Seventh in Rousing Send-Off The friendship between the two regiments was so strong that when a Seventh regiment man would meet a member of the Eighth on the street car or anywhere else he would hall him with the Eighth high priest, and the Eighth regiment would come back with a Hello, Seventy-Eight. When we entrained on Saturday the Seventh regiment to a man came over to see us off. While they were waiting to see the train pulled out with the Seventh people high priest, and the Seventh regiment gave us a band concert. It was a feeling that words cannot express. Both bands joined playing "There's No Place Like Home," and when the Eighth's band boarded the sewers as the corps yelled aboard, the Seventh shrugged up "Should Auld Acquaintance Be Forget," and the boys of the Seventh threw their hats in the air and cheered long and loud. San Antonio never had seen such treatment given a regiment nor a body of men of our Race by white men before. I earnestly hope that when the Seventh regiment returns to Chicago that our people will turn out to receive them and show them a fitting welcome, BE CAUSB they were the ONLY soldiers who would show any color prejudice and felt proud at ALL times to be a brother soldier and citizen of Illinois. There was an enormous crowd at the train to see us off. At 5 p. m. the train pulled out amid despair cheers; there were many tenors and many faces and as we pulled out of San Antonio, as Continued on next page Very Latest NE GOV.

XI., NO. 42 By Corporal Stanley Norwell Springfield, Ill., Oct. 13—The Eighth Regiment, Illinois National Guard, arrived in three sections late Tuesday night and early Wednesday morning after a long trip from San Antonio. The boys stretched themselves after making their quarters and proceeded to spend their spare change in wiring and phoning their relatives in Chicago. Master out of the United States service will proceed at once, then the men will be examined, equipment accounted for and the boys will come home in a body. Chicago citizens are preparing a long and hearty welcome for this famous regiment. The Eighth Illinois broke camp at Camp Wilson Saturday and prepared to shake the dust of San Antonio off their feet. The regiment entrained at 3 o'clock the day before the boys have been in San Antonio so long that they have become well acquainted and there was a host of townspeople to see us and give us an enthusiastic send-off. Seventh Regiment Like Brothers While I am on the subject I wish to mention the Seventh Illinois Infantry (white) has been a loyal to us as brothers could be. I wish it known to the people of Chicago and throughout the country that this same Seventh Illinois regiment has been going toward the Eighth, but has at all times taken up for us and fought for us and protected us in any town brawls that happened to arise. They never at any time were ashamed to recognize and honor, and to my mind the best test of friendship of a northern white man is Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY CHICAGO, OCTOBER 14, 1916 MONTGOMERY, ALA., SCHOOLS Photos taken specially for the Chicago Defender showing one reason why members of the Race are leaving the south in such droves FOURTEENTH STREET AND AVENUE H SOUTH Jim Crow school, dilapidated, dirty building, litter all over the yard.

Witness declared that the murder was unprovoked.

He has notation of members of the Race who knew him and his family connections, he has disgusted all who are acquainted with his methods. He butts into every place people and whenever his acquaintances of darker hue happen to meet him he either ignores them entirely or cuts his hair. Not that anybody should worry about the "nuts" personal friendship, but it is merely mentioned to show that the follow carries his jack-ideas. Ashamed of Mother The writer had the mistrustome to witness one of this Ham's exhibitions. He had a car along the way downtown. He had his mother walking ahead of him to the street crossing and when the street car came along he stopped to pay their own fare and occupying separate seats. The mother, for encouraging him in his anklebones, called a woman of refinement and has made the mistake of codling and humoring this offspring of hers until, before he had stopped, all the carmarks of a "Willy" boy. This "mutt" was keeping company with a young lady whose personal appearance corresponds greatly with his own as regards complexion, hair, etc., and those was a rumor that a wedding was a time to be a man who often is the greater and copers with her father, a practical man with a trade, but whose complexion is a few shades darker than hers. During one of the "dude" visits, she was held by the prospective son-in-law adjoining the girl, quite appropriate to the others, and the streets with her pop and explaining that after the nuptial knot was tied they would lie away to some other locality, where they could establish themselves among the "white folks," and they were to wear a mکار any way to the other. They are more stepped out onto the veranda where the couple was seated and took a firm grip on the "skate"s coat collar. After planting his number 10's where he thought he was for the hardest daddy sailed. He was the calling one of the known showeders his hat and can't be him. That ended the romance right there, and it is said that for a week or ten days the snob's mamma has been serving in his meals off the mantel piece. There are many of the same things in universe, both mule and feemule, but this one is the limit as far as the writer's personal experience is concerned.

AMPED COMPANY, New York The Originator of the Notorious Ku Klux Klan to Be Honored by a Statue at Shelby, N.C. By the Schutinizer Shelby, N. C. Sept. 13.—The notorious leader of murders, "Col." McAfee, who gained fame as a spiller of human blood during the days of the reconstruction, is to be "honored" by the "whites" of this God-for-saken burg with an equistrian stupef. It is a settled fact that the only drawback of the seceded, the only drawback at this time, is the need to whether the lend will be dressed in the trademark of his murderous klan or Confederate army. While one of the rotten traitors bad as the other, the one being the insignia of a gang of cold blooded murders, is the uniform of the traitors of '81-86, it is hard for the Crackers of these parts to choose between them. The entire propensity to use the insignia of the Times of New York, which represents nothing, took the stand of justifying the organization of the Klux and advises its members to use the insignia of that notorious gang. To show that there is a skiltfinish feeling in refereeing the autopsy, the Charlotte, N.C. Observation says, "The people are used it would "impose upon the people of this and succeeding generals and defense, a duty that might be better irksome with the passing of the years, and that might, in the end, he repudiated." Col. "Col." carved in a Confederate uniform. The New York Times expresses the opinion that the Ku Klux Klan was an organization that the lynch-billies of the South should not be ashamed of, and tries to saddie the blame for the crimes and outrages it committed, upon the�ndulers of the mobs operating under the same form of the Klan after the "Col." had let go of it. It is further, it tendies to the would-be diluluptions of the Union in the South. Look at the following clipping from the columns of The Times: "It is more the North than the South that has reason to blush at the name of the Ku Klux Klan; that name recalls a time when men took the law into their own hands, but it recalls still more the unleashed tyranny that forced them to do so; and of that tyranny the North has long repented." Wouldn't this sentiment jar you? The New York Times should move its plant south of the Mason and Dixon line, as sheets of its calibre are a distinct disgrace to the country. If "Col." McAfee deserves a stintue for the blond just he and his mobs exhibited, Jesse Jones should have one on the court house grounds at his home town, and Renedict Arnold should be riding and iron horse in front of the capitol at Washington. 'EIGHTH' ARRIVES ON ILLINOIS SOIL Continued from first page we had made many friends among our own people. The ladies had fixed up many lovely baskets of lunch for the boys. We came through Texas, Oklahoma, Kansas and Missouri, stopping at Kansas City and St. Louis. We recruits not to get run over by automobiles when they arrive in Chicago while staring at the elevated trains in cars in which we rides were electric lighted and we had a porter to wait on us, which is quite a treat after having slept among the ants, rat-demakers and tarantulas and other bugs that fell into the Pulliam mattress fell much softer than the soil of Texas. While we were in Austin two weeks after we moved to our new home, we house to us and entertained us on Mrs. Edna Hill and her sister-in-law, Mrs. Houston of 2712 W. Twenty-eighth street. Austin, Texas was kind enough to hire us to work in her house. She went to no end of trouble to make the evening pleasant and the dinner was a grand affair. There was a restaurant in abundance, which was greatly appreciated by the boys after the 108-mile hike. Those present were Mr. and Mrs. Johnston, Corporal Norvell, Corporal Whiting, Johnson, Artinier Tom Brown, Private Ollie Smith, all of D Company. Aaron Hunter of Company D has the record of killing a water moccasin while he was eating. The only kick we had en route was the eats. The cooks were grouchy and we received only two meals a day while they were. It will not be long now before the boys will be stepping down Michigan avenue and Wabash avenue and the peonies and the nolse' coming from the band's brand now horns. We consider ourselves very fortunate indeed to be ordered home at the airport and we go to the border from Springfield and came home before three other regiments which preceded us. I presume which article is we hope to be home before the next issue of the magazine Defender.

Some have been well educated and good citizens at their home towns. Others have been the lowest strata, and their department in public places and on common carriers has been deplorable. Their language and actions have been very unbecoming. The De-urgues that argue that the latter class remember the past and are coming to conduct themselves orderly and mainly, and not humiliate others of the Race who are decent and respectable. Just as the crowd coming from the Stock Yard on "right" in the car where ladies sat they were using loud, vile language that was disguising and embarrassing to any rebel. For some of our ministers to visit places where these men work who have been imported here and tell them how to con-duct themselves. Things will grow when something is done in this direction. When foreigners come to this city, ignorant and without knowledge of how to treat the priest in the Catholic church practice it, they come to practice it.

PETER B. son, one in 1913, eight months after he assumed office, at which time the writer was one of the number. The President then told us he was not aware of the segregation orders. We gave him a fac simile copy of one of the orders by one of his chiefs, and he kept it, saying he would look into it. We left him a monster protest from all over the country, signed by 10,000 persons, who did not know about segregated lunch rooms, toilet rooms and rest rooms in the departments, even if the chief magistrate did not. After waiting a whole year, with no change for the butter, with things grow discharges, and demotion, the way of service, the committee, led by the intrepid William Monroe Trotter, went to Wilson again in 1814, when he attempted to regale. And when Mr. Trotter showed the inconsistency of his position, he lost the public office in government service, he had been appointed the President by Trotter! Since that time and up to the present, every member of the Race public office in government service, he had been appointed to their places, thus showing President Wilson's idea of justice, administered with liberty and good judgment, with prejudice from every other source. The National Equal Rights League camped an annual meeting in this campground, and also the White House, and asked the Race everywhere to send delegates. The response in person was from as far west as Illinois; by proxy from the other ocean. After preliminaries, five addresses, after a formal organization, reports from committees and staff, and a battle came over adoption of report of state and country. The report reviewed all of our past four years, and urged on our people to adopt of Charles E. Hughes in the coming election. Judge Thomas E. Walker, a judge expected lawyer and citizen of the District of Columbia, and their grounds were that political recommendation had well nigh broken up the organization four years ago; that the College should seem to make more Hughes anyway, and that no one knew Mr. Hughes attitude toward us, and be expected to seem to make of this a political organization. It enough to condemn President Wilson's policy against us. The convention seemed even divided on the subject, and respondent took the floor for the first time and showed the delegates it was a political organization, our people to urge them to, use their political just the man whose segregation policies were denouncing; that the only effective way to defeat him was to do the only thing we could do to defeat the man who had injured us more than any President in the history of our country, and that the chance of defeating him, and publish that indorsement from the houston, in every Race paper, from every pulpit and from every person, in every possible thing to defeat the man who had so insulted us and jeopardized our liberty and our economic welfare, so mass our political strength and so wield it in our own defense at all times and in pieces, that no President again would be allowed to suffer as we had suffered the past four years, and thus teach them to fear our vote as they now do the labor vote. It was taken for adoption of the report the indorsement won overwhelmingly, and I was very pleased to have Judge Walker, who had been the first to stand and on the floor, tell me that I had convinced him it was the thing to do, and had not come from Chicago he felt sure the report would not have been adopted.

LAUREL YOUNG PHILADELPHIA PROGRESSIVE Recent Friction Over Race Police Has Beneficial Results; Race Business Man vs. Jew Bv B. C. Caution Philadelphia, Pa. Oct. 13—Slow town. That is what we have always heard Philadelphia called. But now, how different. The Race in Philadelphia until a few years ago had been as backward and old-fashioned as everyone and everything else in Philadelphia. The hustling, but always courteous redcaps (Race) assist you to the street. As you pass the broad street, you see glimpses of new waiters (Race), clean and healthy. You have to pass a physical test before you can enter the feminist society. Every time you pass the test, you wonderful influence among members of the Race. The men now keep themselves under physical condition than ever before. If you prefer a hotel, you are directed to the Roadside, a first-class hotel with restaurant service. Al Jones is the proprietor. Or you can go to Scott's hotel on Twelfth street. Amos Scott is proprietor of this hostel. There is also Woodson's or the Baltimore house. Perhaps you prefer to stop at the Y. M. C. A. You take a car and ride about ten squares. You enter the Southwest Branch Y. M. C. A. on Christian street. It is a large four-story brick structure, light and airy. You are impressed with the large lobby, writing rooms, reading room and hillyard parlor. You meet Mr. Henry W. Porter, executive secretary. He makes you feel perfectly at home. You go to the dormitory. You find a nice comfortable room, electric lights and yardwood floors; everything sanitary. You go a few doors up the street for a restaurant. The De Chabert is popular with the boys from the "Y." Next to the De Chabert is Ward's, which is also a first-class restaurant. You get good meals at reasonable prices. The waitress tells you someone is calling on the phone. It is Amos Scott, City Club. He sends an invitation to visit the Citizens club. You accept and a car is sent for you. Arriving at the club, you are imminent to receive an invitation from the members. The principle followed by the Citizens club of Philadelphia could be well patterned after in the past, with an emphasis on identity from the members. They tell you of the recent friction over the Race police on South street. The Jew们 forced their removal. They forced their removal. Did the Race stand for it? Not at all. They couldn't have then replaced through the police. They held a boycott of Jewish merchants resulted. The Jews then came to time and had them replaced. Bankruptcy had taken hold. The boycott ended. They succeeded. You bet they did. Well, the boycott is now off. "Do you think you can hold out against the Jews?" now, but they see I have the stands, for the daily welcomed. Don't believe I have lost any trade since the boycott was started and women are waking up. Digges & Holland, who have a bakery in Atlantic City, have established a branch here, as they say, the colored population will grow. Grocery stores and respond fast.

These kind of progressive young men are changing to old men. Toothache, toothache, an example of what is going on in this line. There isn't a face place on Chestnut street than these progressive Race men have in the Race scene. Toothache, toothache, an loan office on South street is another example.

There is a way—that is to recognize man for man regardless of color; to give justice and education to all, and to abolish the lynch Crow schools, and above all, give the Race its vote and stop disfranchising them.

LOUIS Lewd White Women Invade District, Catering to Race Men BY A STAFF CORRESPONDENT St. Louis, Mo. Oct. 13—Two years ago a crusade was started in this city against prostitution and the segregated district of the city's police department. Recently the Rev. Dr. Brandt, pastor of one of the leading churches here, and members of his congregation discovered, much to their horror, that a woman had taken up their residence in the lonable West End, in the neighborhood of their church; consequently they began a systematic campaign to rid the district of the undesirable characters. The result will be watched with interest. Residence districts, especially the one cast of Grand avenue, have been more or less enveloped by the police, white women even since the police segregated Lucas avenue section. Some of them have secured fists in and attacked the segregated Lucas avenue section. Most offense, however, is their invasion of the quas-questionable resorts, "Buffalo" and "Buffalo trade." It is even claimed, and not entirely without some foundation for belief that other white women of better reputation, those who are honestly and fairly faced, and profit in this life, and it is not an uncommon sight for those who are out at night to meet some of them on the street, or early of mornings going to their homes. Respectable people have not an yet dolled out burden. Do the prince and his congregation. The full of discussion as to the necessity or evil of prostitution, and whether or not they should set aside for immoral purposes. Out of the apparently tangled situation and vague nature of the Races, the berets of the Race may secure relief, even if they remain different to conditions. Ridding themselves of their own loose clothes presents a somewhat different problem. BROTHERHOOD CELEBRATES By J. H.

Made only y 1 PAGE THREET Within the last week there have occurred on the south side six murders. The willful and malicious taking of one's life has been accomplished as mere child's play. The knife and the gun have been used as though they were toys. In almost all of the six cases the killing was the result of a quarrel over small change, mostly room rent. Usually such cases are over the poker table or the dice game, but only one of the six was the indirect result of gambling. Can it be that the state's attorney's office is lax in sending murderers to prison or to the gallows? Or is it the belief that every murderer has a chance to become free, even though he has laid another in his or her grave? It is time for vigilant prosecution of those who take that which they cannot give. At the six murder cases a Defender reporter has been at the coroner's inquests, and at none of them was there evidence where the killing was in absolute self-defense, but they were pre-mediated murders in the first degree. In three of the cases they were individuals who have not been here long, but long enough to disgrace our fair city and good name. If killings keep up at the rate they are going, an innocent man's life won't be worth a shilling. The police have been successful. In cases where the state's courts caries what will the state's attorney do when they appear before the grand jury? The citizens want a lesson made of will. They want the guilty one arrested and crime stopped. They want the guilty one punished to the full extent of the law.

It has been exhibited at The States two days, The Lincoln three days, The Washington four days, The Star one day, and the Athens two days. It is repeating at The Lincoln on Friday. This is a record in itself and shows that what the writer always said is true, viz: that our people play and that the day of the "chicken stealing, crap shooting and gin fland" hero of the screen is gone, if indeed, it was ever here. The reputation which realization has been making in Chicago is a local hero in Launchon, one of the owners of the Pekin Theater, Dayton, Ohio.

The following notes from the Chicago exhibitors who have booked this first release of the Lincoln Motion Picture Co. may prove interesting to those of the African pride in our people's achievements. Mr. Langston — "Realization" proved to be all you claimed for it and I made a point to inquire of our patrons as to what they were unanimous in expressions of satisfaction and I consider it, myself, the best production of its kind ever shown at Theatre. It is a clean cut well acted drama, that manipulated images of many who have associated all Colored pictures with the lowest of low comedy. You can book me as far ahead as you wish, but I will refrain from releases, not alone for The States, but for Lincoln and Lincoln theaters as well—Geo. Paul. Here is one from The Star, the only theater operated entirely by members of the Race. Friend i Langston: — "Realization" proved the most popular feature shown here in a long time and delighted record of patrons. The patrons were surprised and delighted is it mildly. You can put us down for your next and next releases. The people are inquiring for "Trooper of Co. K" already. Mr. Dooley of The Atlas, the largest house south of The Grand says: Friend Langston:—"Renialization" was a hit here on Monday and Tuesday. You can book me for the next release you please. The Lincoln Motion Picture Co. has done something in getting away from the cheap and low stuff called "the other producers. It is great stuff—J. That's the way it goes, and as this is the first release, you can depend on it that what follows will add to the population which the Lincoln's first production has gained.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER SECRET SERVICE CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE New York, Oct. 13. "This Way Out" is the title used for a new show which is to open at Gibson's Standard Theater, Philadelphia, Monday, Oct. 16. "How to stay out," will no doubt be an appropriate title for future near stars who may aspire to do something big. Leigh Whipper is producing "This Way Out." He can best be remembered as a part of Irvin C. Miller's show last season. He was the "mut" who made his entrance through a hole (mountain scene). We think they can stay out of the hole this season. The Byron Bros. have one of the best musical acts in the business and always go big. From the front they have all the appearances of a Mexican act. If this country had gone to war with Mexico, I wonder what kind of a costume the boys would wear? They are my boys just the same. John T. Gibson, the B. F. Koth of the Race theatricals, stands like a mountain above all eastern managers, and he is the profession if he decided to brand himself establish a circuit of theaters like the Standard. He is (s)he one man in the business who can do big things and do business and has always proved himself a friend. He also helped Irvin Miller came East with a twelve-acre and Gibson gave him a fifty-people show. Billy King got shut out in New York, was doubted in Washington on mounting the show, and but John T. picked him up and gave him work, and King made good. Now Leigh Whipner is given a chance. A hundred other deeds just as worthy, and he is the profession. Antonio, look for more next week—Secret Service Jim.

His great, courageous spirit never failed him. Though trapped by Montezuma's murderous sons. He fought with valor, led by Boyd and Morey. Till back to back belegagued with his pal He won his way into the ranks of glory—The Trooper of the Tenth at Carrizal." In presenting "The Trooper of Company K," featuring the great Race actor, Noble M. Johnson, the Lincoln Motion Picture Co. of Los Angeles has shown itself as being right up to the minute in selecting a subject both timely and instructive. His wonderful production will be seen on the screen in the better class theaters on the Stroth, being booked by Tony Langton of The Chicago Defender, the Lincoln's special representative. The feature is in three great parts and is the most suspicious product of the recent crisis in our relationship with Mexico and the consequent universal interest in the massacre of the troopers of the famous Tenth cavalry, "The Trooper M Company K," a thrilling picture. Cannot be counted of its skill, it is well named. A short synopsis follows: "Shiftless" Joe, unkempt and caroless of dress, spends his last cent for flowers to give to Clarah Holmes, a high school girl of good family, who, through a kind and humane act of Joe's, has a deep affection for her friend, and at every opportunity braids him for his shiftlessness, and advises him on ways to better his condition. Jimmy Warner, an ardent admirer and chum of Clarah's, is afforded good holidays and spending money—by the way, Jimmy was a washtub—and is quite a favorite among his sporty class of friends. Jimmy is not pleased with Clarah's unselfish, broad minded interest in Joe. Though he tolerates it, he knocks Joe. Clarah induces him to spend deep love and sympathy for animals cared for late at work. He finds the foreman very angry when he arrives and, being unfamiliar with this line of work and anxious to make good, Joe becomes excited to make a botch of the whole affair with his friend, the foreman and other workmen. Joe, after off the job, seeks Clarah to tell her of his ill luck. Clarah is at home with Jimmy when Joe arrives and tells of his ex- MARRIAGE ANNIVERSARY Raleigh, N.

Joe is near Cassa Grandes, Mexico, while Jimmy at home is finding it not so very clear selling with Clara. Although Joe is seen a little crude and shiftless, he has on a regular basis been by his constant nature and calm his horse. Through workings of the army Company K and Company C are drawn into a fight with Mexican troops at Carrizal. Joe distinguishes himself by heroic fighting, light, rescuing his wounded captain and helping his escape. Clara, reading in the papers of Joe's deeds and experiences, denounces Jimmy for his false accusations. Joe is decorated for bravery and recommended for a cavalry service home on a leave of absence and is welcomed by Clara with open arms. The picture depicts, in gripping scenes, the unfinished bravery of the troopers under fire and how they, greatly outnumbered, sacrificed their blood and lives around them. Over three hundred people are counted in the room, ex-Ninth and Tenth cavalrymen, Mextons, cowboys and horses. Watch for opening date. CAROLINA GIRLS Teenan Jones' big act, the Carolina Girls, eight people, featuring Jimmy Marshall and Emmitt Anthony, the popular young comedian, opened at The Academy on Monday and created a great impression. It is distinctly a singing and dancing act with just enough dialogue to put jitter in the comedy through it all. The six girls have the nucleus of the act, are excellently trained and form a chorus which it would be hard to equal. A fine special drop is used and the costuming is great. Along this line it is casually one of the highlights, Mr. Jones having been very liberal in his approach with the customers, millers, etc., the props costing well up into four figures. The act runs twenty-one minutes and there is more action in it than in some acts of twice its length. Eight distinct acts were offered and every one of them went on to be the same can be said of the dance numbers and if the appreciation shown by the big audiences at the Academy is to be taken as a criterion, the success of the act is assured.

No artist, no time at no place has drawn large a crowd as she, and the diva herself, the singer of these verses. The noted singer was tendered home-coming under the direction of Chicago Defender, she having repented the paper on a tour in South Africa in early spring, singing with her husband, who was still, bringing home with her highest impressions from press and music masters capability as an artist. Singer in Fine Voice Brown was in fine voice. She with divine sweetness: her notes clear, at all times pure, and her and high notes were made with c研究与. Not only did she captivate her voice, but her stage presence, the face and beautiful gowns made fully the greatest of all artists on today. She was the first singer of "Song" in costume.

He paid a glowing tribute to the man who was the most wonderful songbird he had ever heard, and that when she was in his country, nothing but highest praises and commendations were paid her, while she charmed large audiences there during four tours, reiterated what the Defender said, and answered what the Defender for those who knew the language, had a trade or profession and the money to remain until they were well established. During the intermission the consul and his attachs left their seats and came, Brown, and begged for an introduction that they might congratulate her. Tribute of Loyalty The vast audience present and the 500 turned away was a great tribute to Mme. Brown: one that she will long remembré, was such that is accorded artists like her, Tetrazazzi and others. The large attendance showed that it appreciated the ability and musical education of our own Race; that she was honored at home that people came out to her first time to gain admission to a musical and then turned so many away. After the recital, a reception was held for the singer in the mentor's office and at 1 o'clock she left the mentor. Ohio has recital on the following night. She has engagements for *Columbus*, Ohio: Indianaapolis, Ind.; Detroit, Mich.; Louis-lands, and Lexington, Ky., and Mr. Arthur Brown and Lexington, Ohio, has booked up to 1317.

She has also been a musical world and set a precedent almost impossible to be surpassed. PATTI BROWN GIVES THANKS BROWN GIVES THANKS Detroit, Mich. Oct. 12—I wish to extend all of my well-wishers in Chicago my most hearty help for the noble assistance they gave me in making my recital on Oct. 5 a record-breaker, for without your co-operation I can never succeed. I will thank all patrons present and sympathize with the multitude turned away and beg to assure you that your patronage has served as a great inspiration to me. Let us hope that our men with money will soon realize how badly our needs are for a concert hall and come to our rescue. Trusting I may continue to maintain your good will and patronage, I am, most gratefully yours, ANITA PATTI BROWN.

Among the many sex dramas there has probably never been one shown anywhere that carries the remarkable moral lesson as does this great feature. It is a story of heredity, in which a woman's innocence sacrifices her lovely braes the soul of man and Tainted heredity is a result of youthful dissipation. The double moral standard is wrong. Public opinion should prize a woman only by the extenuating circumstances which caused her downfall. This is powerful moral vividly portrayed in this picture—the crime of sin. In order to save her husband from going to prison on a charge of forgery, she sacrifices herself, this woman—she gave up all! Made of herself a martyrs glove of a man. And then he, too, spurred her, for far too long, her servant's sings is the ungratitude of man—the failure to look behind the material things and see the dazzling white, the glorious purity of a saintly wife and mother. She logs for her husband's release. "If you pay the price I'll release him," taunts the moral leper, the debased viper, who leaves a lasting stain on his progeny. "Call at my apartment tonight and I'll settle the matter with you." My God! Don't ask me to do that!" she cries. But she did it to save her husband, the only man she ever loved. Her husband's suspicions are aroused by the remark of another woman, and on discovering the likeness of his son to the libertine, accuses his wife of unnaturalness. She confesses, but claims she made the supreme sacrifice in order to save him. "But I did it for you," is the frzenized plea of the woman about to be cast aside, comes in the most dramatic scene of the play, and is set in full. She plucked; she ate, and all who loved her shared her shame. In vain the sacrifice for naught—the bitter suffering. Sin should touch the man with the earth, and should share the blame as she the shame. While the subject has been handled with delicacy, the censor board thinks the atmosphere of the story might be made more real, for that reason no one under 21 years of age will be admitted. On account of the enormous cost of booking we are forced to charge 15 cents admission for that reason. Sunday's matinee begins at 2:30.

Dear Sir: I am not theatrically inclined and don't want you to get me a job, but I am a friend to you and I have read applications that I impulse. Colored people have sent you and, of course, they don't know how to apply for a situation like a person that have been thoroughly trained, and have an advantage of the southern Black man. They don't think you should send them such disencouraging answers; instead, encourage and instruct them. For really and truly, if some of those who were properly trained they might have been dians. I shall not sign any name to this letter, but shall expect to see the answer in next week's copy. I will only say that I am a friend to my Race, and more than anxious to see them go forward.

The boys are showing plenty of teamwork and feel confident that they are going to hold the record of last year. Last year's graduating class took three linemen and one half-back, but these places are filled by efficient men this year. Charles H. Williams and Capt. John F. Hunt, both squadrons through hard daily practice. The players are working with a good spirit and there is nothing to hinder them from duplicating last year's gritron stunts. The first important game scheduled is to be played Nov. 3, with Union University, the game is being looked forward to with great interest on account of the good showing made by Union last season. Nov. 17, at Hampton, the strong Lincoln University squad will have its chance to down the champions. Linus Hunt always had a good team and everyone was going to see the hard tackling and line plunging that these two teams always use. On Thanksgiving day Hampton will meet Howard University on the latter's side. He will play in the middle of the season, for Howard is determined to win back the laurels that were taken from them by the boys from the seaside. The Hampton squad is equally deter- mented by the laurels that that "great machine" driven by Capt. Gayle won last year. Lone Star State Dallas, Tex. Oct. 13.—New Zion Bantist church, Dr. S.

The protest came after a series of arrests and a race, supposedly committed by "colored" men, but some of which, it was proved, were white men, who blacked up. There is a white man, who blacked up. There is a white man, who blacked up. There is a white man, who blacked up. “We Colored people of Lima do not and will not put up with any more dastardly crimes from the floating colored brutes that come to Lima. While we welcome a man of principle and a man that will prove himself a man and a gentleman. The best we can do is very poor in the eyes of the white man. Let a Negro commit a crime and see the big headlines about it in the papers. Let a Negro buy a piece of land or go into business and you do not hear anything about it. Now, if the Negroes that come to Lima cannot be decent, the shortest way out and the fastest way is too slow, for we are not going to put up with any more foolishness.” The writer of the protest is right when he infers that every dehasing action made by our people is magnified a million-fold, and no matter what good deeds we do not favorable comment is made. He says further: "And another thing—not long ago a white man beat up his wife and laid it at the door of a Negro—that also must be stopped, and the white men that insult our wives, sisters, mothers and daughters on the street must stop. We have to suffer all kinds of rot and torment for what some of our illiterate people do, and it deprives us of our good standing and citizenship." Being barred from the theaters is a man's best bet when he takes up through the courts. If there is a fight, he can place places against the respectable of any race it is a violation of the law and prosecution can be forced to place the discriminatory practices and to pay dearly for their past offences. See what the letter says in "Look what the 5-cent shows have done in the last ten days on account of that riot—barred the Negro: What are the consequences of honest Negroes going to do if this thing is going to be the morning. We will stop it, for the next Negro or who man that blacks and commits crimes of the morning. We have asked the police to take charge of the lawless bunch that hangs around the saloon and make them pay for the police don't do it, we will. The time when we will sit supinely and allow a man the low degraded of our own and the lower of our own and the dirty crimes, to drag us down the staining that the majority of us when we will sit honest and upright living. Take warmth and dignity, the bunch of low black and white trash, the will soon cease to be a virtue."

The School Problem Owing to the fact that the dread of the infantile paralysis has not been entirely wiped out, the opening day of all the schools has been set further back, it heats up on Oct. 16. Great interest has been centered on the delay, as it is rumored that only one day will be allowed from the class rooms during the Christmas holiday. Of course, this is not being given a hearty welcome by the student body. Our Friends and Visitors The week has been a large one in reference to our friends, and visitors coming and going.

THE LAWS OF THIS COUNTRY are, in the main, just and fair, and there would be little cause for any citizen to complain if they were enforced as they were intended to be and should be, but unfortunately many of the most important, ones, from our viewpoint, are obsolete, or might as well be as far as any service they render to those in need. Public sentiment is the dominant factor in every section of our land and laws can be construed to mean anything that meets with popular approval. Our judges are dependent upon the votes of their fellow citizens for office and as fair and impartial as perhaps they should like to be, they are more or less influenced by their surroundings. How comprehensive is the following section of the Revised Statutes of the United States: If two or more persons conspire to injure, oppress, threaten or intimidate any citizen in the free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege secured to him by the Constitution or laws of the United States or because of his having exercised the same; or if two or more persons go in disguise on the highway or on the premises of another with intent to prevent or hinder his free exercise or enjoyment of any right or privilege so secured, they shall be fined not more than five thousand dollars and imprisoned not more than ten years; and shall, moreover, be thereafter ineligible to any office or place of honor, profit or trust created by the Constitution or laws of the United States. If even this one section of our law was carried out to the letter two-thirds of the South's "best citizens" would have had that five thousand dollars to pay, or would be now where they belong, behind prison walls. Imagine how v of them would be eligible to office if they were even required to live but one of the clauses. From their point of view the colored man has right or privilege that they are bound to respect, and what little law that is in vogue is meted out to the white and black man differently. It really isn't necessary for "two or more persons to go in disguise"—with intent to Under the free exercise of one's right. Why resort to a disguise when on such a gala event as a lynching bee? Everybody knows everybody else and it must be remembered that there is honor even among thieves. Here we pause to apologize to thieves for mentioning them in the same breath with murderers. That is the sum total of what any person is who even in the remotest manner abets or sanctions mob law. Never was there a crime committed by a colored man so horrible or dastardly that the parallel cannot be found among the same class of whites, and yet the public magnifying glass is used on the black man, while the searchlight has to be turned on the white criminal before he is discovered, and when discovered, he is blamed individually and not his entire race, as is true in the black man's case. Again, if the law was enforced, it might be possible that Mr. Woodrow Wilson, at present assuming the title role in this great country, might be ineligible to office, for does not this same section of the Revised Statutes say that one guilty of discrimination, etc., "be thereafter ineligible to any office or place of honor, profit or trust created by the constitution or laws of the United States." It wouldn't be a very difficult matter to have charges sufficient to remove a goodly portion of the men higher up in the political game of the Southland. Blease, Vardaman, Hoke Smith and men of that stripe climb into the political spotlight on the back of the poor colored man. The man who could say the most against the Negro, and do the most to the Negro, was the man who was supported enthusiastically by the class who did their utmost to wreck this country, and who are instilling into their children the same poison with which they were inoculated. But through this cloud of darkness there is a ray of light, and it can be found in the migration of the thousands of colored people from the land of cotton and sugar cane. It is best for white and black, as both will get a new vision and perhaps as the days roll on there will be a higher appreciation and a stricter adherence to the laws of this land by Southern whites, especially those which are intended to give every citizen equal rights. IT WILL GLADDEN THE HEARTS of many people to know that the 5th Regiment will be home in a few days. Their places will be taken in the 12th WYoming, who have been ordered to proceed at once to San Antonio. Our host, Wyoming, having participated in that much talked of divisional hike, must first return to San Antonio for training for dear old Illinois. Chicagoans undoubtedly will give them a welcome as only ten tens of the "Windy City" can, and one they will remember quite as long as they will their second touch of real army life. DID AXON ONEVER HEAR of Billy Sunday raising his voice in protest against the warriors committed upon Uncle Sam's dark citizens? If so, will they kindly stay for now in the spotlight—nobody steppin'—that's what we thought. But Billy is saving (white) souls for a consideration; we mustn't bother him with trifles. WONDER the strict enforcement of the gambling laws will force the gentry in the game to seek legitimate employment. That means that they wouldn't know how to act if they made a whole dollar honestly. Whatever reason, political or otherwise, Mayor Thompson seems to be doing his level best to rid Chicago of some of her most glaring evils. More power to him. THE WEATHER MAN predicts that the fall will be unusually pleasant, balmy breezes from the Southland are promised and all that sort of thing. The weather out of our climatic changes may attempt to be a discipline of George Washington, but some people are under the impression that he hobnobbs too much with Ananias. / GERMANY is blessed with an unusually large harvest this year, which has enabled the authorities to increase the rations for persons who have hard manual labor to perform. This does not look like they were being starved out as the villes would have uselve. AS A HISTOR their truthful ame ease and only difference IF THERE shington the S ARE ADVANCING THE CAGO W.

MESSENGER TERRIBLY BEATEN; WHITE ASSAILANT DISCHARGED Richmond, Va., Oct. 13—Dr. J. B. Weems (white), state chemist, attached to the department of agriculture, was acquitted last week in the justice's court, where he was arraigned on committing a murder. The chemist, Clyde W. Saunders (white), printer, 1116 East Cary street, who charged Weems cursed, abused and beat him terribly. Dabney is a messenger and brought Weems to the court. Weems, who declined to accept it because he did not want it. Dabney telephoned his employer for instructions, which was to leave the package. Before he left, he had instructed the white man, who, like most Southerners, think nothing of playing a member of the Race, even though they be honest and reliable, jumped on the bus and took the charge of abusing him and knocked him down the stairs. Saunders, the employer of Dabney, was in court and testified that he received a visit from a friend of the deceiver, and had have the charge withdrawn. This was the evidence introduced to clear the white doctor after he had wrongfully and wilfully beat the porter. It was proven that the porter was the chemist in the wrong, that he acted no part of a gentleman or civilized citizen. Such actions of white men of his stripe and decisions in court are the south and cities like Richmond, where not even a fair decision is given them in court—where white men are law unto themselves. The way they are going to feel the need for justice and soon they will wake up, finding it too late to treat them decently, for they will be off to parts of the country where they are treated with more justice and humanity.

Keep Body Fit—Circumciseion To keep the body fit, perform a circumciseion malfunction or obstructive element in connection with the body should be removed and the body kept up as nearly as possible. If the body is not in instance, ingrowing toenails will inter- force with body fitness; bunions, corns and twisted and distorted toes will also motion of the body, a graceful easy loco- motion of the body. Circumcision Circumcision is necessary to keep up body fitness. Circumcision means the preparation or removal of the forearm of the orchis with a scapel or scissors, etc. Many adults have neglected this very necessary operation: some have neglected it by realizing that they are not parents, or those who had charge of them. Others have neglected this very necessary operation on account of fear of their tongues repaired. Age for Circumcision A gentleman wrote us just a few days ago inquiring at what age one becomes too old to have an operation for cirrhosis, and he was 28 years of age, and had been married six years; although he experienced great discomfort on account of the long prepuce, yet, he had been told it was not necessary for circumcision performed on account of his age. In reply to that gentleman, we would state that one is never too old to have as simple an operation as circumcision performed, so long as the performance will be performed with the same comfort. We would advise that this operation be performed in early childhood life—within the first year of a child's life of the male child, it is often done within Benefits of Circumcision It will promote the even growth of the child. It will prevent nervousness, convulsions, promotes cleanliness of body and keeps it it. It prevents choeron or St. Vitus dance, itching, scratching, irritation, and often prevents masturbation in the male youth. Enepithecic fits have been greatly relieved and reduced by performing circumcision. In the adult circumcision adds greatly to the comfort of the organ, and too, circumcision adds greatly to the comfort and enjoyment of the SICK LIST Mrs. Julia Carter, 19 East Twenty-ninth street, is recuperating and getting ready to go to her home at Abbeyville S..

EDITOR'S MAIL Having a strong desire to be of some service to my people, my restless mind was at last turned to a scheme that I am more aware of to our business men. I have a great sense of the Colored people are not patronizing our enterprises, and in order to reduce this percentage, I am going to advocate ONE DAY IN EVERY MONTH of our purchases with our merchants. Unless this idea gets into their heads there is absolutely no chance for the young man here after he finishes school. We have hundreds of good men, graduates here, working in the field, and we are ever so efficient, there is no chance for or promotion. My slogan will be one day in every month to deal exclusively with Negro merchants. Simply give them the idea and the habit will grow. C. H. Heard was in Montgomery Saturday. — A Subscriber, Montgomery, Ala. CHICAGO OCT.14,1916 marital state. It prevents adhesion of the prepure and retention of smegma under the same. The Time It Takes for Circumcision The gentleman desires to know how long would be off duty. We state in reply thereto, that the time it takes to perform this operation is very insignificant, a simple operation, easily performed by a nurse, and form this operation under a local anaesthetic by the use of cocaine for de-dening of pain, but most surgeons as a rule, give a general anaesthetic, using local anaesthetic and men and boys to be able to return to their work within 24 or 48 hours after their operation; but, we would advise four or five days or a week to rest after the operation, and consequently, after care, and as a rule, patients do better in the hospital than in their homes. Advice to Parents Parents should see to it that their male children are early and properly circumscribed as above stated as it will increase the risk of infection, will add to the nervous stability of no child, prevent disease and if the youngster should be so unfortunate as to become infected with any venereal taint, it can be better treated and easily cured by those who has not been properly circumscribed. Don't indulge in the fallacious idea that your child is too young to have this operation performed, or that it will be difficult to be treated by it, is your duty to instruct, guide and protect the children until they reach the age of reason. Therefore, you should not shift the responsibility by indulging in the operation until you feel the growth in the development into manhood of your child by having this operation performed.

STAMPS RETURNS HOME J. E. Stamps, business manager of the Wabash Avenue Y. M C A., took a trip to Houston, Tex., presumably on a short trip. He went however, to see all Jessica McCain, the most charming young women. He has seen her before-in fact, all arrangements had been made; the question was whether things to be said were "die the knot." All Houston turned out to see the bridal party and the same evening Mr. and Mrs. Stamps were on Chicago and are now domiciled at 3890 North Michigan Road back on his job Monday morning and gave the Defender man an ad for the paper.
