Corunna, Mich., Oct. 20.—County Clerk Nichols has been notified that the long-contested suit of Clarence D. Gaines for damages against the Grand Trunk Railway company, twice heard in the Circuit court and reviewed twice by the Supreme court, has ended in a victory for Nichols, who was charged with the damage of the Supreme court alluring the lower court's decision.
Gaines, a car repairer employed in the Durand yards in December, 1911, volunteered to assist some white workers in the construction of the freight gear. When he struck it a heavy blow with a hammer, the gearing was broken and a flying piece of metal struck Gaines in the jaw, inflicting severe injuries. He sued for $5,000 and a jury ordered him to pay $1,000. When a new trial was denied, the case was appealed and the Supreme court sent it back for retrial.
After the second trial had gotten underway, Nichols was sitting for Judge Miner, directed the jury to return a verdict of no cause of action, ruling that Gaines was not entitled to recover because he was not performing labor included in his duties as a judge, or to him, when the accident occurred. The Supreme court affirmed this decision.

DOWN ON THE LEVEE IT'S APPLE TIME
Staff Correspondence
St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 20.—When the steamer Dubuque bubbled a signal a mile above the landing place at the foot of Vine street at noon the other day, the levee in front of the Streetfus line barge, where she was to land, became a transformed scene of bustle and excitement. Routabouts poured forth from levee hatchts, boarding houses, etc., from their shuttles and gathered for the work of unloading her cargo of apples. A clerk came from office of the steamboat company with a set of maps, nets, and nails, which the workers were to be paid a penny for each barrel rolled from the ship. The passengers were hardly off before these stalwart exponents of Race brawn started rolling barrels, each man holding five barrels in place, passed the clerk. Five barrels in place, each man safely in the hands of some of the men, would hasten to the nearest shore. The crew would more thrillly keep at it until the work was done. The more adept at rolling the barrels succeeded in gathering 200 of those colina. It was said on the ship that the more man make as much as from the barrels 7,000 barrels.
St. Louis is the apple mart for points miles upstream. Calhoun County has the great apple growing counties of the Mississippi valley, is without railroads. Calhoun County is from Ashley street to St. Louis has been receiving $260,000 a day and the barrels are plied with water from Ashley street to the Free bridge. These restuothouses are an independent set of men. Only recently the steamboat crew and the barrels are plied with help. The men struck, when other workers over the country had striking $100 a month as high as $100 a month for their work. The lines tried hiring white men to take their places, but soon found this plan unworkable. They stand up under the strain of this very arduous work. Now the men are back enjoying a practical monopoly of the harvest which comes at this time of the year.

Chief McLaughlin co-operated heartily with Major Allen Washington.

A Hampton brigade plained the mechanism of a chemical extinguisher, and a reel of motion pictures drove home the truth that safety equipment is also possible to prevent many fires from getting under great headway.

The police have learned that several members of the big posse which scoured the city and country for miles around came up with a plan of 300 yards from the scene of the attack. He was out of breath and greatly excited. He was able to reach the woods hunting apples. Thinking the girl's assailant had been a negro, the posse did not arrest him. He has since been known, however, and the police are positive he is hiding in or near this city.

half, only three being in the entire lineup. F. E. Gordon presented an act that was a cross between a slight of hand performance and an omelet factory, as all his tricks but one had the assistance of the festive hen fruit. The props in the Gordon act are expensive, inasmuch as he works in one and as none of the "front rowers" were seen during the show. The act is based on the guarantee variety. Hayward's Croatia is a beautiful musical novel introducing, besides clever work by a string octet, songs and native dances. The big noise of the bill was the team of Wilson & Wilson, a standard act that has always been guaranteed to suit. The comedy offered by them was clean and fast and the song numbers went over with a bang. It is refreshing to see a team of comedians work just enough and the Wilson is operation time themed. They are the comedians for their paints. The bill closed with the big European troupe of acrobats, the Six Castillons.
The last half last week had Patricia flashing her popular week's engagement. Aside from her they had Nole, Jista & Nole, a good bicycle act; Moore & Jenkins, an excellent team of cork artists, whose song and dance numbers really counted. The band called "The Old Mineral Man" which was full of heart interest, and the Four Pierros, European acrobats and balancers.
An excellent bill is being presented this week and business is fine. Toy and Buddy Brown, real favorites, are playing a return and are offering a new line of work that goes well. Certido Saunders, the clever singer of popular songs, whispers her new business and earns her an unsatisfying funner and her personality, and Ford & Ford, a good singing, talking and dancing pair, complete a well balanced bill.
In "A Child of the Paris Streets," the Triangle drama, with Mae Marsh and Tully Marshall in the leading roles, Mille, Dufrane, queen of the Paris Apaches, pleads with a judge for lenency for her judge is indignant and condemns the Apache to the galleys. Heart-broken, Mille, Dufrane, who loves this boy better than her own life, retires to the den of the Apaches, by the walls of Paris, waiting with a grim resolve to revenge her older boy. Mille, Dufrane gains access to the home of the judge, kidnaps the judge's child, Julie, and escapes it to the hangout of the Apaches.
Years elapse and Julie has grown up in the environment of crime and similar, Dufrane and her son devote their time to educating Julie in all the arts of the Apache gang. She is taught to steal with such expertise as to escape the shrewdest of the police. Always in the background, Dufrane sees a living reminder of the judge, which she is persecuting upon the judge.
Julie, with the instinctive refinement of the noble blood from which she comes, rebels against the life she is leading and refuses to stent. For this she is severely beaten by Mile. Dufrane, and threatened with the dire punishment which all traitorous Apaches receive, Iz, dath in strangulation. Made desperate by frightful hostilities out of the hands of Mile. Dufrane, Julie backs her few belongings and runs away.
Having met a young artist of the Latin Quarter, Julie goes to him for refuge. Returning from the carnival late at night, the young artist finds Julie asleep in his room. From this time on, the artist attempts to protect and safeguard her, but she ventures out into the streets, and she carries her back to their den. Mile Dufrane, her hatred aroused, orders her band to strangle Julie.
Meanwhile Julie's old nurse, who has been reduced to selling trinkets on the streets, has seen Julie carried into the theater, warns the judge. Also the young artist lays out rushes with thegendarmes to thestronghold, where Julie is rescued just as theApaches are about to put her to death. Julie and the artist are united in marriage, blessings of the judge. The great feature of the theater on Sunday, Oct. 22, with matrine starting at 2:30. A screening two-part Keystone comedy comes with it.

"THIS WAY OUT"
Irvin C. Miller's Play, "Jake's Family," Stolen By Leigh Whipper
Chicago, Ill. Oct. 16, 1916.
It is with regret that I have to announce that the play now being offered in the cast by Mr. Leigh Whipper, called This Way Out," is none other than my own biographical play, "Jake's Family," which he stolen and is using without my permission.
The story of my play is well known, for I have produced it in Chicago, Indianapolis, Memphis, Detroit, Mobile, Nashville and Jacksonville, Fla., and it was a much talked of play. When I produced it at the Crown Garden, Indianapolis, with Doo Doo Green as Uncle Jake and Mr. Tim Ousey's two young boys as part of his family, it followed the columns of the Freeman by Mr. Leigh who can bear me out in this statement.
I make this announcement as a warning to managers, as I intend to take legal action against Mr. Whipper at once. Yours very truly.
IRVIN C. MILLER.

WHITE RATS
New York, Oct. 20.—With a view to making the aims, objects and purposes of the Colored branch of the White Rats' Union thoroughly understood by the Race vaudeville artists in the city, Mr. William H. Farrell, chief organizer of Local No. 15, held at the New Lincoln theater (courtesy extended by that management) on last Friday evening, Sept. 8, the first open meeting of the organization and offered as the principal speakers no less personages than Mr. Harry Mountford, the international executive of the White Rats' Actors' Union, and Mr. Fess Carr, local executive. Considering the nature of which are at present out of the city, the meeting was attended by a fair-sized body of professionals, who manifested large interest in the proceeding. Conspicuous among those present were the faces of many of the old-time performers.
Mr. Mountford's address in the main was along the lines of strength there is to be had through organization. He further discussed unionism as being the all-important factor to the ends of gaining fair treatment from theater managers and agents. He heid out an interest in every variation of the entire country to join the White Bowl, whose membership now exceeds 10,000 people, so that equal protection and opportunities of that organization could be enjoyed by all alike. He let out no words of the slice hammer or big stick variety to compel enrollment in the union, but he did make plain to every person gathered there that the time was not far off when the White Bowl Actors would be able to influence the play of players or even the theater operated in the United States. During his speech Mr. Mountford cited many points in illustration of even now tremendous power of this great organization. One, a recent occurrence, which happened in St. Louis, Mo., he said, was a sister team that played at a theater for a week. On completing their final act on a Saturday, and wanting to make the night frightful for our play they were booked to show, they rushed into the theater manager's office for their pay, and were promptly chased out by that individual with a butcher knife,
Realizing the time they would lose in bringing suit against the house for the money, this team took advantage of their membership in the White Rats' Union, and notified the speaker of the outrage committed. The following morning that theater manager received a visit from the White Rats' St. Louis representative with a demand for the actresses' salaries. The ammager emerged inhumbly. Then, said the representative, go behind and you will every act on your bill closed. The manager went behind and found every act ready to move out unless he immediately paid those lady performers. He compiled at once.
In the audience, though, there were a few people who took exception to the White Rats' attempt to unionize Race perforators in the face of an attempt made on their part a few years back to impede the progress of the artist. Notable among these were the protests advanced by Mr. Leon Williams, an old-time showman and an ex-president of the Colored Vaudeville Benevolent Association. Mr. Williams asked Mr. Mountford to kindly enlighten him on the reason back of this movement. He further stated that it was only a few

years back that the White Rats had backed Walter Kelly (the Virginia judge) in a fight on the late William Hammerstein to reduce the then famous team of Williams and Walker from the position of headhairs of the Hammerstein Victoria theater. Mr. Williams contended that the White Rats then did not want the Colored actors, and that he wished to be informed what was at the bottom of this movement to make them wanted now.
Mr. Mountford stated in reply to Mr. Williams' questions that at the time of the mentioned occurrence he had not become affiliated with the White Rats, which was then composed of only a small body of members. But that the company for 1807 had arrived in this country for the first time, and a short time afterward had joined the association. From that time to 1911, he stated that he had devoted his entire energies to developing the strength of the White Rats Union by organizing branches everywhere that an actor or actress could be found. In to 1915 he had resigned from the union, and in 1916 his years to resume his work of organization he had started developing in previous years. At the end of Mr. Mountford's speech the audience signified its appreciation by long and earnest applause. Many impromptu speeches were made by professionals in the audience, who voiced their thanks for themselves and for the opportunity of becoming identified as members of such an organization as the White Rats Actors Union.
Object of White Rats

One of the very best big time acts in vaudeville will occupy the honor spot on the bill at The Grand all next week. They come here direct from a fifty consecutive week run throughout the big circuits of the East, and with them they are bringing a reputation that has grown from a modest local Chamber ofiegement. As a character actor, especially of the Colestial type, Stevens has no equal, and his partner, whose ability is as great as his frame is large, is one of the best of the Race's comedians. Both artists are vocalists of no mean ability and they both claim the Wendy McGrath role. The sure of a fine welcome at The Grand, and the "regulars" are always happiest when the program board flushes the names of old time favorites.
MUSIC
A CORRECTION
In the issue of last week the fact that all five of the big dance numbers used by Teenan Jones' big act, the Carolina Girls, were rehearsed and staged by Hazel Thompson Davis was not mentioned. As this feature of the act is one of the most important points Miss Thompson deserves special attention for her excellent work. Hazel Thompson Davis is the Race's leading teenager along this line and was formerly one of members of Aida Overton Walker's Happy Girls Company which created a sensation in vaudeville just previous to the demise of the famous star.

EVIL WOMEN DO
EVIL WOMEN DO
Because a well bred and beautiful girl objected to her father marrying, as his second wife, a Parisian adventurer, she paid dearly. The senior old woman, who was the woman and in the end lost his fortune. That was not all, for the adventures so demeaned herself, with others of her kind, that she put pearl necklaces on her course by taking his own life. Meanwhile his daughter, driven to desperation by the sensation of the sinful wife, had left her husband, being wrecked on the roots of adversity.
How all things were set right, even to the visitation of retribution upon the iniquitous woman, will be made clear at the Washington theater during the 24, and evening on Monday, Oct. 24, and evening on the night of Oct. 29, when "The Evil Woman Do" will be displayed in Bluebird photoplay with Elsie Jane Wilson playing the adventures; Francella Billington, the grievously distressed heroine, and Beverly McKinnon, the fish old man, who was overcome by woman's wiles. Hobart Henley, lately prominent in the "Graft" serial; Sidney Dean, Tom Lockhart, Douglass Geward and C. N. Hammond will be in the supporting company. The Hobart's famous detective story, "The Clique of Gold," the entertaining qualities of "The Evil Women Do" will be developed in its stirring situations, gripping episodes and faithful portrayals of characters in Parisian life. Good, old-fashioned melodies, "The Clique of Gold," cleverly acted, and produced with the usual care Bluebird pays to the scenic equipment and photography of its subjects. The play is entirely different in theme and execution than the comedy of the usual care Bluebird comes direct from there to the Washington, by special permit. Positively no one under 21 years of age will be admitted.
UNBROKEN ROAD
"The Unbroken Road," featuring the popular movie actress, Mary Nash, who is surrounded by remarkably efficient support, comes to The States on Saturday, Oct. 21. It is a remarkable story from the story of a poration, and is sensational in the extreme, and in five big acts. The story tells of John Radford, who becomes the guardian of Constance Turner (Miss Carol) political aspirations cause him to neglect his job, who possesses a secret love for him.
Walter Dover, the son of a political boss, accompanies his father to Radford's town, where he meets Constance, with whom he falls in love. The attachment is opposed by Radford, but Constance believes that her father resents, reacts any interference. Constance is persuaded to slope with Walter Dover. At a roadhouse she learns of his purpose, and leaves him. She is overtaken by a storm and inured by a falling tree. She returns to her home, but Constance believes that her father has shined with young Dover, who again seeks her out, receives the girl's forgiveness, and promises immediate marriage. Constance is easily persuaded by Walter, who seeks his father's consent to marry her, but this is refused. Not wishing to marry Walter, Walter consummates a mock marriage. Radford, in the meantime, has advanced politically, and is informed by Walter's father that he has picked him out as the nominee of his party for governor. A letter written by a friend of Walter's, who participated in the mock marriage is found by Constance, and for the first time, time she learns of Walter's duplicity. Constance informs Walter's father of her relationship with his son. The political boss dispatches his son abroad and plans to get Constance out of the way to avoid publicity. As the result of such harassment, Constance convicted of a crime of which she is entirely innocent. Radford is elected governor.
Constance, now confined in prison, be-
came a victim of the war. She was a
wife, worker, who seeked her, pardon-
ment, and release.

and the governor, Radford recognizes Constance. Radford pardons her against the protest of the political boss, Dover. The first rupture between Dover and Radford. The third nomination as governor, and is opposed by Dover, who seeks to gid rid of Constance through a bribe, which is refused. Constance meets Charles Garvan, a political leader and rival of Dover, and knowing his power, seeks to have him ally himself with the governor in the matter of renomination. Becoming infatuated with Constance, Garvan refuses unless Constance accepts his advice. The governor politically she offers to present her story of the wrongs committed by young Dover to the world, but Radford refuses to permit this. The governor's sure defeat for renomination, she again goes to Garvan and accepts his proposition. At a crucial moment in the convention, when Garvan is about to throw his votes supporting Radford, Walter, who has retreated to Constance and endeavors to force his nomination, then struggles ensues, which causes the overturning of a sieve, burning the convention hall and injuring Walter. The governor saves Constance and Walter from the arrests received by Walter prove fatal. His fessions completely exonerate Constance. Radford, at the adjourned convention, is renominated. Garvan endeavors to hold Constance to her promises, but the governor makes him realize that if he were to lose the nomination, he could never love him. Garvan realizes that his love for Constance is clean and pure and accepts her in marriage as his wife. Dover, losing his political power upon the disclosure of his acts, calls "The Unbroken Road" comes on a special permit, therefore no one under 21 years of age will be admitted.

ANSWERS
Clubfoot, Okla.—Dear Mr. Tony;
I am a young man who has had a
little experience in the show business,
having took the part of a
bloodhound in an Uncle Tom's Cabin
stage manager said that that I was
crackerjack and that all I needed
was a little training. I quit the
company because I couldn't get
along with one of the other hounds,
who had been with the show two
weeks ago. I was the place me
with some small company
can learn? I will gladly give you
half my salary, as I know I could
make good if I only had a chance.
Please answer. Yours very truly.
Reply—Friend Knack: I am sorry to have to inform you that it would be impossible to place you at present. The stock companies around these parts are either all filled up or are not using character actors to represent the characters tried to stick with the Tom show. While the part of a bloodhound is not a very choice one, if you had pald strict and careful attention to your work and hadn't have had a nines, you might have been playing the part of the ice in the second act by this time. However, I wish to impress upon your mind this fact: Under no circumstances it accepts money from performers. It is unprofessional. Member once when the great producer, Mr. Irvin C. Miller, offered me a half dollar. What did I do? He has never tried such a thing again. There are many people who Mr. Miller would do such a thing but I assure you, it really happened. You are just like the rest of them—so liberal. Actors usually are. The majority of them are so liberal that they don't care any more for a nickname, or a team of good mules. Let me hear from you some time in the spring. If you are able you might send me $2.35 and I will forward my little booklet, "Doing a Dashhound, or Cold at Both Ends and Warm in the Middle."—Editor.
Creampuff. Ws.—Dear Friend: Can you please let me know whether there is a market in Chicago for good moving picture scenarios? I have some la-las and I know if I could get the proper people that I could get the money. Here is a sample:
MOLLY THE MATCH GIRL
Molly McClink was a beautiful young girl, whose parents were poor and she had no years, but struggles to give Molly a musical education so that she might some day be a great star. To help, Molly sold safety matches on the streets and she was so beautiful she used to sell out quick and take the money from her father, who was unable to work on account of an awful dryness in his throat, which made it necessary for him to have wet buckets to his mouth both day and night. While Molly was in the wagon, a large, piece of the ice bouncing off her head. The president of the ice company heard of the accident and called at her house. He was so impressed with the girl's skills that he cared for her, set the mother in the house laundry business, and got the father a job tending bar.
Now, how's that for a picture?
Let me hear from you quick, as I need money.
ANTONY BONEHEAD.
Reply—Dear Boney: You are a great writer. The scenario market published with manuscripts at present however, and you need to wait a while. The part in your scenario that tells of the parents being poor but dishonest was very

The father's affection was a common one. There are many men who have the "dry pipes," as it is called by the best chropodists, who were struck by that cake of ice it shows. The ice man did right in marrying her. In doing that he saved the expense of having to pay any doctor bills, but I don't think very well in putting the old lady in business. It's not at all elevating. Now, he did best by the old man.

GRACE SUNDAY LYCEUM
Grace Sunday. Lyceum had another packed house on Sunday, Oct. 15. The speaker of the day was A. L. Jackson, executive secretary of the Wabash Avenue Association. He was invited by Julian Lewis, who said: "Mr. Jackson was the first speaker for the Lyceum and gave a stimulus to the club that has been felt ever since, and in order to duplicate that effect was invited to speak this afternoon. I take great pleasure in presenting the man who so ably represented Harvard as an orator in the 1940s and 1950s, who has persisted in his wonderful work on coming west to take charge of the Wabash Avenue Association."
Mr. Jackson spoke on the subject of "Christianity." In the course of his discussion he brought out the idea of community development in Christianity as analogous to community development in working principles of Christianity. He charged Christians with the work that has heretofore been delegated to the professional missionary and those occupied in practical callings, and exemplified the work of the Y. M. C. A. as carrying on the sort of work that every missionary has done. Mr. Jackson complimented the work of the student, officers and members in that they are accomplishing their share in this needy and important work.
Mr. Woolfok was a new singer to the Lyceum audience. W. G. Cuckerman pleasingly gave two numbers, one, "Asleep in the dark" and another, basso profundo solitario. Hilbert Stewart, pianist of ability and training, rendered Preludes 22 and 20, Chopin, and Nearer, My God, to Thee (variations), Feder. He has applied himself to Chopin and Woolfok, and he was a delightful. Mr. Stewart played both selections so well that the real music lovers became very enthusiastic over his wonderful playing. President Miss Moseley announced that within a few weeks the new music would be performed, cony could be used. Next meeting Oct. 29, 5 o'clock. Mrs. Alberta Moore-Smith is among those on the speaker's list.

Foster Brings Down His Bull Dogs After His All-Stars Lose and They Wail-Iop LaPorte
By Mr. Fan
Laporte, Ind, Oct. 20. *Ubke Foster et al. departed for Chicago at 7:10 last Wednesday evening over the New York Yankees' village colin. To get the four centuries Rube pitched his buildings (slang for the best team) against the Beavers and two teams. The game was not started until 3:05. The Beavers, having scored two in the fifth and four in the sixth, thought they united on the run in the seventh and they united on the run in the seventh. It was a very bad hunch. They stuck Jimmy Middleton into the box to hold in the fight, but the Beavers structured his batters, to go up and chop at them. The result was many meandowing grounders which the Beaver infenders could not see. They right through the aggregation had scored three runs and clinched the game. Four more were added in the ninth before any one was out and the team was out over the tree-tops. Duncan and Lloyd struck out intentionally. Franks refused to overworked scores were given the two overworked scores were given the chance to get their noses out of their books.
Whitworth Yanked
The Giants got seven hits all told, and seven of them were scratches. They were hit by the grounders, that bounded sky high, and they all can run some they usually beat them out. The Beavers also made the play, caused by over-eagerness. All that dough at stake made the locals very nervous and they were so excited they could not play. The Haskell & Barkers were well represented at the game, Maullin and Baumel and the Beavers the Donnelly, the catcher the Manager Daughday did the umpiring. Daughday took care of the bases, while Donnelly and the Beavers and they both did their work in good style. Middleton played first base until he went into pitch. After Jim took the ball, Donnelly and the Beavers the field to play the initial sack, Armfield went to right field and Maullin moved over to center. The switch in the position and the Beavers played horrible baseball in the last two rounds, Middleton himself presenting the Giants on a wild

WORKMEN EMPLOYED IN VARIOUS LINES
By B. C. Caution
Philadelphia, Pa. Oct. 20.—This big city of Philadelphia, otherwise known as the City of Brotherly Love, has nearly 115,000 inhabitants of our Race. What are these thousands of our Race doing? Are these questions; yes, and it will take many years to answer them to readers at large know just how these thousands are struggling with the vexing problems, labor, education, employment, business and professions in this
The Race workman—yes, we find our brother in nearly every line of work. He is a hard worker, strong and powerful unions have left down the bars. Far from it. Yet we find ourselves that we have broken through, for instance, when we have held our car was held up by a broken wire, and to my surprise I saw a black face of a man we knew. We see the Race workman working on a fine residence out in Lansdowne. They inform me they got in the union at the beginning of the year, we see the Race workman working with the white brother in many unions. In some unions not only not monitored, but fielded operations, the building is in very apparent. We see the Race bricklayer, mason, carpenter and mechanical working operations. In the department stores downtown we see our boys and girls we do not see but few salesgirls and salesmen. But when we consider our sister cities of New York and Boston, we do not see but few salesgirls and department store is to go in and make a purchase, the employment given to our sister cities is not so good, no to be looked down upon, particularly they are paid fairly good wages, with opportunity of advancement. Many of the downtown stores are Race men. Then, too, we see our girls in many cities we are only a few holding office positions or office lines are opening to the competent girl every day. We have no less eminent girls. We have a person to fill these office positions.
We find many engineers employed throughout Philadelphia. This applies to all electricians, engineers, Palmers and team members are employed throughout the city. It must be mentioned here that the many Race Indicators are located in the building field give employment to the workman in all these lines. In the upholstery field we find the Race man equally successful both the master and crew of the company, the firm of J. H. Williams & Co. on South Twelfth street, and Robert Davis on Twelfth second street. There are more individual shops scattered all over the city. Statistics gathered in the past ten days show there are more Race men employed in the city than any other city in the country, not only chauffeurs for private cars, but truck drivers, for garages and in auto truck factories and plants. In the hotels, while the best hotels employ help exclusively, we find several employers and practically all up town.
The day laborer is employed at good pay and is responsible for we find him working on all building operations, in manufacturing establishments, in manufacturing establishments to be seen everywhere. It is not from brotherly love we see him in all our lives. We are not us, and when fitted we can usually find employment. It can truly be said with confidence. Philadelphia, fonds along employment lines.

NEW HOSPITAL
Pittsburg, Pa. Oct. 20—Pittsburg is to have a hospital primarily for the care of men in distress of the Race. There are but nine hospitals of the Race. There are such hospitals such as Philadelphia, which has the Douglass Hospital: Chicago, the Chicago Hospital: Washington, the C.A. Freedman Hospital: Atlanta, G. One is now being built in New York city, but citizens here believe they will be able to attend the hospital ahead of the New York institution.
The Pittsburgh hospital is to be named the Mountaineer in memory of the great African American leader of the East end district of Greater Pittsburg. Application for the charter was made by Attorney Robert L. Vann of 618 Fourth avenue, in the Common Pleas curt.
The whitewind campaign for funds will be made by Brown, treasurer, April Rev. C. J. Powers. There were 101 subscribers to the petition for a charter, all leading members of the Race who are residents of this city.
Four graduate nurses have already been engaged, and they will form the nursing staff for nurses which will be conducted under with the hospital. One of the best known white surgeons in the city has given me the charge of the surgical work until such time as chief is appointed. With the exception of that one all the members of the surgeon's medical staff will be members of the Race. A building will be erected, according to the plans, capable of accommodating 10 patients. Mr. Vann stated on Saturday that more than millionaires already have promised to contribute liberally to the hospital fund.

which Kinkley was charged. His crime for which he paid the penalty his life was "big talk." He gave his life as a hero for the rights of an American citizen in the order that a lesson he taught to other felons felt the blood-thirsty mob carried him three miles into the woods, strung him up, riddled his body with shot, and burned it to Whitlock's actions were the only evidence of manhood that was displayed by the black men assembled in that crowd. He was forced to face the other Colored men to action for the mobbling of Kinkley. A white man lies safely in the same jail, for living. Whitlock threatened to wreak the arsenal vengeance on him if they lynched Kinkley.
teaching the "scene of the criminal crime," Kinkley was taken before the Rose, who struck him in the face and identified him as her assailant, begging him for her touch off the fire that was to consummate their relationship.
After a few moments' inspection of the stifling and revolving spectacle, I was connected with the close scrutiny, and decided best for me to return over the dusty road to Paducah. About fifty yards from the scene I was held by a man approaching me from the rear with, "Hey, there, whats your business out here?" I turned to see my questioner approaching with a delicate hand and a cracker had any nerve and felt that I could bluff him some, so to gain time to think I pretended not to understand him and allowed me to hit him. I repeated his question, and in reply I said, "Why, I just got to town and heard of some trouble out here and came out to see." "Oh," says he, "is that all? Well, the trouble is all over and you take that stifling scream to me." Believe me, I did. Thinking over the words of the song, "America," my country, 'tis of thee,' for which I fought but have no rights.

Rents Increasing in Harlem
The Race people of Harlem are at last awakening to the fact that they are being mulcted each month an outrageous indignation meeting held in School No 89, Lenox Avenue and 145th street, was evidence of this unrest. Why not leave Brooklyn? Why not indulge in Brooklyn? Here rents are in many instances half what is being charged in Harlem. There can be no comparison with those to be found in Harlem, so vastly inferior in every respect are those of the race, does not find the usual displeasure, real estate agent, the kind that Harlem, today is infested with. And the crying of the race men, Race men. Come out, people of Harlem to a decent place and live where you can breathe good, pure air; where "rear" necessary and the joy of living a reality.

. White Wings Got Increase
The Bureau of Standards and the Bureau of Municipal Research have recommended to the board of Estimate a substantial increase of salary for all men employed in the department. This increase will in all probability be ordered to take effect Jan. 1. The Race has a fair representation of men employed in the department, and benefits by this raise in pay. Incidentally, the fact that the fultian is slowly but surely taking predominance in the streets is more than ever becoming evident. The minimum salary has been fixed at $88 per year, two weeks' vacation, and two years' in the service. The positions are retained through civil service examinations, and are open to all, regardless of race, gender, marital status, or in spite of the attractiveness of the job we do not hesitate to say that the average Race man considers himself too much to work the streets or college garbage and ashes. He would rather be an elevator runner, making probably $25 or, at the most, $25. He would rather be comparatively easy and clean, is apt to appeal to the average Race man nowadays to the street cleaning department, but comparatively easy and clean, is apt to see more men of the Race, who possess no especial qualifications for some department positions. Information concerning the next examination may be obtained from Civil Service Commission, Municipal Building, New York.

Pastor Does Not Like the Idea of Separate Settlements in Manchester
Pastor Does Not Like the Idea of Separate Settlements in Manchester
CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE
Rochester, N. Y., Oct. 20—A plan to build a community settlement near here for many years has been opposed. Rev. Byrd (white) says that it is not fair to the Race citizens of Rochester all were in sympathy with the idea to build a community citizens from the south. No general section toward the plan has been considered.
Segregation is something that the north won't stand. He wont on to say that the members of the Race were not prepared to move to the south, for this Jim Crow move was not favored by all. A separate town soon would mean separate cites, theaters, restaurants, churches, colleges, villages not towered, the pastor. "We are all American in this work and would allow our way in this work and each other to rise, regardless of Race.

Saving Your Money
YOU HAVE HEARD about saving up for 2 rainy day—have you ever
thought about swing up for a pleasant time? Almost everyone has an ambi-
tion to BE something, or to DO something. And even with this ambition
thoroughly’ grounded and. the subject of almost daily thoughts, people po
right on spending every nickel they earn, often before they get it, and trust
blindly: to che goddess af fortune, who, if they only stop to think, never works
overtime for peuple who refuse to work overtime for themselves, |
Economy’ is the first step toward independence and freedom. Economy,
means the avoidance of all waste and extravagance and the application of
money to the best advantage. ‘The starting point of economy is the first
nickel, dime or dollar that is saved as a nucleus around which the whole
future may be built. No matter how nwuch money you carn, you are not a
financial success until you have learned to save some of it. Look back say
over five, ten or twenty years, estimate approximately, if you will, how much
money you have spent in wasteful ways. Think of the many dollars for which
“you have received no adequate return; then lay down this law for yourself: T
can Eve on not quite all I earn as well as on all that I earn or more than I
earn,
We have with usa class of people appropriately styled “strainers,” their
main object in life being to make a great outward show, to live and ‘dress a
little better than those with whom they associate even though they are com:
pelled to run heavily in debt to keep up the deception — deception which at
best is only for short duration—the crash must come sooner or later, and they
fall not to normal, but far below it, and seldom rise to the imaginary height
they once attained, unless they seek newer and greener fields and begin all
over; better and wiser for their costly experiment.
‘The baby crawls before it walks; the most successful business man had an
humble beginning, and even the world war nor built in a day, so though a.
convenient it is no disgrace to live on a dollar a day if you.are making but
two; in fact, it is the only thing to do if you ever expect to put aside for that
proverbial “rainy day.” Hard as it seems, there's a good deal of truth in the
saying, that the best friend in the world is money. Every man, woman and
child should stare a savings account. Don’t say, “How can I save anything,
when T have barely enough to live on{" Simply live on LESS, If you
haven't enough will power to save, stiffen up that will, and one of the best
known devices for the purpose is an obligation for you to mect every year oF
exery month, Not to provide for old age is to demolish in the morning the house
wherein we sleep at night. Don’t spend all you make and don't associate with
those who do, Don’t wait for the HARD TIME to come when you will be
forced to try t0 cash in some of the good fellowship you have spent so freely,
only to find that the friends your dollars have won have gone with those
self-same dollars. Begin saving NOW and hold your peace of mind with
your friendships,
When Force Supersedes Law
PRESIDENT WILSON is trying to get the public car long enough to
tell them that the S-hour railroad bill he was instrumental in having Congress
pass, was only a part of a plan he had devised to regulate strikes, but the pub-
lic seems loath to listen to any more of such doctrines, and instead of it being
a clever politital move, as doubtless the president and his advisors thought, it
has proven a boomerang and given his enemies a club bigger than the one so
deftly swung by the greatest of all Americans, Theodore Roosevelt. s:
With due respect to the claims of the Inboring people, it is high time an-
other course save bulldozing, the taking of life or the destroying of property,
was adopted, and when a handful of citizens, each up to the very pinnacle of
our government and force, through threats, the Jawmakers into passing bills,
just or unjust, the law abiding, self respecting citizen might just as well re-
sign himself to be ruled by the mob, for that is just what it is leading up to.
After all, who in the final analysis pays for the increase of wages? Isn’t
it the humble citizen, even to the one who is barely making enough to keep the
wolf from the door? These particular nien who threatened to strike are ex-
ceptionally well paid, some, it is understood, receiving as high as seven dollars
per day, and all making better wages than the average workman. Strange if
these men wished: to be fair they would not consent to leave the matter to
an arbitration board. But the Railway Brotherhoods say: “We cannot arbitrate
‘on a matter of principle; besides, we get the worst of it in arbitration.” Then,
holding a gun to the head of Congress, they force a decision in their favor.
Arbitration being: human, is not a perfect instrument. Neither are the
courts. But a citizen submits his case to the courts; if beaten, he accepts the
eecision as becomes a good citizen, knowing that, in the average, justice is
done, Why should employes or employers do otherwise? Why should they
have the privilege of enforcing their demands by yiolence or by threat? The
American people can very well stand appalled at the betrayal of Congress
while under duress of a fundamental principle of the Republic. Whether the
demands were right or wrong matters little; they'should have been submitted
in an orderly and law-abiding spirit to,a fairly constituted tribunal of arbitra-
tion, The Democrats have forced us to take a step backwards; it is to be hoped
the Republicans will put a check on ‘this growing mob spirit and bring order
cout of chaos, , .
