On that day the voters in the Second Ward will be called upon to determine whether or not they desire to continue Race representation in the city where you are for a moment that the entro Race us a unit is intensely desirous of continuing the possession of boo. Danger, however, hurks, and it consists wholly in overcoming inactivity. OVER 1910 in many quarters, where the Race principally resides in the Second Ward, the impaction is pronounced that our candidate, Louis B. Anderson, is without any serious opposition and will be elected without any effort. It is on account of this sudden spread feeling that creates the danger. If this idea gains sufficient headway and the voters of our Race, relying upon it, and refrain from going to the polls on next Tuesday, they may awaken on Wednesday morning to find the only candidate of our people on the ticket defeated. The Chicago Defender has AGED MAN IS BURNED TO DEATH BY WHITES THE Chicago Defender WORLD'S GREATEST WEEKLY SATURDAY CHICAGO MARCH 31, 1917 D WARD TO ERSON TUESDAY Put Him in City Hall ming Majority made some quiet investigations and our reporters have found that not only is it true that our people have been killed in the attack, but the forthcoming aldermanic election, but that the white people are taking advantage of the situation and are quietly campaigning in the interest of the white people to nominate with a hope that they may slip their man in while our people are sleeping on their rights. In the extreme western activity among the white people was conspicuously noticeable. "We must not under any circumstances permit the burning shame to be charged they people with through inactivity they people with their defeated," said a prominent Race leader to a Defender reporter. "We have in the person of Louis B. Anderson one candidate who has most, must, candidates the Republican party has nated for the city council, not only in the Second Ward, but any other ward. His special training in the public service, and his most, must, candidates people should and would be prepared to avail themselves of. Every man and woman of our Race in the Second Ward who are registered and qualified to vote must be registered and qualified to cast their vote for this splendid type of a Race leader on next Tuesday." If the Race voters will do their duty and come out, each and every man and woman, on election day, Louis B. Anchorage, the candidate or alderman of the Second Ward, will be elected because the largest majority ever recorded for an alderman in this political subdivision. The normal Republican majority in this ward ranges from 5,000 to have Hughes for President 12,000 majority, that both men and women can vote for the office. It is argued that if that tremendous majority can be cast for a white candidate in a ward where the black majority is a groes, it ought to give at least 10,000 majority-ored candidate whose fitness for the office even the white people concede. The Defender, in the interest of the highest Race considerations, urges every Negro in the ward to go to the polls on the day of the race, the biggest majority for Louis B. Anderson, the Race's candidate for alderman, received by any candidate running in the city of Chicago. By doing this the power and prestige of the Race has been felt not only in the city of Chicago throughout the entire country. Next day is the day. Negro people everywatching.

FORCED TO RIDE IN DAY COACH sengers South CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE Jacksonville, Fla., March 30—Even a reservation for Pullman accommodations made by a representative of the passenger department of the Pennsylvania Railroad will not be honored by the Atlantic Coast Line, if the reservation is for the use of a Negro passenger. This fact was demonstrated here this week when a determined effort was made to forward president, and George W. Powell, National Negro Travelers' Protective Association, to have a reservation honored, which was made in Philadelphia in favor of Mrs. W. H. White. The department of a messenger in the passenger department of the Pennsylvania Railroad in Philadelphia and came south early in January on transportation furnished by the Pennsylvania company. Her reservation required that she prevent the passenger department of that railroad, but the representatives of the Atlantic Coast Line, the initial company out of Jacksonville, used one subterranean tunnel to prevent Mrs. White using a Pullman to Jacketville. When she applied for her ticket, presenting the telegraphic memorandum, the clerk not only refused to accommodate her, but threw the memorandum in the mail. Mrs. White grew indignant as only women forced We clerk to dig the memorandum out of the office trash. Another Effort Fails Another effort made by Mrs. White failed to receive any consideration when through a friend she applied to C. E. Howard for assistance. He telephoned the city ticket office, only to be unanswered. The city office referred him again to the Atlantic Coast Line. After several attempts to get an acknowledgment, the city ticket office finally stated that the service was terminated by George W. Powell, secretary of the association, Mr. Howard called at the city ticket office and was informed that the diagram was at the Pullman office at the station, and that that "Mr. Clarke there would fix you, you." Driving to the Union Station, they went into the Pullman office without knocking, and walked upon the agent there in a telephone conversation, evidently, with the city ticket office, about a minute later, the F.C. ticket office conversation, the Pullman agent flatly refused to sell the ticket, advising that the conductor would have to be seen. Mrs. White was forced to make the long ride from Jacksonville to Washington, where she met Mr. Howard states that if the National Negro Travelers' Protective Association will be instituted against the Atlantic Coast Line and the Pullman Company.

WHERE TO VOTE TUESDAY, APRIL 3 POLLING PLACES Vote early and cast your vote for Louis B. Anderson if you wish to have representation in the city council. RACE DEMANDS POLICE WOMAN Leaders of the Race Called On to Act and Not to Merely Promise BY HOMER FLOYD Conditions can "just exist" so long, regardless of the class one represents that the crys of his people will awaken in him that appealing voice. "A voice that is crying out the needs of his people, the voice of the common people." "The truth of my people which is easily understood." To the leaders and representatives of the Race in the city of Chicago, and especially in the second and third wards, we ask for police women. Your attention is called the population of our people in the city, the neo-coming of our brothers and sisters, you all know need the co-operation of our clubs and societies, with that of the civil government for the benefit of the public welfare. Now since the city government needs investigators and police this work, and the civil service has three of us, we need an eligible list for appointment, why not give these women something to do. "This people want to see something done; we have put you in these officiating capacities to give us help." We do not believe you have forsaken us, for we are still to come to the full strength, but just believe it has been necessary in your part, and by us not keeping the issue before you to show of its importance it remans, "just an oversight." The population in this city demand a Race police woman, and if our representatives would just request the demands through even if it had to be done through police women. Your hands are not tied and you really can do something. There is not a city in this country that will not co-operate with the majority of its people where that people is for the better. The police council has and still will, through the proper course, grant the demands of its people; the city council will grant our demands if presented through our representatives and backed by our leaders. The people do not ask very much, but surely you can appreciate some of their these women to work in the city so these women to work in the city will not have to try to discourage our brothers and sisters from seeking freedom. These women, being the law, will surely find out why the proper sanitation has not been effective throughout the city to be a godsend and aid to the probation and apportion are appointed to look after hundreds of homes. This is something that needed attention long ago and not just since the immigration from the south. This takes the incoming of the southern city to bring about this needed change. I pray that the number will increase to thirty thousand and of ten thousand a month, for there are many more changes that we, the common people, will appreciate. The citizens of Chicago must flood the mayor's office in embarking him to appoint not for the South City of City of Chicago our women, who have assured the civil service examination and who have stood on the eligible list for years.

The offering is so far out of the ordinary that it had a peculiar off-set character. The guest greeted the popular little star on Monday night; the story of the play is interesting and is full of heart interest and gripping situations, with just enough comedy to keep the auditors in good mood. The musical may be of her opportunities and her personal "Girl" character is well handled. "The Gamble and the Girl" is the title, and the cast includes four characters aside from the star; Lucille Harper as Ethel Moyne, Lawrence Chennault as Mason, the Gamble, and Luke Scott, the well known character actor as Alex Fairr- IN THE FLESH Bryant Washburn, who is the star in inner's Dress Suit, which comes to Pickford theater on Wednesday, at the popular theater self, in person at Bryant Washburn hat night.

Madam Hackley Troubles With Ears Philadelphia, Pa, March 30 — Mme. E. Azala Hackley, prima donna soprapo, known all over the United States, Canterbury, Devon, and Day from Baltimore, Md., where she gave one of her folk song festivals on the 16th at one of the big white theaters to a packed house. While here she sang in the band of Laxton, 1506 Catherine street. The madame informs her many friends that she is feeling as well as could be expected with a continuous pain keeping her hands on the floor of this city, the most of the noted in this country, diagnosing the case, says: "It is rheumatism of the arteries," a small nerve leading into the car, which, of course, is the car of the woman, so she is here preparing to give the benefit of the Society for the Protection of Colored Women, April 2nd. ANSWERS Hamomelet, Ark. Dear Mr. Tony: The poem which I submitted to you and which was returned by you some time ago has been sold to the local Sunday paper; I received $2 for it. I called upon the editor fifteen times before he had a chance to read it, and then five times more before we could come to an agreement. After he bought it he told me not to call or submit any more of them until I see them. Then he showed me a showpiece here week before last; their name was The Tennessee Wobblers and the manager stopped at our house; he had a long talk with my parents about having me go along with them, and the folks seemed to think that that wasn't enough. I am awfully sorry they wouldn't let me go, as it may have been the chance of my life. The manager was such a pretty man and was single, albeit married now. They did fine and the hall was crowded: the manager even paid his board bill and father claims that this was the first time that he had ever thought about it. I am now 30 years old and have never been five miles away from home. Isn't there some way that you could arrange it for me to see State street just once? I would be willing to run away and find someone else who made up last night after one evening that was told me if I go up North. They tell me if I go up North. These white folks in the South— their food —To all my hungry mouth. That snow banks up the year around, Sunshine you never see; I don't believe a word of it— Someone has a leg to me. My father is a very stern man, and if it hadn't been for that fact I would have been married long ago; every time a man comes near our house, the old man either borrows some dough from him or stains big talk about the Europen pen war.

THE GRAND M. fax. All are capable performers and the act took four well deserved curtain calls at the finish. Miss Bush is a vlaculous woman and Miss Bush is a vlaculous woman from the very start. The show opened with Alfred Farrell & Co., a clever pair who produce pictures with the young girl, which hit; the young lady also sang "Twilight", which is forgiven, inasmuch as she used a broogue which no one could understand, singing and talking team faced well the girl doing a semi-unit—whatever that is. Catalano & O'Brien proved to be one of the best catahert teams seen here for a very long time, and they used as a closing number won a tremendous mitt. The final act introduced the Three Lyles, a good musical with a real funny blackface Ofay, who had them guffawing from opening to close. THE MONOGRAM Clark & Kinky is one of the new acts seen here this week, and they introduce a good line of straight character and good comedian and Kinky is right along with him when the hands are passed around Gilly Higgins, late of Glenn & Higgins, has one of the clearest singles ever performed, he puts over a brand new one of stuff he has done, and the ears from opening to closing; the novelty feature is Baby Jim, the largest man in the world. He weighs something on a ball and a half or, and his flesh is so thick that he spreads all over the theater; he is assisted by his brother, Chris Simmons; he tells the story of his life from the present time and winds up his interest in the society through demonstration of how a fat man wonders through some of the society dances of the present. Walker & Brown. Billy and Jake are returning a return after an absence several months in theular as of old. They have brought a new line of talk and Billy just naturally is one of the dancesing fellows that have covered over the boards at this or any other house. This is a well balanced bill, and all leave the theater happy. his nips, dad won't let me have a name to say to him. 'Can you imagine any one do that?' Then there is a young man who is going to the depot; I had my cap all set for him; my night bed tried to nick him for 50 cents and when the young fellow showed dad a bracelet in his jeans was a bunch of brass baggage, I barred him out of the house forever, calling him a cheap skate.

Big March 30—According to dope Alpha Big Five should have sewed last Friday night and went merryly away from here. But somehow things went bad, especially for some of the “wise ones” who were hired and had done everything. But you told you anything about the game. Too bad you were not there, for Generalis Glimore and Jackson must have read into the game full of fight, well realizing what the final score would mean. “Connie” Jackson rang up the first fare of the attack on the Big Five, beginning of the attack on the Big Five, played one of, if not the best, games of the season, the entire team being over this time. “Game” this is especially true of Ferry, so fast we could not see him. Not being content with covering all parts of the ferry hung up three field goals and three fouls, which gave Alpha a headway. During the first half it looked very dismal for Alpha, as they only found the basket for foul and one field basket. The half ended with the tally 11 to 4 for Carlton. He had to play Glmore must have read his riot act, for the Big Five ran over Carlton and left their victim in the road. Glmore and Goode shifted positions in this stanza and the boys. The boys made one of the most difficult baskets from the field that has been seen on Manhattan court this season, one of those hair raising throws that the boys heart seems to stop beating as the ball waivers on the rim of the basket and then—it drops through. The playing of Goode and Scott was also timely. After the game, the New York National made a short address and commented on the game, which he thought was fine. He said in part, "If we had a regiment of men in the New York National, men as those men that played tonight it would be the best of any regiment not in only the state, but the United States." He further said, "The team was very good. But with the roughness the players acted as true sportsmen and gentlemen." Besides Gen. O'Ryan, Col. William Hayward of the famous Fifteenth and presented a beautiful spectacle as they attended attention when Gen. O'Ryan entered his box and the orchestra played the "Star Spangled Banner." The game was given under the auspices of the Lucey Laney League, a charitable organization, and was well attended. The final score was 21 to 21, to house the team, and they good games after certain hours the tie could not be played off, and it has not been definitely decided whether a return game will be played, as the season is nearly over.
