Cleveland, Ohio, Feb. 2.—When the news of the announcement of the Carnegie Hero Fund in Pittsburgh on Jan. 24 reached here that four white men were awarded silver hero medals and that Garrett A. Morgan, the man who did the real work of a hero in the great tunnel disaster on July 24 of last year had been overlooked, the better thinking element of both races this city became enraged. Movement is the tool to retreat against the action of the Carnegie commission. Story of the Rescue The explosion occurred about 10 o'clock on the night of the 24th. Three rescue parties had entered the tunnel, and the firefighters used the inventory of a helmet designed for the purpose of protecting persons in saving the lives of those who are victims of gas fires and smoke, was called from homes and was escorted by the 25th, having received calls from the marine office, the city detective office and the police officer, John Chatham. All these calls came within five minutes. Morgan did not stop his minions shirt and shoes, having supplied himself with a number of helmets, and he proceeded to a hurry to the pier where the fire aug George W. Wallace was walking to take him to the crub, teaching the tunnel, he was told that here were a number of men in it that very in anger of losing their lives, faying the death of them with another, offensils, firemen, police and so savers. All were afraid to make an attempt to escape the unfortunate victims, apparently of account of the failure of those who had previously failed to return. Mr. Morgan called for volunteers to tote the coffin and firemen, including the life savers, failed to respond. Frank Morgan, his brother, who had come to the scene with him; Thomas Clancy of this city; Thomas McCoy of this city; to be given the hero medal, and Thomas Castleford, another hite man of Rummerfeld, Pa., volunteered. After the slump in the city, the medal bid them all goodbye, the shaft was then lowered. They had one in a short distance when they stupped over the body of a dead man. white doctors, who feared Dr. Gles knew more than they did, started the works. Mrs. Bowen, a prominent white club woman, was asked by one of the patients about the matter. She frankly told the doctor. Dr. Gles was 'right' in demanding his rights. That a "colored" physician had as much right there as a white one. The National Association of Advancement of Colored People are taking care of the patients. Judge W. O. Brown and Judge McLurdy (white) and Dr. Charles Bentley have interested themselves in the case in behalf of the association. Dr. Giles is the son of Lawyer and Mrs. Giles of Brooklyn, N. Y. The Defender is glad to know that he has the manhood to stand for his rights as an American citizen and not take anything less. While at Provident he was regarded as one of the most promising physicians in the city. COOK'S WIFE, TRUNK AND $100 ALL ARE MISSING CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE Tuson, Ala., Feb. 2—Ed F.

Saves Superintendent's Life Saves Superintendent's Life He reached the lifeless body of Superintendent Van Dusen and called the rest of the body was placed on a truck and carried to the It was found that he was alive and happened to be the stepfather of Clancy, one of the rescue party. Clancy left with his stepfather while the rest of the body and their white companion were again taken. This second trip they brought up four bodies, only one being alive, the others having died from the poisonous gas tunes. Upon seeing Morgan come the second time the police and firemen aboard the plane putting on helmets, they made a general request to save those remaining in the tunnel that any hope of life existed in. But Morgan and his partners were taken into the tunnel and return alive. These people failed before him. He saved the life of Van Dusen by objecting to the police using the pulmotor. Mayor Davis sustained him in this and the method was carried. Van Dusen was brought to life by the means of artificial respiration. Morgan saved other lives in the same manner. Where the Color Line Was Drawn Now Cleveland, and in, fact, all Ohio, is at loss to understand the real meaning of the Carreglia commission in giving Glance a medal and passing up Morgan. It was no doubt until Morgan had come back with his ghastly load, twice the police and firemen were willing to sacrifice their lives. To show the real danger of the situation, Mayor David hid his good-bye, it looked like sure death. Three police had extorted mine, but none had come out alive. The question to the commission, who in all probability will deny that there was any real intention to draw the "line," is Why was Chancy given a medal when he made one trip with Morgan, then had forsaken the party to attend to his stepfather, who was the first to be rescued? Why was Morgan when you people had the facts in a let- ter written about public utilities, Mr. Thomas S. Perrell, and the mas- Another piece of questionable work was, although Morgan was the first to go into the tunnel and come out alive, the mayor testified. Justice—oh, where art thou?

THE NEW OWL When the New Owl theater, located on State, just north of Forty-seventh street, threw open its doors to the public last Sunday, the future regulars had the largest chance to see a feature on the largest stage in theater in that section of the city. To say that it is a beautiful house is putting it mild; it is actually a dream, and fror, lobby to screen the discerning and master decorator is seen on every hand, the lobby is beautiful, and aside from it there is a spacious rotunda reaching clear across the rear of the theater, the walls of which are decorated with olls of some of the greatest movie stars. There are 1,200 of them, and the lobby which give a perfect view of the screen, a $16,000 Kimball pipe organ, built in especially, and a fine orchestra, under the leadership of Clarence M. Jones, the leader of the entertainment theater you will notice that all employ the will notice that the Race, with one exception, and that the operator is a member of local 110, which means that one of our boys is responsible for the proper show. This all will mean the continued success this theater, and the environments call for a first-class attendance, as we have all that we can ask for in the way of representation, and the management has used us more than we have ever had in the way of pictorial entertainment.

Sutcliffe, No. 100, Grand Central, on Feb 19. They will see here at the Monogram the week of March 19. OWL THEATRE STATE, NEAR 47TH STREET FINEST EQUIPPED THEATER OUTSIDE THE LOOP 1200 ROOMY SEATS The limit of the marvelous. Such, in brief, is my estimate of "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea," the cinemasterpiece, which comes to the States Theater for a three-day run beginning on Friday, Feb. 2, and continuing Saturday and Sunday, Feb. 3 and 4, with a big special show on Saturday morning at 10:30 for the children, at a reduced price. Jules Verno was the possessor of one of the most amazing imaginations ever known, and but little inferior to the imagination of the castigushed Frenchman is that of M. Marquis de Verno, from Verne's famous novel, produced the wonderful combination of pictures which constitute the feature. The eight reels are full of such thrills as are to be found nowhere else. I say this deliberately. There is no end to them. They are as thick as leaves in a sum of snow. They are thrills that affect the nerves, mainly and thrills that reach and electrify the mind. It is the latter sort of excitement that abounds in "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" — the execlente man who thinks and sees into things and wonders at the miracles he runs across. Aside from the scientific interest of the picture there is about it a human interest centering about Capt. Nemo and his crew. The crew is Lieut. Bond of the navy. The full story of how Capt. Nemo came to leave his princely home in the orient to become the commander of the terrible undersea craft is not to be told here. The cold type cannot do it justice. It has to be properly appreciated itself. SELECTED PHOTO/PLAYS CHANGED DALY CONTINUOUS 2:45 P.M. TO NIDNIGHT Speaking of THRILLS, those who have seen the picture can never forget the one that came to them in the sinking of Denver's yacht by the Nautilus-Denver, the scoundrel, whose violation of the code of honor transformed the courteous and kind-hearted East Indian prince into the man who sank the Sea. This same captain is seen in many adventures throughout the play—adventures which will live forever in the memories of those who see this wonder-play. His rescue of a pearl-diver, who becomes ensnared in the tentacles of a giant Octopus, is one of the big scenes in this great spectacle. Fishes live in the native waters, while men walk upon the ocean's bed and engage in combat with the tigers of the deep. DOUGLASS FAIRBANKS in AMERICAN ARISTOCRACY AND LATEST KEYSTONE COMEDY When you see this epoch-making drama you will have seen the most daring, the most sensational and the most revolutionary achievement in cinema history; you will see Jules Verne's monster that terrorized the seven seas; you will see the giant Cinepix Nemo, who followed the path of vessels 20,000 leagues on his voyage of vengeance; you will see the torpedo fire and photographed under the ocean while speeding on its deadly mission, and then see a full-rigged ship blown to atoms. Through the magic window of the submarine you will see all the amazing deep waters and deep hunters descend to the floor of the ocean eating sharks. There is a terrifying combat fathoms deep between Capt. Nemo, and a giant octopus, crushing a man in its monster and slimy arms, positively the most thrilling spectacle over photographed. Scenes from under the ocean, on the earth and in the sky on the ocean and in the sea only submarine drama truly the most amazing, wonderful picture of all time. An amused orchestra will furnish special music during this engagement.

BALL PLAYER SICK ALONZA WHITE HERE Columbus, Ohio, Feb. 2—Surmounting partisan refereeing the Ninth Street Y. A. quintet broke Columbus hearts when he was defeated by the legians, last Friday night, by the scores of 20-20. The Invincibles played with a dazzling dazz and vigor they have shown. They were forced to bow down before the terrific onault dushed up by the victors. His defeat causes the Collegians to relish the victory, the state championship, and those laurels repose on the shoulders of the Queen City quintet, who will defend and acquire title against all aspirants. The game, rough to the extreme, was crowded with hair-raising moments, and the crowd hold its breath time and time again. They all around the rim of the basket only come out, while in the second half, huffy passing by the Invincibles would hold them spell-bound. Simon Wilson and Brown were a power on the offense, while "Hero" Penn played a stellar game, and again and again made his wonderful guarding, Hull and Mason, the crack forwards, were always present when it came time for a long game. He was in the college boys' hearts by his team-like rustles from one end to the other. Streets, who was figured to star in the game, was unable to score a point during the game at the time. Shannon Love played credibly and Tyler, as usual, got away with one of his long shots. Howard guarded in his same position, but he could not be all over the floor. Struggleg, the Collegians were forced to succumb to the inevitable and accuse M. C. to the mistake they were whipped by a superior team, the best they have met in years. Score: CINCINNATI Players— M.

Welling had Johnson weary with body blows as early as the fourth round, and for the next few rounds, with nimble feet to keep him out of danger. Again in the eighth, Welling got to the body with taking punches and Johnson with taking him to the body, it looked very much as though Lee would be stopped before the end of the tenth, for Welling doubled him up with him onto the jaw to the body, and then pinned him on the jaw with heavy rights and lefts.

AN EPISTLE Eddie Gray, the famous entertainer and composer, is away down in the land with his sunshine and roses, a letter which smiles to the old man to do early on Monday, he elucidates thusly: Havana, Cuba, Jan. 25.—Dear Friend Tony: No doubt you will be surprised from me. Give my best regards to me, roll on. The word of warning to all the Races' music and song writers: Beware of Jerome, Remmick & Co., in submitting manuscripts. I saw Tony Jackson's "Pretreat" over here and the dance arrangement, over here and the dance arrangement, entirely missing from the copy, no one's name appearing but Van Alstyne & Mose Gomery. I make this statement without fear of contradiction; the only difference is that the fair chance is the McKinley give us, and possibly Will Roszler. You can see what a tough game one of our people is up against in the song writing game. It keeps me figuring how to beat the New Yorkers, very hot. I thought the Chicago girls had him, but the girls here are dreams. Tell the gang that all I is to fiddle on a new job every day. This is such a glorification. Tell Leon Diggs that I am still playing the field, and this free lance life is sure a merry one. John Henry, better known as Short Dog, sends his regards to the bunch and says hello to you. Hoping you will join us, you business and that is well with you, I am, Yours truly. EDDIE GRAY. P. S.—Am sending you a clipping from a daily paper, and this is what they think: of me. THE CLIPPING THE TROOPER The demand for "The Realization" and "The Trooper of Troop K," the two releases of the Lincoln Motion Picture Company, has grown to such an extent that it is now the only company "somewhere in America" every day, and the company is adding new prints as fast they can possibly be produced. Never in the history of the picture game has a movie produced by and with members of the company been a turn engagement of longer duration than the movies have been filled and always with the same great success. It is a common thing to see these plays booked for a solid week and theaters which have always relied on the patrons having been longer than two days have fallen in line and have been convinced that these are the kind of productions that our people want to see, something far away from theaters which have just gusted the patrons of theaters which try everything handed them along this line. The third release is now on its way, and it is claimed that it will be even greater than the first two. If this the Lincoln will truly have to "go some." AL WOHLMAN Among the single-handed entertainers in vaudeville there is no more popular name than of Al Wohman, the famous King of Ragtime. There has never been an male single booked into the show, and he will still all next week in a brand-new repertoire, that has been assured the glad hand of welcome which is sure to be extended to this really great artist at this engagement. When last seen here he was booked in a show, but so popular that efforts were to bid for the full week. He had been booked elsewhere, however, and even since the patrons have had a weather eye open for Al's return. Well, here he comes, and fresh from a long, and triumphal, tour of the city, of which he has been classed as the headliner. He is bringing with him a bunch of new topical songs—songs that not only are bound to please, but which are the results of the efforts of some of the best composers among our Race. Al Wohman is bound to wake things up here, beginning Monday, and will sure demonstrate why it is claimed that he has stars like Gene Greene et al tied to a post.

The President put his best thoughts in a local cannot fail to see many good jobs behind it all. He is not alone in every.

I jump from an address the meat of who the people of all lands and apply the actually affects ten million loyal Americans it seem quite consistent to wash some soiled. I believe that not by actions, but by actions what he preaches, but does he bring his voice in protest of mob violence to uphold the Fourteenth and Constitution of these United States? We governed have given their consent to our point of view, isn't it a case when it comes to telling other natives of our affairs, we stand pre-eminent and keeping our own house in order, we haven't the time or the inclination civilized country would they tolerate fishishment, deserved or otherwise, by any have the audacity to enter a court up a prisoner under threats of beirnment.

He is not alone in his desire to end truille. Every real thinking person is intent and soul with nim. Among other things the President said: "I am proposing governmen BY THE CONSENT OF THE GOVERNED." Perhaps it is a little far-fetched to jump from an address the meat of which is supposed to be digested by the people of all lands and apply the lofty sentiment locally, where it actually affects ten million loyal American citizens, but somehow it doesn't seem quite consistent to wash someone else's clothes and leave your own soiled. We are led to believe that not by actions, but by talk, that our President actually practices what he preaches, but does he? Has anyone ever heard of him raising his voice in protest of mob violence? Has any effective effort been made to uphold the Fourteenth and Fifteenth Amendments to the Constitution of these United States? What proportion of the ten million governed have given their consent to the way they are governed? From our point of view, isn't it a case of taxation without representation? When it comes to telling other nations what to do and how to run their private affairs, we stand pre-eminent. As to minding our own business and keeping our own house in order, why, that is a horse color—we haven't the time or the inclination to do that. Other civilized country would they tolerate for an instant the out of punishment, deserved or otherwise, by a mob. In no other would they have the audacity to enter a courtroom and demand to give up a prisoner under threats of being himself lynched, the punishment.

While it might leave his brains be broken, I will withdraw support from a class of ignorant men wearing the cloth, it is the thing that we must do. Ignorance begets ignorance, and many of these little men make sure and simple. Men who live on the sweat of their neighbors brow are simply not given a pick and shovel and put them to honest labor? We have every reason to believe that the Lord calls one of his children to do a certain task. He prepares him or the task. And let it be remembered that many are called, but few are chosen.

"MAMMY" To the many readers of the Defender and especially to the young men and women, we want you to know and feel that the paper or person or persons who the paper or person or persons who you one of your invest. "Mammy" offers you one of the invest. Any living mortal can offer another, and it should be resented even if it should cost one their life. "Mammy" in slavery time means the domestic affinity of the master, for relation to him was the same as his wife; the wife the queens on his plantation, the only difference is the mammy waited on his wife and nursed her (the wife's) child along with the child that the "mammy" bore for her master, Mrs. Jackson, the woman in the limelight with the Marjorie Delbridge case) is not a mammy, and avers that she has borne a (white) child for her master or any man in her life. The mamym is still in use at the south today, but in a different form. The southern white gentleman uses the "mamym" to lure innocent Race girls to take some judge or business man, where the judge or girl with Mr. So and So, anyone of them a "law" in themselves and can pull the law to suit their fancy, thereby keeping the Race man at awe and swarting the wheels of justice. We want every mother, sister, father, brother and Race man to discourage the use of "mamym," "women's law," from this day on and boycott any paper or magazine that uses these words.

We have seven hundred patients taking the in the new city sanitarium. Go south or go west may assist in cure, but it is not necessary to a complete cure unless you have plenty of money—if you are able to spend on yourself for nursing, food, housing and medical care from $75 to $100 per month, there is no objection to your going to Arizona, New Mexico, California or North Carolina. But very few of the patients need new care in an expensive cure; and on the other hand, it is not necessary. The taxpayers of Chicago are spending nearly one million dollars yearly for the prevention and cure of tuberculosis among conditions with which you must comply in order to avail yourself of an early and speedy cure. The conditions with which you must comply are certain duties devolving upon you and if you neglect or in performing these duties, you postpone your cure and often destroy your life. Your Duty It is your duty to go to your family physician or to one of the city tuberculosis dispensaries and insist on an early and complete examination in order to determine the condition of your lungs. Read and note the following symptoms carefully: 1986. Work-out feeling. That troublesome and prolonged cough. Disturbed stomach or indigestion. 'Afternoon fever, night sweats, shortness of breath. Bleeding from the lungs, stopping of menstruation. Nervousness, pain in shoulder, pain in sore or pleurisy. Disturbed sleep, loss of sense of smell. Any three or any one of the above symptoms is an indication that there is something wrong with you and that it requires medical attention.
