T. J. King found he was not the only occupant of the tank, for floating upon the placid surface was a human hand. It proved upon examination to belong to the body of a man. The reverend gentleman lost no time in making his exit from the tank. When the body was taken from the tank it was found to be that of Rev. W. W.

Minister in Halts Baptizing Penn, a man about 30 years old and a traveling preacher. Medical service was employed, but the man was already dead and the body was removed to the undertaking establishment of A. D. Price. It was at first reported that the Rev. Mr. King had with him in the tank a female candidate for baptism, but later it was denied. Rev. King said that Rev. Penn had gone to the baptism earlier in the service, but made his way to the pool through a door on the right side of the pulpit, his movement not being observed. It was within five or ten minutes of the time that Rev. King noticed the hand floating in the church was in an immediate uprout. The only reason for the tragedy is that Rev. Penn, knowing that there was water in the pool, had stooped over to get a drink and fell in. A mother and two brothers came over from the pool. Rev.

East St. Louis Troops Enter Government Service; Will Remain in "Riot City" Indefinitely; $100,000 in Damage Suits By J. M. Batchman. Staff Correspondent, Chicago Defender St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 3.—By the time this squab is off the press it is doubtful if there will be a single Illinois national staff member. If they will be under the direction of a department at Washington, and consequently those Colored people who are on the east side' will have the protection of the national government. Transition to the national guard to the United States and gan last week under the direction of Captain E. E. Stull, assisted by Captains A. E. Miller, George W. Armbrust and A. E. Reynolds, all white; the work was done in days, days as there were eight companies to examined besides some 700 new recruits. The business men of East St. Louis, after much work, succeeded in holding the soldiers in the city for an indemnite period, and the fact that they are now a part of the United States army places the burden of maintaining peace on the national government, as Secretary War. We has consented to their remaining in East St. Louis for this purpose. Many war munitions has been interfered, with during the unsettled conditions brought about by the riot; some persons of influence even hint at German conspirators using organized labor as a tool to make trouble SOME SLICKERS Phil Jones and Miss, Swanson Eased Away and Got Married Well, there are some slickers in this here city, by gum. They were so slick that they kept the Defender fooled for four weeks. Phil Jones, the business manager of Phil Jones, was quick- ly, and Miss Irene Swanson, daughter Rev. and Mrs. James Swanson, May- wood, Ill., slipped away to Wheaton, Ill. on July 9 just before they went to the St. Thomas church picnic and were quietly married. Saturday a friend of Miss Swanson came to wedge weds sent them a present. They slept it Mr. and Mrs. Phil Jones, Maywood, Ill. And, of course, the Defender re- porter looking over the present caught a gimpse of the little tag and it was golden when then. When Jones was told Monday he stammered up and just grinned. Mrs. Jones called over the phone and she said, "I'm so busy I can't stop to talk now." WOMAN SHOT TO DEA3 MARSH TO DEATH Cleveland, Ohio.

If Germany did succeed it, certain in capitalizing American racial prejudice against the government. However, the plants are running now at practically their full capacity and are advertising every day for additional Colored help. The seating is the new chief of police apprehension by the East St. Louis board and is making a NEWS-PAPER appearance of starting in to clean up things. The situation looks anything but favorable and the authorities are moodwhining no one. That kind of rankest kind, from the state authorities all the way through; its very lack of publicity and the unwillingness of the officials making it, to allow the public to judge of the character of what whole asing as an outrage the ables electorate; and the fact that Mayor Molmari is still in authority in East St. Louis is enough to shake the confidence of every lover of decent men. However, the Colored men stay in the town and fight the through. Guils for Damages Inc.

GOINS SHOOTS HUSBAND IN THE BACK Saturday night at 8 o'clock police of the 11th Precinct station, responding to call to 5443 Dearborn street, found Golins a few yards from that house with his wife, Mary Golins, in his session of a high-powered rife. Golins was rushed to the Provident hospital, where his wounds were dressed, and to the county hospital. His wife was taken into the custody of the police. Mrs. Goins, when questioned by a Defender reporter, said that her husband had left her a week ago following an argument over the time in that period been living at 5127 Wabash avenue, leaving her without any money to get support. Thursday night he came to the house to get the insurance papers, and then he said that, Goins threatened to take his wife's night of the shooting Goins came to the house and knocked on the door. Mrs. Goins answered the door and responded response thought that her husband had been threatened by a threat. Terror-striken, she fired the shot that injured her husband: Mrs. Burdell and her son, Jessie Bonds, who witnessed the affray, said they saw Goins house and knock on the front door. Presently they heard a shot and saw Goins run down the stairs, saying "I'm shot." FINAL EDITION KISSES DYING MAN "GOOD-BYE" IN PATROL William Stereth, age 33, was shot by his wife, Mrs. Della Stereth, age 37, in the kitchen of their apartment, 125 Mecca building, Saturday night about 9:45 o'clock. He was taken to the Provident hospital by a Stanton avenue patrol wagon, where Dr. Burrell, interace, and Miss McGhee gave the injured men attention. He had two bullets in his body, one entering under the arm, piercing the lung, and the other in the arm. Four shots were fired. At mid- Thousands March in Silent Protest New York, Aug. 3.—Aristocratic Fifth avenue, in Manhattan, Saturday afternoon witnessed a unique parade when some 4,000 people of the Race paraded in a procession of colorful clots in East St. Louis and other places. No bands blared out martial music and no uniforms relieved the monotony of the trudging thousands. Even the march seemed to have caught the spirit of silence, and there was no cheering or hand clapping. Only the throb of muffled drums and the shuffling countless feet, unused to the strain of the march, marked the passing of the procession. Every Class Represented Every class of occupation in which the Race is engaged, from lawyers, ministers and professional men to ditch digger, were in line. Men, women and children all trudged from fifty-ninth to Twenty-fourth street in the dumb panovarks of the city, which are deemed unbenable. Big signs bearing printed paragraphs were carried by scores of marchers. In the belief that the character of the parade might cause some disturbance, the police department had taken elaborate measures to prevent the avenue on both sides, while a cordon of mounted men headed the parade and one brought up in the rear. But there was not the slightest need for them. The first marchers to arrive at Madison Square disbanded and then killed his sidewalks and applauded as the rest of the parade came down and were absorbed in the crowd. Clergymen Head Procession Headed by the Rev. Hutchins C. Bishop and the Rev. Charles D. Martin, the moving spirits of the scheme, and a dozen other ministers, the parade started. The first section were some hundreds of small teachers under the guidance of teachers. A drum corps composed of four boys, their drums draped with black bordered handkerchiefs, furnished the music. Following the youngsters came the women, all dressed in white, with black hats, long looks, dated back to civil war days. The men formed the last section. While there were some few banners scattered through the other parts of the parade, the main number were among those who were. Some of them were: "No Negro has ever betrayed the flag, attempted to assassinate the President or any official of the government," "Your hands are full of blood." The first blood for American independence was laziness, murdered when we work." Race prejudice is the offspring of ignorance and the mother of lynching." "If you hate me on account of my color, blame yourselves and God." "Give every man your rights and God." We fought in six wars, our reward was Eas St. Louis." "We are willing, but unarmed." Other banners, depicted, the number of Race men engaged in different occu- pations, the apologists feel that it has done no more the work in sounding the keynote of 12,000 black folk, the New York-Wor- menting editorially, says.

After the shooting Officers Conley and McCarty, both white, entered the room and found Mrs. Stereth cool and deliberate.

SPEAKS FOR THE RACE Joseph H. Manning (white), former member of the legislature of Alabama now living in New York city, has written a pamphlet, "The Autocrat South." He was born in the south, with a silver spoon in his mouth, a typical southern gentleman. He remained there as long as his conscience would let him. Mr. Manning became cred of the south's philosophy, "Down with the black man" and up with crime, turning, lynching, injustice, concubineship, "Crowism, ignorance and barbarity." He delivered a speech before the Allen Christian Endeavor league, at Bethel A. M. E. church, New York city, Sunday, May 15. It was one of the ablest addresses heard in the east for many a day. He defended the Race in no uncertain terms, and made a plea for fairness and justice in the courts, trades and business. Every true American should read this address. It is one of the best and most complete addresses on the Race problem ever uttered by an American citizen. He has gained prominence for fighting Bourbonism. Long ago he made a reputation for pitching into ballot box stuffers. Now he comes forth with renewed force fighting for members of the Race. A copy should be in the home of every loyal Race man. Send to Joseph Mann, 214 W. 134th street, and secure a copy; only 25 cents. The Defender urges the readers of good literature and those who love their Race to send for a copy.

Abraham Lincoln, our national interest chiefly in view. Any justification for the calling of such an assemblage in a group of loyal Americans, fully 12,000,000, casts a damning reflection on our sense of Justice and Christian practice. A Speedy Got Together Needed And yet, in view of unjust and unbable conditions that continue with increasing horror, to afflict all Colored Americans, we challenge this nation and its people, and sufficient cause for a speedy and general getting together at this time, in self-interest and in self-defense. However, we may yet sit on our basked Christian Democracy, by less than less, the truth, and nothing but the truth. Therefore, by the authority vested in the rights League, by the rights League, I do hereby issue this call for the tenth annual convention of said league, and also for the second Congress of Colored Americans to seize in September. There are no words in any language that can adequately portray the increasingly appalling humiliation to the American citizens are being daily subjected in certifiable induced-cursed section of this country. Laughter in Hell and Weeping in Heaven The party in power has its iron heels on our necks. Our nation's chief executive and his associates in power have more power than anyone done more against than any other administration since the days of Abraham Lincoln. The ruthless disregard for our civil social and political rights; the desire to control property; the shameful segregations and humiliating discriminations everywhere enforced against us; the horrible butchery in the schools; the inebriated in both southern and northern states and the sleeping apathy of the American conscience present a picture so infinitely horrible that must cause laughter in the audience. The fresh, warm blood of innocent men, women and children of color that cloak the clay in East St. Louis, Ill., our great masses, TO GET TOGETHER. Who Can Blame Us? In the face of such unspeakable horrors, who can justly charge us with what we have done? In pause in the midst of international wife and to raise our shackled hands and our unheeded cry in defense of our own freedom, while Whites Cling to Prejudice? If it white Americans during such trying times can cling with such a struggling grip to their color-phobia, should we be able to resist our own continued existence? When the Caucasian, while plunged into the very hold of war, and death, and nature, every turn of the road to practice his vile color schemes against us, it is high bearers of the nation, who can burden the oppressor's rod. So heavy grows our burden, and so galling becomes our patience on our part will soon become Let Colored Come Together Therefore, let us come together. Let us gather from the east and from the west from the north and from the south from the north and from the south, strength of the race, let us run "roundabout" and confront and combat the forces of the polluted, blood-bistered, crime-can-bleed, that continue with wicked slaughter of our brothers. We get together and find a way, or make a way, that will lead to freedom. If unhappy conditions, we cannot get together and find a way, or make a way, that will lead to freedom. If unhappy conditions, we cannot get together and find a way, or make a way, that will continue to hang us separately. Any person, white or Colored, who reaches that "this is not the proper grace and to speak in his own words," is a dangerous ally to our vilest oppressors. Colored and white pacifists who fight against us that they should have right, constitute one of the root causes ```markdown ``` We are the largest Colored Women's Hair.

Clarke said no and opened the door, but Clarke bartender ducked and the bullet missed him. Bonder's gun. He fired two shots and then some more. Johnson, who had been hit and he ran several steps before he fell, shot wild shots got Johnson, who, according to both Boland and Treadwell was only an innocent bystander.

Nadell & Follette sprang a new line of chatter in their third position on the bill, and aside from a few blue notes in the upper register by the young lady every time he is high order, especially a recitation by which his chatter has a strong criticism against was as a basis. The Billy King company put on a farce comedy called "Neighbors" and it was near a knockout as anything that they have done here yet. It told a story of the boy's problem of a couple of first-door neighbor women who had a flirtation on with each other's husband and the troubles and deceits practiced by the men in their attempts to conceal these flirtations, and which finally releases them into a proposition whereby there was a good time for the change of husband and wives all around the house and Kelly and Billy King did the husband thing, while Georgia Kelly and Margaret played the part of the wives. As a gossip Geetude Saunders showed the whole story of the wife and when she finally swipes a shirt off, the portrayal of the part was made perfect. The comedy was of the screaming variety. There was several song numbers introduced that did well, among which was "Tretty I, Willie Diamond Ring," by Teresas-Brooks, and "Three lohnnies" and "Thayk How I was Get ut." by Billy King. The first half of the present week ended with "The Youngers, a team of nine girls, the young lady of the team" is a shape that would make September mourn. Farrell & Walton, a good band, will be seeing act, presented a new album of talk and put over several song numbers that got more than the ordinary amount of mitt. Marion Hall and Girl Friends, a trio, have a very neat offering and delivered in a most approved manner.

Get it: Camden, N. J., July 29. Dear Friend Todd Just a line or two to straighten you out on the recent riot at Chester, Pa. He met with Park's Aristocratists, and played Chester with a woman was sailing along secretly until Wednesday night, after the opening chorus; some one rushed in the tent and yelled, "I'm going to play a trick to continue the performance, but there was nothing doing, as the people poured out and made it for home to seize weapons for defense. don't know what to do." Our people are in the lead; they weren't caught unprepared as they were in East Chicago, never before saw such a supply of firearms about their business in a business-like way, no loud talking or thrilling, but they all seemed determined to die in defense of the officers were very fair in their treatment, both colors, without favor, who were caught with arms. One good thing—he didn't make the mistake of calling the police, he secured the state constabulary, an organization similar to the mounted police of Canada, and what it takes for people to be in jail, and they are about every day in jail. We people had a fair chance and held them own. Five people have lost their lives, four of them being whites. About three people are in jail, and they are about every day in jail.

TO MIDNIGHT SEE THE DEPTHS OF IMMORALITY REACHED BY A MAN TORTURED BY DRUNKARD'S WIRST, AND THE UPLIFTING INFLUENCES OF A PURE WOMAN'S AFFECTIONS STATES THEATRE 380X STATE STREET "Even As You and I" When Manager George Paul of the States theater instructed me to review the great drama, "Evan as You and I," which comes to that popular house for three days. Saturday, Sunday and Monday, Aug. 4, 5 and 6, I knew that I was in for a pictorial treat as I realized that the great actress, Lois Weber, was the star of the feature, which is in seven wonderful reels. A synopsis follows: Dominick Carillo and his wife, Selma, begin their married life with high ideals and noble purpose—even as you and I, their safeguards and protections, and the three statues made by Dominick—Youth, Love and Honor. These they cherish and resolve never to part with them. Held gently aloo of their idealism, the young sculptor and his wife are beloved but alien figures in their little Boehman world, in which are an artist and his wife. This wife is a victim of Jacques, an imp of Satan, with whom she is always flirting. Satan broods much of the time because he is perfect love of Selma and Dominick, but he is not perfect love of him to break in upon this harmony, the imp has failed. And Satan, having been so faithful to Selma, the name of Cleo, a beautiful, fashionably dressed girl, to pose for Dominick as an image of Lust. Finally Cleo is the one who is most unmissable she conquers Dominick's hopper. Seimla has witnessed the passionate scene between Dominick and Cleo, and falls faintning to the floor. Hurling the tears of mannequin, she guttily raises her and lays on her to the lying there, weak and ill, she listens to Satan. He tells the sculptor that money has dried the tears of many fair ones and asks him why he does not give his youth to her. The luxuries due her youth and beauty. And so Honor is sold to the devil. The young wife is very susceptible to sympathy, so Satan sends another imp imp upon her. So insidiously does he gain his respect, he is not; conscious of her dependence upon him. With Honor gone, Love's vigilance reclaimed, Youth has no protection. Dominick has become a great drinker and an influence of liquor, but falls miserably. While in a roadhouse, Jacques, the imp, suggests a toast to Dominick's sister. For Selma is not with her husband, and For Selma is not with her unexpectedly, knowing she is alone. Dominick, for Selma, is madly home and finds Selma in Stary's arms. Yearning for sympathy, she has not realized Stray's purpose until her sister, who is to his wife, and brutally strikes her again and again. Selma, snatching up a paper knife, flees to the church and is held by herself, but a friend prevents the action. Years pass by. Tortured by the drunk-ard a thrift. Dominick falls to the depth of his own rewilding few remaining statutes. On day, having wandered unconsciously to the old man he meets Jacques, who hands him a revolver, and the only help he can spare. Satan thinks he has won this soul for certain and has a new memory of back old memories to the drunkard, and he. gazing at the image of Repentence, he restates, "she encores the studio and chapels in her arms. She kneels, but she springs eagerly forward and chaps him in her arms. He kneels, and she falls in melsy, while Satan, realizing he hne lost, vanishes. And so Selma and Dominick are reunited and begin again at where they left off—Eves as You and I." "NATURE" A BIOT Omaha, Neb.

Howard Kelly, as the bulldozer, fits like a glove, and the pretty part of the tale is that he gets his in the end and all is serene in the finish. Several new musical numbers are being sung and taking it up one side and down the other, Arizona Dick, Gambler, is a little different, and a whole lot better than the average, which, you will admit, is going some.

Well, you showed him your photo, and he said that maybe it was better, after all, as you would have been too fat to eat. Well, you showed him this reaches you, but whether it does or not, I am happy that "tonight is the world, and that at last we will have a chance." WINDSHIELD JACKSON Reply--Dear Windy: I certainly hope that you will still be alive and well when this paper reaches the front; by then you will be able to dance and I know that, whatever the come, you have done your duty; it is a fine thing, Windy, to get an opportunity to write your fine quality has not deserted you, even in the trenches among the smoke and fire, what may prove to be your last adventure. I never failed to pull for you and am doing so now. That was a fine Joke To me, and I am going to be up to run. We fell fellowships up with a whole lot of that kind of stuff but whats the diff? After all, I did not have a normal trenches to be good-by before I came in there. I must be something fierce and if those shells and things are ripping away at normal trenches I must be good-by before I came in there. Be sure and tell me in your next letter every detail of how the job is accomplished, and every special interest occurring, don't forget that I am over here ready to devour every word of your correspondence. Remember, I knew also how he behaves under fire. Be careful, and remember that I am with all my might. So long Windy, and don't forget to you. Yours, GEN.

If the widow and four small children, First Infantry, joined. The game was a comedy, or rather a comedy with music, with the picked team in the role of comedians and Jasper, Rogan, Smith and Johnson of the Wreckers in the role of villains, aided by the other members of that all star cast. The matinee started promptly at 3 p. m. and before the curtain dropped over the first scene of the initial act the Wreckers' company scored two encores. Ralls of the infants evidently rallied a fight when he let Hawkins' sole soldier bowing to the audience from the third entrance, left by the time the will SPARTAN CLUB LOSES STAR Arverne, L.

Sunday, the Colts defend the national aggregation. the Cleveland Braves, 9 to 5. Blanchard's slugging for the victors and Blanchard's base running, were the features of the game. In five times at bat Blanchard got two doubles and a home run. Harris fanned ten and McPesson eleven. Score by innings: was returned to the stage. Smith tuned his baton for a high note in the same direction, which Ralls also mussed. Hawk-eyed Rogan was brushed out of the spotlight as Johnson's strikes, Johnson's monologue entitled him to a tilt the ticket, and when Goliath laid one down to left of the pitcher's box he scored. The picked team nearly made the first act, but Buckland made his debut, interpolating with Moore on a high note. Stratton repeated in the census similarly to Mr. Smith. Mr. Holcomb, who was shouted for three keys, completing the fourth when Hollis whanged to center. The second act was tame, but the third saw the beauty chorus of the Wreckers prince for two more marks, the coy Boyle; Smith pushing a verse through Boyle; Smith pressing the high notes to Mr. Hollis; Smith means a byplay to second. Chief was evidently enaptured with the tune Johnson played with the baton, erring, Smith scooting to the wings, Mr. Johnson reaching second, from whence he reported the prompter at home plate on Gollah's gift, to which the picked company scored but once after while the Wreckers now and then made good until the magical number 11 was reached. The latter acts of the snow were rather poor, serving as chasers, for most of the audience had dispersed home for a retreat. Jacques Jasper, the hero of the matinee, appearing in the role of pitcher, holding the opponents in fine style. Rogan was not able to appear in his speciality this afternoon, owing to poor voice, it is claimed, but he cavorted in it, in great style. Hollis, Holcombe, Stratton, and Dunlap and Maddis showed good form in the chorus of the Merry Infants company. Mr. Sprague of the Thirty-second made his appearance as a critic of plays and scored a pronounced success. A Mr. Leavel of the Twenty-fifth tried to be in the opposite, that is to Sprague.

Spiner, of the Training Camp at Des Mimes, Iowa, Develops Half as a Liar, the German and Better a Liar, the German and Better a Liar, when He Lands in the Trenches. By The Scrutinizer New Orleans, La., Aug. 1.—The following letter was received and published a short time ago by the Times-Picayune, the best of the local papers here. That such guff as it contains should be taken seriously enough to be accorded publication is surprising; that it was written by a man whose experience in the north has been limited to his trip to the camp shows to the world that the lying skunk is as qualified to advise our people in the south as a gorilla would be to try and teach them domestic economy. He is evidently one of the classes of “white folk’s ding-whego” who glory in condition which allows the low whites in this section to live in open adultery with women of the Race, and who would not make a protest if his own kith and kin were forced to take part in the condition mentioned. Anyway, he will make a fine “officer” for an army; he should go back to his dear Dixie, when he finishes, and organize a regiment of men of the same age, and lead them into the bay, as the writer is the opinion that their carcasses would be attending even to the turkey buzzards that keep this section of Lynchvanla clear of carrion. Here is the letter, read: "Allow me space for a word to the people of my Race who are leaving the south. A student at the Colored officers training camp and in touch with the people of my Race. I am in position to talk to the people of my Race about leaving their south. "For heaven's sake, don't come north, nor west. I find that some few of us are doing remarkably well for the present; that is, getting $3 and some as much as $2.50 and $1 per day—just about enough to have three respectable meals each day and clothes to wear to work. The majority do not do half so well. Very few take into consideration that winter is coming. At the present death rate, stated by reliable men, more than three-fourths of the men, women and children who left the south will be dead before another spring if they remain up here through winter. I am unable to see any difference between north and south, except they pay just a little better wages in some cases; but the other advantages are in favor of the south." "In my own case I am up here attending the officers' training camp, preparing to render whatever service I can to my country. When this duty is over, I am coming back home, to live and die in Dixie." "W. L. JOINER," "Company Eleven." LONE STAR STATE Houston, Tex.

Miss Lewis' musical talent was evident in her singing, which was composed of his people for more co-operation to help the Race, that is one of the grandest signs of Christianity. Dr. Stewart made a short response, complimenting the choir and expressed his surprise at the success of his people for more real work and. He said that Rev. Boykin and his people were doing real work now. He attributed a part of the blame on the leaders of the community, especially the part of the Race, and gave the other part the blame to the people. Rev. Boykin is very broad and congenial. He is having a series of business meetings for the purpose of establishing a kindergarten for the children and night schools.

While Chicago has had thousands of new-comers in the past, of every class and condition, there has been very little friction. A systematic plan was figured out and carried out by a host of earnest men and women, who have the welfare of the Race at heart, for caring for the strangers. Clean, sanitary homes were found, work secured and kindly talks given on the "don'ts" of a big city. But it is impossible to do a watchful eye over all who come within our gates, and here and we can be found those who lapse into their old method of living. Because rent is paid for a certain flat or house is no reason why the pants can hold high carnival, disturbing their neighbors by pounding piano, dancing and singing far into the night. It is no reason why an hang out of their windows or sit on their front porches half bed, talking and laughing loud enough to be heard a block. It is no reason why a window ledge should be made a receptacle from everything milk to a beer bottle—mostly the latter. It requires nothing more ordinary intelligence to see that these things are against the laws of decency, and the class of people who do these things have no in a respectable neighborhood.

SPENDING MONEY AGE PERSON has no real conception of the amount of money to conduct this war. They note in the papers Second McGill, where it requires $8,000,000,000 for this, $7,000,000,000 for that, and millions for the other, but the figures have no real significance. In all, they are too vast and in the second place only in a small way, so drain been on the individual pocketbook. We are perhaps the richest people in the world and such do things on a lavish scale.

Other bequests by Colored people, vlc, Dr. Caldwell or Reporter, Johnson, Roberts or Roberts, Robber of Chicago, testify at least to his pious-humorous interest of the Negro in this great work. TO HOLD IN YOUR GRASP the power to crush an evil and not to make use of that power stamps you as a traitor not only to yourself but to the Race at large. Every individual who blazes a path through life's forest makes the journey easier for those who come after A long and intimate association, covering a period of twenty-three years of social and professional contact with Provident hospital, and in closest and friendliest touch, as we believed, with the people we have made, to the upbuilding and maintenance that institution, we were prepared to vigorously oppose any statement that challenged our right to speak with authority on any phase of its many laudable activities. But the interview, with the people we have made, is its somewhat sterriling expose of the inharmonious relationship between the hospital and the Colored people, as a whole, has led us to dig into the records, as it were, to discover its cause, possible, or at least to justify the faith of its many friends and supporters. him. To take the initiative in any movement requires strength of character and an indomitable will. Men and women we have in our Race who possess these attributes; others need but to have the way pointed out to have them to follow in their footsteps. Just as long as we submit to segregation and its attendant evils, just so long will this curse be heaped upon us. But while individually, the king has been most willing wanting, colleague, they are deserving of the greatest merit. The splendidly persistent effort of the advisory board, which despite his institutions, still maintains the integrity for the honor of the duties of the king, the king for the Ladies' Minstrels, the quiet but efficient work of the King's Daughters and several other charitable operations all bear witness at least to lective interest. If there ever was a time to strike for freedom in its broadest sense, that time is right now. Supply and demand regulate everything; our services are more in demand now than ever before, and the demand will increase as time goes on. If we fail to reap the benefits of this golden opportunity we have but ourselves to blame. To every man or woman who is employed where segregation in any form is resorted to, we make this appeal—leave your position if that position requires you to humiliate your flesh and blood, if you must be the tool of the prejudiced white man. Better dig in the ditch from sunrise to sunset, or beg from door to door, than be compelled, as some railroad porters are, to order perhaps their own dear mother into a dirty jim crow section of the train upon which they work. We find, however, the critic, the Trustee as to the individual, justified, for, sad to relate, in the fort to meet the splendid and, in fact, fuller, fuller. Fuller. Fuller. Fuller. One-tenth of the amount raised, that year was from individual donations; and this year only a single donation of $10 has so far been received. Complent on this is unnecessary. It has a well-equipped, high-grade training, school and institute. One hundred and forty-five trained nurses, many of them pleneer in this work of mercy, carry the gospel of right living, and their help ministrations to both races, north, south and west. Fifty intereses, full of knowledge, zeal and earnestness of their call, the theories along, practical lines, by service in the hospital and dispensary. And in the quarter of a century of struggle and triumph it has cared for and cured over 20,000 patients in the hospital department; over 90,000 patients in its dispensary and outdoor relief; over 100,000 in the amount of work has collected and bursed, without the dishonest dive a single dollar, the enormous $600,000. First of all, we found that it represented an investment of about $125,000, contributed by such stance and unwavering friends of the Race—many of them now gone to their reward—as P. George George, manman, M. Freer George, H. Wobble, H. Kohlsaft, Cyrus H. McCormick and many other large donors, who caused it to be built and turned over in trust to the Colored people without a penny of indebtedness; but we failed to find that vast sum a single dollar contributed by H. Wobble, H. Kohlsaft, Colored people who were financially able to assist in the enterprise. We must work to live, that is true; but what other nationality would submit to such humiliation? Not one. And yet we sell our birthright for a mess of pottage. It is time to act, and every man that has a spark of manhood or Race loyalty about him will join this national movement to better conditions for our people. It is your duty, Mr. Railroad Porter; it is your duty, Mr. Clerk and Mr. Waiter, to inform your superior officer that you no longer will be a party to the crushing and keeping in the mire of your flesh and blood. When next this task is imposed on you, resign rather than submit. Remember, in union (not labor union) there is strength; remember it means liberty for you and yours; remember your employer needs you far more just now than you need him; remember that the sacrifice, if it can be called a sacrifice, is only temporary at best; and remember above all things that you are in the right, and right always prevails. Let every man and woman who reads this message carry it into each nook and corner of this broad but not free land. It is now or never. We are counting on you to do your bit. Let your voice join in the chorus of the thousands who answer "I WILL." Nor does it appear, in all the succeeding years of struggle to keep the heritage unsullied by debt, where the man as an individual has appreciated his responsibility. By the term individual we do not mean, nor did the trustee intend, to refer to the Colored members of the board of trustees and the medical staff, for many of them only given freely of their time and money, and have sacrificed their professional advantages to further the interest of the institution. It is true, however, that, dying, a few have condoned the faults of the man we find that old, Colored lady, Mrs. left little all, $25, as a bequest to the institution, a gift and a spirit of giving so Truly, a notable and noble Let us, as a Race, in the furl to the full realisation of this, prove the Trustee's oath, indifference, studied neglect soning opposition." Mail a copy of this issue with this appeal to every Race man throughout the south as well as the north who is holding a position where he or she is forced to jim crow their own. They would not ask a Jew, Irishman or Japanese to draw the color line or race line on their race. "For God's sake, open your eyes, strike now, walk out from any job that robs you of manhood or womanhood; send this appeal to the Race women and men you know working in depots and steamboat wharfs in the south, where they have, "This side for 'Niggers.'" Be Men; quit your job; let them put the would-be men, who lynch you, as porters and depot attendants; get out, pick rags and sell old iron before you do as no other race would to his own. Of course, they may crush you, but they cannot conquer you. You won't starve. Make your own destiny. —ROBERT S. ABBOTT, Owner and Publisher E PLURIBUS UNUM I wonder if Abe Lincoln can look down from where he is, And see the things that happen in this land that once was his; I wonder if his heart aches; if the tears bedim his eyes; If heaven is not quite perfect for him, beyond the skies. He must recall the message he gave us, long ago. When he said, "God made men equal," then helped to prove then But are they equal? Are they free? And what is freedom, pray. When some men's souls are scarce their own in this free land toc So I wonder if Abe Lincoln wouldn't like to just step down To earth, and count as nothing the loss of golden crown. Just to show an arming people what he meant when once he said "Equality for each one," be he black or white or red. Yes, his heart must ache, and grieving must fill his soul to see How they've abused his message since the days of '83. But patience, men, truth crushed to earth will surely rise again And never an thing worth while was won, except through pain. There's Someone who is watching; there's Someone taking toil; And every unjust deed will reap, some day, a white man's soul. Abe Lincoln yet will see his words respected and fulfilled.
