X WOMEN CRUSHED TO DEATH BUNDY TRIAL STARTS TUESDAY Lawyers to Ask Change of Venue or Continuance St. Monica's Church Again the Scene of Discrimination By J. M. Batchman East St. Louis, Ill., Nov. 16.—Last Thursday, in the Belleville circuit court, the trial of Dr. LeRoy Bundy was set for Tuesday, Nov. 20. It is believed that his lawyers will ask either for a charge of venue or a continuance of the trial. The prosecution is believed to be seeing a scapegoat and has been hot on the trail of Dr. Bundy, one of the most prominent men in St. Louis. It is understood that the charge against Bundy is unbailable under the laws of Illinois. It is also thoroughly understood that there is really no foundation for the charge. The truth of the matter is, the doctor is facing a serious situation, because some one and no one cares to place him on the world allows a doctor to suffer rather than to see May's Trial Next Mayor Mollman's trial is set for Feb. 22, but in event of the Bundy trial being started the mayor's trial will be postponed. Mayor Mollman will be the mayor's secretary, will be the trial killer.

He had expected trouble, even a bit, but had thought it would have been so much graft and corruption expected to see the better class march on the city hall and demand its surrender. Theme by which East St. Louis professional bondsmen have escaped paying for forgiveness in justice courts was described today to the congressional committee investigating the causes of the race riots of July 2, by Frank L. Lewis, a former professional bondsman. He said he had been a party to the practice which he described. "It is an unwritten law in the justice courts for bondmen," testified "that when professional bondsmen are bond, and the accused person fails to appear, the justice shall not declare a bond forfeiture, but shall declare the defendant guilty by default, and shall be fined $1000 and costs, which the bondsman Bonds Accepted by Police He said the unlawful practice of freeing prisoners at police stations, at night, on bonds approved by the police, was still in force, and had been in force except under Mayor Chamberlin, who fused to permit the police to sign bond acceptances and a justice used to stay downtown at night for this purpose. Marks then went back to the administration of Mayor Silas Cook, which preceded the Lambert, Chamberlin and Mollman administrations. He testified that who was Cook's son-in-law, worked with Eugene Sweeney, a promoter, to get a 50-year electric light and power franchise, and that McBrien sold the franchise for $50,000 to a St. Louis promoter, who sold it to Clark Brotherton for $75,000. The franchise is now used by the East St. Louis Light and Power Co. McBrien, without giving dates or names, told of a story which he said was "common gossip," to the effect that $14,000 was once placed in a safe for members of the city council, after was passed. He said it was related that he commended without getting his share, and that his widow filed suit for it. Complaint About City Unavailing Marks told how, under the Lambert administration, he and his family were disturbed by the late Nick Cantillon's Edelwes cafe, near his shop. He said he complained to Lambert, and that the mayor advised him to move his family to another neighborhood. Marks said he gold about 200 revolvers a year. When he admitted his own part in bond practices, Congressman Foster made a remark about the value of "an honest confession." Church Again Discrimination picked out for this purpose is St. Monica's Mission at Thirty-sixth and Dearborn streets, formerly presided over by Rev. John S. Morris. By a long proclamation from Archbishop Mundeltein to Very Rev. Burgerman, provincial of the Catholic religious order of the Fathers of the Divine Order, the order has been sent out to "Hirr" the priest of St. James' white Catholic must enter the sacred precincts of that edifice. The claim is made in the proclamation that Catholics of the Race will not be barred from the white churches. It has been some time since Race children have been allowed to attend St. James' white avenue. This being a fact, it is plainly evident that, no matter what claim is being made to the contrary, Jim Crowism is worming its way into Catholic circles in this city. One day the United States Supreme court decided against segregation resenting the so-called Archbishop of Archbishop declares for segregation spiritual in the north. There have been many injustices sent through in the name of religion, and the Archbishop's swan song can be considered but a blind for a sentiment that he has been against the Race members of his church. It is indeed a regrettable condition. "Until now practically any one who so desired could affiliate himself with St. Monica's attend services and receive the sacraments there," says the official communication of the Archbishop. "Now I desire St. Monica's to be reserved entirely for the Colored people of Chicago, and particularly for the south side. The Catholics of whatever race or color are to be requested, not to be intrude." AMERICA'S GREATEST ORATOR M. Photo by Brans, Louisville, Ky.

Now Gladys is a keen-egid, polished little chap, masquerading as a soldier boy in Uncle Sam's uniform. Left With Eighth Regiment When the various companies of the Eighth regiment were assembled in the armory at Thirty-fifth street and Forrest avenue, prior to their departure, Gladys was hiding away somewhere in a dark corner, dressed in military attire and with hair bobbed to escape all methods of identity. Just as the great mass of soldiers swarmed out of the open doors she quickly darted into lines and matched gallantly with gun on shoulder to the station with the troops. Not in a single event did Gladys comit an act that would portray the slight semblance of effeminacy. She refused to accept any attic course than that of a "rough-and-tumble, jolly, good old soldier boy."

Here to it: "Beaumont, Tex., Nov. 19, 1917.—Dear Friend Tony: We had the great pleasure of meeting the officers and boys of the famous Eighth Illinois Ink-ware at Houston. The second day we went to the march, passed in review before Gov. Lowen, passed in Texas, and several French officers,顺利, it was an inspiring sight to see men in march, and they are men, men and so men, whom we have added, the dignity, needened to press all with their sterling worth, they are again those care-free boys, men and so men, never before carried anything heavier than cigarette, digging trenches, chopping down trees, carrying logs to clear their ground, and actually liking their 28-mile hike without a perceptible degree of fatigue. Well, that is just what they are doing. Their camp is well weathered. Camp Logan, and the present camp, which they have set up since being there. The boys are in good health and excellent spirits. Of course, there is a excellent camp, for they are not crying for what cannot be officers of the Eighth are a refined, intellectual and progressive lot of men, and they have proved that a regiment of the Eighth face men and the best results obtained. The girls of the company entertained all the officers who could get leave from the camp, and we all had such a "touch" with them. All send regards to friends and relatives in Chicago. They say if they go to France we will read about them in history, and we have no suspicion of a man who has been a Major Hunt says the present body of men is the bast the Eighth has ever assembled. Enclosed you will find a short poem, which I would like to have you use in your stage page. As ever, your friend. SALEM TUTT WHITNEY Smarter Set Co. The Poem TRAMP TALL TRAMP. (Dedicated to Col. Denison and the boys of the Eighth Illinois, in review at Houston, Tex.) Tramp, tramp, tramp, to the war drum's beat. Song: "The War" See, the soldier boys are marching in review through the crowd-thronged streets, where the Stars and Stripes are arching. Stalwart lads, just in manhood's prime, All flushed with the joy of living; Trained to fight in a foreign clime. They live they will soon be bearing. Yes; dead the soul that views the sight without patriotic thrilling; Cold the heart that visions the fight Witha, sad emotions filling. But the blar. of bugles and rousing cheers. Must they be we think of the mother's tears. Tramp, tramp, tramp to the war shears be beat. The soldier boys are marching. Side by side on the sun-bathed street, Where the Stars and Stripes are arching. Some are bare of the darker Race. Not tanned by the sun's embracing; Their names in history soon to trace So deep there'll be no erasing. Mean the soul to let thoughts of caste Take alight from these who are serv- ing The fast ('een forgetting the past). With a loyalty unswerving. But muffe the drums and stifle the cheers. For, oh, think of the flood of mother's tears! Tramp, tramp, tramp, to the war drum's beat. The soldier boys are marching. Side by side, through the crow- dow. Where the waving flags are arching For some, who march with head so high. They are no home returning; In France these boys will light and die. Oh, my hearts (they'll leave a-yearning! Our boys will gain the victory. But think of the blood and slaying And yet, if it lifts humanity, Think not of the price we paying Hush the wild huzzahs, the exulting cheers.

It was the third time that Dr. Williams had addressed the Lyceum and he was accorded the first time he spoke there. The theme of his speech was the Race was on trial. That at this period he needs to be more assertive; that people should think of the fellow who is down, who must be saved in order that all must be saved. He said the Race should show self-denial in dress, food, drink, cabaret and theaters and that practical economy was the foundation of preparation, he named the editor of the Defender as coming to this city some years ago, a practical printer, his newspaper the World's Greatest Weekly. He stuck to the task, "made good" and now has accomplished his goal, constantly doffing their hats to Mr. Abbott. Dr. Williams impressed the Lyceum that there were at least 20,000 "newcomers" that arrived in the city the past year; that they love the spindle mans with their own people, but, said the speaker, "the Jew in neighborhoods on the south side was getting rich running good stores, shoe shops, grocers, and restaurants; they love the organization they could be making this money, giving their children work and preparing them for big business enterprises."

"Mammy" Days Have Passed In spite of all the loyalty that is being shown by the Race during the time of turmoil and strife the United States under the white press sees it to heap upon and designate the women of our Race many repulsive objectives and brand them as old time slavery mammies.

In training of education and training, but were forced to wear bandana caps and remind that they were "mammies." Southern white women made a speeches and cakes like my mammies used to make." One of the women would always remind them that she was not any of their "mammies." These women should have never accepted these places to be women. They should have rather starved first than accepted such insults.

Last night was some more night. Truly a night among.knights. More fan was never on hand at the ST. A gang of us sang a selection to the tune of "Joan of Arc," we sang it "Cold and Dark." Posely the nun looks like we heard an epiphany sprung at the door. We did not get sleep until 8:30; that is, the rest of the boys didn't; but, believe me, I can tell you every time the train stopped, the train stopped, the stopping brings on more talk. This train's gait reminds me of a cross between a State street car and a Ford. It stops every time the train stops, the stopping jest. I was ever joked. Really, this train runs five miles and then backs up four and one-half miles. We have been on this train for seventeen hours. Every fellow except Big Ham (Lemuel McDougal) was up by 6:30 this morning and every dude in the car was up by 6:30. The dude by 6:30. Here is the finish on the bottom line. No fatalities.

Tried to write some letters, but couldn't somehow. After breakfast I watched the train roll by. We've traveled pretty fair fare to a new engineer. I've just found out why we didn't make very good time yesterday. The engineer was an old one, who knew all of the "places" he came to one, he'd stop. When he'd remember that he he'd skipped a stop, why, he'd go back. We made our first water stop just now. We needed to leave the train for about an hour. He has the boys visited and bought out the Y.

Perhaps we'll live through it. East St. Louis, Ill., Oct. 13, 1917. 3:40 p.m. The new engineer we acquired at the last stop now to know but one person in East St. Louis; he's been there all the afternoon. Among the Hills, Illinois. Oct. 13, 1917, 6:15 p. m. We've been traveling regularly, more or less since leaving East St. Louis. We've been traveling only to the only glimpse we got of St. Louis was a distant view of a tall white building on the corner of a tiny euro. How wish that everyone back home some see those bluffs just east of the railroad line, as we see them. The Peter Jones Film company (adv.) should locate ours in all the locals are all jolly, well fed and warm. We are beginning to feel the effects of the climate farther south.

Let us, too, make America —world democracy—but let us insist that charity begins at home and that the Prussianism which infests the south, and to a great extent the north, first be wiped out by the men who call us to the colors. Twelve million of our people in America are watching the trend of events in this great conflict, and these twelve million people in America must awaken to sunder the shackles of prejudice which bind them to a fixed status above which they must not hope to rise. If we are to have a Black division, we demand that it be ALL BLACK. We want our own men to have the honor of victory if such comes to them on the battlefield—we accept the disgrace if they fail. We call every able-bodied man among us now to rally to his country's need in this time of trial. We call to our country to be the America the song symbolizes her to be—"The home of the brave and the land of the free." Let us, too, make America safe for democracy. THE VILLA BANDITS SIXTY FEDERAL TRAIN GUARDIAN severely wounded by Villa and his gang.

SKYT FEDERAL TRAIN GUARDS were killed and scores of passengers saved by being killed by his and his gang of bandits in his latest train hold-up. It is too bad that he was killed immediately before putting this deserado and his followers under six feet of earth. Also there is parently there is none too good a feeling existing among Mexicans for the government persecuted in their domain against us are either winked at by their government—if it can be so called—or a feeble protest made to show good faith. We had an opportunity to step into Mexico and take control until things assumed their normal condition, but we withdrew and tried the experiment of hiring a lawyer to dispute the disputes. The feasibility of this plan was doubted by many who knew the people, and knew that some strong, overwhelming force was needed to bring it to trial. The tribune-protectorate, it would seem, could, with profit, have been established. The Mexican state was established over Haytı, Cuba and San Domingo. The task would have been to we are equal to the occasion. Americans have vast interests in Mexico that are not yet detected. With a stable government no fear would be entertained, but experience taught us that the president of today is the exile of tomorrow, the millionaire pauper of tomorrow. Undoubtedly our government will set Mexico's house in order to protect its hands. All the world, is topsy-turvy, and when things finally do get adjusted let us hope there will never be a recurrence of this inhumane war— through a dozen doors bearing the offending sign. After the band had finished the train and lit the fireweed we boarded. Before the stop the fellows were quiet enough, but now, having had their breakfast, they are growing noisy. Baraden, Ark., Oct. 14, 1917. 5:10 p. m. Soon after breakfast, we leaping we passed through Brinkley, Ark. Exactly 100 per cent of the residing population was at the station, as were seven summer boarders. There were no locked doors or citizens, but many well kept appearing persons were there. The one good impression of the town was a messy street driven by a nibbe feature young below, and three beautiful brownskins sitting in the rear of the car. 'Dje get me!' Beautiful. And we thought we left all the beautiful brownbs in Chn. Fine morning, fellow friends, nothing doing, so I'll quit writing, nothing doing. Teague, Tex., Oct. 15, 1917, 7:05 p. m. Fellows all are feeling rather blue this morning, but about 2 o'clock this afternoon we pulled into Corsicaana, the largest appearing town we've struck up with. We sent a young fellow to the store for eats. When he returned he had everything he was sent for except some canned goods. He explained that the store ordered that no sardines, salmon, or other items were to be sold to the soldiers. When the porter returned, heavily laden with cans of all descriptions, we all commenced to yell at him: "Come on in and buy some," "belong to us" etc. The young man who had gone to the store for us looked up at us and drewled: "Yo' all from the No'th, ain't yo' all?" When the porter up he had either to sell his sardines and buy some left with it on his hands. We stayed around town for a couple of hours and when we left we were all in better spirits. It is a strange thing, but when we left the fellows are all rather low spirited in the morning, but improve toward evening. After leaving Corsicana the roadbed became rather rocky. This started Carl Moore's war at Sheed's) to talking. He recalled the rocky and the camp at Blanco river. He said that the rocks were very numerous at said Blanco river. "For every rock on the ground, there was the face of the ground, two more would There were so many rocks that I could ist that charity begins at home and the south, and to a great extent the man who call us to the colors.

All the fellows turned in early last night and slept well until 5:30 a.m. m., when we were awakened by the sounding of revelle, the first dressing hurriedly we gave up train, haversacked and beblanketrolled. We didn't move immediately, however, waiting for breakfast and a dinner dressing hurriedly we gave up train. While we were policing the band was playing, and say, maybe you think the boys don't spread themselves down here. Perhaps it's the air, but is it? They are certainly sound mighty good. They are word, the Seventh was on hand to meet them officially, as they expected, as it was during drill hours, but they were at the gates of the camp, nevertheless, are here safely in camp, with no fainting and very few sick men. I will give a brief account of the trip of the second section. The fellows in our section detained a Jonesboro, Pine Bluff, Tylers and Tennessean for own's. The only place where we did own's was our card of respects was Tyler. We had 48 hours after we left, train No. 2 pulled and commenced to unload. Evidently we had been thought enough of 'our folks' had passed away to make up a regiment. Anyhow, the signs were all back. One of the dark-skinned boys went into the Chinaman's upon being refused returned to the train. He belonged to Company E. (Mr. Abbott, if any man from Company E should walk into your office and ask anything, from a sheet of paper to your everything, but the printing press, give it to him--he'll get how. Fifteen minutes later Company E came out of Mr. Sing Much Blue's company and everything but the Chink and the book, a yellow, for instance, had a whole carton canned goods. After everything of value the way of eats had been added, also came "Blue Juice," the blackest fellow the carton proud of it, carrying the cash register. He walked up into Car E and, depositing the register upon the table, Dollar for dollar was out the contents. Dollar for dollar was out the interest. So far that is the largest gain any company has accomplished. When Chipman resumes business, however, I dare say that together discouraged. I dare say that the darkskinned, clarkl clad boy, coming his way he will either close up shop because his signs and be a "regular" storekeeper, the second section arrived a few hours later did and, seized by the band, marched into their new home. Having brought up the camp, we the camp, we will stop, because of the large amount of work to be done before the camp will be describable. THE BOYS HAVE GONE AWAY The boys have gone, yes, gone away!

Hurt Boarding Con Serving Car Saturday night, while endeavoring to board a southbound St. George street car. George W. Irving, 5711 St. George avenue, was struck by an unknown astrotist, sustaining a dislocated arm and a broken leg. He was rushed to the Provident hospital, where Drs. W. Williams and Hall rendered first aid. THE PROVIDENT HOSPITAL DRIVE The Provident hospital drive is meeting with great favor from the public. It is most gratifying to note the in- terest, enthusiasm and cooperation on the part of the young people, and on the part of all of the churches, in making special efforts to not only do their part, but also to part in raising money for this worthy institution. In the history of the institution have the Colored people manifested such enthusiasm in making such large subscriptions to DR. WILLIAMS the funds of Provident hospital. Rail- road men—porters, waiters, cooks and no mean amount. One young man said: "My salary is only $20 per month, but here is $10 for Provident hospital. My wife was operated on in the Providen- dation and she was never treated better in any place. It is a worthy institution and should be supported. I will solicit on my car and try to raise $25 or $50. Another railroad man, past 50 years of age, said: "I see you are making a drive to collect funds to reopen the doors of Provident Hospital dispensary, I am sorry that I had to be closed for a while. Please help with my good will and best wishes for an early opening of the doors of Provident Hospital dispensary. I regret that I can not give you more. I will take a book and collect what I AN OPEN LETTER In very respectivity, State St. Furniture Co., 2133-37 State Street, Abraham Stiebel, Press TACK 'EM DOWN Memphis, Tenn., Nov. 14—One of the local newspapers suggests, as a provocative note of the members of the Race Committee, this section tie up the farm-hands by yearly contract. This is one of the best remedies yet, from a comedy newspoint, and would not be surprising if the members of the expedient of trying hem down. They say here that the members of the race committee are the time, so between crops, it might be a fine idea to grease all the rail fences and logs with something adhesive, thus keeping the fellows stick around, even though the weary bones were thoroughly engaged.

The board of trustees appreciate the spirit of these two gentlemen giving the $10 and the $5 as much money even more, shows that the situation has the good will and the cooperation of those in the lowly walks of life as well as the good will of those in higher walks of life; the board of trustees is quite uninterested. Provident hospital appreciate more the small subscriptions from a large number of people, accompanied by their good will and best wishes, than a large number of people, accompanied by an ent individual which amounts to many times the amount coming from the earnest well wishers of the institution. Public Meetings The writer addressed three large, enthusiastic meetings Sunday before last, in three different churches. The people attended these meetings in great enthusiasm, the purpose of hearing the history of Provident hospital and the reason why this drive is being made for the raising of funds. Last Sunday night he addressed a large enthusiastic meeting, in which standing room was available at the Provident church, on the north side, under the direction of Dr. Roberts and Rev. Harris pastor of the church. There was a good and kindly spirit manifested toward the institution. The Provident church described blanks, in order to have part in the making of contributions, this worthy institution. BANISH ALL FEARS! AWA WITH ALL FEARS OF PROVIDEN HOSPITAL AND TRAINING SCHOOL EVER CLOSING ITS DOORS! The institution is in better condition today than ever before, for the following reasons: The people understand now what Provident hospital has done and is doing in its existence, and to lay claim to the morality of the public for its support. The white and Colored people understand now the value of this institution and the importance it occupies in the community life of this great city; and they recognize its existence, its operation, its absolute value, the welfare and life of this great city. Why Did the Dispensary Close? Why Did the Dispensary Close? The dispensary closed for the reason that there was a large advance in the price, and in the price of help; and with this large advance in drugs, wages, etc. there came increased demands for assistance from this dispensary. Besides, the need for care for people were poured into this great city. Many of this number were unacquainted, many bankrupt, many had barely enough money to reach Chicago; many of these people were withdrawn from the bank for our lot and to say nothing of being able to pay doctors' bills or buy drugs. They knocked at the door of Provident Hospital discharged, opened, and they were received and cared for. All of these were means with which to care for these poor people. The funds of this institution grew low, the price of drugs advanced still higher, and the prices of drugs increased of the large and increased demands made upon it.
