SHOOTS AT WIFE IN LODGE ROOI A XII., NO. 24. SHOOT OSCA One Cousin Kills Another ht Over Child's Baseball Proves Fata! JUDGE OF THE P FUR An unusu Crowe's ero morning wh discharged old boy, wh bureau to h a charge of issued a wr ing the police and show OTS A CAR SCAR JUDGE CROW WARNS THE POLICE AGAINST FURTHER KIDNAPING An unusual scene occurred in Judge Crowe's crowded court room Monday morning when the well known jurist discharged Emmett Pettus, an 18-year-old boy, who was held by the detective bureau to be sent back to Arkansas on a charge of forgery. Judge Crowe had issued a writ at 10 o'clock a.m., directing the police to bring Pettus into court and show upon what authority they were detaining him in prison. The petition had been filed by Emmett's brother, Robert Pettus, who lives at 877 Whitman avenue, F. L. Farnett acting as his attorney. Discharged Where the officers brought Pettus into court, the judge asked the police on what authority they arrested and held the prisoner. The police presented a number of telegrams showing direction from police in Chicago, that Pettus was charged with forgery and obtaining money under false pretenses. "But, where is your complaint," asked the judge. "This is all we have," the police said. "We are holding him for further papers, to send him back to Arkansas." You have an complaint filed, and we warrant the arrest of this man, and you are holding him without proper authority, and I am going to discharge him. The prisoner is discharged." That was not all. The judge had in his mind a more flagrant case of police duplicity of which he, as a judge, had personal knowledge. Looking directly at the police officers who had Pettus in his seat, he wanted to say that this method of questioning them out of the jurisdiction of the court must be stopped or else some of the police will get into serious trouble. I don't propose to permit the authority of the court to be treated in contempt as it was last Saturday. A prisoner was held central station for exorcitation. All he asked was to be heard in court.

SATURDAY, JUNE 16, 1917 RECOI Lloyd's Tripl Beats Taylor By Mister Fan schorling's Park, Tuesday Afternoon, John Henry Lloyd—the same man that it Rube Foster the game with the B. C.'s on Sunday before 12,000 people—came right back in front of 7,600, heart, the Indianapolis team with a hit that sent Pete Hill home from first in the game. He was one gone and Old Sol sinking in the twilight, with his glittering rays beaming across the field, and many women wondering whether their husbands would soak them for not having sipper ready. Did it was a game worth getting a taste for, and I don't blame those that waited. Williams a Comer Joffries pitched good ball for the eight and two-thirds innings he worked. Gatewood relieved him and in the tenth the game came near ending when Lloyd sent a twelfup rap, which Shively grabbed. He the Morris Brown University sophomore, the Marlachs and, believe me, if there ever was a pitcher who had "stuff" on the ball, this ginkg Tom has got it. Plenty of it. Old Addle Joss never had better control. A. B. C.'s started after him in the first two innings. Shively Marlacher went out, D.J. Grace singled to right, scoring Shively. Ben Taylor was out, DeMoss to Grant. Jay Taylor was hit, and Powell singled, scoring another run. That was all for the Taylorites. Twas doggone near too. The Grips tipped one over in the first inning, stole second and then before one was their breath puffed third. Hill doubled out DeMoss rumped home. Warfield trewed out Lloyd. Jeffries tossed out Barber. Francis walked, but Shively was under Grant's line drive to left. **Giants Tie Count** Barber threw the field and it looked pretty bad. Francis doubled to left. Grant singled, scoring France-Grant stole second, when he made his JERSEY CITY TAKES TWO New York, June 15.—The Jersey City nine defeated the Cuban Stars of New York in a double bill Sunday afternoon at the West Side park.

Rube Foster, veteran manager, was on first and played like one of his youngsters: in fact, the game was won by Rube. In the second inning, with two men on, he clouted a single that scored both. Again, in the sixth, he singled and scored another. Redding was relieving Johnson. The pitcher went down for the count and had to be assisted off the field. Rube took his place and Grant went to first for the first time in two weeks. Rube showed plenty of his old-time stuff and the white boys were baffled. The final score was in, in favor of the Fosterers. The game: Am. Giants 0 2 1 0 0 0 1 2 -6 Commercials 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 -0 Batteries — Johnson, Redding, Foster and Dixon; Lorenz and DePlano. Murphy, and Patterson Draw St. Louis Mo. June 15—Earl Murphy and the Patterson, Lightweights, traveled eight fast lanes in a draw as the feature event at the Putnam Athletic club Friday night.

In the semi-final "Kid" Dusty won from young Bailey in four rounds. Alligator Kid outpointed "Young" the other four-round bout, and "Battling" Sampson won in battle royal in six rounds.

Watkins for twenty-five years was with the original Cuban Giants and has for five years been an assistant manager of the Havana Red Sox of this city. Watkins is the man who turned out Dixon, the crack catcher of the American Giants, who promises to be the next great hitter. He has one better than Dixon in Louis. Also that Clinton, who weighs 190 pounds, is the best pitcher in the state of New York. "Pork" says give him just the will of games with Ruble and the public will soon see what he's got all right.

Playing the game from the back was all right as he had gone in to take Redding is a little to blame for instead of pitching his regular style he suddenly switched in the eighth inning and was trying for a no hit game.

CAREY STARTS YOUNG MEN THINKING YOUNG MEN THINKING The Rev. A. J. Carey, pastor of Institutional church, was the speaker at the Young People's Lyceum last Sunday at Grace Presbyterian church, with Miss Bertha Moseley presiding. A packed house greeted the speaker and the young people were invited away. Dr. Carey delivered an address to the young college men to thinking. Shall this people blindly follow those who want to keep the Race in subjection? Must we continue to follow those who for self at the expense of the Race? Must we answer the questions answered by the Rev. Carey when he spoke on the subject, "Have We Followed the Flag?" He grew eloquent when he told about the 24th coming from Cuba after saving Roosevelt and the treatment this regiment received on the house. Dr. Carey brought down the house when he was asked from the flag that black men had supported, but attacked the idea that there should be a "Jim Crow" section for training men who are to shoulder guns. He said there were 58 per cent white men, including the German Jew, Irish, German and French, many other nationalities, asking this government for exemption in the last registration to go to the front and in our race only 56 per cent asked for exemption. Dr. Carey said now was the time for the men of the Race to be brave and to get something for their bravery to sell it for a mess of potage. He cited the contention of the Irish. He told about his recent interview with Secrete Nuxated Iron Beautiful World Say Physicians—Quickly Put Youthful Vitality Into and Endurance 100 Opinions of Dr. Schuyler C. Jaques, V Late of the Manhattan State Hospital and Wm. R. K NEW YORK, N. Y.-Since the remarkable discovery of organic iron, Nuxatid Iron or "Fer Nuxate" as the French call it has taken the country by storm. It is conservatively estimated that over three million people annually are taking it in this country alone. Most astonishing results are reported from its use by both physicians and laymen. So much so that doctors predict that we shall soon have a new age of far more beautiful, rosy-cheeked women and vigorous iron men. Dr. Ferdinand King, a New York Physician and Medical Author, when interviewed on this subject, said: "There can be no vigorous iron men without iron. Pallor means anaemia. Anaemia means iron deficiency. The skin of anaemic men and women is pale; the flesh fabbby. The musclesack on the brain fags and the memoryfags and the other musclesfags, irritable, dependent and melancholy. When the iron goes from the blood of women the roses go from their cheeks. "In the most common foods of America, the starches, sugar, table syrups, candies, polished rice, white bread, soda, crackers, biscuits, macaroni, espadge, napaula, sago, farinace degerminated cornmeal, no longer is found in food. The process have removed the iron of Mother Earth. The impoverished foods, and silly methods of home cookery, by throwing down the waste pipe the water in which our vegetables are cooked, are responsible for another grave iron loss. "Therefore, if you wish to preserve your youthful vim and aipe to a ripe old age, the food is the efficiency in your food by using some form of organic iron, just as you would use salt when your food has not enough salt." "Former Health Commissioner, Wm. R. Kerr, of the City of Chicago, says: "I have taken Nuxatid iron myself and experienced it in my own building effect, and in the interest of others, it my duty to make known the results of its use. I am well past three score years and want to say that I believe my own great physical activity is largely due today to my own experience with Nuxatid iron. I feel such a valuable remedy that it ought to be used in every hospital and prescribed by every physician in this country." Dr. E. Sauer, a Boston physician who has visited this country and in great European medical practice, said: "As I have said a hundred times over, organic iron is the greatest of all strength builders." "Not long ago a man came to me who was nearly half a century old and asked me to give him a preliminary examination for life insurance. I was astonished to find him with the blood pressure of a boy of twenty and as a young man; in fact, a young man he was notwithstanding his age. The secret he said, was taking iron-Nurated Iron had filled him with renewed life. At 30 he was in bad health: at 46 he was careworn and nearly all in. Now at 50 after taking Nux-ium with the liverwort and his face beaming with the buoyancy, iron Ion is absolutely necessary to enable your body to change food into living tissue.

RESCUES MAN FROM FIT James Tyler Stillman, Fiftieth and Dearborn streets, was walking along Thirty-second and State streets, Monday afternoon, at 4:30, and fell with an epileptic fit and bruised his face. Friends came to his rescue and a Defender reporter rubbed him and threw water in his face and Mr. Stillman went on his way. it, no matter how much or what you eat, your food merely passes through you without doing you any good. You don't get the strength out of it and, as a consequence, you become weak, pale and sickly looking, just because you grow in a soil deficient in iron. If you are not able to owe it to yourself to make the following test. See how long you can work or how far you can walk without becoming tired. Next, take two five-grain tablets of ordinary iron three times per day after meals for six weeks to see how strength again and see how much you have seen dozens of nervous, run-down people who were alliling the white double their strength and endurance and entirely rid themselves of all symptoms of dyspepsia liver and other troubles in from ten to fourteen days' time because they had the proper form. And this, after they had it in some cases been doctoring for months without obtaining any benefit. Dr. Schuyler C. J. Cauzes, Visiting Surgeon of St. Elizabeth's Hospital New York City, said: "I have never before given out any medical information or advice for publicization, and I do not believe in it. But in the case of Nuxuria, I will be remiss in my duty not to mention it. I have taken it myself and given it to my patients with most surprising and satisfactory results. And those who wish to increase their strength, power and endurance will be the most remarkable and wonderfully effective.

M. what were thought Dr. Williams the reasons as to why the dispensary is closed. It is not our purpose, nor will we be so question the wisdom of the board of the dispensary, and, in fact, did close it on the first of June. We will be the board of trustees, have labored on providing five years for the good of Provident Hospital and dispensary—we also know that the majority of the board of trustees are business men and busy men, and that a great deal is left to the superintendent to manage the her word goes a long way in influencing the board of trustees—that is as it should we are confident that the superintendent is not always fully aware as to the relation of Provident dispensary to the community, having only real community about two years, did not fully appreciate the needs of the people of this community; that Provident dispensary was very much needed and the superintendent dispensary was the only connecting link the loyal physicians, between the people of the community, whom the hospital seeks to serve, and the hospital Reasons for Closing Dispensary Insofar as we have been able to ascertain, some of the following were the certain, after running over twenty to June, 1917) should be closed at the time when it is most needed and at the time when people are locating in its dispensary, after running over dozens of people are knocking at the dispensary every morning seeking treatment in the dispensary. One reason given was the high cost of drugs and the difficulty of running the dispensary; that it was a low cost. To this we have no criticism to offer—in fact, this article is written with no view of criticizing the management of the dispensary itself, for the reason the writer himself said, that the full duty in endeavoring to keep this dispensary open. We agree that the high cost of drugs, the cost of help, etc., has markedly increased in the last year, and that the increased duty is related to pay more for drugs than they have been accustomed to pay, and we are paying this advance in price without any complaint. In fact, the people who have been accustomed to pay a reasonable increase for their services over what they paid a few years ago. Second reason given was the non and poor attendance on the part of the dispensary physicians; that the clinics ran down because the doctors did not keep patients would come to the patients; that patients would come to the patients; that two or three hours without being waited on by any physician and finally go away disatisfied. That could and By a Staff Correspondent By a Star Correspondent St. Louis, Mo. June 15—The committee from the Illinois Defense Council which went west entered the education of Gov. Lowden to take evidence and attempt to fix the blame for the riots, after a week has accomplished nothing which was not foreseen by those who know conditions. Your correspondence with the governor that the reason for the large influx from the south was due solely to the high wage scale and no evidence was discovered of any concerted effort on the part of employers to induce labor. The governor, normally from 1,500 to 2,000 strike, as was charged by organized labor. In an interview with the superintendent of one of the large plants, which employs normally from 1,500 to 2,000 workers, Colored, drawing from $2.55 to $5.75 a day, according to the work they do, the official questioned gave it as his firm conviction that the riots were the outgrowth of strikes in several plants in the state, which organized labor lost and unorganized labor was established in positions. Labor Leaders After Control Labor leaders want to regain control of the situation, and if the Negro is run off the job they foresee hopes of unionizing the whites and forcing their workers to work. He was also firmly sated that Race help was also which it was impossible to get white men to do, and that without them it would be a physical impossibility to operate. The man said, "The Negro must overcome the oppression as the buildings we occupy, and company him we would have to close down; we cannot do without him. He is vital." Continuing, he said: "There is an actual shortage of labor here, and my ady- tents are: men who may have left is to return; men who must back and we are running under normal conditions, but if things continue as they have in the past, I would not be able to do that. It is over to see large firms compelled to do their work even Chinese laborers to do their work." the committee sent to the east side by the governor consists of John H. Walker, president of the Illinois Federation of Labor; John H. Harrison, editor Danville Commercial-News, and Dr. Frank Billings (all white). Frank Cunin depot, in his station master at the Roby depot, in his oney before the committee said that no corporations had ever made arrangement with him to furnish transportation from southern points to the city, but that hundreds had called on him and deposited money for tickets for relatives or friends.

If the number of patients are too indifferent and do not live up to their responsibilities and give the full measure of service, then other doctors in this great city of Chicago should be consulted. The proper service to the patients when they come to the dispensary for treatment, Arguments and Discussions. The third reason given for the closing of the dispensary is that the sary physicians would gather in the dispensary of mornings and would argue and discuss, as well as cuss, everything except those things pertaining to the welfare of the patients, and the better that for the hours long arguments and heated discussions would be carried on often in the presence of the sick patient, with money to pay for medicine to be examined and treated by the physician. Scientific Methods Re-Opening Provident Dispensary We wish to plead with and urge upon the honorable board of trustees of Provident hospital that in the event that the hospital fails to open financial status will permit, to open Provident dispensary at an earl, date, the earliest possible, because it is the greatest connecting link between the people and the hospital. The people still coming have been trained to seek Colored physicians, Colored nurses and to patronize institutions that are operated wholly or partly by the Colored people—these people are greatly disappeared in the service of the poor of Provident dispensary and find it clear there are some ambitious, hard and reliable Colored physiology vicinity of Provident dispensary, properly organized and managed would prove to be a credit to institution; the dispensary was a center of social service and the he would reap great benefit and we able to broaden its sphere of usefulness dispensary; and that it is believed with proper organization, under good management, the dispensary can be so run, it will not prove a financial burden on the institution. We make this plea, and we believe that many people of this city in the vicinity of the hospital who regret that the dispensary has been closed. worked in a Tennessee sawmill for $1 a day. When he reached East St. Louis he found a job that paid him $28 a day and he had no idea of going back. What People Should Demand So far as any one has been able to learn, there has been no evidence of any testimony taken which indicates that there is a serious attempt to fix the rotters and those whites who were active in committing the crime. The men who pulled off the meeting at the city hall should be able to give some light on this situation; Lehman ought to know considerable also Alexander Flannigan, the lawyer. Going into the economic situation is work which other agencies will probably have to deal with before many months to meet the demands of the munition makers, etc., but in this speculative work, we should do demand the punishment of those rowdies who took part in the lawlessness of rioting, together with those who doubtless conspired to bring the matter to a head, and their speedy punishment. Until this is done the decent citizens of the city must be punished for their peaceful vocations. Uncovering already known economic conditions will only serve to whitewash the whole affair and leave the city unpunished. The law-loving citizens of the state should not be hoodwinked by any such investigation. Some explanation should be obtained from Mayor Hollman on his punishable performance of his duty.
