Supreme Lodge Opens Nineteenth Biennial Session in Mound City
By M. Latchman, Chicago Defender Correspondent
St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 17.—This old town has gone mad; everybody is raving crazy to get into the midst of next west activities, which will entitle activities in the United States along similar lines by any organization. From all sides come reports of early arrivals who want to see things from start to finish, and then to enjoy them the bright lights of as live a city as there is in the country. I found one party of ladies who came to the city two weeks in advance; they then went to the convention them, all they knew about St. Louis was the convention of the Supreme Lodge K. of P. and the ninth encampment of the uniform rank department. The group was gatherings of the order, but were stuplied with the elaborate preparations which they saw in evidence on all sides. I attended a get-together meeting at the Pythian Temple 3137 Pine street, Friday night, and if there was any truth in the expressions given by certain officers and members, the Boatman bank here the committee the money on deposit is in position to have quite a quantity of Liberty Bonds as result of Pythian funds which they were working for some ambitious and ambitious to take away from this city prizes.
Mound City company drilled Friday night just prior to the meeting at headquarters, and their work was a resolution of the time proved 100 per cent over the last time, and Captain Shackelford is working them hard every evening. He is not one of those men who holds his competitions of cheap bureaus all the countries, but a city bound services at the First Baptist church.
The men who compose the committee which is handling this entertainment are: Hens. Wm. Oshorne, Wm. Wm. Oshorne, Wm. Shackelford, Capt. Morgan, Harry Arnold, Frank J. Brown, Mrs. Hattie M. Fowler, Mrs. Julia Graves, Mrs. Ida E. Prince and Mrs. Bette Earnest. Prominent among the ladies identified with the committee is Mrs. Fowler for the Supreme Court of Calanthe, which meets at the same time, are diademas Bertha Buckner. grand worthy councillor; Zenobia Williams, grand secretary; and Mrs. Fannie Schafferd, secretary of the endowment department.

Va.; First Brigade Band of Pittsburg, Pa.; Ninth Battalion Band of Columbus, Ohio; First Regiment Band of Omaha; First Regiment Band of Buxton, Iowa; First Regiment Band of St. Louis; Georgia Drum and Bugle Corps from Atlanta; this drum corps is one of the best uniformed organizations in the country and are all expert musicians.

Open carriages, bearing members of the Gallilee Fishermen's Society, Red Caps from the Grand Lodge, representatives of other organizations.
The route continued south on Lenox avenue to 135th street, where stands the occupants of both these buildings came outside and stood at attention. The procession moved west on 135th, putting the station and received similar relief from the avenue to 134th street, east to 7th avenue, to 132d street, where it temporarily disbanded at the huge and magnificent church was by card only. "Squads of police were necessary to handle the thousands along the route, and espouse the streets adjacent to the church.
Rev. R. R. Cooper, Rev. Bolden Bishop and Wilson met the coffin at the church where the opened "Asleep in Jesus" was made. The mother of Holmes, who is blind, became hysterical, but recovered before the close of the services.
The Police Quartet Brings Many Tears
The police quartet (white) added impressiveness to the services by singing Lead Kindly Light," and Neater Myer Called her "Impressively" by Rev. R. R. Cooper, pastor of the church. Commissioner Woods and others spoke and rendered several selections of music. Afterwards the procession proceeded to 11th Street, to the concert on 12th Street, side L. I.

If Major Moton had not already been elected, Thomas Tuskegee there would be great embarrassment letting any body over him. The only chance to elect a Race man would be through the University.

Three meetings' were held, all for Hampton Institute. The famous Hampton quartette accompanied the orator. The opening meeting at Mohonk was attended by the entire colony, while the house and Wildermore were overcrowded. Using for a text [the recent death of Principal. Fressell, who was to have spoken, with him, Col. Simmons made the presentation to the idea that created Hampton and taught a Race how to set itself free.

SLAYER OF GOTHAM POLICEMAN CAPTURED
New York, Aug. 17.—The mystery surrounding the murder of
Policeman Robert H. Holmes last week on W. 138th street, was cleared
up Monday by the finding of a lost hat.
Walter Hill of Stamford, Conn., when shown the hat in the office
of Assistant District Attorney John T. Joyce, broke down and con-
fessed. In his statement, he said: "It was I who fired the shot which
killed Holmes."
The only clue the police had to work on after the murder, was a
brown soft hat found near the scene after the assassin had made a
quick and safe get-away out of Harlem over the Madison avenue bridge.
Detectives Conkling, Buckley and Miller and Captain McKenna, with
the hat as a clue, started out to locate the owner. He was found out by
learning from the store where the hat was first bought that it was
sold to a charge customer, Harold T. Avery of 131 Riverside Drive.
He said that he had lost the hat while motoring through Stamford,
Conn., in April. At Stamford the detectives learned that the hat had
been picked up by Edward Fairchild, who also worked in the stable of
Robert Anthony, a furniture dealer on Main street. Fairchild
sold the hat to Walter Hill, who also worked for Mr. Anthony. Hill
denied purchasing the hat, and insisted that he had not been in New
York recently, but evidence was secured that he was not in Stamford
on the night of the shooting. He denied having any knowledge of the
affair until he was brought to New York and confronted with Mr. Avery's
hat. He then stated that he had lived with Cora Green in Stamford,
but that she had left him after a quarrel three weeks ago. He had learned
that she was living in the basement of 69 W. 138th street, and went to
the house, where he became angered at the sight of a man, and started
shooting at the window. "Afterward, I had a quarrel with a policeman,"
he added.
Miss Arlean McCracken, aged 23, daughter of Rev, and Mrs.-N. J. McCracken, 3235 Vernon avenue, was struck by a runaway horse, run over and almost instantly killed on Saturday at 12:30 p. m. at the corner of 32d and Cottage Grove avenue. The injured woman died Monday morning

He said he was a stillman in the etherium where the still often obscured monometer were on the inside. He said he had just been inside one cleaning it out, where the thermometer registered 125 degrees, and even that was considered cool, why he hadn't been standing coastal during the conversation, must have decided that it was too hot, and was also observed to put on his coat again and move away.

The St. Louis bands also will be much in evidence.
Many Decorations
Early this week the decorators got busy on the streets running from the Pythian Temple on Pine street, where the sessions will be held, to the camp grounds. Pine is a cool, sandy place with decorations interspersed with large Pythian and American flags, and the thoroughfare is illuminated as bright as day with a shadeade. In the front of the entrance of the camp, which is known as Camp General E. B. F. Johnson, is a large arch according welcome to all visitors and friends. A car lead tent and other encampment facilities are in the grounds early in week and placed in order under the supervision of Brigadier General Wm. H. Butler. Members of the uniform department are going to for several days getting things in shape, and as the early arrivals reach the grounds, they have nothing to do but make use of the accommodations which are as near the retreat as it is possible to make them.
The Week's Program
Go Into Camp Early
Wednesday General Jackson of Chicago and General Fowler arrived in the city and joined many of St. Louis' uniform men in camp. General Butler went into camp the same day. They evidently want to become accustomed to the place before the men of the ranks arrive. The camp site could be convenient to the sessions of both lodge and the supreme court of Calanthe. Many of the brothers will attend both these conventions. In addition to this, at the week's festivities the officers of the lodge and the supreme court of the city, that there is no doubt but that it will be in easy walking distance for the many thousands of visitors who are expected, the large business, and fraternity life of St. Louis is within hauling distance of Camp General E. B. F. Johnson.
St. Louis Companies in Camp
Under general order No. 5 the brigade staff, resimental staff, the band and companies A. B. C. D. F and troop A first cavalry of the first regiment of Missouri meet at their armory, August 18, at 4 o'clock, and tomorrow, August 18, at 4 o'clock, and on the morning. E. B. F. Johnson for military duty. The second regiment and band of Kansas City under the command of the brigade will arrive over the Missouri Pacific morning. The brigade headquarters of Missouri were established at the camp grounds Wednesday and two men from each of the St. Louis companies were present to each over the property which will be used by the visitors all next week.
Parades Will Feature
A Proposal of Peace
The grand lodge of Missouri is out with a circular proposing peace in the Virginia case. It is not known how far the peace advocates will go and.
as that part of it is a fraternal mutual as not my intention to speculate as has been hanging in some of the cases and will occupy some of the attention of the supreme lodge; friends of the order and the excellent gentleman in charge; see the thing amicably adjusted without further ailing in the courts. The expense attached to the matter is contained this year. The signers to the circular which the grand lodge has issued are, A. W. Lloyd, grand chancelor, A. W. Lloyd, grand f. Gordon, and C. K. Robinson, supreme representative from Missouri.
Chicago to Get Reception
The Chicago delegation is expected in the city Sunday morning over the Alton" about 7 a.m., and the St. Louis team will be in out force, headed by a band to "show" them as only Missourians can show them, how free the hospitality of the city is at all times. Captain John C. Mills will be great big smile, and Colonial Charley Mills will be on hand with courtesies for all the Sir Knights and so will it be all down the line. Chicago occupies all of St. Louis, not because of all St. Louisans, not because of Chicago, but because of the friendly rivalry between the two cities.
Officers Will Probably Be Re-Elected Unanimously
So far as there are any surface indications, the officers of the supreme lodge, succeed themselves, when they come together, when they meet another two years. It is recognized by the fraternity that it would be a very difficult matter to make any imputation of the staff. I have been unable to unearth any indication of any aspirant for a place who would have a possible chance of success. The incumbents are all worthy of the utmost confidence of the members of the order and have given general sat-
Ladies Doing Their Share
The supreme court of Calanthe will depend to a large extent on the work of the court ladies of this city. They will be given much credit for their work and enthusiasm as the men. Their committee meets every Wednesday night and many of the court's members, which are made up of boys and girls.
Press Given Every Courtesy
The Defender has the assurance that the court will have every courtesy during the convention, with the information bureau, there will be room for the representatives of the press, and probably, the papers have representatives here, will be given a place where there is room enough to keep them on sale so the Sr. Knights may read and see themselves, this must be given to the general committee, and next week the Defender will carry the story as it is known to the happenings on the field, at Camp Robinson and around the Python Temple.

company. The Moll's trio opened the bill and proved to be a clever lot at hand balancing, contortions and flying traps. They did well, and the comedian was a hit all through the act. Jinks and Allen, a male and female rube team, were clever in the extreme and had the house in an uproar with their characterizations; their makeup was as clever as their chatter. Ed and Jack Smith, a pair of the best soft shoe dancers that ever rattled a Douglas on the Grand boards, shuffled their way into a deal of popularity, aided and abetted by some fair singing and new talk.
The first half of the present week has a wide variety, opening with a clever team of bar artists and posers, who work in sailor uniforms and who present many things out of the ordinary. Howe and Howe, a pair of clever acrobatic dancers, did well and took several real nods at their finish, and the Columbia Four, an Ofay quartet, put their stuff over in the most approved fashion. Billy King and company put on a real drama, called The Strife, and it was full of thrills, action and these situations. It dealt with labor conditions and capital, with a little love story, with a little comedy and a lot of villain rumbling through it. Howard Kelly as the Steel King had a great chance to show his

Billy King & Co. in a Screaming Farce; Good Bills at Monogram and Owl
"Lack.of competition is one reason why the man who minds his own business succeeds."
"Ralding a Cabaret" was the title of a screaming farce put on by Billy King and his incomparables the last
half of the past week. It was novel, speedy and entertaining, and there wasn't a duo beginning to end. The setting exhibited the well known cabaret interior with everything that goes with it. The entertainment and dialogue were goo-merly until a copper showed up at the back door. Table cloths were then raised and hanging from the edge
M.
of each table was a Sunday school motto, and Billy King, who was enacting the part of the waiter, transformed himself into a minister and continued exhortations during the stay of the minion of the law, who later went away satisfied. The piece was written around the team of Gates and Davis, who did their act, which was more than half deceased the singing and dancing of Gates on the comedy and playing of Davis on the saxophone far above the average. There were several song numbers put over by the company, chief among which were "The Cabaret Glide," Gertrude Saunders and company; "Luella Lee," by Everett Butler; "Martini Cocktail" by India Allen and chorus; "Good Bye," by Ernest Whitman, and "Oversteer's Jass Dance," by Georgia Kelly and

dramatic ability and he made the most of it, his work standing out. The characters of Bill Anthony, union man, as played by Leon Rooks; Charles Henry, Mechanic, by Ernest Whitman; Mother Grundy, by Margaret Jackson; Nellie Anthony, by Gertrude Saunders, and Maud Sifton, adventures, by Bessie Brown, were all splendidly done. Billy King as Pete, the all-around man, was the usual scream at every performance, and taking it one side and down, the other, it proved to be good play, will acted and well liked. One song was played during the course of the play, "The World Will Be Jealous of Me," by Everett Butler, and it was given a real mitt.
AT THE MONOGRAM
The Drake-Walker company, booked as the Bombay Girls, is the attraction this week; it is a company of seventeen talented people and they are qualified, as a whole, for the high praises which preceded them here. Indeed, there never has been a company
seen here which has such a diversified lot of talent. They are offering the big thing. in entertainment today, a musical and song review, and the manner in which number after number is done is a revelation. Drake and Bafley are the two principal comedians, and they had everyone with them on Monday night. The work of Russell Lee, doing straight, is way above the average. Ethel Walker is a real soubrette with plenty of class and pep, and Willie Hampton, the prima donna, simply has no voice that she knows how to say. The company captures their own jazz band and orchestra, and give a free concert in front of the theater every evening before the first performance. They will remain two weeks, with complete change of routine next Monday night.
AT THE OWL
Gates and Gates, one of the best acts in vaudeville, is the feature here this week and the work offered by them is a hit from start to finish; primarily it might be classed as a singing, dances and talking act, but one of the most iconically well-known musical instruments, exciting much hand for his proficiency. It is a good act and went well all through. Mattle Edwards was the special for

Last week the Eighth regiment armor was a busy place, when shoes and uniforms were worn, and were a few sad faces when some of the sizes didn't fit, and the boys had to go. Sunday morning the union musicians marched over to the armory and got the band, taking them to the musician's hall, number 383. State street, and the band felt you feel the band attended the game. Sunday great throngs were attracted to the busy showing windows through the pany rooms and how the boys were fed. Sunday was field day, and the catholic regiment was over to see the big doings. Sam Ransom deserves to be given much credit for the way things came out in such a short time. Benito Lee worked in the box office.

Phyllis·Wheatley Benefit Ball Game Huge Success
By the Girl Reporter
The benefit baseball game for the Babe Ruth home was too good success in the home the team was too good success in the baseball game was more than good and the fans as well as the ladies (many of whom did not understand that they were more than able to see the American Giants win) final score was 7 to 0. Redding, the star pitcher of Mr. Foster's club, twirled against String Bean Williams men couldn't beat at least that is what the sporting editor told me was the trouble. Anyway the way those Giants slammed the ball and ran around the tag was used to do when we played out of the visiting men.
Mr. Taylor was kind, for he didn't say much, only smiled and said nothing. Lots of managers would have gotten it, but Mr. Taylor game didn't amount to half as much as the proceeds and they were good. Young girls in their teens sold all kinds of goodies, and there were prods, toys, and games. Porter, who had charge of the arrangements, worked hard, as did her corps of assistants. Mrs. Macon, Mrs. Johnson, Mrs. Lawrence and Mrs. Johnson, assisted in the box office selling tickets.

MRS. EMMA SMITH
President and Founder of the Woman's Mayflower Club
April 19, 1916, she summoned a few women, not men, together at her home to discuss and pray over the proposition—all at once, as if inspired by the Holy Ghost—she sprang to her feet and said: "We'll organize and save the balance of our women."
When and there she was made president, or captain, and, thus was the launch of the woman's Mayflower Club—named from the stoning, sturdy ship which janded the Pilgrims safely on American soil after many weeks on the bolsterous ocean.
"We began with nine members and as many dollars. Unlike the good old Mayflower of Prilgrim days, which did not stop until it reached its journeys end—all of its officers being men our ship's names from stem to stem by women. We pull into port the first and third Mondays of each month and take on new passengers.
"After one year's sailing, we have enrolled 343 members, paid $242 for sick dues and have to our credit
sick dues and have to our credit
Unfortunately, three of our sisters were away within the first ten months. But we are
God's work. The Woman's Mayflower
Club not only takes care of its sick
and buries its dead, but it teaches us
to be broader, kinder and forgiving in
lengths and actions toward each other and all that about us. We realize that our paths
will not always be strewn with roses,
but let us practice the precepts of
Christ when fallen Mary bated His
hair. He baked and dried them with her
hair. He baked and dried them, because
she had sinned—billed her up, encouraged her and told her to sin no
more.
"We are taught by this to take every
sister by the hand and help to make
the paths bright by our acts of kindness and our burds of kindness, remembering the words,
Savior: 'Love ye one another as I
love you.' Women will do this?
"In conclusion. We cannot permit
this first anniversary to pass without a direct expression of our esteem and appreciation of our great organizer and leader of this club.
"Worthy leader, the name of your friends is legion. It gives me intense pleasure to participate in doing good so admirable an officer, so good a man so noble and a lady; one who has so just elevated herself in the opinions and good wishes of all who know her.
"Worthy captain, I could talk a long hour concerning you and your virtues you do not wish so much to address you as a leader, but as our highly esteemed friend, we have very much tried friend; for, often have we tried your temper and forbearance? While my few remarks have no intrinsic value, yet, an expression of love, gratitude and respect affords the whole. We have now but to whisper to our evident health, happiness and prosperity, and as it pleases the All Just and Bountiful Creator to spare your useful life."

Team
The American Giants will leave Saturday for Indianapolis, where they will engage in a series of games with C. I. Taylor's A. B. Cs. in that city. This year the Giants have an awful lead on the Taylorites, despite the fact that the two teams have clashed just twenty times. Taylor has been able to pull off a win over the Cleveland Cavaliers thirteen. Two of the games have resulted in a tie. One game of the Indianapolis manager's manlays, will have second game with Williams in the first. The New Yorker baffled the Giants with a game here, but on Friday the Chicago Browns to him for seven runs in one inning. Taylor is banking on him to take the big game, expected as there is great rivalry between the two teams. Furthermore no better or more converse game can put ut than when these two teams face off.

During the Giants' absence the Cuban Stars will play at the Thirteenth street grounds, having as their opponents the crack Fisk Tire Co. nine

Defeats Padron in Hot Pitchers' Battle
Schorling's Park, Sunday Afternoon.
"It was a pitcher's battle and was a big league game with all that goes in there," he said, adding for dessert. Tom Williams of Morris Brown university fame was on the mound for Rube, and Padron worked for the Cubans. Williams had the best argument holding the slugging island in the game of which was a home run by Guerra. This lad could have been caught at the plate had the relay from Hill to Lloyd to Dixon went straight, but it was a hard one. The Padron had to pass first base and one of the four to reach there. One man arrived on a pass and the other on Grant's error in the ninth. The Giants scored all of their points in a frame. A couple of desperate tries were nicked by perfect throw by Baro. Williams had everything on the ball that could be put on it, curve, drop, spike fast, floater and some we didn't know. The Padron doubled plays and after it was all over the crowd went home to supper as the man outside yelled, "double jointed, knock-kneed, jumbo peanuts?" and threatened weather keeping down.
Jiminez rolled to Francis and was thrown out at first; Baro was out to second and was thrown over second for a single and Rodriélquez fanned. Giants: Barber filed to hit and run play Hill singled to on hit and run play Hill singled to on hit and DeMoss pulled up at third; Lloyd

IT DIDN'T WORK
CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS STREET
Philadelphia, Pa. Aug. 17—William Smith, at the Eighth and Jefferson high schools, wanted to go to war, that he was a militia member of the gospel and that, combined with a army arm, ought to exempt him. When he asked, he refused to tell. He said that his right arm could not be lifted above the level shoulder, because of a shot wound. He asked the doctor, convinced that the man was not telling the truth, grasped the man's hand, raised the man's hand, proving that the effective "arm was as good as the other."

WHERE, IF NOT AT THE SEAT of our government, may citizens
look for the upholding of the laws and provisions stipulated in the
constitution of the United States? That the basic laws upon which
this country is supposed to rest are ruthlessly broken is an undisputable
fact, It is the boast that this is a FREE land; that every man, woman
and child, of whatever race, creed or color, has an even break with
every other man, woman and. child—but do they? Theory is one
thing—practice another. There is no gainsaying the fact that the
laws, as written on our statute books, are as near just and perfect as
man can make them, and if carried out to the letter, would make this
an ideal government. That word “free,” which crops up so often, seems
to entitle, not only the riff-raff element among us, but our highest
officials, to put their own construction of the laws into effect, with the
result that, instead of our having a democracy, we have an oligarchy.
. When mob rule takes the place of taw and order, when our offi-
cials, who are sworn to uphold the constitution of these United States,
permit themselves for party reasons—or through prejudice—to be
false to their trust, it is high time for those who do stand for right and
justice to swing the political ax and relegate these misfits into the
“has been” class. Here we are making more noise and fuss about the
injustice done Belgium, for instance, than all of the other Allies put
together. We squeel like a stuck pig about the treatment accorded the
Armenians by the Turks, Whenever and wherever man, bird or
beast is mistreated—OUTSIDE OF OUR OWN COUNTRY—our voice
goes up in protest and our money flows to alleviate the suffering—pro-
vided enough publicity is given our donations, ,
The status of our people in this country is very much belo par;
our stock slumped materially when the present administration went into
power, The Democratic party has not only proven itself to be our
bitterest enemy, but slumbering in the breast of those who fought the|
losing cause and rising to the surface every now and then, is that:
feeling of hatred for the northern white man and the laws that he made.
From these people who are now “in the saddle” at Washington what
can be expected? To the victor belongs the spoils,” is an adage
they are carrying out to the letter. The north is feebly protesting; the
scotteiéets not the protests but goes merrily on, changing order into
chaos, much as a bull would upset a china shop. This condition of
affairs will last only till the white north, augmented by the black south
and north, again rise in their might, let us hope, politically, and send
these despoilers back into oblivion, |
No bird flies so high but what it is compelled to come down to
soost. The votes of the people will again be sought by many who have
used a public office for private gain, and when the votes are counted
they will find themselves outside the pale of public approval, Bringing
the matter right home to our own door, it can safely bo said, that never
in the history of this country have so many indignitics been heaped
upon our people as during the present administration, and when a
reason for this condition is sought, it is discovered that the south is
in the saddle and riding the government horse at a pace that appears
to spell dissension again between the two sections of this country. We!
are playing the part of the under-dog, as usual, Whether “im Crow-
ism" and segregation come as an official order, with the seal and sig-
nature of a high official affixed, or is simply handed on: by word a
mouth, matters little, as the result is the same in both cases. An exe!
_ pert at solving riddles would be stumped to fathom out why at this
particular time, when the country sorely needs every loyal citizen, one-
tenth of the population is insulted and made to feel that they are less
than parasites, when in reality they are the backbone and sinew of
America’s industrial world.
Is it because we are forging ahead too fast in every line of en-
deavor, and by so doing are showing up the defects of the superior (?)
race? Leaving our own welfare out of the question is it better for this
