In the near tragedy a pair of fine males were drowned.

There was not a dry eye in the place on Rev. Scott Grant's Chapel preached the funeral services. Little Myra was a member of his Sunday services. Winning personality Myra's death was a now to them. The Tragedy The tragedy is the result of "bad" boy, a gun, and a sparrow. Fred Senger, white, lives at 522 La Salle street. He attends the Sherwood school at Prince of Wales second school. Although 12 years old, he could be able to feel his mother. She thought he was innocent of some things. Fred lived in a neighborhood where boys were bad. At times they would run members of the Race on the way home from school. ordinarily mixed up with a gang of tough boys that hang out at 5555 Grove avenue. They had an air rifle, shot at birds and at the cree. That wasn't enough, however, so Fredle saved his money from selling another white bid of 14, to buy a gun. Hervel哼了一响 on Clark street. That was on Monday and on Thursday. Fred pecked away at some birds. One man drove him out the alley as it was. He had a car and he have saved had the man presence of mind enough to have taken the gun away from him. Myra was on her way to her home, 5751 Lafayette avenue, from school. It was about 12:20. Junior high. Myra was Majora Howard, 5715 Grove avenue, were with her. They heard a noise. Myra fell with a pain in her side. She, nor the other girls, did not know she was. shot. The tragedy was revealed. Myra was dressed her. In the meantime Myra's mother went for the nearest doctor. As usual the two nearest were out on calls. Finally she reached Dr. Denison, a surgeon, by phone. The surgeon leaped to a wagon. On reaching Dry creek, which stream is far out of its banks, and driving along the fill leading to the bridge, the mules became frightened at the noise made by the small waves beating against the embankment, and shied to one side, precipitating the entire outfit, mules, wagon and contents, into about thirty feet of water. Saves Drowning Men Sergeant McKenna and Plain Clothes Officers Hart and Clarke found Freed after school. He told them he had a gun and an alarm and then put it in the gunman's 5755 Grove to hide it. The police had found the gun there two hours before that. They also found some dead sparrows and a few tomato cans with holes in them. They found three white men and three members of the Raco were on the jury. They returned a verdict of accidental death caused by a fall from a gun in the fire of a friend. Freed for a moment, then broke out in a sack such as only little fellows can when their heart is broken. Mr. and Mrs. Singercrier was his father, a widower, and he was the only one of them were present, including some of the jury. Mrs. Singer went to Mr. Crawford to try to comfort him. It was sad indeed. One home shorn of a budded head, one home shorn of a father stripped of his favorite child since her mother's death, a home vacant of all its charms; then another home, parents heartbroken over the deed of their son, young lad, 12 years old, who will carry the fateful tragedy before him all his life. Morris Pepper, a Jew, was arrested Saturday at his home, 622 West Twelfth street, bedded with selling the gun that idled Myron. There's a lesson to be learned from this sorrowful tragedy and that one thing is to know what your children are doing. You know that the company they keep. Because a child is young is no reason for any parent to believe he or she cannot think. They believe they will kill you and lest you beware they will fool you. ★★★★ THE BROOKLYN CITY PRESS Brave Cingalese troops, who have done as much toward the allies' recent advances in France, stopping to get a bite to eat. This picture was taken within hearing distance of the big German guns. New York, N. Y., March 16—We are glad to announce the organization of the National Industrial League of America, with executive offices at 147 E. 125th street, New York city, with the following aims and purposes: "For the promotion, improvement and equalization of the social and economic conditions of the Negro in America, to be obtained by creating and establishing independent industries which will develop the latent faculties and talents of our people and enable him to compete on equal basis with his neighbor. This can be accomplished by first settling him on his own ground and in his own home. See the book "The Negro in his home," established and conducted with the object in view of making the settled skilled in the pursuit of trade he is working. This can be accomplished such business institutions as banks, industrial exchanges, life and fire insurance, commission in houses and commercial agencies wherein the member of the Negro receive a thorough business training." This short quotation from the preamble of the constitution of the National League of America gives in a concise form the League's mission to embrace "Negro problem." When it says that it intends to "develop the latent faculties and talents of the Negro," it means that it attempts to solve the Negro problem. This is practical work and does not conflict in any manner, shape or form with any other work, and is acting for the welfare of the Race. The Foundationference upon which the league bases its work consists in the method it applies to the solution of the problem, and that method is the personal effort of the members of the league. This means that the life, growth and development of the league is good will and efforts of the Race alone. The league has already opened the door that leads to practical industrialism by successfully bridging the chasms between the currier and the Colored people. It is required that shops for the manufacture of ladies' waists, men's shirts, men's ties and other articles in the needle trade. It is the role of the race to read response of the Race people to railwaymen, and lead the Race to dual victory—that of industrial and economic equalization. The movement has the interest of the people to do many prominent white, as well as Colored, an effort to put forward at the right time, the true spirit of industrialism. SOUTHERN PROPAGANDA INVADES NYDE PARK Whites Try to Keep Church Members From Building The Hyde Park Herald (white), an organ of the defactored Alderman Merriam and the once defeated candidate for mayor of Chicago, is up in arms because Hyde Park A. M. E. church is making an effort to build a new church in the Hyde Park district. 1652 Lake Park avenue, the best of the Race employed in the district without adequate facilities for their moral, social and religious improvement. The Rev. Wm. Griffin, passionate effort to create a higher moral atmosphere and give life and vigor in the community where they are to live, rear and educate their children. The church people purchased a piece of property at Hyde Park A. M. E. church of both Races subscribed toward the fund and outlook is very bright for a neat church to be erected. Now comes the Hyde Park Herald with its unimaginable effort to create a color question and trying to keep a people from serving God in a community where they have bought and paid for property upon, which to build their church. The people of both Races are satisfied with members of the Race doing their work, but Great Scott's, don't have a church to be instructed how to live clean moral lives; you can be out of the coffees, but not the dresses. The wives of chapels may do the work, but no day nursery can be maintained in the Hyde Park district. The Herald and Merriam, known to all Churches, are scarcely some with headlines in their new weekly journal, but the members of Hyde Park A. M. E. church are determined to have a church. Every member of the church is expected to be stantial citizens and will not stand to be kept out of a part of the city where they contribute to its success. Why should we be kept out any more than a Catholic church? The Herald has struck a "sung" by fostering such devilish idea among the fair-minded people. LITTLE GIRL A HEROINE Pulaski, II., March 16—Dorothy Davis, the 3-year-old baby of Mr. and Mrs. Logan Davis, narrowly escaped the 3-year-old wounds of this week. She was popping cotton when her dress caught fire. Her little sister, aged 9 years, put out the fire. She tried to smother the flames with her hands and then extinguished the fire. She burned on the hands and burns herself in the effort. DIES FROM INJURIES Montgomery, Ala. March 16—Ernest Franklin, 4-year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Wm.

His first contribution is on the editorial page of this issue. PRISONER GETS LAST CHANCE FOR HIS LIFE Gov. Lowden Gives Campbell's Lawyers Chance to Go to the Supreme Court Springfield, Ill., March 16—Governor Lowden gave a new lease of life to Chicken Joe Campbell Friday, when he granted a fifth reprieve to him, extending the time for the presentation of his case to the April term of the Supreme Court. F. L. Barnett appeared before the governor in behalf of the prisoner and State's Attorney Martin (white) of Jollet appeared to contest the application. The hearing involved a discussion of the entire case, after which the governor made the order for reprieve. Attorneys Renew Efforts Campbell's attorneys, F. L. Barnett and A. B. Cowling, have begun renewed efforts to obtain money necessary to perfect the appeal. The trial the transcript of the evidence has been almost completed, but there remains the expense of the clerk's fee and the amount to about $800. Besides that the costs in the Supreme Court and the cost of printing the abstracts, brief and the case will require in the neighborhood of $800 that the costs will be necessary to raise at least $1,000 to give Campbell the benefit which he must have in order to save his life. In the case by reason of the fact that is the last application that will be made for reprieve. Efforts will be made by citizens outside of Chicago as well as the City to help raise the defense fund. Prisoner Without Funds Campbell has no money, but the expenses thus far have been met by public subscription, which have amounted to $10,000. The court made generous response at the time of the trial, has not been called upon to make any contribution since the trial, but will no doubt respond to the call soon to be made. The court brought before the Supreme Court, that is necessary to perfect the appeal. The attorneys for Campbell have unbounded faith in the success of their appeal, and the contents brought before the Supreme Court, that cases have been decided since Campbell was convicted which clearly violated the contents they made against the Supreme Court, correctly stated to the court at the trial and the same contentions which will be made in the Supreme Court will result in no fear of the result of the appeal to the Supreme Court—they only ask friends of humanity to help fulfill the funds which will give their client a chance to stand in the Supreme tribunal of the state. Campbell is not asking for mercy, he is asking-only for justice and it is to be hoped that generous people will see to it that he is not denied the right of justice. He is in good spirits and expresses himself up for the new represe and he has unbounded faith in the favorable result when his case is finally heard. A move- Color Line Bobs Up in High School Again --- The color line has again bobbled up at the Wendell Phillips High school. This time it is in the military training department. However, before we go any further we will state that a Defender re-ported on Mr. Spencer R. Smith (white), principal of the school, and was informed that he would not nor has ever sanctioned such a move. Secret. George Kelsey (white) from the regular army, who was sent there to form a company, suggested to the principal of forming a separate company or members of the Race. Principal Smith at once told him that the Colored boys" were in the orchestra and in the band, played on the school teams, and that if the officer wanted to separate them he would have to take it to the board of education. Boys Won't Wear Buttons Surpriseingly on Tuesday morning the Chicago Tribune and the Chicago Herald EXTRA DRUNKEN BOY KILLS MOTHER AND SELF South Boston, Va., March 16.—A tragedy of shocking proportion occurred last week not far from this city. Whisky drinking was at the bottom of the whole affair. It was out on the Omega road. He was in the middle of a drink, was in the 'mist of' selling whisky, the men in the community. He was arrested and because his mother refused to bail him out of jail, he decided to kill her and did so. He shot his brother and in doing so, in a few minutes, he then threw himself at his wife and she decided to move to safer surroundings. He then turned the gun upon himself and ended his own life. Cheyenne, Wyo., Marion 16—The largest invasion by members of the Race in the history of Wyoming will take place in the spring of 2015, and many begin work on double-tucking portions of the main line of the Union Pacific railroad, under a recently granted contract during the present spring. It will be placed in the company been placed by the company, and these will be brought to Wyoming as soon there is work for them to do. The larvae will be used to feed the larvae used on Sherman hill, between Cheyenne and Laramie, where the 1,700-foot Sherman tunnel is to be widened sufficiently to allow the larvae to be reported that the Y. M. C. A.'s will establish camps where the laborers will be stationed. This will keep away the larvae from grade school education, who always wants to establish a Jim Crow school. "SOME MORE" EXCITEMENT SOME MORE EXCITEMENT Philadelphia, Pa., March 16—Slim Jim, a well known athlete of this city, felt the pressure when he came to the conclusion he would take a bath. Going up to the fourth floor of the building where he works on Market street, near Twelfth, he opened the window and crawled out on the ledge to the backyard. He snaked a snake. With his hands in his pockets he soon fell asleep. His head commenced to sway backward and forward in the manner of sleeping men, often with his hands in the air. People seeing him from below soaked him to congregate so rapidly that street car traffic soon became congested. This soon attracted the attention of the traffic policemen, when one of them ascended the stairs and slept. Afraid to awake him suddenly he pulled him in from his dangerous position. The crowd then slowly dispersed. BABY DIES; LIVES; DIES AGAIN A baby was born of Mrs. Leona Douglass, 2744 State street. After twenty-four hours the baby was pronounced dead. The baby was cremated. Lewis said that life was extinct. The body was taken to the morgue. Signs of life became apparent three hours later. Mrs. Douglass went to the County hospital. The next day another trip was made to the morgue. 32 CAUGHT IN RAID came out with a story conspicuously displayed saying that the boys of the Race formed. The Defenders separate companies formed. The Defenders we could not see how it was possible in this part of the country that our boys were asking Jim Crowson and we did. 3517 State Street, located Edward Bostock 3547 Dearborn street, two students who had called a meeting before school after seeing the infamous article in the daily newspaper, the school was against the segregation menbers of the Race signed papers to light it. Young Mr. Bostock waited on Principal Smith and was told the principal's report that the members of the Race removed their buttons were insignia of the high school volunteers. Usually there are some shackers in every movement of this kind. Waiting for the police to remove these stuck with the Race are Maurice Heywood, Thomas Witts, Jack Talbert, Nap Smith, Adolph Sims Jr, LeRoy Soren Jr, James Coxen, Peterton and Horace Kelly. There are other whose names cannot be learned. There are two Japanese in the companies, plenty of Jews and Irish. Sergt Kaiser at first intended to hold an examination, but when he kept that some of our students, and for examination he appointed temporary officers, naming all whites and Jews. The action of this man has aroused the Race in this neighborhood and it only brings, he said, the Chicago Defender that our Race needs in the school hour. We are glad that Mr. Smith would take no hand in the matter.

On Sunday we will have Richard Gordon, Love Thief, and others. Sandy for the kiddies at the Sunday matinee, as usual. THE MONOGRAM FIDDLER & SHELTON On Monday night the famous big-time team of Fiddler & Shelton will open a week's engagement at the Grand. This fine act at a local playhouse is a long time, as they have accepted contracts covering the entire west and will leave immediately after this engagement. This is one of the few standard acts that we have seen in the past, and the team shows the success is the same. The management of the Grand is to be complimented for giving their patrons the opportunity of seeing the best in vaudeville and the best in theater doing so. Ruby Shelton is considered one of the Race's best musicians and the ability of Harry Fiddler as a character artist is too well known to need a refresher. The second to none and for the entire twelve years through which they have been before the public together they have headlined all over every good "time" in the history of the show, will no doubt be out in forces during the week to bid the boys bon voyage. C. H. DOUGLASS Macon, Ga., March 16.—C. H. Douglass, well known as the Macon theater man and one of the wealthiest and most thrifty of the city's men, completed a list of the principal towns of Florida. He was the principal of Woody on the latter's private car. Mr. Worthy is the owner of the Florida Blossom; Eph Williams of the Silas Green Minstrel Co. was also on the trip. Mr. Douglass stopped for a week at Jacksonville with his old friend, Billy.

He says that the present season has been his best, and he truly looks it. Jerome & Lewis are in town and will accept a few local dates before leaving for the east. The act is a crackerjack and is bound to attract attention in the near future. Dave Peyton, leader of the Grand orchestra, had a great time during his two idle weeks during the stay of "The Man." He carried its own leader. He spent nine days off looking into Maurice Rothschild's and The Hub windows. Competition is making it real lively around the Forty-seventh street corner. Born in Chicago, heaters are using vaudeville of the platter, and it seems to be a 50-40 proposition. The peculiar part of the whole thing is that both theaters are using a good class of acts, while neither one was built for anything but pictures. There will be many headline attractions, future, and among them will be a pg- turn to Chicago of petite Anita Bush, who was seen here last year. Miss Bush is recognized as the best of the Race's dramatic performers, and it is said to touch with her a cast of efficient artists. White & Norris, the hot tamale men, are just naturally cleaning up on the Sun time. They are under the personal direction of Charley Van of the booking office, who has been instrumental in getting many of the boys started. Billy Cumby, who bills as "the Lodge Member," is going great on the Fisher time, and is gradually working his way into the business. That Portland is good enough for him, but it is hard to see how he will be able to make it stick there, as the whole state of Washington is bone-dar. The Musical Miller Family are playing many local engagements and are considered one of the best attractions booking this class of time. Their line is put on and there isn't a second, from curtain, that doesn't bring something. Green & Pugh, who are covering a long tour for the W. V. M. A., are at last headed for the east; they have been headlined on all bills and have sent in press reports. Pugh says in a letter that press reports sold in the west are right up to the minute. He knows what I mean. Just as the Big Norse is going to press a letter hit the old roll top desk from the clongated producer, Irvin C. Miller; the company is called Phla, and at the same time is rehearsing a big company for the road, which will travel under the name of Broadway Rastus. Among the cast he has Dink Stewart, Thomas & McDonald, Esther Bigeou, Carrie Nugent, Lulu Whidby and he doesn't mention what grade of presence in the production of the latter. The big thing opens April 16 and will make a bid for some Ofay time. NATURALLY LIKES IT Bright and early Monday morning the following letter hit the old roll top desk, and along with the reading of the letter I was impressed on my shirt, and my chest expanded until I looked like a blower pigeon: Helena, Ark., March 10, 1917. Dear Friend Tony: I have just spent a most enjoyable day with my cogo Defender. As it is quiet and uninteresting down here I devoured the contents of the World's Greatest just the same as a hodge would slop (excuse me by a lady friend) and I am by a lady friend and it has afforded me the greatest amount of pleasure that I have enjoyed during my stay here of two weeks, as I am looking after my sister who has been on the past month, and I am glad to say he is improving. I expect to go to Hot Springs and take a few of the baths; I found the take water too wet for the baths, and I will go to the Springs I will go on to Memphis to visit the kids. With best wishes to Mr. Abbott, Young and yourself, as well as to my other friends, I am yours. AMD D. WILLIAMSON JR.

Its audience thrills, and this it certainly accomplishes, means of pretty nearly every trick ever used in directing a film; by a number of new photographic efforts, and a foundation on the most expensive series of spectacular scenes ever put into a modern play; and in today—not a costume play—and it holds sympathy throughout for the romantic lovers who are its basis. The love of a little circus girl for a young prince—the story of their courtship and plans to elope—are simply and forcefully told. For the exception for the wonderfully elaborate circus one would not anticipate the magnificence of the reels to follow. The story works up gradually, and while the fight between the heroine and the crazed chimpanzee, for the life of a baby boy, is itself enough to give the heroine the critics call a "punch." It simply works up to the fire scenes in a burning circus, hiding, which cost in themselves make, and had a toll of human lives, as well as those of the lions, which, through an accident, were burned to death in which got far beyond the control of the stage, contributed markedable way in which actors, directors and camera men stuck to their posts and finished the film, in the face of empathy, to the strikingly measuredly This great picture has created the greatest sensation wherever it has been shown and had an exceptionally powerful effect at the ASale theater at high prices.

ASLEEP AT THE SWITCH LURE IN BUSINESS comes as a rule from two causes, inexperience, embruces ignorance of the line in which one embarks, and from lack of client capital. It looks easy to the uninitiated to run a grocery, market, shoe store, or any of the dozen and one kinds of business found along our marts of trade. Butter experience has taught the stenographer that he cannot run a jewelry store, the railroad porter that he cannot successfully run a gent's furnishing store that he gaining some experience, and so all along the line, preparedness is keynotes. Business is a new thing to most of us. The other fellows have had a few centuries start and figured out all the different angles so their success means less by less. Their failure less justifiable than our failure. Thrust as we were some fifty years ago on our own business, our progress has been termed by our friends—"marvelous," yet we have not shown a fraction of the force so long dormant in our people. Rome was not built until many grow impatient at the seeming lack of progress made by the other infirm. Perhaps it is just as well that impatience is evidenced; it helps to stimulate, helps to clear away the stumbling blocks, helps to build up own character. He encourages to find each year a steady increase in the number of business places operated by our people. Their patronage in most instances has not been limited to a dollar a dollar worth for a dollar every day, and they don't stop to inquire as back to them. Unfortunately a certain class of would-be merchants attempt to do business on a sympathetic plan—the expect they Colored person to trade with them. They are Colored—the quality or quantity of the goods offered is of minor importance, though the price is higher than perhaps asked by their white competitor. All things being equal, it is our duty to show a preference for the man who is struggling to rise. That clannish spirit is what made the Jews the power they are in the world today. But we are not helping our brother in the final analysis when we business methods and make him unable to compete with what he sells his goods and organize, organized, or seized, captured by concentrated common sense. First of all, have a satisfied customer means more in actual dollars and cents than a little additional profit on the first line. Honesty, persistence and enthusiasm are the three essential ingredients which make proper proportion and constantly stirred will result in that delightful conception that is tasted is never forgotten—namely—SUCCESS. The average man today earns "two dollars per" from his neck down. If he earns more than $2 per day he do to the quality of gray matter under his hat. We are fast emerging from the clash, and that is only another way of saying we are commencing to use our skills. And that is the way it is done, that counts, that world is practically new to us, but let me tell you, that skill, determination, with grit and a world of stick-to-it-like spirit, is well-lightened country on the globe, we must not be agile at the UR PART IN THE EXODUS NORTHERN CITY led their uda of a limited from two in and the prospects others, whether the w of unrest among reason is not found often and oppressed people their manhood with masses offered by our prizes.

Never was so unrest among even the "dyd in the wool" southerners as in the city in the desire for better wages or over the country. Something far greater than up a oppressed people—LIBERTY—let least liberty in a measure. Self manhood with the ballot. The privilege of giving their services offered by our public schools.Equal protection in the courts. all of the time the clergies accord to other American citizens. This is the real reason why they are leavening. If all of their dream does not come true, enough will come to pass to justify their actions. The south has constantly complained of the load they are carrying, and compaised so long and fond that the north have to sympathize with them. Their workmen come and keep the fire in the house. He was the stone around the white man's neck that kept him and his section of the country years behind the times. The same laws could not be meted out to white and black pilots they were not cruel and stringent for the latter. When mob law they were not cruel and cry made by the people in either section of the country. "The south knows she is accepted." "You never miss the water till the well runs dry," is applicable in this real instance. The south thought they had a problem with the Negro, but their real problem was come when the Negro has gone, for there is no southern industry and the land is not used for their homes for newer and greener fields. It is the tollers, the men who till the crops, operate the coal mines, and the men who care for the cotton and sugar cane crops, the men who have families and mean something to a community. That is why those workmen have lived in the north have a problem. That problem is the caring for the stranger within us. The Negro is seen stalking work assured need a guiding hand not only for their own sake, but for the sake of the others into whose community they come. It is easy to mistake privilege for a loss, so we are our brother's keeper, whether we like it or not. In it we lose. If results are less experienced, especially when one misste weakens our chance for climbing. With the bread field that the church covers it can, perhaps, do the most effective work in fitting the newcomers into the niche they are to occupy in their new field. We must be careful and should not be expected, to carry the burden alone; every club, lodge society and individual must put their shoulder to the wheel and bring order out of chaos. AN EXCHANGE commenting on our story about the daring feat performed by Jack Johnson, queries: "Why not dispense with the American navy and just Jack? That's such an easy one we turned it over to our war correspondent to answer, who remembered, as we paused a moment at his desk, "That reminds me of the woman who went down to a department store to buy a scrap book and the saleslady gave her the life of J. J." Next? THE WAR DEPARTMENT is still advertising for good men. Here is an opportunity our bright young men are overlooking. Think of "seeing America first," and then—who knows? THE PRESIDENT WILSON thinks of some congressmen if put on paper would be to warm it would never be accepted by the postal authorities as first-class matter.

Dr. Williams the diseases that are accompanied at some time during their course with skin rash and often with some throat infection and high fever: They are rarely treated with antibiotics. Many smallpox and chickpox. These are the diseases that the doctors and those in charge of the sick patient must report to the department. Many people, especially those who have recently come to Chicago—namely, our foreigners from the old country and Colored people from their old country—have been affected, and those who come in close contact with having the above mentioned diseases reported, and signs placed upon their homes, and to the quarantining of their families, affected, and those who are eased one.

It is for the protection of those who come in close contact with these who are not exposed, that quarantion should be instituted. Human nature is selfish and cares only for itself.
