Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY CRIME COURT TO BE INAUGURATED Court to Punish Offenses Against Children is Urged—Inability to Handle Causes Cases Much Delay in Justice. From the superintendent of compulsory education, Mr. W. F. Bodine, comes a call for the police to show its awful delay in the prosecution of crimes in the drenn. Says he: "There are 127 sex cases pending in the criminal courts of Chicago, some of them have been pending since 1995. The police are compelled against children under 12 and 18." He suggests that a new court be created to try such offenses, and we heartily agree with his suggestion. Crimes against children are in an angle where words are inadequate to express their terrible nature, and the fact of such a condition existing in Chicago is enough to arouse the righteous indignation of her peace and law-abiding citizens to the absolute necessity of the child as a moral and Christian duty, an obligation never to be ignored.

BY GL $500 FUND ASKED TO PROSECUTE CAMPBELL Special Fund Voted By County to Prosecute Supposed Slayer of Wife of Former Penitentiary Warden. CAMPBELL WITHOUT FRIENDS Fair-Minded Citizens Say That the Indicted Prisoner Should Have a Fair and Impartial Trial and Steps to That End Should Be Taken. Jollet, Oct. 15—The grand jury of Will county met last week and during the early part of this week returned an indictment charging Joseph Campbell with the murder of Mrs. Allen, wife of the former Warden of Jollet penitentiary. The prosecuting authorities of Jollet are active in their preparations to try the defendant. State's Attorney Martin will be boarded and asked for a special fund of the hundred dollars to help him in the prosecution. On the other hand Campbell has no relatives, no friends and is absolutely permissible to make his fight against this combination of prosecutors and this extra fund of public money supplied to the state's attorney. He is cheerful, however, under it all because he says he is not guilty and all he asks is a fair and impartial trial. Notwithstanding the awful circumstances which surround him, people are numerous who say that he ought to have equal and exact justice. For the purpose of giving Campbell a fair trial an effort is being made in the interest of justice to furnish him competent counsel to try his case. A defense fund is being raised in Chicago, the Negro Followship Chicago head office, and the committee of prominent men will also take active part in raising necessary funds for the trial. The defense is in the hands of F. L. Barnett, formerly assistant state's attorney of this city, and during the past month he has made complete preparation for the trial and will not ask any delay. He expresses his belief that Campbell did not kill Mrs. Allen and says that while the circumstances surrounding the tragedy are very mysterious and many facts seem to involve Campbell, still they will all be explained when Campbell takes the witness stand. Chicago citizens are interested in the case of Campbell. They do not want to shield a guilty man, they do not want a murder to go unavenged but they do want the man accused of the crime to have the benefit of a fair trial.

A SUBTLE EFFORT TO SOUTHERNIZE THE NORTH The Spirit of Blease, Vardaman and Tillman Cannot Be Permitted to Exist in the North if They Expect to Hold Their Idealism. The "Birth of Nations" is a lie! Its brutal attack against the order, dignity and power of the communities is everywhere endangered. Mr. William H. G. Gaston of St. Paul, Minn., makes this point clear in his letter to the St. Paul Dispatch, which reads To the Editor of the Dispatch: The "Birth of a Nation" in the near future is to appear at the Auditorium in purpose of this play is to Southernize the city. The dispatched subtitle effort to imbue the spirit of Ku Klux Klan, Night Riding, and all the abominate lawlessness of the Southland. The type has succeeded in poisoning the city and mob violence against an already despised and oppressed people? Why should the people of the North point the minds, their young to be poisoned with the blood of the Southland and mob violence against an already despised and oppressed people? This play is a product of the brain of the author in imbued with that same spirit from 1861 to 1865, torn our flag out of the blue heavens and dashed our nation asunder. The brain that produced this play was permitted to be heaped upon the unprotected negro girl, and would sanction the execution of the male members of the negro race without jury, judge or law. The brain that produced this play was permitted to spread their infectious disease of lawlessness and crime among the people of the North? Do we wish our people of the North to be Southernized? Southern men as Bless, Vardaman, Tillman and Watson? Remember, the negro even in our own good state is to the disadvantage of being voiceless in an enemy. Will the good people see him maligned?

I came away with a great sense of shame at the vitriol in the play. That so-called educated, cultured man could stoop to put the start of an important invasions on the Negro race, was disgusting to me. Every white man that he did because he was made to be the leader of the house he also knows that any white crowd or would have done the same things when they were led by the highest man when they were led by the highest leader of the house, led them on to the pitch where a break had to come. In the picture a single act elevating the Negro, that every action was one of degratification, I could see an example of the highest fidelity in the self-narrative of their lives and the man they were facing in the master man. I doubt if any white man or woman would do for their former task. And we know that there were thousands of Negroes who were doing the same thing as the last lasting monument should be erected by the Negroes to the failfulness of the Negroes. Mr. Ford says the scenes of bringing the first slaves to this country create prejudice, for it refreshes the memory of the man of the black man's recent sentiment.

To me this picture is an unfinished affair. In order to be just to the Negro is the wonderful and tremendous advance the colored race has made along education, industrial, spiritual, economic, human resources, and so on, shown during the Fifthth Jubilee Exposition at the Coliseum. I visited it five times, and I am still impressed as I contribute on and off articles to Europe. My kindly upon the life character of the Negro is the subject of my about prejudice I feel like Lincoln did about slavery when he said: "If I were to have a chance, I never gave the Negro a chance." And I have boots, for they deserve it, judging by what they have accomplished in the short time I spent there.

Gray Lucas, chairman of department of music, has used and attached the property of the commission. Mike R. Lucas 25 N. Dearborn Street, Chicago, Ill. Dear Sir: In reply to your letter I am directed to say that it will be adjusted for the Commission to adjust any accounting accounts for at least 15 days. As "Chairman and Manager of the Department of Music" of the Illinois Commission Half-Century Exposition, half-century-old bible, the well-known Attorney J. Gray Lucas has not been paid the remainder of the money due on his contract, constructive damages at the Commission at the end of each week of the Exposition, twenty-five per week. The additional debt implied by the letter to him, apparently has brought this money no nearer his possession. Mr. Lucas expected to pay off the remainder of the debt, and paid are the choirs of the various churches, who as the "Grand Jubilee chorus, together with wonderful choruses, together with musical organizations of the city of Chicago, who were paid up to the end and performers, as well as all solos and performers. Nothing seems left to do but bring suit and to use the very strong arm of law and the Commission of the city court. Mr. Lucas says that he proposes to attack by "hand and sea," whatever he was legally construed, forthwith. He desires the above letter and statement to serve to notify all interested in any way, who may not otherwise be involved in the fight against the Commission by him.

It is now try as described by Ezekiel 36-24: "For you take from among the heathen, and give to them, and will bring you into your own land." With all the handicaps thrown around the race, you see their progress, if the U. S. cannot. O thou who art waiting, Tarry no longer, for He has come; Behold His temple; The glory dwelling thinsin. It is the ancient glory With a new manifestation. PRAYER O thou kind God; to me thou art kinder to myself, and thy love is more abundant than any other. I am reminded of the bestowals I am made to receive, the ease of having been agitated I obtained the ease of having been agitated If I am sick, I gain eternal health. If I am sick, I become loyal. If I have been hopeless, I become loyal. Lord of the Kingdom: cause thou the weak spirit, and strengthen my nerves. Illumine my eyes; suffer my harpen to the music of the Kingdom, attain to the joy and happiness everlasting, and the gift of the giver, the gift of the kind—Abel. MADAM C. J.

HIGH-BROWN FACE POWDER was originated by us—we have the name copyrighted in the United States Patent Office, and it is the first and only face powder ever made especially for colored people. Only first class articles are imitated—the very fact that so many imitate our articles is proof in itself that ours is of a superior quality. When you buy a face powder for a "High-Brown" that has not the name Overton-Hygienic on it, you have been imposed upon; for you have bought an imitation, which is inferior to our original "High-Brown."

If you are of school age—whether beds of boys and girls are growing up or of what is taught in the school room. of the street, however, they are wiser for leaving school is given that it to help support the family. In some instances it is not; the child brain sees knowledge for future use, but lives only directly responsible for permitting their future career. schools have come into existence the last three disasters. The working hours and the night school offers an advantage as both the brain and the hands are to some attractive study offered every student, and as knowledge is something that no can should take advantage of the spider it schools. THERE IS LITTLE EXCUSE FOR IGNORANCE in this day and time, when facilities for getting an education are right at your door, and very often forced upon you—if you are of school age—whether you want it or not, and yet hundreds of boys and girls are growing up about who only have a smattering of what is taught in the school room. When it comes to the knowledge of the street, however, they are wiser than Methuselah. The usual excuse for leaving school is given that it is necessary to find a place where the instances is true, but in the majority of cases it is not; the child brain is of storing away knowledge for future use, but lives only in the present, and parents are directly responsible for permitting them to fall by the wayside and mar their future career. Since night schools have come into existence the last prop has been taken from under these deserters. The working hours and the school hours do not conflict, and the night school offers an advantage over the day school, inasmuch as both the brain and the hands are taught at the same time. There is some attractive study offered every student, be they six or sixty years old, and knowledge is something that no one can get too much of those who can should take advantage of the splendid opportunities offered by the night schools. INTIMIDATING GRAND JURIES A small bank and file of citizens living in a community are expected to administer justice, while raising their own lives in their hands, ruining their fellow citizens. It is impeded to investigate crimes committed by judge jobbers, compose the force law, or the consciences of the semirighteous indicted lynchers? Yet we have been the past few years that sentiment was a consequence and that the time was rapidly a way would courageously perform their duties all a mistake; and judges are we are to judge by recent occurrences, we have future. Another of Southern States suffered from a misunderstanding, grand jurids have rigged to identify any of the participants. That is the whole miserable business, for, besides, encouragements to persist in their actions, it shows a degree of moral obliquity that discredits our civil institutions and are usually composed of men of respite, and to say they could not, if they were who the leaders of the mob are, would awaken officers of the law deliberately re-engage with the complicity by grand jurors an element of society who do likewise. PUBLIC SENTIMENT IS ALL POWERFUL. A small body of men taken from the rank and file of citizens living in a community where mob law rules cannot be expected to administer justice, when perhaps by so doing they are taking their own lives in their hands, ruining their business or becoming unpopular with their fellow citizens. Grand juries impaired to investigate crimes committed in the South hauled upon as huge jokes, a cog in the force law machinery which attaches to the law in the Southern States, a grand jury ever indicted lynchers? Yet we have been told from time to time during the past few years that sentiment was running strongly against mob violence and that the time was rapidly approaching when judges and juries would courageously perform their duties. It seems, however, that it is all a mistake; judges and juries are still afraid of the mob, and if we are to judge by recent occurrences, we have little to hope for in the immediate future. It is the number of Southern States suffered from an unusual number of mob crimes, and as usual, grand juries have reported that it has been impossible to identify any of the participants. This is the most disquieting feature of the whole miserable business, for besides giving aid and comfort to lynchers, encouraging them to persist in their demoralizing and murderous practices, it shows a degree of moral obliquity among sworn officers of the law that discredits our civil institutions and menaces our social peace and security. Grand juries are usually composed of men of responsibility and of average intelligence, and to say they could not, if they wanted to find out in detail, the reasons for the lynchings, the sheerest nonsense. When sworn officers of the law deliberately refuse, through unobstructive a subterfuge as that employed by grand juries, what can we say against the ignorant element of society who do likewise? MINDING YOUR OWN BUSINESS.

It takes so much time to att though you were inclined to listen to doing yourself as much of an injustice A VILLAGE PHILOSOPHER rises to remark that if you wish to know all about a family, employ the hired girl who formerly worked for it. That's one way, and another is to listen to the village gossip who makes it her business to attend to everybody's business but her own, and there are many forms of village gossips, the most contemptible of all being the one who gets into and get into your confidence only to be beryl it at the first opportunity. The busy man or woman has little time to listen to scandal about their friends; even if it is served up daintily they refuse to listen or talk upon the subject, and by so doing spare themselves a great deal of embarrassment and unpleasantness. It takes so much time to attend to your own business that even though you were inclined to listen to gossip, you should also be doing yourself as much of an injustice as you are the one maligned.

Something happened, as it always does in this lawless State, to mar the trip, and that something was the presence of four colored chauffeurs to whom the "best citizens" of Forsyth County strenuously objected, and so peeved did they become they threw brick bats, stones, sticks and, in fact, anything they could lay their hands on at the objectionable drivers and their "storical passengers." This demonstration was the execution of the policy which Forsyth e have pursued for some years of allowing no Negroes to come into county, and these four men were the first to cross the county line since that their rights as visitors who had been invited to a strange country to say nothing of their rights as citizens upon a public highway, had not been respected. Wright Willingham of Rome, speaking before a large assembly, took a deserved ran at Forsyth people, when he said: "A sense of duty to my State will not permit me to remain silent over a liability which thrusts itself upon us in the beautiful county of Forsyth, where, going today as their guests on this mission of peace and progress and co-operation, we are confronted with a spirit on the part of many of the citizens of that county which would seem to me to be the antithesis of all the virtues we have discovered elsewhere, and this because every Negro driver from the car, and every Negro tourist from the car, has a few of our tourists had Negro drivers for their cars, culminating in an effort at Cumming on the part of Forsyth County citizens to take one of our Negro drivers from the car, and to do with him the Lord knows what. "Conditions like this can no longer be regarded with calm satisfaction, but must commend themselves to the patriotic men of our State. The men of Georgia, the men who represent this State in the Legislature, the Judges of Georgia, the men who represent this State in the unchance which is being bred in this Commonwealth, and which ultimately, unless checked, will bury its fangs in the entire body politic." ```markdown ``` Further we sayeth not; Mr. Willingham seems to have entirely covered the ground.

CHICAGO DEFENDER The Vacant Chair J.HOGLEY SHILEY MILWAUKEE A CITY-WIDE CAMPAIGN to increase the membership of the Y. M. C. A. in Chicago has just closed with a record unprecedented in the history of this big city. Thousands of new names have been enrolled and the hand of fellowship has been extended to a class of people heretofore selfishly indifferent to the great good these institutions are doing. Interest has not been as keen in this work as it should be, to owe the fact that the real object of a "Y" is so little understood. The married man's reason for not joining is that he has a home of his own to go to; the single non-member has a vague idea that it is another form of church work, and if he joins he will be deprived of many of the enjoyments of life. "Ys" are always non-sectarian—there is nothing churchy about them, save the spirit of helpfulness and co-operation that is evidenced all about and the Sunday services which savor no more of one religion than another. There is no excuse for any man not giving his moral and financial support to an institution whose only object is the uplifting of men and boys, we are extremely proud of the record made by the Wabash Avenue Depository. A I. A. is carrying such a large addition to their membership in the past five days, we are more than a man, young or old, living in this city who does not feel it a privilege to be identified with an institution that is doing more to break down the bars of prejudice and make a place in the sun for us than any other agency known. It isn't the other fellow—you are the one benefited; so show your appreciation right now in a tangible way. A NEW LABOR SCHEME. A FLORIDA TOWN has added on the streets.

IT IS ALWAYS WELL TO RUN while running is good, and our Southern friends see in the suffragettes' proposed amendment to the Federal Constitution a bitter pill that they will be expected to swallow if the measure goes through, and that pill is that if women are given the ballot the "brunettes," who in many States are in the vast majority, will have the same privilege, and that would never sit well on the stomachs of the superior (2) race. The Baltimore Sun alarmingly says: "While this amendment would not in direct terms confer the right of suffrage upon women, it would do so in effect, just as the Fifteenth Amendment in effect conferred the suffrage, and that pill would be infused under the blight of Negro suffrage and has exhausted her ingenuity the evil, it will never consent to have the number of Negro votes doubled." Of course this "serious obstacle" is met by the women who declare that the votes of the Negro women would be met and nullified by the votes of white women, but this assurance didn't sound well to the Solid South, who are doubly scared now that the "Granfather" clause has been declared unconstitutional. The North, not being bothered with this vexed question, sees no reason why women cannot have the ballot, and several States have already bid them enter the ring. It is a stubborn fact that whatever enamors from the North is obnoxious to the South, and is fought with all the bitter feeling that characterized the unpleasantness between the two sections of the country some fifty odd years ago, and WE are always the bone of contention. It is a wonder our friends and WE are always the bone of contention. We are receive so much attention We are sorry for the cause of the suffragettes if we are in the way, for we believe their cause is a just one, but we can't fade away and be concious by our absence, even to please the South. OKLAHOMA COMES IN.

In the Oklahoma Constitution a clause provided that anyone must read and write any section of the State Constitution as a prerequisite to voting. As might be expected, this rule was applied only to members of our race, who stood as much show of getting by the judges as a lamb would of getting out of the clutches of a gorilla. Votes were thrown out for not crossing "ts" and dotting "ts" and other reasons just as ridiculous. Two election officials convicted of conspiracy appealed on the ground that there could be no conspiracy, as they were merely enforcing the law. The court, however, decided that there had been a conspiracy and election officers who kept Negroes from voting must be punished. Various means have been used in the Southern States to get around the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments, but the shrewdest and most men of the was that adopted by the Supreme Court as "the Grandfather Clause," which in substance provided that only those should vote whose grandfathers voted before the end of the civil war. The Southerner has made up his mind to retain his supremacy by the ballot box or the shot gun, often both, and seems loath to realize that he is OUR HERO JOHN HOCKLEY SMILEY THE PASSING AWAY OF JOHN HOCKLEY SMILEY takes from Chicago life a well-known and well-loved personality. When the tale of mortal life is ended, when a period has been placed after the lines which tell of mingled joys and sorrows, failure and achievements, it is a human custom to recount the things which make for good or its reverse in the life of him who has gone to that "bourne from which no traveler returns." In the reviewing career of John Hockley Smiley one sees so much of good that the failures, the mistakes perhaps become negligible quantities. When one recalls the kindness, the courtesy, the loyalty to friends the deep appreciation of benefits received, feels that memories will not soon erase the name of so gentle a spirit. Material accumulation is never the test of a life success. Even a material world is beginning to find out that fact. The treasures of truth, of kindness, of honor and of sincerity—these spiritual riches placed in the scales—makes the balance on the right side. And even along the lines of this spiritual accumulation no man can judge his brother. Only He who sees the hidden aspirations which perhaps are never realized, who knows the desperate striving after an ideal which is never attained. Because perchance of some weakness or unfavorable environment only He, the all wise, can be the proper judge. In life results tell, but efforts surely count. John Hockley Smiley had in dreams his aspirations and made his many effort for their realization. Ill health and adverse circumstances threw their deterring shadows across his pathway, but those who knew him best saw his high purpose and sharp struggle and saw him loved him and feel that he then not lived in vain. He was a newspaper man of marked ability and in him the Defender loses a valuable worker and friend. living in a different age than his forefathers. His fight is just as futile, just as senseless as is his reasoning along lines where the Negro is concerned. Experience and the lessons of history are lost upon this class and they must be brought to their senses by the iron rod of justice, not as they see it, but as the fair-minded onlooker sees it. They die hard, but let us rejoice that they are dying. A FEW RACE POLICEWOMEN would add materially to the efficiency of the police force in the Second Ward. What has become of the agitators?

It makes us aware that something is wrong, and we approach, Then, too, chest pain or pain in a region of the heart often lead us to the cause and an explanation of it to the cause and an explanation of the significance of these pains. Suppose you were running your automobile, or the engine you should hear your motor missing would you continue to increase speed by 10%? You should hear the intelligent engineer would pull the throttle and put on more steam to the engine if it is not blinding true?

And is it not just as you love you would say that you have shortened of breath, the irritation, irregular heart action and tightness, your heart you consider it your duty to shut down your motor so you can go and have an examination made and ascertain the cause of your faulty heart. Angina Pectoris. Angina Pectoris means pain in chest. This disease is more common in men than in women, and it is more prevalent in middle or between the ages of 40 and 65 years. It is often caused by worry, mental strain, violent fits and a lack of rest, stipation, and too high blood pressure brought on by a high speed of social life. It can lead to fullness, tightness in chest, pain under the chin, and a signal for you to let up on your high tension. It means that you are worrying too much, that you must get more peaceful sleep, that you must let up on your engine—the heart—because you are going at too great a speed and sooner or later to wreck your engine. True Angina Pectoris means there is a dissection of heart muscles and of the arteries which supply blood to the tissues, and this condition is very dangerous. In a diseased condition of the arteries or hardening of the arteries, you are liable to have a chest distrophice.
