Mr. Ellie Gower, editor of Haiti-Integrals, was twice arrested by United States marine who forcibly took possession of his printing office, armed with rites and revolvers, and sentenced to 120 days' imprisonment solely because of his "stubborn and persistent refusal to obey the orders of the grand provost," who insisted that every editor should send a copy of every issue of their respective papers to his office, free of charge. I am quoting from the circular sent out by this "grand provost" to the other members of the Haitian press. The business manager was fined $500 for the same offense, and the printer and publisher was allowed to go free on his promise never to print that paper any more.

New York, Oct. 29.—Mr. E. K. Jones, associate director of the National League on Urban Conditions, will be in Chicago from November 8 to November 10 in the interests of the work of his organization, his work is to make an index into the social work being done in the city and to determine whether there is a place in this community for such activities as this organization fosters. The National League on Urban Conditions was organized five years ago, and the organization is now co-operating organization of the State of New York. It is composed of both white and colored people and is intertwined in the form of co-operation among active organizations, working in the public and in the private workers, making studies of conditions among Negroes in cities, and promoting agencies for social uplift in lines in which there is need for larger social services. It has already organized movements in cities. Here, where Mr. Jones makes his headquarters, the league has organized "big brother" and "big sister" work in the children's court; has conducted a series of auctions for the work of various changes; has established a镶嵌增进家庭 for women; has organized neighborhood unions for community improvement; has opened a workshop for unemployed men which last winter cost $3,430, and has been held in the city and other forms of relief to those in the城市. During the health week campaign last year, the league distributed 111,000 pieces of literature in 18,000 colored hones. As a result of the campaign it is now publishing a collection with the city department of health, a butlet which treats of better health matters. MME. HACKLEY DELIGHTS AUDIENCE Prima Donna Holds Audience Spellbound with Her Wonderful Voice. By W. A. Johnson. fansing, Miley, Oct. 29.—Mme. E. Azalia Hackley of Chicago appeared in her latest role as soprano, in song recital and demonstration in vocal culture, at Geo. R. Collins A. M. E. church on Tuesday, Oct. 19, before a large and appreciative audience who will vouch for her ability as a high-class and remarkable entertainer. The rendition of her program was all that could be desired by the most errant person present. It consisted of folk songs, sentimental and operatic selections, which were given in the highest artistic and pleasing manner. Her demonstrations in vocal culture were highly instructive, especially on the subject of hygiene and breathing, and were frequently interspersed with humorous sayings which sharply accentuated her illustrations. The ladies of the reception committee deserve especial mention for the manner in which they conducted affairs, making the evening's entertainment pleasant for everyone. RACE PREJUDICE UNDER FIRE Against the Law of the Trinity Humanity's Cruelest, Darkest Foe the Spirit of Hell's Consuming Fire. THE WORLD'S CON- SCIENCE ACTIVE A Wave of Moral Intelligence Worldwide in Scope is Awakened and Alive Which Becomes a Vital Factor for Suppression of a Grave Wrong. HIGHER ETHICS OF LOVE GAIN. Gospel of Unity. Millions of men and women throughout the countries of the world have been led to the entire remission of ravage, through the teachings of the great prophet and revelator of God's commands to humanity, Baha'u'lah. Allow me to quote some of his utterances on this subject, uniting the whole world in the bonds of love, amity and brotherhood. "In order that the darkness of strife might be banished from the world, His Holiness, Baha'u'lah, established and taught certain declarations or principles. First principle which the Oneness of the human family constitute the sheep of God's flock. The real Shepherd is God." The real Shepherd is compassionate and kind towards all the members of His flock. Humanity was created by God; He provides for all the beings that is kind to all God created humanity." "O Children of man! Do ye know why we have created ye from one clay? That no one should glorify himself over the other. Be ye ever mindful of how ye were created. Since we created ye all from one substance, ye must be as one soul, walking with the same feet, eating with one mouth and living in one land, that ye may manifest with your being, and by your deeds and actions, the agony of unity and the spirit of oneness. This is my counsel to ye, O people of light! Therefore, follow it, that ye may attain the fruits of holiness from the Tree of Night and Power." (Baha's "llah.) "We desire you to be the one of thebiggest of all the happiness of the nations. ♦ ♦ That all nations should become one in faith, and all men as brothers; that the bonds of affection and unity between the sons of men should be strengthened. ♦ ♦ Let not a man glory in this, that he loves themself, that he loves his kind." (Baha's "llah.) "O ye discerning ones of the people! Verily, the words which have descended from the heaven of the will of God are the source of unity and harmony for the world. Close your eyes to rachat differences and welcome all glory in this, of oneness. Be the cause of the comfort and the advancement of humanity. This handful of dust, the world, is one home; let it be in unity. Forsake pride; it is a cause of discord. Follow that which tends to harmony." By W. A. Johnson. Openness of Creation.

"BIRTH OF A NATION" DENOUNCED INDIANS TO RECEIVE EQUAL RIGHTS. Abolition of Tribal Courts—Congressional Action Sought. Hampton, Va., Oct. 23—There can never be a question of greater importance to the people of the United States than the one of equality before the law. This question will be held directly before the next Congress at Washington concerning the Indian. The Committee on Indian Relations of the Constitutional Convention held in New York, have made a strong recommendation to abolish all tribal courts. Indians are not subject to the United States law, they are subject to the general jurisdiction of its laws. Congress has the power to restore them to citizenship which will carry with a equality before every court in the nation.

MOUND BAYOU OPENS NEW BANK Race Men Comply with New Bank Act, and Open Doors for Business in Creditable Style. (Special to Chicago Defender.) Mound Bayou, Miss. Oct. 23.—The opening for business of the Mound Bayou stock and $2,000 surplus fully paid in, complying with the Guarantee Act of the State of Mississippi, is noted as an act of grant to the theft and integrity of its founders. This is the second bank in issue under the new law. The office is G. T. Montgomery, president; C. H. Vice president; W. R. Kyle, secretary; C. M. Cecil, executive manager.

French was in the city last week and became owner of several new books by race author Robert "Roger" French is president of the book firm "Roger," K. C. K., an ex-mail carrier, and now a progressive farmer. Mr. French is working assiduously to secure the "interstate agreement" for our sister city across the Kaw. (By G. E. M. Harris.) --- there are no hives in the South to stop it, and that this government sits like a monster again at the picture door, we see how the poor farmers are made to look at them. It is dreadful. We print from the postage stamps that you can see are facts that you can't deny. This crime must be stopped and it will only be done when the farmers will be surrendered. This tyranny never recorded, although three weeks ago no press no pulpit, white or black, no police, no house that is being taught by the "Birth of a Nation." This is the thing the daily news media are house that uses any of Griffith's physics books and any woman of the race who living there the South like they had to do in slavery or in neighborhood; or do as the race men have done in Savannah, Ga., call the friends to the door and shoot them. SEPARATE COACHES NATIONAL SHAME Illegal Enactments by State Legislation: Contrary to Federal Law—Violation of Civil Rights Injuries Race. — Moral Degradation. The right of all persons to equal service by a common carrier is the foundation of its charter. When a person is the person of the same foreign power of the people, through the legislative to a common carrier, may not be amended to render less service, or that of an inferior nature, to its patrons. It is compatible with justice and the strict needs of society that equal service alike be granteed. Jimrow Cars Established. The legislature in several states have committed acts of great public wrong against the peace and dignity of men and women of the race. Following the reign of lawlessness and terror in southern California, the State was rapidly against orderly and peace-loving by lawsuits, the crowing act of vile disgrace. No act of a rebel secession court has overshadowed it with wanton viciousness to do hurt to the public. This is a simple narrative of the truth. Outrage committed against American citizenship stands alone for its grievous error. Beginning in 1881 with Tennessee, Florida in 1887, Misssissippl in 1888, Texas in 1889, Louisiana in 1890, Alabama, Kentucky in 1891, Arkansas and Georgia in South Carolina in 1895, North Carolina in 1899, Virginia in 1900, Maryland in 1904, Oklahoma in 1907, the states as mentioned one after another became the breeding center of lawless ais, contrary to the Federal Constitution, and given its purpose to humiliate and destroy our peace and happiness. The Terrible Result Follows. In order to comply with this spirit of hell and damnation concocted into law, it must be manhood and womanhood of the race. The manhood of the race is more than the manhood of the race. Separate coaches, separate depots and inferior accommodation are set apart for an honorable citizenship who pays for accommodations that are denied them. Twelve million people are thus insulted by the blackguards of civilization. Think of a condition in a great and glorious republic where women and children are not to be married, or women and children are not to be married, or women and children are not to be married. The manhood of the race is unpopular, highways of the nation when it is necessary for them to go from one city to another. We are forced to pay for equal accommodation as white patrons pay, and at the same time the accommodation offered is an insult to decency and manhood. Evil Influence Felt. Decency and common respect for the race is forced to its lowest ebb through the use of separate coaches. The lesson to the young is the seed of anarchism. Violence and sin lurk behind this cruel deed and you kindle the embers of racial hatred to consume your own soul. Disgrace? Ah! the fires of destruction were never more evenly kindled. Remember that it is the best to reap. Perhaps not you, but your children will be better toward of the evil thou hast sown. SHAME! SHAME!

ORGANIC LAW FREE OF PREJUDICE. Prejudiced Action in this Way Runs Parallel With a Biased Public Opinion, Which Accommodates As Much Injury and Harm to Members of the Race Through Church Organization As in the Hall of Congress. By B. E. 105 Greenville, Miss., Oct. 27.—To the Editor of The Chicago Defender: My Dear Sir—I notice in the editorial column of your valuable paper of the second inst., the following comment: "The Methodist Episcopal Church went on record as drawing the color line when they refused at their general conference to appoint a member of the race as bishop to represent the members of his church in the South. When religious bodies get the fever, what can be expected of laymen?" Appearing, as it does, in the editorial columns, I feel that some attempt to explain why "the Methodist Episcopal Church went on record as drawing the color line" should be made for the enlightenment of the "neutral" public, and the readers of your valuable paper Racial Percentage. There are one and one-half millions of Negroes in the distinctively Negro Methodist churches in this country. Taking this number and putting them with the colored members in the Methodist Episcopal Church, you would have a Negro constituency in the church of at least two million. The membership of the Methodist Episcopal church exclusive of its colored members, is three million. This would give us a total of five million members, two-fifths of which would be colored. Since it takes a two-thirds majority to elect any man to the Episcopacy in our church, you can see that the colored man almost upon a color issue could, by mere force of numbers, elect, or block the election, of any man to the Episcopacy. Oh! I hear you say the Negro in the other churches referred to is his own man, and Independent. Bosh! No man, race, people, state or country is or can be, strictly speaking, independent; the very spirit or principle that Christ attempted to destroy while here on earth. Religious Anarchism What means all this rumpus in the strictly Negro churches of today if it is not "race independence" or "manhood" intoxation? I simply refer you to the spirit that exists among the Board of Bishops of the A. M. E. church, and that episode at Jackson, Mississippi, the other day, the burning of a bishop in efficiency. Which would you prefer to fight? The white man's prejudice, or the Negro's spirit of brotherly discourtesy, or race sectionalism, or bigotry, or anarchy and mob violence? For our part, we prefer the former task, believing it less formidable and less dangerous. Solicit of Race Members Yes, we Negroes in the Methodist Episcopal church would rather stay and fight the evils we have than to "fly to" Fily, the city where we are finally. Wish to say that we are just trying to put a law into the constitution by which we may be able to elect men of Japanese, Korean Episcopal, Negro, or any other colored race representative, to this office. Remember, we occupy the same church as the Methodist E'pical church that the Negroes in America—fighting "race presuppose" to face like real men—and the Negroes in the States nowadays on account ofition.

Adopts Plan 100 NEWPAPERS, PERIODICALS EMPLOY Big Business Follows with R. R. Company—Board Organized in 1905 to Advance Educational Ends—Success Assured. By Dr. A. Gliden, Lecturer and Member Advisory Council Simplified Spelling Board of America. (Written by D. Deferder). Simplified spelling and spelling reform are not necessarily the same thing. Anyone may invent a reform in spelling and simplification, but ideas of his own; but simplified spelling is a regulative movement designed to reduce the number of misspellings guage according to law, in response to the demand of reason, 'economy and or- Organized 1905. The Simplified Spelling Board that organized this movement in 1905, after successive generations has helped in vain to increase the number of native speakers of the difficulties in the way of learning to read and spell English correctly, has succeeded in the long term in public and institutional both desirable and feasible. After an educational campaign covering ten years, its present aim is to enlist the co-operation of newspapers and people to lay down a recognition of people at large to simplified forms in ordinary news matter. For this purpose the National Educational Association in 1895 and since 1905 has issued an official correspondence and publications. The valuable Economy. The primary list in simplification follows: the for the UGH altho for the UGHU thro for the UGHUH throout for the UGHUHout thoro for the UGHUH thoroly for the UGHUHy thorordum for the UGHUH program for programMB prolog for prologUB decalog for decalogUB pelagos for pedagogyUB prologus for prologUB In the simplified spelling of these 13 instances of the useless u-ing in "tho," "thoro," and their compounds, the spellings of the useless u-ing in other words in the English language ending in an "u" sound, like no, fro, go, or go, are often used in the perilous u-ing in "catalog," etc., the spelling of such words harmonies with that dog, frog, clog, before, after, or It is thus seen that the plan is economical, sensible and easy. A prominent feature of this plan is the new style of spelling in his newspaper about a year ago, recently declared he would not take $1,000 to go back to the school. Simplified spelling has been adopted by more than 200 newspapers and perlite newspapers. A number of his number are included publications with a circulation running into hundreds of thousands, and whose readers embrace all classes of the population. More than 20 schools employ simplified forms in office and school work, and permit their use by students in their class work. Among such institutions the largest and most influential colleges and teachers' associations in a considerable number of states and teachers' associations approve simplified spelling and are regularly using it. Four spelling books are now on the market containing lists of words in similar spelling. Current读者的 preference prefers them to the older forms. Business houses have begun to recognize the advantages of the shorter spellings in their advertising, while railroads and other this corporations are using the same spelling in their advertisements and other forms of publicity. The office of a transcontinental railroad is recently issued an order to all journals within the country to emplify the spelling in all display advertisements. Simplified spelling has other advantages besides those mentioned. In what follows, we are prevented from learning English by foreigners who immigrate to America and Spanish-speaking countries. Many South American basilicaries are prevented from learning English by foreigners who immigrate to America would the more quickly absorb the essential forms of reading and write English correctly were not so hard to travel. The child in the basilicaries did not have to spend so large a part of his school life in learning to shoulder the responsibilities of learning to read correctly and spelling. As in the case of the children of European nations the spelling is easier and sensible, the average English-speaking child can learn years to learn to spell correctly, and the average child can learn no more sure of himself unless he has a certain arms' length, would be able to devote the previous years of childhood to a different activity, and a d-a-u-h-t-e-r and l-a-u-h-t-e-r are not pronounced alike, and that o-g-h has a different sound in each of the following words, enough, enough, enough is doing a spelling work in helping us spread this reform. It constitutes the entire library of a significant part of the people. It facilitates the learning of simplified spelling by putting into practice what its promoters are claiming. It facilitates a social function of the highest value.

FRUITS OF VICTORY STOLEN. Are Taxed Without Representation Right Laws Dented UsT—The Abuse of Justice Common Under Laws Prohibiting Slavey. IDOMITABLE COURAGE TO WIN. taxation without representation was a corner stone of the great Revolution 1776, at which time America was declared a republic. The accomplishment of that freedom were 6,000 race men who served the Continental Army under General George Washington. We assisted in helping others secure freedom of which today is defended by the United States. A few dozen of citizenship and as a result which there are today upon the statutes of the Constitution, a few amendments to the Constitution, ranting to all men the freedom enjoyment of life, liberty and pursuit of happiness. We found the government and that which pertains to ability of citizenship. We found these fundamental principles the race we denied, and in their place we are supposed to the vault that one man Taxation without representation is the paramount issue of the race. We are taxed to the utmost limit in the South by an arbitrary government which neither reasons or pauses in its method of extreme cruelty towards the race. We are denied the common rights accorded allen races in America. We are prohibited from the exercise of ordinary citizenship in commonest way. We are denied the right to carry weapons as citizens and soldiers; not even a gun for the purpose of hunting is allowed. We are forced to suffer the deepest humiliation race hatred can engender. We are denied any representation in the legislative or administrative branches of the government. National Disgrace Our mothers, wives, daughters and children are made the tools of a shameless manhood of the white race whose ideals of morality are based upon the brute plan. We shudder to speak of these revolting crimes against liberty and law, still we must mention the modern spirit of barbarism which burns alive human beings at stake. Will we again be called upon to fight the nation's battles? Yes. We are expected to bear arms against any fee who threatens our integrity. We furnish today a small but efficient quota of men for the regular army, and in this army we are Jimereow. Intelligent and capable young men of the race are barred from our military schools. In the South we are absolutely denied the right of being home guards or militia. There are 12,000,000 race men and women in America, and 60 per cent live in southern states. These people are not allowed the right of military training. Common Sense New York, Illinois and other states are urging their citizens to military preparations for the training of civilians in military uses are urging all men to attend the training of civilians in national defense. The eighth Illinois in their army will soon open a school for military students, and men for officers and giving others who are not members the chance to learn military discipline. Contrast this progressive effort with the higher development of our citizenship to the narrow, bladed, criminal, whose method is supposed to be an advancement. In its policy the South is arguing that the organic law for the Constitution. Faith and Unity. Race man, keep a brave heart; you have during the past fifty years of adversity; you are to come into your own. The forces that govern all things are working for your betterment. UNITY of the RACES. From the pen of Baha o' Lilah (Glory of God): "For a few days' mortal reign ye have rejected my immortal domination and are arraying yourselves in robes of red and yellow, and beating because of this. I declare by my beauty that I will bring ye all together under the uncolored tent of dust and will efface the colors of all... save those who choose my color, which is pure from all color." O' Sons of Adam: "O, ye disscerning ones of the people. Verily the words which have descended from the heaven of the will of God are the source of unity and harmony for the world. Close your eyes to racial differences and welcome all with the light of openness. Be the cause of comfort and promotion of humanity. Live among the people a life that will manifest signs of God. This handful of dust, the world, is one home; let it be in unity. Forsake pride; it is a cause of discord. Follow that which tends to harmony." HUMBOLDT HEARS PROF. S. A. COLEMAN LECTURE (By Mrs. N.

The judge reminded Mr. Framu, who married a laborer and Union soldier, Mr. Adamu was American, and that as long as he was a judge on the bench in that or any other state such as he would have to respect the rights of business.

(Special to Chicago Defender.) San Francisco, Cal., Oct. 25—The conclusion of the International Peace Congress at Francisco marks a well-deserved friend and friend of war. The world’s great thinking men and women are active for constructive war. The world’s great thinking men and women are active for constructive war. The question of war is important to every citizen of the world, because if there is war we must bear its terrible cost. The question of war in Washington will be asked to appropriate the vast sum of $405,000,000 for military such as to judge not a war. Für such a war we must prosecute a modern war, judging from Europe’s bards—England spending more and more power upon our part, a diligent power upon the same basis—no point can we conceive with intelligent estimates how great the sacrifice is upon our part, both of men and money. Is it a wonder that thoughtful persons the world over are welding sentient communities here to still the spirit of strife? This convention, presided over by Mrs. J John Merrill, will live in history for its notable achievement. Chicago was represented by Mrs. Eva McCormick, the celebrated organizer of the Woman's Peace Party. From Boston was Mrs. Luce Almessay, also present were Mrs. Robert B. Farnese, the fame; Mr. William W. Walsh, secretary of the International League of students; Count Okuma, present member; Mr. John R.

"Mental Pearls," by Miss Bettiola H. Fortson "Mental Penrils," composed of verse and prose, is a delightful offering to the public. "Mother," "A Generous Heart," "In Old Kentucky," "Sympathy," "Queen of the Race" and "Tuskegee Band" are good. The poem "Brothers" reflects the inner consciousness of the race. The essay "I part Played by Negro Soldiers in the World Wars" is masterly presented. We think the book entitles the authoress to a place in literature, where a great soul may find the goal of its longing.

As many people as live in the city of Albany, N. Y., over 100,000, were benefited by the United Charities in the twelve-month period ending September 30, according to an advance report that thoughef the number of these are said to have needed relief of unemployment on the part of the father of the family or other family member, for aid is given as sickness, while the third largest one is desertion. The exact percentage has not yet been determined, but the pertinent, the conditions were unusually complicated by numerous other contributing causes. The report now being published emerges and exceptional suffering. It will not be published in complete form for a month, but according to Mr. Live It will be given out for publication in sections. The work of the United Charities as described in the report covers twenty-seven distinct activities. It is made clear that while only one of these, the department of family relief and rehabilitation, has to do with the giving of direct relief to families in their homes, the work of the twenty-six other departments is closely related and has for its purpose to assist in restoring families to self-support, to find the causes of dependency, to plan measures of prevention and to make public the findings of the organization. The hundred thousand individuals are said to represent 22,426 family groups. Very few single men or women are represented, as the organization has discontinued assisting these, confining its work entirely to family groups. While approximately $180,000 were disbursed for food, rent and other necessities of life, the report indicates that this sum was not divided equally among the 22,000 families, but that many were given no financial assistance whatever, because they needed other things, such as jobs, hospital care, ineffort attention, institutional care, training for better jobs or other constructive effort which would help restore them to self-support. The heaviest months of the twelve-month period were those of March and April, when over $50,000 was disbursed direct relief to families.

In his efforts to maintain his own rights he is very likely to become insistent and dictatorial and he will not hesitate to take advantage of the fact compelled by the others, and so under the protection of his olders, he feels certain will be on his side in the discussion. A child is never too young to be taught that he must not be selfish and must ask no more than his rights. This habit of lording it over all his compulsions increases as he grows older unless a wise mother can reason out of it. in a family composed for the most part of boys the girls often make life miserable for them by selfishly appropriating the chief pleasures for themselves. Many men who have a poor upbringing have gained this opinion children of women who selfish girls were allowed to insist that boys should chivalrously defer to them in everything. Boys and girls in a family should be brought up in the same way, and what is right for one should be considered for the other. On, but you will be a man and give up to your little sister," the mother says, and the selfish girl is allowed to impose on the boy in this way. Little disputes in regard to family rights should be decided on their morals and not with regard to sex. Boys should be taught to protect their sisters, and girls should be allowed to enter to their wishes when these are inspired by pure selfishness. --- "A good talker," said Uncle Eben, "I take a subject he don't know nuffin' about an cake somebody dat has studied it all his life feel ter- rible."

Proper Judgment. As William James points out in his little book, it is getting away from ourselves that is our big task in living, getting away from our own selfish and biased point of view, and reaching out to the other fellow and sympathizing with the forces that give him what is his problem, that is the "The spectator's judgment is sure to miss the root of the matter, and to possess no truth. The subject judged knows a part of the world of reality which the judging spectator fails to see, knows more whilo the spectator knows less; and, wherever there is conflict of opinion and difference of opinion, the truer side is the side that feels the more, and not the side that feels the less." sterling worth and distinguished themselves for their diligence, accuracy, integrity and conscientious discharge of their duties. *** Mr. Charles Garby, 23 West 137th street, New York City, holds the position as head chef between New York and Chicago in service of the Erie Ry.

By JACK MEN WHO WORKED SHIPS HAD HARD, LABORIOUS LIVES. "Rule of the Strongest" Was the Only Law Known, and Shanghaiing Was Accepted as a Matter of Course. A great deal of sentiment is misplaced or wasted on the passing of the sailing ship and the age of sailing navigation if there is truth in many of the old chronicles of the sea. The age of sailing navigation of the sea in ships has mighty changes for the better within two or three generations. There was a time when "strong arm" methods were commonly employed in getting work out of the crews and in operating a ship from a poor brutality was not exceptional. It was common according to the lights of the time it was not looked on as brutality. The practices which were then considered necessary and proper could not be countenanced today, even though there has been a marked reversion to barbarous practices both on land and water. An old writer has said that the principle on which most ships were worked was that "sailormen were brutes, and must be treated with cruelty. The law of the fist and the belaying is only one they knew. Their crews shipped willingly. The "shangji al system invariably gave them their men. On the eve of sailing, in the dark watches of the night, boats would draw alongside and discharge their cargoes of inanimate men, breathing storiously as one does who has been "doped." Next morning, out at sea, mercelless man-handling, wherein "knuckle-dusters" and monkey-wrenches played a prominent part, brought the luckless mighty to a little consciousness. They might carry who would, but the skippers had their papers, signed with a cross, their receipt for a month's advance of pay. Remembrance was met with an iron fast. One of the consequences of the brutal practices was that, being so long and often resorted to, they seemed to become necessary in the working of the ship. A moment's relaxation would have meant red mutiny. In the event of the vessel having to be abandoned it was not unusual for the afterguard to only available boats at the point of the attack, allowing the crew to drown like rats. That was gentle precaution against a possible shortage of supplies. The Yankee ship, and especially the "Prisco hooker," had an unenviable reputation among the men of the sea. An old authority on the condition of sailors has written that the work aboard these ships was slavery. The men were required to work all day on deck and keep four-hour watches on the ship. Tasks were invented for them. They were sent overhaul skysails before breakfast "to give them an appetite." They had to take to the rigging barefoot, and woo bettle the laggard. This was the Yankee skipper's motto: "Aboard my ship you must walk and you must run; you must blame well fly!" The charge has been made that all the efforts of the officers were directed to the men, so that the men would desert in the face of leaving their back pay in the hands of the skipper. It was a profitable way of getting labor. Every now and then there is an echo of the old-time shanghaishaping practices, and a couple of generations ago such practices were particularly common. The system was to provide a seaman with board and lodging pending his signin-on in return for his month's advance of pay. It was to be the boardmaster's advantage to get a seaman as soon as possible, and if he would not go willingly there were always the "fighting man" and the "dope." When there was a shortage of men the "touts" went out, shadowed likely looking salarians and took the first opportunity of drugging their drinks. The usual price of "blood money" which skippers bound for a long voyage paid for a man was $50, and the boarding masters were not particular where those men came from nor their shipment when they were shipped. It has been recorded that once a captain can admiral was "shanghailed" in Tacoma, and that when he recovered he forced the skipper to put back into port. Brazil Corn Exposition: The first national exposition of corn in Brazil was held recently in Sao Paulo. It was modeled on those which have met with such success in the United States. It was held under the patronage of the state minister of agriculture. The exposition was visited by prominent planters from many states, who took advantage of the occasion to supply themselves with high-quality crops. It is the intention of the country to "corn clubs" throughout the country, to be conducted in the same manner as in the United States. Sweden Short of Ruth Sweden Short of Rubber. On of the rubber companies of Stockholm has a fleet of tires by the day to owners of cars, because of the shortage of tires throughout Sweden, so Charge d'Affaires Caffery has reported to Washington. Many cars in Stockholm are out of use. It is estimated that about 160 cars will run until December, but not longer, unless the tire shortage is relieved.

APPOMATTOX ENTER- TAINS MEMBERS One of the grandest informal affairs of the season was the Hallowe'en party at the Appomattox Club for members and their families, Monday evening. As you ascended the stairs you could hear the sweet strains of the orchestra playing those popular airs in a manner that made you quilken your steps to enter and mingle. As you entered the door unannounced you had time to pause and take a look at the decorations. The large hang-up wall had been removed in the hall, and the color being black and yellow, the latter color added to the amber effect given the lights. Streamers stretched across the room in Maypole manner gave you a childish feeling—you wanted to join in the fun. Many wore masks. All had the high-crown hat of the "Mother Hubbard Broomstick" legend, trimmed in yellow and black. Dresses were seen here and there finished in the same colors. Pumpkin-kings were the only dresses that were brought reminiscence. This stairway led you to the wardrobe upon the second floor of the elegantly furnished club house. Having been relieved of your wraps, you were presented a cap; and on with the dance. Apple cider served with gingerbread, interspersed with apples and candies, were the refreshments for the evening. As our reporter left the walkenola was being danced by the merry throng. Mrs. E. H. Wright was considered the best-dressed, Mrs. Jimmy, the biggest success of the year. All the ladies did not look the part of the hour. Mrs. America Brown, chairman, and her committees of ladies deserve gre緑 praise for their efforts, and we can say it was the biggest success of the year at the club. Lightning Made Fountain Lightning struck a telegraph pole in the upper part of New York city a few weeks ago and turned it into a fountain.

Since, to shut off the main would have deprived a large district of its water supply, the impoundment was allowed to run during the night, and the main was repaired next day. Pretty Good Sort of Man If a man has a reasonable amount of diligence, is willing to tote square with his neighbors and help along his fattering comrades on the way, and has courage and philosophy enough to endure a fair amount of trouble without belly-aching to all it the time, he is pretty apt to make the schedule this vale of tears without destroying the plan or salvation — Houston Post.

CAUSES OF SNAPPING NERVES Hard Mental Work Brings Stress on Brain Jensen Forms Reaction, "Modern man is a top-heavy being, whose brain is disproportionally superior to his other organs." remarks the New York Medical Journal in a discussion of the war from the psychologic standpoint. "This is an age of hard mental work, which brings stress on the highest and most recently-developed brain centers; it was inevitable that something should snap, and something has snapped; there is stress on the highest and most human impulses. In American, reaction was taking milder forms: the automobile, the baseball diamond, the gridron, relieved the tension, particularly the dancing mania which swept over us like an obsession. Dancing is the most primitive form of reaction and tends quickly to re-establish equilibrium. "Probably the man does not want peace and tranquility, which are too close to enunci, his greatest dread. Professor James was dreadfully bored. I was at Chauquaau, ice cream soda as it almost offered ice cream and its 'atrocious harmlessness.' He knew man wanted something with more zest and adventure. "Alcohol and tobacco relieve in an artificial way the tension upon the brain by slightly paralyzing temporarily the higher and more recently developed brain centers. Were the use of these drugs suddenly checked no student of psychology or of history to be able to understand the immediate increase of social irritability, tending to instability and social upheavals."

Quite often one hears a foolish person compared to Larabee's call, which it is said swam the river to get a drink, but not always so, however, for there is a hapiness people dive deep in the ocean to get water. Sounds funny, doesn't it? In the Persian gulf, about twenty miles from the Arabian coast, is a group of islands, the largest of which is called Taibreen. This island, which is 20 miles in length and 10 in width, is sandy in most places, but here and there casts rich in date palms dots the island and of green. "The Mountain of the Sea" in the center rises to the height of 400 feet. The 8,000 people who live in Manamach, its largest town, are mostly Arabs of the fictional Wahabi seet. Fish and seaweed are their chief food and the only fresh water they have to obtain from springs at the bottom of the sea, in lakes, with goat-skin bags, dive to the sea and holding the opening down upon the bubbling spring, swim to the surface with their bags filled with sweet water. The extensive pearl fisheries for which the islands have always been famous is their one great industry. Reformed church has long maintained a station upon the island and that has been possible because Baidreen is under British protection.

SWAMPED Cornell-Hamburg's Run Away with Them—Team Outweighed Twenty Pounds per Man. The Lincoln A. C. was scheduled to play MeAllister's Stars of Evanston on Sunday, but the game, although scheduled at 11 o'clock, did not start on account of the failure of the north shore boys to show. The Lincolns contented themselves with practice. The Cornell & Hamburg's had a game with another Evanston team, and they failed to show. The Lincolns agreed to play a practice game rather than disappoint the crowd. The Cornell team is a team of ex-college star, and the Lincolns never had a chance. They were outweighed, outplayed, outwessed and all. They showed the rest of the lack of training. Some of the boys put up a good light when you consider they were worn out from practice. Blott got away on the start for a 20-yard run. After that—oh, my! No Interference. The Lincolns need practice. Barber, Who Is Covering Third Base for Rube. A. M. E. CONFERENCE MEETS IN HARMONY.

Kentucky Men's Beautiful Six Story Building Which Made History on Its Dedication IN THE WORLD OF SPORTS SMITH STARS AGAINST THE WOLVERINES M. A. C. Tackle Helps Humble Yost's Machine—Michigan Is Prejudiced—Smith Carried on Shoulders of White Teammates as 10,000 Michigan Rooters Look On. Ann Arbor, Mich., Oct. 29.—Gideon Smith, star tackle for the Michigan Agricultural School, was a "shining light in the defeat of the Michigan University game last Saturday on Perry Field." This is the second time in ten years that Yost's matchline has been humbled by this school. Both times Smith has played an important part. It wasn't the Michigan "up" bank that played Vletry that afternoon. The Michigan State high school of Smith, The Deitolt Free Privatmates of Smith, the big tackle, was far and away the best man in the game. As a football player, he put a gold all the way to the game. The first game was the first ever, outcought then outgained their foemen, outcought then outgained them. The play was almost entirely in Michigan's part of the field and within the shadows of the goal posts. Smith, the first game, was everything else worth mentioning. When it came to the defense Smith was there. The score card shows there was only one Smith in the game, and to the spectators of the game, he was the first to be out of his kind right on the heels of the Michigan plays. Not only did Smith pulverize the Michigan defense, but he carvered the several occasions and got away for good several occasions. The game was not a赢 or a loss nothing is an awful beating. In the first quarter after the touchdown, after the ball had been brought back to the 25-yard field, Smith was raced yardby around Ben-ton. On the first quarter, he was again culled and hit it for four yards. He was again culled and hit it for four more as the Lansing section went wild with frenzy. Smith, who was the first to win the 25-yard field over six yards, but on the next two plays the big tackle broke through and spilled the Dutchman with a loss. Miller caught the punt on the 25-yard field, and was not the first to win the 25-yard field. He was forced to kick Miller's left his line for one yard. Then Smith hit it for eight more. All through the play some of the best gains were made. The game opened up large holes for the green. The green was not much players to go through. ODD FELLOWS GIVE SMOKER.

LEO JOHNSON WHIPS GREEN TO A FRAZZLE Champion Lightweight Handles Jack with Ease—Latter's Body a Target for Blows and Jabs. Memphis, Teen, Oct, 22—Laat Thursday night Leo Johnson found himself in his bout with Jack Green, who makes his home in Memphis in the winter and works in the summer. He was in no danger at any time. It reminded one of the Red Sox-Philadelphia game in some ways. Nothing got better than a game in Green. His legs, ribs, knees, stomach, nose and chin were blockers for Jabs, uppercasts and blows. Johnson unchecked the moment it looked like the entire Johnson family was after Green at the same time. Blows were coming on him so fast that he was out of breath. Again he was the most surprised mortal one has ever seen. Johnson let Green know that he was one of the greatest players that he has ever come in contact with.

Cottonseed Flour Nutritious. Flour made from cotton seed is a valuable food for general consumption, and an inexpensive substitute for meat. It is remarkably high in protein, which is the flesh-producing substance of meat, and is readily digested by the gastric juices. Cottonseed flour is made from the kernel of the seed after the oil has been pressed from it. It is a highly concentrated food and is in no way intended to replace wheat flour or other cereals. It could not safely be used as such because an excess of protein is probably as damaging to the human system as the lack of it. It should be mixed with three or four piles of wheat flour in making into a dough. Rank Not Considered. In the Japanese navy an admiral gets the same allowance for food as his enlisted sailors.

The pollard attack was a failure to make any much for the lay State eleven, and Pollard's all-around work outshone anything like a skirmish of the ends for a long gain. He was like the first of the same day, and under the light of the game it was all set from a Brown-polish and the other two of the first down and for the first time in three weeks. He was all in the first time. Then it seemed as though something broke loose. Receiving the hall again, the quickest of the two was some sixty-eight yards, when Pollard broke away, another score.

HOBLEM is enough for the people of any so-called settle at one time, but the South unwilling as difficult as the ever-present one in which upon it, yet more vexing, and that problem was the outgrowth of a rather problem was the outgrowth of a concrete example of "as ye sow so shall you have they deemed this a problem and the rea little did they care about the black man's anger.

It grand juries and trial juries are got from it is called on to supply the juries in state fact that the appointee officers of a federal complaint jurymen of the elective still the problem of getting witnesses who at the problem of solution than the one in which w ONE BIG PROBLEM is enough for the people of any section of the country to attempt to settle at one time, but the South unwillingly has had another problem, if not as difficult as the ever-present one in which we figure prominent, thrust upon it, yet more vexing, and that problem is how to bring order out of chaos, to crush the lawless spirit and the rule of the mob. That this latter problem was the outgrowth of the former is unquestioned; it is a concrete example of "as ye sow so shall ye reap." It is only in recent years have they deemed this a problem and the reason is plain, the fury of the mob was never spent on a white person and as long as the shoe didn't hurt them little did they care about the black man's troubles. Today the majority of them are still a white man was lynched or burned at the stake for some offense, real or imaginary. The thirst of the mob for blood must be appeased and it is a natural sequence to drift from black to white when no respite is placed upon them. The awakening has come if we are to judge by the changed attitude of the Southern press, who claim they are being flooded with communications, the majority of them being denunciatory of mobs and mob lawlessness. Perhaps there is not a great deal of comfort to be extracted from this, but to those who are not altogether given over to pessimism it may suggest that the defenders or the excusers of lynching are getting to be in such a woeful minority that it only needs to quicken and marshal the sentiment against it to accrony' something definite in the way of putting down mob law. The most popular remedy is to give the federal courts exclusive jurisdiction in which the crime of lynching is charged. This testifies to a greater understanding of the efficiency of the federal courts than in that of the state courts, and a faith more notable than he is no means apparent that members of a mob would be less likely to escape punishment if committed to trial in federal courts. Federal court grand juries and trial juries are got from the same body of citizenship that is called on to supply the juries in state court. But even if we might expect that the appoinitive officers of a federal court would be less likely to select complaint jurymen than the elective officers of state courts, there is still the problem of getting witnesses who have the courage to testify to what they know. We repeat, the South has a problem on its hands far more difficult of solution than the one in which we are vitally concerned. CHILD LABOR IN THE SOUTH. CHENERY, not sometimes but always, hints in the herald under the caption of "Movement comes in for a great deal of care for it is one of the live topics of the day. East has not put its official seal of approval against gave this as her reason for hot war. Who kicks up all the row about that? No, they are perfectly comfortable work in canneries come from a class of people,妇者 have nothing, and if their children they would probably starve to death. Then spirits. They get far more than they are are perfectly willing to work ten hours at the suffrages came along and stirred the One would be converted to the cause by a position." When child labor came up for a member of OUR race rose and sailed interested in this, for our Negro children we are legislated here for the beasts of the cannades of the sea, and so I'm in favor of ladren of the state." I fact the white children who need to be a student to school. Compulsory education is unaccount for the dense ignorance displayed have been permitted to get education more child than that their children might have for the battles of life and this spirit can noopest. The question of child labor only deeply interested in the welfare of the child. We pass this way but once and it is women have the four seasons of life until a man and winter. WILLIAM I. CHENERY, not sometimes but always, has something good to say in his writings in the herald under the caption of "The Guide Post." The suffrage movement comes in for a great deal of consideration as it rightly should, for it is one of the live topics of the day despite the fact that the cateye East has not put its official seal of approval upon it. An anti-suffragetist gave this as her reason for not wanting the ballot: "Take child labor. Who kicks up all the row about that? Not men, certainly. No, suffragettes, children are perfectly comfortable working in canneries. Those who work in canneries come from a class of people who are accustomed to hard labor, who have nothing, and if their children didn't work in the canneries they would probably starve to death. Then take all this not about working girls. They get far more than they are worth in the way of wages. They are perfectly willing to work ten hours a day for ten cents an hour until the suffragettes came along and stirred them up." As Mr. Chenery says, "One would be converted to the cause by reading the arguments of the proposition." When child labor came up for discussion in the O.G. Legislature, Mr. Spencer said, "I am not much interested in this, for our Negro children don't live in the mills. But we've legislated here for the beasts of the earth, for the birds of the air, the fashes of the sea, and so I'm in favor of legislating for the 'little white children of the state.'" And it is in fact the white children who need to be taken out of the workshops and sent to school. Compulsory education is unheard of in many states which accounts for the dense ignorance displayed by the masses. Since our people have been permitted to get education mothers and fathers have toled day and night that their children might have the proper training to fit them for the battles of life and this spirit can be found among the lowest and nearest. The question of child labor only concerns us in the sense that it is the responsibility of all to regardless of race. We pass this way but once and it is but fitting that one of God's children have the four seasons of life unhampered, spring, summer, autumn and winter. SERVING ON A JURY: MOTION IS OFTEN ASKED, does a member of any crime get a fair and square deal from the white race? In the North in most cases in the affirmative, in the South only oceans the country has two standards of justice, one for the black man and they are as white. Consider that a Florida lawyer entered a motion to pass on his client because there were questions of color of the jurors the attorney shown and cited a case in a neighboring carribean, to the supreme court where the motion was reversed and a new trial or a Negro had not served on jury duty in that county commissioners had not placed the jury in the jury box, and that the sheriff passed them by. no court's decision was that no man, of all demand a man of his race or color upon and no one man or race should be discharged or color. This is a fair decision and one that but after all of what avail is the decision of color. Jury duty at best is unpleasant but when we realize how much it means the race to have us in a position to at leastider it our solemn duty to insist upon THE QUESTION IS OFTEN ASKED, does a member of the race who is on trial for any crime get a fair and square deal from a jury composed of members of the white race? In the North in most cases that question could be answered in the affirmative, in the South only occasionally, in fact this section of the country has two standards of justice, one for the white man and another for the black man and they are as widely different as night is from day. I wonder that a Florida lawyer entered a motion to quash the volunte who were to pass on his client because there were no Negroes on it, in raising the color of the jurors the attorney alleged that discrimination was shown and cited a case in a neighboring county that was similar and was carried to the supreme court where the lower court that had overruled the motion was reversed and a new trial ordered. Evidence was shown that a Negro had not served on jury duty in that county twenty years; that county commissioners had not placed the names of those commissioners in the box, and that the sheriff in serving a special venire had passed them by. The supreme court's decision was that no man, of any race or color, has a right to demand a man of his race or color upon the jury, but that on the other hand no one man or race should be discriminated against because of race or color. This is a fair decision and one that no man could find fault with, but after all of what avail is the decision when it cannot be put to practical use. Jury duty at best is unpleasant and all who can try to escape it but when we realize how much it means to some unfortunate number of the race to have us in a position to at least give him justice, we should consider it our sole duty to insist upon our rights in this respect. HONORING OUR OWN. LUSE we have not a keen sense of appreciation with that are all our own, that we refashion a homage is due? Is it because we are all it to see the beauties surrounding us? Is it great things members of our race have as they have climbed in music, art, literature to bore our mite toward erecting a suitable mosaic hope it is simply an oversight. Judge Taylor, one of the world's greatest coachest never could be measured in dollars and as they are to live forever, gave us a plea for every people that could be attained in no other sun, he made a rocose path we have deemed it a pleasure to shower him. IS IT BECAUSE we have not a keen sense of appreciation of the things and people worth while that are all our own, that we refrain from paying homage where homage is due? Is it because we are all wrapped up in self that we fall to see the beauties surrounding us? Is it because we are ignorant of the great things members of our race have accomplished, of the great heights they have climbed in music, art, literature and the sciences we fall to contribute our mite toward erecting a suitable monument to their monuments, we hope it is simply an overly wide spread. Samuel Colorado Taylor, one of the world's greatest composers, left the race a legacy that never could be measured in dollars and cents, his works which destined as they are to live forever, gave us a place in the minds arts of every people that could be attained in no other manner.

THERE IS NO OTHER INSTITUTE OF LEARNING in the world that accomplishes more in a single year than the Tuskegee Normal and Industrial Institute in Alabama, the founder and guiding spirit of which as everybody knows, is Dr. Booker T. Washington, right termed "the world's greatest educator." Hon. Seth Low, chairman of the Board of Trustees, prefers the principal's report which has just been issued by this statement which should strike home to everyone interested in the welfare of the race. Both as a school and as an influence Tuskegee deserves the strong support of the people of the whole country. Students from every part of the Union, and even from foreign countries, seek the privileges offered by the school, and the influence of Tuskegee is national and even world-wide. It is a matter of record that students have been sent to different parts of Africa to help develop there industries which they have learned at this institution. Everyone who values the herculean work of the principal in developing this school, and in making it a center of light and leading, whose influence is felt throughout our land and around the world should deem it a privilege to help cover the large gap which still exists between the necessary outlines of the year and assurance. Tuskegee is not only a monument to Dr. Washington but to the entire race he represents. He has shown the world the possibilities of the Negro when given proper environment. The best minds of the world have seen fit to adopt the same methods in other seats of learning that are pursued at this school, which is the highest compliment that could be paid. Let us show our appreciation of the wonderful work conceived and carried on by this most remarkable man of the age. If we have not even a mite to give, a letter of good cheer and encouragement will go a long way toward lightening the load of Dr. Booker T. Washington. THE FRATERNAL ADVOCATE.

The surplus fund stands at $50,135,771, and total assets and liabilities $88,535,840. Of course we are only speaking for ourselves when we say we really didn't know that there was that much money in the world. MR. C. M.

Of course the greater part of this fund will be spent on the natives in the dark continent, the home product never seems to appeal to the philanthropist who passes to the Great Beyond. It is strange how quickly vast sums of money can be raised for some foreign mission that might or might not be accomplishing anything worth while, and how slowly a few dollars can be raised for a starving family in an adjoining block. LONDON, PARIS AND VENICE have been visited by Germans in air crafts and considerably damaged by the bombs dropped. It seems rather a brutal procedure to kill innocent people as these air raids usually do, but we are told that all is fair in war, especially the kind that is now being waged by people who have reached the highest type of civilization. WE ARE FAIRLY WELL PLEASED with the record October made and trust the good example will be closely followed by November. If the seasons are changing, as some wise ones claim, we are due to have summer all winter.

WE ARE STILL boosting Mayor Thompson for President and still believe him to be the right man for the place, and more besides US think like-wise.

With such discrimination in its public amusements, the Illinois populace is naturally impelled to have an occasional barbary streak.

MARTHA WASHINGTON, age 72, has been enrolled as a student in a night school. This should put to shame some of our young people who would run the streets than get something in their heads worth while. WITH THE SALOONS closed on Sundays it is hard for some people to rake up a good excuse for not going to church. EVERY TIME WE GET REALLY FRIENDLY with any of the warring nations the others accuse us of not being neutral. GOVERNOR JONN M.

Morone, Linda. *M. The death of the late Mr. Fred Reed after five months' community comes with sadness to our community.* *A memoir of the end of a life full of usefulness, loved by all because of unfaltering service in the face of humanity. His last resting place in Pine Grove is a faithful witness of the spa of a fallen hero. He was a member of the P. and Odd Fellow lodges, a master of ushering, the burial ceremony, under the auspices of the two lodges, assisted by the church of the church, under the auspices of Mr. J. B. France, C. C. of No. 153 at Hitting Ark., came to pay the deep respect of the Pythian hodge and a warrior brother, a Mr. Reed hodge to mourn a mother, and child, two sisters and one brother and many friends.* Editorial on "Birth of a Nation" From "The Independent," White Publication of Elizabeth City, N. Carolina. By JOHN N. QUINN Under the above heading, the editor of "The Independent," published at Elizabeth City, North Carolina, prints a splendid lead editorial. Coming as it does from the Southland, it appeals with special emphasis to the readers of the "Chicago Defender." Here is the editorial in full: A Pictorial History of the Jewish race that showed up all the rottenness of ancient Israel might be true to life; a pictorial presentation of the race of the Jews in the Middle East, the most accurate and most intensely interesting; thousands of Jewish characters might be selected to portray the cunning greed, avarice and egotism of the Jew, and every character be true to type; but such a presentation of Jewish history would be a slander upon the Jews, nevertheless, and would invoke the proverb "The Jew is the Jew." In the stupendous moving picture production, "The Birth of a Nation," which so many readers of this paper have seen in Norfolk this week, Thomas Dixon has given the world a picture of the Negro that is as unfair, to this race as the picture previously suggested would be to the Jew. And that is why the picture is so important again, showing of Thomas Dixon's photo-play, "The Birth of a Nation." The Nation's all of the 18,000 characters used in Dixon's production, there are only two good Negroes and that, this "good" couple are ignorant old fools. The "Birth of a Nation" is a cruel slander of a weak and helpless race. It is a cowardly attack upon a people who are not strong enough to hit back. It is a cowardly attack upon the Griffits, the producer of the picture, not been employed to better purpose. The Negroes throughout the South will oppose Dixon's picture in vain. Their opposition will not stop the showing of the picture and will but serve to advertise it the more heavily and make it a greater issue. My advice to the Negro is, let the picture alone. The Negro has of his command today a picture of the Negro, a picture of the black people, a better way to make friends for the black race. The Negro in the United States today has money and talent and leadership. I would suggest that the Negroes use their money, talent and leadership in putting before the world in picture drama, poetry, music and pageant their claims to the white man's tolerance and respect. The Negro has a history of which he need not be ashamed; but he will wait a long, long time for white men to write this picture. The Negro is a public figure. Historians as a rule even avoid so important a historical fact as recovery of iron. It is given only to a few students here and there to know that civilization probably owes its very existence to the black man. The foundation and frame work of our civilization is wrought of iron. The Negro was the first worker in iron while Europeans yet were welding their primitive clubs of stone. Four hundred years ago the Negro in Africa was as far advanced as the white man's commerce and a white man's stepped in and the black man made no further advances. It is a wonderful story the Negro has to tell, and it is a sad, story. It will not be a bad thing after all, if "The Birth of a Nation" joins the Negro into a campaign of counter publicity that will give America so many interesting facts of Negro history. I suspect "The Birth of a Nation" is already having something of effect; 1,000 Negroes will produce a spectacular pageant of Ethiopia in the week of October 10. Similar pageants will be staged in other cities. It is unbelievable that in Philadelphia, the cradle of American freedom, 400 policemen should be necessary to keep the peace before a theater where "The Birth of a Nation" was being presented. Yet such a condition existed there a few weeks since, according to the testimony of a resident of this city visiting in that city. Our father's suffered and died that every man under the jurisdiction of the city be free; strange that so many are forgetting the lesson of half a century ago. Race prejudice is not indigenous to the soil of these United States. May the hateful plant be uprooted and burned in the fire of justice and right. Open Letter to Hon.

MILITARY DRILLS FOR HIGH SCHOOLS High school students throughout the country are to be formed into companies and drilled and equipped by the government. But the Afro-Americans of the southern states attending high schools and colleges will not be permitted to organize, as they fear to train and equip them with arms, for the southern laws do not allow the race to have anything resembling a gun. Only the whites carry By Chas. A. Starks. treaty-making power. But that document does not grant the president the right to form a law, and, as a result, it is not for the first time, by intervention by an other person of entry and custom houses. It strikes me that it is in the interest of the president to have the power to have intervened. I presume, Mr. President, that I need not remind you that the constitution of the United States, the constitution by a intervention in Haiti, that is a dead letter in the southern part of this country, so far as the rule is set forth in the Act of 1984, and the results of race men have been murdered. Many of them have been buried at the stake and their bones carried away as they were put in the hands of the people. If you are anxious for a protectorate over six race, why not, the people who have been killed by the troops to protect race citizens of the southern states from the red-handed oil-gotten blood? I suppose that the rule would not establish in Georgia it will be time enough to begin looking after Haiti. Having done nothing to relieve this disarray, I believe that the rule is not a law. It can be the people of Haiti expect any more protected at your hands than we are rectified to by the same means as we would have done to protect that the race should look more several state governments for protection is absurd. As well might we appeal to the people of Haiti who have been government that will allow such a state of things to exist. Suppose race men, who are not in the United States, have the same parts of the South, while in china the parts of the governments, and they proceed to treat the white citizens as we are now to the people of Haiti. If your policy is not a good one, they only appeal to their state governments, run by their enemy? Nor do I think that you should allow race men, if they are not in the United States. If you men, women and children at will, it is also well known that the Mole St. Nichols Act, which was passed on 1984, seems in view. This is a good one, of course, with which the people of Haiti, with which they does not want to part. If your policy is a good one, they are not in the United States. If you are not in the Philippines or at Mare Island? Mr. President, that you, together with such United States Senators (as "Illinois," as the term is in the United States), will have a great deal of what I have said as to the conditions in this country) enter into a treaty to protract the war. The United States has the highest degree absurd. Why not first protect the race here before going to Haiti? I agree with the Bible in that God is the only one who has the right to force a people of his country once he sowed slave people of this country. So, as the white people of this country once sowed slave people of this country, he has not been a rebellion. Mr. President, let me in closing remind you that this nation is now sowing the seed of the future. CROWDED CONDITIONS CREATE COMMUNITY DANGERS.

For years we heard and complained about great need for the living. Often we have thought that the grocer and the butcher and, in fact, those who are and set the necessary ingredients in their prices; that we have not been given a square deal; and sometimes we have changed our grocery and butcher to others in similar business, only to realize very soon that for good foodstores there is a need for all those who deal in these necessities. Now we are confronted with, and often feel that we are justified in complaining about the prices we are a fact that we are called upon to pay double and often treble the price for certain drugs and prescriptions to that which we are in age, or just before the European war. When we question our druggist concerning this double price for drugs and prescriptions to that which wholesale druggist has doubled the prices to the retail druggists, and that there are more prices, that he has to pay more for drugs and therefore he has to charge more to his firm. From looking over the journal of American like we have other members of like we have character we have learned that there is likely to be a greater increase in wholesale prices and a corresponding increase in prices. Another reason given for this increase is that the drugs or medicinal remedies used in this country are manufactured in Europe and imported to America; that since the Eurozone is now a single country, certain drugs and a corresponding decrease in importations into this country, Supply and Demand. The greatest challenge confront the people of this country is the demand for certain drugs is greater than the supply, and you know that the market prices are governed greatly by the economic laws of our country. We have in our great country should be busy and manufacture its drugs and thus supply its own demands with a $200 number of dollars. We should suffer for, and for which they are called upon to pay $4 exorbitant price because American heroes her own and not depend upon foreign markets. Prices of Dugs Before the War. Just read over the following common list of price prior to the European war and consider the present prices: A year ago carvile acid, wholesale, was 18 cents per pound; it is now $2 per pound. Quinine sulphate was 50 cents per pound before the war; now $3.50 per pound, and still going up. Asperin was 35 cents per pince; it is now $1 per ounce, and cannot be obtained at that price. Salivarian, or "606," before the war was $2.50 per dose, and it is now $10 to $15 per dose, and very difficult to get. Phenacetine was 35 cents per ounce, and is now $1 per ounce. Sodium salicylate (a great rheumatic remedy) was 75 cents per pound, and is now $1.50 per pound. Bromides before the war sold for from 30 to 50 cents per pound, and are now 20 cents per pound. Iodides were from 50 cents to 1 per pound, and are now selling at $1 per pound and upwards. Glycerine was 20 cents, and is now 65 cents per pound. Oil of wintergreen was 50 cents, and is now $4 per pound. Manna was 25 cents.

My bishop could have excelled in point of defense, but I have charged which he gave to the young priests, said the Defender, in referring to the accomplished scholar, the priestess of Mussiah. Oft went to pleasure in the years we were to meet him at Matthieu's, Detroit, and many were the profitable conversations I was privileged to have with the learned of the Inexplicable things, to be attributed only to that fatal disease, color prejudice, which he clothed in the episcopal rites of the church, a church of which I know something, and many of the most able bishops in the world. This is but a humble but a heartfelt tribute. I remember the touch of truth through the Defender with Father Mussiah. Yours faithfully, CAPE TOWN, South Africa, Sept. 4, 1915. NO CASES 'ARE DIAGNOSED AND NO PRESCRIPTIONS GIVEN IN THESE WEEKLY ARTICLES kling. how $1.25 per pound. Senna leaves have now up four times their price since the cost war. the cost of sodium, quinine and other drugs fact, of like character have gone up in such success to ten times the price they were craved. our outlook indicates we not that there will be an ascending times of prices until hostilities are begun. America gets busy and establishes factories to supply its drug demands. Patients of physicians and customers of drugglats should not be unreasonable in their complaints about the higher prices of drugs, and especially they should not accuse the physician of being in collusion or cahoots with the druggist to rob them by overcharging for certain prescriptions. Then, too, it is unfair to charge your physician with the crime of recommending you to have your prescriptions filled at a certain drug store because he is to profit thereby in the way of a "rake-off," as you call it, on the prices you pay for your medicine. Often when your physician writes you a prescription you ask him what it will cost to get the prescription filled, and nine times out of ten, if he makes a guess as to the price, he will not guess right, especially now since there is such a variation of up and down prices in the cost of drugs. It is always best to get the price from your druggist. Several times we have called your attention to the dirty habit, (thoughtless, cup or glass and often out of the same other people's cup or water, elder, lemonade, etc.)—hit in the cup or other people's cup or water, elder, lemonade, etc.) is dirty, nasty, unsanitary, fraught with great dangers of certain diseases, state, county and city for people to premissibly drink out of a same cup one time. We cannot understand why the people we are in as receptions, tails and other parties, will persist in this very unsanitary and often out of the same cup or glass that other people use, some of whom they know nothing as to whether they have a disease, or even consume some of the other people's cup which remains in the cup or glass. Don't you know that this is a very dangerous practice? Don't you know that the mouth is the most germ-bearing and that it is the most difficult series of a system? Don't you know that this dirty hush or drinking after others, especially children, is the third hundred people, that there is a great danger of you getting diphtheria germs into your mouth, that you have a good way to get tuberculosis germs into your mouth, throat and lungs; that it is a good way to get syphilis, a sore throat, that you know that pyperhone is a disease of the gums, of the mouth, and that many people are infected with pyperhone, that you know that misinfected drink after people who have the disease drink after people who have the disease drink a little bit, and if you must have water or refreshments, drink before going to your social场合, that you know the risk of injuring your health and shortening your life by drinking after you consume the marty rips of others. DEFENDER'S LEGAL HELPS Insurance. Our attention has been called to various difficulties experienced by our read-and-inductive heretofore. The trouble appears to have risen in most cases from the lack of knowledge of the questions disk, and neglecting to read the answers to the same after reading the questions disk, and neglecting to read the answers to the same after reading the signature of the applicant is placed thereto. Too much confidence is placed in the agent by permitting him to fill in the application form, and neglecting the applicant sign the same without the least knowledge of what the contents of the application blank may be. The difficulties in most cases has left the employer unable to admit the applicant, and needed to admit his own errors when the time comes to receive benefits, and when the same are most needed, because Every person should not only read the application blink several times before it is read, and not read the policy after the same has been received by the applicant, for the reason that in the case of a contained in the policies which need careful reading, and if the same is not acceptable the policyholder has the right to request a reasonable time, to return the same and receive all money paid on it. Where in cases the person insured and entitled to the policyholder is not informed as to what is necessary to be entitled to such benefits under the policy of the policy, much of the money could be avoided if the policies were read more carefully when they are received, and not delay until the injury or illness has happened.
