The Eighth regiment is the only national guard unit left in Chicago, and the reason assigned for so long a delay is the inefficient accommodation that the troops at this time of the year. This delay of army supplies has caused quite a deal of unrest among the public as well as the boys of the regiment. Since the order to move has been received, enthusiasm has been at its peak. The boys are crowded with men eager to obtain help "do their blt" with the Eighth boys. A vigorous recruiting campaign was launched last night and seventy-one recruits have been secured. Recruits have been hard at work in order to bring the troops up to the new standard required by the War Department.

Shelby County "Is Sti.l Doing Her Bit"
Adds Another Crime More Damnable Than Burning of Eli Persons
Memphis, Tenn., Oct. 12.—On or about Sept. 15, Mathis Howard, an industrious farmer living near Millington, Tenn., about eighteen miles from Memphis, in the heart of America's aviation fields, was visited, cursed and abused by one W. R. Hethley, a white undertaker of Millington, because Howard's cow had entered his field. After some hot words, and you should know about what a man of Keithley's caliber would say to a Race man: "You black son of a —————, your cows are, or have been in my field, and I have them locked in my stable, and am going to keep them there." Of course, Howard resented this kind of treatment, objected to this man's language in the presence of his wife and daughter, to he seized his shotgun and sprinkled it into the fire and fled from his home. Fled because he knew that a.m. mob of bloodthirsty murderers would call within an hour and lynch him; and that bloodthirsty papers calls a pose of seven dreds of the best citizens of Millington and Memphis searched for two weeks, day and night, terrorizing the homes of Race people in the section insulting their wives and daughters clubbing and otherwise abusing the men and boys.
Now, just think of this mob, its personnel; one of our brave sheriffs, Tate's men, murdered and burned El Paso heavily armed, scouring the woods, the fields, day and night for a man who lost his life from the insults and abuses of an undertaker who made all of his money burying and robbing Race farmers—who chipped a fraternal worker for recommending to his order a Race undertaker.
What Followed
After this man Keithley had recovered, Mathis Howard was captured near Carruthersville, Mo. His honor, Sheriff Tait, was notified. He deputized Linton and two other officers from Millington to proceed to Missouri and get Howard. W. R. Keithley joined the party. They secured their prisoner, inimitable Linton and two other officers Carruthersville, and started for Millington and Memphis with their man in an automobile, knowing that a mob had been searching for this man for three sixty six race men were lynched in this same neighborhood; knowing that Millington man helped to behead and burn El Persons, knowing that a mob was captured. In the face of all this, they took this chained, helpless, handcuffed man to the river and murdered him—lynched him, this man. Howard was captured by the police of the richest county in Tennessee. His blood, along with El Persons, will forever stain the soul of Mike G. Tate, sheriff, shot to death by a mob committing an understake in the grand court to see it well done. This is about the fifth man done to death in as many weeks by Tate's mobs; he headed a group of people to the courthouse to self shot an innocent Race man at Bartlett, Tenn., who owned a atlantic farm; shot another who was a good citizen, a deacon in his church; had never been arrested or accused of any

Columbus Hunt to Rejoin His Regiment After 12 Years; Was at Brownsville
A thrilling story, full of adventure, roseate dreams and a dreaded climax, pathos, all combined in the making of the life of Columbus Hunt, former member of Company L, Twenty-fifth Infantry, which was cashed out of service twelve years ago by Theodore Roosevelt for the shooting up of Brownville, Texas.
Hunt's vision grew broad and his yearning for glory service all had its pitfall. The company was the outbreak of the Spanish-American war. He ushered himself into a dingy recruiting office on Lombard street in 1888 and offered himself as a volunteer. Hunt was accepted and immensely appreciated by the company to do capturing duty on the Island Company L, and after the war terminated the battalion was assigned to camp in Brownville, Tex. Here is where pathos entered the hopeful life of the company. He cane engaged at the miserable respect and treatment accorded them by southerners and decided that a clash of steel was the only method suitable to subdue them. Hunt was alleged to have violated the company honorable discharge. With a heavy heart and reluctant steps he departed for Butte, Mont., where he engaged in business. This adventure was not frustful, and he sold out and made his way to re-enter business, enough money to re-enter business, the Sims-Iowa, as his field of activities. Here he purchased a poultry farm.
A Big Surprise
One night while standing at the railway station at Selma he saw a U. S. army officer, alight from one of the hills and indulged in one of the about the station of a lad who was formerly a member of the army. Hunt's mind became a harbor of thoughts. He thought of his dismissal and life after leaving the army. Who could the officer be searching for, he thought. With all of these thoughts, he asked the officer if he could be of a service to him. "Certainly," came the answer, "if you can inform me of the whereabouts of Columbus Hunt." Hunt answered, but he calmly admitted his identity.
Now Columbus Hunt has been informed that the disgrace of his dishonorable discharge against him has been removed and he is a member of Twenty-fifth infantry alas! pathos has faded into happiness. Hunt is to receive twelve years' back pay, which amounts to $4,000. He has been ordered to report at the New York Army Corps, and to honorolu, where the Twenty-fifth infantry is now stationed. There are two others missing from the old regiment, and $4,000 is tucked away awaiting them. Hunt is a native of Philadelphia, Pa., and is-34 years of age.
Tri-State Farmers' Ass'nHears Simmons
BY STAFF CORRESPONDENT
(Special to the Chicago Defender)
Memphis, Tenn., Oct. 12.—With Colonel Rosco Simmons is the star farmer, the farmers of Arkansas, Mississippi and west Tennessee, took Memphis last Friday. It was the high day of the Tri-State fair, and the first meeting of the Tri-State Farmers' association.
The great orator was at his best. He had before him many thousands, including a large number of whites who wanted to hear and see for themselves. They saw and heard much. They saw thousands of the Race rise to their feet as they heard this sentence drop from the lips of the Race's spokesman:
"We have in the south enough of peace. What we want is more of law and order."
Preceding the great meeting, certainly the largest demonstration of the Race in years, there was a parade that attracted all of Main street. Forming at Church's park, almost a hundred automobiles formed a procession that paraded the principal streets. In the first car were Colonel Simmons, B. M. Simmons, the founder and genius of the organization, and President Dandridge.
Colonel Simmons was escorted by a number of soldiers of Company G, under the command of Captain C. O. Hadley, pride of Tennessee.
Figures All Wrong
In his address Colonel Simmons discussed many things pertaining to farming, and many things pertaining to living. For instance, turning to the white people "one of the difficulties in the way of holding the Race in the south is the careless way our white people handle figures. The Race would have the figures made a little plainer on settlement white people deal in are going one way when they ought to be going another. And there are figures also that go constantly to the top against the Race when they ought not to be going in direction at all. 'Naught is a naught and figures a figure,' belong to the past."
Again he shot a bolt when in a burst of eloquence he declared:
"You must stop killing and burning our men. Before this war is over we are going to need every member of my Race to stop the Germans."
He advised farmers to build better homes for their families, educate their children and give their daughters plans. "Dress the children," he declared. "They are ours, and no children must be thought better than ours."
Scores Faithless Woman
The great orator went after immorality without gloves. He declared the time had come when the Race must put a premium on the clean life.
We need all our women," he said. He told me to build. We can surrender none to the house of the low candle and the red curtain. We must exalt the good and scorn the woman of the world, and the country, beauty be her lot, take that faithless woman out of the choir and remove her from the Amen Corner.
"Let us help in the world battle for liberty," he said. "The white man can't break his own shackles without loosening mine."
His persecution was a gern and the
he was making his closing sentences.

Lawrence Bell Tries Twice to Murder Uncle; Scandal in the Case
James Saunders, 5530 Kenwood avenue, was shot three times Sunday morning, Oct. 7, at 3 o'clock, at his home, by Lawrence Bell, a nephew. It is by Lawrence Bell, a nephew. It is the wife of Bell and the wife of his uncle's wife and wanted to put his wife "off" so that the wife and the nephew might enjoy the fruits of Mr. Saunders' labor. The injured man who lies critically at Provident Hospital is in splendid attentiveness, owns his home and was about to erect a new flat building at Blendow, Ill, valued at $10.00. There were family troubles and disagreements. Sometimes the wife would leave Mr. Saunders, but when she wanted to return he would take her back. They were married ten years ago at Kansas City and came immediately to this city. He got work and saved. Saturday night Bell went out with his wife. He had favored his nephew several times. Not long ago he would leave Mr. Saunders, but when he had illicit relations with a young girl, and Mr. Saunders helped him out of jail and gave him a job looking after one of the many flats that Saunders cares for in Kenwood, Bell, who is 20 years old, returned to the house and all his friends. He was supposed to be alone. By some miraculous nower he awoke and saw Bell leaving the room.
Fires Five Times
Bell, after finding that he could not do his "dirty work" by asphyxiation, pulled a Smith & Wesson 38-caliber revolver and fired five times; three shots from the side of the forehead, one on the right side of the neck, the other on the right leg above the knee. Saunders called the Kenwood police station and the officers came immediately. Saunders called the job, sent the officers where he thought the two would be, 1315 East Thirty-seventh street, the home of the wife's sister. Both were caught and arrested and are awaiting trial. Mr. Saunders was taken to Provident Hospital. Dr. Homer Cooper, intern, was put on the case at 4 a. M. Miss Wetheral, light supervisor, assisted with good work. Mr. Saunders called and was able early in the morning to talk. Every attention was given him and by noon Sunday was able to take a drive in a taxi to let his employers know his nephew has attempted to murder his wife, and that he was few nights ago he and his wife were looking over specifications for the new building at Glencoe, Ill. That there were pencil marks on the specifications drawn by the wife, indicating that the wife had been denied that Saturday afternoon Bell said he wanted to quit and demanded his money, saying he was going away. He did, but he returned and fired four shots at the wife and nephew are being held at the Woodlawn station, pending Saunders improvements.

Judge Questions Jury
When the prisoners tiled in court there was tense silence. Before the verdict was read to the prisoners, Judica Crow asked each juryman was the verifier and received an answer yes. The reason the juryman was because the attorneys for the defense were absent. Special Assistant State's Attorney Furmer, representing the state, was present. After the verifier told the court that the state had other suspects the three men who were released. One of the ten convicted was Will Palmer on Friday offered his willingness to turn state's evidence but later changed his mind when the court him that they offered no immunity.
Argues Till Early Morning
Testimony was introduced to show that previous to the killing of the detective Race men had armed themselves at the home of Dr. Bundy, Dr. University, Dr. Ohio, and the stanch friendship and belief of his innocence has caused societies and lodges of the Race to use influence and political power to keep the detective from being back to the authorities in this state. Attorneys for the defense argued that testimony of persons who did not admit the grand jury was not admissible, but Judge Crow ruled in favor of the state. Charles Miller (white) of East St. Louis was the first witness. Objection was raised, as he did not appear before the grand jury. This also was overruled. He testified that between 11 and 12 o'clock on the night of July 1 he drove past Seventeenth street and Bond avenue, and five Negroes congregated near the house of Bundy and a gasoline filling station. He could not see whether they were Marshall Stupp (white) of 11 Market avenue testified that about 11 o'clock several automobile loads of Negroes passed his house, going in the direction of Bundy's home, a block away from the foot going in the same direction. They were talking excitedly and he could see that some carried guns and revolvers. Mark Reedy (white), a grocer at Bundy's home, testified that before 11 o'clock he was being by voices and saw men passing his house. He could not see whether they were white or black, but he said that before 11 o'clock he was identifying members of the detective members of the defense, but overruled. The witness said he heard some of the saying they were going to Tenth street. Bond avenue that Connedro was killed.
Says He Heard Church Bolls
About 11 o'clock he heard the church bell ringing and for half an hour after that there was shooting. He thought that about 2,000 shots were fired.

Selection of the jury, which seemed likely to occupy several days, was suspended after the defendants indiscriminate peremptory challenges by informing the lawyers that they would have to get a jury from the centre hand if needed; the would hold court the entire time if needed for the jury. Although it had taken two days to get nine jurors, the jury was completed at 9 p.m. The state were each entitled to 260 peremptory challenges and were using them freely until Judge Crow interposed. When the jury was completed, the defense had used 81 defendants, 23 and 16 had been excused for cause. In all, 143 talemen were examined. Alibi testimony was introduced in both all of the defendants.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
A PECULIAR CONDITION
Southern Communities Claim Rabble and Rough-Necks Intimidate Race
Bason Rouge, La., Oct. 12—In the past few weeks the writer has traveled something over 3,000 miles throughout the southern part of the country and visited the "Race-hatred" districts in an effort to get a clear and concise knowledge pertaining to present-day conditions. Of the races, 100 percent of the Race are not heading north in the large numbers that marked the so-called "exothus" of the past spring and summer months. The explanation is that the race is not expected to should stick to the warmer climate of the south until spring comes again is but natural, and no one acquainted with the race can claim that they are remaining on account of "improved" conditions.
Who Are the Rabble?
Whenever an atrocious and inhuman crime is committed against one of the members of the Race down here, a cry is let out by the "better class" of whites that they do not sympathize with the action, and that the perpetrators represent the low, ignorant, rough-neck rubble that decent people would not associate with. Who are the men and to what class do they belong who are in the city councils, city offices and state legislatures of these Race-hatting districts; are they representative of the better element of the south, or are we to understand that they also are of the variety that compose the murderous lynchers and debauchers of our women, who are the real cause of the thousands of our people shaking the blood-soaked dust of Dixie from their feet? Jim Crow laws and failure of the courts of the south are leading factors in the heading north of the thousands who have gone, and the whites may rest assured that when spring comes droves will again beat it to fairer fields; which is as it should be.
Want Just Laws
If the better class of southerners are in office, why don't they go ahead and pass city, county and state laws that will at least allow the men and women of our people to feel a slight amount of our freedom to travel in dinances, etc. to continue in effect which not only humiliate us who are affected, but elicit the scorn and unjustified hatred of the dastardly lowly and the oppressed against us without fear of prosecution or consequences. As a sample of one condition which prevails down here, the writer draws attention to the following occurrences: the man had to hurry in order to "make a train, getting to the station just in time. Ahead of him, carrying a basket, was a greasy looking Chinese man and another man, the latter hadn't had a bath in a decade. Not thinking in his hurry, the writer mounted the coach steps and was about to follow the celestial and other honored man when the car when a train man yelled, "Nigger car in the rear"; slamming the coach door in my face. The greasy oriental and Mexicans went into the first class day, coach and driver, the writer almost missed the train in his road scramble to get into the "crow coop" with the rest of his gird, male and female. But such is life down here, and the would mean a bounty on a bull or chain, or a burning net of the stale.

crime other than the crime of being black.
In this, 'the most lawless county in Tennessee, or in the world, what are we to do?' There seems to be no recourse—the whole political machine is rotten and the people are not paying money dare not speak. If they do, this same mob that is being fed from tax-payers' money will murder them and destroy their property; they protect themselves from the official mob for the privilege of running dives for the Race and brag about it. Read the outer proceeding now in progress. If you doubt these facts, these lives have fallen out and they are now telling this horrible tale to the world.
IF JUSTICE*could get a hearing in this county, there would not be a simile. If JUSTICE*could get the sheriff will go in person to capture and protect a case of "SHORTY" or whisky and will send two ignorant, a human being to protect and to guard a human being.
Justice
The wheels of Justice turn slowly—these crimes are moving in a circle; they are perpetrated against Black men their brains burn their eyes, poison, they are weak; they have been and are still being systematically robbed. Long years ago Belgium cut off their hands and burned their eyes to pay the price. So must Shelby county, for every drop of blood these people shed she, too, must shed or bleed; the rest of us must shed or bleed upon the shoulders of all white men—they must pay. They plead with us to stay in the south; they say that they must stay in the north; they say that upon the shoulders of all white friends, but they LIE and they know they lie. They want the Race men to stay here to labor; that they may reap the fruits of our labor, as they have to stay here because they hold at their command the women of our Race and can, unmolested, live with them and by having children, thousands of brave children. See Bette Hicka's case, Shelby county.)
THEY WANT THEM TO STAY HERE TO FILL THEIR PROTECTED DIVES AND HOUSES FILLED WITH ELLE-WOMEN FOR WHITE MEN: THEY WANT THEM TO STARVATION SALARIES TO DO THE WORK THAT THEY ARE TOO LAZY TO DO. THERE WILL BE HEARD SOME DAY IN THIS BLOOD-STAINED COUNTY THESE WORDS: "The solution of vipers." Suffer as you have caused others to suffer. Die as you have caused others to die.
THE REMEDY
I can see but one remedy. That remedy is to leave the lazy murderers to till their own soil; to cook their own meals; to run their own automobiles; to do their own washing; to exploit their own labor; to kill the 75,000 of the Race in Memphis and Shelby county can no longer stand

Brooklyn, N. Y., Oct. 12—Rufus L. Perry, a famous lawyer of this city, with offices at 375 Fulton street, was recently disbarred by the Appellate division, "altered fraud, deceit and malpractice," according to a report of Patrick E. Calahun, who was appointed to take testimony after the grievance committee of the BAR. Assigned to the appellate division, Calahun based his opinion, on the evidence that the respondent was guilty of the charges preferred against him. The appellate court of forging a deed purporting to be signed by his father and transferring to his mother property at 1061 St. Marks avenue. Perry was at the transfer and acted as commissioner of deeds. It was proved later that, although the deed was supposed to have been signed in 1895, the paper it was written was made o year later.
Perry has been a practitioner for a good many years, and at one time a member of the navy of Kings county. It was said the time that he was too young for the position, being only 21 years of age, but he was able to retire some years ago by accepting the Jewish faith and married a young Jewess after getting a divorce from her husband with St. Felix street. Only recently Perry was made a member and lionized by a French society of this city and was soon rumored that the affair is a frame-up on Perry, as the transaction was a family affair. On account of his marriage in general he has always been a well known figure about the local courts.

Closely following Lieutenant John Philip Sousa's band of 350 pieces organized at the Great Lakes naval hospital, the nurses dressed in navy blue, with red-lined capes. The nurses composing this division have volunteered for the nurses' corps, and was held in their honor and farewell. It was a sadly inspiring sight that brought tears to many eyes, with a smile that reflected the these intelligent, highly trained, efficient young girls and women marched past. The tremendous ovations accented the nurses' appreciation the crowds held for them and the noble sacrifices they have made.
The other divisions were composed of hospital units and Red Cross work, Brooklyn, Washington, D. C., and other cities.
Many women were seen in line with reputations both national and international. Many women were filled in the lines of the whites as they marched by sixteen abreast and many line of sixteen in front of them that the Race women are not insensible to the call of the country and are taking their places in the line of sixteen and making the same patriotic sacrifice.
The fifth division was led by the Fifteenth regiment band, Colored, and with Souss's great band in the plains and enthusiasm shown for them.
To hear the band approaching, the crowd knew something unusual was going on. They plainly felt that "something unusual" had gone on. Their "Good-by-Broadway; Hello France" seemed to electricity with a swing that was peculiarly their own.
The Race graduate nurses from Friedman's hospital, Washington, D. C., and one from Lincoln hospital, New York city, marched with the Henry Street Settlement unit of New York City, who are also employed at the Settlement.

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 your hair is harsh and dry or brittle it needs Palm Oil. If it is slick, 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.

WILLIAMS PITCHES BRILLIANT BALL, BUT GIANTS LOSE
nksgiving Day to Formally n Gotham's Basketball Season
By J. E. Patterson
N. Y. Oct. 12. Big attraction for New York's formal opening. Thanks to several famous incorporators will Sandatton Casino meeting Jersey City Athletic club, as in the Jersey Blues. Cooper, former captain of incorporators, but now man of the original incorporators, will meet the Miltones A. C. of East Orange, N. J., at Delaware Casino. There has been considerable comment by the local papers, namely the museum, the athletic court, the basketball ball situation, which has been directed against Mr.

THE WORLD'S SERIES
It is impossible, of course, to ever imagine what any one one's opinion would be of the follow who stood in line from 6 a.m. until 11:30 in order to gain entrance into a ball park, and then sit two hours and a half waiting for the game to start; however, let the opinion of one of men and women did last Sunday in order to see the second game of the World Series between the White Sox and the New York Giants, and it was really worth while, that is, from
I myself alluded that the Colonel white man in all waits of life, and I might also add that it showed that he was alive to the opportunity of earning a dollar, as he was among the first to get in line, and the first that I encountered holding boxes of chars owned by colonels that would appeal to the fellows in line, and they even had horses whom they had paid to stand in line, in order that their places might be sold again at a great profit. In the next foot, when our party reached Third-ring street and Wentworth avenue at 6 o'clock, the line was extended from the gate on Shields avenue to the Seventh army. From an interesting standpoint, we did not weave my soldier's line, but I saw, heard and experienced, was a revelation, and it afforded an opportunity to study that class of people who live always on hand on similar occasions though there was no parterness, and no occasion of observation. Chinanman regret, however, that I did not get the name of one particular individual of
the dark Race, who was about as smooth an article as one would wish to be, and the power as he sold a chair to every person that stopped him even though they said they would not pay the possible purchases would say, "Goodness, give you a quarter," he would reply by saying, "Friend, I would be cheating myself." Everybody, more or less, of the trimmings, one of Ford's milk cans, one of Ford's milk cans, and the driver was forced to sell all the milk he had. Every one was good praised and nothing in the form of a forced women were observed in line. It is not my purpose to touch on the ball game, as the daily papers did that day. Edward Williams, one of Chicagos popular minicologists at 3634 S. State Street, was most enthusiastic fans in our party and Edcile had the goods with him.

LINCOLN TEAM OUT
Madden personally. The sporting writers should take into consideration that the public in general wishes genuine experience, and personal relevance you have against some individual involved in the game, whether he be manager or player! A lot to the Public. Our sheets will be kept in the office for your advertising news! All basketball ball organizations are going to get a square deal from the Defender. As games are played, so they will be reported, regardless of whether your advertising or not. It is our policy to deal deals out favourability is not square with the game and others involved in the sport. Our object is to give to the Defender on a fair and square basis, to the least. We believe this is what the readers of the Defender want, and what they are entitled to. It is expected the season to be in history of the game. All of the wagers in the training and the competition among them is expected to produce a new champion for 1938. Many of the playwriters are in the selective draft, and the training camp will produce many new faces in the line-up of the big teams.

Grant Mopes In Ninth and White Lads Turn Defeat Into Victory
Schorling's Park, Sunday Afternoon.
—The cool breeze tailed to dampen the spirits of the crowd that filled both the grandstand and the bleachers, but the same crowd was bitterly disappointed to see a brilliant pitchers' duel and a bang-up game of ball break up in such a far from unfavorable way. You have to give it to those youngsters from around Fifty-first and Halsted, for they play the same brand of snap-faced baseball did the preceding Sunday when Reddish faced Corey. But today it was a far different tale. There was not the semblance of a chance for those palefaces of the ninth had opened. Francis had been under E. Wotell's high fly and then an easy roller down the first base line, in inches felt, went right on through Grassie. You see, Y. looking at the submarine cheese, According to Brother Woods, Grant had the mopes. Doc Woods tells me that the mopes is a disease that you see. Whether Grant did or didn't know that his rank error paved the way for two runs in that fatal frame, Jjava an' bugs would have been eath' java an' bugs Sox come through on the long end.
The Irish cleaned up. They held a little pow-wow all to themselves, celebrating, for they took the short end of a dance to that one ninth when the bacon flicked to the right, ill doubled and Demmer pulled up at third. Hill doing some fast hustling. Then with a drive that looked like it was taking candy from a baby in the kitchen, Demmer misjudged it and a heap big greasen up in place. The tyring run was over the pan and what proved to be the winning run was in. On the relay M. Wotell pulled up at third. That was all, but Cory got the second verdict over the Giants and the Ragens will wear this out next summer in their advertising.
BE ON THE LOOKOUT
FOR THIS WHITE SKUNK
Savannah, Ga., Oct. 12.—There is an unscrupulous white man who is preying upon the good will and generosity of Race members in the south by offering an alluring proposition to furnish a year's subscription to the Chicago Defender together with a picture of Booker T. Washington, for the sum of 50 cents. Several members of the Race have been fleeced by his vicious misrepresentation, and have filed com- plaint with us. As we cannot rely upon the southern laws and courts to apprehend this thief, because of the fact that they absolutely refuse to punish a white man who robs and fraudulently forges a Race member's name, we must select the next alternative, and appeal to your common sense and good judgment to reject such a criminal and refuse to listen to his entreaties.

ATTACK SAILOR ON DUTY
BECAUSE OF HIS COLOR
Brooklyn, N. Y. OCT. 12—Rumors have leaked out of the censor department that Simmons, a sailor of the United States navy, was brutally attacked without cause and lies at the Naval hospital in Brooklyn. Eye witnesses of the affair declare there was a small-sized riot when three guards assaulted Simmons when he feigned to kill them. They attacked him from the rear, it is alleged, and terribly manhandled, throwing him on the floor and kicking him down the stairs. He mellem an armed squad of marines was called and a pistol was flashed, but no firing done. That could be learned of the affair. Simmons was washing his clothes near the vessel when a guard him saw him. He informed the guard that he was a superior authorites. This angered the guard and he knocked Simmons down and continued to beat him. A riot call in when workmen joined in the fray.

Officers rushed him to the police station his bed on, the second floor through a window and started down the avenue with five cops behind him. Officer Clay remarked that he would get him or he would be arrested. "Not if my wind holds out," Clay fired five shots in the air, and brought Robert to a sudden halt. Finding that they returned with him in the condition, they returned with him to the after which "Big Boy" was captured with his gun and a box of cartridges. "Big Boy" stated that he had been shot in the head by young men and he merely carried his gun in the tection, especially in this time of war. He was fined $50 and costs.
