POLLARD, IN TRIUMPH, DEFEATS YALE POLICE CHIEF DENIES REPORT T NEWS See It In nder It's So OLI XL. NO. 47 POLLA POLI Chicago Star in Victor Chicago Boy Lone Star in Brown's Victory, 21-6 (Editor's Note.—Williams and Pollard are the only two members of the Race on the Brown eleven and in the game, but so little did the Associated Press give of the story we print it in detail.) Yale Bowl, New Haven, Coun. Saturday Afternoon.—Brown University, playing like a unit with the exception of the great Fred Pollard, the Chicago boy, whose work towered above every other player, defeated Yale this afternoon 11 to 6. The score gives little idea of the battle, its thrilling scope of play or the remarkable courage that was used throughout the game. Twenty-five thousand stood awo-sricken, then would burst forth in a frenzied cheer. Far up on the rim of the bowl the so-called experts sent the news throughout the country, the inability of Yale to push the oval was not overlooked, and so great was the work of the shining star Pollard that he was mentioned in the press dispatches. Contrary to the advanced information, Yale presented her best line-up, Le Gore, Braden and Capt. Black, all were in the fray. It was no freak of fortune that brought victory to the Providence team, it being a hard, determined, relentless attack that any eleven would wither under. Moreover, the bulldog spirit of the Yale team failed to stop it and the 1,000 loyal rooters of Brown who had journeyed by steam and electric roads handed back to the New Haven boys their own song. "Another little job for the undertaker." One thing that was clearly demonstrated to the thousands that crowded the bowl was that Fred Pollard, oftimes known as the human bullet, the speed marvel, a greyhound with Mercury UNKNOWN UNKNOWN MAN KILLED Police Puzzled Over Conflicting Statements; Pawn Broker Claims Holdup An unknown member of the Race was killed Wednesday, shortly before 11 o'clock, by Hyman Cohen, a Jew, who works for Marcus Neelman, owner of a pawnshop at 3130 South State street. Cohen claims he shot when the dead man held him up, but there are several details yet to be brought out. Only one shot was fired—that was the one that killed the man. No other witness could be found that was in the store except Neelman, Cohen and another member of their race. Cohen claims that the dead man came in and wanted to take his hand and said, "Hold up your hands." It was then that the man now dead chased Neelman around the store, while Cohen went behind the counter, got his gun and killed the man. Lieutenant defender reporter questioned Cohen, who told him that there were two men, one of whom ran out the front door after the shooting. Yet Mr. Charles M. Reece, 3261 Rhodes avenue, who was standing on the outside of the store looking at someone in the store, said: "That no one came out the front door, except Cohen, who ran north toward Thirty-first street." Mr. Reece said that the man came out following the pistol, said nothing to him about, and ran out but just ran north in an excited manner. Cohen first said the man was about to hold him up when he fired, but the report noticed that the bullet entered the man's hands. A gun was in the man's hands, which does not go to show he had it, for the store sells everything that the man had found on him and there was lots of time before when the man was killed and the police arrived to have done most anything wanted. James Hamilton, 3125 Dearborn street, said that Cohen has a habit of threatening an argument. Several other members Race, who refused to give their names, claim Cohen has shot two or three men of color on slight provocation. Nothing found in man that would identify him. He wore a pair of low tan shoes, white hose and a short overcoat. He was of a chestnut comber and looked like he might be about 30 years old. Objectives Starks and Smith were detailed on the case.

Infirmities was the cause of one of the deaths and grief and complications the cause of the other. --- ARD, I ICE Boy Lone Brown's ry, 21-6 speed, is a candidate for Walter Camp's All-American eleven despite the fact that all the Yale coaches had passed the word along all week to watch this fellow. The 15-minute interval during the second and third quarter proved to be the turning-point of the game. Scorned by the taunts of their coaches, with the Yale yells piercing their cars as they trotted back on the field, they were determined to do or die, and the six points which Yale had registered earlier in the game by two field goals were nothing once the machine-like Brown team was started with all eyes on the slippery Pollard. It was in the fourth period that Pollard made his famous run that will go down in the history of all football animals. Braden punted to Pollard on his own 40 yard line. The ball sailed high, giving the ends and tackles plenty of time to swoop down on the waiting Pollard, who judged the flight of the ball accurately and stood like a bronze statue on Brown's 40 yard line waiting for it to drop into his arms. Pollard's Great Run of 60 Yards Three tacklers lunged for him with the catch, but, like a frightened deer, he swerved to the left, eluding the arms that reached for him like grappling hooks. The next second he was off with the speed of the wind, heading straight for a swarm of on-rushing Yale men. Darting in and out, straight arming, brushing off tackler after tackler, he brought the spectators to their feet in a perfect frenzy, of excitement. Passing the swiftest men on the Yale eleven, he ran into the big fellows, but they were Continued on page seven. MAN KILLED GUN TROOP OF NINTH CAVALRY SETS RECORD Camp Stotsenburg, P. I. Nov. 17—The machine gun troop of the Ninth Cavalry, U. S. A., a regiment composed of members of the Race, recently went into gun practice and set a new record for cavalry machine gun companies. They went into action from a gallop in 12-2-5 seconds. Not only did the men do astonishingly rapid fire, fine control which they had of their guns was shown by the fact that they literally shot the line of targets down after scoring 73 hits on 65 per cent of the targets, firing 240 rounds in a minute and 100 rounds during battle sight. At another time during the tests, the troop scored 50 per cent of figures hit at 550 yards in thirty seconds' firing, and 96 per cent of figures hit at 780 yards in one minute of firing. Yet no part of our Race are allowed no opportunity to fire while the men of ordinary class can make such a splendid record as this.

This is only a stepping stone, id the Lincoln League will he be kept and ready to support its candidates from the unuilary. No.1 met at the resumes: Annie. L. Harris. 382 meetings, last Sunday after- be preserved to posterity along with that of Lieutenant Adair. This black trooper fought side by side with Lieutenant Adair at Carrival, until their ammunition was exhausted and the lieutenant mortally wounded. The lieutenant, knowing he could not survive, forced the black man, against his will, to seek safety. The valorous trooper, as a last token of fealty to his commander, returned to the ditch, held him up so his head would be out of the water until he died, and with heavy heart made his way to safety after much suffering and hardship. Mr. Isaac Fisher, University editor of the News, has received from the adjunct general's office the following communication from the colonel of the Tenth Cavalry establishing the identity of this black hero: "It is probable that the trooper referred to in the within letter is Peter Bigstaff, who was troop far-rier at the time of the Carrifal engagement and has since been promoted to sergeant. It was Sergeant Bigstaff who returned to Lieutenant Adair and held his (Adair's) head above the water of the ditch until Adair died, and who then carried Adair's body out of the ditch. "Colonel Cavaliar Commanding." Trooper Bigstaff has given the world the highest exemplification of the true friendship that a man can willingly lay his heart to for his friend. Bigstaff went through death at thousand times in that battle of and when the hour of parting came, remeant to him. There was a spark of life left and the faintest hope lingered that he might be spared. The impunity with which he handled the enemy led to Leutenant Adair marks a tie between comrades which the civilian can scarcely appreciate. If the past year has prostrated him, the Spingarm medal the public is not aware of it. The Fisk University News is to be organized that it has an editor who is responsible to the race, and the people of the country would do well and bestow an honor on one who is worthy, by urging Ser-Diaghist of Bigstaff for the Spingarm medal in 1915. present, after which a very delicious repast was served and delightfully endowed by the president, Mrs. Lula B.

He gave the conductor a coin and expected to get the right change. He took twenty cents out of the coin for the two. There was a bunch of motormen on the car and when it reached 40th and Indiana, about 12:30 a.m., an argument took place and the motorman struck him with his controller. Reece drew a knife and cut two of the men across the face. He then ran to keep from being further beaten up. Plain clothes officer, a member of the Race, saw the mlee, but made no attempt to stop it, but as soon as Reece ran, started after him, firing his gun. Reece came to a standstill and the other was on the other side, but to the former and allowed him back to lap. Reece in the face, and beat him again. After Reece was given another beating the officer told Reece he had no business to cut the men and then placed him under arrest. One fellow he cut weighed 310 pounds. Young Reece is well known on the South Side, is quiet and peacable. This is the first time that he has ever been in trouble. He works for some very wealthy and influential business. The trial, which comes off this week in the Municipal Court of Justice, will be watched with interest.

ORGAIZATION SOCIETY MEETS Hampton, Va., Nov. 17—The Fourth Annual Meeting of the Negro Organization of Virginia, whose motto is "Better Schools, Better Homes, Better Farms," was held in Roanoke Nov. 8-10. Several hundred men and women who are active in organization of the health campaigns, farm demonstration work, extension work, and social services, participated in the parts of Virginia to make reports on the constructive work which is being done by enlisting the co-operation of large groups of people in social and economic problems. The reports indicated clearly that Dr. Robert R. Moton, principal of Tuskegee University, succeeded in winning thousands of people to the idea that communities, like the one at Tuskegee, can guarantee progress when they face home-based social facts, and when they merge their individual differences into the common cause of working for their best common Maj.

"JIM C St. Louis oared" Means Segregation St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 17.—im- cent issue of the St. Louis C an article appears asking the bore of the Race to come out demand a "Colored" hospital cities Philadelphia, Chicago and o cities as an example. Many w have read the article have become incensed over it, knowing full well that such a move segregation Provident hospital in Chicago (the adjective 'provident' not 'know') is not a municipal institution. A hospital is in the Windy City z and ther is the Cook county, where all races and ethnicities are attended to go to some private institution. Provident is a private hospital, its nurses and doctors are made up of members of the city BUT NOT the entire half of its patients are white. There are more white men on the board of directors than members of the Race Commission, more of a training school for nurses. The people here do not want segregation in hospitals any more than in Chicago. A hospital the people and not a class of people on account of their color. How can the press and the citizens hope for segregation when they can for it simply be the ambitions of a selected few? DON'T BE AFRAID TO LEAVE The San Antonio Inquirer states that the best way to succeed is to stay in the south and "let your buckets down where they are," claiming that there is no better place than the south to pull together with the white man. This southern member of the Race must have a pair of blinders on, or else he is playing to the southern white. No worst place a man can live than where "Jim Crow" laws, bastardly and the kind go on in the way of the least objection even on the part of the courts, especially when a white man and a woman of Race are concerned. The only solution of this problem is the intermarriage of races without interference of the law so that children coming from such union can carry the name of their father. Members of the Race should be like the Russian Jew who fled Russia, and its tyrant ruler, to places where better conditions existed, and not listen to those who would sell their soul for a mess of pottage where they were the prese, the production of the professor, strike out; come anywhere north of the Mason and Dixon line and there is plenty of work.

Today the Republican party stands defiantly against the will of the president, and that Theodore Roosevelt are still two of the biggest men in American politics, East and West. The fact, that the election results emphasizes the fact, that the Republican party will never win until it meets the progressive demands of Roosevelt and Johnson, progressive running mates in the West. Yet so far the "standpoint" of the east. New York state, which has held a ruling position in the state, has has been backed off the stage as pivot. The 1916 Republican convention will go down in history as the worst mismanaged battle of the Republican party, with the mack of a McCormack, clutch with the Merv of a Hertz, the western campaign manager, say it should be written in justice to him, that his hands were tied and that for the most part he was a fool. The Cowboy building headquarters in Chicago in "office boy" fashion. Hert finished the campaign decidedly "anti-standoff." The "standoff" who hate Roosevelt and Johnson, killed Hughes, the Chicagoans. The defeat of the Republicans in the West is laid directly at the door of Murray Crane of Massachusetts, the former lieutenant in the New York Republican headquarters. There was money galore for the "standpat" organizations throughout the country, but nothing for the prosecution, who wanted to save the West for Hughes. The sign blazoned from the Atlantic to the Pacific by the "old guard" was "save the organization though Hughes be deceived." The sign read, "the publican, was forced upon the 'old guard' in the Chicago convention last June and the 'old guard' started on out of control, and the progressives. They did, and the results are written in states like California, Minnesota, North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Washington and Nevada. He was married for Rosevelt and he was not sent. Used $3,000,000 to $4,000,000 It is estimated that the Republican national committee expended between $3,000,000 and $4,000,600 in the campaign. He was to be used in the states enumerated above went to Wilson. The $2,500 was denied. Men who were in the heat of the of the campaign declared the $25,000 would be used. Progressives were ignored in them. "Col. Roosevelt felt that he should not make more than four or five set speeches in the campaign test it might appear he had to make. He was a western leader in his postmortem. "You know Hughes does not like Roosevelt anymore. The colonel was ready to go wherever the war was assigned. He felt that he was going to where he talked in Arizona, New Mexico and Kentucky, was a waste of time and energy. The 'standpatters' in the East were determined to keep Roosevelt out of the lightest as much as they dared. "Grizzled Jim in Northwest was wanted him in Northwest." "Cries of fear came from Washington, the Dakotas, Utah and Minnesota. They were unheeded. Roosevelt came to Illinois and you may make to Colorad We are the 1916 Style Book We are the largest manufactur ers of colored womens hair, and in order to in their place our goods we are sending the latest book, to the gig styles of colored womens in the latest hair dressing.

He worked to this time to up against a stone, wall in the New York, he had started to work on the occupats went out for progressive votes in all the doubtful states. They wasted no time on Democrats. They said the West was going to be their through the progressive party missionary work and they were on the other side. Col. Roosevelt has a perfect allibil. He talked in Illinois, New York, Pennsylvania, Michigan, Connecticut and New Jersey and all these states are in the Hughes column. After his Chicago reception Roosevelt said Illinois was safe. He said he would have been the most late and the same in a period. His friend say. In California Gov. Johnson is elected United States senator by a two to one vote. The "standpat" element was so strong in the Hughes campaign management. It is asserted that the John Smith could save the Golden Gate state for Hughes although he did what he could, his friends declare. Illinois was saved for Hughes by Roosevelt's visit and by the Republican state committee and the powerfully efficient organization built up in the pri- campaign by Col. Frank O. Lowden's campaign manager, William H. Stead. Sent Little Money to Illinois the little money to Illinois. "Not only did the funders come to Illinois until the last ten days, and then the money was squandered in duplication of advertisements," the state headquarters said. "The men in charge of the national headquarters here did not know of the advertising contracts made by the state headquarters, went ahead and made contracts duplicating what the national committee did. I venture to assert that in Illinois alone the last days in duplication of advertisements to have saved to Hughes any one of the doubtful states. The headquarters were ignored by the eastern headquarters in campaign efforts and we had to send literature to the women because the woman'sBUILDER had lacking sufficient funds. We had to national campaign literature. The eastern managers left Illinois to drift for a while and the state committee saved the day." The manner in which the West was ignored in the campaign was reflected in conduct of the highest special train of the state, the state fair time. The correspondents of the eastern newspapers were treated like prima donna in compartment cars, reporters for western papers were led to berths in work room cars on the train. Further than this, the women members of the race went ignored till it was too late. The women who see fit to register, thinking the duty of voting was for the men, and forgetting that their votes would make up for the mothers and sisters in the south, who were not registered in the ballot.

ABROMATTOX CLUB DANCE One of the Most Ignorant Theorys As to What Is the Best Road to Civilization Is Held by Female Historian in Texas and Her Fool Ideas Are Glorified by Her Cracker Hearers. CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE Dallas, Tex., Nov. 11—The institution of a military academy was held as a blessing to the people of African descent in an address made by a white woman named Mildred Lewis, a federacy during their convention held here a few days ago. In her crazy haranguke she not only tried to justify her own views, she compared the brutal traffickers in humanity who lived on the sweat of slave laborers before the war with those laborers in other plans elsewhere or at other times. In speaking of the slave drivers of the south she said: "These were men of the old Cavalier stock and the fear of God gave them minds attuned to justice and anan, in her efforts to please the ears of these Daughters of the Disruption of the Union, forget the 2,000,000 or more illegitimate progeny of the Cavaliers she mentions banged in them out of the side of her head by the men who were beaten into submission and forced to cohabit and bear children with these beasts who today this female heterodox would praise? She further claims that the civilization of the south was deserved by the 13th, 14th and 15th amendments and the interference of the north. She remarked that in the old days there was leisure to think, to read and to meditate. "It is now hurry, hurry, hurry, to keep up with modern conditions. How restful the old life was! A happy life, peace and happiness is presented." This wonderful woman didn't tell her sister Daughters, however, that the change in the social scale of the south in the past meant that the Cavalier nowadays finds it handler to get out and work, knowing that failure to do so means either object poverty or actual starvation. They have given up their land and are depended upon in these days and there are many of the Cavaliers of yesterday among the ragged inmates of the poor farms of the south. They have told us what these lynch-bilies of the south would be willing to do if it were possible to transform the present situation of the lady manned. The lazy whites of the south will have more work to do with the coming of next spring. Every man lynched them, then less lesson was given to them daily working and with the same idea of leaving that blood-stained section of "God's country" and heading north, where the living are more comfortable where men and women can live their lives in safety and with self-respect.

There has never been an act of this description in which she was presented, even break all around and it was the concensus of opinion among those present that the act as it stands today is better than any of the acts presented at the show. The strated why Miss Coates and her tracker-jacks count their time in consecutive form. The team of Dale & Archer presented a novelty offering that was away from getting into difficulties with the team, the clever team got all that was possible in her assistance of a young lady whose name did not show on the score board. The fifth on was billed as the Ham Tree good sense unexplainable, but furnished good humor, sending the patrons out happily.

Our crest teams ever seen at this theater are doing great work and this act rounds out one of the best and even built the crest ever seen here. Our Walkin' the Dog contest drew the intralarge houses. BROOKS & BOWEN The great team of Brooks & Bowen will be seen at the Grand all next week. They are just finishing the entire Pantagoras circuit, having been out for five weeks.

There have been many acts to go over the Pan time, but few of them have been able to perform well. They are so well known locally that they are so well known locally that they are proud of Chicago as Chicago is proud of them. They should get a chance to show them next week, and if the Grand don't do capacity, I miss my guess. UNDER NEW MANAGEMENT Philadelphia, Pa.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER A SENSATION A SENSATION Of all the film productions announced for this autumn none has raised greater interest than the presentation of that magnificent, tremendously popular star, Clara Kimball (1910-1987) formation of Robert W. Chambers world famous novel, Common Law, which will be seen at the States Theater on two occasions, 18 and 19. In addition to the combinatorial favorite star and favorite American author, the production is particularly noteworthy as the first offering of the Clara Kimball series, organized by Mr. Lewis J. Sounik for the purpose of presenting the noted screen star on the open booking plan, free from the restraining influences of a program organized by Mr. Lewis J. Sounik for the purpose of her director general, Albert Capelann, the famous French master of screen craft, who is best known to the public for his ducer of such illustrious features plays as Les Misérables and Camille. It is expected that the picture will set a new mark for novel and artistic photographie well as for breadth and power in action. The star has been surrounded by a cast of players of the highest order. The leading male role has been entrusted to the best known and popular leading men on the American stage. Paul Cappellani, who played Armand to Miss Young Gail Cappellani, played the villain, the villian, Miss Edna Hunter, long a favorite with Universal and Vigraph followers, plays the sympathetic Cook, formerly with the World Film Producers her charming personality to the portrayal of the ingene part. Others in the cast include Stuart Stuart, Edward Kirk, and D. J. Flannigan and Edward Mortimer. The story of Common Law has been changed very little in its adaptation to screen requirements. The millions who have read the novel and were thrilled with it, and the millions for its heroines, will find the pictureized more to their liking, while those who have never read the story will enjoy the picture for its own sake as one of the few worth while film productions of the year the matinee each days starts at the cinema, and the mous cost of booking, the admission will be 15 cents. Over 120,000 people viewed the feature during its long run at the Studebaker Theater, at high prices, and the press notices were the greatest ever accorded a moving picture. Don't miss WHERE ARE YEH?

I must be a fine thing to you, and you can get all the beans and hardtack you can eat, and I don't imagine that there is much work for six men to keep your navy clean.

You see, I wear a sailor hat every time the weather was bad I noticed that if I had that hat on I made me seakit. The poem you sent is a dream, and I submit it to Tom Lembley, looking for a novelty in the way of a new partner that will stick after he got a dime or two.

What is the letter of this letter is a duplicate of many that have to hand regarding the great features released by the Lincoln Motion Picture Company. These have come unsoldlisted because the features are proving be the best that they can not only make the managers who use them happy, but it goes to show that a meritorious production made by our people is bound to get recognition. When the managers are enough to book high priced goods of this kind he deserves the support of the Race against all others, and will get it, too. The Trooper of Troop K, is the greatest big feature. The Spiders, and the patrons of the theaters should demand that the managers book it and The Realization of a Negro's Ambition, as they are what is claimed for them—the greatest productions of their kind in existence. I might add also that you are some scuttler, whatever that is. The song as a whole should bring a good smile, but a good many goes with it.

On the bill here we had a sensational lion act—Deloitte we had a Miss Mamie Payne of the team of Pamela and sang the song "Mother" in the lions' cage. She did this three times a night for three successive nights the last half of week. It was the only case on record when we had a lion serve to do such a thing, and all had some photos furnished showing the remarkable novelty. Yours truly, Chas Turpin, B. T., Washington Theater. (Editor's Comment—Miss Payne certified a game young lady, but she used great skill. In the selection of song used. When he called "Mother" a short time ago at the Monogram I felt real tame myself.

H. DOUG_ASS 59-361-363 Broadway A SCREEN/STAR According to Clara Kimball Young, the popular film star, who will be seen at the States this Saturday and Sunday, is the director of a fault with most producers of motion pictures lies in their misconception of what the so-called photo-drama is at its heart. "The motion picture is not a play or a drama, but a narrative," said Miss Young in a recent interview. "There is all the difference in the world between magnificent novels world and hopelessly as staged dramas, and yet make film motion pictures. On the other hand, the house form drama loses half its power when movies can curl successfully produced as a motion picture at all. The solution is a simple one. Story tells itself a art to that of the dramatist. Of course, the potentially dramatic, but it is the wide range of incident and character drawing that makes a big story, whereas a small one is entirely for situations and climatic effect. "Anyone who will think over the list of who will successful pictures during the past two years will find the truth of my claim that the best pictures are those that merely try to tell the story of what happened, and attempt too far to infringe upon the true province stage. As a case in point, the Spoilers, which story made a dreadful story and a wonderful success as a picture."

Or a he served for deserts, y of meat. Or it calls only for y it can be made a notice. For luncheon, of course, the omelet may be the main dish for breakfast in the day, lightest ways of serving eggs. You have guests in the house who come to breakfast at different times, or serve the usual breakfast of today which comes to the table as he gets ready for breakfast, an omelet seems at first thought a very poor sort of egg dish to serve. For we all know that an omelet must be eaten the moment it is cooked. So try serving a separate omelet to each breakfast. Mix the omelet mixture—eggs beaten up, seasoned with salt, milk, and water. Then as each omelet is wanted, pour a little of the mixture into the omelet pan and cook it in a small omelet of individual size. Some people prepare a cons of heavy cream over an omelet while carrying it from the kitchen to the dining room, as the cold air striking on the omelet shrinks it very quickly. It is really a good plan to call every one to the kitchen to help with the sweet omelet for dessert should be highly sweetened before cooking with teaspoonful of powdered sugar to six fl. Use also a pinch of salt. Cook and bread with jam or jelly, rather lightly, and then add the omelet. A bread omelet is easier to make than any other kind, and is delicious to boot. To make it fill a cup with bread crumbs and then fill the cup with milk. When add one egg, then slightly. Then add two eggs, then slightly. Then add three eggs, then slightly. Season with salt and pepper and cook in the usual fashion. in a quiet but pleasant way. Mr. Sobers absolutely refused to be interviewed on the subject when approached by one of his friends.

AMERICAN INDIAN RECITAL REVIEWED AMERICAN INDIAN RECITAL REVIEWED By Mise Nor Douglas (Written Specially for the Chicago Defender) On Wednesday morning, Nov. 15, at 11 a.m., the morning, Ward Cedilda Weld Cedilda Weld, a Prince Telsianan, a full-blooded American Indian, gave a recital at the Ziegfeld theater based on Indian music. The music lovers and students interested in folk lore and ethnology, were warm and appreciative and the applause was well meted for. Cedilda has caught the spirit of the American Indian, while Princess Telsianan, an educated and cultured singer, gave a deep insight into the music, since by her exquisite interpretation of the The recital was one that every member of our Race should have heard, and especially those interested in the art of the younger generation to decry "Negro folk songs" as belonging to the past, depressing the sorrows and the longings of a burdened people, and quite out of place in the musical world, out of our hands out that the folk song of the nation's foundation upon which that nation or people must build its future. In the musical world, and our music will never interest in Indian music, is clothing it in such magnificent garments, some of which are not only original, but joined, for through several of the melodies I noticed a marked trace of Negro folk song intonations, that his work is going beyond the value of the thematic material, and that he is to make it the folk music of America. In this I believe he cers, for the Negro folk song is preeminently the only folk song of America, which stands out as the most INTEGRATING, ADAPTABLE and TYPICAL. Mr. Kriebiel says in his book on Afro-American Folk Songs: "Folk music that is provoked by suffering is the finest and truest." He says, further, in chapter 2 of the same book, "It would never have occurred to me to undertake to prove the existence of genuine folk songs in America, AND THOSE WERE THE SONGS THAT WERE CREATED BY THE BLACK SLAVES OF THE SOUTHERN STATES, if the fact of such existence had been denied by at least one writer who had affected the scientific manner and it had not become the habit of certain classes of writers in this country, while conceding the interesting character of the song, to refuse them the right to be called American, a foolish pride on the part of one class of Americans of more or less English ancestry and more easily understood and more pardonable prejudice on the part of FORMER slave holders and their descendants might explain this attitude in New England and the south." Essau's Birthright Stolen Hence we see that Essau's birthright is about to be stolen from him and the Negro is his own salvation. Let every musician work to the end that "Negro music shall have forth its destiny." Almeida's German music is to: Germany, French music is to France and Russian music is to Russia.

Recently he was discussing certain poems with a Race man whom he had every reason to suspect knew something of the subject. During the discussion the "pencil man" called attention to Paul Laurence Dunbar. The Race man had never even heard of Paul Laurence Dunbar. How many more Colored folks in the United States, we told him, were not a Race man, not a Narrative writer, nor read his works? *Why is it that so many southern-born Race people delight in glorifying love of one's birth in the south? Can love of one's birth be a one people? The "pencil man" recently overheard a conversation in which another Race man was condemning the Colored man is treated in the State. The Race man happened to have come originally from Georgia, and he promptly took exceptions to anything being said Georgia. This, in spite of the fact that recent Race people have met death at the hands of the mob in Georgia than in any other state in the ungodly south.* Delivers Powerful Sermon Rev. George Frasor Miller, rector of St. Augustine's P. E. church, St. Edwards street, Brooklyn, delivered a powerful sermon to a large congregation at the 11 o'clock morning, service held in the church Sunday morning last week, from Kings, 19th chapter 12-14-14 to 12-14-15. In chapter 12-14-14 to 12-14-15, the zealot, whose faith in God was unshakable. How the hand of the Lord was shown to be in the wind, among the rocks, even in the earth, was shown to be in the wind, even in the earth. But Elijah believed. In the 18th verse Elijah says, "Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed into Baal, and my mouth which hath not kissed him." St. Barnabas Bazjar The annual bazaar of St. Barnabas P. E. church, Balmont avenue, Brooklyn, closed Friday evening, after a fairly successful run all week. Monday evening, the opening night, the attendance was very high, and there was very disagreeable weather that evening. Mrs. Daniel J. Motly, chairman of the bazaar committee, worked like a Trojan for the success of the fair. Maximo P. Duty, priest-in-charge, also worked like a Trojan, bazaar. Every credit possible goes to them for their faithful work. This struggling mission needs funds, and needs them badly, for the proper carrying on of their work in East New York; for the church in East New York; for the church on Belmont avenue.

ADDITIONAL SPORT Flays Methods and Umpiring in Indianapolis; Concerning Recent Series Owing to the many letters received at this office, asking who were champions, the A. B. C.'s or the American Giants, at my request Mr. Foster has covered the article, telling why he withdrew his team, and as you read you will see that the Defender was right when it said the series stands four won each, it being the only paper that did say so—Sport Editor. The question of whether the A. B. C.'s champions has been put to me hundreds of times, at Indianapolis, and my answer is No. Based on the facts, and contract law and myself, the agreement called for a series of Twelve games. For the A. B. C. to Win, or the American Giants to Win, was no question. But games—there was no stipulation that the winner of the majority of the games would be the Champions, but twelve of the Seven out of twelve games to be Champions. Just why such would have been possible, the conditions play, is not an Injustice to baseball, the Fans of Indianapolis, but the American Giants as well. This will be conclusively proven in a statement in the Ledger of Sept. 11, 1916. C. I. TAYLOR REPLIES TO SCATCHING ATTACK OF CHICAGO SPORTS BASEBALL. B. LEADER RELLS HIS SIDE IN C. I. TAYLOR'S SIONATE REVIEW OF THE WHOLE CHICAGO-SERIES—THE PEERLESS LOCAL MANAGER PUTS HIS CASE HIGHLY INTO THE HANDS OF THE INMPARTIAL BASEBALL PUBLIC. Note again the DEFENDER knows full well that the American Giants and A. B. C. have Twelve Games to play for the Colored Championship, and that only Five of the games have been played —American Giants winning Three, A. B. C. one—resulting in a tie. That puts the American Giants Two games ahead of the Indianapolis Club for the Colored Championship, with EIGHT FULL GAMES to be played to complete the Championship series. We fail to mention the new for Sport Sheet of any reputable newspaper to carry lines deloering either club World's Champions, when there is a stipulated agreement that Twelve games are to be played for the Championship (COLORED TITLE) and only four of the games have been played to a decision, yet the DEFENDER in Glaring Headlines, "American Giants Again World's Champions," if the two clubs are engaged in a twelve game series for the Title and one club should win Three of the first Four games played, we fail to see why they should be declared "World's Champions" by any well informed sport writer, for with eight full games behind the club which is two games behind the club which is chance catch up, and even win the赛. The DEFENDER says itself that twelve games are to be played, then after Four games have been played, for it to declare the club in the Lead Champions is beyond our comprehension. There is yet some virtue in the truth. We believe that the people are as anxious for facts now as in days past. In spite of the statement that the American Giants are again "World's Champions", the A. B. C. of Indianapolis have eight more games to play with that club for that title before the people of this country will rightfully win. The champions really are. Cheap notoriety does make for permanent success. Signed.

THE CHICAGO LVFENDER SLAIN MAN IDENTIFIED The man killed by Cohen in Niaman's pawnshop, 3130 State St., Wednesday noon was found to be Wilford Hill, 2948 La St., a hard working, industrious man. Much mystery surrounds case. "The Birth of a Nation" is barred in Evanston through efforts of members of the Race. asked by the editors of the Freeman and the Ledger if American Globe would they be Champions, and I told them under the agreement with Taylor said. I had better be POSSIBLE, and Knox said. I had better be as things are not as they have been represented to me. Knox, calling Taylor up, asked him if the A. B. C.s won tomorrow, and he said he would him, beyond a doubt, "Yes." This was only the invisible hand that was weaving the unfair spirit of the fans, but had refused to play other than constructed. Series Should Be American Giante Four, A. B. C. Four The Tuesday's game that was forfeited to the A. B. Cs would never in a thousand and a half be awarded to the A. B. Cs under the rules of the game, have been thrown out and ordered to be played over again. It was so raw and uncalled for; I had taken the club from the A. B. Cs and doing so, admitting that I regard taking a club off the field one of the gravest crimes in baseball, and would not under any circumstances be regarded of the declination, where it was not the moment of the umpire, covering the things that the rules emphatically state, there is no protest. An unanticipated from the game was NOT a point of judgment on the part of the umpire, but one of HUMILIATION, and against the rules of the game, was not a point of judgment on the book of rules. All that saw the games played between the two clubs will admit that every club action during the season was not CA, and not once during the series, was of such a nature as to even be cautioned during our stay at Indianapolis, and we accepted for granted, it was the rule of the umpire, so mild our actions. In the third game I went down on the first base line to coach, after the close of an inning, picked up the glove at first and put it on my hands. Ben Taylor told the umpire to make me take it off. He asked me to take it off. At first, he thought he was joking, but he got the answer. He was not one of the others, either. He asked him if it was against the rules. He said he did not know, and I said, then, "We will appeal to the umpire-in-chief." Appealing to him, I related what the umpire had said to me, and he admitted that it was NOT against the rules, and I called back to me and said, "Taylor came back at me and said, 'You will have to take it off.'" I told him I was playing by the playing rules and not Taylor's rules. He said that I would have to take it off or leave the line—holding up the game. I then took the ball club off the field, and it was done to keep the game going. He was not at all at ease, but have been done, without the least demonstration. Can you imagine a club contesting for a title subjected to such unfairness? It was so RAW, and the intentions were so evident, that I refused to play, only as contracted; in so doing I know what the umpire said. He was not at all排他, but my actions were MORE than VINDICATED the following Sunday, when at the opening of the first scheduled game I took my position at first base, as in the game forfeited, picked up the GLOVE, and again put it on my hand as before. Taylor again objected, but the umpire-in-chief, Mr. Taylor, was in the lead, and he was in every way obeying the rules, and he was an umpire that knew the rules from A to Z.

ATLANTA UNIVERSITY BEATS TALLADEGA, 7-0 Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 17—Atlanta University proved that her showing against the Talladega was not as severely defeated Tuskegee, was not an accident when she met and defeated the strong Talladega team to 0. The game was played on Saturday, Nov. 10, and with ideal weather a large crowd was in attendance. The second game was in long forwards pass, which resulted in a Maxwell klicked goal. Thereafter A. U. played a defensive game, as she did on the first play. The entire Morehouse team was on the side lines watching for new play. Twice the team scored on yard line, but did not succeed in carrying the leather over. Talladega became dangerous only once, and that was in the second play. The string men of Atlanta were in, but the regulars soon stopped this rally. Atlanta defeated Talladega. Her biggest one when she meets Morehouse on Saturday was U. defeats Morehouse and Flick winnings from Morehouse, then the logical thing would be a post-season game between Morehouse and Flick for the championship of the south. MOOREHOUSE-FISKE GAME Atlanta, Ga., Nov. 17. In one of the last weeks last week Flick stated that she played girls, and that she has only one more. Howard. It is to be considered, however, that Morehouse plays Fisk on the womens team. It is at least expected, especially since Morehouse goes to Nashville with a most presentable record for this season. They are all in the womens column: Morehouse 47, Clark University; 0; Morehouse 32, Morris Brown College; 0; Morehouse 32, Tuskegee Institute 0. The team has met ill luck in the past two games—two of the men are out, for one of the players has been out, third will get back. Coach Harvey now has the problem of filling these breaches by the Fisk game. Game is subject to the number of games played between Fisk and Morehouse. Morehouse has won one game more than Fisk, and her natural intention is to win. In this same article Fisk was spoken of as in the "undisputed champions of the game," and this unless a meaning for "disputed" has been given in the sense of the statement, and that a tabulation of those considered "disputed" had been given. If on the other hand "disputed" is taken literally, and Talia-da, Morehouse and Tuskegee have a voice in the dispute, they concede the disputed season for Fisk's championship.

C., Nov. 11.—Howard University defeated Lincoln in their annual football battle on Howard's campus by the score of 28 to 6. On Saturday, Just before the game, it began to rain, but not sufficiently to interfere with the accurate handling of the ball. A considerable crowd of the two alumni, student and staff, gathered on the western side of the field at Lincoln's partisan, many hundred strong, directly across from there was a large number of 30 places in the midst of the students. Lincoln kicked off, but after a few minutes Howard had the ball on the ground. Lincoln passed through a fumble Lincoln got the ball and Byard punted. The first quarter was a struggle, up and down the field, which it was it were, to the outcome of the game. In the second quarter long runs and line plugging, which brought the cheerening of the quarter first waning, Gilmore got away almost unnoticed and intercepted a forwards pass, scoring the goal, making Howard's first touchdown. McCain failed to kick goal and the first touchdown scored to 0. In Howard's favor, the score was accomplished in the third quarter, while their last points were made at opening and closing of the last period. Capt. Grimmage of Howard played an admirable game. Though he received a kick in the face, the team began, he refused to leave his boys. Stratton was the bright light in Howe's back field, while he was in the game, the quarterback and ran his team in general are worthy of high praise. Bendhughes and Coleman were the men who made the difference, which the former ran back punts is especially noteworthy; and the way in which the latter circled Lincoln's ends is commendable. Capt. Burton of the losers was the individual star of the game. In the second half, he was in the right eye, which closed it. Ed to the size of an apple, yet he played the entire game. He made numerous great formations "K" several times, and held his warriors together. Proctor played the game of his life. New York won, he was kept back. Even when he got his ankle twisted the second time he wouldn't come out. Orcher and Waters played brain football, and he was kept busy punting the ball out of Lincoln's danger zone. Duggey, Lincoln's star fullback, and Waters got gullet. Duggey, work also deserved, praises. The battle was hard fought. Howard outlayed Lincoln, but the boys from the outlayed team not outgamed. The game was clean throughout. Outlayed Lincoln game is the greatest scholastic and social event of the Race. The great principle held by both universities is not to work eagerly with the students, but to empower themselves also in the persecution of it. Truly, there are hundreds who regret Thanksgiving day, so let us remember them that it will be played again on the day of "turkey and cranberry sauce." Thank you to God for national mercles.

Nov. 17—Kenney Holbroke, the halfback who created such a sensation a dozen years ago, was killed in a football team, is dead in California, says a message received here from the coast.

St. Louis, Mo., Nov. 17—When Knox college football team took the field against Washington university at Francis field, in this city, last Saturday, Hambulin, the star Negro half back, was missing from the line-up. With the advances heralding the feats of the team, Knox led the Hill, Ill. Coach Edmunds of the Pilkers issued an iron-clad edict against all athletes that were members of the Racet competing at Hambulin has been Knox's greatest ground gainer this season, and he has been the player that teat up the Pikeway defense. However, Edmunds wired lice De Tray, the Knox coach, and reached an agreement with player replaced Hambulin in the line-up. The following telegram received Friday morning said: "Hamblin positively will not play against Washington. He will not even make the trip." It is not surprising that Washington should object to a man like Hamblin, if for no other reason that than he is one of Knox's best men. It is difficult to arrive at a reasonable conclusion why a man like Hamblin should be barred, save for the fact Washington wished to take advantage of the color line to bar one of Knox's best men and thus obtain an advantage which would appear unsportsmanlike under any other condition. There have been many occasions during the last summer where white athletes competed with full negro teams in athlete events. On many afternoons the St. Louis Giants met St. Louis's best white baseball teams and defeated them and there was no talk of the color line. There is small different in coming into contact with a Negro on a scrimmage line in football and meeting the spikes of one silding into a bag in a baseball game. In both there is personal contact and athletic equality. It is true, however, that our boys are feared as a competitor in all athletic events, and when one is a member of a white team, it is invariably the rule that he is one of the best on the team. The prowess as an athlete has been demonstrated (time and again) to the Jackson, George Dixon, Joe Wasson, Walcott, Jack Johnson, Howard Drew, Warren Care, Taylor of the team, Pennsylvanian have shown, not mediocry, but supremacy in their particular line of sport and the easiest way out of a difficult meet almost certain defeat at their hands the color line offers a convenient subterfuge and the easiest way out of a difficult there are three colleges in St. Louis which claim to have football teams, but the team is not poor second-raters. It is not no disgrace to be refused to compete with them on the gridiron, but rather an acknowledgment of the team's lack of no prestige through the objectives of Coach Edmunds, yet there is some criticism because the Knox coach has lost no prestige of his football machine. The Knox coach authorities should have a little more backstory to the example of Tufts college of Medford, Mass, at Indianapolis, Ind., where they told the Hoosiers they would take the trait of a draw a color line on Brown or Morrison. Brown university played both Pollar and Williams against Tale. Pollar wore a jacket himself. Tale started age 18 at Tale a year before. Age 24 at Syracuse. The coach at Syracuse is the Coach much at fault and the school should a for his resignation or Hamblin should together. If he is not good enough to play one game, he should refuse to play at all.

Life's sunshine comes to he who from the rough his fortune hews, And not unto the one who waits to step in dead men's shoes. THE DIFFERENCE ALTHOUGH THE FOREIGNER who comes to this country is devoid of prejudice when he arrives, it is but a very short time before he is thoroughly inoculated with the germ and takes his place along with the other ninety and nine narrow, un-Christian-like Americans. After fifty years of freedom we are cognizant of the fact that prejudice is on the increase North, South, East and West, and it is to be expected. Races are like individuals when it comes to a matter of progress. The man who vegetates, who has no ambition to go ahead and do things, of course, meets with no opposition; he is a negative quantity; he neither gets a push nor a pull, but is entirely ignored. The aggressive, hustling, up-to-the-minute man meets with all kinds of opposition; stumbling blocks are placed in his way, his every action is open to criticism, and yet these very odds inspire him to greater things. And so with our people we are forging ahead too quickly; we are crowding out the white laggards and forcing the energetic ones to spur up to keep us pass them. If this is not cause enough for jealousy and friction, what else is? Admitting that it is unjust, can we expect different treatment than that accorded other peoples while emerging from the darkness into the light? Many Americans can be termed educated ignoramuses; the big bogy man, social equality, is ever before their eyes and warps their better judgment. As a concrete example of how well white and black can blend together one needs but to turn to British Honduras. Here, as in the United States, Colored people were brought as slaves from West Africa and their descendants now form a large part of the population. But their lot was always better than that which fell to their brethren who were carried to the southern part of this country. They were never harshly treated, and perhaps for good reasons. Their masters gave them guns and took them up the river to fight Indians. Of course, one has to be careful how one manages a man who carries a gun. Governor Sir William Collett says: "The Negroes have always had real opportunity for development here. They now represent a good type of citizen—docile, yet progressive. The government is about to send 400 of them as volunteers to France. In fact, over 400 have already been dispatched. THERE IS NO COLOR LINE IN THE BRITISH ARMY. White and black start in together as raw recruits and are promoted only according to merit. There are two Colored captains among a officers of the Honduras troops. They are excellent fighters and have plenty of pluck." One can judge something of the character of the Honduras population from a study of their jail. There are only about twenty prisoners. It is interesting to note that while English the language of the colony, the language of the jail population is Spanish. It is also interesting that the color of the jail population is considerably lighter than that of the colony generally. A great many of the prisoners are foreigners from Mexico and Guatamala. All of which goes to prove that there ever has been something radically wrong in the South, else they would as free from the "eternal question" as is British Honduras, rely there's a difference. The Good Lord and Miss Ann IT CAN NEVER BE SAID OF US that we are an ungrateful On the contrary, we have been kicked and buffeted around much that we are thankful for even the things that are rightly due to us. It must be remembered that what we did and right was right in those dark yesterdays, today might be to wrong and detrimental. And so we take issue with the born woman who is trying to dissuade the Colored people in leaving that section of the country, who says in a local er: "The Southern white woman understands the longings and is of the Negroes to better themselves. With infinite pa-she trains the girls to be matchless housemaids, cooks and cooks. The Southern white woman has such a tenderness for such a sensibility to human suffering and sorrow, such to see human beings honest, honorable and self-reliant. Negro mother is given the ham bones, biscuits, vegeta-d other lettowers from each meal to take home to her family. She is given the worn clothing and shoes, old carpets and stoves and many other useful articles to make the humble home comfortable and cheerful. The of this great kindness and inestimable good done the of the South lies in the fact that it is wholly AN ACTUE CHARITY AND PURE UNSELFISHNESS WITHOUT URIGHT OF PRAISE." CHICAGO DEFENDER THE REJECTED STONE PUT THAT STONE UP THERE INSTEAD OF THE FOREIGN ONE Fonholly of the gods. Why "with infinite patience" did she train girls to be matchless cooks or housemaids, so they could make their way honorably in the world, or because they could better serve their white mistress? And now with fifty years of freedom the South bids us to forget our manhood and womanhood and linger in the land of cotton and sugar cane, our men crushed in spirit and the object of every lynching bee; our women the prey, as they have ever been, of any white man who so takes a fancy. For a person black or white to know that someone is standing back of them to catch them should they fall, is very detrimental to that individual. He isn't standing on his own feet. Too long have we been wards eating at the second table. We must arouse ourselves, get out of the rut, shift for ourselves even if the shifting is attended at first by hardships. It is our only salvation. Some must of necessity remain in the South; others, and a goodly portion, should scatter to the four corners of the earth; travel, new environments, all will tend to broaden the vision. We have been looking through the glasses of the white man. Let us buy a pair of our own, and instead of following, let us lead. Our faith that has been pinned for lo these many years on "the good Lord and Miss Ann," should hereafter be pinned on the good Lord and our own resources. IF YOU CAN'T KEEP STEP with the great army of progressive marchers you soon find yourself alone with those of your kind, by the wayide. This is an age of hustle and bustle, when the early bird in reality catches the worm, the ox cart to the flying machine as a means of travel is a step that our forefathers used to drive in a automobile, with its record for ordinary travel of from thirty to fifty miles and, as becoming far too slow for the modern man, especially if that particular man has financial means to gratify his whims. Not only in the matter of travel, but in every line of endeavor, speed is the one essential thing sought. That is why inventors have racked their brains to produce machines with manual labor and increase the production, less lessening the cost. Brains have to be alert and get a generous store of the former lest we ever beware wood and carriers of water. Whether the people as a whole are better off, moving as they are now at this high rate of speed, than our comparatively slow and easy ancestors, as a much mooted question. Today we are in the age of gaming in chances; we indulge in gambling on the most precious things. We are carrrying by exquisite enthusiasm and we pay the price, as vital statistics show. The price of safety was much at the cost of eternal vigilance. In our sander moments we must lay down rules for conduct when under the spell of the times. Old signals are ineffective; these rules must be constantly invented to keep pace with what we flatter ourselves in, and we face a face nothing more or less than downright recklessness, mixed with a good deal of caution. Every one who has driven an automobile will admit that is hard to handle within the safe speed limit. There seems to be an uncontrollable desire to "get ridy," and when we do that, we are taking a gambler's chance. So many accidents occur, and even recent years through sheer recklessness that from rostrom, pulpit and press, it is necessary to instill into the minds of the people the "safety first" slogan. There is a thing as being too slow—likewise too fast. Why not strike the happy medium? IF REPUBLICANS RULED THE SOLID SOUTH" would yield to a session of Republican local administration, and would enable a desirable progress. Here is a striking example of the possibilities. The Republican Party, Macon, Ga., recently, adopted a platform which contained an anti-lynching plank. The party's person, jynched, 10,000 and that the sheriff in the county where the lynching occurred agreed to pay. This is a mighty sane and practical antidote for the south's predilection for a rope and tree branch. Coming from Georgia, where Leo Frank was sacrificed to the pine tree, he is particularly eloquent of a convalescing point of view. It is too bad for Georgia's salute to anti-Republican. It is worthy of note that wherever Republicanism predominate the government is found. There is as much difference between the rank and file of Republican party is founded. The American party believes that predominate as there is between night and day. The Republican party is founded a principle, which is not sacrificed for graft and when in power the country prosperes. The American party believes to the victor belongs the spoils, and like hungry wolves they gravel and until the treasury is depleted and until they have almost wrecked the country. The great man is ignorant also they would not be Democrats, and their past record has proved that they would not loyal citizens. So we repeat, the Republican party is the ship, all else the sea. THERE WAS A TIME when the Jews tried to hide their identity—not so any more. Resolutions advocating the establishment of a permanent American Jewish congress at Washington, and demanding that Jewish rights be guaranteed in power, the country war, were adopted at a meeting in Boston, Mass, recently with 300 delegates, representing nearly all of the seventy-eight branches in the United States and Canada, were present. How long will it be before we can DEMAND anything with any assurance of getting it? Echo answers, "how long?" THECALIFORNIAIMMIGRATIONCOMMISSIONER was upheld by the San Francisco-federal district court in refusing admission to country of Hindus, on the ground that there was no demand for their labor. To a step farther and refuse about nine-tenths of all the foreigners who find their way into pur land, and give the unhyphenated American a chance to make an honest dollar. THEOLDEST "MAMMY" in the United States is still, the last one reached the ripe old age, according to reports, of 110. With the younger generation is going, sixty years looks like a century.

With his bravery and paven, With cruelty, sorrow and scorn. And only up here in the Northland, Can his soul, white as yours, be re-born. He has carried your burdens down yon- For years, with such scant recompense, That now we'd rebuke our white brothers And speak in the black man's defense. Take up the black man's burden, With a smile and a kind cheer, With a generous heart for his failings. And a handshake that's faith and sincere. For only through faith in his victory Can pride of success be insured. And with a mature future, Will be those sturdy hearts that endured. The world values one in proportion, As one values himself and his deeds, So throw out your chests; keep on going; And attain the end, all your needs. —Contributed to The Chicago Defender by Edna Perry Booth (white), 816 Prospect Place, Brooklyn, N. Y. UNCLE JOSH SAYS I've noticed when a fellow dies, His friends from far and near, All gather round and say nice things Of him (but the dead don't hear). They bring him flowers made up in wreaths Which sometimes fill a room, But the dead don't even get a smell Of the fragrance they exhume. I've seen folks there that haven't spoke To him in months or years, But now they congregate and mourn, Their eyes are dimmed with tears— They all forget the bitter words They spoke out yesterday, And now they heard a multitude Of compliments to pay. When you and I cash in our checks, They'll do the same, I guess, But just as far as I'm concerned it won't be by request. So if it's all the same to you, Just bring to me instead The flowers while I'm living, Use the hammer when I'm dead. Booker T. Washington's death on Nov. 14 astounded the world. Chicago Defender issued an extra Sunday morning announcing the death of Dr. Washington to the world 24 hours ahead of the daily press of the country. Elison Scott in order to prevent a public scandal Martial law proclaimed in Hayt. Pantages beat American Giants with Williams in the box. Morehouse and Tuskegee game ended 6 to 6.

WILBERFORCE WILLIAMS awful disease which we call cerebral hemorrhage, or apoplexy. SVEHILIS—if a young man allows his system to become contaminated by "damaged goods" and follow out systematically the scientific line of treatment, he is doomed to end his life in some of the various forms of this awful "disease"—apoplexy caused by "damaged goods". This tumor may produce paralysis of one side of the body, or it may cause inflammation, degeneration and rupture of a blood vessel. The young man or young woman who is contaminated with "damaged goods" should not rest day nor night until he or she has his or her system cleaned because if he or she does not get rid of the disease she is liable to have apoplexy at the period of life in which the greatest responsibilities devolve upon him, he or she is beautiful, wise, children, the large caretaker, caregivers of a business life—at that per "damaged goods" will strike him do like an ox being slaughtered for mark and end what might have been otherwise a most successful and brilliant career. What we state here are no pipe dreams nor images of the imagination, these things are things we see in our midst. Two brilliant women in the early fifties and of our acquaintance were struck down with apoplexy and died in the early fifties, never be gaining consciousness, never saying or word to their beloved ones. What to do in Apoplexy We believe that it would be better to advise you what not to do in apoplexy. Do not rub salt in all of your neighbors. Do not rub salt in the hands of the sufferer. Do not give the suffering patient any alcoholic of any description. Do not bring him to consciousness, nor dash cold water into his face. Do not pour salt down his throat. Do not shut off all the air from the sufferer. Do not gather around him. Do not cry and mean, but on the contrary, do the following: Send immediately for the doctor. Put the patient to bed with his head moderately elevated, placing an ice bag to his head. He has convisions, put a spoon or something in his mouth to prevent him biting his tongue. If he can swallow, give a dose of salts or castor oil. If he cannot awail, give a large enema. Get his boyels open by all menis, and keep his head cool and his menis, and keep his hot water bottle or bag to his feet. Keep the patient well ventilated, and avoid disturbing the patient "until the doctor comes." Then he "doctor comes," he will approve, that patient you have given the patient. He must ask for help out in emergency, for the patient will get better or die in three or four days. Outside of the advice mentioned above, there is very little to be done for cerebral apoplexy. The doctor will institute treatment to remove the cause. I due to syphilis, he will treat syphilis. I due to Bright's disease. If due to Bright's disease, he will treat Bright's disease. If the cause is due to high blood pressure, he will endeavor to lower the blood pressure and clean out the bowels. However, you do do the "doctor outlined above, while waiting for the "doctor to come," because all cases of apoplexy are more or less desperate. MISS MOSELEY PRAISED Work as President of the Grace Lyceum Brings Many Compliments Miss Bertha Moseley, 6220 Sangamon street, daughter of the well known lawyer, B. F. Moseley, deserves much credit for the way she has handled and built up the Grace Lyceum; as its president she stands out as one of the foremost young women of the city. Miss Moseley is an example for many of the young women of the country, having graduated from Chicago University with the degree of Master of Arts before she was 22 years old. A conscientious, hard working, and practically a self-willed but pleasing young woman, she packed Grace-church to overflowing the Grace Lyceum's Booker T. Washington memorial Sunday. Many people have spoken highly of her work. R. B. Abbott, Editor. A young man from Richmond, Va., wanted to know how to write essays for the Chicago Defender, even though he had not finished his education. The advice is given for his benefit: You should finish a high school if you must work, and through, take up some trade and work, the next three years; go to college and become a power with power to write on paper. You must have a thorough, education. TWO-FLATS Never before were you offered two-apartment houses for such little money. You can buy these flats for the price of an ordinary house and yet they are complete, separate apartments, new sanitary, baths, etc., and ready to move into. Live in one and rent the other.

NO CASES ARE DIAGNOSED AND NO PRESCRIPTIONS GIVEN IN THESE WEEKLY ARTICLES APOPLEXY The Onset The disease attacks one suddenly after the various warnings mentioned in our previous article. The individual feels a sense of urgency against something, or denies that a sudden unconsciousness—with this unconsciousness may come paralysis, convulsions, coma—and the person may die within a few minutes from this attack, to be followed by subsequent attacks, with some of the following mental affections. He laughs and cries out, his ability to himself himself, his body, hisoplegia; there may be hemiplegia, partial half of the body, or there may be a aphasia or loss of power of expression by speech. Apoplexy is most likely to occur in stout feeders, people who use heavy diets; in people who indulge in alcoholics, beer, wine and cocktail drinkers. Apoplexy is a very common complication of nutrition. People with Bright's disease and disease of the blood vessels can avoid apoplexy if they will take the proper precautions. They should be fed with a high-protein diet, such as overexertion, excitement, in taking of cold baths, in overeating, in shouting or overrejoicing and they stomach and bowel constipation. The stomach and bowel inside, is just as necessary as the cleaning of the outside with soap and water. If you do not heed the warnings of nature, if you overload your stomach with bowels to become constipated, if you swallow a pill on a full stomach, or on the contrary, if you lounge around and indulge too much in the sedentary habit, if you sleep in a bed with pillows, or those things that weaken your system and that make you a ready victim to this EDITOR'S MAIL George H. Webster and the Provident Hospital Chicago, Ill., Nov. 17.—To the Editor of The Chicago Defender—Sir: In the death of George H. Webster, Chicago was not only because of his prominence, but also because of his Christian character and devotion to higher things. For many years Mr. Webster had been pardoned by the trustees of the Provident Hospital and Trustees for Colored Nurses. He not only contributed to it liberally, but was unremitting in his personal service and devotion to the institution. He visited the meetings of the trustees after the years and slackness was upon him. As Philip D. Armour's partner, he did much to interest that great business man in the hospital, and so came his large gift in the building and the possession of the fine furniture. Webster's influence, no doubt, counted in securing the gifts of men like George M. Pullman, Marshall Field and H. H. Hollsat. Nathan Freer, in memory of his brother, built the Eraser Free Home for Nurses. Provident hospital is now doing a most important service. Its doors are open and people are regard to race or color or creed. A large number of service rendered is to persons who are unable to pay. The dispensary ministers don’t charge the number of needy people. The children are cared for in the hospital is doing splendid work in the care of babies. The graduate nurses of the training school are making records in different parts of the country. The colored people are taking an increased interest in the institution. The large number of students dowment work was given by a Negro ($45,000). A large number of white patients have been treated either free or paid for by the institution. Provident hospital suffers a great loss in the death of Mr. Webster. That a man of such character and position has devoted labor to the institution gives it a claim upon the community for help. The woman's auxiliary肩 has done DUNCAN C. MILLNER, D. D. (white) SICK LIST Mr. W. W. Wallace of the W. A. Wallace Bakery, Co., is now convalescent and able to be about his duties again.
