Henderson was arrested. Then he hangs out at Tom Jordan's poolroom (which is known as the "Chaw" gang). They came down with the intention of doing him to Henderson. In their wrath one of them hit H.

Forgotten Republic Joins the United States in War on Germany
Liberia, West Coast of Africa, May 20, via London, England, June 1—The republic of Liberia, on the west coast of Africa, which was founded by Americans of African descent under the supervision of an American philanthropic society, has declared war on Germany and has offered her sympathy and co-operation to the United States. In this way the little African state is doing her bit for humanity.
**Country Forgotten**
Liberia excited a good deal of interest when it was founded, and for some time thereafter. It got a little space in the

public print again in 1910 when a commission from this country visited Liberia to reorganize its government, but has scarcely been mentioned since. It was most Americans are not even aware that this country has stability in Africa. Yet Liberia is a very real responsibility, and constantly becoming a more grave one. By a treaty made in 1862 the United States promised to assist the more and more unhappily conspicuous states in Liberia and the independent existence of the republic. Meantime Liberia has been getting deeper and deeper into trouble with its neighbors, and more and more unhappily conspicuous states in the West African country. When the war is over a great era of development and reorganization will begin in Africa, and then Liberia must either have our aid into the hands of some stronger power.
Rich in Resources
Liberia consists of about 43,000 square miles of the wildest part of Africa. There are two broad valleys with great rivers, and an interior of hill country rising on the highest mountains in Africa. Much of the vationation of 10,000 feet. Nearly all of this great interior is covered with forest, which is the most luxuriant in Africa. There are hundreds of square miles of forest and its mineral resources are little known. Typical forest products of the tropics are found there, including twenty different kinds of rubber, some of them the finest grade. This great interior is practiced, and its mineral resources are little known. The essence of gold is proved by the fact that the wild tribesmen possess it.
These interior forests are rich also in wild life, which is quite peculiar, for the forests are quite distinctive zone of the African conundrum, the home of the rare plum hippopotamus.
There are about 12,000 people of American descent in Liberia, and they, together with about 100,000 indigenous Liberians, constitute the ruling class. The rest of the population of 2,000,000 people consists of wild hill tribes who lack knowledge no authority. The arm of the government reaches more than twenty-five miles inland. Liberia was founded as a home for people of America and a public in the world where the electors must be of African blood. It is in a sense the only African state in Africa, and only place in the world where the Race has any existence as a nation.

Menelik's Daughter Crowned New Queen of Abyssinia
Adis Adeba, Abyssinia, June 1. — The coronation of the new Empress of Abyssinia, Zeedite, was marked by a week's delay, but it was particularly the occasion of rejoicing for those who owed the government a good-sized tax bill, for the empress, in a special coronation for the deceased, exempted all criminals from the arrest and enforced all criminals who were still at large.
No Whites Allowed
The outside world was represented at the festivities of coronation week by the ministers of the entente powers and a handful of Europeans living in Adis Adeba. No European was allowed to be present at the actual crowning, which took place at the annual hour of 4 a.m. in the cathedral, and took her seat at the ceremonies here were somewhat protracted and it was 3:30 when the empress wearing her crown emerged from the cathedral and took her seat on a throne in the courtyard of the cathedral. Here the diplomatic corps and foreign guests were seated on one side of the platform, while the native chiefs and foreign princes were seated on her side. Two princesses had places of honour on either side of the majesty, while on the steps of the throne stood the regent, Ras Tafari, and Ras Kassa, a cousin of the late King Menellk.
Bow to Empress
The diplomatic corps, followed by the European colony and the Abyssinian chiefs passed in single file before the empress, bowed ceremoniously, and resumed their seats. Then the bishop of Abysinia made the oration of the day, and the emperor ordered the dethronement of Emperor Lidj Yassoun and the proclamation of Princess Zeodio as empress, and expressing the hope that the reign of "this illustrious daughter of the illustrious Menelik" would be marked by prosperity and peace. The emperor, by making a proclamation inviting his people to bring their complaints to her personal attention.

Staff Correspondent of the Chicago Defender
New York, June 1.—The civil rights law of the state of New York is one of the most rigidly drawn laws to be found on the books of any state. Because a white bartender in a saloon at 66th street and Amsterdam avenue, violated this law, one man is dead and eight more people were injured in a riot Saturday evening. As usual the white papers Sunday morning carried various accounts of the trouble, colored to such an extent to appear invariably in favor of the white man.
Defender Representatives Investigate
Here is the true account of the starting of the riot, obtained from Benj Hamilton, 245 West 61st street, who was the innocent instigator of the trouble, as personally told to two Defender representatives. Returning home from work Saturday evening in company with a fellow white employee, he stopped in the saloon at 66th street and Amsterdam avenue and asked for a drink of lemon and seltzer, which the white bartender justifiably insisted on his rights, whereupon the bartender offered to let him have the drink for 50s. After some more arguing, Hamilton waited out of the saloon and white men who were in the saloon and heard Hamilton arguing struck him. He naturally struck back, in an effort to defend himself. Soon he was surrounded by white men, running to beat him. He then started to run and at 63rd street and Amsterdam avenue he was stopped by a policeman. The white cowards, running up-told the defender, the Defense League man and Hamilton was started towards the station house. On his way there someone, whom Hamilton believes to have been a plain clothes man, though he was in charge and under arrest, of a policeman in uniform. ..

And if you haven't a ticket you can't come through. Many left and went up the country a piece, then took the train north. I tell you, it was a hard one.

"Pearson's did not confess, I'll tell you that to start with, and whoever said he did, lied. He was brought in Joe Sailor's machine to the place where he was lynched.

WHO OWNS THIS GOAT?
Philadelphia, Pa., June 1.—A nervous goat with one horn and a bad cold spoiled the sleep of inhabitants on Lombard street Thursday night. The goat had a voice which would would have to be heard in order to be justifiably denounced. It was a little tenor and also mixed with a large proportion of bass, and seasoned with a dash of falsetto, and so far remained one of the wheels of a trolley car with one of the wheels on on a quiet summer's night. Billy was doing a bombardment from many windows when Abraham Jones of Tenth and Lombard came along, full of indignation and liquor. He announced that the goat was his and dared anyone to try to get it. This increased the fusillade from the windows, whereupon Jones sets down his basket of meat on the sidewalk (for you must know that Jones sells hanks of meat to poor people), and peeled off his head, and he opened the neighborhood, one at a time (as shown in the finance and the mournful meanings of the goat awakened a cop. The latter took Abraham before a magistrate. The goat accompanied the pair half way to the magistrate's office, and then fled. Jones said he bought the animal from an Irishman down the Neck, and was taking it home so he could sell goat's milk to his neighbors, when he was attacked by the people of the community. He had the animal's action, and the judge thought the wrath of the neighborhood was justified. The prisoner was so anxious to find the frightened goat that the judge let him go, with the understanding that he would keep away from saloons.
LARGE TUMOR REMOVED; PATIENT JOBS
PATIENT IS DOING FINE
Jacksonville, June 1—Dr. A. H. Kenibrow, who removed a large tumor from a patient here last week at his samarium office, has it on display at a newspaper office. It weighs 34½ pounds, is 37 inches in circumference, 14 inches in diameter, and 11 inches high. In the medical world it is known as a multiple cystic fibrotic tumor, and is the largest of the most common types of cancer operation. It began its existence twenty-one years ago, when the patient was 21 years old. Patient is well and receiving visitors.

The poor man was so weak from mistreatment and exposure that he nodded his head like some dumb animal. He evidently was out of his mind. The woman whose girl was murdered wanted to talk. Sailors asked Pearson if the 'Dummy' and Armstrong weren't guilty, too, but the poor man never said a word. Listen to me, can you imagine a big city allowing papers to run what they 'read' as papers, and bragging about running them?
"They didn't want the Chicago Defender sold to the members of our Race, either, and the police made many stop reading the paper and put them in their city papers and read them anywhere on the street.

THOUSANDS LEAVE MEMPHIS
By Staff Correspondent
Memphis, Tenn. Juna 1.—Your correspondent took a walk to Central station Saturday night just to see what was going on, and to his surprise and delight, he saw gathered there between 1,500 and 2,000 race men and women. Number 4. due to leave for Chicago at 8:00 o'clock, was held up twenty minutes so that those people who didn't purchased ticketing were necessary to add two additional leight-foot steel coaches to the Chicago train in order to accommodate the Race people, and at the lowest calculation there were more than 1,200 taken on board.
Judge Purure, in his charge to the new grand jury last Tuesday instructed this honorable body as to the law on the sale of liquor and what they should do against vagrants, of a word did he say about the number of people and at that time there were several extras, giving a complete account of the burning, lying on his desk.
TO THE CHIEF OF POLICE
THIS IS TO NOTIFY BRAVE CHIEF OF POLICE PERRY THAT THE CHICAGO DEFENDER HAS MORE THAN 100 DEFENDERS OF MEMPHIS WHO GET THEIR PAPERS DIRECT THROUGH THE UNITED STATES MAIL, AND TO ACCOMPLISH HIS PURPOSE OF PREVENTING RACE MEN AND WOMEN FROM READING THE DEFENDER HE HAS HAVE HIS ENTIRE POLICE FORCE ARREST EVERY ONE OF THE 170 MAIL CARRIERS LEAVING THE MEMPHIS POSTOFFICE ON THE MORNING OF JUNE 1.
The following editorial appeared in the Commercial Appeal Friday morning, May 28, in an effort to cover up the "dirt" of Memphis:
THE FACTS
The lynching in the vicinity of Memphis, bad as it was, was not sufficiently horrible to meet the demands of the fakirs, and, therefore, they proceeded to lie about it. The lynching was in a spot ten miles from the city of Memphis. As lynchings go, it was orderly. There was no drunkenness, no shooting and no yelling. No stores were closed in Memphis, and no papers went to press early in order that the reporters might attend. Ell Persons, who was lynched, implicated two other Negroes. In the shadow of death he stated that these men helped him murder and outrage the little girl. He stated they helped him to chop her head off. These two men were apprehended. In spite of the declaration made by the lynchad negro, they were turned loose. This was done after an hour of careful investigation of the statement and the contradicting facts.
If the editor of the Commercial Appeal does not know the horribility of the affair, he ought to. All that he had to do to be enlightened is to call in the reporters that his paper sent out to the press that the war was well done. They know that there was a hot debate as to whether Ell Persons should be literally skinned before he was soaked in gasoline and before he was known as well as every one else who saw that the sexual organs were removed, with his ears and nose, before the match was applied. They know that Persons never implicated any other two men, as onePersons reporters on another paper was fair enough, and they know that the majority of the men who would brutal affair in charge were all half drunk, and if the editor of this great paper doesn't know these facts, it is a reflection upon his intelligence. This Persons had adies and gentlemen did everything but the one he was cooked, and we are of the opinion that if he had been a few shades lighter this would have been done.

No, no, go right on; the truth must be known, replied the correspondent.
"Who will investigate and find the grand jury they must investigate and find anything. The foreman of the grand jury would do well if he would call before the judge, Joe Sailor, a common, low-down white man who runs a saloon for Memphis at Main and Exchange street north, and tiger on Second street north, and whom he calls a position marshal. He lived fifteen years with a mutatto woman over the Klondike saloon at Market and Main. Plenty of people are there yet that know that he dead now, but he has another one, Carson howey, on whom he spent $33 a couple of weeks ago, having her teeth fixed.

All could tell the federal judge a heap more'n hed want to know. The judge might try to find out by the police.

"I Said to me, 'Negro Burns,' in big, black type on a pink paper. Samuelson is a Jew and his entire company is made up of Jews. Three years ago, when Leo Frank, a Jew, was lynched in New York, a store close to Samuelson's place came up, and there were some of the news stories on the window. like Kahn them down, saying they reflected on the whole Jewish race. Samuelson and all the Jews in Memphis, as well as my own people, said he did that was right. Now three years later I forgot to both Frank and Pearson were murdered for a crime which neither had been proven guilty of doing.

More Facts of Brutishpear
"You read about the burning. They chained Pearsons to a log and rested it against another, then piled underbrush all around him and poured gasoline over the man and the brush. One white man cut off his ear, another cut off his toe. One member of the mob asked a white preacher standing close by if they should let Pearsons pray. And to think a man making his living on the good will of the people, and in a Christian land, pretending to be a Christian, would say no. That's what he did, and as soon as he faligned so the match was lit. The mob had their own police," their own "plain clothes men" to keep down any trouble should some of my people start something. Pearsons burned. It was suffocating: the crowd wanted to see him so they got a block and tackle and pulled him up.
"The crowd cheered like they would at a ball game in the ninth inning. Some one started to sing 'John Brown's Body,' and all took it up. The air was stiff. Young girls in tender ages, women pregnant, boys whose future lives carry this scene in their hearts."

RECORD RUN
Kansas City, Mo., June 1—The photoplays produced by the Lincoln Motion Picture Co., and which have been featured at the theaters of this city for the past month, have created the greatest kind of an impression. The company's local repertory theater, Joseph LaCour, placed the features for three plays at the Vine, four showings at the Dinarb, and at the National. At the latter theater the management was compelled to run special matinees in order to accommodate the crowds.

HUSSARS, ATTENTION
It is with permission, congratulations that I am forced to notify regret that I have found it impossible to get the government's permission to take you all to the trenches. Although congress has no objections, several reasons set forth by members of the government require too long a training fit for them to be allowed to join the allie. In the first place, it was pointed out that many of the Hussars were past the age where they could be counted and that efficient service—at the front—and that their nurses require too long a training fit for active service. While these excuses may be true, in part, the fact remains that great patriotism has been shown by you all, and it is not your fault that when you cannot be able to do your bit. When a nurse has been Washington learned that I wore a No. 12 coat a 48-inch belt, and that Capt.

They were not of inspecting the nurses; it was discovered by them that some of the ladies were too old for their birthdays; some were not young enough for their ages; some were too narrow across the broad, while others were across the narrow. All this was done and kept secret from me; I had been informed that there was a leak somewhere, but with all my sagacity and years of experience, I never discovered it until it
THE TRUEFLERS
The story of "The Trufflers", which comes to the States theater for one day Saturday, June 26, was written by Samuel Merwin, the noted author, who is known to many. It was published first by the Hopkins Magazine and later, owing to its popularity, it was published in book form. It goes in part like this:
Sue Wilde (played by Nell Craig) has "kicked out" of the sanctimonious atmosphere with which her, venerable father, Dr. Hubbell Harkness Wilde, has surrounded her, and is luxurious in her morality nor goal except that when she is brightest. She is an actress in one of those problem plays which scoffs at conventionality, when Peter Ericson Mann meets her. Mann, an obscure novelist, falls in love with Sue because he has found himself provoking unable to produce the type which he has tried and failed to achieve. She peeps miters herself to become engaged Peter, yet the lure of the limelight calls her from him. A motion picture magnate proves to make her the nation's ideal and she fakes, the novelist's love for fame on the screen. Driven by jealousy, Peter betrays to newspaper men the father has embezzled the church's funds. Old man, unable, to stand the disgrace, out it is that great shock which jolts Sue out of her selfishness and back into woman's sphere. She weds Henry Bates, The Worm," who, unlike the trufflers, has a job and is honestly working for a living. Unexpected, stirring turns living, with the rapidity of machine gun fire and the haste of time of one hour and a half.

Atonement
Atonement
On next Sunday, June 3, one of the most remarkable photo-plays ever produced will be featured at the States theater. It is a Brady International Service special and carries a startling story of love, deception, revenge and hate. It tells of the desperate means a jealous man will take to gain the object of his affections: in this instance a beautiful woman, two men betrayed whom has wealth, and also brought by a wealthy nobleman, who tries to entice her with jewels and money but to no avail. He finally plans a fake robbery, figuring upon the guilt thrown upon the shoulders of the favored lover, and being told by a famous instrument of his plans. The story is an enthralling one and is well acted by a great cast. The star is the famous Regina Badet, known as "The Vampire of France," and working opposite her the charismatic but mischievous Singer, who appeared with Madhana Sarah Bernhardt in "Mothers of France," seen at this theater a short time ago. For gripping interest and startling situations "Atonement" is in a busy city with patrons of this popular house are sure to be well pleased with the wonderful feature. Don't miss it.

Since the whole affair has turned out as it has, it is hardly necessary to tell who the traitor was, but I I was acquainted by jealousy, it having been known that the was to be decorated with the Double Cross on money which you all promised to donate, I hereby promise to pay back; this, of course, makes us even, in-as-much as I never got anything but promises out of course, makes us know if I had, you all would have had it, and any of it back. If any of you Hussars had hoped to shake a nagging wife through the military maneuvers of the troop, it will now be necessary for you of you Real Cross means; and if any of you Real Cross good-for-nothing husband through a bust to the front, you will have to pick out another mode of shaking the parasite. I will not attempt to advise you along that line; I lived long for many years and having been a cosmetician life, I know everything; in fact, what I do know would make a big book, but, on the other mitt, what I don't know about the science of matrimonial economy would be in my encyclopedia. Britannia look like a nickel. My Carter with both covers torn off. But such is life. There is only one consolation which I, as general of the Hussars, have in this sad hour: They also turn, Teddy Roosevelt. So you can, we are not alone in the boat. Dave Peyton, the celebrated hammer-artist, arose to remark that we were refused in the name of humanity. He did not re-enter the assertion, long enough to explain what he was going to save—us or the enemy—as I was all over him like a ton of brick, and it took the combined efforts of Kelly's three bartenders to keep me off him. He was the Hungry Hussars and the Real Cross. I will not give up hope; there may yet be found a way for us to serve our country. Adios.—Gen Tony.
"NEGRO PLAYERS" IN VAUDEVILLE
By Charles T. Magill
Brooklyn, N. Y., June 1 (Special)—"The Rider of Dreams," one of the short plays by Ridgely L. Torrence, which took Broadway, New York, by storm is now being played in vaudeville which took Brooper, Alex Rosgers, Joseph Burt and Burt Rosgers, rest of the plays have been discontinued for the season, though great things are being planned for these shows with the opening of the season of 1917-18. In the current issue of Smart Set, a high-class magazine, George G. Nathan, a well-known dramatic critic, makes a list of the ten best pieces of female acting in the 1917 season, and those actresses not starred, who played this season on Broadway. Among those whom he has listed is Miss Inez Clough, who played the part of Pilate's wife, in "Simon, the Cycilan," one of the three plays seen on Broadway by the Negro players. Heywood Brown, dramatic critic of the Broadway stage, commented on Mr. Nathan's list, including Sunday, May 20, disagrees with the Smart Set critic and makes a list of his own. The significant thing being that Mr. Brown retains the name of Miss Clough, though he rejects the name of some of the better-known white ac

YEN WISE DEAD
The following letter hit the Old Roll Top Desk la. Saturday, having come all the way from Honolulu, H. I, and it tells a sad story.
Honolulu, May 14th.
Dear Friend Tony: I wrote a letter to you a few days ago telling of the illness of our friend, Hen Wise. Well, I am sorry to say that he passed away at Queens hospital, where he had been for some time. He died of a complication of diseases and the end was not entirely unexpected. Would like to have you let Henderson Smith know about it and were close friends. Will give you more details in another letter. Yours truly.
CLARENCE L. BANKS.
Hen Wise was an old-timer in the show business, and for years had made the island shine and Australia his home. He was Ching Ching, a which time he organized the Bronze Review, booking his people at the Old Roll Top, sailing with his troupe of 25 from Frisco last September. The company overcame a short season on the island and soon went on to Australia, some remained in Honolulu and some returned to America.

The Easiest Way
Clara Kimball Young in "The Easiest Way," a photo-drama version of what has been recognized as the greatest American drama, will be the attraction at the Pickford theater for the two days, Saturday and Sunday, June 2 and 3, running continuously, both days, from 2 clock to midnight. The story is by Eugene W. Gershwin, the famous author, and it comes on a day, therefore it will be shown to adults only.
"The Easiest Way" is the story of an actress who battles hard to win recognition in encounters everywhere he sort of unnerved by the ousles which battle so many beginners in the theatrical careers. She accepts the influence of a wealthy man as the only person she knows to help her path, and as a matter of course is virtually compelled to pay the traditional price. Later she falls in love with a newspaper man, but he is too much of a foe to pursue his fortune prospecting. While he is absent the actress again finds herself helpless, and is forced to go once more to the newspaper man for assistance. Again he exacts the price, and when the newspaper man returns, his fortune made, he is disgusted and refuses to for a second time. This leads to a dramatical picture in which the remarkable conclusion
This play was one of the greatest successes of the American stage, running the road and in stock. The photo-drama loses none of the force of the original, but on the contrary, adds many new young players. Laura Murdock, has the most useful role of her career, and her acting is supreme. In the supporting cast is young, good-looking actors, the role he played in the Bernard Blasco production. Another important part is played by Rockliffe Fellows, a popular leading man. Other favorites include Kingdon, Cleo Desmond, George Stevens, Mae Hopkins and Walter McEwen.

When Mary had a little lamb, it wasn't her intention
To tell her pet, until one day she heard a butcher mention,
To sell her lamb, but the butcher wanted her bigger.
While fleece at twice the old-time rate could always find a buyer,
Now Mary didn't have much cash, her clothes were old and slabby,
And so the butcher took her pet, it tipped the scales at fifty.
Now Mary has no little lamb, but dresses smart and fifty.

The world knows the south was wrong as far as slavery was concerned—and upon this issue they met defeat, so why keep alive bitter sectional feeling and hate? Our country today is in the throes of war—loyalty is needed—a united front is needed to bring it to a successful end. As Colored people, we know the south wants to keep us in ignorance of affairs military—they are blind enough to think it to their advantage. We trust at the coming reunion the gray will be discarded for blue, and that black will be as popular a shade as white. It is never too late to mend. The boys in gray are old boys, and their night will come soon.

It is not a place of much interest in tradition, a wondom has always been, and ever will be, a power of thought, language, religion, and physical structure, invariably assumes toward the other an attitude attempt, and the other race, if it be bold and mart it longing to compel either the respect or fear of the world, and the other childish right to the most modern implements of war obtainable.

WHEN THE WORLD WHEEL OF FORTUNE TURNS, no man can tell what race will win the grand prize; what race will rise with power and affluence; what race will vegetate, grow weaker, and perish extinct. Historians tell us the dark race will win the grand prize; the light race will come into power. Many scientists and deep thinkers believe they see in this great world the decline of the white man and the return of the yellow, black and brown man. If it is true that history repeats itself, this is far from being improbable. Some three years ago we thought the whole world would be plunged into a dark war; the light war and the death war of the killing of two royal personages was the real cause for this struggle? Is it not the same old story, enacted in the same old way, and the supposed cause simply an incident? And the man has always been, and ever will be, a powerfully impelling cause for war. Given two races of men, radically differing in traditions, modes of living, cast of thought, language, religion and physical structure and complexion, one race invariably assumes toward the other an attitude of superiority, tinged with contempt, and the other race, if it be hold and martial, soon burns with contempt, and the other race, if it be hold and martial, soon burns with contempt, and that something is a fight to the finish with the deadliest and most modern implements of war oblivable.
Before the United States joined the allies, many thought that we would have trouble with death, and drew fanciful pictures of these ambitious people, first aiding the dead, and then fighting us for conquest. Our entrance into the war has, in a measure, dispelled this feeling, but it is well that our people have aroused themselves to the urgent need of being prepared for any emergency. Our friends today may be our enemy tomorrow, and it should always be the practice of wise people to take this into account.
As one writer says, the currents and cross currents of international relations and self-interest shift so frequently that it is impossible ever to say confidently if and when they will occur. And given year in the future, Yet there are a few primary interests and economic forces which always eventually end in a military struggle, once they have begun to conflict peacefully—provided that neither of two nations thus propelled against the other will seek a decision to arm them. The dark peoples of the earth outnumber the light ones. Fortunately for the latter the war has now their own strength—but will it ever be thus?

Arrangements for registration day practically have been completed. Notices were mailed yesterday to all judges appearing at their respective polling places for duty from 7 o'clock in the morning until 10 o'clock. Members of the board of registration hold two conferences yesterday to clear up all mooted questions touching on the county. It was announced by both Judge Scully and Sherif John E. Trager, will be held on Tuesday, and possible the day of registration. Eighty-five per cent of the registrars needed to be county have been selected, the sherif said.
To expeditite matters concerning registration and to provide an explanation to those who have been affected oddly by the law, Judge Sely, Morton S. Cressy, assistant corporation representative, compulsory representative on questions laid in the draft, and Sheriff Traeger last night discussed and told just what will have to occur in the following specific instances.
What Must Be Done
1. The Man in Town—He will go to his home precinct, answer all questions he has given, and will be given a registration certificate, which shows he has performed his duty. He will be given a registration card, bearing information concerning him, will be sent to the board of registration. From there a duplicate will be given to the office of James T. Icoe, mission to the proper authorities of the federal government. Of Town—If he leaves the city after May 25 it is his duty to go first to the office of James T. Icoe, mission to the proper authorities of the federal government. A supply of these will be received by that date. If he is now out of town he should write to the city clerk, who will send him a registration card he should go to the city clerk of the city in which he is in and before the clerk will certify the card, and it should then be mailed to Mayor Thompson, who will inclosed should be a stamped and self-addressed envelope, so that the person registering will receive a certificate and will reach his home precinct in Chicago.
When Ill and Out of Town
3. The Sick Man Out of Town—He is practically in the same class as the "well" man out of town, except that he is a city clerk for the city clerk of Chicago for a card and the friend will be expected to fulfill all requirements before the city clerk of the

The cards will be sent to the officials of the native city or district and awaiting trial will be filed with those of other citizens. The cards of felons will be kept in a separate file.
May Be Some Changes
The registration officials say 'the annual regulations are correct, in so far as they use the information from the government, however, may make necessary some changes. In all cases, which all questions on the card should be answered were received from Washington yesterday, and they will be posted in the numerous position in all places of registration.' The board of registers, said Judge Scully, "has received no information regarding the hands of the federal government and individual cases will be decided on after the cards are received." A brief clerk of the board of election commissioners, will act as clerk of the registration board to ensure that the cards will be under his direction. Only one point remains doubtful in the minds of members of the board of registration, and naval forces of the government will not be required to register. Local officials decide today whether or not this also applies to members of the National Guard.

Too many people make it believing that everything appertaining to the body solely upon their taking prescribed. In fact, most people entirely too medicine to treat Medicine is only an agent. Medicine is only an agent. One of the factors against a disease and its cure to make it easier to treat the disease, the trouble made or diagnosed early and stillly or intelligent doctor. You only take a medicine, but you have faith in it, and follow with your doctor, and follow
your first mistake in trying to diagnose your own case—you must your second mistake in not following your second instruction's instructions when he advised you the best. Rest is one of the essential factors in the cure of the disease of the kidneys. You made your GRAVY MISTAKE in trying to skin your strength and save a doctor's bill (one that you were well prepared to pay, as you say, did not want to draw money from the bank), listening to, and knowing, the foolish advice of your friends.

You made another effort by trying to rub the swelling out of your feet limbs and face with the application of relief limbiments. MEDICINE ALONE, WHEN NEVER CURE YOU. You may choose to treat it, but if you have a good doctor, you should him cause, the offender you change, the you will grow. You should care in selecting your medical adviser, and you should you should be loyal to him. You should you should confidence, and you should pay him for his services in so far as you are able to do so. It is your duty to tell him when it affects so that it happens, and just how it affects you.
The Doctor
The doctor is supposed to be an educated gentleman and above all things a man of integrity and a part of healing. The doctor is worthy of your confidence and your co-operation. In selecting your doctor, try to select a man that from first "FIRST (CLAM MEDICAL), COLLEGE—a doctor that has had hospital training and experience. Select a doctor that will examine you and write down the history of your case, find out their disease, does not kill mice. On the contrary, the doctor wives a man who will write down the history of your case, safest and best one to trust in long time. The best doctors exam you and tell them that your case is difficult and that they will tell the car would not be afraid to trust a man who will tell them the law on your case; just so, should trust your doctor who will can fully examine you, your heart, but blood pressure and serum blood pressure and history of your disease. Some people are foolish enough to believe that a doctor knowledge necessary for their case, in his head and spit it out just like water flowing from a fountain. Do not be satisfied with your doctor feeling your heart—hearing your head, listening to your heart and lungs over your clothes and patting you on the cheek, saying to him that you will be alright, take this medicine.

Schmalman, his petition was sustained by Dr. Shaw's efforts to stop his show. The movie owner was arrested for conduction an attack on a woman, and his contends was applied for, and he was told to operate until one was issued. —The building was surrounded. The unoccupied house was integrated for a church, and is a most pretentious structure diginagely across street from Shaw and does not want to be integrated into the Wheatley Branch of the Y. W. C. A. The building was probably erected at a church, and was not for church purposes until a very recent date. The location is an out-of-town location, and in a neighborhood distasteful to average church organization. There no doubt but that all the owner expect to get out of the suit was some adjournment settled. On the face of reports, "no doubt but that Dr. Shaw to unassess the would be any action at law.

Buffalo, N. Y., June 1.—R. T. Talbot, southern cracker, who is promoting the American allied bazaar, which is being held at the Broadway Auditorium and will continue until June 6, has given the Race a slap in the face. A committee attended a meeting and was given a cordial reception and invited to participate in the bazaar with the English division as the American division had made no previous overtures nor taken any steps to have the Race represented.

Giant Sidelights
It was a great game and a good one. Certainly looked like both Pete Hill and Duncan are getting younger by the way they displayed.
The police had to eject a couple of rowdies in the grandstand.
Gonzales will probably. know Rube Foster from a Cuban next time he threw the egg on me, most likely. No use to holder it. The ones don't do it. The Giants coped the game.
Chappie Johnson and his Dayton Chappies will be here Sunday playing June 3, 4, 5, 6. The Indianapolis A. B. C's follow.

BACHARACH GIANTS NOSE OUT MEDIA; FINAL SCORE IS 5-4
BACHARACH GIANTS NOSE OUT MEDIA; FINAL SCORE IS 5-4
Atlantic City, N. J., June 1–Downs, the diminutive second baseman with the Bacharnch Giants and whose name at one time appeared on the major league roster, was the spectacular player in yesterday's game at Bacharnach Park and witnessed by the largest crowd yet this season. Media was beaten by a 6-4 score.
The second sacker heads off the battling list for the Giants in his five times to bat, he registered a double, two singles and in the ninth received a pass. Pitcher Yates for Media threw Downs four balls in a final attempt to bring the ball in the least. The second was the ninth was tie. Banks of a single advanced Downs to third and while the visiting moundman was feeling his way with Bayard the doughy second baseman scurried home. Media protested, seeing Downs obstructed the ball, but Bolce found no grounds for the protest.
"Shang" Johnson had the better of the pitching duel, but only by a shade. Yates met all situations. In the third round, the ball was not even held by the other. The help of the over-zealous Giants, again in the eighth he showed that he could not be unnerved by the rallying locals.
Lundy, of whom great things are always expected, and Cummings, who is rewarded in his life as an dependable bitter, were the least high노림
For Bella, the champions of the Delaware County League last year, Left Wing Garrison did the best stick work. Earvin in the infield, and the most chalk against Byrne, lost any chance Yates might have had of winning from the Emerline, on first, and Baldwin, on third, did the most individual work.
Baseball fans have found the ways to the ball park, Tennessee and Caspian. Emerline, on second, and Jackson's venture would prove a success. He has outlined a good baseball attraction for the season.
Jackson is now directing the work of each grandstand and further improvements of the ground will be a sod field.

Whirlwind Fight Ends in Draw
Buffalo, N. Y. J. 1—Slam-bang is right. It just about describes what took Frankie Nelson at C. Fillmore avenue. There was much division of opinion as to who was envious rounds, which had the big crowd tumult. It was the first really successful show given by the club. Cyclone Nelson also and several years ago gave most evenement a run for his money. That he has not gone back he proved conclusively that Cyclone Nelson was right on the job all the time. The mill it looked as if he would hang the sign on the Polish boy. In the seventh round, however, Nelson rallied desperately, the fight and it would be no injustice to either boy to call the bout a draw. Nelson can be damaged as a trainee of the performer, but a trainee can see better out of one eye than he can out of the other. Williams came into the ring at 143 pounds and Nelson

Port Armstrong, Honolulu, H. T., May 30—Gov. Lucius Pinkham marched out on the diamond at Moliilli Field on Sunday, May 6, before 1,500 fans and on a few books.

The governor was a little shy on control, but Sam Johnson called for an out drop with Duke Kahunamoku at the bat and Duke Nelson of the Twenty- fifth Infantry Nelson of the Twenty- fifth Infantry call it a strike. Duke missed the next one when the governor shot over a faded outline to the plains.

LOSE
ROGAN AT ALL;
BEATS ALL STARS
short talk to the fans said that the" Oahu-Service League was organized to give the fans good baseball at the right price, and announced that bleacher seats had been placed at 10 cents in order to give the bleacherites an opportunity to come often. He asked that the fans give their support to the team.
Following out the military spirit of the occasion, the All-Stars and Twenty-10 teams marched around the diamond wall, and was a big feature, and was heartily applauded by the large number of fans gathered to watch the team in action.
They Didn't Miss Him:
If there is any baseball around Honolulu who believes that the Twenty-fifth inning will be the one Wilbur Rogan, then they we're not among the many who saw the Wreckers action yesterday afternoon at Mobilili, no matter miss Wilbur one particle and defeated the All-Stars to the tune of 8 to 1. Theophilus Rogan was the gunner for the Mobilili, he noon he allowed but four singles, which is as good as one would expect from a season where the Wreckers secured thirteen hits, which is to the Rogan standard. So if any one tells you this, you have a perfect right to the personage on the shin guards.
Williams Hit Hard
Johnny Williams, the local boy who played with the Detroit Tigers, was not in the game when he pended more upon speed balls on the corners, and the Wreckers took his offerings kindly. Hawkins, who has troubled curves, secured three hits off his delivery. It wasn't Williams' day, and although he showed his ability to pitch at times, often he hit hard throughout. Mixed in with the hard hitting off Williams was some good pitching, and Gollah, Crawford sent back to the bench via strikeout route while Williams was on the mound. But Crumpler relieved Williams in the fifth and allowed but three hits and one run in the last four innings. Crumpler worked well, and lived up to his expectations, the best pitchers seen in local baseball.

They have not lost a game this season. Manager Jewel is sparing the Giants in the pitching of Laughlin, pitcher, Outfielder Blackwell, Brannon of Nashville, and Day, who promises to equal Grant of Foster's team, are some of the late additions.

JUDGE TO GIVE DECISION IN DIVORCE CASE SATURDAY
Judge Matchett will hand down his decision in the Tucker divorce case on Saturday morning. The jury was out just two hours when they returned a sealed verdict last Wednesday evening, and the judge said the judge could open it the result was too late to get in last week's issue. The jury found Tucker guilty of adultery and returned a verdict of not guilty to the judge, the charges her husband accused her.
Nasty Case
Judge Matchett said that it was the fittest case that he had ever heard, Tucker's lawyers naked for a change of venue after Americus Vespaus Wattkens to the court, admitted that he was to receive $150 for testifying in Tucker's favor. Mrs. Tucker freely admitted she shot at her husband and claimed she did so in self-defense. She also had a letter from the judge, which she interceded which would make dentens of the red light district blush. The civil service board has asked for the letter. It failed to go on record in the court, as Tucker had never received it. The judge referred to as the "obstacle" to be removed and was signed, "Your loving wife of one year--Daddy's Own Child." Officer Tucker and his lawyers will ask an appeal, but the result is doubtful as to which way the judge will decide.
EDITOR JOHNSON
The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People meeting held at the Hull House (white) Sunday night, at which W. W. Johnson was the principal speaker. Miss Brecknbridge (white) was unable to attend. Mr. Johnson has organized fourteen new branches of the association in southern states. In Atlanta there is a branch of 130 members, which began to work immediately and kept the seventh grade from being removed from the curriculum of the public schools of the Race. They are making efforts to have the eighth grade put back. Speaking of the exodus, Mr. Johnson said: "This is the first effective protest the Race has made; much has been said, but this is the first effective protest, because not a few leaders, not a few educated persons, but the masses of people who have fully weighed conditions believe they are bettering themselves. They are leaving leaderless, for most of our leaders have said the south is the best place for the Negro. It might be, or rather, could be, were the whites to make it so—or, rather, let the Race make it so. The forces against the Race are united; therefore, our efforts cannot be individual, but must be united; and hence the plea for more members of the N. C. C. A. P., if for nothing more than the numerical value."
Mr. Johnson talked fully fifty minutes, then answered questions which were not answered. He spoke at Hill of the Chicago Urban League spoke of his work along that line.
MAKES SPLENDID REPORT
"Members of the Race are coming to Chicago because Chicago needs them. Therefore, it is the duty of all people of Chicago to be involved in the race, not treated."

YOUNG PEOPLE HAVE BAD DEPORTMENT
Laugh and Talk During Concert Recitals; Home Train-
There was much surprise Sunday afternoon at the Grace Lyceum when the president, Miss Bertha Moseley, had to call order in the balcony. Then again, it made it for some of our young-er people to provide a number before the artist had finished. This rudeness on the part of our young people has become so great that the forced to call attention to it. It certainly is not an inability or inability to be trained at all. Why should the public have to suffer for the ignorance of a few. The guilty ones are not the only ones who would call the names of some that were heard to chatter continuously Sunday the public would gasp. Two young in their twenties were particularly guilty.
At the Theaters
Rudeness and hilarity are particularly noticed at the States theater on Sunday afternoon when younger folks go in to make love for they certainly aren't interested in it, and they end up and one else from enjoying it. They laugh at the least thing that an immoral thought can be gleaned from, they giggle and chatter. Not children, but high school students—young men and young women.
With every opportunity in front of them, every possible way for them to learn open to them it is a pity that they allow themselves to grow up in such a manner that the public becomes disgusted with them. It is soon time for the ball games at Washington park and the Defender earnestly hopes that better department than that which existed there last season be shown. "Joling women race and be shown," the Defender marks that your mother would blush should she hear them and the actions of young men were disgraceful.
The time to wake up is now and it should be done without further delay.

audience at her last Sunday. It was this true of last Sunday. It showed that when a speaker comes well prepared and when a singer is an artist, it knows how to appreciate. George Willinger, a singer speaker of the afternoon, "Some Philosopher of Its Importance in Modern Times," was the topic, and he covered it thoroughly. Chas. Dawson happily introduced the speaker. Mr. Eggers is acting director of the program. Instructor of the president of the lyceum. Although Miss Robots, chairman of the committee, was absent, her efforts were appreciated in securing Geo. Willinger. Then came Carroll Dickerson, the brilliant violinist who responded with an encore. The big surprise of the afternoon was Mr. Browning of the Exposition Four Quartette. He possesses a great skill and patrons of the lyceum have heard. He has a remarkable stage appearance and sings with perfect ease. His wife was his accompanist. Another big program was the concert profundo, will sing. Jesse Merriweather as usual, disappointed the audience.
