Dear Editor: I have not consider me forward in writing you, but I was advised to do so by a lady whom you aided in getting a job playing in a picture show. I used to do the Hoochey Koochey with the T. Barnum side show and am at present employed as waitress in a small hotel. You belonged to a quartette of entertainers called "The Stock Yards Four." It was a good, strong act, and did well until the leading lady caught her foot in a frog on a railroad track and quushed her voice out of place. Would he escape in a cabaret or stock company. Please answer. LUCY WIGGLES. Reply—Dear Wiggies: Of course, I don't think you forward in writing. I am only sorry that you didn't write me. You are honest. You money than you are now. I don't imagine that the remuneration is very great for biscuit shooting in the park. You are honest. There isn't much call for Hare Kenders dancers these days. The dances that are popular now are mostly danced with the feet. I would adhere to, however, to keep in practice, because you can dance a song soon that calls for a good shaking all the way down. The lady piano player you mention cut out owing me 60 cents commuted to a local address? I remember "The Stock Yards Four." It sure was a strong act; in fact, it was stronger that that was a tough thing that happened but the world at large owes a real debt to that frog. The Panama Cafe might be able to use you in my Garden, which they are arranging this winter. Will let you now send Me $1.98 in silver and I will forward my little hellotrophe booklet, me Shiverse for Broken Arches, or, making it Into Popularity." —Editor THE GRAND Back to this house's regular policy, five excellent vaudeville nets opened on Monday. The headline act was Copeland & Peyton and their Four Dining Car Girls. It is the biggest and best thing ever offered by this excellent team of comedians and is a novelty. The work of the principals is too well known to need elaborate comment; the four girls, who make up "brown-skin," are a fast working lot and aside from their song offerings, which are good, they introduce some of the cleverest dancing ever here and are the most classical singing team, opened the works. They were followed by Izetta, the Accordionist, who went well and did a legitimate encore. Frederick Allen & Co., in a clever sketch, showed real historiic ability and the Whott Four girls, one of the prettiest nets ever seen here, put many good roles in the show, foot work over in the most improved style. Billy King & Co. furnished their second long run here on Sunday night. Tir offering was a screeningly funny, to be timely and well presented. The song numbers were "Good-bye, Everybody." "What the Engine Did," "Everyone Must Have a Ticket," "The Owl Found Bags," "Darwin to the Owl," "I'm Going Back to Caroline." The comedy of Billy King and Billy Walker was feature. Mae Page Taylor, a fair vocalist, opened the bill. She was followed by an emcee, and Fern & Zell, a neat and conservative black and tan team, who can really do the "jigg." A NOTE OR TWO T. Theo, Taylor, accompanist, and Walter Gosset, organist, are only two of the well-known artists who will appear on the Mine. Bye-bye programme, the name of Sev. 25. Many concerts will be introduced at this concert. The team of Jerome and Lewis has dissolved. Mr. Lewis is sojourning in sunny California and Mr. Jerome is strolling the hotel will soon double with a new partner.

Orpheum time. --- Dear Mr. Tony: I read your page every week and think you are a greater writer than Shakespeare. I am a real writer myself and have written some great scenarios. Can you place them with some moving picture company for me? One of my plays is "Minnie the Manicure Girl, or, Every Plot Hurts Its Good Points." It tells of the struggles of a poor girl who refuses to go to a manicure shop. He puts a tack on the chair she sits her customers in, for revenge. The porter sees the man's fendish action, but before he comes in and sits on it. He lets out an awful yell and is about to fire poor, innocent Minnie when the porter tells who placed the tack. The porter tells him that the tack falls, hits his brains out on the back pole, the proprietor murries Minnie, and after hiring the porter for their chauffeur, they live happy ever after. She tells you what he thinks of and I should I send my manuscripts. You truly. AUGUSTUS HIBROUGH. Reply—Deal Gusset. Your scenario is in the book. You read to read where the foreman buits his brains out, but it was a shame for him to spoil the barber pole. He must have been an exceptional barber, and the bers promoted to that position who have brains, is few. Minnie also must have been "different," or she would have fallen for the cabaret man. You set her chapeau for the boss, as it is not unusual for a man cur�ist to be able to shape her own ends. Did you get that? would advise you to use a shaving paper, or a large inch squares and submit them to your nearest barber to be used as shaving paper. You sire do Shakespeare spare proud when you compare him with your friend. You prepare with you. Send me $3 in pennies and I'll mail you my little M. R. S.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER HIGHEST BID Elsie Burleigh, a charming girl, is a daughter of a designing mother, who plans to marry her to a wealthy husband. Oliver Strong is a stock broker, who has fought his way up the ladder and her coming-out party Elsie meets Strong in love at first sight on both sides. They quickly become engaged, much to Mrs. Burleigh's satisfaction. A short time later Strong is completely wiped out in a financial conspiracy headache and in a painful operator, Addison Gray. The loss has made and his misfortune gives secret pleasure to his financial enemy, Addison Grey. To add to Strong's troubles Mrs. Burleigh induces Elsie to cancel her engagement to Strong and return him his ring, base of his changed financial fortunes. Strong, broken in spirit and seeking to get away from civilization for a period, goes into the Sierras. There he meets his old Uncle Jerry, an eccentric character, who has reason to believe that he vein of virgin gold in old English Country. Becoming friendly, they search for the vein together, living in a rough cabin. About this time Addison Grey becomes the matrimonial target of Mrs. Burleigh, and she soon contrives an engagement between Grey and her daughter Elsie. Grey invites Mrs. Burleigh and Elsie to accompany him on a trip to his hunting lodge in the Slerras, and while there Elsie again meets Strong through a picturesque and romantic incident. In the meantime Strong has discovered the wonderful vein of virgin gold, a fact he withholds from Elsie to test her real love for him. A tremendous forest fire, covering many acres of timber land, in which Grey shows the white feather, while Strong is absolutely fearless, and in which Elsie plainly tells Grey she is fighting for Strong's home and her own, too, results in a permanent reunion and the entire discomfiture of Grey. "The Highest Bid" is a wonderful drama, magnificently staged, with an actual forest fire of gigantic proportions, as a stupendous spectacular elimax. It is a Mutual Star production featuring William Russell and Charlotte Burton. It comes to the States theater on Sunday, Sept. 10, beginning with the regular 2:30 matinee. DOUGLAS THEATER Macon, Ga., Sept. S—J. V. Snow and his Pickinian Troubadours, featuring "The Gold Dust Twins," are meeting with great success here this week.

Bessie the newest star on the motion picture horizon, will again be motion the picture. The rise of Miss Love to stardom has been the most rapid of any in the Triangle theater. She is the first girl to play over 17 years old. About twelve months ago she was a high school girl in Los Angeles. Toward the close of that particular school year she informed her informant that she had progressed far enough and that she was going to emulate the example of some other girls of her acquaintance and apply for work at the moving picture. The Triangle-Fine Arts people accepted her as an extra, but before long she was given small parts and consequent opportunities to learn. In "The Flying Torch" she was given the part of the Swedish servant. She was a stant success, and from that time there have been no obstructions to her advance. Since then she has played in "The Aryan" and with Douglas Fairbairn the newest Bad Mun "and Reggie Mims In." In the language of the scrub woman, Bessie sure is cleaning up. HIS LEGS Chick Owens, who is featured with the Holiday in Dixie company, which comes to the Grand for a full week, beginning Sunday, has the most remarkable performance.

When September first rolled around, ye old dramatic editor dusted off his straw lid and set himself for the last week of summer, and allowed by the mayor to make up our mind what kind of color the first felt hat of the fall will be. There is only one individual in Chicago who would take advantage of a contemporary, under the circumstances. That man is Sylvester Moore, a young man up bright and early on Sept. 1st with a fedora of dark gray, with fuzz all over it—a hat that would have made the famous fashion plate, Berry Wall, turn green with envy. Ye editor took it philomelic and burying his nose in a fresh kettle, sadly remarked, "Scoped again."

Lowden has conducted his campaign for the nomination as Republican candidate for governor in a tough race. "His campaign has revived and strengthened Republicanism in Illinois and has been singularly free from perceptions of the party's stalwart elites for the nomination by presenting them without cause for offense to others, or reflecting upon the motives of the party," the Republicans of Illinois and the country are striving to unite and build up, to attract all by their co-operation, to unite and strengthen our party. Mr. Lowden has refrained from creating factual strife and represents no faction of the party, and leaves the better for his primary campaign. "He is abundantly qualified to discharge the duties of governor and bring with him a proper appreciation of the party, and leaves the better for his other departments of state government. "His Republicanism and his illness appear to me. I favor his nomination. He is a strong and a most powerful source of strength in the November election. I am supporting him because I believe his nomination is the most interesting of the whole Republican party." Speaking tonight at Blue Island, a suburb of Colton, Colonel Lowenfeld campaigns. He has had the courage everywhere the past week and enters upon the final drive in good voice and equal to the endurance test. John V. Farwell, one of Chicago's greatest merchants, and well known among many charities and philanthropists, declared for Frank O. Lowenfeld for governor. In a statement, sa says: "I appreciate his manliness when he declined to make a trade some years ago and he has been governor. I like his position on the civil service law, and the work he did in getting it established. "I appreciate his business sense as a first-class business administration, so that the people of the state would get more for their money than they have gotten for any administration in recent years."

(Additional Personal Mention on page 2) MISS IRENE HUDLIN'S DEBUT A SOCIAL TRIUMPH "Coming Out" Party Swellest and Prettiest Event Ever Witnessed in City THE CHICAGO DEFENDER "There was a sound of revelry by night," And Chicago's best blazed effulgent; Her "beauty" and her "manhood," and bright. The phone o'er fair women and brave men. Myrghas of "hearts beat" cheerly; "and when Music arose with its voluptuous swell" Soft eyes "spoke happiness" to eyes which spake again. And all went merry as a "marriage bell." The slight transposition of the lines above—with apologies to the shades of Byron, makes the picture and furishes the side lights of the "coming out"—speak in correct "form"—of Miss Irène Porcine Hudlin, who, by her parents Mr. and Mrs. William H. Hudlin of 3250 Paris, was on the night of August 13, at Queen's Gate, fifth street and Racine avenue, hours to 10, formally presented to society. Chicago's all and best; impeccable in the dress, the gown, and the innere and an irrepressible aroma of good hearts," responded finely to the elishness of her horn before the castle gates of their young and budding womanhood, than which there is no vision in all this world harborage with chivalry and life on life's serious journey—just begin—the DIPSHIP, LOVE AND TRUTH to be ridden by her. To we who have known her—harking back to the fresh and dewy years of her footsteps tugged at the hearts around and filled a home with glee. It was a resurrection, a repensilation of days that could NEVER of a girlhood going, passing, almost gone; but one that was rare, quite rare, her beauness always always loved her best, and saw her most, she had a beauness; always aligned; always good; always sought the fine view the clear prospect; intuitively without conchig or command, her great, round, within their roving gaze the glint of a keener mentality, always had swept out the mores; the slough and winding way. But—what's the use? Words are a time is fleeting; glimpses for a moment. The Receiving Line The following ladies, other than the debilitate, and her mother, Mrs. William H. Hudlin, composed the receiving calligraphy. Imsa Irene Bennock Knott of Great Falls, Mont. niece of a girlhood friend of Mrs. Hudlin, and for whom both she bears the name Maud J. Roberts, Mrs. Patricia French and Mrs. Dr. George Cleveland Hail. The Toilet The debauchat was attired in a crea- tioned chiffon, she stood in white satin chiffonware. Her head was crowned with a cluster of curts held in place by a cloak; her hair, she stood in white satin slipper. Simplicity was a necklace of pearls and a coral bouquet of wand roses. This bouquet is modest, with limbs that may imply femininity, limbs with accents and faithfulness, that bwitching and elusive thing—a maiden's joy—pure un- less she has glimpses of the celestial, in dream shone in the dalmity girlle's face? Some sisters, who can, I cannot; such fonts resemble the Mrs. Hudlin, the mother of the debutante, wore a gown of rose pink embroidered volle, over pink taffeta, with a bodice of pink crene de chine; her only ornament being a necklace of fade and a corsage bouquet of Kiljarney roses. She was a picture, readily to be imagined, of what anatomists of the soul have named the Mother Ecstatic; serene; beautiful, guardful, lest even the winds of heaven kiss the brow of her baby too roughly; always a charming personality, winsome, almost girlish, she, on this never-to-beforsozen night in the lives of her darling and herself, seemed extremely happy; her soul was a thing away—way yonder, where—a loveable old philosopher has told us, that beyond the stars; above the blazing suns; in a zone not built by hands, a throng of kindred spirits—millions and millions of them, are, on certain occasions in communication with their own—the GOOD MOTHER'S OF EARTH. Miss Knott, a flesh and blood reality of sweet girl spirituality and sprightliness; a product, to the manor born, of the great and Golden West, was attired in a harmonious contribution of blue and white striped marquette and blue taffeta, ornamented with white chiffon face and pearl passementerle; she also wore a corsage bouquet of ward roses. Miss Roberts, Chicago's unchallenged queen in "splendid didolation"—having a big idol named big city's muso-social life; fainted; brilliant; graced a gown of yellow and white silk, trimmed with silk net and pearls. Mrs. French, augusting the help of her attire and gentle sir of Princess primess, wore a robe of white marquessian in chiffon embroidery at Val lee. Mrs. Hall, always stately; the grand maid and equipped social purveyor fitting her, and rose garb of rose brocade and black net and diamonds. The Moving of the Procession—The Crush By 7:45 the procession in Ilmousine, auto, electric, taxi, "L" surface line and on foot moved; by 8:30 the jam had reached a head; by 9:00 the CRUSH was on. The scene at the doors of the Assembly Hall and corridor opening into the main auditorium resembled a first night at grand opera. The twin ilmousines, bearing, in one, the debutante, her parents, Mr. and Mrs. William H. Hudlin, Miss Maud Roberts and Mr. and Mrs. Julius Avendorph; in the other, Mrs. Claudia Douglass, Mrs. A. Belle Cary of Valparaíso, Ind.; Mrs. Bessie Graves of Mobile, Ala.; and Mrs. Julia Jackson, aunt of the debutante, were on schedule time; having preceded the avalanche of beauty, fashion and society long enough to allow Introducer Avendorph and his assistants, Mr. Frank B. Warling and Mr. William S. Sobers, to select and station the ladies in the receiving line, but none too soon. The throng, slowly but surely; an irrepressible, unstayable billow of humanity; men and women; maldos and misses; Early Autumn Bud MISS-IRENE BERENICE HUDLIN Daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Hud- dson, an avenue, whose coming out party the day before was the event of many seasons; society's swetland affair. ing by their presence, dignity and bal- ance to the occasion, struggled through the termmedness; anxious to glimpse the night's debatement; the bright particular of "Starter"; and through the offices of "Starter"; Aventure, the an- tity and Chesterfield of social form and usage, wish her blue skies and shades on the pilgrimage she was entering on. The Stranger Within the Gate The stranger: but charmingly so, was much in evidence. The cities of New Orleans, St. Louis, Mo.; Richmond, Va.; Washington, D. C.; Baltimore, Md.; Columbus, Ohio; New York, Boston, Denver, far-off-Los Angeles, Cincinnati and Detroit, were represented; mainly by ladies, sweet-faced and smartly gowned; guests in the main, in our Chicago homes; who through the grace and favor of a fine aprit of hospitality, for which Mrs. William H. Hudlin is famous, were cordially invited to accompany their hosts and make merry with the rest: "Lookers-On in Vienna." And a merry time it was; SUCH a merry time; the FINEST of the fine; the MOST splendid of the splendid. "Chicago has not," remarked a dear, gentle creature with snowy hair and velvet voice; a real sclon of an old and eminently esteemed family; "Chicago has not in many years witnessed such an outpouring; such a tribute to the character of a dear and pretty girl; it is fine and inspiring; they are mistaken who declare Chicagoans, the old reliable BEST Chicagoans, are callous and unmindful of the good and beautiful!" All things have an end. Professor William Brown Jr. and his fine party chair, and strummed their last dawn air; Wilson on hand; punch order; the clock hands approached the last hour before midnight; the outside scores and scores of convevences for the run home; and soon the "coming" of the season, the ONE of the many seasons, had become a memory—just a memory.

The Lincoln beat the Mauser X. in the first game, 9 to 5, and defeated the Chinese of Hawaii in an uphill game. In the second game, the Lions got a five-run lead. Next Sunday the Long Branch Cubans and Cuban LARGE CROWD SEES LINCOLN STARS LOSE New York, Sept. 8...The Degon Gray's defeated the Lincoln Stars at Gainesville, with a score of 10 to 4.

LITZINGER TO GIVE FLAG TO AMERICAN GIANTS FOR WINNING CHAMPIONSHIP: GIANTS PLAY GUNTHERS Edward R. Litzinger, Republican candidate for board of review, has made good one of his many promises which he usually makes good, and has given the American Giants a flag for winning the championship of the world. Mr. Litzinger will also give to each Giant EDWARD R. LITZINGER Republican Candidate for Board of Re view; Friend of the Race; A Man Worthy of Your Vote player an emblem (pure gold). He is not only a good follower of the game and a close personal friend of the able manager, Andrew Rube Foster, but it was he that was instrumental while president of the Inter-City Association CUBANS HAND AMERICAN Schorling's Park, Sunday afternoon.—Death Valley Scott proved easy for the Cuban Stairs today over the American Infield, and the infield seemed to go to piece at critical moments. Grant had an off day; so did John Lloyd and a few others. Scott seemed a bit nervous, but pulled out a hole in the first round. The Giants, with their first-round win, were Barber singled, Hill sacrificed, Duncan singled, driving home Barber and scoring a moment later on Lloyd's sharp binge right. The Giants were undaunted, however. Rios started the fourth inning by singling, Padron skied to Duncan, Lloyd's error gave Jiminez a life, Chacon was Gonzales walked, filling the bases. Turnover, Padron scored, and Rios scoring; Villan was purposely passed; Pedroso, whom Scott played for an easy out, clouted a two-base drive, and the socks were leered. Rodriguez singled, and the laces were lime in that inning, walked; Padron was granted's error, two runs going across. Jiminez ended the agony by flying to Lloyd. That was only one of the many bad innings Scott had, yet none were quite so awful. It was no use wasting another pitcher with such fielding, and Ruble let Scott take a rifle batting the Giants getting on the short end of the 12-second. The life seemed out of the fray until Frank Duncan shapped one of Padron's fast ones against the real estate signboard in right field. The score: CUBAN STARS R. H. P.O.A.

THE CHICAGO DEPARTMENT SPORTS BY MISTER FAN 91 FLAG DAY --- in getting the Giants into the Inter-City League. For years Mr. Litzinger has been a close friend of our people, and since the Giants have such a strong team, the whites have complained that they would stand no show in the City League with Rube and his champion shoppers in the league. Rube withdrew and it was then that Mr. Litzinger, seeing that he had no chance at the cup that was annually awarded for the city semi-pro champions, offered to give a fine flag as an emblem of championship should Mr. Foster's team win from the New York Lincoln Stars. This Mr. Foster did. But many of the fans were not satisfied owing to the fact that Taylor A. B. C's had defeated the Lincoln. The Indianapolis boys were decisively beaten and the championship now rests in Chicago. Mr. Ildzinger is now candidate for Republican nomination for the board of review and has promised (and he always keeps his promise) that if nominated and elected that he will look out after the small taxpayer as well as the large.

Y., Sept. 5.—Taking the measure of the Ericsson-Casabelli by a score of 5 to 4 in the first game and losing to the Linde Aire by a 13 to 11 count in the second, the Pittsburgh Colored Stars split the double header at Charles Stump's park Sunday afternoon. Lack of pitching material killed the Stars' chances of a double victory. They had the second game pretty well tacked away, but with an infielder on the mound and later forced to call upon Emory, who pitched the first game, they were unable to hold their advantage. Beating the Ericsson-Casabelli, the Colored boys defeated the famous McCoy in hold the Polish Nationals on one hit, and then defeated the 18 hits off his delivery. A ninth inning rally, netting three runs, gave the Linde's victory over the Colored Stars at the second game. The score of the game at the second game was 11-8, inning, when Eddie Diem opened with a triple to center. Fausst got his base on an error after two out, allowing Diem to score. Panther followed with a triple, which Diem and he came home on a double by Lou. A.B. R. H. P.O. A.

C. PLACES SECOND IN BRICKLAYERS' MEET White Sox Park Monday afternoon the Lincoln Athletic Club surprised the followers of the cinder path by finishing second that afternoon in the track and field event of the Bricklayers' Annual Field Day and Athletic Carnival. Lee Jefferson ran away with the individual honors when he captured the half mile and the mile. The Illinois Athletic Club (white). with its array of local college and high school talent, won the meet, as usual. Bill Butler, ex-Hyde Park High star dash man and a member of the Wabash Avenue Branch of the Y. M. C., was enrolled in the second heat of the 1000 yard dash. Against him was Att. Henke (white), a crack Illinois A.C. man. Butler won his heat in 102-5. Walter Hughes was entered by Coach Hammond, but failed to show up. Then came the final of the hundred. Hill seemed a bit over-anxious, and was set back a yard for a false start. However, he got the jump and the start, but about the three-quarters Raymond Rubolz (white) in the Illinois A.C. came one even terms with him. Butler put every ounce of steam into action and breezed home, the winner by a scant margin. Time: 10-5. Lee Jefferson and L. Hocker were entered in the mile run. Loe surprised all with his slight handicap by winning over van Meyer and other cracks. Hocker was used and quit, thinking he had finished. Homer Lewis, L. Roy Curry and D. F. Rhodes were entered in the "100" against 31 white athletes.

Get a lexicon; look it up; it isn't an obsolete study it; apply its value; use in the place of self-conceit. Try it in the determined man. Ignore "Mr. Keep-him-down"; be a friend to "Mr. Helping-hand." There are 12,000,000 of us; think of the wages earned; those necessities; the squares concerned. Thousands of dollars we spend; who gets the profits? We pay the cost. Animate Unity; place those profits; or we'll always be the human dress. No money isn't the only unit; there's friendship and brotherly love. Are you a true friend; a real brother; will you acknowledge before "God" above? This verse from the 133rd Psalm should dominate every Negro community: "Behold how pleasant it is for brother to dwelling." Another verse, a parable of men's "in union there is strength." We've got it: "it coiled up; let's pull it out full length, in all professions, in all professions we've got none unlike us; we the balance, know naught of unity; we're lions, caged in a den. Remember: "God helps those who hate, helps us take up; get busy, and the first thing." "Unity shelves." Yes, we may still be ostracized, or given any torture under the sun, but leave that to "God," for our duty in this capacity will have been FOOTBALL CALL Last call for candidates of both the light-weight and heavy-weight teams of the Lincoln Athletic Club, and men will report in uniform at 5:30 Sept.

NO-HIT, NO-R TO AMERIC Schorling's Park, Saturday Afternoon. -Soldom do two pitchers on the same team figure in a no hit, no run contest, but the uncertainty of baseball makes the game so popular. Today Tom Johnson started on the mound for the Giants against the Cubans and had to be taken out in the fifth inning and Whitworth held the Islanders safe the other two innings, the game being called in the seventh. All the credit of the victory doesn't belong to Tom nor to Whitworth. Much credit belongs to Duncan, Hill and Gans, just as it was about to hit the fence. Taylor's A. R. C.'s were banded another brand of local baseball when the Indiana boys seemed like Indiana boys seeming and the game safely tucked away. The Bull Mousers AMERICAN GIANTS AND BULLMOOSERS IN Scholling's Park. Thursday. — The American Giants and the Indianapolis A. K. Cs. hooked up in a ten-linning game, which ended in a tie. The Giants won by a score of 10-9, nursing when an error by Lloyd and a wild hoey by Barber to Grant, coupled with two smashes, netted the Hoosiers three runs. The Giants came right back in their half with jumane safe on Charles-Paul of Lloyd. Lloyd's single and Pranke's double to Clark, but Lloyd was killed at the plate. Both teams fought hard in the tenth. Tom Johnson went to the mound for the Giants; Cusack called the game at the score, inning owing to darkness. The score: AMERICAN GIANTS R. H. O. A.

TEXAS EDITOR TAKES ISSUE WITH DEFENDER By Gattling Gun Somehow or other every little while the Chicago Defender waits people up. If the needs of the lace throughout the city are met, face that the Eighth regiment is down. Then and that the men, although wearing the uniform of the United States and losing their helmets, are that (that is most of them), are not recorded the privileges of white soldiers while in Texas, the very state that they have been in. They are against the supposed Mexican invasion. There is no other nation in the world that would make any class of soldiers, no matter what their color, ride in one white of the street car while the white of another ride in the other. Why are we lightning Mexicans, they are accorded more privilege and better accommodations than we are simply because our color is black, or that they are descendants of the same. We strongly objected to this, but Spain is not so, and the regiment is getting more and that the treatment is about as good as they can expect. A St. Louis paper copies that article. Well, so much for that. We could not expect anything more of the Texas editor in San Antoz, because he probably does not say anything about "his white folks" and their actions. What we do know is that the regiment is not accorded the treatment they should have. I interviewed a soldier boy who has just returned and he said that the cooks in certain companies are too lazy to put onons in the stew they give the boys, that when they pass any whites on the streets remarks are made concerning their color; they are forced to ride in the Jim Crew section of the street cars, while Mexicans ride with the whites; that Vol. Denison does not allow but few downtown at a time; that many men want to come home and say that they will NEVER soldier for the government again; that every effort is being made to keep conditions secret and letters coming home to friends and relatives in this city say that the boys want to come home if they can find a loophole to get out of staying there. A wife of a commissioned officer received a letter last week that the boys slept in water and that he wanted to resign. Must be some reason why a man drawing pay past the hundred and fifty mark would want to get out. The Texas editor who is subjected to separate schools and separate places to work in Texas must office and truce to explain to the world that a law that is unconstitutional is all right because it is a law in Texas is one one men to join the regiment march to the battle, to burn the sun, be subjected to the taunts of the white soldiers and citizens and then be commanded by an insignificant man because they are "for white folks." ```markdown ``` As we close we will say to the Eve Opener that as long as the Chicago Defender is a defender it will not UPHOLD him to carry and street cars, whether they be in Texas, Miami, Mississippi or Africa. That because the white people should to impose these so-called laws and that weak-kneed editors uphold them we will not join in with them, but light harder and harder for the masses to carry refuse to ride in the cars and some deny we may live to see the law abolished.

WORLD'S CHAMPIONS 12 Who will be presented with a championship flag Sunday by Edward R. Litzinger, candidate for Member of the Board of Review. The Giants have owned their spurs by leading the Cuban Stars by ten games, and having defeated the best teams in the country, including Taylor's A. B. C.'s and the Lincoln Stars of New York. CLUB MAKES RECORD By John D. Epps The carelessness of many of our athletes in appearing at recent track games for track suits that have needed washing for month has caused much concern and disgust among those who take time to go out and encourage the boys. At the Eighth regiment field day meet a mile runner appeared in a dirty suit, miusa a button or two, and disgusted the start until some one handed him a pim. The white athletes came out in the cleanest of suits, and it would be well for our boys to follow. ONCVEER MADE GOOD HIS PROMISE Last winter when Andrew ("Rule") fornia and in Cuba he made a promise, he returned he would have the best test Chicago. Today he has accomplished the in every series of games that they had all over the country. The American G New York; the pride of Indianapolis—and many white teams. In the series they have the will be given a championship flag Suns cup fame, a candidate for the Board of Mr. Lizginger is a personal friend of friend of Mr. Foster. He is donating the Last winter when Andrew ("Tulane") Foster left this city for his tour in California and in Cuba he made a promise to the base ball lotting public that when he returned he would have the best team of ball tossers that ever represented Chicago. Today he has accomplished the feat. He has piloted his team to victory in every series of games that they have engaged in with the best teams from all over the country. The American Giants have defeated the Lincoln Stars of New York; the pride of Indianapolis—Taylor's A. R. Cs; the St. Louis Giants; As a result of this they have the championship, and in taken of the same will be given a championship flag Sunday by Edward R. Litzinger, of Litzinger cup fame, a candidate for the Board of Review in Tuesday's election. Mr. Litzinger is a personal friend of our ball players as well as a very close friend of us, donating the magnificent flag as his appreciation of the Giants' suplendid playing this season as his promise. He won the championship. Mr. Litzinger will also personally present the player with the emblem. He has for years given a cup to the winners of the city series and it was he who paved the way while president of the Inter-City association (largest semi-pro. organization in the world) for the American Giants to become members of the City League. The Giants were so strong that they won with ease, and as a result they withdrew. C. I. Taylor was a hit served at the sporting editor, and as a result he entertained him with some pretty hot words during Thursday's game. The Hoover leader finally admitted that Charleston's actions were not to be upheld, but thought we should have suppressed it. News is news. Our motto is if you don't want it that way HEHAVE YOUR TUBE. Since Sina Diamond has quit the collegiate department at the University and gone to the medical school on the West Side he is not taking active part in athletics. A good doctor is far better than a good runner any day. If one goes sick they can call up the Sina in a few years from there and we can break down he can certainly cover the distance IN RECORD TIME. Walter Speedy will leave at this office a cash guarantee of fifty to two hundred dollars for a match to be played on any of the local golf links. Eighteen to thirty-six holes. Come on, you champs, let's hear something now. Pittsburg takes the lead once more. Have to hand it to Messrs. Lewis and Vann. The Scholastics have a hummer of a team. Wish them much success. Fans kicked last year and said that Rube's men were slowing up. Now they feel just the opposite when the old Roman showed up with Grant at first this spring, things looked different. Still ten games ahead of the creek Cuban Stars, and winner over every club that has come here this season. That's going some. The Giants have done more to put Chicago on the baseball map than the major league teams in the past five years. A SHAME THE CHICAGC, DEFENDER THE AMERICAN GIANTS NATIONAL AMATEUR CHAMPIONSHIPS Drew and Dismond Greatly Missed; Morse Strong Contender in the Century Newark, N. J., Sept. 5.—The National Amateur Athletic senior championships, which come off tomorrow, will be marred by the absence of Howard P. Drew, the crack dash man, who is unable to compete owing to a recent attack of paralysis. More than that the great Bunga Dismond will not compete and the absence of this great quarter-miler, too, will be sadly missed. It was strongly hoped that the University athletics team, the same team with Ted Merdeth as many followers of the elder path firmly believe that he is the master of the Pennsylvania runner and they were willing to suggest that he would be wiser over Merdeth. Yet with these two stars out of the game many other features are on the program to keep the loyal followers of the clender path full of excitement. Roy F. Morse, national 220-yard champion, is entered in the hundred against Joe Loomis (white) of Chicago; Alvin T. Meyers (white), Irish-American A. C.; White of the Salem—prescent, and there is a strong possibility of the Graham Bros. of Pittsburgh being entered. Morse will have to move some for from Spokane, Wash., comes a white lad named Williams who defeated Howard Drew in the Far Western Championships. Williams is credited with doing the century in nine and four-fifths. Of course, we know experience is in favor of Roy and in him, we hope, lies the power to hold Drew's record with us. Jenkins, Motley and other stars are likely to "blossom" forth on the horizon, to say nothing of Irving Howe, the Granger boys of Dartmouth College fame; Harry Martin, who, running for the Scholastics of Pittsburgh, equaled the world's hurdle mark on a bad field, and the ever-ready Sol Butler.

DENISON, BACE, LAWYER, FOR JUDGE In the widespread conviction that the Republican party will be returned the winner at the coming national, state and county elections, the Colored citizen of Chicago have submitted to the Republican party the claims of its 25,000 voters for a judicial nomination through the presentation of the name of Colonel Franklin A. Donson. Having served the city of Chicago as assistant prosecuting attorney for six years and as assistant corporation counsel four years, inheritance tax commissor four years, and judge of army chaplain four years, the feeling is general that he is probably better qualified than any other candidate for this particular office from the primary ticket. In view of the probable return of the Eighth regiment in the early part of November, or possibly earlier, the thought of citizens that he, too, in common with the commanders of other Chicago regiments, should be sultant rather than citizen, is this important office is the most appropriate reward which could be given to him. For the sake of his honor, he nominated, he is a lawyer of fine ability; he is a patriotic American citizen; he has had the necessary experience; he has had the necessary experience; he has made to goodake if nominated and given. The committee indulges the hope that the Colored voters will attend the polls on Wednesday, Sept. 23, and nominate one of its deserving representatives for an important office.

The letter was the announcement to retail dealers regarding a campaign of advertising in that section of Georgia and concluded with the line, "Yours for niger business." We wish to assure the P. S. Company that we are glad to learn that their feelings toward the Race are kindly, but neither they nor the manufacturers of the soap referred to have been misrepresented by us, as the letter which we reproduced was a copy of the one used by the magazine Agent. The P. S. Co. letter follows: August 13, 1916. Publishers of the Chicago Defender, Ill. Gentlemen: Following up our letter of August 18 we wish to make the following statement as strong as we possibly can: Both the Poster Selling Company and the Pammy (manufacturers of Palmolive Soap) have only the kindest feelings in the world toward the Colored Company, and we have no question to imagine that anybody connected with either of these two companies would use such a phrase as "Nigger is Nigger." The word "Nigger" is repulsive to us, and when we saw it in type in the book, it came as sort of a shock. There is just one more thing: When you write the article explaining that there are two parties who have been misrepresented, namely: the Poster Selling Company and the B. J. Johnson Soap. We feel sure that you feel as we do, and that you are just as anxious about the situation straightened out as quickly and as thoroughly as possible. We have no authority to speak for the Pammy Soap, but inasmuch as it was our letter that was reproduced we veni- tured a suggestion that you make your explanation as plausible so that it will include the B. J. Johnson Soap Com- pany as well as the Poster Selling Company. Yours very truly. POSTER SELLING COMPANY. By S. N. Hollday, Treasurer.

If any argument were needed, it is that he is the candidate people greater recognition than any back track on the questions of his men. Please consideration of all the candidate letter we are forced to the conviction of O. Lowden. The Logical Man—Lowden THE GREAT MAJORITY of the Race voters of the State of Illinois and the nation are Republicans because they believe that Republican policies and principles tend to the promotion of their safety, prosperity and happiness in a greater degree than do the principles and policies of the Democratic party. It is not only the duty of the citizen to use his ballot intelligently in general elections, but also in primary elections. The same degree of discretion should be exercised in selecting his choice for his party nomination as is used in selecting the political party that he will support. The candidate's personal character; his political associates; his previous record; his business career and, above all, his attitude upon the matter of human rights, should be the determining factors in guiding the Race voter in making his choice as between candidates for the same office in his own party. There can be no question that when submitted to such a test, Frank O. Lowden stands head and shoulders above all his competitors in the race for the Republican nomination for Governor. His past record; his present political affiliations; his business career—all tend to enlarging rather than restricting the opportunities and privileges as well as the political recognition given to our people. His opponents charge Mr. Lowden with being the candidate of Mayor William Hale Thompson. If any argument were needed to solidify the Colored vote in behalf of Lowden it is that he is the candidate of Mayor Thompson, who has given our people greater recognition than any Mayor Chicago ever had, and who takes no back track on the questions of human rights and equal and exact justice for all men. From a dispassionate consideration of all the candidates and all the facts connected with the matter we are forced to the conviction that it is our solemn duty to support Frank O. Lowden. Making Good RITICISM may be more helpful for stirs up your enthusiasm or strengeness is helpful. So many people give in. In this old world of ours the quilt, but it can be made pleasant so no were horn with the proverbal been. Most people rise by their those who wait; the best things them. The progress we have made in the store we could have done had we lived more on self and less on our walk in a crutch we are going to walk and have been successes if one-half devoted to REAL WORK. In excuse for us in the past, the do not pried it open a good bit, tomorrow wider and wider because we are put healthy man or woman who is or is no excuse whatever for being a command for labor far exceeds the than ever before. Even comm a half per day, while the skilled the probabilities are that this condition war, which is the direct cause of months or a year, the countries to come every available person to cut off and with an ever increase in assets and factories will be taxed to coin. Fortunately capital is calling have heard had they whispered, a real consciousness that it is our go have been waiting to avail ourselves depends largely on our own action to fight in the North as strong as different nature. The South has a desire to make good. The North, achieved the accusation. There are time for making excuses has past some footing as those of other races going to fall by the wayside; it was having the vision will make good AN ENEMY'S CRITICISM may be more helpful to you than a friend's praise. Whatever stirs up your enthusiasm or strengthens your determination to "make good" is helpful. So many people give up just when they are in sight of the goal. In this old world of ours the quitter has little consideration. All work is hard, but it can be made pleasant or distasteful as we elect. The people who were born with the proverbial spoon in their mouth are few and far between. Most people rise by their own individual effort. Things don't come to those who wait; the best things are picked off by the hustlers who go after them. We are proud of the progress we have made in the past fifty years, and yet there is so much more we could have done had we not been "soft-shelled." That is, if we had relied more on self and less on our friends of a different hue. As long as we lean on a crutch we are going to walk lame. Thousands of hopeless failures would have been successes if one-half the energy devoted to complaining had been devoted to REAL WORK. In all justice it may be said there was some excuse for us in the past, the door of opportunity was closed; today we have pried it open a good bit, tomorrow and all forthcoming tomorrowts it will open wider and wider because we are pushing. An able-bodied, healthy man or woman who is out of work today and is willing to work has no excuse whatever for being idle. In every section of the country the demand for labor far exceeds the supply, and the wage in consequence is higher than ever before. Even common laborers are receiving as high as two and a half per day, while the skilled mechanic has no limit to his demands, and the probabilities are that this condition will obtain indefinitely. If the European war, which is the direct cause of our prosperity, should come to an end in six months or a year, the countries now engaged in battle would need fdr years to come every available person to help bring order out of chaos. With immigration cut off and with an ever increasing demand for American products our mills and factories will be taxed to capacity and every field of endeavor will boom. Fortunately capital is calling our labor through a megaphone; we could have heard had they whispered, and we are rallying to the call with the full consciousness that it is our golden opportunity, the opportunity that we have been waiting to avail ourselves of for years. What the future holds for us depends largely on our own actions. We are on trial, we have a prejudice to fight in the North as strong as the one in the South, though of a slightly different nature. The South has been telling the North that it just wasn't in us to make good. The North, never having had any experience, partially believed the accusation. There are many reasons why we MUST make good; the time for making excuses has past. We have demanded to be placed on the same footing as those of other races; we must paddle our own canoe. Some are going to fall by the wayside; it was ever so, but the great mass have the vision and having the vision will make good. Labor Unions THE LABOR ORGANIZATION they are standing in their own light of their unions, for he is and always force of this great country. By the organizations simply because other than a friend and ally, and the men behind the guns an add by the unions more keenly as the at the Colored workman's initial ent by the owners or is made new Have the records not shown as efficient and as reliable as their capital will continue to be dict SOME DAY THE LABOR ORGANIZATIONS are going to wake up to the fact that they are standing in their own light when they shut the Colored workman out of their unions, for he is and always will be an important factor in the working force of this great country. By denying him admission to their different trade organizations simply because of prejudice they are making an enemy rather than a friend and ally, and they are giving the moneyed interests and the men behind the guns an added power, the strength of which will be felt by the unions more keenly as the years roll on. Let us grant that the Colored workman's initial entrance into shop or factory is an experiment by the owners or is made necessary by the striking of their white employees. Have the records not shown that they have when given a chance proven as efficient and as reliable as their white brothers? Does it seem reasonable that capital will continue to be dictated to by labor's oft unreasonable demands? Will they not turn to the Colored workmen in whom they have depended in a measure in the past and on whom they can depend more in the future? The Colored man is making ready, he sees the handwriting on the wall, knows his inning is about to come, and knows that the very prejudice that the unions are displaying will be the cause of their downfall. With him it is simply a matter of self-preservation, he must work and if the unions insist not shutting him out of their calculations there is nothing left for him to do CHICAGO DEFENDER Fern Holly Remember, son and daughter, that your dear old mother and father have sacrificed many necessities in life that you might be able to go away to school and gain an education to be fit to wage life's battle against the world. Your appreciation can be easily shown by hard study, good deportment, and as a reward for your carminess you will meet with success, which will gladden the hearts of the "folks at home." Keep ever before you your MOTHER and FATHER. but all himself with capital. He is not a strike-breaker and should not be considered so. In fact, he is a firm believer in the adage that in union strength, and if permitted would make as loyal a member as could be found in any union. Recently the employees of the Chattanooga (Tenn.) Railway and Light Company organized a street car union, and it was proposed to eliminate the Colored linemen. The Business League took the matter up and perhaps with the pressure they can bring to bear, this objectionable clause will be stricken out. The following letter which appeared in the Times expresses the general sentiment: "It seems that there might be some way of adjusting matters without doing injustice to these men, who have been faithful employees of the car company for a number of years, and have apparently been giving satisfaction. Too, quite a large percentage of the patrons of the railway are Colored, and are placed on the same footing as other races, being required to 'pay as they enter.' Now if a Negro laborer who is at work and his labor is acceptable to the car company is to be thrown out of employment to gratify the whims of so-called organized labor, the thing that perplexes us is what in the world is going to take place in the near future, when unionism assumes greater proportions? LYNCHING—A S By DAVID W. THOMAS, Professor Editor's Note—Mr. Thomas is w in the Little Rock, Ark., Gazette, a The press of Arkansas recently published a letter purporting to come from a committee of the mob lynchings the general Stuttgart committee seek to justify their action. In view of this and of other lynchings in this and other states, the following facts might be of interest to the Stuttgart committee and to the people of the state. The records of lynchings for 1914, compiled by three different agencies, give the total number for the year as 52, 54. "The pioneer work and the hardest task was performed when Negro labor built the car lines at a nominal pay and with a record which includes no strikes or any dissension whatever. Does he deserve this kind of treatment to satisfy organized labor, which is doing more harm in this country than any other factor?" There is absolutely no sane reason why the Colored workman should be denied entrance to any union save prejudice, and the unions will realize their mistake, we are afraid, only after their power has vanished. RE-ELECT MAJ B. B. JACKSON RE SCARCE and good men in pardon and that by their votes they have played efficient, one who zealously guards only are willing to deem it a privilege each term.

Jackson nipped in the bud of citizens, and should not enter into the situation he measure up to the job? If Maj. Mal. Jackson has measured up to any citizen to cast their vote for him or to see that he is re-elected. We reckon a man in every sense of the word. GOOD MEN ARE SCARCE and good men in politics still more scares. When the citizens find that by their votes they have placed in office a man clean cut, honorable and efficient, who zealously guards the interests of his constituents, they not only are willing but deem it a privilege to return him to office of each term. Such a man we have in our state legislature in the person of Muj. Robert R. Jackson—fighting Bob, as his friends are wont to sometimes call him. Chicago people are familiar with the splendid record made by Muj. Jackson during his initial two years in Springfield, and feel assured that with the valuable experience gained in that time his succeeding terms in office will bring to us many more good things. It is highly essential that we have a representative in the office to do with the making of laws governing all people, as was evidenced when Muj. Jackson nipped in the bud a bill which would seriously affect our rights as citizens. The personal end should not enter into the situation at all. Whether we like this man or that man who is running for office matters little. The point to be considered is, does he measure up to the job? If not, is he the best available timber? Fortunately, Muj. Jackson has measured up to the standard, so it is the best candidate for the office. Every honestable means in their power to see that he is re-elected. We reconst, good men are scarce, and Muj. R. R. Jackson is a man in every sense of the word. --- CHARLES A.

Mr. Litzinger was born and raised on the South Side of Chicago, and has always been known as a loyal friend of our people. He is a thorough business man and his connection, as president, with the Medical Aid Society, which carries thousands of our people on its books, has brought him into personal contact with most of the residents of this district. He thoroughly enjoys the high position he currently commands and is used by personal effort in deciding. He is a family man and lives on the South Side with his wife and two beautiful children.

Since the demand for labor became so acute in the north that emissaries were sent below the Mason and Dixon lines to gather up the funds, the men were not at all likely to be able to get the money. As sleepy as they are, they have awakened to the fact that they are to be left high and dry if some measures looking to the retention of their laborers and skilled mechanics are not immediately taken. Employment agencies working in the districts are likely populated by Colored men, who are most likely to be in the family. As is a regular bonanza for them, people are most likely to be in the family. As is a regular bonanza for them, one road building company paying as high as $5 for each laborer which could be secured by the agent. Whole communities have been depopulated. Recently, agents of the Pennsylvania railroad took out of Savannah, Ga., 1,000 Colored laborers, who were in the乡, who were in the乡, who were in the county. More than 2,000 of their friends were at the train to see them off, and now the city fathers are aroused over the exodus and are trying to devise means to stop. Other railroads in the north are doing the same thing, offering much higher wages than are usually paid in the south. Grave abrum is expressed over the results which are likely to follow in the way of a serious shortage in certain sections, and the strict enforcement of laws and ordinances restricting the activities of labor agents and the enactment of still more stringent regulations are being conducted. North Carolina has a law which not only restricts the activities of the labor agent, but requires the payment of a license fee so high that it precludes his working openly in the state. Yet he works there quietly, and so long as he continues to work in the state he is not forced to work in the state. The state of the state is not enforced. It may be surprising to some to learn that our men are now at work for the Chicago surface lines, making repairs, laying track, etc., and we trust the day is not far distant when they will be made. The present business is not the same as the future business is. The most sensible way to come consideration in the way of employment. The south is placed in a peculiar position. They have harped for years that the Negro was worthless, that his presence in such vast numbers was as a yoke about their neck that kept them from progressing, and all sorts of dire things were going on. They were not afraid to receive it in a large measure. Now, when the north is willing to relieve them of their burden, they strenuously object and want to carry this load (?) without interference. In the meantime, WE, the interested parties, have something to say about the matter, and have decided to scatter to the four corners of the earth in search of a place to show them a man to be mistreated for a hat. In the light of the increased number of lynchings, we could silently blight and no feeling "that the south knows best how to care for the Negro," as the papers from that section delight in saying. We have astounded the world by the progress made in the past fifty years. Give us another fifty years without a handicap and we will paralyze the world. SCHOOL OPENED LAST TUESDAY, but there was little accomplished, owing to the fact that teacher and scholar alike had to show a certificate of health before being admitted to doctor's offices has not been seen in many days. The poor medics worked all the time and had nothing at night to show for it but a fond recollection of "Thank you." GOVERNOR FRANK O. LOWDEN doesn't sound half bad and it's up to us to make it sound real good and true. Editor's Note—Mr. Thomas is white and writes the following articles in the Little Rock, Ark., Gazette, a white paper. The press of Arkansas recently published a letter purporting to come from a committee of the mob which lynched the negro at Stuttentown. Of course, they seek to justify their action. In view of this and of other lynchings in this and other states, the following facts ought to committee and to the people of the state. The records of lynchings for 1914, compiled by three different agencies, give the total number for the year as 52, 51 and 74, the authority for these items of interrogation, backing the English Tribute and the Crisis respectively. The conflicting reports cannot be harmonized, but to avoid any possibility of exaggeration we may employ the most conservative of these for analysis. The following facts: Number lynchied—negro at 46, female at 3; white male 3; total 52. Our courts sometimes are slow there are exasperating delays but lynchers the accused impress courts? Why not begin on judges, years and juries? Can we not make courts as good as those of the King people whose descendants are are can never count the English courts till they are backed by an equal rest for the law on the part of the per-As there are no "divishing reasons" violating my number sign "Witness for the proper and uning enforcement of the law" include the suppression of lynching. DAVID W. THOMAS, Professor of History Crimes charged against victims: Murder, 13, robbery and murder 6, robbery and attempted murder 1, suspected murder 1, rape 6, attempted rape 1, killing an officer 5, wounding other 1, murderous assault 3, alleged murderers assault 1, biting of a man's chin 1, accused of wounding a person 1, killing person 1, quarrel 4, beating child to death 1, trying to force way into woman's room 1, stealing shoes 1, stealing mules 1, setting fire to burn 2, assisting a man to escape who had wounded another 1, being found under a house 1. The three women were lynched for the following reasons: One, 17 years old, for killing a man who it was reported had raped her; the second was accused of beating a child to death; the third was accused of helping her husband set fire to a barn. In the last case, both husband and wife were lynched in the presence of their 4-year-old child. It should be especially noted that of the 52 persons lynched, only 7, 2, white and 5 negroes, or 13 per cent, were charged with the crime against womanhood. This shows clearly how far and how quickly the habit has spread beyond the bounds set by those who first resorted to lynching as a remedy. According to states, the lynchings were distributed as follows: Alabama 2, Arkansas 4, Florida 4, Georgia 2, Mississippi 1, Missouri 1, New Mexico 1, North Dakota 1, North Carolina 1, Oklahoma 3, Oregon 1, South Carolina 4, Tennessee 1 and Texas 6. The same agency which reported 5 lynchings for 1914, makes the following report: 2 groat male, 5 female, 3 white male, 4 female, 9 total 68. This is an increase of 16, or 30 per cent, over the total number for 1914. In other states, the lynchings for 1915 were distributed as follows: Alabama 9, Arkansas 5, Florida 5, Georgia 18, Illinois 1, Kentucky 5, Louisiana 2, Mississippi 1, Missouri 2, Ohio 1, Oklahoma 3, South Carolina 1, Tennessee 2. It is worthy of note that in at least four cases it later was discovered that the victims of the mob were innocent of the crime which they were accused. Others self-sacrifice "Yours for the proper and unfailing enforcement of the law." On the contrary I would say to this committee. If the law were enforced you now be on the way to the 'gallows.' You are undermining all respect for the law. One of the dearest rights to every American is the right of trial in the case of a victim of this right. In doing this you have paved the way to violation of other rights. Where will it end? The above figures show that lynching is not a doubt, for personal spite or vengeance. Lynching is a serious social disease and you are helping to spread it. Last week six negroes were lynched, and two more were killed by the legislature of Georgia, where lynchings are most common, has refused the most disapproval of allowing the governor to remove sheriffs in counties where lynching is practiced. You say that the victim was charged with a helminous crime. True, and if guilty, he deserved the extreme penalty of the law. You say that he confessed to the crime, and people who believe in the death penalty must admit that he deserved to die. But in civilized countries only one authority is allowed to kill, the state. You lynch both the victim and the law. Why have you done this? Perhaps you will say, because of the law's delay, to the courts there not only could have lynched both the victim or even have failed of conviction. You also claim to have hanged him "in as humane a manner as possible." His death, you claim, was much more "humane" than that of Sir Roger Casey, recently executed in England for treason. But let us compare your action with that of the English people. Treason is a fearful crime, yet they left it to the NO CASES ARE DIAGNOSED AND NO PRESCRIPTIONS GIVEN IN THESE WEEKLY ARTICLES RENT PAYERS! PETER H. School and Diseases of Children The public schools of this great city opened Tuesday, Sept. 5. Children to the number of over 300,000 were brought together in the various school buildings. With the coming together of this large number of children from the various parts of the city, with the crowding of them in the school buildings, on the playgrounds, on the street cars, we are aware of the diseases that affect school children. There will be an increase of measles, scarlet fever, diphtheria, wheeeping cough, sore mouths, bad colds, sore throats and various contagious and infectious diseases. INFANTILE PARALYSIS—A contagious and infectious disease affecting young children from 1 to 6 years old—and sometimes older children, even adult individuals—will be largely increased. If we are not careful, and if we do not cooperate with the health department and all other authorities who are attempting to prevent disease and conserve the health and life of our children, Infantile paralysis is a general condition that affects the spinal cord and the cerebral axes. We have no serum; we have no counts. So far as I have seen, there was no talk of lynching. There was little delay in the courts and there was punishment. Our courts sometimes are slow and there are紧急 delays, but will lynch the accused improve the courts? Why not begin on Judges, lawyers and jurists? Can we not make our courts as good as those of the English people? Do we have the same whose courts we borrowed? Yet they can never equal the English courts until they are backed by an equal respect for the law on the part of the people. Yet there are "Nicholas persons" for withholding my name, I sign "Yours for the proper and unfailing enforcement of the law" including the suppression of lynching. DAVID J. THOMAS. Professor of History. Fayetteville, Ark. GRACE LYCEUM OPENS; MAJ, JACKSON SPEAKER GRACE LYCEUM OPENS; MAJ, JACKSON SPEAKER 1 Major R. R. Jackson, known as "Fighting Bob," was the principal speaker on last Sunday afternoon at the opening of the Grace Presbyterian Lycæum. He was introduced by Lawyer Albert George Just right from the Mexican border, the major was briefed of information about the Grace Presbyterian Lycæum commissioned officer. He emphasized the fact that the "stories" read in the daily newspapers were false, particularly about the treatment of the men. He said they had been treated one and not the other, complained registered against the government, pointed out that where there was trouble it was caused by those who disobeyed orders and said that the four men were not fault. The trouble that was reported about the street cars was caused by the white soldiers and not members of the Eighth. He said that the disobeying hikers and appearance three times at Fort Som Houston before Gen. Funston never reached the daily papers, but the ugly reports always took big headlines, but the "boys" withstood it silently. He paid them a high tribute for their loyalty to the flag and said they had done their duty, answered the country's call, the boys were ready to come to their wives, children, sweethearts and friends. Messrs. Bryant and Alfon sang a duet that completely captivated the audiences of the Thayer, Miss Rowley, a violinist, made a decided bit and well pleased the audience with two numbers, Miss Lovelace Birmingham, Ala., a Fish graduate, sang two numbers charmingly and pleasingly. Miss Lovelace will be the Grace Lyceum will be a "hummer" throughout the season. Miss Berths Monkey and Miss Maude J. Roberts and their co-actors enact great programmes on each occasion. Schulds to follow each programme. medicine or remedy that we can give that will ward off this terrible disease. As was mentioned in these columns some time ago, the best methods of prevention are hygiene and sanitation. In hygiene and sanitation we should place our greatest hopes for the prevention or spread of this disease. At present we have over eighty cases in the United States of a disease that you do not have to have yourself in order to give it to your neighbor. Remember that you can become a carrier by coming in contact with someone who has a disease, using some room or place where infestation paralysis is prevalent. We are going to advise you again to look very carefully after all respiratory diseases of your children—all bad colds, sore throat, catarrhine throat, and pneumonia—matter promptly attended to; never neglect or overlook them, because the germ of infantile paralysis is often distributed through nose, throat and mouth. In other words, if you keep your child or children's nose clean, their mouths clean, look after and see that prompt attention is given to those sore throat, you will go a long way in preventing this terrible disease among your children. The diagnosis is very difficult before the paralytic stage. Few parents deal with this disease, are able to diagnose infantile paralysis before the paralytic stage. Therefore, you should not fool with great-grandmothers and granddaughters, friends and neighbors as to your child's condition, but call in medical service early, and if you are not able to pass the medical department for examination and diagnosis in the case. Suspicious Symptoms When your child becomes irritated cross and hard to manage, feverish, it of appetite, running at the nose and out of breath, it may also begin to play with other children, if your child is vomiting, diarrhea and weakness, heat ache and sluggishness, then, too, if the tenderness of the muscles of the arm and leg in the knees is present, the remedies, do not consult important neighbors, because your child is in a serious condition—there is danger in walking, immediately put your child to bed. Can you take your child to bed? The child's temperature, examine for tenderness and irritability of muscles of the arms and legs, tenderness about the spine, back of the neck; see that he keeps up a careful watchful waiting. Do not rub your child's tender arm or legs. Do not apply antiph众etine or anything else, but the child's body is always resting. Any rubbing,应用性摩擦, any physical remedies may have some complete paralysis of your body. Late on, in the course of the disease, where there is facility of muscles, degeneration of muscles, under the direction of your doctor, massage and electricity and the use of various stimulants to the muscles may be advised, but not during the early stage of this disease. But you can be of more service to your children, the people of the community, in the manner of prevention and prevention. And this can be best done by carrying out the sanitary and hygienie precautions just mentioned, in the careful watching of your children and by keeping them to themselves as much as possible. Again, we must tell you not to allow your children to visit you only with strenuous children. Again, we advise you not to take your child or children on shopping in the congested parts of the city, nor on the street cars any more than you can prevent. Keep your children out of the "movies" until this epidemic is over, for the reason that the vast majority of the victims of this disease die or are crippled—handicapped for life. You can do a great deal more in preventing—in co-operating with your doctor and in the department—than in curing this disease. People who have children and who care for them, should write to the health department to be placed on the mailing list for the Weekly Bulletin and various pamphlets for the parents of patients in other diseases of children. Please spend a little time at home reading, and thus learn how to prevent disease, and read of living every night to ensure that your children to the various contagions.
