Famous Actor's Skull Crushed When He Accidently Falls
"Billy" Johnson, the noted comedian and stage director, met a tragic death Tuesday morning at 8:15 by falling from a banister in the rear of 3512 south State street, fracturing his skull, causing concussion of the brain, and died an hour later at Provident hospital. The banister upon which he sat was twenty-five feet from a cement pavement and according to Dr. "Burt" Anderson, who was called immediately, the comedian while apparently asleep or nodding lost his balance and met death in this manner.
Other reports are that he had been intoxicated and while sitting on the banister fell backward. The rear of his head was burst open and pools of blood surrounded the body where he fell. Dr. Anderson called the ambulance and had him moved immediately to the hospital. He never regained consciousness. He suffered a terrific hemorrhage.
Ben Summers, a lifelong friend, said he saw him as late as 7 o'clock in the morning and urged him to go home, but could not persuade him to do so, although he had been out all of the night before.
He was recognized by the theatrical magnates as brilliant and brainy. Just the day before he died he had signed a variety wheel to straighten out some shaves and had a ticket in his pocket when found dead to go to Milwaukee for this purpose. He knew the show business from every angle, but his forte was on the stage. Dress rehearsals were never considered suitable for staging and rehearsing big productions he was in a class by himself. Many of the famous song hits of the past came from the facile pen of Johnson. His interest activity was with Brown in New York and Brown and Billy Johnson of Leeds.
Mr. Johnson was married and had a wife, two boys and two girls, one of the latter being the oldest, age 12, and was in school. The wife did not learn of her husband's death until late Tuesday night when the body was taken to King & Hill's, undertaking establishment, 3694 State street, where the inquest was held Thursday. He married Miss May Winder, Syracuse, N. Y., and they had lived happily together since their marriage union more than fifteen years ago. He was near the age of 50, well preserved.
His Professional Career
Mr. Johnson was born at Charleston, S. C., the home of his late friend, Sum Corker, Jr., who met a similar death a few years ago at New York City. It was his splendid silver tenor voice while a waiter that attracted attention at Saratoga in a waiters' minstrel. He soon gained a reputation as a singer and secured an engagement with Hicks and Sawyer's Minstrel. He was a decided success and, like most players, drifted west, working in shows and museums. The first and most important engagement was with the Bookmaker, which he performed in this company were such noted stars as the Mallery Brothers, Hattle Meltnto-King, Mme. Flower, Tom McIntosh, Fred Pifer and the Hyer Sisters. It was this show that Mr. Johnson exhibited his talent, which he then went with Black Patti and was a howling success with her company.
Co-operates With Cole
Mr. Johnson co-operated with the late Bob Cole; the bee was then buzzing around his head to be a real star. The bee this country thinned its seen. The band the "Trip to Coontown," the greatest upregulation of players seen on the American stage. Johnson, as a straight man, was the best of the trump and from that day until this Cole had not a near competitor. This show was a great success. It used the way or the others that followed. It did it well to make funetable and bewitching routine music of any of the big productions. Later Billy Johnson confined himself to writeness. Mr. Cole formed a team with Rosamond Johnson, who resides in New York City.

Jacksonville, Fl., Sept. 15—Isaiah Williams, a citizen of this city, who is a poor, hard working laborer holding splendid testimonials of his honest and industrious character, has been made the victim of vicious Race hatred by being in prison for over four months on the mound in the city, depriving a free man of his liberty. The sad story is as follows: Williams, who is somewhat handicapped because of his limited school education, is nevertheless, having been sitting in the mounting of some heavy calorie guns at Fort St. Philip, La., during the Spanish-American war, Williams conceived the idea of inventing a great weapon to succeed anything of its kind in the world.
He has worked faithfully for eleven years and in March of this year he wrote a letter to the University of application blanks to file for payment with. On receiving the blanks he found that he needed the assistance of a mechanical draftsman to make blue print drawings. He applied to Prof. J. A. Lankford, and after a tacit agreement the work was begun. The gun being of very unusual proportions, the drawings was found necessary to make a much larger number of the original drawings than Williams anticipated. He therefore had to prepare these as rapidly as possible. Having to work steadily for a living Williams was forced to utilize every opportunity he could secure to do his draw-
On April 1st Williams received his pay from his employer and, having a day or two of leisure, Williams, as had been one of his colleagues, empty box car on a near-by sliding and began to work on some of his drawings. Williams, being poor, had recourse to an old razor served for this difficult work. He used inferior paper and an old razor served for sharpening his carbon and pencils. It was durability one of these occupations that Williams had been. He had a road detective, who seized his entire outfit and carried him to the United States district attorney and charged him with the theft of stealing a government plan (of the gun). Falsely Charged With Theft
The district attorney is said to have ordered the man held and he proceeded to send all over the United States to find out if the plans belonged to the government. Williams, as cunning the turned Williams, enlisted in stealing the razor he used this as an excuse for

Virgil Bleibach, a former formers who is able to put over a ballad and her rendition of "Good Bye, Good Luck, God Bless You" was all that could be asked.

Copeland and Payton continued their success of the first half. German Brothers, in original song numbers, were a distinct hit, and the Gregory Troupe of Hooproilers were easily the best. The second half of week brings Irving C. Miller & Co. in two plays, first half "Rugtime"; second half, "The Song Shop."
The bill here this week is a good one and covers a wide variety of excellent entertainment. The acts being used are James, and Johnson, William Stowall and Dugge and Pugh, all of whom have been seen here before, but are using new

A great bill was presented here the first half of the week. In rotation the acts were as follows: Camille's Dogs, a group of a dozen of the cutest and best trained hounds ever seen here, offering many new canine features. Following them came the clever dog of the Be Neo, who put their stuff over in good shape. The sketch, "His Nobs," presented by Bertram, May & Co. has been seen here before, and made the usual favorable impression. It is a standard act. Montross and Allen used a novelty opening and put over some speedy dancing and a little bit of the usual act, "Holidays in Bixieland," proved to be all that has been claimed for it, and then some. Although it has been seen here before, it is one of the kind that can always stand a return. The act is

IRVING MILLER
Speaking from a real theatrical standpoint of class and entertainment next week at the Grand Theater will be a stand-out. Irving C. Miller and his big company begins a week engagement on Monday at that popular house, and the aggregation which opened in Philadelphia a year ago and which has played all over the Atlantic seaboard with a 15 weeks' run in Jacksonville and five big weeks in Washington, D. C., comes here intact. Two different vehicles will be used by the company during its stay, opening on Monday night with the great scream, "Mr. Ragtime," and changing on Thursday night to a big review called The Song Shop. Special scenery is used. It is covered by elaborate and no travelling set boast of having nearly as good a chorus. There are fourteen in the cast and each a star, covering the widest variety of talent. Esther Bigone is probably the star as she qualifies in everything to hold that honor. Her singing this year is far more than ever, and as an all-around performer who also equals, the comedy honors are divided between the Miller and Gus Butler. Others are Miss Trixie Butler, Lulu Whidly, Essie Whidly, Margaret Ricks, Georgia Wiggins, Rastus Calloway and Robert L. Perry. From start to finish, "Mr. Ragtime" is one of the funniest pieces ever presented on any stage. It is offered in lively song numbers and replete with lively song numbers and comedy. Dancing is featured and a tree seems to be assured the patrons of the Grand next week.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
"TheLittleGirl Next Door"
"Nothing More Monumentally Nonsensical Than Foolish Silence in Matters of Sex,"MinisterSays
"There is no blunder of the human race more monumentally nonsensical than the foolish and cowardly silence in matters of sex" is what the Rev. M. P. Boynton said in a sermon recently. "It is almost altogether due to this darkness and reticence that the foul creatures known as panders and white slavers have flourished. If ever a social attitude were utterly discredited, it is this old fashioned, false modesty that even now cries out against such an expose as that of "The Little Girl Next Door." Alderman Buck, who fought hard against the issuance of a permit to show this film in the city council, had an entirely different opinion anent the production, and demanded resolution before that body he charged for the play is "lewd, immoral and obscene," and that it "portrays riotous, disorderly and unlawful scenes."
"The picture is unspeakably disgusting," he said, "and its exhibition should not be permitted in any public places. The manner in which the permit for it was issued involves the whole question of whether we shall do away with censorship. Technically it is being shown without a permit, for none was issued for it in conformity with the ordinance governing the subject." Major M. C. L. Funkhouser's discharge by Chief of Police Healey was made in consideration of a permit for the showing of this film dramatization of the white-skinned raffle. Major Funkhouser had stated to four persons that he would under no consideration permit the film to be shown. Afterward he said that he favored issuing the permit, although he thought that the picture would have a contaminating influence
Virginia Brooks Washburn said every father, every mother, should see it in order that they might recognize the cunning pitfalls that are set for the feet of the young girls of a great city. The picture presents the problem of the girl adrift in a manner so striking and effective as to make it of inestimable value in the campaign for morality. Only those of us who have been in the thick of the battle against the white slavers can appreciate how great a service to the nation has been rendered by the producers of this picture.
The people of this district will have an opportunity to judge for themselves as to who is right and who is wrong in this controversy, as "The Little Girl Next Door" has been hooked by the States Theater for the three days, Saturday, Sunday, and Monday, Sept. 16, 17 and 18, but it has no confidence; Never in the history of film dom have the producers handled the subject so indiscriminately, going into the slimy details of deprivacy and showing "close-ups" on conditions in a manner never before attempted. As the Rev. E. L. Williams of Grace M. E. Church said, in reference to this film, "If you reflect a ray of light into a rat-tude you spot it for rat purposes. Hits the cradle and you'll not have to fight him." The permit for this feature is sued by special action of the city council and no one under 21 years of age will be admitted.
THE REASON
I have been asked hundreds of times why I had let the newspaper business cheat some real job out of a broad-shouldered, able-bodied man like me. I haven't apologies to offer, but I worked for a Hebrew once for three years steady, packing cases in a stockroom, asked for a raise in salary, plumbing, working in work and long hours. He said, "My friend, don't work at all, hardly. Have a look: in each year there are ..... 365 days You spend sixteen hours of each
And leaves but......
Lunch hours amount to......

POLITICAL CLUB URGES
PAYMENT OF TAXES
CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE
This club is composed of men who have the Race at heart and trying to arouse men to join the club and hamlet to see the importance of pay, respect and camaraderie to the presachers and older men who have the experience of the young men away from the meetings, only to only be in money-making scheme, rigged up with Oxy. Or they say the club wants the men to play the "white people can carry them to War."
About Going to War
Twelve years ago the State of Georgia disbanded her Negro soldiers, as it is disbanding her African American soldiers in this state. Even the boys are not allowed to form companies and carry wooden guns. The boys are not known it that they do not want the Colored soldiers, they are afraid of the Colored soldiers, they are afraid of the Colored soldiers to pay their taxes, as they know they must exercise their legal privilege and be free.
Not a Money Scheme
The object of this club, as explained at the meeting is to get men qualified so that they can meet the needs of this tax money to pay the teachers who are preparing the coming reunions meetings. A. B. Phillips deserves great credit for the effort he made in getting two times the number he had to register; one among the number he had to register; two five times, but at last succeeded in right test. There are thousands of students of of school who would neglect this important duty and privilege if it were just out of school. The effort that is put forth by this political club.
Preachers Misleading
Those who discouraged the movement of the club are not friends of the Race as some suppose. They are blind leaders and sooner or later the Race will wake up and demand intelligent leaders. There is a class of preachers who glory in their ignorance, because, as they say, "They threaten for the people with destruction if they are led by the enlightened ministers, declaring that no educated people go to heaven. Another class of the ignorant preachers, put D. D. behind their name, and do not even know what it stands for, and it is high time for the Race to demand that these preachers attend school and be trained. They should not be allowed to use these titles until they have gone through such colleges as Atlanta, Yale, Harvard or some other recognized schools and earn these titles by hard study. Christ may have called ignorant men, as they say, but we know that he trained them before he sent them out to teach the people. The Race will be no better as long as they allow ignorant ministers to lead them. They are the cause of the Race today, accepting the Jim Crow cars in the south.
Young men pay your tax and ba s and buy your property. You are morant men of the Race misled you to neglect this important duty. The Young men of the Race misled you trying to help you be a good citizen.

Precurring an empty bottle, he stood in the vestibule of his office, where he saw sorrowfully drew a passenger's check from a writer, his name, date and address on a gave it one last look, kissed it goodbye, gave it one last look, and summoned all his courage, dushed bottle upon the runged wings. Brushie the blinding tears from his face, he kissed the runged wings, the buffet car and proceeded to forget the tragedy of the deaths. A few days and night, Gray received the follower from Fulton, Iowa, dated Aug. 31:
Dear Sir: While on a fishing trip up the Mississippi last week I found a bottle with a dress in it. Thought I would send to you for curiosity. Trusting you will appreciate the spirit with which I send this, I am, your friend. A. F. FLICK

March in Hot Sun
The second day of our march was a very hot one, and the semi-tropical notwithstanding down on us mercilessly. Notwithstanding the hardiness admirably, being hardened by two months of practice marches in and around San Antonio. Upon arriving in San Antonio the regiment marched at attention in quick time clear to the camp. The boys marched from a suburb called Beacon Hill to the fort, a distance of about 10 miles. The regiment arrived in camp Wilson on Saturday, in the ahead of schedule. The boys are more than glad to get back once more to a permanent camp. Their pyramidal wall brass beds after having spent two weeks under "dog tents," sleeping on the mother earth. The boys had all of the things they needed to bath, wash, and rest, making dress parade in the evening at 5 p. m.
Labor Day a Holiday
Today being Sunday, we have another day of rest and most fortunately to command this division, Gen. Cameron commanding this division, deciphering tomorrow a holiday also, and we are excused from all duty. We are "gobble all" all news beginning to the great railroad, and we are current with regard to what is to be done with us. The First Illinois has been packed and ready, the Second is packed and ready to enthrall the boys of the Seventh and the Eighth are anxious to know where and when we are going anywhere if we only know Suspense and false rumors are very disconcerting. But one thing I will say, we are soldiering in every sense of the word, and I deny anyone to say we are not.
Big Scare
A very peculiar thing happened out as Leon Springs on the night of Aug. 16, 1944, when he came to the title, the camp lay in a valley surrounded on all sides by high hills. With the exception of two saloons and a lake, there was no human habitation within twenty miles. Imagine the surroundings of a bright light suddenly spring up on the summit of one of the highest and nearest hills. As we had traversed the hill, we noticed a bright light suddenly spring up on the summit of one of the highest and nearest hills. As we had traversed the hill, we noticed a tactical march we know that there was no one up there to make that light. Some of the more suspicious individuals came to the Luntern. Some thought it was a roaming band of Villistas, but most of us were up a tree, so to speak, to what
Call for Volunteers
Company C. long since noted for its vital role in themselves and for themselves the causes and char-
actor of the mysterious light. A call for volunteers was made, to which the members of Company C readily responded. Those who answered the call were as follows: First Sergeant Harry L. Allen, Sergt. Joseph Thomas, Sergt. Walter Hilfner, Sergt. Silas Lane, Sergt. Edgar Armit, Sergt. Elmer Myers, Sergt. Garland Crabtree, Sergt. Samuel Motley, Corp. Thomas Amos, Corp. David Tryan, Corp. Boyd Raleffie, Corp. H. W. Templeman, Corp. P. Hudlin, Corp. Gibson, Corp. Donald Hawkins, Corp. A. Yancy, Corp. Frank White, Corp. Ray Wheeler, Privates Felix Crockett, Andrew Gillan, Boston Wheeler, Charles Porter, Robert Helm, Emery Banks, A. Carter, Jonah Novells.
This detachment led by their "doughty" first sergeant, Harry L. Allen, armed to the teeth, plowed through the jungle, which was known to be infested with rattlesnakes and poisonous insects, in quest of the mysterious light. After travelling three miles of woods and climbing a hill of no little height, in the darkness, they discovered the light to be a huge,
Find Only a Bonfire
Upon investigating further they were unable to find any trace of any one who might have stared at the fire and its origin is unknown. They have a chauce of rocks to serve as a landmark to verify the fact that they had been there. The men in said detachment have returned to camp and have all been recommended for a "tin cross" for bravery. The writer of this article, in his book *The Army of the Rockies* and George Truehart of Headquarters Co. after returning from a two-mile jaunt through the woods to a saloon, where they and partaken of a few "kite" experiments "exciting" experience with an armadillo.
Armadillo Captured
We jumped Mr. Armadillo up in the woods and got him cornered as he ran through my legs. I grabbed him by his arm and got him to sit down. I slippery he succeeded in getting away and outrun us to his hole. We did not have sense enough to drown him out, so we had to give him up. We thought back to how he had been back to camp. Some headwork. The boys in Company B succeeded in capturing two of them. They make very hard to catch an ants. Some subsist on an ants. I was very anxious to obtain one for that reason, as I slept on an ants' nest every night, and I must have an ants are not very agreeable bedfellows, and are too familiar on short acquaintance.
Private Jonaal Novels of Co. C captured a live rattlesnake of the Black Dwarf, and a black Lept. Arthur Jones of his company. The boys were bringing so many different kinds of varmints into camp that the colonel had to issue an order prohibitively. He would have soon been filled with them.
Chavis in "D" Company
Captain Pineckney does not wear that tired, worried look any more since he joined the Army in 1916, the person of Lloyd, Rob. R. Chavks. Sergio Stewart is the same good fellow that he has always been, and is the idol of all his friends. He is a soldier aside from being a little homeschooler in his private Elwood Steggle sends best regards to his friends in Evanston and St. Louis. He is a poral Alford Corbett, Privates Charles Corbett, Eugene Wheeler and Sergent Levy Tennant sends regards to their friends. Cook James Clemons is very homekeeper and kisses his wife's picture every time someone sings "When I Leave the World" to him. He thinks he is doing well, just look at the picture which he sent to his wife, of the boys send regards to Corporal John, who is in Chicago doing recruiting services.
Long for State Street
We do not know when we shall return, but we hope soon, as we are all sweethearted, and lust but not least, dear Old Street street. Corp. David R. Twine of Co. C made the highest average in the biking competition last year to get range. His average was 44% across the range, the possible being 50. It will be remembered that Corp. Twine won twice in 1914. Capt. James Smith of Co. C awarded a prize to Corp. Twine for bringing the beacon home.

Both Races Oppose Washington Negroes Plea for Separate Conventions of the Spanish-American War Veterans
Liberty is the soul of civilization—it is the height of republicanism—it is the most fragrant, refreshing and exhilarating of the elements that permeate the atmosphere of a common democracy.
Liberty is the most exalted of the great principles of American idealism and is preserved by a formidable circle of giant mortars that mount the works of her coastwise defenses, and these reinforced by an army of patriots one hundred million strong. Liberty is the coveted right that has agitated the populace of the world for centuries upon centuries and for which inestimable prices have been paid with oceans of human blood. And he who seeks less than liberty strikes down the monuments which stand upon the bodies of our forefathers, exposes himself to the ridicule and contempt of his fellow man and ruthlessly abuses the standard of civilization attained by years of ceaseless endeavor. Moreover, he violates the sacred laws of God and the constitutional rights of American

ANSWERS
Boan Hedd. N. C.
Reply—Miss Lott: If the scenarios you had returned compared at all with the one you sent in your letter it was a wonder you ever got them back. I referred to my enquiries and the one marked on your returned MM's are in the scenario code, the "R" meaning rotten, "P" meaning punk and "F" meaning fierce. This "Becky" story is a peach. It goes to show that the fire is not after all and he sure heaped coals of fire on the head of the girl's fa-
citizenship.
At the thirteenth national convention of the Ladies' Auxiliary, United Spanish War Veterans, held in the red room of the Hotel LaSalle Sept. 3 to 7, inclusive, the dove of peace floated o'er the sessions each day until near the conclusion of the last day's proceedings, when a door was opened in the form of a resolution that drew the soldiers to shelter. The United Spanish War Veterans and Ladies' Auxiliary are national organizations subdivided into departments, each state where the number of members is sufficient to warrant, complying a department. There are also the Ladies' Auxiliary, the lumbum set apart for those without state affiliations and for race Veterans, whose membership is not accepted in their respective states. It is from the Columbia that Race members sent a resolution to the national convention to place them in the division, set them have their own convention and national officers. Immediately after the reading of the resolution the "Tanner" delegation got busy. Mrs. W. H. Montgomery, president, obtained the floor and started the fight that resulted in the victory she obtained. She was ably assisted by her resignation. Ellisa Johnson, wife of Lief Col. Johnson of the Eighth regiment, and friends of the great state of Lincoln.
Would Suppress Lynchings
Another resolution was made to raise $10,000 to be used by the Race women of the organization in the prosecution of lynchers. The recent burning at the stake of Jesse Washington in Tico, Tex., was cited in the resolution. The issue is to be high appreciated by the liberty-loving, law-breaking people as a step to the higher civilization which must come with the growth and success of our nation. It is to be earnestly hoped that the framers of the Constitution are to be arouse themselves from their state of despair which breeds the germ of segregation, withdraw their resolution and fight for equal rights and establishment in departments of their respective states. The committee was first organized they also were placed in the department of the Potomac, but they knew they belonged in the department of Illinois, where they could meet their husbands, brothers and other relatives that were stubborn fighting that ended in victory for them. Let us all emulate the noble women of Tanner auxiliary. Fight for your rights.

The mother's trouble was what you classed as Springs was not the proper place to send her. She should have gone to West Baden. I remember the panic that's the year I turned my collar back and went on weeks instead of one. If I am not mistaken I tried the same thing with my B. V. D's. That was a long talk the heroe had. I think you had a brief training. The story teaches a bright train. The story teaches a bright lesson and warms against young girls getting around Greek joints without an escort.

My Dear Sir: I do not preface this epistle with an apology, assuming that you will consume any of your valuable time in giving the contents consideration. However, I will say that I am a graduate of the Baker Bean Conservatory of Music, harmony, execution of rhetorics, have also studied astronomy, higher mathematics and most of the applied sciences. I took a prominent part in athletics while at school and great strength. Was told that you would start a start. Would it be essential for me to come to Chicago? Please reply. ADOLPHUS PLIMPINGTON.
Reply—Friend Pimp: Am glad you wrote at this time. With your remarkable education and physical training considered, I would advise you to the Pullman Co., as I understand are hiring porters at present. With your classic education you should be able to make a fine bed and shine a mean shoe. Let me know whether upon this advice, as it would be a challenge, a vidual with a knob full of knowledge such as you have to waste his time around a sorry berg like Bosting.

CONCERT AT INSTITUTIONAL
A very appreciative audience attended the concert on Monday night at Institutional church under the direction of Leslie Bloise and Audrey Carey for the benefit of the Aquarium and the A. M. E. church. The programme, one of the best that has been heard here recently, was participated in by such well known artists as Hillert Stewart, Miss Edwink Downs, Mr. George E. Branan, Mrs Chuck Dickson-Hutchinson, Mrs Valerie Vatts, Mrs O. O'Grady, Hugh Buchanan, Mrs. Corrine Brown, Mrs. Lily Nelson and Harrison Emanuel. Each artist responded with an encore. The work and costume of Mme. Brown was very good and the singing of Mr. Hugh Buchanan was fine, and the music on the programme to sing a selection from the programme he sang his own number, Harry Burleigh, S. Coleridge Taylor, Will Marion Cook, Nathaniel Dett or James Rosamond Johnson were not heard from, and yet each one on the programme is an original piece of their own. This is the high-quality concert that has been given in Chicheng and such a mistake made, but it will not occur again—it must not.

BY MISTER FAN
Scholling's Park, Sunday Afternoon. It was flag day all night. Mr. Litzinger gave the championship flag to his friend, Mr. Andrew Foster, able and efficient manager of the American Giants, and after the donor had delivered a speech, which was warmly applauded by the crowd, the players, including Rube himself, were each given a fine belt with a pearl buckle on which was a solid gold emblem with the player's name engraved and "AMERICAN GIANTS—CHAMPIONS 1916." Besides the players, "Dink" Foster, son of Rube Foster, and Mr. Fan, who scribbles the national pinstripe for the WORLD'S GIANTEST American Giants play it, received belts. Mr. B. F. Moseley, brilliant writer, lawyer, mayor of Idlewild and to whom belongs the name of the son of the Race, introduced Mr. Litzinger. If all Hon. B. F. said was taken seriously by the populace Mr. Litzinger would win "hands down" for member of the board of re-
Besides some selections by the band and some interruptions by a few ignorant fans while the speakers had the attention they needed only the bellowing of Captain Jimmy Hutton, who strenuously objected to the umpire's decisions on several occasions so strong that had he been in the big leagues he would have been banshed for dogs and a price of skills attuned to him. Well, we aren't in the big dozens.
"Amnichow," the Giants won. Won on their usual ability to use their brains, coupled with Tom Johnson's delivery, although he was also blazing with and had the third baseman of the Gintthers used his nudge we might have seen a few more innings of the pastime. Besides some clever pitching in the earlier stages of the game, Tom came out of the pitcher's box with three triples to the plate, some batting for a pitcher.
"Buddy" Hayes, a crackerjack little youngster, worked behind the plate. His performance was grand. Petray did not commit to a commission at Kenshin Wednesday.
Glinners opened the game by rolling to Johnson and was out to Grant. Reagan hit safely over second. Bjoin hit to Butchman and Reagan was forced at second over to the Giants' bench and took Hutton's foul fly. Barber hit one to Glinners, which was too fast for the white lad to huddle. Hill rapped one which took him back over Glinners head. took him back over Glinners head. the next to left field for two bases, scoring Barber and Hill. Lloyd shoved Duncan to third when McFery threw him out. Francis scored Duncan with a clean single over second. Grant forced Franick with a clean single over second. Chicago National League star, and was mobbed off first, Hoffman to Hutton:
SECOND INNING—Stock singled, Hoffman forced Stock, Bauchman to Joyd, Methnery rolled to Grant. Lloyd grew out of Flemming. Hayes was appalled by the oppose to Joyd. Hayes fled to Stock, Bauchman rolled. Johnson singled and Bauchman sent from first to third. Barber fanned, ill had the call of two and two when Bauchman was out trying to steal home. THIRD INNING—Heath glinted. Ginners shapped a musty bounder at Bauchman and Joyd, but for the out. Regan was out when Bauchman went back and pulled down at fly. Hill singled. Duncan was hit, the impure refused to let him take base. Duncan argued the matter, but was against the pill for a single to right and Hill went from first to third. Lloyd sent a show roller to Hoffman and was out. Francis tapped to Methnery, who came in on the run, dug it out the sod and tossed it. Bauchman was safe and Hill scored. Duncan's single scored Duncan. Hayes fanned, Bauchman rolled to Hoffman and was out.
FOURTH INXING—Bjohn rolled to Bannham and was out to Grant. Tom Johnson fainted the next two men, John, Bannham, and Regan. Bannham skied to Stock. Hill rolled to Hoffman and Johnson was coupled up into a double play, Hoffman to Ginners to Hutton.
FIFTH INXING—Hoffman was a vetted Bannham's current captain, off the prettiest play of the day. McHenry popped and both Grant and Hayes started after it. Hayes, seeing Grant was about to miss it, grabbed it and Bannham drove it long and hard. McHenry drove it long and got it. Hoffman throw out Bannham. Lloyd walked. Lloyd stole second, but Hoffman tagged him when he overslid the bag. Frances out of Grant.
SIXTH INXING—Heath singled. Ginners sacrificed and was out. Johnson to Grant. Regan fanned. Bjohn doubled, but Heath was called out for failing to touch third. Hutton bowled his head off. Bannham out of Grant. Hoffman on a close decision. Bannham grounded to Hutton, unassisted.
SEVENTH INNING — Barber went back and pulled down Hutton's drive. Stock strolled. Hoffman skipped to HILL. Melney pulled a single, but Tom Johnson put three stitches across on Plemmon and played the "Memphis Flies." Johnson bent out a bunt, which the white lads thought would roll foul. Hutton got into another argument with the umpire, Heath and Melney joining in also. Barber laid a bunt down in the same place and legged to first safely, going all the way to Johnson scoring. Hoffman throw out Hill. Duncan hit to Hoffman and Barber was out at the plate. Lloyd singled. Hoffman throw out Francis.
EIGHTH INNING—Heath sent a long to Duncan. Bauchman made a poor job of Ginners roller and Grant's ability in skipped to Duncan. Grant filed to grant. Hayes fanned. Bauchman led to Heath and was out to Hutton.
NINTH INNING—Johin singled afterving two skinks on him. Hutton beat an infield hit. Stock singled, scorched, injury hit to France, picked to Lloyd, injury hit to France, picked to Lloyd, plate for a throw to either first or end and all hands were safe. Fleming hit to Lloyd and Hutton was out, red to Hayes. Hayes lost his head file, wittemen and stopped to tag and send to plate and sing off first. Hutton made a ripped over Hill's head.

The American Giants celebrated their presentation of a championship banner by trimming the city champions, the Gunthers.
Victory seems rather sweet, but not when one has to lose the services of their star catcher like the Giants did Saturday.
One thing that is certain—Dismond could have beaten Moridith Saturday. The big fellow has boasted Tom Haplin and the winner's time Saturday was slow compared with that of the Maroon flyer.
Dismond and Drew would have helped considerable. Either would have been good for five points. What happened to Sol Eater? Then Howe

SEASON OF FOOTBALL NOW CLOSE AT HAND
Gridiron Sport Will Supplant "National Pastime"; the Forward Pass Still a Thriller
(Sporting Editor, Pittsburgh Courier)
The tins is now with us when the crack of the bat will not longer thrill and excite, but the familiar cry of "first down, ten yards to gain," will now hold the stage. The vanguard of the big college squads are already in camp, and before many days, the great autumn sport will be well under way. The coming of the autumn haze and the dull tund of the "punt," are almost synonymous in the estimation of the American youth. The game itself is yearly becoming more popular, for the simple reason that more people are understanding the scientific end of the sport. Time is running out for an element, who could only see the eells of the mass play, and the list of cripples. Some "nollies" even went so far as to compare the sport with prize fighting, where the object or main point in an opponent is to catch the eells in an opponent. These same hammer wielders, never cared to look into the real merits of the game, such as knowing that there was a scientific way to tackle, but hit the line, in fact to do everything in the line in a reasonable extent, prevent injury. It has always been the fellow who figured on his brute strength, and who did not regard training methods, and strategic football tactics, who always made up the ball, and happily, this "bone" has been relegated to the rear on modern football teams.
The rules committee has in no small degree contributed to the game's welfare, by its progressive legislation, to the one that its premium has been placed on speed break, by its initiative. The old boy playing a backfield position, with his 200 pounds of sheer beef, and a teaspoonful of gray matter, has seen his day, and has been supplanted, by the quick thinking, by the quick thinking, the quarter on the run, and who if he sees at a glance that the opposition is massed to meet the play off tackle, can almost without a change of motion, hurt the owl 30 yards down the field to a wolf, cause the heady mania to the widening of the game to go up by leaps and bounds in the estimation of the public. Again the huge crowds will wend their way becked in the colors of their favorite band, the band will march up and down the field, cheering section with uncovered heads as the musicians hail and play the favorite song. Then come the eleven on the field, the sigma are gone through, the captain cheering section cheers the other's team, here is a vast shout—the game is on.
The game is nearly over, the score is tied, when a lone back hurts a successful pass and the awaiting end clenches his fists and the winning touchdown. The game is over and the student body celebrates. We have seen the eleventh inning and the bases full, two men gone and the call of three, two and two, and hit a homer, with great great. We cheered and shouted, BUT it wasn't the same old spirit that dawned over us the night before and the day of the ANNUAL GAME. Professors and professors renewed accomplishments, and the old undergraduate days were gone over. There was Jim and Bill and Henry, all making success. In life, and after the game the "Fran" dance, baseball, basketball, golf football leaves a lingering, a longing, and its so different, the game, the crowds and everything.
came along with the colors of the Irish-American A. C. That was a blow, sure. Seldom a first baseman goes in to pitch, but that was the feat of Ben Taylor Sunday when Dicta Johnson treed in Indianapolis. "Antyersurprised?" Not a member of the Race got first place in either the Junior or the senior games.

Wequatic Park, Newark, N. J., Sept. 15. The National Amateur Athletic senior championship brought many surprises in as much as Roy Morse and I. T. Howe were defeated along with several white champions.
Dismount's absence, in the quarter was missed as much as Howard Drew was missed in the hundred. The time was not so fast in either event—the hundred being run off in ten flat and the best Tom Ilpham (white) could do in the quarter mile was 494-5, although he nosed out Meridith.
Bruga could have outclassed Ted and the critics out here would have rested with ease for the next few months.

Second in the "220"
The first heat of the two hundred and twenty yard dash saw Ward again moss out Morse, who seemed a bit off form. Time for this heat was 21:5-5 seconds, allowed the former Colly college sprinter, allowed the former Colly college commit to hit the tape ahead of him, allowed the same field as the one saved Williams (white) added. Kelly was out, having wrenched his back in the third heat. Meyers, Ward and Morse got away on a flying start, but Meyers pulled London after running 25 yards and left for the last of last year's championship, and Ward ran out. The latter bid too much running power and Morse trailed in second with Kelly third and L. T. Howe fourth.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER

Hill, pastor of Mr. Olivier baptist church, proposed a series of land to demonstrate to the Northerners that members of his Race have the capacity and ability to be farmers and workers. The land is between two railroads and fourteen trains pass by going to the city. An agricultural agent will be able to understand and will have able assistance agent will dispose of lots, each being large enough for a truck farm. It is the hope of the promoters to meet the economic problem arising from the coming to the North of men and women in the city, to be nonsectarian. Each plot will be designed to the full intention of the buyer placing in house on it, surrounded with a garden in front and a truck farm sufficient to feed the occupants on the back. A school of scientific farming will be started and the adoption of an expert, who will instruct the students to soil and the proper method of planting and caring for their farms. A "jitney bus" service will be established to carry those who desire to work in the city to and from their work. Dr. Brown is making arrangements to ask many of the manufacturers in and about the city to Rochester. Rochester is the colonists, as many, it is understood, will not care solely for the work, who would rather stay at the trade in which they are employed.

"Sherif Eley returning from hiding prisoner, was met by the mob at the city limits. They demanded that he deliver the prisoner rapist or tell them. They demanded that he deliver the prisoner rapist and reached his residence. The mob then broke in the front of the building through a rear entrance. He was caught when entering the Elks home. The sheriff arrived and he was battered and kicked by the mob, two of his ribs broken in. He was taken from the trolley of the street car and the noose placed about his neck.
That is, being thwarted for the time in lynching, the mob thus maltreated the sheriff. And under threat of hanging FORCED him to disclose the hiding place of their prey. If this does not make a new mob record, it equals the worst. The scene of the brutal and law defiant deed was in the South. It was pulled off in the city of Lima, an important Ohio railroad center, population over 30,000, which refused to answer a summons to rescue their sheriff. Lima is in the county of Allen, famous for its abolition stand. If Governor Willis of Ohio does not bring the men who assaulted and almost murdered the sheriff to justice, Ohio MUST take its place with Georgia and Florida.

Union Pacific railroad presumably know the for argument as to their wisdom in supplant it with Japanese boys. who are thus ousted from their jobs are Or of them property owners of one sort or ane are brought in by the Union.
AT UNION PACIFIC DEPOT at Omaha, Neb., the "red caps," who are members of the Race, have been replaced with Japanese boys, much to the dissatisfaction of the citizens, if we are to judge by the following expression in the World, one of the leading dailies in that city. "Although the officials of the Union Pacific railroad presumably know their business, there is certainly room for argument as to their wisdom in supplanting the 'red caps' at the union depot with Japanese boys.
"The men who are thus ousted from their jobs are Omaha citizens and voters, and most of them property owners of one sort or another. The Japanese 'red caps' were brought in by the Union Pacific solely to be 'red caps' and are aliens in every sense. Whatever the motive of the Union Pacific may be, in our opinion the positions mentioned certainly lie between Omaha and Nebraska citizens, of whatever color. An explanation of some sort would seem to be in order."
It is encouraging to have our friends go to the front for us of their own volition, for in instances of this kind there is nothing we could do that would be as effective as a protest through the local papers of the Omaha citizens. The reason could not be that the road could not get colored help, for they already occupied the positions. When the matter is sifted to the bottom, undoubtedly it will be found that some over officious official with southern tendencies is attempting to southernize the North. It is no particular honor to be a "red cap," and yet it is one of the positions sought by some of our young men because it pays well. We do not blame the Jap boys for edging in wherever they can, but the railroad officials who are constantly advertising "SEE AMERICA FIRST" SHOULD EMPLOY AMERICANS FIRST.
SOMETHINGS WE BEG to be delivered from our friends, for in their anxiety to help us to be more philosophical to us, they overreach themselves, with the result that more harm than beneficial through misdirected efforts. It is difficult to make any great number of white people aware of the matter of fact, see that the less some things are agitated, the better. All so-called matters are suddenly alreded, for as sure as they are, a certain amount more of prejudice will arise, for people are not all alike and are bound to look at things from different angles.
The most effective work is often done in the quietest way. Prejudice did not happen right at night; it spread over years and years. How then can it be expected to vanish without students' pants? Time, which brings education, must roll on. We must travel the same distance as did every other race; there is no short route; of that we should be thoroughly convinced if we would ever have any peace of mind. The two have given serious thought to the conditions which surround the Colored race in this country, only by a commending with other races will the burs be left and the blues in the limelight beside his white brother. Contact everything. The MINDER ORDERED WORKERS FROM THE SOUTH TO ALL SECTIONS OF THE COUNTRY THAT COULD BEFALL THE RACE WHEN OUR NEW FRIENDS FIND THAT THEIR DIFERENCE SAVE IN COLOR OF THE SKIN. BETWEEN THEMSELVES THAT DEMON PREJUDICE WILL LOSE AT LEAST A FEW OF HIS HORSES.
Thoro may be many things said in favor of an exclusive Negro town, but there are so many things that could be said against such a proposition as to completely overburden the town or a set of individuals might prosper in a certain undertaking, but if it is at the town of Negroville, it is very dear prosperity. It is said that John T. Patrick, a millionaire of North Carolina, is anxious to back to the extent of twelve million dollars, a project which he founded of a town in North Carolina exclusively for Negroes. He has gathered information from some men who are known nationally; men, who it would seem, should see the danger in lending their names and influence to such a project.
Money isn't everything, principle comes first, and while the former is extremely essential in this day and time, it is the latter that brings the permanents into play. Money is the latter and believes he is making amends in part for the sins of his race, but he needs an intensely human and humane person show him the reverse side of his picture, and there can be spent to the benefit of ten million suffering people, rather than just the ones who are not unmindful of Mr. Patrick's unselfish motive; we appreciate his desire to help the poor, but the way he make it smooth rather than leave the blocks so they will return, the way he South America, would be a good example for our American white and black people.
INDIVIDUALS, ORGANIZATIONS, COMMUNITIES
The National Colored Citizenship Rights Congress is to be an open one, both to the cause and the cause who attend to their own responsibility. It is to be free and open for the Congress and declaration. The congress will organize itself independently. The National Congress and declaration will assemble will then create the Congress at Washington, D. C. a one month meeting.
Delegated representatives are quite advisable, and churches, civic and literary societies, fraternal organizations, political and other clubs are asked, to elect and elect the Chair. This Chair will call as a Guild of Rights Committee be formed by public spirited citizens in each community to work together, hold a public meeting and send representation. Any person is at liberty to start such a committee; not at once.
Write to the Negro Trooper, corresponding secretary, for any information desired. Do not contribute "the Congress" with "Conference." Success to all efforts.
THE FOURTH ANNUAL EDITION of the Negro Year Book is now available and contains a world of valuable information along all lines affecting well over the Negro. To those who attempt to keep themselves well informed as well as the Negro, the Negro is the Race of the Races' advancement, this volume is a revolution. The reader cannot fall to the Negro's no matter how pessimistic, by the record of substantial and creditable achievements made by the Race in the past half century. It is a volume that should find a place in every home.
EVERY LITTLE BIT HELPS and whether it is the fathery appearance of Candidate Hughes that is causing the women's clubs all over the country to enlarge, the dear ladies are welcome to cast their nets in Republican women with full assurance that they will not come up empty when the final race has been run.

Savannah, GA, Sept. 15.—The white people of this city have transferred the "Jim Crow" section of the street car to the front of the street. The street is being removed to think that the "Jewil" has possessing the street cars in front, due to a fire that took place on a West Broad street and Battery car line, and in order to be immune from him, they have turned the street into a second area. A few evenings ago, the street car was filled with people and the white people had taken up all of their section of the car and over half of where our people live. The car caught fire in front, due to the power of the fire to escape the flames, and the car speed down the street and great excitement prevailed. The conduction stood in the doorway with outstretched arms, yelling there is no danger, but the angry person was putting their way to the door and jumped out many crawled out the windows and leaped to the ground. Three white women were killed and others severely hurt. Not a, Race man or woman received a wound. Now that they will be prepared to return to the street car (front part)—the rule has been changed and our people have to ride in front. The white man in the south will do anything he pleases to protect himself and never regards the life of others as they have been made by a happening will take place to wine out "Jim Crowism" entirely—let us hope that day is near at hand.
