Johnson for murder has continued all week, and great interest is shown in the result. Colored people are especially interested because of the color line dispute, which was the cause of the killing. Johnson is an expert lather, who came to Chicago at the time of the Atlanta riots. He came to Chicago because he thought he was a sense of the word, but he found his mistake when he applied for admission to the Lathers' Union. He was denied on account of his color; refused work and intimidated whenever he secured a job. Finally, the clangers attempted to kill him, but the bulb missed him and struck his brother. Johnson was forced to learn Chicago twice. Once he went as far as Alaska, hunting for a chance to earn a living. Finally, hearing of the illness of his mother, he came back and tried to find her. He found her in securing a good contract for 300 home ninety-fifth street and vicinity, but as soon as Axel Alex, the Union business agent, found it out, he began his intimidation again.

The news of the Paducah lynching by the workers of the Illinois Central shops put the same bee in the bonnets of these men, but the members of the Race were ready to sacrifice their lives, to do or die like the brave Crispus Attacks in the Revolution. The south knows no law when it comes to the black man.

Democrats Trying to Disfranchise Voters The Democratic party is planning to disfranchise the Colored voters by sending out "suspect notices," requiring those who receive them to appear at the election commissioners' office and show cause why their names should not be erased from the registry books. It is their belief that the Colored voters will not take the time to protect their rights and not notice, and on account of their failure to appear their names will be stricken. This is the northern Democratic substitute for the southern Democratic "grandfather clause" to deprive the Negro voter of his legal right to vote or not. Colored voters are warned NOT. TO DISREGARD these notices. Go to the election commissioners' office when you get the notice or see the. Republican committeeman in the precinct where he will be the vote holder to do. This is of vital importance to the voters. CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE St. Louis, Mo.

Oct. 27—Despite the fact that a petition was sent to the heads of Allen University, Cole Blease, the former governor of the state and a man who cares nothing for the students of our women, spoke to the students of the University, who introduced him and so far as to say that "he was the best governor, South Carolina ever had." Well we wonder how much Chappelle was paid and how much he thought of himself in a Food Poem when he denounced the members who signed the bill so far as to call them back yard men. All who signed, were graduates of Allen. They are property owner, and love their Face, wouldn't sell it to no white man who had in him. It is hard to take a dose as he wants to hand the people calling himself a leader and thrusting upon us a Negro hating man like Blease for the sole benefit of making himself a "good nigger." These kind of men have no right to hide behind the cloak of the ministry.

The whites have also whitened on the Chicago Tribune because of its anti-lynching sentiment. PRICE 5 CENTS stocks and bonds given her by the late John R. Platt (white) during the nineteen years of their acquaintance. She gave up Saturday title to the large house at 236 Central Park West, near Eighty-fourth street. When Platt installed her there a dozen or more years ago, she "lived like a queen" with twenty seven words, and had a retinue of twenty seven them whites or Japanese. Her house and carrings, her gowns and her jewels were the talk of the neighborhood. One of Several Lodgers Now she is living in a furnished room on the premises and is but one of a number of lodgers there. She still has her automobile, a lounge chair, with a white cushion. She rode out in the car yesterday through Central park and sat up on the back cushions as stately as ever, her face concealed from view by two black vells. One by one her twenty servants have given up, and many of the coffees are vanished. The title to the house in Central Park West was relinquished by Hannah Ellis to satisfy a claim for money logged by Herman Lubetkik, an attorney at 35 Park Row. It was in London where she met when her admirer, Cornelius Williams, met Andrew H. Green (white), "father of Greater New York," whom he had mistaken for a rich glass manufacturer of whom he was jealous. His names are due, in three part, of depreciation in the value of her realty holdings during the last ten years. Platt gave her eight pieces of Manhattan property. When the income from them began to dwindle she borrowed money in order to maintain her real estate and meet her equities in the eight parcels were appraised by the court at $561,000. The first large parcel she lost title to in satisfaction of money borrowed was the six-story elevator apartment house at One Hundred and Thirteenth street and Amsterdam avenue. It was foreseen by the Metropolitan Life insurance company. Her equity there once was $175,000. She has also lost title to No. 128 West Fifty-third street, to No. 73 West Sixty-eighth street, and to No. 166 West Seventy-second street. Her equity in the West. Fifty-third street house, had shrank in size in the central Park West house her equity, even above the $20,000 mortgage, was estimated at the foreclosure at $40,000. Finally, when her realty would yield no more, Mrs. Ellas lived on the income of stocks and bonds, valued at over $125,000. They all have gone, it is no longer possible to see several years since she last occupied cottage at Long Branch, with its wine cellar and Japanese servants. The woman's business advisers say she never speculated in real estate or stocks. All she ever had was what Platt gave. Tall, statuesque and less than 50, Mrs. Ellas looks scarcely older than when in 1905 she successfully defended Platt's suit to recover the fortune he had lavished upon her. When remonstrated with for living beyond her means, Mrs. Ellas always had to answer: "I can get more money where the other came from—memning, she explained, there was always some one ready to advance cash on her realty.

PAGE TWO MAKES INQUIRY Federal Agents Investigating Reports of Colonization of Men From South Federal Agents Investigating Reports of Colonization of Men From South BY J. M. BATCHMAN CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE St. Louis, Mo., Oct. 27.—Government agents have been in East St. Louis for some time investigating reports of plans for voting large numbers of members of the Reps. the south on Nov. 7. We also registered the government were active watching for attempts at padding the registration booth at the coming election. United Disaster Relief Agency was asked when asked as to the report of the activity of the government agents, said if investigations were being made, the evi- dence reported to him until after the election. Letters have been received by Chief of Police Ransom Payne stating that the beingPOSE from Jacksonville, Tennessee, could be people were bad characters. Race men who are informed on conditions believe that the increase in the Negro population of East St. Louis, it is due to the great amount of attractive wuchs, which has influenced men from the south to seek this field for their future homes. This condition, the spondent, is similar to that which is found at present in many sections of the country, which is causing large numbers of men, is brought north by large corporations, such as railroads, etc., and this impresses to the Democrat city organizers that it is admitted that they have some strikebreakers, but there has been such an enormous influx that there are many people who think an investigation is in order. It takes a year's residence in Illinois to tentile one to vote. Persons who entered the race for the United Railroad strike and the strike at National City peaking plants are not enlisted. National City representatives say they have come into possession of cards instructing the colored men to refuse to state what tickets they would vote when asked by the candidates. The instruction last week was about $499 greater than it was four years ago, but $500 women voted, a great deal of the increase in votes then, too. East St. Louis' grows very rapidly and this fact will no doubt serve to increase the votes which may be uncovered to a minimum. Assistant State's Attorney Gustin will present to the grand jury any evidence of the assault on him, but as only one case as yet has been reported, and it a weak charge, the charges will prove a force. The News was so interested that there would be a big piece of news in store that it would be published in paper that he found four persons to be involved ago. The landlady said she knew they had not lived in the city long enough to be involved and come around and fixed it up so there would no trouble. The News says that of 3,500 people on the Race in Enst St. Louis, 2,000 have come to the city in the last four months. In this section the belief is strong that Illinois will be unusually close this year, universities are on their poes for every advancing student, and colleges come in for his share of attention. St. Louis the Democrats have been on the lookout for franks in registering imported men, but nothing has as yet defended them, politicians make the counter charge that the Democrats wards the Democrats have registered numbers of white men in the same way.

Oct. 27.—The Race was pleased to learn recently that the Republican National Committee had appointed as chairman of the Colored Women's National Committee Committeeturer, Miss Alice L. T. Waytes. The headquarters of this committee is located at 165 West 130th street, New York, where a grand opening occurred and are comfortably fixed up, and one may find there Republican campaign litter- Miss Waytes ture, buttons, emblems, etc., Mon. as well as ladies, are welcome to the rooms. It is the shonee-wish of the chairman that as many of the Race who possibly can will drop into these headquarters, read the literature, take away the but-to-the-day account of the work. Regular meetings will be held from time to time, at which Miss Waytes would be very pleased to see as many women as can possibly attend. Born in Union county, South Carolina, Miss Waytes was reared in Columbia, the first of the first of the first. Fascinating her academic studies at Benedict College, she completed a missionary course at Shaw University. Raleigh, N. C., in 1901, later graduating from the Moody Bible School in Chicago, was a “proud little girl” and, as a speaker she is for a public school. A training, Miss Waytes won fame as a campaigning orator for the Progressive party in 1912, stumping several states. The Republican National Committee could not have made a butler selection in the same way as the women, and continue to be the most “proud little girl” of the race. The Race in this section of the state has a large number of energetic and capable women who are doing real constructive work along all lines. Under the leadership of the distinguished Miss Waytes, she has been a member of the city of the Republican party and credit to the race. While in Chicago Miss Waytes was one of the committee that organized the new famous Frederick Douglas Center. In New York her activities are, however, not as important as Miss Waytes's church church, at the St. John's Church, and wish her great success.

In order to vote you must pay your poll tax, and meetings have been held to arouse interest in this direction. Voting schools are being organized and now exist in every ward in the city. Churches are used as assembling places and instruction cards and duplicates of the ballots that will be used in November are used. Rob Church and members of the Race have broken entirely with the white Republicans and have a legislative and congressional ticket of their own. White Republicans in the past have treated them so "niggardly" that the manhood of the Race would not stand for it. It is remarkable how our people are paying their poll tax and fitting themselves for citizenship. It's a good lesson for the south and the north as well.

It was beautifully and most interestingly illustrated from many phases. In spite of the absence of the energetic pastor, Dr. J. S. Jackson, who has been spending a ten JEALOUSY CAUSES DEATH Continued from first page leave, when Officer John Jackson came upon the scene, and at the sight of the officer Johnson started to run. The officer at the feeling man, but none of the bullets took effect and Johnson stopped long enough in his sight to fire twice at Officer Jackson, one bullet hitting a telephone line and one hit a policeman's head. Johnson then ran his fastest and was last seen going in an easterly direction from Contesville. One of the dead woman was taken to a near-by undertaking establishment and parties were quickly formed to run down the murderer, and several autos filled with determined men fully armed, and had taken, but early this morning they had all returned without finding any claw of the mans' whereabouts. Assistant District Attorney Harris L. Stetson the officers were notified, as was Coroner John S. Garrett, and the three officials of the county left for the scene of the shooting. An examination of the body showed that the three bullets would have proved fatal. Coroner Carrett empanaged a jury of citizens of Contestive and early this year to investigate a wrongful witness testifying to their knowledge of the sad affair. The verdict was that Helen Hill came to her death from gunshot wounds received from a pistol shot by "Pie" Johnson with murderous intent. The dead woman is a daughter of London Hill, and is about 21 years of age. She was a restaurant host, but lived with Johnson. She was as an inoffensive person who was dead in love with Johnson, who for a time had seemed to care for her, but had at last been convicted of murder. Two terms of Criminal Justice "Pie" Johnson was found guilty of carrying concealed deadly weapons, but his attorney applied for a new trial and the jury found him guilty, which gave him his freedom until the question of a new trial is settled. The man has on many occasions figured in the courts and has served several sentences as a "bad" man. Assistant District Attorney Spread, in speaking of the affair, said: "It was as brutal a murder as I have ever come in, and I was unarmed, as she was walking away from him, and had it not been pure luck he would have probably killed Officer Jackson. I do hope he will be capable of getting possible to the get man, who is a danger in every respect, and I guess this last act will put an end to his freedom."

Lowden has conducted his campaign as Republican candidate for governor in a temperate and dignified manner. His campaign has revived and strengthened the state's legislative free from personalities. He has urged his proper claims for the governorship by presenting them without cause for offense to others, or rejecting the motives or qualifications of others.

Mr. Lowden has refrained from creating factional strife and represents no faction of the party, and will use the better for his primary camPALE. He is abundantly qualified to discharge the duties of governor and brings with him the appreciation of the relation of the exertion of other departments of state government.

The Eatons were first on, introducing a pair of human beings, fox terrifiers and roller skates, and some fair entertainment was worked out of the combination. They were followed by Wallie and Irone Brooks in a little singing, rube comedy and indifferent dancing. A sketch called "A Temperance Woman," presented by Florence Randall & Co., provided an opportunity for the two people to show their ability as lightning change artists, and although the lightning was a little slow, it went over well. The old favorites, Cook & Stevens, in their Chineze and Smoke act, were ac- WILLIAM RUSSELL In the dual roles of Ward and Clyde Kingsley, the twin brothers around whom the exciting action of Mabel Condon's intensely interesting story, "The Man Who Would Not Die," takes place, William Russell makes the most of a splendid opportunity for clever character drawing. This great feature comes to the States theater on Sunday, Oct. 29, and is in five great parts. Ward in his early manhood had been a sultor for the hand of Agnes Pondleton, but she has married his twin brother Clyde, a man dissolute at heart. Clyde squanders his wife's fortune and makes a proposal that she join him in an attempt to defrain a life insurance company. He suggests that he disappear and that a body he substituted for his sister must be his. He hundred thousand dollars in life surmise and rejoin him in South American parts. Word comes from the east that Ward, twin brother of Clyde, is dying, and Clyde hurries to urge his brother to let his body be used for the swindle when he dies. Ward is taken west to die in Clyde's home, but under the nursing of Agnes recoveries. From this point the drama develops an absorbing plot full of gripping interest and thrilling action brought about by the awakening of love by Agnes for the brave boy he becomes and the struggles to save him from fate that she knows he is unconscious facing. As the good brother, fighting against his love for his beautiful sister-in-law, and as the hardened criminal, scheming to destroy his own flesh and blood for sale of gold, William Russell's powerful and charming man, the Man Who Would Not Die" at the very top of the long list of this popular star's dramatic successes. corded a hearty welcome and cleaned up in their usual impressive manner. Cook's Chinese character is as clever as anything of its kind seen here or anywhere and Steve's cork comedy proved as popular as the real figure, held every eye as she closed the bill with her contortion and iron jaw work. The last half of the week opened with the revolving ladder team, the Sisters Anquennetta, who pleased. Ogden & Benson, a fair cabaret team which introduced several original song numbers, followed and did well. The famous importerator, Princess Kn. in his her chasers, picked his he, the success of his her former visit. The famous fule & Jennette Bradford held the fourth spot on the bill and did splendidly, in fact, they went so well that Mule left here with a contract calling for a week's stand here in the near future, in which the comedian will present "The Prince of Hayti," with a company of twenty-people. Rehearsals will begin in Philadelphia next week for this, and many of the comedians will be in the cast. The club and hat jugling trio, Gabys Bros. & Clark, closed the bill. Will Robinson, better known as Bojangles, will be the feature next week. THE MONOGRAM A good all feature bill is being presented here. The most widely known person on the bill is Madam Billy Kersands, and she sustains the famous name she bears by her clever rendition of several good song numbers. Taylor & Williams are a clever team, who created an excellent impression, and Seymour & Pellebone are proving to be one of the best teams playing the Consolidated time, and they round out a well balanced bill. A NEW THEATRE When business got so good at the Douglass theater, Macon, Ga., C. H. Douglass, the owner, decided to open another house. He straightway leased the Hotel Tracey building at 1223 Broadway and proceedings began at once. Here is a letter that Mr. Douglass sent late last week: *Macon, Ga., Oct. 19.*—Dear Mr. Langston, In reply to your letter will say that I am not tellly when I will be able to get to Chicago. I will busy erecting another theater. My other house is doing so well that it is regularly taxed to capacity. Am sending you a picture of the building that I am transforming and which will be ready before long. I have just offered the board of education here one acre of ground on which to build a school for our people. I think they will accept. The new theater will seat 600 people. Will tell you more about it in my next letter. Yours very truly. *DOUGLASS*: Mr. Douglass is one of the most successful business men in the south and is a real public-spirited citizen. Men of this kind always have trouble accommodating their well wishers. JUST LIKE THIS One of those skaters who have elected to go into the moving picture, business and who is too void of entrails to let his "white" patrons understand that he is helpless to insult a few customers of the darker hue, cries out for help in a letter sent to Motography, a magazine published in the interest of owners and managers. The correspondence is herewith published and I hope that my many readers will think over the contents of the two letters. Here they are: The Yelp Is there any law or theater ordinance or any authority of any kind whereby I can keep negroes out of my theater? I have had a great deal of trouble lately because of the attendance of negroes and on several occasions some of my oldest patrons have left because a colored person came in and sat next to them. I do not want them in the audience, but I do not know how to keep them out or whether there is any authority to back me if I exclude them. Editor's Answer I think you will find in no state or city—with possible exceptions in the south—is there any ordinance whereby negroes may be excluded from the theaters. They have as much right there under the law as the white people, and they have a right to be treated just as courteously as the white people. There are ways, however, of getting around this matter without any trouble or scaring friction. The Negroes as a race citing friction to assert themselves. You cannot refuse an entrance to the theater if they come up and buy a ticket, but you can place them in the theater so that the other patrons will not object. If you have a balcony, set one portion aside for the Negroes, so that they will be segregated. Then instruct your ushers that all colored people are to be seated in that portion of the balcony. Give in that they are to be treated courteously, if they simply did that they will have to go up in the balcony have the usher lead them and say nothing. If they refuse to go and insist they sit where they please downstairs, then simply tell them that you will have to refund their money and quietly hand it to them. I think you will find that they are reasonable and will respond readily to courteous treatments. This kind if you bluff it out. It really is this kind of man and bluff, for if they wanted to fight your wife they would have a perfect right to do so and you would have no real and legal backing for your action. If you have no balcony, you might set aside a certain number of seats in a particular section of the house, so that the other people would not have to sit next to them if they objected. If you antagonize them they can and are liable to make trouble for you. If you treat them civilly, but at the same time, they set that they are not welcome, then they will very quickly go to some other house where they feel that their money is considered just as good as that of the white people. A BIG HIT Dayton, Ohio, Oct. 27. — Dear Friend, Tony: "Realization" made one big hit here and played to packed houses.

FIRST SONG FESTIVAL Every Number on Program Was a Com- position of a Member of the Race. Muskogee, Okla. Oct. 27—On last Monday night Central Baptist church was thronged with anxious listeners who had gathered to witness Muskogee's first song festival, in which every number rendered was the composition of a member of our Race. One of the special features of the evening was the superb rendition of jubilee melodies by a chorus 150 trained voices, under the direction of H. P. Johnson, musical director of the National Baptist Convention and Sunday School Progress. The prima donna of the occasion was M. Birdelte Johnson-Bell, who sang N. Clark-Smith's "Colored Prima Donna" in a manner which completely dumfounded her audience by the marvelous range of her voice, soaring with the ease and grace to the "dizzy heights" of the third "E" and "F" above middle and displaying a control of the thrill and sweetness of voice commensurate with her own reputation as one of America's foremost singers. Among the writers represented on the program were Colidge Taylor, Raymond Johnson, N. Clark-Smith, W. Marlin Cook, W. C. Handy, H. B. P. Johnson, N. Clark-Smith and others.

W. Griffith. The play, which is in five big stories, is a story of newspaper activity, reform in the underworld, tinctured with a few original touches and characterizations that make it distinctive. As with all of the Triangle releases, a two-part Keystone, which is a scream from start to finish, will be shown. Matteineas start at 2 o'clock daily. PLANNING A TRIP Bethel choir, of which Prof. James A. Mundy is director, is planning a trip to Cincinnati, Indianapolis and Louisville. This will be the first choir of the Race. This will be as if the trip is a success at these three places; they may go on a western and southern tour. Bethel choir ranks as the best in the country and is vested. WHERE ARE MY CHILDREN? Behind the portals of eternity the souls of little children waited to be born. Within the first space was the army of "chance children." Without distinguishing mark they went forth to earth in great numbers. Then came those sad mutated souls that were constantly sent back. They were misplaced and physically defective and bore the sign of the serpent. And, then, in the secret place of the most high were those souls, fine and strong, that were only sent forth on prayer. They were marked with a cross. In the great sensational feature, "Where Are My Children," which comes to the theater for three days-Friday, Saturday, and 4- and 5-direct form a 14-week run at the La Salle Theater, many startling things are shown. A few of the most essential follow: Richard Walton, district attorney, was a great believer in eugenics. The sight of the poor defectives constantly passing through the police court always left him sad. It was a great grief to him that his wife was childless, but never dreaming that it was her fault he concealed his disappointment. His sister was a great anguine marriage and Walton watched the result with firstest. When her first child was born, his pride and delight in it was only equal to that of the parents themselves. As the child grew up, Mrs. Walton watched with surprise her husband's interest and pride in it. A fault regret stirred in her that she had deliberately elected to remain childless. About this time Mrs. Walton's chm, Mrs. Brandt, was disappointed to find herself on the road to motherhood. A coveted invitation to a smart house parmenter was discontented with her condition. Confident her friend, Mrs. Walton referred her to her physician, Dr. Mallett, and even escorted Mrs. Brandt to his office. Thus one of the "unwanted ones" returned, and a social butterfly was again ready for house parties. A case had come to trial that greatly interested the district attorney. A fanatic on the subject of well-born children had written a book, attempted to send it broadcast, in which the truth about unwelcome motherhood, birth regulation and other sex questions were set forth. The district attorney began to think more and more about his unborn child. It happened that Mrs. Walton's brother, Roger, a young rake, was visiting her when the housekeeper's daughter, Lillian, came home from school. Having place to put the girl, the housekeeper asked permission to keep her until some further arrangement could be made. It was inevitable that Lillian, young and innocent, should fall a prey to the wiles of Roger. Presently another of the "unwanted ones" had come to Lillian. Lillian lived long enough to tell her mother the truth; then she paid the price of her folly with her life. Her distracted mother confronted the family with the tragedy, and, although Roger escaped, by leaving the country, and Mrs. Walton's part in it was not discovered, the district attorney got the one and knew, Dr. Malft, and brought all his knew to convict him. Fighting for his life, Malft wrote to Mrs. Walton, threatening her with exposure unless she influenced her husband in his favor. This she was unable to do; but Malft's efforts to bring the names of his clients into the case were unsuccessful, and he was given a heavy sentence. In revenge he sent his day book to the district attorney, with the pages marked on which Mrs. Walton's accounts with his were in this way he the district attorney learned why his home was abused. A bitter scene ensued that broke Mrs. Walton's spirit of selfishness forever, awakened her to a sense of wrong she had committed and brought repentance. Repentance came too late. The portals were never again to open to her. Throughout the years with empty arms and guilty conscience she must face her husband's unspoken question, WHERE ARE MY CHILDREN? FROM HONQULULU If any one was skeptical about the welfare of the bunch that went to Honolulu with Hen Wise's Bronze Review, the following few lines which hit the mysterious precincts of the old roll-topped desk on Monday should case their fears. Witness: Honolulu, T. H., Oct. 6.—Friend Tony: I am with the greatest pleasure that I write you this week, as hope you will overlook my delay doing so. We have been very busy, but things are all straightened out now. We sailed from Frisco on Sept. 20 and we gave a show on the boat which went great. We opened here on Oct. 4 to capacity and were a hit. Everybody is well and doing just fine. They all send their beest regards to you. Excuse brevity; will write more next time. Let me hear from you soon and remember me to the bunch. Yours truly. WILL C. WASHINGTON.

K The second release of the Lincoln Motion Picture Co., "The Trooper of Co. K," opens its Chicago engagements on Monday, Oct. 30, at the States Theater, where it will be presented. It will be booked at several of the theaters and will be shown within the next week or ten days at the Lincoln, 3132 State street and at the Washington, 3440 State street. It is a remarkable production and is in three reels. It features Noble M. Johnson who was seen in these theaters in the Who series a short time ago.

A realistic reproduction of the Tenth Cavalry's battle at Carrizal is shown, and the great feature is full of excitement, love and heart in action. This is easily the greatest picture ever made by any people, and it ranks high with any ever produced by the best "white" companies. Watch for it. Don't miss it.

"BRAZILIAN NUTS" ARE THE APPLAUSE WINNERS They "Stop the Show" at the Palace, With Other Acts Giving Pleasure Springfield, Mass., Oct. 27.—The audience at Foll's Palace went "nutty" over Valyla and her "Brazilian Nuts." The act consisted of singing, dancing and some very "nutty" comedy by one of the two men who provided fun and piano playing while Valyla sang ballads. And the mudging of this comedian took the whole audience. At the finale there was great applause and the trilo took their numerous "bows" and retired. Miss Valyla made the prettiest bows and was the most conspicuous of the trilo during the acknowledgements of the plaudits. But it was the one that the "nutty" comedian was the one that the "nutty" comedian boy changed the cards and the orchestra desisted from its efforts, but the clamor continued. There was a long, not silly yalt. The audience then began to applaud in concert and the noise sounded like a locomotive puffing up an incline. A summer added to the illusion by sounding the locomotive bell. Finally the "nutty" comedian had been washing the black off his face, came out in disbelief and rewarded his admiries with an loy- laden smile.

Anita Patti Brown at Chicago was none the less given here. Speaking of her appearance at St. John's church the Daily Gazette says: Anita Patti Brown, the greatest prima donna and coloratura soloist, appeared in recital for the first time in this city at the opera house Thursday evening, and through her superb singing delighted one of the largest audiences ever assembled to hear an opera singer. Her recital was an unusual one for this city, inasmuch as it is soeldom that singers of such reputation are available. Mme. Brown was ably assisted by Miss Helen Wheeler Ferguson, Mr. L. C. Ridley and Mr. James W. Guy. Miss Marjorie Holbert, an accomplished pianist, accompanied Mme. Brown. The audience was composed of music lovers, not only of this city, but of Wil伯force, Yellow Springs, Jamestown and Cedarville, and they gave every evidence of a keen appreciation of Mme. Brown's singing. The achievements of this great singer have been wonderful and she is fully deserving of the high praise given to her by the pulpit, press and public throughout both North and South America. Each number rendered was presented in a manner far above criticism and she certainly earns the title of "The Bronze Tetrazini". Her voice is full of natural sweetness and her art of trilling far surpasses that of any other singer who has appeared in this vicinity. Mme. Brown was given rounds of applause after each song. Her charming personality and pleasing appearance captivated her auditors and held them spellbound during the entire recital. All credit is due the Tribe of Ephriam of St. John's A. M. E. church, through which it was possible for Mme. Brown to appear here. On the committee of arrangements were Oscar W. Price, E. R. Marechant, J. W. Cosby and Thomas I. Scurry. The large audience which gathered at Botel church Sunday enjoyed a program of unusual merit. Mr. McKenna presented an array of talent that would have been a credit to any audience in our city. Miss Alpha A. Bratton rendered two soprano solos. She possesses a voice of rare sweetness. It is capable of considerable power without the tone becoming strident. Her last number rendered in splendid style. Miss Cleo Dillon quickly becoming a pianist of the very high esteem. Her career will be worth observing. Henry A. Ethridge is a young tenor with a voice rich in that quality, which makes the Negro pre-eminent in song. With proper training he will develop into a successful artist. The quartette responded to an encore. Miss H. L. Smallwood sang two contralto solos with a real contralto quality. She possesses all-complete charm that holds an audience. Mr. W. C. a matric reader, and Mr. Lyon, a cornetist, each responded to an encore. Mr. Hilbert Stewart gave an organ group which was received with an abundance of applause. Mr. W. C. Bruckner, a favorite bass, sang "Wilis was usual success." CLARENCE WHITE ENTERTAINED Messrs. Clarence Cameron White of Boston, Mass.; Julius N. Avendorph, and Joseph B. Crum were the guests of Geo. Bonds at dinner Sunday evening at the Y. M. C. A. Mr. Cameron White left for Boston, where he makes his next appearance in a recital. The guest C. brewer, 6000 S. Wabash avenue, gave a lunchin in honor of Mr. Clarence Cameron White Monday evening following the recital. Mrs. Brewer is noted for entertaining in a most charming manner, but Monday night's affair surpassed anything she has attempted with Mrs. Bunn, whom she and Mrs. Earnest Bunn, Mr. W. Brewer, and Anderson, Julius N. Avendorph and William Kelly. Mr. White was the guest of Mr. and Mrs. David Manson, 5816 S. Michigan avenue, Friday at dinner.

Dear Mr. Tony: On looking over the theatrical review of your great paper I see that I can get a job on the stage just by placing my name on the screen. I know the fact that you will have to know that can do before you can place me. I am one of the best dancers in the world today, and if you were to see me "Walk the Dog" and do the "Back Slide" you would sure be impressed. I wear a No. 12 shoe and a No. 8 hat, am about 4 feet tall and pull the scales at $4 pounds. I was a Navy captain in the army at Fort Sam Houston Texas, but was fired because I would not "Dog" every time I was asked; after they fired me they wanted to get me back, but I would not go, as I wanted to see some of the big cities. At present I am working at the Blun Goose Hotel. This is some hotel. Do the show people in Chicago, but suppose I would have to put on a pair, although I know that they will hurt me. Well, let me hear from you, as it is very dull here for me now. Yours truly. LITTLE SAM. Reply. — Deni Sam: I am very much afraid that you overestimate 'my ability as a job getter, especially if your stock in trade consists only of the two dances you mention above. There is a ten dollar fine waiting for the next Ham caught "Walkin the Dog," and believing it to be a fact that your personal bank roll is short on 10's. I would feel that I am not going to be placed you on your ability to Dog. This "Back Slide" thing you speak of is too common to be of interest, as the woods are full of "back sliders."

To tell the whole truth, I have showed some class along that line myself. Sure, the show people in Chicago wear shoes. While it is a fact that some of them skip a wrist occasionally as regards an overcoat, the meer seen one go entirely barefoot, my advice to you is, either stick to your present job at the Goose or re-enlist in the army. In the former case you are sure of a meal and bed and in the latter I will be assured that you won't head north—Editor. Mumpsburg, Pa., Oct. 24. Dear Mr. Editor: I wrote to the people whose address you sent me and they had me send them the lyrics to one of my song numbers. I didn't hear from them for a month, so wrote to them and told them to be with what the song was worth or with what the music. Three days later I got a money order for $1. I have written another song which I know will be a hit. The name of it is "Annie Lowsey" and the chorus runs like this: We, I never will forget The idea gone by. No matter what may come or go My love will never die. I'll work hard like a slave, My Own. I'll work with heart and soul, As I will often oust blasts do come I'll buy a load of beer I know what had ought to happen with a song like this. All I want is to get the right performer to use it will publish it myself. Can't you use an influence for me? Please reply as soon as possible. Yours as ever. SUE SHEETS. Reply—Dear Sketsey; You certainly do have a lot of trouble. The song you sent to Gettim & Holdim must have been a coo-coo or you never would have received that much money for it. You should always keep calm, stiff, then you will be protected. What happened to you is what is liable to happen to body. That's why Mule Bradford isn't drawing royalties from "walk-in the Dog" today, so Mule says. This "Annie" song is a peach and should go great, although I don't like these sad songs myself. Take this line where he says, "I'll work hard in the Own. That made tears come to my eyes." Eat load of coal line is another fine and shows the great depth of the young man's love. No one but a true lover would promise such a thing with coal at $10.50 a ton. It is a beautiful ballad, and I would hear some sweet singer, say Billy E. Jones, put it on. I know it would be a full set of lyrics of your own and I will use my influence in placing it with the proper people. In the meantime, ados—Editor.

E. church, 50th and Wabash avenue, featuring Mr. Clarence White, violinist; Mrs. Mary Ross Dorsey, elocutionist; four Mime, Billie M. Shoen, soprano soprano; Mr. William J. Morphop, musicanger. The church was filled with lovers and it was the fourth big musical given this season that was largely attended, indicating the high appreciation that Chicago and its citizens have for high class artists. Mr. White's work was especially the one and his program was well received. The concert featured feet: (a) "Indian Lament," (b) Spanish Serenade, (c) "Hungarian Dance No. 5," Brahms-Joachim. Mr. White highly pleased his audience when he played (a) "Negro Chant," (b) "Slave Song" and (c) "Negro Dance." His soul seemed to be in these numbers and he played with great feeling, showing his master touch, stringed instrument. He is very popular in this city and has a great following. Mrs. Mary Ross Dorsey, elocutionist, a handsome gown and reacted to the occasional "Woman's Passion" sign. He is a tection from Dunbar. She was very pleasing and especially good in "A Telephone Romance." There is nothing lacking in her training; she is an artist of rare ability. Mine. Willie Shan rendered three numbers: (a) "The Awakening," (b) "I Dreamt," (c) "The Serenade." Her voice is very sweet and has been trained to the highest. Her art has been forged and has every quality that goes for artiste's work. The whole program was high class. Mr. T. Thomas Taylor was the accompanist. The three artists received handson bunches of American Beauties and chrysanthemums. Mr. Avendorph deserves great credit for bringing to the city such splendid talent. No city in America appreciates real art more than the ones of this city and they demonstrate marches and halts when properly presented. Mr. White left yesterday for Omaha, Nebr., on his western tour.

On the second down of场, the team finished J. Dorssey hit the line for sixty-five yards, making the first touchdown. The game was in Hampton's favor for the final finish. Roanoke attempted several second-half attempts were either blocked or intercepted. Captain H.

TEAM LINCOLN DEFEATS LAMPTON, 12 TO 0 LINCOLN DEFEATS LAMPTON, 12 TO 0 By George Bouwlar Lincoln University, Pa., Oct. 27. The varsity eleven of Lincoln University brought home the laurels in its liptal contest of the season Saturday, when it defeated the big Lampington football team by a score of 12 to 0. The game was a severe combat. Both teams battled up and down the field three times, but the team won the result. When the last quarter began the best the supporters of each team could hope for and reasonably expect was a scorcec game. But it was only two chances to play that Archer, with the speed of Howard Ivey, carried the ball from the 20-yard line through right tackle for a touchdown. A wild cheer of trumpet arose from the Lincoln student body. The noise was meant to any other sound until the cheer leader raised his megaphone for silence. Several times afterward Archer showed his wonderful bursts of speed running back pants. And his coolness quarterback was a great asset to the team. With only four minutes to play the Lampton quarterback threw a forward pass, which was intercepted by Failey back through a broken field within three yards of the goal. Then Douglass and Howell drove a hole through left tackle and Smith plowed his way across the line with such velocity and momentum that the net of Lampton's tacklers with him. Miles played a brilliant game. He broke through the visitors' line for respective gains of five, ten and fifteen yards. Waters, alias Goochie, played quarterback the first half. His scintillating tackles were the most sensational of the game. And his generalship infused plenty of pep into the team. Such was the outcome of the game. Now we shall turn to the inactive members of the squad. "Beautt" Clinton sustained an injury during the summer while driving a mustang. The semi-wild horse of the pratters was thrown on run away. "Beautt" was thrown out and thus received a badly gashed leg. As a consequence of his accident he was forced to keep out of the scrimmages. Now that he is in good shape he will make his first appearance this afternoon. Leon Byard, better known as "Category," Lincoln's great drop kick of the machine, is in left halfback again. "Cat" Brunestief men in the football world. He is the logical man for his position. The Orange and Blue line is impregnable and is prepared to smother the ball. Young, "Category," Byard, "Houston" Clinton and "Silent" Smith or Dalley in the back field Lincoln will be invincible. Watch this sporting column for further reports from Lincoln's gridiron.

Rube, contrary to what all had expected him to do, sent in an unknown youngster and sent Whithworth, whose term is out of whack, and Wickware, who a sore arm, to the bench.

Hill took a strike, looked one over. Giseel set a strike and then Hill rolled to Clarke and was thrown on at first on a lightning play. Duncan was pitched, fouled the next, then lined to Shively, who made a great catch. Tom Johnson walked Brown on four straight balls; De Moss hit the first ball pitched and Barber came in, picked it up, throwing to Bauchman, but De Moss hit the second ball, by traction of the second and got credit for a run of Johnson fouled off the first, then rolled to Tom and was out to Barber. Shively hit about ten feet toward first. Petway, instead of letting the ball roll foul or even picking it up and bluffing a ball and got back, lost his hit and it with cannon ball speed to Barber and Shively was out, but Brown scored when Barber's return was a second late. De Moss took third on the play. Clarke got a strike. He looked the next three in and attempted double steal.

Drama at Nazarene Church Drama at Nazafene Church The representative of this paper was requested to review the drama, "The Guns for a Man," which was the first play by Frank Wilson, a Race man. He delegated Mrs. Anna White, a member of the Defender staff in Brooklyn, to report the play. The cast of characters was also given by the cast of the Major Enos Ricketts, Charles T. Magill; Fred Feuless, Arthur Davis; Little 19th Down, Louise C. Perkins; Jack Jacques, Frank Wilson; Billy Ricketts, Joseph T. Magill; Alvin Azeviz, Corrline Grant, and Peter S. Snyder. The cast of the drama is most interesting, and we regret space does not permit us to give a resume of it. The play was given on Friday, Oct. 10, at Nazafene Congregational Church, 200 St. Paul Street, New York, United States. The improvised stage which was erected proved a handicap to the players, as well as the poor curtain arrangements in the church. Generally speaking, the play was given at the end, though in spots it showed a want; the action, though the work of Frank Wilson stood out as easily the best. We are informed, however, that Mr. Wilson is really a professional workman; none of his professional workmen has ever been a professional stage. As an author, if "The Colored Americans" is to be taken as a criterion, he gives promise to much success. Next in the play, the play is given to the play, portrayal of emotion was excellent. The others all showed well. We cannot overlook the work of our old friend, Charles T. Magill, who as a Junior Enos Ricketts, is out to the play. It is our intention to witness this play, presentation, after which we shall feel at liberty to more closely criticise. These young men and young ladies deserve to be given a chance to work.

Several audience spellbound while they discussed various subjects. Mme. Ezelele Mathir Carter, president of the Carter System, gave advice on women of America and it is said by those older in the hair dressing business that her ideas of a first class business woman are of great value. Advice on her annual address she said have invited you here because of the new revival in commercial awakening. No one knows the thousands and millions, but the nickles and dimes. What meeneth the five and ten cent nets and nickel shows? They are valued in commerce. An of course the small amounts, but of course it is worth a ton of administration; or to put it in holy write. No man living in America holds good in business as in religion. Perhaps you have heard the little conundrum, "How many ribbons the required to wipe from Martha to John?" How many women in America would be required to lift any community? One, nine united." The meeting adjourned next Oct. 18 and 19 at Americus, Ga. Mme.

THE .CHICAGO DEFENDER NOTICE Dowing to the rapid increase in circulation of the Defender it is necessary that all copy for classified advertisements be in the office by 3 p. m. or Wednesday preceding the date of issue MANAGER LANDS IN JAIL The manager of the Franklin Theater, 31st street and Calumet Avenue, was lodged in Jail on Tuesday night and remained there, as he could not furnish bond, because he had discriminated against Mrs. J. McGhee and Mr. A. T. Donald, 3650 Calumet Avenue. A popular picture was being shown at the same time, and a little of a little of the work to see it. Mr. Donald, who rooms there, asked her to go. He bought tickets, and had seats on the first floor, and the manager told them that same old "gug," there was a mistake, and ordered them to the gallery. Mr. Donald is a respectable citizen and knows his rights—relies on his property—and he has the picture. "Flower of Fulth," well enough to sit in the gallery when his tickets called for first class seats on the first floor. Knowing the laws of Illinois, he went to the station house to secure a warrant. The night clerk tried to "fear" him, and so he went to Attorney S. A. T. Walking in the Hall, he was a corporation counsel of the city of Chicago, and was told if the desk sergeant would not give him a warrant to apply to the judge. The Judge went so far as to refuse Mr. Donald, and the latter told the sitting judge that if he did not give him a warrant he would go to Chief Healey or Judge Olson. The Judge issued the case came up before Judge Wade on Tuesday at 35th and Halsted street court. The manager of the theater asked for a jury trial and the case will come up some time next week, probably before Judge Olson. Attorney S. A. T. Walked in the hall, charge of the case, which is a criminal one, and there may be a civil case to come up by Mrs. McGhee.

SA'URDAY, OCTOBER 28 Innocent Boy in County Jail Circumstantial Evidence Members of Race Must Help Earl Fletcher, 3401 Prairie avenue, is in the county jail accused of a crime which he did not commit. Just why he was removed from the Juvenile home Judge Arnold has yet to answer Attorney Barnett. It is a long, sad story of a good boy, a white girl, the police and the courts, one that every club woman, every member of the Race in this city should lend a helping hand—not that Mr. and Mrs. Richard Fletcher, the mother and father of the boy are poor—far from that, for these people are not. Mr. Fletcher works, but is the father of seven children. We know what that means this day and time. His wife is sick at the Passavant hospital. Earl is accused of attacking a naughty girl at an hour that he was home. The girl is accused of contradicting each other. The police have failed to prove their case, yet Earl is in charge of the case. The mates are the worst criminals in the world. All who know him, even his em­ perator, have been convicted. Defender believes him not guilty, as we have gone over the evidence. We are asking the mates to believe we ourselves in the matter. We are asking the churches, the men of the Race. Think what a magazine, fruit, candy, or a book tells us about a half dollar would do—then act.

This piece of news flashed over the wires and brought a sick-to the heart of every human being that had a spark of humanity. It is needless to state that the scene was again laid in Georgia, of brutality and lawlessness. A planter was reprimanding a boy for his work, say the reports, when the mother interfered and the planter with her pet, no gently; the boy went to the aid of his mother and struck the planter with a piece of iron, killing him, for which crime, mother and son paid the penalty. What impression it made on the editor of the Augusta, Ga., Chronicle, is shown in the following strong article: "If ever the story of a lynching carried on the face of it utter condemnation of and disgust for the 'mob,' this one does. To repeat the story is to emphasize its cruelty and horror—of a mother's not unnatural concern for her offspring; accounting for her 'intefering' while he was being 'reprimanded.' And the not unnatural act of the offspring in going to the mother's defense then the farmer 'grappled' with her. If, however, we abandon those discreet diplomatic terms, and assume merely for sale of the argument, as well as defense of our own common sense and experience — that the farmer wasoping the Negro boy, that the mother flew to his rescue and that the son went to his mother's aid, we shall, in all probability, have a better idea it what occurred. and perforce we shall not to be impressed with the thought that the mother -black and ignorant and but a few generations removed from the savage, as she was—merely betrayed the traits of the mother animal of all species. As for the offspring, well, he is a murderer, and the law will deal with him. Provided, of course, the mob gives the law a chance. But the thought that will not down is this: that, the mother-animal, even among the brutes, has been famed in song and story for defense of her offspring. In every specie is this instinct the same, from the tiniest bird that flies to the most ferocious animal that roams. And with our own eyes, we have all seen, time and again, this same mother-trait displayed by the more domesticated animals around our homes. Nor have we withheld admiration for the instinct that moved them and the spirit of sacrifice and courage that sustained them—even unto death. "I am for this—no more, no less, in its last analysis—that 'another has put a black mother to death; a mother who followed a real instinct and 'interfered.'

MOTHER! EIGHTH ING. CHICAGO preflude is on the increase—but alone in the South—but in every section of the country, and the lot of the dark man is destined to be a great deal harder before the pendulum swings the other war, and might does not make right. The European war has brought a right home to the money-grabbing people of this country, and they are overlooking a colored workman for no other reason than that his skin is of a darker hue than their. Without nothing for our hands or brain to do, it is little wonder a feeling of unrest was generated and daily assuming larger and larger proportions. It could no be expected that twelve million people will forever stay "suppressed." Sooner or later something is bound to happen fortunately for us, the great war can be gradually forcing a second attempt to make good, that the powers that are inclined, backed up by necessity, to give them a chance. And so a non-chapter in our life book is the vexed question of what to do with us from the South has held as their all time priority in the question of how to can we without them? This section of the gospel country is in much the same predicament as the dog in the manger, who didn't want the hay himself, and wouldn't let the ox eat it. Long ago we have given up the idea that the so-called Christians would in time cement all races together. The church, if by nothing more than its silence, has given the stamp of approval to all things contemptible, but as it was, something good did come forth, so, too, are we in a way benefited and the eve of a new emancipation, as a result of the great conflict beyond the seas. MY LADY'S GOWN DARWIN ONCE WROTE an article on "Development of Dress" but with that wisdom which controlled his writings, he restricted himself to the study of men's dress. This is a progressive movement securing the survival of the fittest in one of the most important instances wherein we must defend faculties or die intellectually conceiving a freedom effect strive after it with all the higher faculties of our nature. Development in man's dress took place under this first condition, working forcing him to desegard those faculties that encumbered his body and disturbed his mind. Neither of these conditions by woman wrought any change in the mind. an article on "Develop- ment writings, he restricted movement securing the tight for existence whil- e concerning what is concerning the limits of num- ber first condition, work his body and disturbed his dress.

BANKS—ever heard of the tail of the prize being the main guy RS SE It would seem that the elemental requirements of a perfect dress constitutes first: freedom of movement; second, a weight suitable to the season, and evenly divided; grace and beauty, combined with comfort and convenience; a fashion not departing too conspicuously from or going in advance of the ordinary dress of the woman's wardrobe but not only encumbers her body and harasses her mind, as man's once did but not necessarily necessary conditions of progress, his proceeded from bad to worse. Her body, the succeeded temple of her heart, is pictured because fashion is reckless of health. Her mind is degraded because its so aim is to make her outwardly attractive. One need but visit a public dance hall to have this fact forcibly brought to mind. The rich hues of their dress, low cut front and abbreviated sibs, all tending to youthful, warm adolescence in its frightful display of those virgin chums which should hold them from view, invites unpleasant comment. Dress reform is no new movement, and no particular form of dress is offered, the public mind and eye must be educated to see the evil effects growing out of incorrect wearing apparel. The prevailing tendency on the part of young girls and women to proclaim by their apparel, inadvertently and perhaps unconsciously, a lack of that modesty and sweetness which has made the American woman a queen, is deprived, and can have a resultant cultural or society. It is sad, but true, that some of our women need a character form as well as a dress reform, for it is a curious psychological fact that the will of a woman does not to do with the fashion she adopts. There is a wide gap between the dress and the one worn in our grandmothers' time. It may not be possible to resurrect the dress to strike a happy medium. And there is no better time than right now for both old and young women to show by example that modesty is the greatest charm after all. CHICAGO, and the entire state of Illinois, has every reason to be proud of the showing made by the state militia on the Mexican border. Coming from office, shop and factory as they did, they fell into the "real" comparatively short time, and made good. Today they are home with us, and some they are receiving is a glad one, and should be. They went to the front with the presentation of giving up their lives if needs be for the honor and preservation of their country. Nothing could be more manly. Their lot has not been an easy one from many problems, and yet complaints have been few and far between. There is nothing too good for our boys in blue, and every citizen will deem it an honor to shake the hands of the men who brought back nothing but the highest praise for their conduct and loyalty while in the service of Uncle Sam. WOULD IT BE FINE to get William Jennings Bryan and Theodore Roosevelt on the same platform debating on whether "he kept us out of war" or not? As "The Young Lady Across the Way," in the Daily News, would say, "it would be like tying the tails of two toms together and throwing them over a clothes-line to "pussy-foot" the thing out." MARSHALL AND FAIRBANKS—ever heard of them before? Well, they're the gentlemen who compose the tail of the presidential kites and have one of those hundred to one shots of being the main guy some sweet day. Not a bad job at that.

Race prejudice, the handicap, sufficient education, the jealousy and liteness of his own people, the loss of his wife, the cynicity of his bishop—for he is a druggyman—combine to make a story that was here it were not for the many compensations to him. Men and women of distinction were good to him, the best magazines printed his poetry, and life itself were grace because of his appreciation of every moment and the essential courage that made him push on to new adventures.

EDITOR'S MAIL DISGRACEFUL SIGNS Editor Chicago Defender: Out on the south side of Chicago there are two signs which have and do greatly interest me, and I am wondering how many men are changing to our Race that regret these signs. The sign on Thirty-third street, just west of State, announcing the Colored Dunnies quarters cannot be called real lad, as there is not the least doubt in my mind that Gov. Dunne on more than one occasion has demonstrated that he believes there should be no class, creed or consideration in this government, and the consideration in this government, the Race man during his administration, suddenly entitles him to a fair share of our land. But on the corner of Thirty-first and State streets there is a sign which reads: "Colored National Headquarters. Wilson and Marshall." This sign should be a disgrace to every one in the United States. Every voter is entitled to vote from the pleasers this I do not deny; but when I see the face of the delivery and know that from the to the present day what little legislation that has favored us has been enacted by the Republican party, it is almost unbelievable that a party of men could declare for a ticket whose head has surrounded himself with thirty-one men from the southern states, and removed our people from the government office that he made himself by men from state to believe in and uphold the tyranny of our people; men from the states who support such as Ben Tillman, who some years ago said: "When we cannot control the Negro with the tissue ballot we will not him down like a dog." These men should live in the southern states, and not our mayor have so highly esteemed them. I cannot believe these men are sheer, if they are, then it must be through ignorance, or they are fit subjects for the insane skylum. EDWIN H. GREEN. 4021 Wabush Avenue.

The following is taken from the Indiana State Board of Health report and is both good and timely: "WHEN WILL WE DEMAND A FRESH AIR GUARANTEE?" The article goes on to state that ten years from now, every church, theater or lecture hall that hopes to draw an audience will have to display a sign, a guarantee of fresh air, right outside the main door. We must add that the place of assemblage of any considerable number of people will also have to guarantee good ventilation, because the people are becoming educated to the value of good fresh air, and they are not going to risk their lives by inhaling contaminated air. The churches, dance halls, lodge rooms, theaters. The article further states "that ten years hence, let us hope, the human race will have learned and become pretty thoroughly convinced, that any hall or auditorium where a great number of people congregate, there is sure to contain a large number of people, ranging from cold germs to those of pneumonia and tuberculosis." "But, why wait ten years? People ought to know now—and health officers are trying hard to convince them—that there is no better place for taking cold air from our churches, theaters, lodge halls, etc. First, because they are usually so badly ventilated. Second, because there is always some one who is sure to have a fit of coughing which fills the stagnant air with a warm inden spray for others to breathe. There ought to be a guarantee of a current of fresh air sufficient to carry off these dangerous germs, issued with every ticket or invitation to a public waiting room. When the public learns to keep well instead of paying for cures, they will insist upon this guarantee of good ventilation and fresh air." We have quoted the above article because of its appropriateness or timeliness for this season of the year. People ought to congregate in small or large outdoor lodge rooms, etc., and in fact, more go to church during the fall and winter than during the summer. There is an increased PATRONIZE YOUR OWN In many cities there comes the criticism that those of us who have stores and are in business won't let the public patronize them because their stores are dirty, dingy and have not the goods to offer. In Chicago this criticism does not hold good. The business houses here are clean, bright, sanitary, courteous and have the market is rested with no raise in price. The only a store in this city that the cry of "dirty store" can be made, for upon investigation, just the reverse is true. What is needed most in Chicago is a great spirit of patronage aroused to support the store. If a store starts out in the spring and does not manage to keep up all the summer, employing several of our people, unless this is kept up in the fall, when the winter comes, the store closes and these same clerks are thrown out of work. Right in this same neighborhood of the store the cry noud, "We can't get anything our son or daughter to do." The Defender hopes to arouse Race-loving citizens to the point of patronizing our stores and giving them as much support as possible. It is a fact that in proportion to our enterprises, just in that proportion do we grow in business and commercial standing. Let the slogan be "Boost and patronize our stores."

CHICAGO OCT.28,1916 number of chances for infections of every kind, and the dangers are greater for microbe infections where the air is moist and contaminated with human essentials. POOR VENTILATION On account of ignorance, the cost of fuel, the fear of cold air, or fresh air, many people will endeavor to exclude all of the outside air possible for fear of taking cold, not knowing that good fresh air in a bedroom or sitting room—properly ventilated—renders one less likely to contract colds. The danger of taking air comes in our contaminated air, where we inhabit an airless room, doors and all crevices chinked so no air from the outside whatever can enter the sleeping chamber or sitting room. Fresh air stimulates and increases one's resistance to cold and other diseases, where on the contrary, confined air, made foul by coughing, sneezing and air, made foul by interchange of inside for outside air, debilitating or irritating the air, distance and thus makes him or her a ready subject for taking cold, bronchitis, lagripe, pneumonia and tuberculosis, Air, to be fresh, need not be cold air, as some people believe, by not having air in the room—keeping the windows closed, keeping the air must be fresh and pure. Cool air can be just as bad to breathe as warm air; moist air can be just as bad, if it's contaminated with human excreta, as dry air. Dry air is just as bad as night air. The important thing for you to do is to get the habit of breathing night and day, through your nose, as pure air as you possibly can obtain in your surroundings. If you hold your windows a little from the bottom and lower the top sash, or on the opposite side of the room, hold one window from the bottom and the other from the top, you will be able to see the front, center of air. You will, in all probability, from your window you usual morning headache your sleep will be sounder and more refreshing. You will be able to eat a better meal and feel better in general. You will not take cold so easily and your cold will be more easy to cure, if you have one. Suppose you try cultivating the fresh ashwagandha in your department the result of your efforts. Nothing beats a trial but a failure.

CALLING A BLUFF Buffalo Express Oct. 23. As readers of the Express know, gangs of southern Negroes are doing the laboring work hereabouts that used to be done by Huns, Italians and other white men. At a Negro conference in Washington it recently it was said that 500,003 of the Race had already left the South and were employed in other parts of the country. The shortage of labor caused by immigration stoppage is the principal reason for the exodus. It is asserted that there is work now in the north for at least 2,000,000 Negroes. And what is the effect on the south, which always has protested that the blacks are a curse to it and has sometimes declared that they should be sent back to Africa? Well, Montgomery, Ala, has passed an ordinance punishing by fine and imprisonment those who induce any laborer to leave that town. You will hear of similar unconstitutional ordinances elsewhere. You may even hear of the lynching of emigration agents. The truth is that the south is dependent on Negro labor. If hereafter the Negro goes where he is treated the best, the south may be forced to treat him better. THREE OF A KIND Lige Holman, George Harris, and George Paris, Vancouver, B.
