Song Bird. Miss De Vance is remembered as being one of the principals in the "Lode of Koal Co." of the Burt Williams Company, singing with great success "The Harbor of Lost Dreams." This was the year that the Williams Company received so much comment by the press for its excellent chorus singing, and it was Miss De Vance who led in this work. Miss De Vance will sing "The Harbor of Lost Dreams" on Saturday, matinee, night and Sunday. Those who know the singer remember in the good old Pekin days. She blushingly wears the honor of being a graduate of the Pekin Stock Company, with the late Ed Green and Jerry Mills as professors. From the tutorage of these two gentlemen has come most of the race's best actors and actresses. They not only made up the leading road shows in the best days of Williams, Walker, Cole, Johnson, Hogan and Dudley, but have taken to the vaudeville stage and are making good and receiving lucrative salaries. Out of respect for the late Robert J. Motts, founder and owner of the Pekin, and who was dean of the school, professional opportunity should form an association to have a reunion, at which time all of the old Pekin players could assemble and honor the name of the man who has meant so much to the theatrical profession. Friday night, "The Bondsman," a two-reel Broncho feature portraying hardships of early settlers, their encounter with the Indians, also a spectacular fire at sea was shown. "Satan." This afternoon and tonight, "Satan," a drama of humanity, in five reels, will be seen by special request. This is one of the greatest pictures of the day and should be seen.

The Royal Hawaiian Duo, composed of Madam Rosa Lee Tyler and Keoki Gerwood, is at Washington, D.C., this week and made a fine impression. They have a two weeks' engagement at the Capitol City. Miss Bertha Bauman, the accomplished musician of Boston, Mass., who has been here several weeks, left on Wednesday, for her home. While here she was the guest of Mrs. John White and Miss Maude Taylor. A number of theater parties were given in her honor, the last by Dr. H. Reginald Smith. Miss Bauman is a successful teacher of music at Boston. Garfield Wilson's Orchestra will assist at Oakland Hall, Oct. 16th. The original Jubilee Singers, managed by Mr. and Mrs. W. C. Buckner, 6424 Vincennes avenue, have returned to the city from a successful six weeks' trip doing Chautaqua work, and are busy visiting friends and relatives. Mr. Charles Williams and wife and his company of singers have arrived in the city after a most successful trip in the West and Canada. Before going East, it is reported that this company will give a big recital at Quinn Chapel under the direction of a local press agent. Hear Mrs. Marie P. Merrill and Mae E. Smith, Oct. 16th, at Oakland Hall. Both are singers of excellent reputation. The Y. M. C. A. Symphony Orchestra, under the direction of Mr. Joe Jordan, assisted by Mr. Wm. Dorsey, will play for Mr. Julius Rosenwald and party, who will inspect the building. The Monogram Theater is being renovated and new scenery installed. Why not something done to the dressing room?

A grand Oriental Bazar will be given by the Chicago Union Charity Club Monday and Tuesday, Sept. 29th and 30th, at Jackson Hall, 2961 State street, instead of Johnson Hall. Good program each evening. Splendid dinner will be served each day from 11:30 a. m. to 7:30 p. m. Mrs. Irene Wynne, of St. Paul, Minn., entertained enjoyably for Mrs. J. A. Lee, of St. Paul. "Pitt," a delightful play, was staged, after which a ten-course dinner was served. Denslow & Denslow, Purcell & Thornton, Madam Glenn and John Cooper were at the Grand this week. The Grand. The advent of cool weather has brought to the Grand the old enthusiastic patrons of this playhouse in great numbers, seats being practically sold out many nights before the rise of the curtain. This week's bill opened with a colored act, "Texas Tommy with His Whirlwind Dancers." Their singing was not quite up to the standard, but they made a neat appearance in their costumes and their dancing made up for their deficiency in other lines. Burns and Lynn followed in a somewhat similar act and received rounds of applause for their cleverness with their lower extremities. Orilla Rrabee & Co. presented a neat little playlet entitled "A Strenuous Daisy," in which some very good acting was displayed. They were easily the big noise on the bill. Brown & Jackson, conversationalists, were better than good. They slipped over a few new ones that kept the house in an uproar, besides singing and dancing well. Alvin & Kenney, Leading Men's Fu Johnson & Humphrey Giving to the public just what they have been demanding for the well dresser. t. Chicago aerial comedy gymnasts, closed the bill and rounded up an enjoyable evening's performance. The Monogram. The offering this week at the Monogram seemed to especially please the patrons of this little vaudeville house. Purcell & Thornton, John Cooper, Denzlow & Denzlow and Isabelle Glenn were the bright particular teams and artists that brought forth round after round of genuine applause. The Monogram is the one theater on the "Stroll" that constantly plays to full houses. They have a class of people that are distinctively Monogramites, so the management should worry about dull seasons. MRS. NELLIE BADGER WITH MME. FISKE Mrs. Badger, 3514 State street, one of the city's little business women, will be companion to Mme. Fiske in the theatrical tours through the United States and Canada. Mrs. Badger seems to have a way to find something to do and if she cannot do that she makes something. Her schoolmate and chum, Mrs. Kelley, is now considering a trip around the world, to be gone for three years. Both these young women were born under a lucky star. THE Y. M. C. A. Rev. Jefferson, of Hope Presbyterian church, spoke to a large audience of men at the Y. M. C. A. last Sunday. His impressions were such that he left his check for a membership ticket for his son, who will be in the high school division. Mr. Tucker, the executive secretary, spoke at the men's day meeting at St. Mark's last Sunday morning after the sermon by Rev. Robinson. The subject of the sermon was, "Is the Young Man Safe?" Mr. Tucker showed that some young men he had known who had been safe in the association met disgrace and some of them death after they quit spending their time there. The boys' work director conducted Mrs. Dr. White's class at St. Mark's Sunday school last Sunday and reviewed the lesson with the school, emphasizing the 5th commandment. At the membership social last Friday night, the cabinet for the boys' division was elected by the director. It consists of John Peeples, Bernard Lewis, secretary; Frank Legore, Walter Hughes and James R. Bell, John Peeples was elected captain of the basketball and Frank Legore captain of the indoor baseball team. On Saturday morning the baseball team defeated the Russell Colts on the 33rd street playgrounds, 9 to 6, and in the afternoon defeated the Raymond school indoor team in the gymnasium 14 to 10. This Saturday the Wendell Phillips high school boys will have games in the gymnasium and a swim afterwards. Capt. Legore is trying to arrange indoor games with teams representing various schools. The Boys' Sunday - afternoon Bible class is becoming very popular, as is their orchestra, which now numbers eighteen pieces. Next Sunday afternoon Mr. L. Wilbur Messer, general secretary of the Chicago association, will speak at the four o'clock meeting, and the boys' orchestra will play. Men ought to appreciate a combination like this. This will be one of Mr. Messer's farewell talks before he starts around the world to observe Y. M. C. A. work in the different countries. All the three hundred and two members ought surely to be here. On Wednesday evening the first senior members' social will be held. Mr. Messer will be here and strive to bring Messrs. Rosenwald and Harris, Mrs. Swift and other large contributors with him to inspect the building. There will be music by the quartette, games in the gymnasium, swimming and general sociability. Members will bring their gentlemen friends only this time. At the general meeting of employed officers at the central association last Tuesday Mr. Messer told the men the Wabash avenue department had the best building of all the departments and that it is perfectly kept.

She was telling of her friend's hairbreadth escape at the time of an earthquake: "Why," she exclaimed in austere tone, "when Tom went to bed everything was perfectly quiet, and when he woke up—there beside him was a yawning abbess!" S. W. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER HOTEL MAN TAKES CHARGE OF PALMER HOUSE CAFE HOTEL MAN TAKES CHARGE OF PALMER HOUSE CAFE First Race Man to Hold Position for Twenty Years—Mr. George Known Throughout the Country—Step Means Much to the Race in This City. For the first time in twenty years the Palmer House, known the world over as one of Chicago's leading hotels, is to have a race man as headwaiter in the cafe and annex—Mr. J. Matthis George, of Atlanta Ga.—formerly head waiter at the Piedmont hotel of Atlanta, and considered by Harvey and Woods Hotel Company of Boston as their best man. Mr. George's friends here and in his home town are elated over his success and are sure that he will make good. When interviewed by a Defender reporter, he said that he was highly pleased with the crew and that he sees fit to make but a few changes among them. He will retain Mr. W. H. Craik, of Washington, D. C., as his private secretary, as Mr. Craig has acted in that capacity for three years for the white head waiters. CHETAM HUNTER HAS RETURNED. Mr. Chetam Hunter, of this city, formerly of Nashville, Tenn., returned to this city to spend the winter after a three years' absence. Mr. Hunter went to the far northwest for his health after the doctors here had informed him that he would not live in this climate. He has been where they use fire in the summer nights and where it gets 10 below along in September, and 50 and 60 in the middle of the winter. He will spend the winter here and return to Canada next spring. He weighed 123 when he left and weighs 176 now. MRS. WASHINGTON TO USE KNIFE AND FORK. South Dend, Ind., Sept. 19.—The Knife and Fork Club, of this city, has invited Mrs. Booker T. Washington to be a guest of the club on Oct. 18. There are but about a dozen knife and fork clubs in the United States, they being regarded among the most exclusive women organizations. This is the first time a colored woman has ever been known to be extended an invitation to be the guest of a knife and fork club. DEAD RETURNS TO LIFE Mr. Walter Harris, popular with the boys about the town, who went West last year for his health, was in town, and left Wednesday for Denver. Mr. Harris was surprised to learn that his many friends had given him up as dead after a false report had been circulated around last winter to that effect. Mr. Harris was reported to have died in Las Vegas, N. M., where he had gone to recover his health. He looks fine and was only sorry that his friend, Mr. Chas, Lett, had closed and gone East. SOUTHERN SECRET ORDERS SUPPORT AND FOUND SCHOOL. Race Beginning to See Importance of Using Some of Their Money or a Little More of It to Fill the Long-felt Need, for the South Is Still In Need of Fifty Tuskegees. (Special to The Chicago Defender.) Birmingham, Ala., Sept. 19.—From every part of the state representative men and women were in Birmingham today to witness the opening of Tuggle Institute. Music, addresses, sermons and prayers marked the opening exercises. Tuggle Institute is located on Enon Ridge, and is one of the largest schools in the state. It was established by Mrs. Carrie A. Tuggle, who is one of the most remarkable women of the race in the country, and a lover of her race. She is at the head of the Rising Sons and Daughters of Protection and the Grand Court of Calanthe, and these two organizations come together and support the school. Some of the strongest young men and women of the country are members of the faculty. "Gloria" was the opening anthem by the school, and Mrs. Leana May Sherrod, of Bessemer, made the opening prayer. "A Closet Walk with God" was the next song by the school, and Rev. Carson, pastor of the Enon M. E. church, read the scripture lesson. Mrs. Rosa L. Parks sang a solo, which was followed by an address delivered by Oscar W. Adams, editor of the Birmingham Reporter. Obedience Woman's Sole Lot In Japan man is the master and woman, if not the slave, his inferior moiety. There is an old precept much quoted in the land of the mikado, "Woman must obey her father when she is a child; her husband when she is married; her son when she is a widow;" and although the time has gone when the Japanese male declared "woman has no soul" she is a long way from her emancipation. Probably Not. Mrs. Hoyle—"How did your husband get along running the ranch while you were away?" Mrs. Doyle—"Well, I don't think he will advertise for a position as housekeeper on the strength of the record he made."—Judge. Natural Choice. "This is a curious old world. If you have no money you are snubbed—if you have too much you are investigated." "Very true—but I had rather be investigated than snubbed, at that." Good Qualities of Bamboo. A lighthouse of bamboo, which is in use in Japan, is said to have great power of resting the waves, and does not rot like ordinary wood. FIND BETH-SHEMESH An Old City Israel is Brought to Light. Discovery and Excavation of Ancient Town in Palestine by Dr. Mackenzie and F. G. Newton Add to Knowledge of the Past. New York.—Day by day fresh light is being thrown upon the past owing to the various excavations in the lands belonging to the long-ago—so long ago that, for centuries, the tales that had been handed down became mythology; until a Schillemann, with spade and book—his "Homer"—believing in these tales with all his heart and soul, began to dig, and proved tradition—History! When a few fragments of baked clay here are found to correspond in their texture, form and markings with the baked clay there—though seas rolled between them—the tale unfolds; the maker was the same; and by these little bits of pottery the nations and their doings become linked together, until shortly the whole book of the great past will lie open before us. Several leaves have been added to this book during the last two years—leaves, too, with rubricated headings—provided by the discovery and excavation of the city of Beth-shemesh, in Palestine, by Dr. Duncan Mackenzie and Mr. F. G. Newton. Last year the news was: "The Philistines were Cretans!" First, they traded in oils and perfumes with Egypt and the Holy Land; and after the fall of Knossos, they carried on their trade with Egypt from the Holy Land, where they made the same form of pot and ornamented it with the same design as had been their custom in Crete. This year it is the finding of another "high place" similar to the one found at Gezer by Dr. Macalister. It is not known whether this one at Beth-shemesh belongs to the period of the native Canaanite inhabitants or was one of the "high places" which, we are told, the children of Israel erected in all their cities in the days of King Ahaz, when they turned aside and worshiped the gods of the 1 The "High Place" of the Children of Israel. Built at Beth-shemesh and destroyed by Hezokkah. It has lain buried beneath the destroyed city since the Assyrian invasion of B. C. 701. heathens. And so, day by day, leaf by leaf, the book is being compiled. A mound in the Valley of Sorek, known as Ain Shema, which, from its position on the main road between Jerusalem and the sea, would have formed an important point of defense for the Holy City, was thought to cover the Beth-shemesh of old. There was little indication on the surface of what lay buried beneath. Trial shafts were sunk with satisfactory results, the walls of the city traced and laid bare, and the ashes which covered these walls probably since the Assyrian invasion in the year 701 B.C. have now been forced to give up the secrets they hid; but the city had been completely destroyed by fire on a former occasion—it is thought, in the days of King Ahaz, at the time of the Philistine invasion—II. Chron. 28:18. "LOOPS THE LOOP" AGAIN French Aviator Repeats Performance at Juvisy Before Commission of Army Officers. Juvisy, France.—Aviator Pegoud, defied the laws of gravitation by looping the loop, gave another exhibition here of the same feat in his Bleriot monoplane. Before a commission of army officers belonging to the army aviation corps he flew for half a mile with his airplane turned upside down and with his head hanging downwards. M. Bleriot declared the performance was meant to demonstrate that the monoplane will not capsize. Pegoud ascended to a height of over 3,000 feet and then pointed his machine straight to earth, with his engine going at full speed. He dropped to a height of 1,300 feet and then shot upwards with his machine upside down. He maintained this position for a number of seconds and when he righted the plane he landed safely. Anthrax Is Fatal to Man. Wilmington, Del.-Anthrax has claimed another human vietin in this city, James Cannon, an employee in the warehouse of Blumenthal & Co. corocorco manufacturers, died from the disease. Then the company's doctor found Cannon it was learned that he had been ill for five days. The right side of his neck was badly swollen, and death resulted a little later from strangulation. The disease, it is supposed, was extracted while Cannon handled goat skins form Asia. Sea Builds Own Dikes London.—Between Happisburgh and Yarmouth the sea has thrown up a defense against itself. Dunes of blown sand protect vast pasture lands that lie below the sea level, and what would happen if the waves broke through during a violent northeast gale the farmer shudders to think.
