Chicago Defender

SHOOTING IN MECCA FLATS WOMAN DEAD, MAN WOUNDED St. Louis Is Taken by Pythian Hosts EXTRA National Encampment of the Supreme Lodge and the Supreme Court Attracts Throngs of Persons Chicago Defender Correspondent St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 24—Following the information given by the Chicago Defender last week, this city began to assume a military appearance Sunday, with the arrival of the Chicago delegation of Pythians, headed by the Uniformed Rank Companies and the First Regi- ment Band of 60 pieces. The Windy City crowd came in 400 strong over the "Alton" promptly at 7 a.m. ,and was met with a great re- ception. St. Louis uniformed compa- nies tuned their en masse, headed by the First Regi- ment Band of J. M. BATCHMAN 1 Missouri. The citizens of the city showed their appreciation of the esteem in which their guests are held in certain times during the streets around Union Station for the time scheduled for the train, and many picked out friends whom they hoped to give their first view of gorgeously decorated Market street from the luxurious seat of some automobile, to see how hard the forking and Chicago was made, and time during their present short stay. In the Chicago crowd were Major Carter H. Hays, Lieut. F. E. Burroughs, adjunct; Lieut. A. S. Kiel, M.I. Sergean; Wathan sergean, marshal; Prof. Sartart, who leads the First Regiment Band of 60 pieces. The officers named belong to the second battalion. The first battalion was represented by Glen. Samuel W. Jones and Adjutant Gebrege Harris; the third battalion, Sergeant James Rymen, was in command of Major Vanis and Captain Floyd F. Turner. These men with others helped make up a Chicago delegation of 400 and had a special train of eleven coaches. The Tented City Sunday afternoon and night thousands of visitors and people of the city crowded the camp grounds at Compton and Market, fraternizing and meeting newcomers whom they hoped to show what real Missouri hospitality means. Pretty young ladies were on hand giving the boys in khaki and the maturer their pleased smile which Cupid is wont to draw from those who have experienced his shafts, while gallant gentlemen of the city willingly stepped aside for the time being, that good cheer might abound for the stranger within the gates. Camp E. B. F. Johnson is a thing of the city containing close to 300 tents and giving ample room for every chivalrous knight to enjoy to the fullest extent the many courtesies provided. These tents are arranged in streets, with the headquarters of each state in a convenient location, and quite properly the St. Louis companies have taken the least advantageous course. Many of the boys have shown that they were not novices at camp life; they have installed many luxuries. I saw one Cincinnati crowd placing a S. W. GREEN Supreme Chancellor of Knights of Pythias of the World blue painted floor in their tent; others had rugs. There was an occasional bed, pictures hung on the walls and many attempts were made to beautify these temporary homes, and reminds one of what the poor fellows in France owed to try to bring "Home, Sweet Home" to many of the men brought their wives on. This was especially true of the officers, and these ladies added their bit toward making their better halves comfortable for the week they will be under the watchful eye of Gen. R. R. Jackson, who, while one of the best bowls to ever drew breath, is on one of the most such a soldier and believes it is for the good of the order that the strictest military discipline should prevail. At Camp Headquarters Gen. Jackson's headquarters, which are located in the center on the west side of the ground, is the first stopping place for most of the prominent Pythians who arrive, because they love their general and never allow an opportunity to pass without showing their aptitude of leadership. Since he has had charge of the Unified Rank Department it has changed from an "excuse" to one of the vital and most attractive features of the Pythian organization. Roughly, including the state of Virginia which experienced its strength under his leadership, there were 18 K. companies, 48 cadet companies, 35 Calanthian drill corps and one veteran corps, with about 100 others which sometimes fall to report. To accomplish such a work in the face of the accusation made against the Race that they were accused of dueling only to strong leaders, masters, such as the "Little Giant" is. Gen. Jackson arrived Wednesday in his seven passenger touring car, accompanied M. B. by Mrs. Jackson, his daughter, Miss Naomi; Miss Gonzelle Porter, of 3653 Forest avenue, Chicago; his chauffeur and valet. The young ladies are enjoying the outing and making it complete by camping on the grounds. Hospital and Guard House The camp hospital had one early victim about 6:30 Sunday afternoon in the person of Major W. J. Weatherits of Chancellor Company No. 3 of India, who was severely strain occasioned by the strenuous labors of camp life, aided by his advanced years. The guard house, which is usually the occasion for much jesting when it catches some unfortunate victim, was a deserted place for the Pythian soldier, the excellent self-control of which the Pythian soldier boys are possessed. THE INFORMATION AND PRESS BUREAU The Information Bureau, in charges of Col. Charles Mills, the little man with the biggest burden this week, and Hon. William H. Buckner, is located just inside the main entrance, and connected with it is the Press Bureau, which is installed in solicitation of the Defender, and where W. S. Fearance can be seen every day with a supply of Defenders for all who wish them. The bureau is equipped with phone service, a typewriter and every facility for visitors every time the press, Visitors register here and the gatherers visit it frequently. The St. Louis committee deserves great credit THE MARITIME MARINES for the completeness of every arrangement down to the smallest detail. REFRESHMENTS AND AMUSEMENTS The grounds are supplied with every wholesome amusement device and harmless refreshments. No intoxicants are allowed. Such drinks as "Bevo" and "Cerve" are all that are used: cigars, watermelon, lemonade, ice cream, apoptosis are on hand, of the to appease the appetites of the most ravenous abound: if one wants to ride, the merry-go-round is on hand, and for a test of strength the striking machine, man will accommodate all for a nickel. The Bookor Washington Theater on Market street, under the ever-watchful eye of Charley Turpin, shows its consideration for the importance of the week's festivities by showing during the entire week, moving pictures of the Eighteenth National Encampment at Columbus, including drills, arm scenes and its street parade. The pictures are shown at the motions in connection with six reels, giving the beautiful story of the Pythian legend, "Damon and Rythas." The house has been crowded all the week. His feature pictures is a close-up view of Major Goren, R. R. Jackson, whom all concede is one of the biggest men of the Race in America today. eral's staff; Colonel H. P. Butler, Orangeburg, S.

Clay Haley; response, Mrs. Tuthi H. Lyscher, S. C.; welcome on behalf of the Wylde Law School, Knox, K. C.; response, Major Gen. R. R. Jackson. A number of distinguished visitors were introduced and the large crowd which tried to witness the reception overflowed the entrances and blocked all attempts to enter or leave the auditorium, regardless of the inclement weather. The good crowds were but for runners of what happened in the days following. The city has been full of people who have come from all parts of the country and the native St. Louisans are as full of it over what is taking place, as though they did not know that this is the second time the metropolis of the Mississippi Valley has entertained so distinguished a gathering. Little boys have the fever, the girls have it; old men and women have it in the more advanced stages and the malady seems highly infectious; so much so, the local committee is highly clated over the crowds which are attending the entertainments that are in any way contributing toward the financial as well as social success of the week. THE MARDI GRAS PARADE AUDITING COMMITTEE BEGINS EARLY The auditing committee of the Supreme Lodge arrived the first part-of last week and settled down to work immediately in a room at the Pythian Temple on Five street. The committee is composed of Dr. J. P. Crawford, grand chancellor of Tennessee; Gen. F. N. Cohen, supreme representative of Georgia, Savannah, Ga.; Gen. Cohen is a member of the major gen- MAJ. GEN.

Shackelford MRS. MARTHA BUCKNER Grand Warranty Counsellor, Courts of California of New Orleans. This young man is Supreme Changleng, S. W. Green. EARLY ARRIVALS Among the early arrivals were the noted General Joseph L. Jones of Cincinnati. Mr. Jones has for a number of years been the supreme vice chancellor and Supreme K. of K. & S.; Dr. Underwood of Frankfort, Ky.; Professor G. R. Hutton, A.

OPENING CEREMONIES The exercises Sunday morning grounds were exactly as announced they would be in last week's Defender. The public reception was held Monday night at the Central Baptist Church, Ewing and Washington avenues, with Chancellor, Hon. S. W. Green of New Orleans, master of ceremonies. The following program was carried out: Music by the choir; invocation, Dr. B. G. Shaw of the Washington Church; Music by the Zilizi Church; music, choir; "Welcome to the City," Mayor Henry W.

Jackson. A number of distinguished visitors were introduced and the large crowd which tried to witness the reception overflowed the entrances and on behalf of the temple enter or leave the auditorium, regardless of the element weather. The early week crowds were but for runners of what has happened in the days following. The city has been full of people who come from all parts of the country and the city has been full of life over what is taking place, as though they did not know that this is the second time the metropolis of the Mississippi Valley has maintained so distinguished a gathering like no other over the girls have it; old men and have it in the more advanced stages and the malady seems highly infectious; so much so, the local committee is highly clated over the crowds and is founding the entertainments that are way contributing toward the financial as well as social success of the week. THE MARDI GRAS PARADE If the poets could paint in horrid colors the tenants of the lower region or in their fancy picture the purity and beauty of things celestial, the Knights of Pythias must have some of the most spare. The costuming Tuesday night is a creative order and in many instances gorgeous as often as others were hideous. This is the second time the organization has put on the Mardi Gras costume Columbus say the effort made Tuesday night, the attempt of two years ago. Some of these costumes were too ludicrous for description; they ran the whole W. E. OSBORNE General Secretary, Supreme Lodge Entertainment Committee FINAL EDITION Military Ball and Mardi-Gras Parade Popular Features; Entertainments Are Given Numerously gaunt of human ingenuity and would rack the brain of the most resourceful designer. The parade left the camp ground and after traversing Teresa, Lawton, and Compton went down Morgan to Twelfth, thence to Chestnut and following the line of march as previously published, was viewed the whole distance by a solid mass of people from sidewalks, windows and other points of vantage. It is estimated that more than 300,000 people viewed the line as it wound its way through the streets back to the camp ground. The reviewing stand was occupied by many noted men of the order and Court of Calanthe. At the same time the St. Louis courts gave a reception for the visiting ladies. Madam Moton's School of Expression furnished the entertainment for the evening out of courtesy for the Pythian Sisters, under the leadership of a committee headed by Mrs. Bertha Buckner, G. W. C. of Missouri. The Pythian auditorium was beautiful, amusing and the picture presented by the intellectual gathering and beautiful gowning was something worth seeing. PYTHIANS STRONG The history of the Knights of Pythias dates back to the organization of Lightfoot Lodge, No. 1, in the city of Vicksburg, Miss., March 26, 1880, with James Blackman, C. C. The first grand lodge was organized April 17 of the same year, with T. W. Stringer, G. C. In the thirty-seven years the order has reached a strength of approximately 4,000 lodges, 125,000 members, $1,500,000 in resources and $1,000,000 in property belonging to the lodge. It has the strongest fraternity features consistent with safety of any organization of the Race, and has for its leaders the recognized brains of the WM. W. BUCKNER General Chairman Supreme Lodge Entertainment Committee Negro. Pythianism has become synon- omous with progress, big undertakings, responsibilities and successful prosecution of the objective. Such build- ings as the Pythian building at Ward and State in Chicago, the Temple at Birmingham, the Sanitarium and Bath Temple in this city, will stand for years as representing the business ability of a people enjoying only a few short years of freedom of opportu- nity. THE MILITARY BALL St. Louis has attended many gatherings of Colored people in the famous Coliseum building on Washington, Jefferson and Locusts streets, but it remained for the Knights of Pythias to put the largest crowd of people in structure. Here Ringling Brothers have held the gates and ginger gings have held the boards; the house seats 12,000 people, but she was as full of as good looking a crowd of men and women as it is possible to find in any equal territory on the face of the globe. Gowns, gowns galore, low-necked, high-necked, medium; suits, dresses and just dresses; manners, all styles and a shirley-cobbled deported people were in reality representative of freedom of thought and action. There was no conventionality, no formality; every person in the vast assemblage went to the ball to see, dance if he or she felt like it, and enlisted a sightful strains of music from the instrumentation and the engagement band of Illinois, which furnished music for all entertainments. On the door was Col. Wm) E. Mack, better known as "Sonny Mack," with his generous and courteous smile and a physique sufficiently strong to con- PRICE 5 CENTS and Mardi-Gras lar Features; ments Are merously vince all that there was a real live man on the door. The grand military parade, which is the undoubted feature of the display end of the week's entertainment will take place this morning and be witnessed by thousands of all kinds and colors of St. Louisans. The parade will be headed by mounted police and will wend its way through the heart of the downtown business section. Fourteen years ago it was conceded to be one of the biggest things of the time and had ever been seen in this city. This year the eclipse all previous efforts. There was a feeling that the fact that the War Department forced secret organizations to abandon the use of the regulation uniform would hurt the encampment and that the ones own an appreciable effect or lessened an advantage below what was expected by the local committee. Ten thousand mats are going in the parade this morning and every one will be there. The uniforms they year are as good and as they were forced to discard as they were working some financial hardship no damage was done. The prize drills will be held tonight at the Coliseum, when $5,000 in prizes will be given away. St. Louis crack combo will be given away. St. Louis end of it. Louis end of it. They have in reputation well worth preserving, and under that efficient and most worthy expert and drill master, Captain J. A. Shackelford, the Mound City will give a good account of herself. The parade this week will be a good line on the various bands which have been furnishing the music at the camp during the week. PYTHIAN PERSONALS Hon. L. B.

The with blood, with a bullet wound in his right temple, and carrying a revolver in his hand, saying, "She shot my leg and was killed." The news of the gun from the wounded was later turned over to the police, and then telephoned for assistance. George Ridley, who occupies the apartment of the man at Mrs. Rand, another witness in the case said he had the woman come out of her rooms and slam the door and then hesitate, as if looking for a key the Lady roomer, he�ed, fretting to Miss Green, how he was produced in the key and gave to Mrs. Bland. Three minutes later, Burton is alleged to have entered the same apartment, and immediately after the gun is shooting occurred. Here the testimony of the� is made, the difference, as Miss Green says who was in apartment just as Mrs. Bland and her supposed flance entered, while the goes-examination of Ridley contrasts the case. The information is also given by the doctor, the shooting Ridley observed. But, on come from the flat covered with blood, and he and Miss Green up nourishing into the room, found Mrs. Bland in the bedroom behind the bed with bullet wound in her left shoulder blade. Burton Testifica The cross-examination of Lleutenant Malley of the Stanton avenue station on the floor of Jackson's undertaking patrons fumbled the testimony that on reaching the apartment they found the body of a man who was lying in the bed, and the general appearance of the flat was very disordered, showing signs of a hard fight, as the furniture was disorganized, the furniture and Burton's torn picture was messy and about the floor. At this point Burton was called to testify, what is your name? A—Charles Burton. Q—Where do you live? A—860 La Salle Q—Your occupation is what? A—My occupation is an usher at the Northwestern university you work days? Here the prisoner described the nature of his work and hours. Did you work yesterday? A—I am on a vacation.

Q.—Were you her sweetheart? A.—Yes, sir. Q.—Do you intend to marry her? A.—Yes, sir. Q.—Are you married? A.Yes, sir. Q.—Did she ever have another husband? A.—I don't know. Q.—When did you go to the apartment? A. I went there at 6 yesterday morning. Q.—Was she up? A. No, sir. B. How long did you stay? A. I don't know. Q. — Did you quarrel? A. Now, Mr. Green, he said. You did from that time on. — I left me to the friend, leaving a note saying that if a friend called tell him I am at the barber, I will go to the barber and found the note. She called me so, and the barber shop and said that she had a good time with me. Shortly she entered the room down beside me. While there waiting for the rain to cease she threatened to go to the barber, she was off and she promised not to quarrel. I started home about something to 4. Mar. I was a happy day, I did not have a day. I was a good man, and had two bottles of beer. She then wanted me to come to her apartment, and I had a little water to go home and feed my dog. I would see her at home, saying that I would go to her request, saying that I would go to the barber. I had a flat, and a one did so that was that the back and slammed the door. We had a long time to go to the barber, I was on. I went on to the room, and I went on out of the room, and I went into the back bed. I went on to the chiffonter in the dining room, where I knew she kept a revolver. I could have been on the door, but I was in the back room but, hearing that, I would shoot me in the back. I chose to go into the dining room and went to the barber. She had a hitting me in the right. I ample I chiched with her (the prisoner then) and the book place, and while engaged thus the person, I fired, which killed her. I don't know whether I fired the gun or she, as we went on to the door, and, picking it up, went outside, where I met Townsend, as shown to the barber, and friend of the room of Keywords called me to the The post-mortem examination of the woman showed that the bullet entered the right side. She and emerged at the right side. However, no doubt in the minds of the coroner's jury, as during the scuffle she could have fired the gun in this position, the bullet was exonerated. The jury decided the woman was accidentally killed. UNKNOWN MAN KILLED CIRCA 1980 DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE Reynolds, Ga. Aug. 24.

PAGE FOUR THE KIDNAPER "Lack of competition is one reason why the man who minds his own business succeeds." "The Kidnaper" was the offering of Billy King & Co. the first half of the week, and it was a riot from start to finish; in fact, it finish; in fact, the company has been seen to better advantage than in this farcecomedy, and the great Billy himself opposes the seldom offered, and it is a quiet comment to say that he took full advantage of them. Indeed, the world is the whole cast in "The Kidnaper" was right up to the high standard which has made this the most popular movie in the Tony Langston world. Only a couple of songs were sung, the big opening chorus putting on "I'm on the Jury" and "Lawful Wife" by Billy King and chorus by the crowd, capturing capacity crowds despite the warm weather, and the cooling system used by the Grand makes it the most comfortable place to spend a couple of hours. Next week will finish the King engagement with a the comedy acrobatic novelty that more than pleased: Vivian Earl presented a fine musical single and showed wonderful musery over the 'cello and violin. Night & Carlisle was the final act of as good a bill as would be possible to find anywhere. The last half last week had Bull Bear's Indians, a good novelty, in which the folks from the plains introduced lariat work, songs and Indian dances and a trombone solo by the chief himself, which surprised as well as pleased. The warrior, a clever character songstress, who did a male impersonation, and put over a "wop" song in a more than pleasing manner. Litt & Nolan, third on the bill, had a piano act that brought some clever talk, and some good playing and singing, chief among the latter being a "Bert Williams" by the male member of the team, the King & Dancer, of the Uncle's Daughter. "Had everybody howling before they realized what they were howling at, and the howling continued throughout with unabated vim and vigor. It was the medium of blockading traffic in front of the theater on several nights during the week, which is a wonderful thing, taking the weather conditions into consideration. Harrison Steele, for two, and Steven Monday, Sept. 3, and there are many of the very best acts booked for the Grand in the near future. AT THE MONOGRAM The Drake-Walker Players are on their second big week here, and are drawing as well and proving as popular as the front of the theater each show in proving popular, and the best part of it all is the fact that the band really plays. Seventeen people, all artists, are in the company, which is the largest and most versatileity enables a wide angle in the styles of entertainment offered. A great record has been made by the aggregation in other cities, and it seems if the reports on the company have all been good, the engagement ends on Sunday night. AT THE OWL Two headline acts are being used here the present week, Dewey, Terry & Dewey and Mitchell & Rector dividing the honors which go with a week stand. The latter is a sister team of class and great, ability, and their one and is exceedingly well dressed and fast. In fact, the girls don't allow an idle moment to creep into their class routine and the act goes right on through as well as ever. The trio is a good one and offers many things out of the ordinary, the work being good, ing, clever dancing and cleanome throughout. Pedriott, the Accordeonist, did well the first half, as did also the singing, talking and dancing act of Mulumbia & Musette. Among the feature pictures shown during the week were "The Roughneck" "Voice of the Circus" "The Circus of Life" "Neglected Wife" and "The Song of Siponex." On Sunday comes a big five-reel Blue Bird feature. WAY DOWN EAST New York, Aug. 23. Jimmy Marshall and Eddie Rector opened on the 29th on the United Time at Proctor's theater, Elizabeth, N. J.

PLAYS RETURN DATES Los Angeles, Cal., Aug. 24. — "The Law of Nature" and "The Trooper of Nature" each plays a return dates at the Family Museum, where they record breaking crowds. The Lincoln Motion Picture company is setting a precedent for all others along this route. Their productions seem to grow instead of slowing as the family management has asked for a return booking on "Realization." The first of the Lincoln's releases. The productions has been assisting Theda Bara in the making of "Cleopatra" here. The celebrated story, "The Barrier," by Rex Beach, will be seen on the screen at the States theater for the Saturday Sunday and day, Aug. 25, 28 and 27, to direct from a long run in one of the downtown theaters, where it was shown at high prices. It is in eight full reels and has been pronounced the greatest of its kind that was ever filmed—better still, even, then The Spoilers. The story tells of the love for Merridy, a pretty young school teacher from Vermont, by two sturdy men, honest John Gaylord and Gambler Dan Dennett. Both become suitors for the love of a girl, and the almost against her will and Gaylord retires to his mountain hut, crushed and hopeless. The murder of Merridy by her jealous husband, who accuses Gaylord of the crime, after the latter leaves her to marry a daughter, that she might be saved from the evil influences that surround her. The child, Necia, grows up in the belief that Gaylord is her father and an Indian squaw, with whom he lives, is her mother. To the district comes a company of United States soldiers and one of the wadame young Lieutenant Burrell, lowly educated worshipers him. But the Indian blood that is supposed to run in her vein is "the barrier" between them. Poleon Doret, a big-hearted Frenchman, also loves the girl, and it is through his nobility and self-sacrifice that happiness comes to the girl and her soldier for them all. For them all. The arrival of Dan Bennett, the recognition of his long-lost daughter, the renewal of the contest between he and Gaylord and the participation in the plot of n number of other characters cause a succession of happenings that produce thrill after several terrific man-to-man fights and many scenes of sentiment and humor. The mountain, desert, lake and river scenes are beautiful and picturesque and the difficult characterizations are written carefully. The carefully selected cast. Special music will be rendered, which was written especially for this great production. You begin at 2 o'clock, as usual. Don't fall to see this wonderful attraction. "A Mother-in-law's Disposition" is the title of a screaming force which is being presented by Billy King and his company at the Grand the last half of the present week. It is one of the very best things that the great comedian has offered during his long stay beginning to end. The title is the greatest amount of fun that one might expect a clever fellow like the imitative Billy to extract from a play of its kind, and aside from that many brand new musical numbers are being put over in the same clever style that has marked this phase of his engagement, which will have for the first half a grand milestone the last and final offering, "His Law Sin," in which the leading part will be handled by Mrs. Hattie Mcintosh-King herself. Don't fall to see these.

Read Orange, N. J., Aug. 20, 1917. Dear Tony: I have been intending to write for a long time but I have had a show out and it was closed by the wind—please pronounce it wind—and not wined, as wine didn't play any part in it a-tall. I will tell you how it happened: We were in a small town in W. Va., when all of a sudden up popped a wind storm and when I saw my tent again it looked like an old fashioned quilting party before the pieces had been sewed together; hence the Powell's Mirestels ceased to exist as there was not enough dough in the kick to form another outfit. I will now manage Sheesley's Big Mirestels which opens at Baltimore on Sept. 3. In the meantime I am here at home resting. The Ultra Lodge of Elks, of Orange, gave a banquet in my honor Aug. 14, and to say it was one grand affair is putting it mildly. The speakers of the evening were Rev. D. Waters, Dr. Alexander, Hamilton Travers, Ernest L. Johnson, Chas. Travers and Clarence Powell. The lodge is twelve years old and has over 100 members, with the following officers: T. J. Savage, chaplain; Chas. Travers, E. R.; A. Jenning, E. L. K.; Geo. Freeland, E. L. K.; Jas. Burwell, I. G.; A. Burke, T.; G. Waters, R. C.; E. L. Johnson, R. S.; L. G. Porter, T.; R. Porter, E.; N.

Say, Clara, Mr. W. would be a very handsome young man if it wasn't for his awfully bad hair, wouldn't he? Oh, he's all right now; he had his barber treat his hair with Palm Cream, and now he is simply a dream. Our Palm Cream will not only straighten hair, but will keep it straight. Water or change of climate will not affect it. We have thousands and thousands of men today—men in all walks of life throughout this country, South America, the West Indies and various parts of Africa—using our goods. It is not always that a manufacturer can succeed with his goods in his own home town. He often has to seek fields far away. But not so with us. We have succeeded in our home. If you know a barber in New York, write and ask him what he thinks of Palm Cream. Palm Oil is an accessory to Palm Cream, as it grows the hair and keeps it away. If your hair is harah and dry or brittle it needs Palm Oil. If it is sick, stubborn and will not grow it needs Palm Oil. Palm Oil is not that soft, greasy mess used by so many people for the hair. It is dry and neat; it will not grease your hat, but will give your hair that beautiful, silky, glossy effect so much desired by everyone. Big inducements offered to agents. Special rates to barbers.

Y., Aug. 24.—The week end meet at Travers Island, the summer home of the New York A. C. furnished some stirring competition last Saturday for the large crowd who attended the games. The best race of the day was the final of the 100 yard handicap in which Roy Morse and Pete White, both members of the Salem Crescent A. C., finished a few inches apart. Morse, who was the former national 220 yard champion, was on scratch and conceded his clubmate a yard and a half start. The field was sent away to a perfect start. Morse got away like a streak of lightning, and coursing up the stretch like a shot out of a gun, caught White at 70 yards. Those who expected to see the race "over" the instant Morse caught White received the surprise of their lives, for White had something up his sleeve, and with an unusual burst of speed, was more than a match for Morse. The two came zipping down the track like twin bullets. To every one except the judges it looked as if the pair had finished in a dead heat. But the judges, who were in a better position to see, claimed White the winner by inches. Andy Pendleton of the Alpha Uysical Culture club, with 1½ yards handicap, finished a good third. White was clocked in 10 2-5 seconds. LONG ISLAND Jamalca, L. I., Aug. 24.—Three hundred and fifty people attended the A. M. E.

TAYLOR 2 LEDGER'S PETS LOSE TWO GAMES TO WORLD'S CHAMPIONS Slaughtered on Home Lot and Indianapolis Fans Go in Mourning By Mr. Fan Washington Park, Indianapolis, Sunday Afternoon—Well, it was a great day. C. I. Taylor got sick; the American Giants took both games of a ballheader in Indianapolis, and 7,000 players event in Indianapolis, just like mourners to a funeral. A handful of rooters, five in number, cheered the Glants to victory. "Twas some victory, too, when you come to think of it. Beating C. I. Taylor on his home lot before 7,000 cheering fans is more than a notion, and THEN when you send four of his best pitchers to the showers, I tell you," yev going some." Three-fourths of the fans, including J. D. Howard, eased out before the second game was called. The carnage was awful, the slaughter terrible, and some one told me that J. D.'s silk handkerchief was wringing wet. C. I. Taylor got something wrong with himself. He said it was nervous indigestion, but methinks "twas the defeat. However, he has my sympathy. He deserves much credit. He fought a game fight and, believe me, he was still fighting. The doctor was at his house when I caught the train. Oh, folks, it's awful. Another thing, none of the fans in this burg will go hungry, the Greeks will have to dish out a full amount all week, 'cause none lost anything on Howard's champions. They were a little convinced that foxy Andy Foster's bunch from the Windy City had plenty of pep and that they "know their stuff." "Porter Smith, Carl Moore, better known as Snow, and Fritz Nelson, accompanied the team, and Mr. Fan. We had some time." Archie the Great Autoring, seeing plenty of dust, meeting all the big bugs in town and finally being introduced to the one great the, the Archie Greathouse oods cannot contain, the oods cannot the pen find anything in the ink that will convey to your gratitude in meet-indianapolis great man, the George Hewitt Greatman. The man there. J. D. Howard, with his 23-karat diamond stud, his diamond right and a Havana perfecto made us feel special. The latter cannot be best. Should we live to return at once, we shall estate the two members of the Estate and Mr. Archie Greathouse. Back to the game. The home team made themselves felt, and with William pitching it right after the game pitching a half of it after Charleston tripped after Blackwell was gone. Jim Taylor sent a long sacrifice fly to the outfield and Charleston beat Charleston, 10-6, like all Indianapolis had their down on the A. B. C. S. Foster was out near the Gants. At times he came to the Gants' bench during both games but did not play in field nor did he don his uniform. He was too well satisfied to let the Gants win without his aid. The Gants tied but was forced by Redding. Blind Doss missed out, but Hill doubled, scoring Redding. The Gants continued their scoring in the seventh, when Blackwell was forced by Redding. Blind Doss missed it, little catch pulling up at second. Barber sent a hot grounder over second too fast for any one to get near it and Dixon scored from there, where Redding moved by Redding's beautiful sacrifice. Add a Few More The eighth frame saw the game go completely out of the range of the Taylorites. Hill walked and scored on Lloyd's rap. Lloyd pulled up at second base and scored on Duncan shoved Lloyd to third with a sacrifice to B. Taylor. Two were gone when Francis filed out. Grant popped to Clarke, who lost the ball in the sun dropped Lloyd scoring. Dixon hit two and Williams hit a single. Redding sent a long fly to Charleston, who made a star catch. Warfield doubled to right in the home team's half of the ninth, but perished when both Clark and Marlarcher skied SECOND GAME After Barber and De Moss fanned, Hill walked, but Lloyd popped to Warfield. Blackwell was out to Grant, unaware of the fast ball out of the reach of Lloyd. It took a hop and cluded Duncan, kept rolling and when it was finally stopped he ran. C. Geller was home. Petway doubled and Duncan fenced to third by Williams in the third. Barber was hit. Barber was safe at second when he and Warfield ran into the pitcher. Duncan was caught a moment later sleep. Lloyd tripled in the fourth, only to do stranded when the S. O. S. call was made. Duncan and Francis flew out to Blackwell. Jefferies got erratic and two walks brought Charleston to the pitcher's box. No further scoring till the ball was in the pitcher's box and Duncan sacrificed. Francis's sacrifice fly scored Hill. Clark's error let Grant wander to first safety and ally. Glants broke loos in the second and wandered a wild tear. Barber banned. De Moss walked. Hill walked and C. I. took a notion that Charleston needed talking to Grant. He went thing to Charleston, who then wandered to the showers. Then here came followen CATARRH of the BLADDER and all Discharged settlements SANTM CAPSUILLS MIDY Each affidavit is signed by Judge CJ January 6th address of the court Billed by all designators Big Bill Gatwood, the handsome man, Bill was treated very cordially by the fans. Lloyd poked a dog in toone during two runs. Lena hit at Bill, but out of it, and Warfield messed it up, Lloyd scoring. Francis was safe on Clark's error. Both men pulled off a double steal. Grant singled, sending both men. That was all for the Chicago boys. Marlacher scored after he had walked and Cobb doubled. The Giants start- ed after the home team in the first half, but the bell rang, and it was 6 o'clock. The law forbids, and, therefore, the game was at an end. The scores: FIRST GAME CHICAGO H.O.A.E.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDEP SPORTS BY MISTER FAN LEO PATTERSON WINS Toledo, Ohio, Aug. 24.—The banner crowd of the season witnessed the last show of the Toledo Athletic club Aug. 11 in the hall. The big card of the evening was the exhibition of speed and cleverness by Leo Patterson of St. Louis and Sunny Rumkey of Detroit. Although outnumbered and handicapped by Patterson's reach, he earned the plaudits of the crowd by his gameness and willingness to mix it. The other bouts were not so hotly contested, but the Louis gave Bill Henry an unmerciful blow. This bout should have been stopped earlier than the ninth round. In fact, Referee Pecord could have stopped it until time without protests from the crowd. The Wilde Langford -One Round Sylvia middleweight entered the ring after only looking for a soft spot, and he assimilating Langford's wails.

Y., Aug. 24.—For just four minutes and twenty seconds Friday night at Liberty park a crowd of about 2,000 fight fans saw what a great man Sam Langford must have been in his prime. In the brief period of a minute and one-third the Black Demon broke Andre Anderson down four times. When he hit the canvas the fourth time Andre was all through. If he was actually killed his foot was, and he was saved the full course when Manager Eddie Patterson tipped in a towel in acknowledgment of defeat. It hadn't the appearance of a contest. It was just a cakewalk for the famous Anderson's Courage Flees Wide and round, roly-poly, black as far and as deep of chest as a Saratoga trunk, Langford stripped. He probably wasn't in just the shape he'd want to be to fight for a title, but he was good enough for most big men, far too good for men like Andre Anderson. Anderson looked just as a fighter is expected to look. But there the resemblance stopped. Well over six feet tall, he stripped like a sycamore, lean, little and promising. But when he looked across the ring his heart went right over the heads of the crowd and never came back. He was licked before he started. When the bell rang Langford tossed a glaring Kimono kimono and started Andre, whose weak left jaws indicated sudden flight of his fighting spirit. In a corner where he never left and right new lookes of his stars. Again Langford brushed in, stabbed two short lefts to the tummy, and drew topknot rolled listlessly and almost fell as Marve splitted them out. Again Sam walked in. And Andre got close to him, and Andre got close to Marve splitted his left to the chin and Anderson took a high kick. He got up on a count of nine. When he got up, he was pitiful. He had never dreamed of the manner of man Langford showed himself. A merciful bell gave him a "Wham" That's All It was apparent Lankford wasn't in that ring for a long stay when he waddled into the room, whipped right into Andre, forced him into a corner and after a feeler or two to the body, "wham" went the left and right, and he walked up. Up-again-down-again, it was Sam held another hook to the head and Andre went down. A count of his wounds was on the ropes and measured him with both hands, and it was all over but the lingering curiosity of the crowd that stayed head in two hands, while Sam his gorgeous robe and heat it for the dressing room. This will is good enough to beat the majority of fighters. He is fat round, but, boys, how he can hit. For cleverness, he is still there. He has punches aside like wisps, and when he was ready to sink. Andre wasn't good enough. Sam's reputation alone beats men like Anderson before they put up their hands. M. O. Jackson, the head, is A. W. Williams, returned to the room and is A. W. W. Holkins will preach Sunday at the McKenney Ave. Baptist church. Dennison, Texas.

Brandford of the Wanderers was badly injured, the first team to be injured in the two matches, two sutches. Archer scored 12 runs, the highest for the losers.

WISH If I should pass away—let me to you tonight— And you, with other folks stand 'round my bier And gaze upon my form so cold and white While whispering things you know I cannot hear: I would that you depart from old-time ways And let the picture that of me you paint Be as I am or was in other days, And make me not—because I'm gone—a saint. SYMPATHY IT SEEMS TO BE INBORN in most people to say "I told you so." Such satisfaction is apparently derived from this outburst that it seems a pity to hold it back. When migration began to assume formidable proportions and every large industrial center in the north, east and west.was employing all the workmen who came and still calling for more, the other section of the country stormed and fumed and prophesized all kinds of dire things. When the East St. Louis riots occurred, and the minor ones in Pennsylvania and Ohio, the southern press could no longer contain themselves. The "I told you so" editors took their pens in hand and dashed off a half column or so of the usual rot about the south being the best place for the Negro, where he understands and is understood, punctuated by terse jabs at the white north about blaming the south for their inhuman treatment. When it is remembered that the cry of the south has ever been "The Negro is as a yoke about our neck," and now when that yoke is gradually being lifted the cry is "It is our yoke, let it alone," the situation becomes ludicrous. Ordinarily one feels relieved when they have gotten rid of objectional things or beings—a case of good riddance to bad rubbage. But, of course, we are not all built alike, and here we find a class of people who hate another class so much they resort to the law to keep them always with them. We must be a wonderful people to have so much fuss made about us constantly, and yet we do not care to be in the limelight. We are modest and retiring, craving only to be let alone, but fate seems to have decreed otherwise. Making good is one of our supercialties. Of the thousands who left the land of cotton for the land of snow only a small percentage failed to make good, due, no doubt, to the fact that only the ambitious, hard working class had enough get-up about them to seek newer and greener fields. It would be marvelous if we did not have among us a few drones, parasites and all-round bad characters. To these are attributed the acts of lawlessness that bring oundle on the whole Race. Fortunately, all of the people are not narrow enough to believe these characters represent the entire Race, as the south would infer. Therefore, no sympathy will be forthcoming for a class which takes the law into its own hands and burn at the stake or otherwise brutally kill a human being simply because they differ in color. Their 'I' told you so's' fall on deaf ears. If they are looking for sympathy it cannot be found in this direction. LATIN AND CREEK VS. FARMING ACCOUNTING TO A SURVEY made by Thomas Jesse Jones and published by the University of Georgia in education, in southern private schools more latin and Greek is easier to teach. In 20,000 teachers in these schools have themselves had schooling only as far back as 1900, when it prompts the gentleman to rise and reckon that it appears the student is not a gentleman than in learning how to make a good living. Higher education for our people has been made by a class of people who thought it was better to be a teacher to Washington. Vocational training was conceived in his brain and carried into effect at college. He proved so successful it attracted the attention of the teaching world and was soon introduced to the facilities for teaching the hands as well as the brain. It is true we must grow before we can walk. Three-fourths of the $5,500,000 in the south live in rural areas. $3,000,000 are engaged in agricultural pursuits, cultivating 100,000,000 acres. At the same time, 115,000 acres. This acreage is twice that under cultivation either in Originia or New England. Nevertheless, the south does not produce enough crops to sustain farming is only now coming into vogue. The Colored people simply initiate farming in the south. The ennerprise吊 to be injected to make them see the advantage of plumbing farm products save the two mentioned. Latin and Greek may not be needed. We do one with a good education. He directs and works in a scientific manner. We do one with a good education. Preparation for rural life is the greatest educational problem of the white and poor people of the south. The rural education of our people is essential, not only for the education of the white people who are only now beginning to see the error of their belief in the life of agriculture which the pupils in our schools have always seen to be the life of our farmers. While it is recognized the masses will always be tillers and farmers, we must have the brain work with the hand as it is to have the hand work with the brain and Hampton teach. Greek and Latin may not aid a man in guiding a plow man considers the plow black or white, but if after ages of civilization the white man considers the plow brown we are of the opinion what is good for the goose is good for the gander. OUR APPEAL K has passed since this past and woman to do their bit to be called attention railroad engineer first blow. It was suggest their own on their particular fise even to the point of loss for K. With instant success in our to desk from many right and leave their press capen upon our people in the breast of every justice-lee our first appeal are gratify ONE SHORT WEEK has passed since this paper made an appeal to the Army since mankind to do their bit toward stamping out "Jim Crowvision" in any and every form. The Army could be done, selecting railroad employees working south of the Mississippi and Dixon line to strike the first blow. It was suggested that when they were standing on the ground they should that they stand up for their manhood and refuse even to the point of losing their jobs. They need have no fear of not finding other employment, for the demand at present is given. That the appeal mail with instant success is evidenced by the stack of letters each mail brings to our desk from many railroad men signifying their intention to fight for the right and leave their present humiliating positions. The Army has received the first appeal of matter of railroad accommodations, as told by the men in the service matter of revengeful feeling in the breast of every justice-loving citizen. And so we have entered this light to our first appeal are gratifying in the extreme. We have entered this light to our first appeal are gratifying in the extreme.

THEY ARE STILL investigating in East St. Louis and we are still patiently waiting to see what the result of their investigations will be. More than half of the cases available the findings will be summed up in these two words "Spontaneous combustion." VILLA HASN'T BEEN CAPTURED for about three months now.

Editor Chicago Defender: Enclosed you with the letter "Protest and Petition," with my signature. I quest. I never tire reading your greatest of all papers. Everything you write meets my approval. I am here in the south and, therefore, cannot write and say such things I know to say as you know. In your presence I could tell you things that you never heard of before. Our people down here are not looked upon as favorably as a "seller or point of sale," but we are threatened and made to join the union—notwithstanding they are making good money. A friend of mine showed me the same calls for seventy dollars and twenty-five cents ($7.25) for two cars, and we use our Race for a "cats' pay," for the cars do not can hold a creditable office in it. I wish all of them could purchase a car, but if you do use this for publication, please don't sign my name to it. It would be hard to bear. May you live long to hearken to the rule of the law, yours for the race. A FRIEND. FAITH Out of the volumes of smoke Out from the burning flame, Ere the human voice did choke.

Defeat and family.* *Elvin Martin, on duty at the No Cases Are Diagnosed and No Prescriptions Given in These Weekly Areas OBSERVATIONS We wish to note some of our observations of things we have observed and made note of during the past five and one-half years that we have been permitted to edit the health column of this paper. JOHN H. HARRIS At first there was considerable opposition, misgivings, misrepresentations, and misinterpretations in this column would prove detrimental to the medical profession in general, and much information of the much information. DR. WILLIAMS won't bind himself to give to the public at large, and hence there would be a falling off or a decrease the doctors' business. But our observations show that the contrary. We believe that the people have a higher regard, a greater respect for their family and community, and the feeling fession today than they had five years ago. And we flatter our surroundings, making the feeling that this purpose and dedication is due largely to our Health Notes in the Chicago Defender. We will never time it, and never will, nor will we please it to publish or say anything derogatory or to reflect upon any par- ticipant. We may at times look at things from the viewpoint of the public health and call the medical profession's any derelection of duty on its part. We have observed that the people all over this country are payable for the laws of hygiene and sanitation in consequence of the health campaign that was started by this publication, picked up by other handful papers throughout the country. We have members of the profession tell us they read our columns every week, not for fault finding and criticism, but for the articles that appear in this column interesting and refreshing. We are always open, ready and constructive criticism on our work. We have also observed a great improvement in the language. The Colored people are doing away with the nonsensical expressions in describing their physical ailments. Especially is this true in Chicago. Not long ago a well-dressed lady made mention of having a "misery" in her shoulder, when we noticed another lady touched her and whispered, "Be careful. You must not use that word 'misery' in describing or telling about pain in your body. If you do, they will have you written up in the Chicago Defender." We have not heard so much of that other expression, "If I live and nothing happens." The Colored people have sense enough to know that nothing can happen, because nothing is nothing, and hence they are awakened to the fact that such an expression is foolish—they know that the word misery is a mental and not a physical condition. We note that the colored people understand and appreciate the val- Kyle Lumber Co. cut his left hand severely. * Miss George Cummings visited her sister last week and returned Thursday. * Miss Janie Price, Opelousas, arrived home sick last week.

In their homes, churches, lodge halls and places of assemblage we find better ventilation, and we are cold. They now realise that air may be bad when warm, dry or moist, and that air may be good when cool. They realize that night is not any more dangerous than day air, as night air is all the air that we have in the house. We must breathe that air or die. We believe that it is the duty or the pulpit, of the medical practitioner, usually, and of every individual, to urge upon the newcomers to properly ventiate their living quarters to be afraid of cold air or of night air. Just a week ago, we were called to see a family, seven in number, living in three rooms in a rear on the ground floor. It rear on the ground floor. It thirty minutes after midnight when we arrived there. We found a young woman with high fever to smile to teeth with all communication with the outside world in so far as ventilation and fresh air we mean, were absolutely shut off. We spoke to the mother, who was 6 years of age, and who had but received the southland. She informed us that she had tightly closed the windows and doors of that room because she was afraid of the cold. She said she did not know anything about this air up north—it was strange air to her and therefore she thought she was doing what was expected. It tightly in that part of three rooms, without a part of ventilation. When we first entered that room, we placed our grip down, we walked into the room, and opened it. The poor old lady was amazed: if you could have seen the expression on her face, and her eyes were so bright, she awoke the sleeping members of her family. But after our few words of explanation she was willing to come in and ment and promised us that she would never fear night air or cold fresh air again, and would henceforth bring quarters were well ventilated. Tuberculosis The people have a larger and a better knowledge of tuberculosis, its nature, prevention and treatment, and how to care for it. Now the people will not allow one with consumption to cough and sneeze over the table, to spit everywhere on the floor and walls, to eat in the same colosseum is catching, and it must be ineded early; that early treatment must be instituted, consistently followed, and they are now instilated in the heart disease and tuberculosis also kidney or Bright's disease, and in any other organic or constitutional diseases that years ago they had under the superficial examinations. Classification of Physicians The Colored people are beginning to classify the doctors. Some are good surgeons, others stand very tight in the air of diagnosing and treating of diseases. They office that some doctors take more pains in the careful taking of the history and making of the examination; they realize that only ignorance and fear can harm illuminating patients over their clothing for any disease of the heart or chest. trude Billy, Beulah Jackson and Addie Kelly, Baldwin, La.: Mrs. Dr. Deleo, New Orleans, La.: Miss Dr. Vounty, Delchest, La.; Misses Agnes Williams, Delchest, La.; Misses Charles, Charles; C.
