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

VOL. 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

former visit here, and captivated the large audience with her art and personality. Her work has the real punch and whether it is a song number or a seleccion, it is same. The riot didn't start, however, until Moss & Frye, who closed the bill, started operations. The act is a real knockout, a scream from start to finish, and Frye started everybody by putting the act open on the Pantages time next week and closed a real yodelville bill that will tax Low Cantor's booking ingenuity to equal.
The last half half last week consisted of Sherlock Holmes, who were contractionists and acrobats extraordinary, Bert Grant, lately featured with Dave Marlon's World of Frolics, showed that he hasn't lost any of the ability that made him a box office attraction in the sensation and he put his song numbers over us of yore. Estella Harris & Co. continued in popularity and was mainly responsible for the turning away of a thousand people Sunday night. Campfire and La France & Co. trained police and a buckling Jessica closed the bill.
Ora Criswell, the popular comedienne, in a character called Hollyn, is the head einer here this work and is going great, and she is a great singer, song numbers and a brand new line of talk that is a scream. Walker & Brown, formerly with the Billy King Stock Co., is a comedian who gets much mitt, and the bill is completed by the Syncomputed Three, two clever young women and a corked comedian whose work is a howl from start to finish.
The Musical Miller Co. moved down here from the 55th street house and are cleaning up us usual. The work of this group is the most aggregation of this kind and many novelties are offered, chief among which is the big musical turn with which they hit. The comedy of Felix Miller and the dancing of Kid Bumpksy are features.
The Lincoln Stock Co. opened here again this week, presenting the musical comedy, The Country Boy, to crowded houses. The cast includes Mac Brown, Larguire Browne, Jennette Jordan, Lilly Browne, Arval M. Taylor Browne, Ellis, Hilda O. Thompson, James Burris, Greighton Thompson, DeKoven Thompson, Edward S. Wright, Billy DeMont, R. G. Doggett, Anthony Byrd and Leonall Monngas.

The Conspiracy is the offering of the Laffayet Stock Co. this week. It is a great play and is drawing an excellent attendance. Vaudville and photo plays here on Sundays.

Mule Bradford is coming to The Grand but he isn't coming alone. He brings his equally famous partner, Miss Jeanneette, with him, the engagement being for the Mule Bradford and Jeanneette day, Oct. 18. Bradford and Jeanneette is the name of the team, and they are popular all over the country. The act is peculiar, in that they use only their own song numbers. Mule being a writer Brooks type, they are Brooks type. They come to The Grand after a long and successful run at the Standard, Philadelphia, where they were starred in the "Made in Harlem" company, an all star aggregation of twenty-one male. The patrons of The Grand are in for a treat, as the Mule is a riot, always.
Etta Gross, who has been in the show business since a way back when things were right, was a caller at this office on Monday. She was accompanied by Esa the Grand last week whom she worked at the Grand last week dancing speculations which made her famous. Miss Gross accepted this engagement as a breaker of the long jump from St. Paul to New York, in which place she intends taking up a permanent residence. St. Paul is her second month. St. Paul visiting Eva, Browna King, King wife of Deputy Sheriff Frank Kingry, who gets 'em when he goes after 'em. Miss Gross, left the city this week.

One of the best bills ever seen at this house opened with Paul & Pauline, a crackerjack team of swinging ring archtops, and a girl with a talk that had plenty of class. Love & Kipling, who followed, is one of the best talking acts in vaudeville. They have a peculiar little plot that they carry out with a stump and a calling card. Madam Fairfox & Son is an exceptionally strong team of entertainers. They use a comedy sketched introduction of the song and the story, and offer the cellist her was strong enough to elicit a legitimate encore.

REALIZATION
The big feature, The Rovilization of a Negro's Ambition, has created the great, moving picture houses along the Stroll, and has drawn record crowds. 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. Journeyed all the way from that town to Chicago to close a deal for three days booking at the theater. 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. Watch for "The Trooper of Co. K."

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.

He fought with valor, led by Boyd and Morey.

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-

perience. Clara is a little disappointed with Joe, while Jimmy is thoroughly disgusted. Clara gets an idea from seeing her little brother playing soldier with the army, with its regularity and discipline. Clara be a good thing for Joe. Joe being assured that he would get plenty to eat in the army, straightway enlists, which is all displeasing to Jimmy. Several of Joe's enemies do duty with Company K. 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. The Carolina Girls is destined to among vaudeville acts of the first class, the hearted under the guiding hand of Jim Vaughn, who directed the Smart Set Co. last season.

Brazilian Consul Speaks
R. S. Abbott, editor and publisher of the Chicago Defender, in a very appropriate speech, presented Hon. Stuart R. Alexander. His address was short, but he enthusiastically held. 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. The country of the nation has engaged her for a week early in 1917. It can be truthfully said, Mme. Brown charmed her audience and hugged her and her Race several notches higher. She has also been a musical world and set a precedent almost impossible to be surpassed.

CAROLINE GIRLS
Teenan Jones' big *net*, the *Carolina Girls*, eight people, featuring Jimmy Marshall and Emmett Anthony, the popular young comedian, opened at the Academy on Monday and created a great and funny show, sufficiently a singing and dancing act with just a loose logue to put a strain of clean comedy through it all. The six girls, who form the nucleus of the act, are excellently the same and form a chorus, which it would be hard to imagine without a drop is used and the costing is great. Along this line it is easily one of the best acts in vaudeville, Mr. Jones having been very liberal in his expenditures, numbers, millimeters, etc. the props costing them figures. The art runs twenty-one minutes and there is more action in it than in many acts of twice its length. Eight逗你 members wore offered and every one of them bang. The same can be said of the dances, and if the appreciation shown by big audiences at the Academy) is to be seen as a criterion, the success of the act is to be determined to take its place among the acts of the first class. It was rehearsed by JVaughn, who directed the Smart Set Company last season. The roster: Caroline Trimble, Caroline Elda, Caroline Rice, Carolino Brown, Carolino Harris and Caroline Simmons.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
'FORBIDDEN FRUIT'
Paula Shay and Everett Butterfield, two of filmdom's greatest artists, and an all star cast will be seen in the big sensational drama, "Forbidden Fruit," which stars Sunday and Tuesday for two days, Sunday and 16th. 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.

ANSWERS
The following missile was hurled onto the top of the old rolltop desk too late for publication last week. It has a great moral and shows the importance of shouldering other people's burdens: CAIRO, Ill.—Mr. Tony Langton. 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. I am, FRIEND.
CHAUFFEUR QUARANTINED

Upon hearing this, Baker made a harsh retreat and did not stop until he reached the sanitarium where he was employed. The Philadelphia authorities wanted him back home but he was not time the disease was pronounced, so they sent a messenger to the doctor's residence for Baker. The chauffeur was okay that, because the child was removed from the quarantine was lifted in eight days. He is back on the job.

CHILI SAUCE, N. M. — Dear Mr. Tony: I read your column all the time, and last week I saw the name of an actor that I used to keep company with. He and I rehearsed an act four years ago, and the night we tried our act out some of his hands played a joke on him, and three vegetables and potatoes and other vegetables and dodged everything, but I got hit in the eye with a tomato, and it nearly knocked my block off. Of course, if it had just been a plain tomato it wouldn't have hurt so bad, but the furious when I threw it in a can. I get furious when I threw it in a can. I get furious went out, and when they brought me to, my partner was gone, and I've been cooking on a sheep ranch ever since. His name is Plimpington, and he see you wrote last week from you, you please publish his full address, you please him, and will forgive him if he asks. Do this and ease an aching heart, and oblige, ALBLOOTER MUSHO.

The Lincoln Athletic Club, winners of last year's independent western championship, started off the season Sunday with a victory over the Cornell's (white) of the Chicago Football League.
Lincoln chose to kick off, and a Cornell man fumbled, Rhodes falling on the ball and was down on the Cornell's 18-yard line. The Buetner playgrounds at Thirty-third street and Wentworth avenue, was crowded with Cornell admirers. Two line plunges by Rhodes and Harvey from where the little hero of last year's Columbia game, Fred Reeves, went over for a touchdown. Wilson failed at goal.

Laporte, Ind., Sunday Afternoon.—American Giants, or rather a team of All Stars, under the guidance of Andrew Rube Foster, who cavorted around first base, was beaten by the LaTeenagers, to College boy Charles Johnson underook to some of his former curves and the white lads took him serious enough to bat out thirteen singles. The Giants filled the sacks in the first frame, but were unable to show anyone across the pan. Some gone when the corners were occupied and the Mann could do was to sky to Mitchell. Jenkins opened the fourth with a triple, but "Rube" grounded out, Jenkins holding third. Mann fanned and Brazelton was set down on strikes. Two got on but there was nothing doing. Johnson doubled in the seventh. He was stranded on the keystone stone when the Beaver infeld pulled off some lightning and sparkling plays. Beavers Score Easily. The palace was 725, but there were easily another 275 that either jumped the fence or saw the motor races and game from the outside.
Although the Beavers had chances in the first half, they were unable to man around until the fifth. After Corby had fled out in this round Arnfield got back to the ball and Corby's latter was playing deep and fumbled.
JOHNSON CHALLENGES
Since the battle at Denver for the lightweight championship between Welsh and White, the fans through the country have come to the conclusion that Welsh will win. Many experts have picked John Dunley as the logical opponent of Welsh. Paddy Donnelly, who is looking after the business interests of Leo Johnson, is willing to post a forfeit of $1,000, which he will pay to the championship with either Kilhane or Welsh. Mr. Donnelly is so anxious to get either of the champions in the ring with his man that he is willing to allow the manager of either champion to select the referee, his weight, and is also willing to allow Johnson to play his match suitable to either of the champions, winner take all.

CHICAGO DEFENDER SERVICES
St. Louis, Mo. Oct. 13—The season is fairly on at the Future City Athletic Club and the followers of the boxing game may expect some royal entertainment this year by some of the Race's boxing. The Future City Club is for junior Brooklyn Tommy Sullivan and he has as his promoter of Colored shows the very efficient Sam Dixon. Mr. Dixon a few years ago was well known to the patron of the squared arena and has a boxing ring in his back. At the Future City entertainments he is matchmaker and referees all the Colored bouts.

to shape to plow through its vegetation.
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.

PROPER SPIRIT
Lima, Ohio, Oct. 13—One of the most remarkable protests ever published in a newspaper, emanating from the pen of a man who was a slave to the Race, who lives in this city, came out in a recent issue of a local publication a few days ago. 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.
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. Among them were: Mr. and Mrs. William Jones of Cristfield, Md., who has come to spend a day with them at our relatives here. * Miss Lillian Jones of 1515 Baltic avenue, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Jones, has returned home from a ten-day visit to Philadelphia, where she has been enjoying her time with her man of North Connecticut avenue left on a business trip to New York City. * Mathew Robinson has returned home after a period of two weeks from Baltimore, Md., where he has been visitig the city, and Cutlett and Helen Currie, two of Atlantic City High's most popular young ladies, have returned home from a long stay from the city on their vacation period. They note to us that their time in the city has been friends and relatives in Philadelphia, West Chester, Ft. W.: Washington, D.C.
men and Richmond, Va. * Among the young men who have ventured to leave home for the fall months are Harold Brown of Baltic avenue, James Jones of Roseau avenue and Frank Scott of Nebraska avenue. * Hilton Kimbrough, one of the Vandals' huxy guards, has returned home after a trip of five days in and around Philadelphia. * Mr. Ed. and Bude Morgan of Philadelphia just arrived his first winter at the sea shore and here we heartily welcome them to our city. * Mr. Maco Morrris has returned to Lincoln university after an extended tour through Virginia and the Ohio, and Bude Morgan of Philadelphia, who was a resident at the shore during past season and is now attending the Jefferson School of Dentistry at Philadelphia, made a flying trip to the shore last Thursday. * Fred Johnson of Ona is spending the winter in Philadelphia. * Our career at the Atlantic City's most popular young man is spending a few weeks in Philadelphia. * Mr. Bacchus White, who has been a resident of the shore for the past five years, has left this city for Rochester, home. * Miss Eunice Bunce makes his future N.

With the Vandals.
I will not only state that this young club promises to produce one of the fastest quintettes in this part of the country, but that it bids well toward a banner year in general growth, and this means that her newly elected officials, Theo L. Swayne now ex-president, has stepped aside and his shoes are ably filled by Carl Briscoe, who served last year as vice president. From this man the organization expects to be a leader in the expectations of himself, as he has put afoot one of the greatest campaigns ever attempted by a boys' club. With the nid of Mr. C. M. Cain, the Y. M. C. A secretary, the club has started on a $500 grant, and he has been spent in conveniences for her bachelors players and patrons. In this struggle the club needs the assistance of all well wishers and friends, in order that a success shall be insured, and now I will ask even if it is nothing column to contribute, even if it is nothing $30 cents, to this noble campaign. All done thankfully received by the secretary of the Y. M. C. A. 1711 Arctic avenue.
A Pleasant Evening
A house party was tended the friends of Miss Marie White of Maryland avenue Wednesday evening. The time was Wednesday evening, the dances, which proved to be enjoyable present. As a closing climax, a healthy repast was served. Among the guests were Miss Martha Jackson of this city, Sarah Kearns of this city, Thomas, Lillian Roberts and Marie White, hostess; Mr. Frank Johnson, James Bailey of New York, Oscar Whit-Clurence Wilson of this city, Thomas and Daniel Brown of Philadelphia, Pa.
Memories of One of Our Race
A large delegation of Atlantic County Republican League members attended the funeral services of the late Auldrich ("Bull") Atkinson last Thursday evening, who died at his home, 2225 Baltic avenue, on Monday and who for many years attended the city hall. The body formed at the house of the league and marched to the home of the deceased and then accompanied the body, to the St. James church on New York and Arctie avenues, where some were held. Mr. Atkinson will long be remembered by many of our city, as he has been an active member of numerous unifying race problems. For this he has been well rewarded with honor and his funeral services were heavily attended, it being the most get standing room in the church, which is the largest in the city, as early as 9:30 o'clock. The active members of the league who were named as palebearers were: John Harriss, Nelson Lewis, George Corsel, J. Bowden, George Raymond and James Auld. The palebearers include J. S. Weber, George Washington, John Scarr, Charles H. Johnson, J. Williamson and Lewis Jenkins.
The remains will be shipped to Washington on Friday morning, where interment will be made in the family lot. The deceased is survived by a wife and two children.

would have us believe.
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.

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

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.

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. Jewish people, and in all intelligent people, believe in this simple, heal-
