The feature will be part of an excellent bill to be presented at the States on Monday, June 26, one day only. Don't miss this. Sheldon Brooks and Clarence Dawen, considered the Race's best team in vaudeville at the present time, opened on Saturday night at the Chicago office according to reports, cleaned up as usual. They are booked over the entire Fantasies time, their tour ending in Kansas City the week of Oct. 19, after a visit to Chicago for a week stand at the Grand. "The Overcrowd," a Mutual masterpiece, with Rhea Mitchell, William Novelov and a noted cast of film players, will be presented on one day only, Saturday, June 24, beginning with the regular 3 o'clock matinee. It comes on a special permit, and three new cast members are admitted. A short symphonic follows: Maurice Nutton, the black sheep shepherd, theft through infatuation for a designing woman. He was cast off by his father when he was 16, and she theft through infatuation for prison. On his release he returned to the city of his boyhood, and, driven by pure loneliness, drops into a notorious dance hall. He meets Bella, a girl he met in the city, and is seated at a table with her tells her his story. The girl takes an interest in him and she needs a friend. A friendship springs up between them, and she tells how she has the natural ability to be an employer and is forced to take to the streets to earn her experience. The couple, attracted by their similar misfortunes, decide to forget the past and start life Maurice goes to live with Belle at her apartment and gets some a job as a day laborer. The girl keeps her house for him and the girl runs to a position of authority, to the meantime his father, who has forgiven his son's early indulgence, on the basis of the father's father gets word where Maurice is living and goes to see him and persuade him to return home and give up the gift he refuses to the girls, hopefully they think that she wishes to return to the old life. The father denounces Belle, but Maurice defends her and says that he will make sure she is not a guest. The regeneration complete, they marry, and Maurice receives the "occident" as a wedding gift, and she displays wonderful ability. Her splendid dramatic qualities are brought into full play, and she has never appeared to such excellent advantage as she does in "The Over- Much joy was felt when the Man With the Bag deposited the following missive on our self-acting roll-top desk, first thing on Monday morn: Dear Friend Tony—This is about the twentieth time I have written The Defender and as yet I have received no reply. I am always glad to get the World's Greatest Weekly and I always recommend it to my friends, especially the Race boys who are old-timeçons. I know to London the 1903 with Williams & Walkers in Dalhoney company, and remained in England until 1905. Then I went to Germany with what is known as the Black Diamond Quartet, and have been with them ever since. We were in London on 1911 and played the Pьa Dagees two weeks, and the Orpheum two weeks, and the Majestic at Allwaukee a week. We opened the way for the Race at the Partola Louvre, San Francisco along the first to work it. We stayed there 16 weeks. Remember me to Tom and Mary. I was on Day 7.

WASHINGTON NEWS S. H. Dudley, heartening again to the irresistible call of the footlights, leaves this week for Chicago, to take a leading part in the revue that Dave Marlon in putting on at the Columbia theater. A July salary was one of the strong arguments that influenced "Dud" to temporarily set aside the drama—but he'll be back soon. In the meantime, Meier Levy, the hustling young advertiser, will be recalled from New York to step into Mr. Dudley's shoes as resident manager for the Quality Amusement Company. Manager William Hodgkins, at Dudley's, is presenting this week two teams of /exceptional strength—White and Bradford and Smith and Mills. The policy of this popular house hereafter will be to offer a complete change of bill twice in the week, alternating performances with the Blue House by a special arrangement with the Dudley booking enterprise. Mr. Hodgkins is a glittering success as a manager, crowded houses mighty being the rule. Charles Ost is rendering valuable assistance as stage director. The Waltons, Earl and Lulu, musical trio from New York, are talented mezzo-soprano, are touring New York state with Dumbar's "Tennessee" ensemble, and the company has contracts covering the next two years, and if at that time the war in Iraq becomes more aggressive to Europe.

The Mid-City theater has been signed as manager. This is the first invitation of this great thoroughfare that has come on the scene too early to succeed in this section and long ago gave up the ghost. The Mid-City will be a "no go" zone. The theater will be booked there by the Dudley agency as soon as Manager Mason complements it. Negotiations are pending that may result in the passing of the Alamo theater to Race management. This is a cozy place to watch the O street market, and would pay as a house for Race patron's tickets. The theater were at the St. Louis theater in Baltimore last week, headed for Washington. They are immensely popular here. The office attractions, the Whitman Sisters, are at the Foraker theater, west side, and are filling the big alldome nightly. The company complements the Whitman, Walter Maxoy, Samuel Reed, Tommy Hawkins and Anron Palmer. The Whitmans are taking their headquarters on the northwest, opposite the Mid-City theater. STREETS THE GRAND The Manicure Girls is the name of an excellent musical comedy which opened in May of the best for the first half, by the Billy King Company, which is saying much. There is a great deal of interest in the big aggregation of the distributed among the cast and is very capable-handed. The musical numbers are right up to the high standard which the musical aggregation amuses. The numbering is amusing, an opening chorus from the pens of Director-Overstreet and Billy King; Dancer-Burroughs-Hobson; Burroughs-Hobson; Shades of Night by Gertrude-Sounders; Look at Me At Now, by Georgia Kelly; a playful met-tempo; You've Worked On Me For Fun; the ammy; Time, by Billy King; and the closing ensemble, Sweetheart, Good Bye, another directress's comissions, the vaudeville of The Two Lows in a kariet display.

The bill was an excellent one from start to finish. THE MONOGRAM An excellent bill drew full houses here on Monday night. It consisted of Mooro & Brown in a new net. This team just worked with the other two weeks with the Siriey Bailey Company, Charles Anderson, the vocalist and yoller in a classical repertoire of new songs, and the sterling star of the show, the new routine of exclamation strength.

We believe Alderman Do Priest is doing his full duty in his efforts to secure the passage of the ordinance in question. We believe in the spirit of the Tribune editorial in the same issue, entitled "Poisoned Questions," in which appears the following: "Mr. Hughes was most admirably right in refusing to insult a large number of good Americans. For a man to request election to the presidency of a republic on the promise that he would eradicate and oppress any particular group of citizens because of their blood would be monstrous."

BLACKS ARE SUPERB SOLDIERS (Continued from page 1.) The most notable point of Mr. Churchill's speech was that in which he cited the example of the Northern States of the American Civil War. When the war ended, the armies were restricted to white men, but in September, 1862, the first negro regiment was raised in Louisiana, and durably the African American men were enlisted. Half of them were free negroes of the Northern states, the remainder were fugitive or released after the war, and some soon became fully equal in numbers to the white troops, particularly the cavalry. When the war ended in 1865 there were almost 400 negro soldiers in the Federal Army, of whom 200 were After the war their numbers, of course, were largely reduced, but there are still several negro cavalry regiments in the U.S. Army. The raising of these black troops caused great indignation in the Southern States, and threats were made that no quarter of the white men would engage a much bitterer during Our Indians In France. The Germans at first greeted the employment in France of our Indian troops (who are not black) with similar threats, and for some months it was believed that no Indian prisoners were being taken. The Germans ultimately discovered that this was an atreclly that did not pay, and there is no reason to doubt that they have dropped its practice. As to the general military value of negroes as soldiers, Lord Wolesey tells us that certain races like Ashants, Zulus, and Basutos learn military drill quicker than a European, and that they take the war in a wide area in being soldiers. They are not in the Egyptian army, black regiments in the Egyptian army, he said, were the best portion of it, and the West Indian regiments of the British Army, when they were recruited from newly liberated slaves, men fresh from West African forests, were splendid lighting material. The only question which all these authorities leave unanswered is whether negro regiments could stand the shock and noise of high explosives. On the one hand, their blunter nervous organization ought to harden them against "shellshock," from which Europeans suffer; but their lack of the white man's brain may effectively make them victims to subsequent fears when the effects of high explosives are again. For the ordinary wounds and hardships of war the fighting races of Africa care little or nothing, and it will be interesting to see whether Mr. Churchill's demand meets with any result.

Enclosed you will find a set of resolutions we pre-created for the City Council against the exhibition of the book *Wishing you success*. I am yours truly, Joseph E. Sharp, 215 W. Chesterfield, Enid, Oklahoma. Dear Editor—the very name of your paper has inspired me to write you. I know it stands for equality, law and justice to the black man. Last January we donated $2000 dollars to file a suit in the Justice Department money owed me by a white man. Just as soon as they found it was a white man and refused to return my money, I have appealed to the governor and down to the smallest city official and I am told that the black man against a black man. Is not this great republic, when such is allowed, and yet it takes black men to fight its battles.

Several of those we lade have others as are willing to do likewise by going country can be preserved. Today the famous Eighth Army organization composed of some of the highest afields, have heard the call to arms and are ready to be whisked away to the front. It will be remembrment that made such an enviable reputation of the world pale into insignificance in the compared with the wonderful sight of thousands of perhaps to death to defend a country that holds for the lynching mob. It looks almost incredible that men would submit to such humiliation unless gleaming somewhere, a light that would lead them reach. And that is just what we do see; we realize so the strongest numerically—the majority are self-serving going not to fight the white man's battles well, for who can lay better claim to this country we'll fight and our utmost to keep Old Glory our heads.

The cost may be incurred of our gift of their life's blood; of the inevitable things that prior order out of or give me death" should be the slogan of every course we'll fight. AT THE FIRST INITIATION OF TROUBLE with Mexico our troops, the Twenty-fourth and Twenty-fifth Infantry and the Ninth and Tenth Cavalry, were rushed to the scene of action. What lilt, fighting has been done they were in the midst of it. Several of these br. lade have lost their lives and the others are as willing to do likewise, if by so doing the honor of our comrades. Today the famous Eighth Air Force is at an organization composed of types of men the race affords, have heard the call to arms and are ready at a moment's notice to be whisked away to the front. It will be remembered that this is the regiment that made such an enviable reputation while on duty in Cuba. The seven great world of the world pale into insignificance in the minds of many people, compared with the wonderful sight of thousands of them may perceive danger to defend a country that holds for them the privileges and the ynching man that thousands of well-educated men would submit to such humiliation unless they saw a bright light glancing somewhere, a light that would lead them out of the oppressor's reach. And that is just what we do; we realize the fight isn't always to the strongest numerically—the majority are seldom rhlb. We realize we are going not to fight the white man's battles alone but our owa as well, for who can ky better claim to this country than fight? Of course well fight and do our utmost to keep Old Glory proudly waving our heads. Were we not to take this stand we would be deserving of even the limited privileges accorded us; we would have no right to demand a hearing. Never let it be said of us that we are disloyal or cowards. The white man has shame even though it be hidden so deep in his bosom that it is constantly unavailable. He cannot fall to see and recognize in time that we are entitled to every privilege and right enjoyed by him, because we have proven ourselves worthy, because we have answered all call where MEN in the fullest sense were needed. There is always a turning point, and that turning point may only come after this country has been thrown deep in war, when the now dominating powers are forced to admit our worth to our country. The cost may be but one in dollars and cents; thousands may give of their life's blood; choice is like it; it is one of the inevitable things that bring order out of chaos or give me死 death" should be the slogan of every STIRRING UP TROUBLE.

DOING THINGS IN TEXAS. UNFORTUNATELY THE DEFENDER REPORTER wasn't on the spot so we cannot verify the following clipped from a Mexican newspaper headed "TEXAS NEGROES IN REVOLT.": "The revolution in Texas has been inaugurated anew and with greater strength. The banner of the revolt is the independence of that state and the equality of the Negro race. The revolutionists, who are known to be in large numbers, proclaim the independence of the race, not only for the Negro, but for all colors, and are seeking by force to break the chains of slavery and civil pride of these fantastic sons of Uncle Sam. The revolution, which is composed of elements stricty Texan, and which in the war with Mexico supports, according to reports, the plan of San Diego, which seeks the numbers of the state of Texas. The revolters, who are in great numbers have already blown up many trunks and torn up great stretches of truck." If the report is true, and it bears every instance of being true, it is simply a question of the turning of the tide; even a worm will turn on its enemy if trampled upon, and it is not surprising to hear of such demonstrations anywhere below the Mason and Dixon line. Too long have they sat idly and by allowed a handful of ignorant whites to dominate them. The only way to meet force is by force, and when the colored people of the South learn this, then, and only then, will their condition be improved. THE DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION in St. Louis last week was a farce comedy with all the thrills left out. It is ever thus when there is but one in the cast. THE SOUTH SAYS: "Niggers must use the hoe and not be allowed to wear the uniform of blue; therefore they host of not having one in that section—a soldier. Maybe before we are through trying to catch Villa they will be glad not only to see him with a gun, but they will gladly admit him to West Point and Annapolis. WITH UNDMINISHED vigor the Mexicans are still shooting up American citizens, and with the same amount of undiminished vigor President Wilson is still writing notes asking them to please stop. Some administration this? THE ST. LOUIS CONVENTION was about as exciting as a small race on a hot day. Why spend all that money for such a farce? TOO BAD that William Jennings Bryan was even considered as a favorite son in the presidential race—it makes a slight break in his record. ENOUGH TEARS WERE SHEED by mothers, sweethearts and affinities the past, week in front of the 5th regiment armory to make a lake but a trifle smaller than Lake Michigan. "War is ????" IT MATTERS not how dark your hue just so you are not an American Negro you are O. K. with the "great I ams." A Hindoo was living with a family occupying quarters in a strictly residential neighborhood and the women were so shocked at seeing a black man going in and out the flat that they had to the landlord to have the family that was housing said black man vacate the premises. "The tempest in a tea cup" subsided when his true vacate the premises. Which only goes to prove, etc. AFTER THE DENTATIVE WAR with Mexico, you will wonder why it is the Mexican can get a job on our daily papers or join any union he wishes, a big alg counting houses, or why it is the Mexican can ride in a Pullman car in Mexico or ride on an ocean steamer in U. S. waters in first class style, while you, he hates the flag, must ride like mules. We refer you to President Wilson for further information. Mrs. Efgie Dusom: LOOKING FOR WIFE. NAZARETH AND THE SOUTH A GLIMPSE OF CONTRASTS. Many hundreds of years ago it was remarked by a scoffer and cynic of the time. Good Good Come Good Out of Nazareth? PETER H. BURGESS For twenty centuries the scoffer and swallowed in oblivion, but the good man, the rich, rethus that the scoffer and knew not of, that come out of the scoffer so failed to see, still walks the earth with its presence! W. Allison Sweeney. "Has filled it with its presence!" Always—that is to say, for many years—next to hog jowl and cabbage in season, ham hock and mustard any old time, strawberries and cream on the eve of an early day in May, followed by a retreat to an easy chair, a good book and a smokable "weed," I have experienced a certain great pleasure, and almost savage glee in pitchforking those publications in the South that never miss an opportunity to belittle and sneer at the Negro; discounting his past, and ridiculing his calm upon positivity. But—and let the truth, the whole truth, all the truth, be told—something has happened! Something that, if it has not changed the whole viewpoint of my estimate of the South, as seen and heard through his printed voice, has, nevertheless, something that, if it has not changed the whole truth, something good, very good, has recently come out of the South and, putting aside my pitchfork for the time, I earnestly suggest a broad personal of the article that follows, than which the public prints of the country have not for many years contained so fine, so fearless and eloquent a plea for a just recognition of the Negro by the whites of the land, as made by this Southern editor, and printed in a South-American paper. Its habitat being Washington, the U.S. Under the caption, "A Worthy Movement," the editor thus discourse: A movement to raise a monument to Washington last fall by the organization of the National Memorial Association, one United States Senator and several Congressmen are favorable to the plan. The monument on the triangle on U street, Northwest, between Vermont avenue and the University of Negro schools; the funds to be obtained partly through a governmental appropriation. Some of us who are not any too much legalized murder, can well afford to let prejudice aside in behalf of this Colored man, who was going up on cluttering up our park and moving to the Negro soldier and sailor. For countless centuries, the black man man and white man have built many monuments upon the backs of black men and white men have built many monuments upon the backs of black men. I have seen a shaft raised in commemoration of a black man's service to civilization, of the service of the Negro, the cheapest acquisition of his surpassing loyalty, devotion and will. Will white open him this? The Negro has fought valiantly in every war we have waged, on land and in the air. He has defended the sole defender of home, mother and children when white son and white woman Negro has fought the white man's fight just as he has done the white man's fight unfairly, ever unfairly, ever unfairly. And he probably never more credit for his fighting, for his heroism, because he fought not for his own home and country, but for a white man's fight in the country in whose government he was denied a voice. For a monument to these patient, laughing, dancing, loyal, loving sentiments of civilization; and I wouldn't mind having a monument to the Northwest. I would find a more prominent place, a place as prominent as we have carried soldiers who have carried troops for us in laskil and Kosciusko, the LaFayette and Kosciusko, the Frenchmen, the Frederick and the Frenchmen, all of whom have been set up pedestals in Washington.

Robertson, Commissioner of Health and 24, what is known as BABY WEEK in Chicago for the purpose of instructing babies and those who have the care of babies. This is a program rather than how to prevent baby sickness and death, thus the curing of babies after birth. When you realize that nearly three thousand babies died in Chicago during the first year of the 1990s, these deaths were needless and preventable, you can easily understand the importance of baby week campaign Dr. Robertson enlisted the support and co-operation of all nationalities and nurses in the Polish districts, he endeavored to send a nurse and doctor who could speak the language of that people. 100 NURSES. Last Saturday 100 automobiles were in the Baby Campaign Parade. In each nurse parade were two doctors and one nurse who were to be distributed by the doctors and nurses.

Schorling's Park, Sunday Afternoon—The original A. B. C.s opened their series with the crack American Giants this afternoon and lost, 6 to 3, when they threw poorly. Hutchinson was the world's foe, perhaps being a little nervous since a delegation of fans turned out to welcome him, as he is a discard of the Giants. Johnson was on the mound for the Giants and he started the game by fanning Hocker. De Moss hit a highly to Duncan, which the latter dropped after getting the ball in his mitts. Hocker pilfered third, Gocket failing to see a man on the mound. Johnson fanned Allen and Petway got Kenneth's foul. Barber fled to De Moss. Hocker took care of Duncan unassisted. Gans singled over second, Lloyd hit a long foul fly which Ithoades got after a hard fall. Second Inning—Hutchinson fled to Barber. Johnson threw out Hannibal and Boudas. Grant singled, Petway walked, and then sacrificed, Rauchman hit to De Moss, who tried to get Grant at the plate, c Kennard let the ball get away from 2. Petway scored when Kennard took a time going after the ball and Buchan pulled up at third. Johnson scored suchman with a sharp single.

The hashes were the first to give the nineswales the 7 to 6 victory over the stars, though the Stars played a battleship surprise game against the nineswales, the second baseman, the hesees, and making the leaguers go at top speed to win. The feature of the game was the sensational throwing of the national League, second baseman, throwing out seven of seven, and breaking of Brown against Parker, formerly of the National League. Parker struck out man and brown nine. Manager Bean has been brown nine. Manager Bean is of Indianapolis A. B. C., and Beckwith, of Louisville White Sox, which adds great strength to the Stars. The Stars Sunday June 25 to play the Schrivers who have not lost a game this season, winning nine games. Arthur Stewart's Band will furnish some ringer time for the some tag time to score. E. R. H.

JOHNSON AND BORSEY BATTLE TO A DRAW New York, June 23.—Lee Johnson and Eddie Dorsay fought a fast ten-round one-on-one of the best fights between club fighters that has been staged at this club this season. To those who expected to win, Dorsay latter the clever but supposedly weak-killing Johnson, were treated to a surprise. They saw Johnson do the hasty hiding and Dorsay the love trapping. Dorsay was in fine form, whereas Johnson seemed to affect him at all. He fought dogged battle all through the first five rounds when Dorsay was leading in the second round, and was very fensive in the sixth round by pouring rights and lefts into the stomach, slowing Dorsay up. Then came the bit surprise, a swing into the sixth round Johnson put over a lightning-like swing to Dorsay's jaw. The opponent, his knees twisted, and he started to sink forward, but Johnson's left arm was under his own right, and this acted. It kept him from going down and he weathered the round out by clever block shots. The result was grudden slowing up of Dorsay until the tenth, when he scored a decisive sword for a minute in a final轮. Johnson was the faster of the two. Dorsey was perhaps the cleverer. Dorsey hit the best in so far as he hit with short snappy jerks, whereas Johnson took a wider sweep to his blows. Johnson, however, was the best body puncher and his blows on the whole carried the most steam. As for taking blows Johnson was far superior to Dorsey. Johnson sent Dorsey's head back half a dozen times with a straight left jab and his swings rocked Dorsey. But Dorsey never once shook Johnson, although he handed fully a dozen clean rights to the jaw during the mill. The fast pace the two set in the first five rounds tired Dorsey. In those rounds he took the offensive and forced the milling almost every step of the way, pushing Johnson around, landing his one-two right and crossing with a snappy left hook. But his aggressiveness got him little. Johnson kept horing in, taking what came his way and blocking as much as possible, which, with Johnson, was a good deal. Johnson was laying for Dorsey's wind, and finally started after it. From then on Johnson had the better of things, and when he started, his blows counted. It was a fine fight all the way; it was full of action every minute. Both tried hard, and both were going like six-round boys at the end in a final brilliant rally started by Dorsey and finished by Johnson. In the semi-final six-round bout Batting Chuck knocked out Kid Bacon in the fifth round with a right swing to the chin. This bout was a hard-hitting one, but Chuck was on the better and had Bacon on the run most of the way. NEW DORMITORY. when Friendship is True.

The team, with Wilberforce University hall tossers has brought forth many compliments, as the scramble little coach's untiring efforts have made. The team did not lose any of the college games this season, and all games were played with white team teams. They won two games, and lost two. Five games being cancelled because of rain, Coley, a recruit from Alabama, led with the stick, while Childs, a south-paw of Oakhawk, prowled the field. All their work gave premier strength to the Preston machine. WILL HONOR EX-SLAVES. AIDED MISS DOMISCAN, Montreal, Canada, June 23—The Union Progressive League will hold their in- ternational games for the next six months. The reports of funds in which the Race has taken great interest for the defense of the league will be announced on Monday last and the amount, $60.00. The first time such interest in this city has grown the younger set, with such a bright life for the future. Miss Domiscan is only one of the youngest players with no relative in this country. Rev.

The timers, we will stop to explain, were accurate, honest and just. About fourteen stop watches caught Diamond in 17.2/5 seconds. Not only did this happen, but Diamond came right back and ran it over again in the relay in a fraction over 14. Now, I realize that Ted is an easterner; naturally, being white, we don't expect anything else of Valentine, but we certainly did from the two other papers. Valentine goes on to say that when Diamond beat Meridith in the St. Anthony games that the white boy was out of condition and that the meet was indoors. Meridith was NOT out of condition. Diamond beat him and will do it AGAIN if the two ever hook up. Another thing those cheesy critics want to understand, Diamond won by a great margin and Meridith was pushed. Looking over a St. Louis paper we find even in this Southern town that the consensus of opinion as the writer there says: "Unprejudiced admirers of athletic form were numerous on that occasion and they fully believed Diamond is Ted's master. They have seen them both perform. Diamond has been beaten by Ted in the Fair games, but the University of Chicago had led the white boy for 400 yards. He beat him sure the next time."
