he Fighting Eighth Preparing for War UME VIII. NUMBER 45. 'he Fig Thousands Turned Away from Theater Each Night—Company Forced to Extend Engagement Another Week—Society Will Be Out En Masse Thursday, November 13, to Aid Miss Walker's Efforts to Assist the Old Folks' Home of Chicago. Perhaps the vehicle at the Pekin this week and next which brings the Aida Overton Walker revue is not the elaborate, extravaganza which the public has seen her in during a decade or more as the bright particular star. But Mrs. Walker still remains a luminary of first water in the realms of dramatic art and terpsichore. What a flood of mellow memories her name and appearance passed in review! Garnished is the scene with Bob Cole, James Johnson. Sam Lucas, Ernest Hogan. Marion Smart, W. H. Dudley, George Walker and Bert Williams. Some have passed into the Great Beyond; the last curtain call answered, they have laid themselves down as to quiet dreams. Others still remain and have shaped careers not before the footlights as of yore and before the maddening multitudes shouting bravo in their ears. Just a memory of those former triumphs yet remain in the folds of reminiscences as a perfume doth remain in lavender and old lace. Even the Pekin hath felt the impairment of Father Time and just the shades of the glory that lingered there in halcyon days now remains. So time alters all things, time and tide. But Mrs. Walker, the Fates have made her the Last Word in the realms of our dramatic art. The noblest and last offspring from the founts of mimicry --- Fearless NEST CHAMPION the People 8TH REGIMENT READY FOR WAR Col. John R.

Graham for Style and Fashion—She is a Recognized Leader of Society in That Great City. [By Cable to The Chicago Defender,] Buenos Aires, South America, November 7—Mrs. Geneva Graham of Chicago, Ill., one of the most fashionable women of this city, has created a new style, of dressing the hair that has made her parlor at 605 Esmeralda avenue become the leading shop in this section. She is counted as one of the leaders of fashion, her wardrobe coming direct from Paris. She came here a few years ago from Chicago and has built up a fine trade. PARTING RECEPTION TO REV. R. E. ADAMS. By Members of Union Gospel Choir. The Union Gospel Choir, consisting of members of different churches of the city, which so ably assisted Rev. Adams in evangelistic work in several churches of the city, said farewell to their leader, Rev. Adams at a reception given in his honor at 2444 Washah avenue, Monday evening, Nov. 3. Before leaving for his home, Dr. Adams requested that his choir remain intact in order to more ably assist him upon his return to Chicago, which he says will be soon. In order to keep it intact, it was agreed to form a permanent organization. This was done and officers elected. ```markdown ``` FRATERNAL CLUB ORGANIZES.

McGooden, one of the most popular young men of the city, slipped one over on his many Appomattox friends and the public by marrying quietly Miss Ada E. Curl, Xenia, O. For the past six months "Charles" has kept his friends in suspense, but several weeks ago it all ended by taking upon himself this very charming Ohioan. Mr. McGooden is well known in club and society circles and has been employed in the post office for 11 years. He and his wife are at home at 3756 Indiana avenue. Mr. McGooden says his friend Adams the tailor is next. CHANCELLOR AVERY REFUSES TO BE LESS THAN MAN! "I Was Born a Free Man," Says Prof. Avery, "and I Will Not Permit Any Man to Drag Me Down with His Prejudice—My View of Things Is to Give Every Man a Chance, and as Roosevelt Said 'All Men Up,' I Mean to Help Uphold His Policy"—Sum and Substance of Chancellor's Talk. Guard Ross of the Mighty Football Eleven of the University of Nebraska Has Always Shown Himself a Man Among His Fellows—Manly in His Every Department and a Gentleman in Particular, Which Won for Him Such Great Plaudits—Kansas, Bleeding Kansas, Says, "To Hell with the Constitution," as Does Tillman the Boaster. [Special to The Chicago Defender.] Lincoln, Neb., November 7—The University of Nebraska has set a precedent, based upon manhood, rights and justice, that has been heard around the world. It has given a "black eye" to all the narrow and bigoted universities and colleges which are contaminated with colorphobia. This university as taken the position of Yale and Harvard, that if a man has the qualifications, brain and brawn and can help his school to victory, can kick goal, that man is eligible to play on the football squad, orate in its oratorical and debating contests, no matter the color of his skin. This very definite stand will cause Nebraska University to withdraw from the Missouri conference rather than play schools which insist upon drawing the color line. Ever since the early part of the season Kansas University has been using strenuous efforts to get Nebraska University to ignore their colored player. Negrophobia has been preached, race hatred injected with the view of eliminating the "brother in black." The more of the green-eyed monster of prejudice would bob up, the greater, and stronger would Nebraska stand up for the equal rights and justice of all their players, regardless of color. The chief contention was the guard on the Nebraska team. He stood high in his subjects, a member of all the fraternities, deported himself a thorough gentleman, was of a fine family and the idol among his college mates, both in the class room and on the athletic field. Yet with all these qualifications the Kansas University saw BIG SIX TO BE PROMOTED Pass Examination for Sergeant After 28 Years a Policeman. A competitive examination held by the Civil Service Board of Cook County last week for second grade detective sergeants for the police department netted seven colored men high averages. Seventeen thousand took the examination; 511 were successful. Twelve colored men took the examination and seven of this number passed, and did so with the highest averages. The following patrolmen were successful: Mertel Parker, Woodlawn station; Lilbur Jackson, Stanton avenue; Julius Glenn, Cottage Grove avenue; William A. D. Middleton, Cottage Grove avenue; David Smith, detective bureau; James B. Tucker, Cottage Grove avenue, and Frank Starks, headquarters. Officer Parker, the first on the list, is the nephew of Lieut. Childs. The percentage of each officer speaks well for his ability as a patrolman and the qualifications needed to be a plain clothes officer. The Defender reporter saw each man who passed and they seemed well pleased with promotion. Officer Jackson said, "My next examination will be for that of a desk sergeant." The Defender takes pleasure in congratulating the successful men and hopes each will keep taking until he becomes an honored, faithful and intelligent officer like Lieut. Childs. JUDGE KAVANAGH To Be Honored with Testimonial Banquet. Judge Marcus A. Kavanagh will be honored on Wednesday evening. November 12, with a testimonial banquet at Carter Villa, 3256 Rhodes avenue. Dr. Herbert A. Turner, president of the association, with the executive committee is making elaborate preparations for the occasion. Responses must be made to Dr. J. H. Plummer, secretary executive committee, by Monday, November 10. through their smoked glasses of prejudice a brown skin and refused to play with him. The latter wanted a "gentleman's agreement" to eliminate the colored player from the conference games. When this was suggested it aroused the ire of the whole university and every student arose with one voice and said: "If Ross, our right guard, does, not play, Nebraska will not go upon the gridiron!" This is the spirit that made Grant take Richmond, this is the sentiment that will eventually solve the race problem, for brave white and black standing up for justice and fairness toward all men. Not only did the student body and the football team stand by Ross, but Chancellor Avery, one of the grandest men of America, issued the following statement: "I will request the board of regents at the next meeting to pass a rule that the right of students at the University of Nebraska to participate in any athletic contest, intercollegiate or otherwise, shall not be abridged on account of race or color, and Nebraska will not remain in any athletic association or conference where such right is denied." Nebraska University and its chancellor have arisen higher in the scale of civilization than at any time of its career. It has demonstrated to the world its position on the race question. It has proven that as Harvard had a Lewis and his presence on the football team did not taint its reputation, but on the other hand brought it high honors, so could Ross, the right guard. It has put a premium based upon the highest qualifications and not upon colorphobia. Nebraska has said to all universities that ability and character shall be the test and not race hatred.

JUDGE KAVANAGH AT APPOMATTOX CLUB JUDGE KAVANAGH AT APPOMATTOX CLUB Last Sunday was "Kavanagh Day" at the Appomattox club. The distinguished jurist who has won such a high place in the hearts of colored Americans was the speaker of the day. The club was packed and jammed with Chicago's most representative men and women. He was escorted to the club by a special committee composed of President Frank Hamilton. Col. John R. Marshall, Major Franklin A. Dennison, Adj. Loule B. Anderson and Mr. A. A. Wells. Prof. Will Brown entertained with piano selections until the arrival of the judge and the committee. The program was opened with a delightful musical selection by Mrs. Ophelia Wells. President Hamilton introduced Col. John R. Marshall, who acted as chairman of the meeting. Dr. Charles E. Bentley delivered the welcoming address. Judge Kavanagh was very fittingly and eloquently presented by Col. Marshall a life long friend of the judge. The speaker showed an intimate knowledge of the race question and offered some very valuable and timely suggestions, that would benefit the race if practiced. He made a plea for a stronger organization of men of the race for their industrial, civil and political betterment. He emphasized with force the need of racial unity. Judge Kavanagh told most intelligently and accurately the progress made by the race and urged his hearers to have patience; yet to toll on for their goal is not far distant. At the close of his remarks Attorney Robt. Shaw read a set of resolutions thanking him for his liberal utterances recently delivered on behalf of the race. They were carried unanimously. Following the address, Mme. Marie Peek-Merrill rendered a solo. "Oh Dry Those Tears" was the number. When she finished there was not a dry eye in the audience, tears strolled down the cheeks of men and women as though they were children. Mrs. Merrill sang with such feeling, so sweet and tender, notes too, so clear and enunciation so perfect, that she became an idol of appreciation. The judge immediately rushed to her at the conclusion of the number and urged her sing an encore. She sung the second number equally as sweet as the first. Appomattox club entertained the judge with a dinner after the address. The speech will have a wholesome effect upon his hearers. It was highly appreciated and should be food for thought for each member to make greater efforts towards helping to better things for the race right here in Chicago. MRS. J. T. JENIFER VISITS NEW YORK. Special to Defender. New York, Nov. 1.—Mrs. John T. Jenifer, who was invited to visit the New York Exposition of Fifty Years of Freedom by the management, addressed the Woman's Congress Tuesday night and was given an ovation by a capacity house. Perhaps no woman of color in America is more eligible and capable of speaking on fifty years of progress than Mrs. Jenifer, who has worked for fifty years for race betterment along all lines and at the same time has through business pluck and integrity become one of the wealthiest women in the country through her own endeavors. Endowed with an elegant address and charming personality, Mrs. Jenifer gave to the women of New York a message of hope and helpfulness from twenty thousand women in Illinois who take front rank in the realms of doing and being. The colored women of the west are evidently keeping step with the music of the republic. WHO LOOKED THE BEST? Mr. John Trott, the popular clubman and secretary of Appomattox, was at the Pekin theater Monday night in a box with his friend, Mr. Will McColloch. Both wore evening dress, and looked the part of the late king of England. As they entered the theater, a very stylish dressed lady was heard to observe, who is the best looking? Why Mr. Trott I am sure. See how white his shirt is. Notice how neat his tie is tied. See that swell dress evening suit. Of course Mr. Trott is the best looking. The question is who is right? L. A. BAILEY Mr. L. A. Bailey, 2404 South State street, has two stores, one half a notice store and the other half a pocket billiard parlor. He sells cigars and tobacco. He is one of The Defender's best agents.

SOME THINGS THAT EXIST IN LARGE BUILDINGS In speaking of yome of the things existing in the big buildings in the loop distriet, it was my original In- tention to confine my articles to cor- porations and clubs, or institutions existing In these buildings where col ‘ored people were employed exclusive- ly, but in order to give our readers some Idea of the exlatence of such in- stitutions where apportunities for stewards, chefs and walters are of- fered, 1 am going to make a mention of each case.

In- stead of stopping at $300, his clubs ralsed the handsome sum of $702.25 These clubs were organized into states, reprgsented by governors. These goveriiors with their Heuten- ants began their campaign, which was to result in the election ‘of the one bringing in the largest sum of money, to the presidency of the United States.

He was then asked if he liked street car rides, and he said he did. ‘The stranger told him he would give him a ride some time. Arthur then left the playmates and walked along the street south with the man. At 48th street the two were seen to board a north bound State street car. The police are working on several theories.

The custom of saying "God bless you" to a person when he sneezes originated among the ancients, who, fearing danger from it, after sneezing made a short prayer to the gods, as "Jupiter, help me." The custom is mentioned by Homer, the Jewish rabbis and others. Polydore Vergil said it took its rise at the time of the plague in 558, when the infected fell dead, sneezing, though apparently in good health. MRS. FRANK W.

ATTICE PUBLICATION. MUST. BE THURSDAY "A Man's Island." "As a train went out of Paddington station the other day," we are told "thero were in a third-class compartment two women smoking cigarettes and a man knitting."-London Punch Origin of "Thugs" A real thug was a member of an organized society of fanatical murderers in India, who considered their vicious to be sacrifices to their gods. Their method was by strangulation. The English tried to suppress them about 1810, but did not succeed till about 1830. Who first used the word "gas" and why? Merely because of the supposed resemblance of the product of burning carbon to the "chaos" of the Greeks. "This spirit, hitherto unknown," wrote the experimenter Van Helmolt in 1648. "I call by the new name gas, and I call it so because, being unmanable, it is scarcely distinguishable from the chaos of the ancients." A glimpse at modern gas devices will show how far removed from unattainability is the gas of today. HILL CERAL and EMBALMERS NEVER CLOSED CE GUARANTEED Gas. Tragedy. Tragedy.

One little girl said, "Brother picked up one this morning, but he let right go again." Do You Know This? The middle verse of the Bible is the eighth verse of the 118th psalm. The first-first verse of the seventh chapter of Ezra contains all the letters of the alphabet except the letter "J." The longest verse is the ninth verse of the 118th psalm. The shortest verse is the ninth verse of the eleventh chapter of St. John. In the United States thunderstorms are four or five times as frequent east of the Rocky mountains as west, omitting from consideration parts of Arizona and New Mexico. This is due to the generally mountainous condition of the west. Lightning is the most frequent in Florida and Illinois. Shorthand Used by Roman The art of shorthand was practiced from antiquity. It was improved by the poet Emulus, by Tyro, Cicero's freeman, and Seneca. The "Ars Scribendi Characteris," written about 1412 is the oldest system extant. Dr. Timothy Bright's "Characteric, or the Art of Short, Swift and Secret Writing," published in 1588, is the first English work on shorthand. Strong Party Sentiment "What are the duties of the office to which you desire appointment?" asked the official. "I haven't inquired into the duties," replied the applicant. "But," he added rather reproachfully, "it_was held by a Republican for years. And you oughtn't to have any doubt that what one of those Republicans can get by with a first class Democrat will be able to do with ease."—Washington Star. She Does. "What does this nation need? shouted the impassioned orator "What does this nation -require, if she steps proudly across the Pacific, if she stride boldly across the mighty seas, if she steps across the dom? I repeat, what does she need?" "Rubber boot," suggested the grossly materialistic person in a rear seat. Wagon With Sails. In 1622 one of the wonders to be seen at The Hague was a wagon or a ship or a combination of both. A traveler of that time wrote: "This engine hatch wheels and salis, will hold above twenty people and goes with the wind, being drawn or moved by nothing else, and will run, the wind being good, above fifteen miles an hour upon the even hard sands." British Fish Harvest Sixty-two varieties of fish, including great white flat fish, red shell fish, tiny freshwater crayfish, silvery salmon, dark skinned eels, and yellow dried haddocks were ranged in the aisle of the Church of St. Magnus the bishop of Wellington C. the other Sunday, at the harvest thanksgiving service. Queer Rowing Costumes English rowing men, a century ago wore costumes far different from what they wear now. In 1805 it was the correct thing for them to wear a green leather catkin cap with a jacket and trousers of nankee. In the first university race at Henley in 1829 Oxford won wearing blue checks, while Cambridge was in white with pink waltcoats. Broad brimmed heavy straw hats came in a little later.

Proper Sense of Humon The sense of humor is like individuality; it is likely to be disagreeable to others if made too prominent. It is a dangerous gift, so dangerous that the person who lacks it may perhaps be congratulated. They do not know what they miss, but they are likely to be the solid, sensible citizens, the men of means, and the directors of public affairs. BUSINESS CHANCES BILLIARD PARLOR FOR SALE.

TOO LATE Made all who could desert the street I passed him. It was most unkind Not to respond to "Help the blind." I went a block, then turned around, Retraced my steps o'er that cold ground; I found him, but he could not wait—God called, and I was late—too late. Meanwhile don't let the sun fool you into thinking it is summertime. Note that we are always on the eligible list when there is a war cloud hanging over the country. What the people want to hear from our ministers is less politics and theology and more religion. Judge Kavanagh says to measure the distance you have gone, look back over the road you have traveled, not at the goal in the distance. Some enthusiast sent President Wilson a big sweet potato. Not to be outdone the "brother" from North Carolina sent a big fat opumo to go with it. Can't lose us. Judging by actions, some so-called American citizens could easily be mistaken for barbarous Russians. The Boosters' Club of Nashville are doing things. Jessa Blinga and other prominent citizens are trying to do the same thing for Chicago and should receive the moral and financial support of every good citizen. The Austin, Texas, Express records the death of two old ladies, one colored, aged 116 years, the other frifle, 111 years, and still they say we are a short lived people. If ardent admirers persist in giving their jewelry to Mrs. Pankhurst for the good of the cause, she will have to start a pawn shop to dispose of them. At a recent civil service examination for detective sergeants there were 1,700 applicants. Of this number 1,000 were dredged and nineteen made the passing mark or over. Of this number eight were colored. These figures need no comment. It is but another proof of the results of being given a chance. The cities that are insisting upon segregation, defining the limits of residence, etc., may think they are doing a real smart thing, but they will wake up some morning and find the worm has turned. Even a rat when driven into a tight place will fight. We are designated a "submissive" people. We are not that, but rather a law-binding people; but when the law fails to protect us, what is the first law of nature? The remark credited to Bishop Henry W. Turner that "Most of us will be going South again" to say the least, was very untimely and only calculated to instill more prejudice. As for his remark that we will have "Jim Crow" cars in every city in the union, we can only say it is unfortunate that we have a man with such views because we would expect utterances of this kind from an ignorant Southerner, but from the Bishop never. Because a county clerk in Michigan saw fit to do his duty and issue a marriage license to a colored man to marry a white woman the Times thinks it time the laws were changed there. There are other more important things in relation to marriage that the Times might turn its attention to with profit, for instance the medical examination of the process of marriage, or is discussing it but perhaps the news hasn't reached this particular scribe. Mr. Villard says the statement from Mr. McAdoo requesting him to withhold his speech of protest against the segregation of government employees was without foundation, and requests the error be corrected in the press. We would be had to have our views changed on Secretary McAdoo, and on President Wilson, too, and are willing to take Mr. Villard's word as to their part in the objectionable matter. It seemed like old times this week to sit in the Pelkin theater and see a whole bill composed of acts of our own people. Most of us never realized just what this house meant until after it was gone. It was truly the birthplace of Negro dramatics, and those who were schooled there have made it more of what is more to the point, they have made good. The memory of Robert T. Motts will live long after the building has crumbled away. T. THOMAS FORTUNE T. Thomas Fortune, the dean of Negro journalism, associate editor of the New York Age, the author of numerous books of poems and prose, a scholar and a speaker of note, has been prevailed upon to give a series of lectures in prominent cities in the East and South. We trust that Chicago may be favored with a visit from this distinguished visitor, and the Defender voices the sentiments not only of the press here, but of the citizens in general. That his trip will be one series of triumphs goes without say. "I do not seek or crave sympathy because I am a Negro; I do not seek or crave sympathy because I belongs to an oppressed race; but I thank God I belong to a race that has problems to solve; I thank God now that I can condition conditions that are imperfect." To Washington in a recent address, We are an a race are prone to seek sympathy and to constantly complain of things personal. The man or woman who whishes gets nothing, not even sympathy. The world wants you to laugh, smile in the face of adversity and see how you can succeed, look and talk prosperous even if you are not. Make a bold front fight every inch of the way and success is yours. THE RENAISSANCE OF THE AP POMATTOX. The meeting last Sunday at the Appomattox Club showed the possibilities for good that the organization possesses. We hope the library committee presents each month to the members and their friends some prominent citizens who have about promoting the welfare of our race in the city, and at the same time we can send a message that has to our needs and demands from our own viewpoint. We suggest that the presidents of the various white clubs, such as the Marquette, Union League, University, Standard and the Irish Fellowship, be invited to address us upon any topic they see it sit some Sunday afternoon. They will at least be better able to see the light and spread the gospel amongst their membership and to encourage them to more consideration industrially, socially and politically that has hitherto been accorded. MRS. DANKHURST WITH J. MRS. PANKHURST WITH US. At the Institutional church on Wednesday evening Mrs. Pankhurst spoke to an immense throng of white and black people, and won over every ear to the merits of her cause. The keynote of her speech was not militancy in America, as in England, since here men recognize the rights of women to a great degree, but wherever a great cause found great obstacles against utterance or fulfillment militancy was always necessary. Mrs. Pankhurst dwelt at great length upon cleanliness and personal purity, and re-echoed the great cry which is sounding in all countries in civilization for knowledge and light upon insecurity as diseases as the best safeguard against the evil which is always a power. As colored people we listened with earnest attention to her remarks. We have a battle to be fought here in America and against stupendous odds—a battle of human rights against prejudice, how it can be fought by measures of delay and policy and without militancy we are at a loss to know. Militancy has always been the shibboleth since the begin in any cause which has won. "TO HELL WITH THE CONSTITUTION." The two star disciples of his Satanic majesty have a rather heated argument over the authorship of "To hell with the constitution." Bent Tillman claims that he, and not Cole Porter, was the author of making this statement, which if made in any other country on the civilized globe would put the trader behind the bars of not on the gallows. No doubt if these two microrepresentatives could send the constitution where they suggest, it would be easier when they get there among their friends to change such objectionable parts as the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments. Fortunately there are but comparatively few that are swayed by the ravings of these two figures; anything be immeasured more absurd or more relevant than a discussion on a topic? It is done but for one purpose—to keep in the public gaze, at what cost it matters not. They feel they are going, and are grasping at the last straw. The records they have made in their respective offices are nothing to be proud of. Why the newspapers give publicity to utterances of this sort is shrouded in mystery, save the craves for sensation. If it is not treasonable, the public servant, sworn to uphold the laws, to say "To hell with the constitution," what is treason? FIGHTING FOR A PRINCIPLE. PROVIDENT HOSPITAL, A CREDIT TO THE NEGRO "Although a number of institutions for the betterment of the condition of the Negro have been founded, it is doubtful if any have accomplished much more good than one situated in the Southern District Hospital and Training School, which occupies an excellent and well-equipped building at 36th and Dearborn Sts. "This institution has been in existence since 1831, about twenty-two years. In that time, up to the first of August 1831, the institution has been treated in the hospital. In the dispensary, which was founded in 1856, there have been 2,552 patients treated. The training school for nurses which the institution maintains has graduated 123 young colored women who have done excellent work in the sick—principally of their own race. "As showing the gratifying growth of this institution, it is worthy of note that in 1891, the year of the foundation of the hospital, there were but 18$ patients treated there, while last year there were 949. In the training school there are twenty-three nurses enrolled, which seems to show that young colored women are taking to this work eagerly. This is well, for the records of the graduates show that they are admirably fitted for it. At the present time the institution is $18,000. It is the wish of those who think this fund be increased to $100,000, and it is highly desirable that this wish be gratified, for with this endowment not only would the permanence of the institution be assured but its capacity for good would be vastly increased." Moore editorial is from the Chicago inter Ocean, edited by Mr. H. H. Kohlasat, a true and tried friend of all manking. GREAT LECTURE Tells University Students To Treat the Negro As a Man. Prof. Charles Zeublin of Harvard University finished an eight week's lecture course at Lincoln Center on last Tuesday evening. He came to speak for the extension lecture course under the direction of the Chicago University. He is an authority upon economics and an author of several books. A Defender representative attended every lecture and it is gratified that he was able to attend the eight lectures he touched broadly and liberally upon the race issue and on every occasion impressed his audience that it was right to treat the Negro as a man and urged he no longer be treated as a serf.

RESOLUTION OFFERED: True Reformers Praise Their Chief Be It Resolved, That we, the officers and members of the A. M. E. Ministerial Association, here assembled at the Institutional A. M. E. Church, do heartily indorse the great work that is being accomplished by the Grand Fountain United Order of True Reformers, which was organized by the late Rev. William Washington Browne, and the progress that the race has made through the medium of the said organization. We also approve of the movement that the local representatives of the True Reformers to have the grand lodge meet in this city in their thirty-fifth annual session in September, 1915, during the observance of the half century of Negro freedom, and pledge them our support if successful. DR. B. T. WASHINGTON SPEAKS Honored in His Home State. [Special to The Chicago Defender.] Selma, Ala., November 7—More than 2,000 colored people gathered at the depot here yesterday, Friday, October 24, at welcome Dr. Booker T. Washington, principal of the Tuskegee Institute. Dr. Washington was scheduled to speak in the evening at Selma University and all of the colored schools had been dismissed so that the children could join in the Parachutes and others come from points 10 to 15 miles distant to participate. It was a notable demonstration of loyalty to the leadership of Dr. Washington exhibited by these people. There were many welcoming banners in the crowd, bearing such slogans as "Hail to the Chief" "Welcome to Our Leader," "Cast Down Your Buckets Where You Are" "Make Friends in Every Manly Way with Your White Neighbors" "Get Land," "Educate Yourself," "Do These Words were from the Tuskegee addresses to colored people in various parts of the South. The enthusiasm of the people was warmly infectious and greatly in evidence. At the meeting at Selma University, where Dr. Washington spoke, there were present the mayor, the city clerk, the chief of police, members of the city council, members of the city school board, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, bankers, lawyers, wholesale merchants, ministers, wholesale white citizens of other occupations and professions with their wives and daughters. The carriage in which Dr. Washington was to ride through the city was decorated with hunting and a large United States flag and a lithograph of the Tuskegeean. Twenty-five citizens represent all of the professions and occupations had planned to release the four beautiful horses attached to the carriage and themselves pull the carriage through the streets where she is driving little city. Professor R. B. H. Hunt, a colored school, assisted by Dr. A. F. Selma University and other important citizens of Selma are responsible for this great demonstration in honor of the Tuskegee Wizard.

DAVID WILLIAMS By Dr. Wilberforce Williams. Impotence and Sterility There is a great deal of difference between impotence and sterility, and men are more concerned about impotency than they are about sterility. All unchums are sterile, but it does not necessarily follow that all unchums are impotent; but males and steers are sterile but not necessarily impotent. All unchums are steers, often not contain the "spermatozoa," the life giving element, which would render them unsterile. The causes of impotence and sterility are many. It would be better for society that there were more impotent and sterile men of certain classes, such as illots, criminal insane, confirmed drunkards, epileptics, chronic tuberculosis, drunkened abilities, sexual perversions and all those bitually and confrimedly inacceptable for self-support. Some of the causes are as follows: Sowing of wild oats, injuries of the generative organs (trauma), such as kicks, falling airtide of fences, oftimes horseback riding, mashing or crushing injuries of those organs; various inflammation, gonorrhea is often started point, orchid or sexual indulgences, mumps, tubercular infections of the testicles, stricture of the urethra, occlusion of the tube leading from the testicles (this closure is often due to inflammation following gonorrhea, chronic alcoholism. Of both impotence and sterility Slimpman's estimate is that over 60 percent of women are in a very good thing for society in general, because we believe that chronic alcoholism is a disease the same as any other imbecilizing disease. Selfabuse is a very common cause. Inflammation of the prostrate glande; selfabuse is often the cause of these conditions in both male and female patients, directly or indirectly, of idiopaths, epileptics and imbeciles, also the hopelessly insane. I believe it would be a good thing for all the states to introduce and enforce the Indiana movement and also the Wisconsin and Oklahoma laws in regard to those who should marry. Mr. Father and Mother, it is up to you to watch and instruct; in fact, you and instruct and enlighten your sons and daughters of sex hygiene. There is no use evading the question, as it is like Banquo's ghost, "it will not down," and if you who are the proper persons to instruct them don't do it they are going to get this information somewhere, and may get it from some improper person and perhaps from some bad source. It is better to prevent self-afraid from falling into the habit of selfafraid than to try to eradicate the habit after it is once contracted. Ignorance is no longer a safeguard or cloak to be used as an excuse. The only way to get rid of the evils arising from venereal disease is through education, enlightenment and co-operation. The doctors cannot do it all, but the parents, the ministers and the people in general must lend a helping hand in order to free the people from this awful plague that is killing so many of the flowers of the garden. The very intelligent and wide awake person who has taken pains to give any attention to this matter realizes that venereal diseases are largely and rapidly on the increase and that society must put up a bold, united front against this deadly energy. QUESTIONS. This May Be Consumption. Mrs. Writes: "I have had a hemorrhage at about six months ago and I have had every afternoon from 100 to 101. I have no cough and have gained six pounds since last May. I eat well and sleep well. Do you think that I have consumption? Why do I have a hemorrhage and did you advise? REPLY: (a) You have two of the most certain symptoms of consumption: hemorrhage from the lungs and afternoon temperature, although you have no cough now. The reason you have the fever in the hemorrhage is because of the tubercular process going on in your lungs. (b) I would advise that you call upon your physician for a careful chest and 'sputum examination. If you have not got a physician or if you are unable to pay a doctor for a physical examination, come to the Medical Department at Provident Hospital, 36th and Dearborn streets, on any Monday or Thursday between the hours of 2 and 5 p. m., where you can be carefully examined. Your cure of this disease will depend very largely upon your early diagnosis and intelligent treatment. (c) Avoid the breathing of bed air, especially when you are sleeping room, church, lodge hall and public assembly rooms. Throw open your bedroom windows but use plenty of covering. Eat good, nourishing food and get weighed every week. As soon as your temperature is gone you might have your physician use tuberculin. (d) Absolute rest in bed until your temperature is below 99.6. The best and easiest way to reduce and control fever in consumption is rest, rest in bed. HEALTH DEPARTMENT. During the month of September of this year the Department of Health, through its Food Bureau, condemned a total of 31,455 pounds of meat, fish and game; of this amount 17,208 pounds were condemned at the Yards and 227 at the markets and depots throughout the city. Impoundments were made of 1,510 milk deposits, 1,378 of which showed a sanitary score of 70 or better; of the cases heard in court, in 26 fines were imposed, totaling $58,75 for violations of the food ordinance. In the work of the Bureau of Medical Inspection, September, the first month of the school year, the following items are of interest: Health officers made 6,400 visits to public schools and 2,509 to parochial; a total of 8,000 for the month, with 259,677 of the pupils attended of the pupils examined, 7,912 were found affected with either some of the minor ailments or with a communicable disease; and of these 817 were excluded from school for proper care and treatment at their home. In addition and as a part of the school instruction, the department nurses made 6,765 visits to pupils gave instruction to 107,834 pupils on matters affecting their personal health and comfort. September was also a busy month for the Bureau of Sanitation, as shown by a total of 7,316 inspections made, covering all kinds of complaints and including those on new work; inspections made 2,820, making a total of 16,596 for the month. These inspections covered bakeries, restaurants, workshops, plumbing, old and house and house to house investigations. In 1965 notices were served and for the month 2,222 abatements were secured. At the beginning of the month 338 suits were pending, 192 new suits were filed, 70 cases were tried and disposed of and fines imposed amounting to $556.75 for violations of the sanitary code. Here are a few facts of interest concerning that much dreaded disease, bubonic plague. According to Dr. Osler bubonic plague has been the sixth century's present name since the fourth century but back as the fourteenth century it overcame one-fourth of the total population. In 1665 the plague broke out in London and killed not less than 70,000 people. During the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries its ravages gradually lessened. Its revival within the past two decades has arisen universal interest. Since its appearance in Hong Kong in 1894 has broken out in many parts of the world. In 1963 it was estimated that 1,000 people died from it, and for the future India will need 1,374, and the death in Europe due to this awful scourge to human life. Bubonic plague, says Dr. Osler, sets all canons of sanitary science at defiance. It will ravage healthy districts and leave notoriously unhealthy ones alone; it will injure the midst of sandy waves. It will kill thousands and take heavy toll of other towns. It is the most serious sanitary problem in the world today. After an absence of more than 200 years it obtained a foothold in Great Britain and a few cases have been carried to South American ports. From these few facts as to this disease, it is easy to understand why its appearance in a quarter of the globe is cause for concern. It now understood, the plague is spread through ruts, mice, fleas and squirrels. In all ports of entry where the disease is liable to be imported a fight of extermination against vermin of this kind is carried on all the time.

THE BUFFET FLATS Some of the Most Beautiful Flats with Modern Conveniences Given Over to the Ruination of Young Girls, While Their Mothers Attend the Bright Lights of The Stroll and the Gilded Halls of the Cabaret. THE FANCY FLATS Will the Respectable Family Living Next Door Permit the Insult to Their Family to Continue?—Protect Your Home at Any Cost—In the South This Sort of Thing is Tolerated between Certipl Class of People. We Know, But Here In Chicago It Must Not Be Tolerated. By Little Bo Peep. One evening this week the writer was taken to the fourth floor of a flat building on State street. This flat was kept by a woman known as "Mrs," but not married. Ordered round of drinks. Several women in flat "visiting." Four bottles kelpweels and a bottle of wine. Half hour later we made our departure. Was informed "not to forget the place" and "when you come again bring some more friends, to left and went on second floor. This lady had a piano. Hilarity at its height, two women full doing a dance they called "bailing the Jack" and other disrespectful captions. Bought a round of flowers. We journeyed further south on State street and found on second floor of another building, electric lights, high class; was early in the evening and the crowd had not come yet, but well known frequenters of levee district were expected. We left and went over on Webash and a lady only invited us to wait, that she expected several young "high vallers" in shortly. We intend to drive the buffet fats out of town just as a big daily did the fake doctors. They are not only a detriment to the grown-ups of the race but are a thorn in the side of a woman. We want to learn from the young man and wrench gold from his meager salary by tempting his lust for passion. They are both ruining and misguiding to the girl in her teens for the women keepers are able off their ill-gotten earnings to dress up and curtains and broadcloth, fancy laces and curtains and many a young girl has been thrust by the wayside in her desire for fine clothes. Men also set a misleading example to the hot blooded youths, for they, too, go dressed up and have their manhood to the dogs. They are p. 18 (prostitute lovers). The city has changed its police and it is our earnest hope that the new chief will clean house. The big flat buildings are usually a haven for these people; they can with their lilight change rent flats of the finest Where are the landlords who rent the flat? Where are the church people? If you can't reform them, drive them out. There are more than 400 living in this city that can't show a marriage license. Can you afford to raise your son or daughter under the very door of such? Can you? Or will you assist in driving these people out to town? Mothers carelessly allow their daughters to go visiting and don't seem to care where they go; but if they would scout around a little they would hide their faces in shame. Saturday and Sunday are busy days with the owners of such flats. Young women are enticed to come and meet a "live" one. They are able to go as far as they like. Girls go shopping the prey for the want of money. Do that life it is hard for them to change. Death is their only consolation. We have been on this trail for weeks and the result is we intend to stop it. The city government should put a stop to it, for these people are selling liquors without a license, and keeping disorderly houses. FREEDMEN'S HOSPITAL Dr. Warfield Doing Good Work. [Special to The Chicago Defender] Washington, D. C. November 7— Although Freedmen's Hospital is one of the largest, finest and best-managed institutions of its kind in the country, it has many pressing needs, recording to the current report made by Surgeon-in-Chief W.

If so, please intro duce me through mail to some of your fair, intelligent working girls. I need someone toshelp me save my $20 per week. [have met a good many young ladies out here that will help me spend it, but that is not the idea. Answer at your most convenient time to LUTHER McKINNEY.

As promised, the Grand had an all-star bill, and in consequence played to crowded houses at each performance. After an exceptionally good movie the bill opened with Ben Beyer and company, labeled "Sprinting Messengers." Clever bicyclists have been seen here before, but nothing to compare with these two daredevils on wheels. It is needless to introduce Marie Burton to a Chicago audience, as she is our bright particular star. Her rendition of "Rose in the Bud" was exquisite, and her clear, sweet melodious voice sank deep into the hearts of her audience and carried them far away into the land of sunshine and flowers. "Love is a Wonderful Thing" and "Georgia Brown" were as generously received. The U, S. Cadets gave us something decidedly novel in the way of a military act. Not only was it novel, but wonderfully entertaining, going through the different army maneuvers with the precision of clockwork, these twelve men elicited round after round of applause. The Rathskeller Trio, vocalists and instrumentalists, have been seen here before and reviewed favorably. Edgar Connor and his Sambo Girls cleaned up. They, too, have been reviewed in these columns, and the public knows what to expect when they are on the bill. The Ten Dark Knights took the honors the last half of the week, and the management is to be congratulated on giving to the public at a nominal price such an excellent bill. Aidla Overton Walker & Co. Aida Overton Walker & Co. Such a welcome as was accorded Aida Overton Walker and her excellent company the past week at the Pekin theater should make this famous star feel that here in Chicago her art is appreciated and that she holds a warm spot in the hearts of the people. It is refreshing to have such a galaxy of our own talent appear at at house owned by one of our number. The entertainment presented under her direction was diversified enough to please the most fastidious. Here were arrayed the cream of vaudevilians, presenting the latest and best in their line, headed by the divine Aida, whose reputation is world-wide. In fact she is credited with being the finest dancer now upon the American stage—a reputation that she justly deserves. There is but one thing that is a bit disappointing; and that is, she doesn't appear often enough on the bill. Perhaps we are selfish, but good things come so seldom there is a tendency to keep them when we can. (Musical Director, Mr. Will H. Vodery). Evenings, 815, Matthews, 2145.

The Bryant Concert The concert given by Mr. Theo P. Bryant, bartone, at Watters' A. M. E. Zion Church last Monday evening was a very brilliant affair. The audience was composed of some of the best people of the city, and they were very generous in their applause at the rendition of each number. Mr. Bryant possesses a very good voice, rich and sympathetic, and sings with much ease and expression. He sang such selections is "Nita Gitana," by De Koeh; "Perfect Day," by Jacobs-Bond; "If I had the World to Give," by Cook. Mr. Bryant was ably supported by Mrs. Willie M. Sloan, soprano, one of Chicago's sweetest songbirds; Mme. Fannie Hall Clint, who needs no introduction to Chicago audiences; Miss Lillie Haut, pianist, and Mr. T. Theo Taylor, accompanist.

"I often wonder why our young boys and girls do not retrace their footsteps and read ancient and modern history that is being played now by men in this day, portraying things that did occur thousands of years ago. "I think that the younger people of my race would benefit themselves greatly by studying these histories," said J. H. Hightower, the Old Sergeant, to the dramatic critic. Mr. Martin Klein, the head of the colored vandeville association, it is reported, will book the Aida Overton Walker company at the Booker T. Washington theater, St. Louis, Mo. Mr. Kemper Harreld of this city gave a recital last night at Atlanta, Ga. It was the third annual violin recital of the Moorehouse college. Among the numbers rendered were "True Is All lagoo Tells Us." Coleridge Taylor; "Fautasia," "Concerto in E Minor" and "Gypsy Airs." He was assisted by Mr. Matthew Bullock. Mrs. G. W. Oden of 3717 La Salle street was at one of the State street theaters the first of the week, and in company with her cousin, a visitor from the South, was insulted and bullied by some very unlady-like women. Her cousin looked like white, and this caused the disturbers, it is claimed, to make some very uncalled-for remarks. The white usher was called to quiet the remarks of the unlady women, but as soon as he saw they were colored he marched away. It should have been the duty of the usher to come immediately to the rescue of the one imposed upon and, no matter what was the color of the patrons, he should have caused these women to quiet their remarks. If managers want the patronage of the best people they must keep good order. The theater has too good a reputation for us to call the name at present. ANITA PATTI BROWN'S COMPANY The Sing-Tell-Play Company was received with great appreciation on its journey eastward, all agreeing this company was the best and only one of its kind to visit their city, and begging a return date on their return from South America. In answer to these requests Mme. Brown always said, "Please see my husband, who is here and is my manager." Cleveland on Monday evening, the 3d inst., gave an audience to nearly equal the one recently at Bethel. Mme. Brown canceled two or more dates and left Cleveland Tuesday morning for Washington, D. C., to give the members of the company a chance to see that beautiful city and hear the Clerf Club at Howard theater, which might serve as an inspiration to the young artists with her before they sail on Saturday, November 8, from New York. Mme. Brown with reluctance discharged her managing husband, bought him a ticket and sent him home Tuesday from Cleveland. He, too, was sorry. MISS GANAWAY LEAVES CITY Miss M. Canaway of Lafayette, Ind., who spent five weeks in the city on business, left Sunday evening for her home. The fascinating "young one" made many new friends white here and it is said came near falling in a "Trapp," but the genial doctor was so busy he was unable to attend social functions those weeks. Good Advice. "I would like to get something for fleas," said the Sweet Young Thing. "Well, you might try a dog." ventured the grouchy drug store clerk. Greeks Played Dominos The game of dominos has been variously traced to Greek, Hebrew and Chinese origin. Early in the eighteenth century it was introduced into France from Italy, and the Cafe de l'Opera was long the headquarters for expert players. From France it spread to England, Germany and America. Fireproofing Children's Clothes. When fires are started, if there is any danger of children getting so near as to ignite cotton dresses or aprons, add alum to the water in which the clothes are rinsed. This renders the fabric fireproof. Ingenious Plea. Brebeca—"I don't believe you lofe me. You never think of anything but tollars."

C., and several weeks' stay in Detroit, Michigan, as the guest of Bishop and Mrs. Smith, Mrs. Daniel H. Williams returned home Wednesday evening, and on entering her home the house was instantly illuminated and thirty ladies greeted her with the beautiful strains of Home Sweet Home. She was so surprised and overcome, that it was several moments before she could speak. Mrs. Harry Duncan made a welcome address that will long be remembered and paid Mrs. Williams a tribute of true friendship and possessing the finer qualities that make a perfect woman and a home maker. Mrs. Williams responded in her charming manner and will ever cherish her visit and her home coming as one of the bright pages in her book of life. After a pleasant evening's visit dainty refreshments were served and the ladies departed for their homes. The house was a picture in its decorations of cut flowers and autumn leaves. Those present were: Mesdames J. H. Mingo, A. L. Smith, Thos. Carroll, S. Paul, J. W. E. Thomas, L. Warren, L. B. Anderson, K. Eastern, Edw. Wilson, Geo. Jackson, N. Croker, L. Settles, Wm.

A wedding took place the other day at St. George's church, Gravesend, England, when Mr. Herbert Thorndike was married to Miss Stiles. Both bride and bridegroom are deaf and dumb, and Canon Gedge, who is totally blind, performed the ceremony. Give Credit Now. We ought daily or weekly to dedicate a little time to the reckoning up of the virtues of our belonging—wife, children, friends—contemplating them then in a beautiful collection. And we should do so now, that we may not pardon and love in vain and too late, after the beloved one has been taken away from us to a better world—Jean Paul Richter. No Lover of the Bath Swinburne evidently found baths a source of inspiration, for he told Edmund Gosse that "Baudelaire" was written in a Turkish bath. Doctor Johnson, on the other hand, regarded them with suspicion. When an old Lichfield friend, showing him over a house built specially for him, dilated on the advantage of the bathroom, the doctor said: "Sir, are you well?" "Quite well, thank you, doctor," was the reply. "Then, sir let well alone. I hate immersion." Evidently a Genius. He put every cent he had into an "Uncle Tom's Cabin" show, and at the end of four weeks his treasurer, with $400 to the good, skipped out during the night. So he said to himself: "I'll catch the cus," and set the blood, hounds they had in the show on his trail. "Catch him?" he said, in speaking of it later. "Sure they did. They caught up with him, and he put chains around their necks, and started another show." Bell's Telephone Haunted Him. Dr. Bell had a strong aversion to the ringing of the telephone bell—the great invention for which he is responsible. I occasionally went into his room and found the bell stuffed with paper, or wound around with towels. "Little did I think when I invented the thing," said Dr. Bell one day, when he had been awakened by the jingling of the bell, "that it would rise up to mock and annoy me."—From Aviation Book," by Glenn Curtiss. Couldn't Place Them. Little Jessie, aged four, who was quite familiar with a pack of cards, was taken to church for the first time. She was very much interested in the stained glass windows, which portrayed the different saints of the bible. Much to the amusement of those seated by, and very much to the chagrin of her mother, Jessie said, in a stage whisper: "Tell me, mother, is they-kings or jacks?" Why "Bucket Shop." The phrase "bucket shop" originated in Chicago. The board of trade had forbidden dealings in grain options in less amounts than 5,000 bushels. An open board was established for small gamblers under the rooms of the regular board. When business was slack in the regular board the elevator would be sent down for another "bucketful" of speculators from the unauthorized exchange, which thus came to be known as the "bucketshop."

"Hope," according to Bert Miller, "looks for a dime in the vest pockets of last winter's suit. Fact recovers two toothpicks, a match and a piece of lead pencil."

And still some do not appreciate the value of education in agriculture.—Topeka Journal. Dark Town. Of 10,000 townships in France having more than 1,000 inhabitants, about 6,000 are without any public lighting.

Luminous Fire Boxes To enable New Yorkers to find fire alarm boxes at night, the superintendent of the fire alarm department is painting them with luminous paint. It is of white zinc, and in some parts of the city, where there is a little light, one of these boxes can be distinguished for a long distance. Books In Oilcloth. When packing books line the boxes with table oilcloth. You will preserve the volumes in this way from damage during long journeys or from mold and mildew if left in a damp storage house.—Good Housekeeping. Convict's Pet Mouse. On completion of a three years' sentence, a convict has left Peterhead penitentiary, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, accompanied by the companion of his imprisonment, a brown mouse. He caught it while working in the quarries shortly after his arrival at Peterhead. The mouse shared its captor's meals, and in 12 months had learned a variety of tricks, such as eating out of the convict's hand and sitting up at the word of command. Knowledge. Knowledge is like the coin of exchange. A man is justified, to a degree, in taking pride in its possession, if he himself worked over the gold of it and tried to coin it, or, at least, if he came by it honestly, already tested out. But when he did not do anything of the kind, but got it from some passer-by who threw it in his face, then what ground has he to boast of it?—John Ruskin. Easiest Way. An eminent German professor had the misfortune to die while he was away on his holidays.

Why the Name "Flag." Why the name "Flag." The name "flag" is given to the iris because of its flat fourteen leaves, which sway with the wind. Shakespeare's use of the word applies to any long-leaved water plant that is swayed to and fro by the stream.

Archel Motley was, absent on the line-up and his place at full ck was taken by Portlock who was at over for both touchdowns. Twice the Hoosters planted the ball within three yards of the goal line but there the maroon and white braced and held for downs. Portlock painted out of danger zone in the first quarter and Bunn executed a beautiful forward pass to Dade from behind his own goal line in the last. It was a desperate chance but it brought hundreds to their feet cheering. An intercepted forward pass in the second quarter landed the ball in Lincoln yard line. Portlock and Langston hit the line for gains when within ten yards of scoring the Tigers hold for three downs when with the teams lined for a left shift play Portlock with a beautiful interference circled the right end for a touchdown. The second score came in the last quarter with the ball on their own ten-yard line a beautiful forward pass Dunn to Portlock, netted thirty yards and the frisky full shook off all the opposing tacklers and ran the remaining distance for a touchdown. He failed to kick goal. The final score was 12-0. The gymnasium classes at the Y. M. C. A. have been divided into four teams, the Hawks, the Sparrows, the Eagles and the Crows. The competition is causing much enthusiasm. Dr. Geo. Hall lectured on young manhood and proper training. Dr. Hall seems to be popular with "gym" men for he was well applauded on entering and also after he had delivered his speech. Mr. Simons fell Tuesday and hurt his leg running on the track. His leg is improving and he was back on the floor. Tuskegee Team In Two Victories. Tuskegee, Ala., Nov. 7.—Tuskegee Institute's gridiron warriors in the first contest of the year, October 15th registered thirty-eight points against the Clark University, of Atlanta, and on the following Saturday, October 25th, overwhelmed the football squad from Morris Brown University with a forty-five '0 nothing score. Neither time was Tuskegee scored against, but scored against their opponents almost at will. Tuskegee has not in recent years started her gridiron activities under happier auspices, and from every angle Tuskegee's chances for again winning the southern championship seem very promising. The first real test of the team, however, will be on Wednesday, November 5th when the team will meet the strong Talladega College, in Birmingham. On November 15th, one of the hardest fought games of the season will be played on the Institute field when Coach Thomas' doughy warriors clash with the formidable Atlanta Baptist (Morehouse) College eleven. On Thanksgiving Day, the team will go to Nashville to meet the Fisk University team for the final game of the season. PEKIN HEATRE REVIVED. (Continued from page 1.) and fancy and so also the brightest and best. How her art endures and passes the acid test of changing moods and fickle calls! How still and quite alone she passes in revue and commands our admiration and highest praise. In just a short interview with her one evening after the play we noticed the secret of her success—humility. When an artist triumphant feels as she does with all her honors that she is still but a child in her art, that nothing is finished but just begun in the magic sphere of making smiles and tears, she is still safe to us for the future and the drama forsox must make her—The Last Word. Remaining now as she does in dramatic fields almost quite alone we must reserve the choiceest mead of commendation for the little woman who reigns still and forever in our hearts, and we are loath to bless any name not solely hers, and upon her brow we put our highest, brightest crown of praise. The music was under the personal direction of Mr. Will H. Vodery, an author of ability, who has directed several big companies over the country as well as written for big Broadway productions in New York. Mr. Jerry Mills, known when the Pekin was famous and who carries this reputation now, was the director, and Mr. Joe Jordan was the first violinist. Harry C. Jenkins was the stage manager. Two of the members of the chorus that attracted attention were Misses Hazel Thompson of Chicago and Marion Potter of New York City. Miss Potter was with the Dudley show and has had several years' experience. Box parties every night. Society We desire to call attention to our new sanitary up-to-date dental office.

Mr. Henry Jones, known to everybody in Chicago as "Tenan," deserves great credit for the success of the show. Mr. Jones worked night and day to make the week of Miss Walker a success. So untiring were his efforts that the theater turned people away nightly, and the demand was so great that another week will see Miss Walker here. The Defender reporter asked Mr. Jones what Miss Walker thought of the attendance of the Chicago people at the theater. "Miss Walker is so pleased," said Mr. Jones, "that on next Thursday afternoon she will give a matinee for the special benefit of the Old Folks' Home." WAYMAN'S CHAPEL A. M. E. CHURCH. 1232 Villa Street—Rev. Merritt, Pastor. [Special to The Chicago Defender.] Racine, Wis., November 7—Church services were well attended Sunday. Rev. Merritt preached an able sermon Sunday evening to a full house. Sunday school is another interesting feature of this church. We noticed three old soldiers in the Bible class. Mr. Walter Mathews, who was assistant superintendent of the Sunday school, resigned and will make his future home in Chicago. We regret to see him go and wish him much success. Mr. Weaves visited friends in Madison, Wis. Sunday. Mrs. Cobb and baby have been on the sick list the past week but are better at this writing. Mr. Knuckle of 1721 Racine street plans to spend Thanksgiving day in Louisville, Ky. Mrs. A. H. Landers will depart for St. Louis, Mo., next week, where she will remain until after Thanksgiving, visiting her father and brother. Mr. and Mrs. White of 1221 Center street entertained Mr. Knuck and Mr. Landes at their home Sunday evening. We understand a company of colored men are planning to build a new factory in Racine. Will tell you more about it next week. DEATH OF WELL KNOWN YOUNG MAN [Special to The Chicago Defender] Saskatoon Sask., November 7— Mr. Addison Smith, step-son of Mr. James H. Lewis, 115 21st street, West Saskatoon, Sask., Can., departed this life Sunday afternoon, November 2. He was a young man of sterling qual- ties and leaves a host of relatives both in Canada and Chicago to mourn his death. MR. E. FRANKLIN MORROW Clerk for the Abby Fur Company. Mr. E.

E. rally, which takes place about the 16th of this month, is expected to be a very successful affair, judging from the activity of the ladies and the members and friends of the church in general. Rev. L. J. Phillips, the pastor, is working hard to make this one of the most successful rallies that he has had in this city. The Hallowe'en party tendered the children, their parents and the friends on last Friday evening at the 12th street school was a big success, the children having a delightful time. The room; however, was too crowded to have games and the program. The prizes for the most comical and the most beautiful costumes, respectively, were won by Carl Williams and Ethel Gates. Mrs. William Owsley and children, William and Maxine, of East 12th avenue, expect to spend a few weeks in Galesburg, Ill., visiting their former home, Mrs. Owsley's mother and other relatives. Mr. Charles Harris is quite ill with asthma. Entertainments will be given at the First A. M. E. and First Baptist churches on the evening of November 10. The Men's Institutional League meets tomorrow afternoon at 3:30 p. m. at the First A. M. E. Church. . Like New Store Fronts Making over store fronts is an industry which has found so many patrons in New York that a number of firms have found it profitable to set aside all other forms of building and devote themselves wholly to helping New York merchants improve the appearance of their establishments by putting a new face on the matter. All classes of merchants, from the small dealer in the suburb to the great dry goods firms, indulge in the luxury of a new kind of front to their business homes every once in so often. Couldn't Fool Him. The farmer had bought a pair of shoes in the city shop. "Now, can't I sell you a pair of shoe trees!" suggested the clerk. "Don't git fresh with me, sonny!" replied the farmer, bristling up; "I don't believe shoes kin be raised on trees any mor'n I believe rubbers grow on rubber trees or oysters on oyster plants, b'gosh!" Slimness of Mr. Stephens Speaking of Alexander H. Stephens' thinness, perhaps it was never better characterized than by the man in Washington who said that when he was standing on the steps of the capitol an empty hack drove up and Alexander H. Stephens got out. HE FINDS A WAY. The ways of the transgressor never becomes so hard that he can't make it.-Waldo Baston. GOLDEN MILE OF KALGOORLIE Stretch of Territory Has Features That Are Probably Unique in World's History. Kalgoorlie and Boulder, considerable cities which adjoin near where Pat Hannan scratched out his nuggets in the early days, are noisy with life and ambition; and as long as the Golden Mile flourishes to sustain them they will continue to thrive and aspire in spite of the immensity and horrible character of the desert land which isolates them from rivers and fertile places and the bounty of a kindly soil. They run with the times; they provide themselves with comforts; they amuse themselves; they are adorned; they regard their duty to the state and consider the future of their children's children. The Golden Mile lies within in sight of Hannah's old clum—the smoke and dust and black superstructures of a thin line of deep and vastly rich mines. One of the group—not the pride of them all—must produce £600 a day to keep the stockholders in good humor with its behavior; and the affection of the directors would be largely increased—it was estimated—if a responsive good conduct should increase even a gratifying yield to £1,000 a day. Roughly speaking, the Golden Mile and its lesser neighbors of Kalgoorlie—the big shows, as distinguished from the individual enterprises scattered broadcast over the country, which are called little shows—employ 5,000 men and produce £3,000,000 a year; and the whole field in which the Golden Mile is situated has from the first days of the Kalgoorlie rush, 20 years ago, produced almost £50,000,000, which, stated more impressively in dollars, amounts to £280,000,000. It was pointed out by a furious young member of the labor party of West Australia that the wealth taken from these few miles of wilderness which once were public domain equaled nearly £600 per capita of the maximum population of the district. And consequently— "Who gets it all?" demanded my informant. I could not enlighten him. "Stockholders in London," he snapped, "who never saw the gold-fields!" —Norman Duncan, in Harper's Magazine. Almost Victim of Tiger A thrilling experience with a tiger occurred to a man named Campbell, son of the superintendent of police of Hazariabagh, India, a few days ago. Campbell was cycling from Hazariabagh to Hazariabagh Station, a distance of forty-two miles, when at the twentyth mile, he noticed a road roller on the side of the road, and as he approached this object a huge tiger which had been sleeping suddenly spring up and barred further progress. Campbell, who has only one arm, did not have any other weapon than an ordinary small pistol. Being an experienced hunter, seeing the man-eater about to spring, he dismounted his cycle and placing the machine in front of him, scared the tiger away. The animal made its way into the jungle, which is very thick at that part of the read, and young Campbell, mounting his bicycle made off. There has been a large increase in man-eaters in the Hazariabagh district of late, owing to the decrease in the rewards for their capture. Harps of Old Stim Sound. Surly a poet should be found somewhere, to sing with fitting sentiment the story of how archaeologists in Egypt lately have come upon ancient harps, three thousand years old, the strings of which are still intact and give forth musical sounds after thirty centuries of silence. The poet above-mentioned should devote several lines to saying, poetically, that though we of today have seen sights the ancient peoples saw, though we have read their books, viewed their enbalmed remains, thought their thoughts and retread their pathways, never before have our modern ears listened to their musical sounds. Ancient music is almost a sealed mystery to us, even though a few written phrases have remained to be imitated on our instruments. But would it not give us a strange sense of nearness to them, of one-ness with them, to hear with our ears the same note that once calmed the rage of a Ramesses! Had Her Eye on Him. A well known writer was present recently at a dress rehearsal of a comedy played by amateurs at a London theater. The rehearsal went well, but the hero, whom we will call B—seemed rather hard and cold. The novelist sat in the stalls next to a charming lady of middle age. She said, at the end of the third act: "It goes beautifully, doesn't it?" "Beautifully," said the gentleman. "But—it doesn't make love to that pretty girl in as ardent a manner as I could wish. His love-making, in fact, strikes me as very tame and spiritless." The lady frowned. "He won't put any more spirit in it while I've got my eye on him, let me tell you," she said. "I'm Mrs. B—" Family Pride in Germany. The suicide of Princess Sofia of Saxe-Weimar represents a tragedy which is very old both in life and literature. The opposition to her engagement with the sop of a banker seems to have been the subject of gossip in Germany for some time, and it is to this cause that her act of self-destruction is generally ascribed. Distinctions of rank play a part in German consciousness which we can scarcely realize in this country, and they have a basis in history and national character which is not to be disposed of by a contemptuous astonishment. None the less, "family pride" seems to cut a poor figure by the bier of a young girl self-destroyed. Tragic Cook. Guest (who has been invited to supper by an actress)—Our hostess prepared this little feast with her own hands, she tells me. What do you say to that? The Other Guest (shrugging his shoulders)—That she is a tragedienne in the art of cookery, also. All the girls, when speaking of Aller Dukes, invariably said: "Well, isn't he the limit? They, did not employ the term in its usual sense, for their admiration of young Dukes was boundless. What they had in mind was his infinite capacity for keeping still. He never talked unless he had something to say, and when he had said it ceased talking. There was sound philosophy in his method, but the average man has not the strength of mind to follow it out—he keeps up a conversational twitter because he has a horror of silence. It gets on his nerves. Aller Dukes did not seem to possess any nerves. At any rate, he did not flutter an eyelash at whole streaks of stillness. The odd part of it was that this habit did not seem to shut him off behind any remote barrier—he had the faculty of making himself more intimately one of the party by just listening than did the others by reams of gabble. He never by any chance gossiped about himself. Most people are so egotistical that they think the public is feverishly interested in their trips to Europe, projected or past, their new clothes at the tailor's or dressmaker's, their servants' shortcomings and the money they are making. Aller Dukes seemed wrapped in impenetrable modesty. Any information you got out of him relating to himself had to be pried and blasted loose and he clearly regarded the operation with disfavor. Naturally he was fascinating to girls, because he gave them so much to talk and wonder about. When he took one of them to a party she had all the sensations of starting on a trip into remotest Africa, because there always was the possibility of making Aller Dukes talk. Nobody has done it yet, but while there is life there is hope. The effect of Aller's silence was to make other people talk, and resolve as they would not to chatter and unfold their best secrets to him, they always did. When he began taking Ethel Awling around more than all the other girls excitement ran high. "Suppose." said Ethel's best friend. "Suppose he should want to propose to you—he'd never be able to waste words enough to lead up to it! what's he going to do? A girl simply has to be sort of courted." "I'm not worrying," said Ethel, and tossed her head. "He's just a good friend and doesn't care a bit about me." But it was observed that she blushed when she said it. Perhaps Ethel herself wondered as had her best friend. She and Aller got along famously together because she could talk six miles an hour and she always took such a vivid interest in life that she had plenty to say. Not that Aller maintained a sphinxlike silence—when she considered the matter it seemed that he always said things to the point. Still, as her best friend had pointed out, a girl simply has to be courted. And the young man had wasted no time in pretty speeches. Before she realized it, Ethel Awling was consumed with curiosity as to whether Aller Dukes really liked her a good deal and how he possibly could convey the idea to her if he did like her. - Deep down in her heart she was hoping that he did. Several others had told Ethel that they cared for her, and as she reviewed the manner in which they had done so none of the methods employed appealed to her as at all attractive. To be sure, they had been graceful enough, clever enough, artistic enough, and yet she had sent the young men all away. How, she painfully wondered, could silent Aller Dukes tell her of his admiration, supposing he should want to, so that it would impress her? She disliked very much the idea of not being impressed sufficiently to say yes. By which one may judge that Ethel was considerably in love with the silent chap. To her self she insisted that she did not care a bit. Most unexpectedly one evening, just as they were going down the steps on their way to a party, not when they were returning, with moonlight and the rest of the conventional setting, Aller Dukes turned his head toward Ethel a moment and then said: "Will you marry me, Ethel?" It took him exactly from the third to the fifth step to say it. And Ethel, after an instant, heard herself saying calmly from the sixth step to the seventh: "Yes, Aller." And then they were walking on the level sidewalk. Some time later Ethel said reproachfully: "That was an awfully funny way you proposed to me!" Aller looked surprised. "I don't see why," he said. "I wanted to know something and what was there to do but ask you what I wanted to know?" "Anyhow, I'm satisfied!" Ethel told him. Satisfied With Advertising Advertising pays, or at least, brings results. If you don't think so, ask Henry Bailey of Green River, Wyoming. Here is an account of Henry's recent visit to Denver, Colo. Within two hours after a newspaper in which he had placed a want informing the public that he was looking for a wife, had appeared upon the streets, Bailey had received an answer. Two hours later his marriage proposal had been accepted by Miss Pearl Mount of Sedalia, Mo., and twelve hours after he had inserted the advertisement he and Miss Mount were married. "I felt sort of lonely up there in Green River," said Bailey, who is a prominent business man of that place, "and I thought I would come down to Denver for a few days. The other morning I thought I would seek the aid of a newspaper and see if in that way I couldn't get a good woman who would be willing to become my wife."—Exchange. Women that, in obedience to fashion, sport a high standing feather on coifure or bonnet, and thus are a nuisance in public places where spectators behind them would like to see the stage, are merely imitating their English sisters of the eighteenth century. Some one wrote in the Times of 1795: "At all elegant assemblies there is a room set apart for the ladies to don their feathers, as it is impossible to wear them in any carriage with a top. The lusters are also removed on this account, and the doors are carried up to the ceiling. A well dressed lady who nods with dexterity can give a friend a little tap upon the shoulder across the room without incomming the dancers. The ladies' feathers are now generally carried in the sword case at the back of the carriage. In Berlin the number of men between seventy and eighty is 12,898, while the number of women is 25,204. In Greater Berlin the figures are 20,494 and 37,520, respectively. The number of men between eighty and ninety in Berlin is 2,036, and the number of women is 5,371. Three out of every four nonagenarians in this city are women. "Lady Jockeys" promise to be a regular feature of races in France, but the woman cab driver, the "femme cocher," is disappearing from the streets of Paris. Six years ago there were at least 100; now there are only six or seven, and of these all but one will soon disappear. The survivor says that at first men rushed for cabs driven by women, and gave generous tips, but that was when the woman cab driver was celebrated in song and in the revue. Then came neglect. This reminds us that about half a century ago Mrs. Cuyler of London was known as the "Calman's Terror," for she knew the distance between any two points and handed the exact fare. And now there is a woman in London who is accused of this hobby: She takes taxicabs and compels the drivers to sue her for their fares. The hobby of certain swell women in Paris is a more available one. They make shoes. The Daily Chronicle says that this a revision to a London mania of over a century ago. Mrs. Charles Calvert wrote in her diary on May 4, 1888: "I begin a new science today—shoemaking. It is all the fashion. I had a master with me for about two hours, and I think I shall be able to make very nice shoes." And in the same month Lady Sarah Spencer wrote to her brother: "I am today in a state of great vanity. I have, to my eternal glory be it spoken, made a pair of shoes. There is for you! So if all other trades fail I shall certainly establish myself cross-legged at the corner of an alley and earn a livelihood in the midst of leather, awls, and hammers. In the evening Harriet and I divide our time between musket and shoe-making, which is now the staple trade of the family."—Philip Hale in Boston Herald. Presence of Mind. In front of his Chelsea house Sir Thomas Moore had a garden and gatehouse, and, as there was a pleasant view from the summit of the gatehouse, he used frequently to sit there, accompanied only by his dog. Here it was that he was found one afternoon by a wandering maniac, who crept upstairs and saw the feeble old man dozing. "Leap, Tom, leap!" he cried, and at the same time tried to throw him over the battlements. Moore had not physical strength enough to resist, but he had the wit to say: "Let us first throw this little dog over." The man immediately threw down the dog. "Pretty sport," said the lord chancellor. "Now, do down and bring him up; then try again." While the madman went down for the dog More made fast the door behind him, and so managed to hold the fort until deliverance came. How Insects Acquire Caste. How insects Acquire Caste. The various castes of social insects have different appearance, but it has been supposed that they are alike on leaving the egg, and develop their peculiar characteristics artificially through differences in feeding or the action of parasites. Seeking to learn when the different forms of termites, or white ants, begin, Professor Bugnion of Paris concludes that this theory is wrong. Among the several castes of this insect, the soldiers are wingless and have very strong mandibles, and the workers, which build and bring food, have a different form, but neither reproduce. The castes known as reproducers, on the other hand, with a special development, appear to perform no part except perpetuating the species. The investigation made with a number of species shows that the peculiarities of form exist in newly hatched insects, and that therefore division into castes, like that of the sexes, takes place before the larvae are born. Poor Financial Returns Sir Ernest Shackleton, the antarctic explorer, told some amusing stories of his lecturing experiences a few days ago at the Browning settlement, Walworth. On one occasion at Letth the audience was so small that he went to the cabman outside and said: "I will pay for someone to hold the horse, and you can come in and hear the lecture." "Oh, no, thank you," said the cabman; "I'm all right where I am." Afterwards, with his wife, Sir Ernest counted his losses and said: "Twenty-five people at a shilling a head—that makes the total receipts 25 shillings." "But," said his wife, "you must deduct two shillings from that. I sent the cook and one of the maids."

Our old friend Mr. A. O. McNair, of Chicago, is now running between Hayfield and Rochester. Minn., in the service of the Chicago Great Western Railroad Company on a cafe parlor car. On Mr. McNair's next relief he will no doubt, when on "the stroll," call on his old friend fifty at the New Northwestern Cafe. Mr. O. F. Magez, 54 99th street, New York City, is holding a position with the Pullman Company as porter between New York and Chicago over the Wabash Railroad Co. lines. Notice, railroad men.

Chapman, 6142 Elizabeth street, is in the service of the Pullman Company over the Chicago Great Western Ry. Co. lines to Omaha, Neb. The colored railroad men's revification will be a winner. Mr. Grant Ray, 3447 Rhodes avenue, who holds the position as train porter in the service of the Chicago & Atlanta Ry. Co. between Chicago and Louis, Mo., was interviewed November 2, on "the stroll." He states that he will have to have his eye operated on. It appears to be a growing cancer. Mr. George Anderson, 3636 Dearborn street, is running to Pittsburgh, Pa. in the service of the Pullman Company over the Lake Shore Lines on train No. 20 out of Chicago. Messrs. W. A.

By Alice Smith [Special to The Chicago Defender.] La Grange, November 7.—There were services at both churches last Sunday. Rev. O. W. Green held the regular communion services in the evening. The tacty social given last week was a success. Prizes were given. Mrs. Helen Green received the first prize and Mrs. Richard Gains of Riverside second prize. The last meeting of the Building Fund Club was held at the home of Mrs. C. Williams. At that time two captains were suggested—Mr. Richard Gains, captain of the Men's Club, which was organized Monday evening, and Mrs. Alice Smith, leader of the Women's Club, which was also organized Monday evening. These leaders are to raise as much money as they can by the next general rally of the Building Fund Club. "The Ladies' Lycamina Culture Club gave a reception at the home of Mrs. Davis Thursday evening. October 30. When a man, charged with drunkenness at Lambeth, England, was said to have used bad language, he indignantly protested. "I am the grandfather of ten children. My oldest son has got twins. Do you think I would swear?" What Would You Say Now What Would You Say Now? It was Madame do Genlis who waxed writh in Directory times because woman's decolle dress no longer represented the aspect of an "impregnable citadel." NEW IDEA OF MOTHER-IN-LAW Possibly This is One of the Arrangements That Would Do Away With Old Problem. "John Blank has just been telling me of his trouble at home," said the lean man, as he settled back in the car seat beside an acquaintance. "I guess he tells pretty near everybody, so I'm not letting the cat out of the bag by speaking of it." "Murmured the friend, 'my mother and his wife don't get along together, and Blank is between the devil and the deep sea. Say—when do you think this weather will let up?' "Dunq," replied the lean man. "But say—I don't see why there's got to be so much mother-in-law trouble. Now you take my family. Mother is dependent on me and she lives with us. According to most people, that would spell sure trouble. But in our case it hasn't worked out that way." "Your mother and your wife are both fine women," commented the friend. "I guess that's it," agreed the lean man. "You see, I didn't marry till middle age, and mother and I lived together alone up to that time." "Then I met Florence. She was a successful business woman. It takes a lot of good hard sense to be that, and she had it. Well, we married, and she came right into my home, with mother welcoming her as a daughter. "Now, what did my mother do? Did she sit back and sulk, or did she get up and assert her supremacy "She did not. She held a business session with my wife, made a statement of assets and liabilities, as you might say, turned the business over to my wife, declared she was willing to be a consulting partner if necessary, but that it was her intention and earnest desire to be relieved of responsibilities and take a rest. "It's working out beautifully. My wife is the manager of the household. I believe that she and mother have a sort of directors' meeting once in awhile, but mother has refrained from giving any advice that wasn't asked, and has never insisted upon the carrying out of the advice she has given. She is a pleasant and honored member of our family. In times of need she has thrown herself into the work without saving herself, and we owe at least one of our children's lives to her care."—Edna K. Woolley in the Chicago News. Reason Enough for Tears The telephone bell rang sharply. Dobbs recognized his wife's voice at the other end. "No," he said. "I won't forget it. If what on earth is the matter with your wife, you taken cold already this fall?" "No-n-no—but I've been crying horribly. So has your mother." Dobbs puckered up his brows and whistled softly to himself. "Well," he ventured, "ah—that is, can't you call some sort of truce until I get there? Don't quarrel any more, dear. You know what your temper does when you let is get away from you." "Oh—but it isn't that." "Well, what is it? Tell—hello, hello!—say, contail, what's the matter? You can off from my party. Yes, you—oh, hello, dear, what was the matter? Went to wipe your eyes again? Well, for the love of Mike, quit it, will you." "Oh, dear, I would if I possibly could. But you know you like the onions in that pickle mixture cut real fine, and when I put them through the meat chopper—" Great Violinist's Kind Act. An impressive example of kindness is given by Paganini, the great musician. One cold Christmas day he was going along the streets of London when he saw a poor blind man playing on a violin trying to earn a mite with which to buy food to satisfy his hunger. But his tunes lacked power to move the hearts of people and he received no response. The poor blind man stood hungry in the cold. As Paganini approached him, he kindly patted him on the back and said, "The people give you any money?" "No, we were the reply; 'they won't open their window; it is too cold.'" "Well, lend your money," said the great musician, and I will see if they will open them for me." Paganini played as never before. The windows opened as if by magic. The people listened, and money was thrown plentifully to the beggar. The sweet violinist picked it up, gave it to the blind man, and told him to go home out of the cold. --- Club of Mutes in Paris MUSIC PARIS. A deaf and dumb club has been organized at Paris, France. Twelve hundred men and women of the French Deaf and Dumb union walked across the great stone-paved square in front of the Palace of Versailles on a recent Sunday without a sound except the sound make by their footsteps. In dead silence they walked across the Place St. Louis to the statue of the Abbe de Epee. In dead silence their leaders, who headed the procession, laid a wreath at the foot of the statue, and in dead silence speeches were made and applauded. The silent procession honored the memory, as they honor it every year, of the man who inflicted coercion what Braille did for the French in England. The club will shortly build premises. A subscription has been furnished the undertaking by the government. Not Fairly Handicapped. Two farmers happened along a road where an automobileist had had a breakdown and was busy making repairs on his car. They stopped to see what was doing, when Farmer No. 1 remarked to Farmer No. 2: "Them follors that make such a noise goin up my hill—they ought to be shot." Whereupon Farmer No. 2 replied: "Well—a little. 'Course, you live on' that goes down at lives oh' hill at goes down down the advantage. Auter-mobiles don't smoke and snort a-goin down hill." UNDER THE HEMLOCKS Darnton had watched the little thin rising feather of smoke with apprehensive surprise as he rode along the river trail. For the minute he had forgotten all about "Hemlocks," the timber and rock bungalow that had been closed for two years. "Man come back," he said briefly over one shoulder to his Shoehone guide. "No man, squaw," answered the Indian. "Girl squaw." "You have been up there?" She was washing when he arrived, washing out dish towels on the table under the hemlocks. She lifted her head as he heard his pony's tread. "I'm Darnton, the forest ranger around these parts," he announced. "I saw your fire, and just rode up to be sure. I knew that Mr. Martell was not here." "Were you worried?" she asked, snelling not exactly in a friendly way, but as if she found this official supervision amusing. And no explanation did she have away without finding out why she had done that what connection she had with Martell. He only knew that she was an artist and her name was June Campbell. "That had been two months ago. Hardly a day had passed since that he had not ridden within sight of "Hemlocks." Bruce Darnton knew before the first month was up that all the happiness of life lay up at "Hemlocks" for him, and just as he was getting acquainted fairly well, and she would ride with him for hours through the forest trails he loved, there had come Tawny Phillips. Tawny had ridden many trails. Darnton knew him as a young California timber broker. Every once in so often Tawny would ride through the country, sizing up general possibilities. Tawny was wealthy, buoyant, comradely, and most undeniably handsome. He found his way up to "Hemlocks" frequently. June liked him. One day she took Lame Bear to task for the way he had treated Tawny. The Indian had come on an errand for Darnton, and Tawny had told him to hobble his pony for him as he slipped from the saddle. Instead Lame Bear had turned and sauntered away. "You were rude to my friend, Lame Bear," she said. "Why?" "No friend." said Lame Bear stolidly. "He cut, burn, kill. He set fires for revenge. Lame Bear know. He want you for squaw. He think my man no good, no get girl for squaw. Het set fires for trouble." "How do you know?" she asked quickly. "Lame Bear see. You bring black devil box. Take him pictures, yes?" "June saw what he meant. It seemed unspeakable that this man who had come to her for days, frankly wooing her, should really choose so diabolical a means of revenge. Lame Bear kept his word. The next day he came and told her to get her pony and follow him. Miles they rode over the narrow trails. Lame Bear told her that Tawny started fires to keep Darnton away from "Hemlocks" and that he had boasted he would settle the ranger if he dared to go near the lodge. All day they were gone, the girl and the Indian. When she rode back, weared and heartstick, and yet exultant, she lay awake hours, wishing she might share the fight of Bruce Darnton against the creeping serpents of flame set on his track by the other man. She had meant to develop the films and show them to Bruce the next day. It was almost dawn when she saw the great rich glow of orange overspread the sky to the west of her. Tawny had made good his threat. She dressed and waited—her pony saddled—for the daylight, but when the first streaks of light came, they were clouded over by the mounting pillars of smoke, and Tawny himself came at a dead gallop towards her. He told her that Darnton was dead, killed by a smashing tree trunk, as he fought the fire. He told her the only way to safety lay in flight with him along the open trails away from the fire, and when she stood her ground, he laughed, and reached for her. It was Lame Bear's bullet that caught him. Sent by Darneton to protect the girl, and assure her the fire was being checked, he had watched silently his chance, and paid back old scores when Tawny lost his head. And when hours later, Bruce rode up, blackened, brushed and lame, he found the Indian in lone vigil beside his prisoner, with June calmly developing the negatives that told who set the forest fires. "We will take him down to the sheriff tomorrow," Bruce said. "I'm glad to get the goods on him this time. It was mighty, and I take that trouble to help me, Miss Jane. I don't see why—" He stopped just there and met her eyes. They looked rather tired and anxious. And an odd thing happened. Without another word, there in the shadowy living room of the old timber lodge, he some-way found her in his arms. "I'm going to stay here, Bruce," she whispered, "and ride the trails with you." The Place for Him The Mother (impatiently)—I don't know what we'll ever do with Tommy! He doesn't seem to agree with anybody. The Father (irritably)—I 'spose we'll have to make a dramatic critic out of him. Serious Drawback. Mrs. Weepurse—Wouldn't it be fine, Harold, if some one would give us an automobile? Mr. Weepurse—What would we do if we'd burst a tire? ALONG THE NORTH SHORE [Special to The Chicago Defender.] Oshkosh, Wis., November 7.—Mrs. Mary Black, widow of Alfred Black, formerly of Oshkosh, died in Chicago Monday, October 27.

Bailley, chief of Chicago Division, is still on the war path for the Grand Fountain U. O. T. R. He spoke last Sunday afternoon before the Progressive League, setting forth the principles and progress of the Grand Fountain. Later in the week he visited Evanston, Rogers Park and Lake Forest, at each and every place getting in a word for the organization. He also states that Mrs. Lou Young, the president of the Rosebud convention of the West, has sent out word that the Rosebud convention of the West will convene Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, May 26, 27 and 28, 1914. At this convention subordinate, fountains as well as Rosebuds will be entitled to have three delegates. The thirteen western states, together with the staff of grand officers, will be represented in this convention. It is hoped that by that time new territory will be devised and much result will have been obtained from the trip through the various cities in the states of Illinois and Wisconsin and other states. The Rosebud convention will be here in May, 1914.

Mrs. Jones of Indianapolis, who is visiting her daughter, was also in the office and brought good news from the True Reformers of her city. WALTER ANDERSON IN THE LIMELIGHT Elected President—Home Girls to Have Escorts. Dr. Harry W. Garnes, the "lord chancellor of heart-breakers," was deposed at the first regular election of officers of the Bachelors' Matrimony Club, which met on Thursday evening of this week. Mr. Walter Anderson was elected president and Mr. De Los Bell secretary. The members were of the opinion that Mr. Garnes was to marry an out-of-town girl, which is not exactly in keeping with the constitution; so after many flights of oratory and the ballots counted, Garnes lost like Murphy did in New York, with Anderson proving a Sulzer. Anderson won on the platform of "The home girl for me." The question was debated hotly as to what would be the most appropriate present to give the first man to marry. Some favored a baby grand piano; others a kitchen cabinet, while others a baby rattler. The grand lecturer gave a short talk on "Why We Should Marry Young." A resolution was carried unanimously that during the holidays no member should be seen going to social functions or theaters without escorting a lady. Garnes was the only opponent. It passed. --- Not One of Those "Distinguished." A Kansas man who was on his first visit to Washington recently went to the capitol, accompanied by a friend, to see congress in session. From the visitors' gallery the Kansas looked at the assembled statesmen seeking in him information from his district. "Maybe he's down there, but I can't distinguish him," said the Kansas. "Of course not," replied his Washington friend. "He can't even distinguish himself." Servants Provided Faithful In the Days of Terror during the French revolution, when human was denounced by another as an act of revenge, it was rare indeed for the authorities to receive any information from servants, though it would have been the easiest thing in the world for a servant smarting from a sense of injustice to have sent his master to the gullotine.
