Mrs. Smith, Who Shot Single Man, Fined $200 BOMB DAMAGES BAPTIST CHURCH IN THIS ISSUE VIEW of the Great Crowd That Saw the American Giants-A. B. C. Game Last Sunday Afternoon. Judge Fines Woman $200 for Shooting The case of Mrs. Caesar Smith, 3129 Federal street, who shot Rufus Fields in the heel Thursday, May 30, was called for a final aling in Judge Kearn's court, Harrison Street station, last Friday morning. Mrs. Smith in her testimony sought to camouflage the court and disclaimed any connection initially with Fields. Judge Kearn spelled a rat and insisted upon her telling the court if they had not sipped from the same cup on other occasions. This, of course, she denied strenuously, averring her unswerving loyalty to her husband. But when Brother Rufus delivered his oration on the romantic declaration the scene changed. Rufus let the cut out of the bag. He testified that he met Mrs. Smith on the night previous to the shooting and she had arranged to have the coffee hot and everything in the pink of condition the next morning at the man would then be on his way to his private office at the stock yards, where he is a kind of special adviser in the pig department. When the judge heard this he appeared to manifest a very ardent interest in the proceedings, and readjusting his glasses and with Solomon-like expression he asked that the whole truth be told or else everybody would go to jail. It was told. And "truth" was told. It was told. And a result of its resurrection, the court, picking up his gold pen, tailed the decision: "Mrs. Caesar Smith, $200 and costs and one day in the county jail." That chapter was closed. Then turning his attention to Rufus Fields he said: "Opposite your name I will write $25 and costs." Thus closed the final chapter of a romance that began at Federal street, stopped for ventilation. Federal street, stopped for ventilation, consummated at the bridewell. It has later been learned that counsel for Mrs. Smith had been granted a suspension of the above order until June 13, when final disposition will be made. "No Regrets of the Past, No Fears of the Future" "No Regrets of the Past, No Fears of the Future" Simmons Birmingham, Ala. June 14—So impressed was the great multitude that sat at the feet of the magician, that Roscoe Conkling Simmons, in the auditorium of 16th Street church with what he had to say, that both white and face people requested Dr. U. G. Mason to get him to return so that 20,000 people can stand in the street and listen to him. Alaba Roscoe and sent him out, so that there is plenty of pride here in his work, but no one had measured his labors exactly until Wednesday night. It isn't anything to say that he is "the greatest orator" and all that, for everybody knows he is the champion speaker. But it is what he is doing for the Race in the South; what he is doing for the country; and for the white man that makes him the most important figure of the Race. His Own Star Knocking on him does no good and can do no harm. He is his own star. The thousands, white and black, who sat for two hours under his mighty spell in this city were simply enchanted. The whites were carried away by his marvelous eloquence; his own Race by his courage and his love for his people. This is what he said: "I have no regrets for the past and no fears for the future. Mine is the only Race that can look the white man in the face and live. And I have just begun that life." And then this to the white people: "There are some things beyond my understanding. Why do you desert me? Why talk of my faithfulness in you by and then give me a sense when to ask for help. Tell me why do you allow no 'people' to be brutalized on the street cars of Birmingham." Knows What and How It took a man to say that. But this man knew how to say it. He knows how to say everything he wants to say and to please. He will put on the state, brought the great champion here. He was introduced by W. B. Driver, noted business man. Colonel Simmons may not come back on June 27, but whenever he returns both wiggle people will put on a contest in filling the seats on first. Don't miss this one with which he started an uproar in Birmingham: "What's mine belongs to the white man, and what's his belongs to me. Of course, I haven't got mine yet." PLACES CREPE ON STEWARD'S EYE Jesse Sneed, 497 E. 34th place, appeared before Judge Kearn at the Harrison street court. Friday morning, dressed "spleck and span" cane in one hand, gloves on the other, charged with assault upon the steward of the dining car on the I. C. road. The testimony shope the familiar game known as "grape" occasioned the controversy. Sneed claimed he had a little more luck in twirling the bones than his opponent, the steward, and thereby divested him of all his ready cash. This caused the steward to revolt, and he had Sneed removed from his run. This angered Sneed to vicious actions. Meeting the steward outside of the office door an argument ensued. The net result was worse. Judge Kearn, who acted as referee in the last bout at Harrison street, decided in the steward's favor, assessing Sneed $50 and costs. SATURDAY Buffalo Man Whipped by White Mississippiians for Calling Mother "Mrs." West Point, Miss., June 14—Frank A. Azmon, Buffalo, N. Y., took French leave from this city recently when he experienced a bit of southern Hunkultur. His mother, Mrs. Annie Hutcherson, had not seen him for sixteen years and consequently extended Mr. and Mrs. Azmon an invitation to visit the prospect of making their future home here.

Azmon was to be employed by a Mr. Brown, upon being asked by an employee on the floor, who was residing he kingly informed him that he was stopping at the home of Mrs. Anna Hutchinson, his mother. The thought of referring to a woman of his Race as Mrs. greatly angered the proceeded to lash Azmon's body with the proceeded to listering large wells across his back and shoulders. When the case came up before the mayor the white man justified himself by the statement that this is one of those northern niggers who doesn't know how to talk to a man in Buffalo it was learned that a rih had been broken by a severe kick in the side.

Bond Bandits Stations In defending himself against the attacks of the gang of young white ruffians, Byron drew a knife and cut one Walter Daley (white) across his neck. Notwithstanding Byron acted in self-defense, he was attacked him with assault. The case was bitterly prosecuted both by the state and the complaining witness, who was impressively bandaged for the occasion. Young Byron was represented by Alderman Louis B. Anderson, who volunteered to testify. Hale D. Parker, Daley told the court that Byron had interfered with his younger brother and that he chased him when he threatened to assault the younger Daley. Upon cross-examination by Alderman Anderson, which developed that Daley was guilty of assault and he and his gang pursued Byron from Forrestville avenue to a point near the Forty-three street elevated station. As the crowd pursued, it was shown, it increased in numbers, hurting missiles the final of their pursuit as they ran. Finally overtaking him, they pounded on and severely beat, and bruised him: Herbert Byron Is Found Not Guilty Anderson The efforts of the residents of our Race in the vicinity of Forty-third street, Forty-seventh street, Champlain, Forrestville and Vuccinones avenues to protect themselves against the lawless white elements who have recently been guilty of assaults upon the place of the Place man and women residing in this territory and malicious destruction of property, not with signal success last week when the case of the state against Herbert Byron was called for trial before Judge Hugh Stewart in the Hyde Park branch of the Municipal court. A series of depreciations committed by white poilomons who objected to members of our Race purchasing and residing in property in this territory culminated in an assault on Herbert Byron May 29 on Forty-third street and Forrestville avenue. In defending himself against the assaults, he cut Daley (white), as above indicated. Several witnesses (white) rested on behalf of the state, endeavoring to show that Byron was the aggressor, but in each case under investigation of Alderman Anderson, their testimony was shattered. Mr. Byron, who is one of the family of Musical Byrons, and a writer of much noteworthy music, told his side of the case in a superiorly intelligent and impressive manner. He related how the crowd of young white third and Forty-third and Forty-fourth passed jeered at him, using vile and obprobing epithets. He resented their remarks, which resulted in the assault upon him, and the final act of cutting in self-defense. The state's attorney made a lengthy argument in support of his motion to hold Byron guilty. He was answered by Alderman Anderson. The plea clemantion, defending the right not only of his client to protect himself in such circumstances, but the right of any citizen. He reviewed the history of the violence and destruction of property which had happened in that neighborhood leveled at Race residents in an organized gang of young white hoofed men, the facts, even taking the admissions of the complaining witness, warranted a finding by the court of not guilty. Judge Stewart in making his finding commented upon the evident race feeling which he regretted was unmistakable in the case, and warned those present that it would not be encouraged colored, that it would not be encouraged colored in his court. He concluded it clearly appeared that Daley had instigated the trouble and recklessly followed it up. "I do not feel," he said, "to the evidence justifies holding Byron to the trouble jury, since from what has been brought unquestionably acted in fear of hurt and possible death to himself. I find, therefore, that the defendant is not guilty of the charge in the complaint and he is accordingly discharged." After the attack was present in court as a character he could in aid to what manner he could in the efforts of his people to force respect for their civil rights, Whip Boy With Barbed Wire Alexandria, La., June 14—McKinney Newton, a juvenile prisoner who was hired on the farm of George and Joe Ward, (white), farmers of Caleaeun Ward, was born in a barbed wire and his body mutilated as a result of the beating.

Bond Bandits at Police Stations Fleece Victims It is learned from good authority that a bonding trust has been formed and grown to such marvelous size that it is difficult to even secure a friend's release, even though you have property, from the Cottage Grove avenue station, which he should be informed of the clutches of the law. This trust, it is said, is composed of the Goodman brothers, located at 34th and State streets, saloon keepers, and Jos. Smith, 25th and State streets, who also keeps a dramshop. The magnitude of its working power has grown to such an extent that their victims are not even bound to their counsel until they bondmen have made a decision. This, of course, has a two-fold meaning, in that he not only gets an exorbitant price for a bond of trivial offense, but he also sets the price of the fee for the lawyer, and reaps additional unholy harvest for his questionable labor. The infamous practice has exerted the bondmen a degree that these bondmen seem to be able to tell one better when a person will be booked on a charge than the police. It has even been rumored that in many St. Louis, Mo. June 14—Today Mr. W.

This member of the wrist signed their bond and the man of the confined men personal friends of the confined men left the station disappointed, but wiser. In the event that a prisoner does not employ a lawyer who is in the employment of the bonding trust they will tell him that the lawyer he has secured to defend him has absolutely no influence with the judge who is to try him, and that the lawyer whom he has secured to defend with takes lance with the judge every time he is accused of the victim does not know that these are painted lies, but they make their side of the story so strong that he eventually falls into their clutches and is fleeced. They are aided and abetted in their foul work by what are commonly known as "patrol wagon chasers." These men are commonly known as "huskies" and huskies. They have no property themselves to place to sleep, but they are as busy as bees around every court, informing newcomers of what lawyer to employ and how well they are acquainted with the judge. This kind of pest is a moth in the garment justice, and the attention of Chief Justice Harry Olson should be called to these bonding halls and methods of operation. This investigation will be continued until some improvement is brought about.

LaGuardia, representative in congress from New York: "After my talk with you yesterday it occurred to me to ask you to use your, offices in my behalf. I am, good an American as anyone living and naturally I want to do my bit. I firmly believe I wasn't fairly treated at home. "All I ask now is a chance to show my sincerity. There's no position I would consider too dangerous. I am willing to fight and die for my own country. I cannot offer any more. "Will you kindly make my offer known in the proper authorities?

Finds Husband Eloped With 'Another': Has Both Arrested Mrs. Bertha Allavia, 5237 Wabash avenue, intercepted her husband, Julio Allavia, aged 21, and Edwinina Anito Celestian, formerly of 243 North Maplewood avenue, in a plot to arrange a new social environment, leaving her entirely out of consideration. According to the inquiries of Mrs. Allavia showed a decided tendency to work late and then later on to work all night. Upon investigation by Mrs. Allavia, who had become suspicious of her husband's actions, the fact was recalled through the listing of a note written by Mrs. Allavia immediately began actions, visiting the fair dame, acquainting her with the ardent epistle addressed to "Dear Julio," and at the same time informing her that "he is my property." The dainty Celestian blushed profusely, asking any knowledge of the fact that she knew that Allavia was married. A few days thereafter "Dear Quillo," seeking to prove to Celestian his single blessedness, seized the fair one and fled to Crown Point, Ind., under cover of night, and there he took unto himself wife No. 2. Soon after their return to Chicago this romantic adventure was gently brought to the attention of the judge. Judge Kearn was selected as arbitrator. He issued a cordial invitation to Julio and the fair Celestian with service of an escort (a policeman) to meet him at the Harrison street station at a certain date in order that matters might be legally discussed. Needless to say that the invitation was accepted.

Two Former Defender Agents Die Cleveland, Ohio, June 14.—Mrs. Ethel Sampson, wife of Charles Sampson, 2189 East Thirty-fifth street, died last week after an operation at St. Clair Hospital in Milwaukee, 4088 East 103rd street, died from tuberculosis. Both were agents for the Defender when in business on Central avenue several months ago. PRICE FIVE CENTS $200 URCH orshipThat ght From ynamited tives who have been working on the case believe the dynamiting is the work of some white miscreant because of the presence of the church in the community. The congregation lately canceled possession of this edifice, which, like other churches, formerly was used by white people. The sound of the explosion was heard for two miles and hurried Mrs. R. Garaffa, white, 3138 Bell avenue, out of bed. Other residents of the neighborhood also were shaken and in buildings near by were shattered. The bomb was dropped into the basement of the church on the Corndal avenue side after a stained glass window had been broken. A big hole was torn in the floor of the auditorium. Paper and plaster fell, pews were shattered, windows torn out and broken, work and the interior demolished. We were taken to Mark's Evangelical church and were bought by the First Baptist congregation then located at 1322 Church avenue. At the time of the negotiations she stalks of dynamite wired together were found lying against the foundation. In another bomb was found. On May 15 St. Louis witnessed one of its largest gatherings at the dedication. The First Baptist church has had its share of trouble. Some time back a former preacher who had charge of the congregation and who claimed kinship with an ex-president of a Cemetery, amused with a young girl member, the choir, a summer high school student, and disappeared finally to be located by detectives in New York. Still prior to this another minister, who had charge, created so much talk or interest the pastorate. Since the present pastor, Rev. Maxwell, has had charge, the church has done well and prospered; however, a certain hoodium element in the neighborhood of the structure begrudges the Race its well doing and the trouble it has caused the trouble possible. They will grow astonished to it, however, as the church is there to stay. Ralph Tyler Asks for Equal Accommodations for Our Washington, D. C., June 11 — Recently Ralph W. Tylier, national secretary of the National Colored Soldiers' Comfort Committee, sent the secretary of the treasury, Mr. McAdoo, who is in charge of the railroads now under government control, a letter asking that some steps he taken to stop the Jim crowing of soldiers and speakers presenting the war aims of the government did not materially affect his letter suggested that since the railroads are under government control and this war is in the interest of the oppressed people of the world for the true spirit of democracy, it was hurtful to compel soldiers and patriots to accept inferior accommodations to which even allens are not subjected, Mr. McAdoo, it seems, referred Mr. Tylier, Judge Prouty, director of public service, who invited Mr. Tylier to call for a conference on the matter. The conference was held last Tuesday morning. It is reported that Judge Prouty expressed himself as having always believed our people should have equal accommodations and that he expressed sympathy for the Race and his personal views against segregation and color and promised to take the matter with Mr. McAdoo on his return from the Virginia health resort, where he is now recuperating. Mr. Tylier advised the director that the subjecting of soldiers especially, and the men who had volunteered to deliver speeches presenting the war aims of the government to grossly inferior railroad facilities, and the men specifically inconsistent with the President's as to why America had entered this war. Judge Prouty is from the state of Vermont. Shoots Wife and Companion Toledo, Ohio. June 14.

These districts take the population of the Harlem district, where people are living right together and where the largest Race settlement in the world is located. The socialist party in New York is growing rapidly among our people. Last year, after a campaign waged by a Philadelphian Chander Owen, the socialist ticket polled about 25 per cent of the Race vote. Dr. George Frazier Miller is one of the most scholarly ministers in New York, who has always condemned injustice in race. He is an A.B. from Howard University and member of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, and a student and writer of rare ability, a Philadelphian and an A.B. from Virginia University and graduate work in the school of political science of Columbia university. New York has led the way with men of character and ability who have taken part in nearly every real uplift movement in this city for the last five or ten years.

It was drilled in and shot Wednesday, June 5, at 10:00 a.m., with a production of approximately 150 barrels per day of the highest grade of oil in this field. Crude oil is now selling at $2.50 per barrel. Think what this means to our stockholders as soon as this well, and our first well, of about twenty barrels of oil per day, are connected with the pipe line and our oil placed on the market. READ EVERY WORD OF THIS AD, AS IT MAY BE YOUR LAST AND GREATEST OPPORTUNITY Our stock is now selling like wildfire at $3.00 per share. Our company is no more a speculative one, but is now one of the best and safest investments in the country. We are not an oil company on paper, but we now are a LIBERTY BONDS LIBERTY BONDS It is the duty of every true and loyal American Citizen to purchase as many Liberty Bonds as possible, that he might help this great Government of ours to win this war. If you have already assisted the government in winning this great war by purchasing YOUR GREATEST OPPORTUNITY Heretofore the Black Man has been compelled to invest his money in white oil companies. The Square Deal Oil and Gas Company, which is now a REAL oil company and has REAL producing oil wells, is the first company of its kind in this section of the country organized and incorporated under the Blue Sky laws of the state of Missouri and controlled and managed exclusively by Negro men. There are more wealthy Negroes in Kansas and Oklahoma than in any other two States in America—and OIL is the reason. Have you heard of little Sarah Rector, whose income is Six Hundred Dollars ($600) per day, or Luther Manuel, who pays an Income Tax to the Government on a valuation of an Eight Million Dollar Estate? And Again, OIL is the reason. You read about the Trapshooters Co., which brought in the huge gushers at Eldorado, Kan., and made $40,000 for each investor of $100. Perhaps you read the headlines in some daily paper: "Twenty-Three Kansas City Miners" aires by Black Gold From Eureka Wells," and the story that followed on how Hale, a former railroad conductor, made fifteen million dollars. Again, you may have read of the amazing career of Harry St. Chair, who rose from a drug clerk to a multi-millionaire in a few short years, and how in only eleven months his Oil interest earned nearly nine and a half million dollars. Then there was the 1914 OIL Co., which paid $74,400.00 for every $100 invested in eighteen months; the Colline Co., which paid $83,000.00 for every $175.00 invested, and the Our company is managed by competent, efficient, successful and progressive young business men—men who have studied and know the oil business—men who act, rather than talk. Our lease on which Wells No. 1 and No. 2 were brought in is an eighty-nine tract in Section 12, Township 26, Range 18, Allen County, Kansas, near the proven territory of the Humboldt fields which hold the world's record for the smallest percentage of dry holes. BUY YOUR STOCK NOW AND REJOICE LATER soliciting your support merely because you are a Black Man and because our company is a Negro concern, but because we are here offering you the same great opportunity that has heretofore been offered principally to the White Man. When our company begins paying dividends, which will be in the near future, it will mean prosperity and happiness throughout the United States, Canada, Mexico and Central America to each and every one of our true, loyal and Race-loving stockholders. It will mean better homes for them; it will mean better education for their little ones; it will mean that broader avenues of business have opened for the Negroes, and lastly it IT WON'T TAKE A THINKING MAN LONG TO ACT Note comment by Humboldt Union (White), June 6th. Humboldt, Kansas.; The Square Deal Oil and Gas Company, operating on the Wins Farm, two miles due east of Humboldt, has brought in what is believed to be the best well in that section of the field. The well was shot Wednesday morning, and is showing up for a fine production and a money maker. The company has set to work to do some real developing, and with results to date, it appears as if its members and stockholders were about to realize a sure enough "Square Deal." Contractor M. A. Lyons of this city is drilling out the company's lease. This comment comes from the leading paper in Humboldt. We have simply published it here that you might obtain the general opinion of the public in this section of the country. Clip coupon below and mail in your remittance for as many shares of oil stock as you can possibly get. SIX FACTS ABOUT OUR COMPANY 1. All our Stock is Common. Every share entitled to dividends on exactly the same basis as every other share. You share in Well No. 1 just the same as you share in all the Wells which are to follow. 2. All stock is non-assessable. No assessment or obligation can ever be made against your stock or any other owner's stock. 3. We are not going to stop with the bringing in of our second well. We are going to develop all of our leases in the different sections of the country. Wells Nos. 1 and 2 prove our Allen County Lease, and we are bound to make a great deal of money when this territory is fully developed; that is why we are selling stock now. 4. And get this point: Your Stock makes you a partner and part owner in every acre of our present lease or any we may acquire, and you share in every dollar of profit the Company may ever make from Oil, Gas or any other source, and in Well No. 1 also. 5. We now have a permanent operating Company and fortunes for us all is our goal. 6. There is no preferred stock; you share on an equal basis with the rest of us. We all want quick action and are handling the company's affairs that way. We are in this deal to make money for each and every stockholder—and lots of it. There are plenty of boobs and we also gigs who never made a model in their lives, who will laugh and poop-push when a model calls them on a listen to these ginks and you'll never change a model in these. Take a plunge on FORTUNES WHEELS OF OIL-with us today. You attend to your business and let the boobs and the never-dwells attend to theirs. You do not have to be a gambler to take a chance on what is a sure game. This advertisement was prepared June 10 by Samuel R. Hopkins, an official and heavy stockholder of the Square Deal Oil & Gas Company. Facts tool are exactly true to date. We reserve the right to return your remittance if oversubmitted. You will get in on this—if you hurry. Please note this—the Square Deal Oil & Gas Company is not a fifty million dollar corporation. Neither is it a million dollar corporation. Neither is it a half million dollar corporation. Neither is it a $250 million corporation. Nor is it a White Corporation. The Square Deal Oil & Gas Company is, as I have told you elsewhere in this ad, a Negro Concern, controlled and managed exclusively by union of our Race. A few dollars interest in our race, and as our capital is so small, it is going over big, and will be the bigger, when we have fully developed our already proven lead. Do you know the Negroes of this country have a chance Do you know the Negroes of this country have a chance to earn millions by investing in 1916? THE CHICAGO DEFENDER Since this company has succeeded in bringing in two oil wells with a good production, and since it will be soon paying its stockholders a handsome dividend, it marks a new epoch in the history of the Negro of this country. It proves to the world that the Black Man is fully able, without the leadership and assistance of the White Man, to finance and operate big business enterprises the same as anyone else. We have a few more shares of this wonderful opportunity left, and it becomes your duty and the duty of every Race-loving Negro to do his bit in supporting and maintaining such legitimate Negro enterprises. It must be remembered that we are not O'Deall Co., which paid $58,000.00 for $300.00 investment. There are scores and scores of cases like these in the Oil Fields. It is said, in Tulsa alone, there are 160 Oil millionaires and hundreds who are rich from Oil. The above is what the white man has earned by investing in Oil. The men were in the ground floor of these Companies. They bought Stock in these companies about the time their first wells were brought in. These were white companies, and were principally organized GAS CO. in Colorado. The SOLE DEAL OIL AND GAS CO. in Colorado concern. Our Capital Stock is now $20,000.00; our shares are now $3.00 per share. We are here offering you the same great opportunity that the white man has had. The Colored Man has the same chance to make money in the Oil business as the other fellow has. E. H. Harriman, the great railroad builder and investor, once said: "It is the keen minded man who invests at the start of an enterprise and makes all the money." GET IN BEFORE WELL NO. 2 GETS IN. BUY YOUR STOCK NOW WHILE YOU CAN GET IT AT $30.00 PER SHARE. When we get such a production of 500 barrels per day it will mean that each stockholder will receive in dividends 5c or more per day for every share of oil stock he may own. Think of it! Think what this will mean to the stockholders of this company next winter. "MAKE HAY WHILE THE SUN SHINES."

Uses Knife in Search for Wife Edward Baxter journey sprightly to the home of his mother-in-law, Mrs. Martin, 51 East 43d street, and eagerly sought to ascertain if his wife were his mother in person. To who she was by his mother in the palatial residence, but there seemed to have been an inkling of doubt in his mind that he was deceived, so he attempted to force his way in. At this stage ofagaing, he was surrounded by his Martin, appeared on the scene and Mr. Baxter drew a keen blade from his coat pocket and endeavored to "find a way or make one".

The testimony developed that it was through the carelessness of Mrs. Crampen that he was able to obtain the jewelry and he had taken it to teach her a lesson for her carelessness. Lewis was paroled to his aunt, Mrs. Rebecca James, who made an eloquent plea for lenency on behalf of his aged mother, who is ill in Memory.

Y., June 14—Tuesday evening, June 4, 8:30 p. m., marked a new era in the history of Brooklyn, when the new joining of the Carlton Avenue Branch W. M. A. at 405 Carlton avenue opened its doors to the public. It was the beginning of a week of ceremonies, consisting of proclamations and receptions, to mark its dedication to the use of men and boys and the community in general, and ended last Sunday with a celebration to soldiers, sailors and those, expect- R. M. MERONEY Sec. Y. M. C. A. ing to become soldiers, and the unfurling of a service flag of the Carlton Avenue Branch with thirty-six stars. Each day during the ceremonies the Branch maintained an open house and gave sufficient opportunity for the public to make a thorough inspection of the new building and hear of the aims and hopes of the community. Week thousands of people, white as well as members of our Race, passed in and out of the building. Officials of the borough, doctors, lawyers, longshoremen, porters, boothbacks, in fact, people in every walk of life, rubbed elbows during the entire week. Perhaps each and every one maintained the same thought—that it was a Godsend to Kings County and the community. The first evening was given up entirely to Brooklynites. Addresses were made by Judge Robert H. Roy, George E. Wibecan and others. Many organizations and institutions were represented, and applauded the speakers. On Wednesday afternoon at 4 o'clock a special reception was given to the ladies. Representatives of several societies present, and several inspiring talks were given on Wibecan. Was church night, and the various churches throughout the city were represented, the music being rendered by a number of local choirs. Gov.

Whitman delivering the principal address, the governor was escorted from St. Rita, Rochester, Knell and Christ of the motor corps National League for Women's Service, arriving at 9:20 p. m.

Saturday evening a reception was given to the Sunday schools, Boy Scout troops and Boys Brigades. Son scout made a visit to the school and made the principal address at the unfurling of the Branch's service flag. The committee in charge of the week's program is as follows: E. H.

The completeness of the other milestone in the progress of the Race, and means a greater and better future for the youth of the City of Churches. Red Cross Campaign for Nurses: Issue Statement New York, N. J., June 14—An active campaign to secure 25,000 (white) young women to enroll in training schools for nurses in the war service was waged last week. This Friday night in Carnegie hall a mass meeting to emphasize the need of the army and navy for additional nurses, will be held. Realizing, perhaps, the inconvenience of caring for or train as nurses for war work, while thoroughly trained and competent nurses of the Race are not permitted to become full ledged Red Cross nurses in the military hospitals, the Red Cross, through its director of the nursing department, Miss June A. Delano, gave the statement: "The Red Cross at all has been entirely willing to enroll Colored nurses meeting the requirements for service in military hospitals. The assignment of these nurses to duty depends upon the surgeon general and the responsibility of the Red Cross with the recruiting of the nurses. Some of the necessary personnel, National Committee on Red Cross Nursing Service at a meeting held in New York unanimously to enroll Colored nurses wherever there seemed to be an opportunity for their assignment to duty in military hospitals. Several attempts were made to organize Colored nurses, and it was hoped that it might be possible to select them for service at the Colored cantonment contemplated at Des Moines, Iowa." Shift Blame Several Times While it is believed that this is the first public statement Miss Delano, in behalf of the society has ever made the same has been written by her to least two persons in New York to least two persons in the state to least two persons in the state for the discrimination is put squarely up to the surgeon general, being addressed to Eugene Kinde Jones, of the Urban League, only recently. Turning to our files, we find, in an article in this paper, a statement from the surgeon general, sent to a well known New Yorker deeply interested in the subject, last February. The surgeon general is quoted then, in a letter signed by Dora E. Thompson, superintendent Army Nurses Corps, as saying There is no opening in the Army Nurses Corps, colored in the manner. Whether conditions have changed since then will soon be seen by the alacrity in which our nurses are accepted into the Red Cross and sent to France for work in the military hospitals in the same manner, and under the same conditions as any other nurse. Many Children in Anniversary Parade of Brooklyn, N. Y. June 14.-In the annual Anniversary day parade, held in Brooklyn by the united Sunday schools, several hundred Race children were in line. It is estimated that 100- 000 children marched to the straits of many bands, and they were an ideal one, and the little folks thoroughly enjoyed the march. After the parade each church provided ice cream and cake for the little folks. This is a custom peculiar to Brooklyn, and is eagerly looked at, aware of the occasion. Whitman and other notables reviewed the section that passed by the Mall in Prospect park.

Hutchings C. Bishop. Many clubs and societies were in attendance. Dr. William St. Chair of Philadelphia made the closing speech; and benediction was offered by Rev. W. C. Cain.

Drunken Sailor Makes a Vicious Attack on Civilian Drunken Sailor Makes a Vicious Attack on Civilian 14.—One of the of deliberate poil attempted police coerclion was revealed here last week when policeman stood calmly by and refused to arrest a drunken sailor and his civilian friend, who had brutally assumed him W. 140th W. Street. To a Defender man Mr. Lee related a story that, were it not datelined New York, the reader will the reader to imagine it was a A. tale of Georgia or Mississippi, Lee, who is an employee of the New York street cleaning department, was performing his duties on 89th street, between Columbus and Amsterdam avenues. Monday morning, June 8, when about 10:45 o'clock a sailor in uniform, accompanied by a civilian, the sailor, spying the Race man and directly羞辱 some fun," took a old lady from Lee's garage can and deliberately threw it at man, who, not expecting such an assault, received the full force of the blow. Hilarious at the success of the first venture, the drunken sailor and his civilian friend rushed Lee, who, noting their condition, tried to avoid a battle. Knocking him down, the two men began to pinch the man unmercifully. Strangling the feet once again. Lee was promptly downed the second time, his head striking against the curb. Lazed and semiconscious, Lee remained there a few minutes. Meanwhile a crowd had collected. Gaining his feet again, the assaulted man decided to defend himself, when the civilian drew a pistol and pointed it in Lee's face, with the life he had best get to Lee. He ran, and, looking back, saw the white man hand the revolver in another civilian. At Columbus avenue and 89th street he tried to locate a policeman, but failed to find one. Going into a near by phone station Lee called up the 32d precinct house at 100th street, between Amsterdam and Columbus avenues. The station house had to have a policeman at 89th street in Lee's face. Lee returned to attempt a centrifuge at the work. Arriving back to the scene of the work, assailly assault. Lee found the crowd still there, but no policeman ever showed up. White Lady Tries to Aid Mrs. Margaret Handy (white), 125 W. 98th street, who had witnessed the assault, walked over to Lee and told him the men and she would try to find him. She did at 9th street and Amsterdam avenue. This remarkable officer of the law, Patrolman Higgins, shield No. 2302, of the 32d precinct, ignored the woman's plea for aid for Lee and during the pleaings Lee himself came to do anything, saying it was not on his beat. Meanwhile the gang continued following Lee, and reaching 9th street, Mrs. Handy insisted that the recalcitrant policeman arrest the assaulters, as they were now on his beat, and Lee's continued to refuse until Lee strigued him to refuse men he apprehended, before they reached the ship, where they were attempting to get the drunken sailor to. It appeared that the officer evidently intended to let the men reach Broadway and then claim again they were beaten, finally halting the sailor and the man, searched their pockets, and finding no revolver, said it was impossible for him to take action. Policeman Refuses to Take Names Though Lee explained he had seen the gun passed to another civilian, Patrolman Higgins refused to arrest him, so even he took his names. During the arrest, he man ran up and saluted to the officer, "Don't arrest these men for that damn nigger," adding that if the officer got into trouble he would get him out. Meanwhile the sailor was directing at Lee who and profane language. Still he continued to interfere. Finally the officer walked arm in arm away with the man who said he would protect him.

Arriving there they reported the case to the police precinct, telling the offending policeman he captain asked for an explanation of his action, and when he had stated the case the captain severely reprimanded him and said he would have to explain his peculiar actions to the inspector. Now the officer, frightened at the possible results of his dereliction of duty, began to get busy with inside stuff. He got in touch with Robert Hicks, district superintendent of the street cleaning department, and had that official attempt to persuade Lee to drop the case. Hicks told Lee that Euromilan Higgins might lose his job if he missed the case, and while he realized it would cause animosity through the police force, and that if he pressed the charge Hicks said that Lee could expect more trouble. Further, the policeman himself came to Lee's house at 7 p.m. Monday and plied with the abused man not to appear against him, admitting that he had violated law, but that he did not know what action to take against him the moment. The next day, Tuesday, the new well frightened guardian of the law visited the street cleaning superintendent to see if that individual could not force Lee to withdraw the complaint. The superintendent, Robert Hicks, then tried to compel Lee to make out a report of the entire occurrence and put it in his hands, telling everything. To all these advances turned a deaf ear, determined to see the patrolman reap the result of his action. Wednesday while at work Patrolman Higgins, meeting Lee on the route, again pleaded with him and begged Lee to go with him to Mrs. Handy's residence to see if she would not withhold her complaint. Lee again refused. Then Lee took care of the complaint with Lee, the officer left. That afternoon, about 2 o'clock, the same gang that watched the heating on Monday appeared again on the corner of 98th street and Amsterdam avenue. As he was standing there Lee noticed an auto drive up and three men alight, the police responding. Lee.

"Twas a great joy for the fellow who has eased back twice." member of the Olympic Team. Drew, it will be remembered, was a member of the famous Olympic team which, after having qualified for Stockholm, but after having qualified for the run he pulled a tendon in the final. He returned to this country and tools a long rest. He entered the University of California and resumed athletics in 1945 and on March 25 he came back and supported us up to 9:35 seconds, the world's record which had been set by him and held jointly with B. J. Wefers. That same year he covered the "two-twenty" in 21.1-25 seconds. Drew started again shortly after the meet only to find himself the victim of paralysis of the muscles. This caused him to give up his studies, which he later resumed at Drake university, taking up a law course. This spring he again and although failing to qualify in the games his chances seemed still better at the Conference, so he was sent here. This afternoon he seemed like the Drew of old. All his old cunning in running over Scholz demonstrates that he is still in the game. He was wore of such a nature that they left no doubt in the minds of the spectators and the great runner was warmly applauded when his number was hung in the second in the second trial of the hundred in the carol of Illinois beat him, but in the first got away with his usual burst of speed and held it till within finishing distance of the tape, then with renewed vigor he breathed the tape an easy way in despite the strong wind which blew in the faces of all runners. Scholz pulled in second, with Collier of Indiana third. In the first trial of the "220" Drew placed for the finals, taking second place, and then in the finals he beat Collier of Indiana finish second with Scholz third. Lewis, the other member of the Race who represented Chicago in the mile, failed to place. Hooper Knocks Out Gardner Brunswick, Ga.

THE CROSS BLACK NURSE "Twas only a note from her boy 'over there.' That brought tears of joy and a half-smothered prayer: That spanned in a twinkling the ocean so wide. And brought—in her day dreams—her boy to her sute. I can't tell you, mother," he penned, "where to write. 'I'll be with our boys, though, wherever they dight.' He went with our boys to the thick of the fray. But failed to respond to the roll-call that day. JOHN M'CORMACK, one of the best and most popular present day singers, made the country ring with the beautiful song "I Hear You Calling Me." There is only one John McCormack, and he does not have to put his ear to the ground to know when he senses the wish of the American public when he repeats, "I hear you calling me." There is a world of satisfaction in the thought that your work and worth are appreciated. It spurs one on to do better and nobler things. Among the thousands of young women who have fitted themselves for the profession of nursing, few, if any, have had occasion to say to the Red Cross Association, "I hear you calling me." The fact that our boys at the front or at home receive the same attention from the white nurses that their paler brothers receive does not change the situation. Our young women demand and are entitled have representation commensurate with their numbers. They want take an active part in bringing the blush of health back to the faces the sick and wounded in our army. We want to be a part and parcel every movement for the betterment of mankind, and especially are we anxious to play our part in this fight for democracy, which, we trust, has no color line. It is universally admitted that the Red Cross has a big and noble purpose, but when all the facts in the case are known, we find the cause, seemingly, little and narrow in its administration. This organization claims to minister to all classes and conditions of humanity, and it lives up to its claim, but in ministering to humanity are they willing that all races shall do their part in this noble work? When information is sought as to why such conditions exist, the question, if answered at all by those locally in authority, carries no information further than "You had better take that matter up with the authorities in Washington." What the powers that be in Washington have to say about the matter is, as yet, unrecorded in our office. Who doubts the truth of the assertion that as a nurse the Colored woman has no superior? They have been told by even the most prejudiced that they were especially fitted for the nursing profession. Unskilled as they were, the South welcomed them; as skilled as they are, North, East and West demand the services at at wage in many instances higher than that tendered the white nurse. Why are they not welcomed in the critical times by an organization whose sole duty is the relief of suffering humanity? Does the idea prevail that a dying white soldier, or even one slightly wounded, would scorn the succor tendered by a Colored nurse? If the Colored nurse is a fixture in every white home that can afford her, why raise the bars against her doing a larger duty? The Red Cross is not, as we understand it, a social organization, and women from every station of life enroll under its banner. It is and should be serious business they are undertaking, and no aid, whether it be financial or physical, should they reject. The public in general—and that includes us—give freely of their means to support this worthy organization. We not only have given of our means, but are willing to give ourselves to the cause. Is it to be wondered at that we have "cross black nurses" because of the attitude of the Red Cross nurses? Let it be understood now and forever public organizations of whatever nature must give us place, for we pay the freight the same as the other fellow, and the Red Cross Association is no exception to the rule. Drying Up Things ONCE UPON A TIME 75 per cent are occupied by drug stores. The traffic outlid the drugstores in the matter of the vehicle, the wheel of the vehicle would profit must make the traffic set in some two or three years out ever since. Wise ones ran to save their plants to manufacturing nonfood would have the ban of adhitionists; while they were persistent in comparison with those who advocate. So the intelligent men and women who are for nationalism is the man all evidence tended to show is sponsible for the downfall of so many and they swung over to the "Drusy." Ursace of a particular bay, that law required for nationalism is the way it would seem they are nearly ready for Thirty-six states comprising the amendment if the constitution of the United States prohibits the liquor. Louisiana is the only state the amendment. The number necessary Eleven of this number have already deigned, in boost for the duration of the amendment, making products that deines. Local and state prohibition has national scope. "TOMMY" SWAN REACHES THE FIFTY MARK ONCE UPON A TIME 15 per cent of the prominent city corners were occupied by drug stores. The traffic in liquor became so profitable dealers outlid the druggists in the matter of rent and took possession of practically every good corner. But the wheel of fortune is ever on the turn, and those who drive them may lay while the sun shines. The reaction in the liquor traffic set in some two years ago, the bottom has been falling out ever since. Wise ones ran to cover, and if they were distillers, they put their plants in manufacturing nomadicoholic beverages and other products that would not come under the ban of public disfavor. The credit for this state of affairs cannot be given entirely to the prohibitionists; while they were persistent and aggressive, their voice was weak. In the mid-1980s, they advocated its right as a legitimate business. In the intelligent men and women who supported it, the prohibition game the self-made query is: is man benefited or harmed by its all evidence denied to show that liquor more than any other agency was resented? And is anyone else more people, their better self asserted itself and they swing over to the "Drives" than is strong enough in favor of a particular law, that law is a dead letter. When they are ready for national prohibition they will have it, and from present indications it will be ready for national prohibition ready for it. The thirty-six states constitution must declare in favor of the amendment if the constitution of the United States is to be amended vide for national prohibition of the manufacture and sale of intoxicating liquor at the first state up to that date has refused to ratify the amendment. The thirty-six states constitution is thirty-six. Eleven of this number have already signed their wills, another the demon, at least for the duration of the war. If food will win the demon, waste grain making products that destroy rather than build up human tissue, and state prohibition have been successful—why not give it a national scope? Philadelphia, Pa., June 14, An- nouncement has been made that the well-known public-spirited citizen, Jerome Thomas Waltore, Sobb Sawb, half-court- birthday, he avers in his half-court- ment that by the more working of fate he has managed to keep alive, out of monitorship—and to help keep old- er Wilson, Chicagoans, sent congratulations, wishing him fifty more years of continual happiness, and further as- sistance he spent out of Chicago and vicinity. Kills Playmate With Gun Kansas City, Mo., June 14.—The danger of leaving children play with deadly weapons brought sorrow to the homes of two Kansas City families when Earl Robinson, age 7, 27th and Vine streets, found an old gun and毅ly aimed at Hilda Ora Hackley, a phymapthe. The gun was discharged and a load of shot ended the life of the little girl.

Galloway Heard in Recital at Des Moines Des Moines, Ia., June 14.—Miss Frances Goldwyn graduate of Chicago Musical College, Miss Perse Allen, former teacher of Highland Park College, gave a piano recital at St. Paul's church here last week. The famous mute quartet of St. Paul choir also assisted Miss Galloway. HER BOY CHICAGO DEFENDER It has been observed in the general educational system of this city that evidences of a disposition have been discovered to restrict teachers of our race to schools in localities inhabited by our own people. It seems to be a concerted action by those in authority to directly interest themselves in causing the removal of a teacher of our race who has by merit of her application received an appointment to instruct in a school largely attended by white students. From the surface of what has been gleaned from such acts it clearly indicates that there is a well devised plan on foot to inject into the school system of Chicago, which has heretofore been handled in a fair and impartial manner, a spirit of racial enmity, having as its basic principle—lim Crowism. The schools which have been directly affected by this insidious propaganda are the Raymond, Doolittle and Keith, the latter of which on numerous occasions has been the shelter-house for such teachers as have become the victims of this nefarious conspiracy. The cunning and designing manner with which a teacher is removed from one certain section to another is usually flavored with the expression that it will be to her early advantage to secure a permanent situation. This, of course, rescues the real mission of their removal from the observation of the ones removed who can only see the possibility of making their positions permanent. We note that these removals affect only teachers of our race and the schools herein named. Our advice to the teacher who is confronted with such a proposition is to waive her rights to accept permanent positions offered in districts where Jim Crowism has been carefully planned, and to await the opening of such other permanent positions in other sections of the city, where the merit of her application entitles her to serve as well. EDITOR'S MAIL Corsicana, Tex., June 1, 1915-Mr. W. Allison Sweeney, Chicago. Mr. Dear Sir: Here is something of interest and importance, and whatever you want to see, we are on week. A committee of our best Race people have called on me since the happening and asked that it be sent to me. My people here rate you one of the greatest men of the day, and I promised I would make a note of it and send it to you. Please say something to you and then to them to watch for it in the Defender. Just a word from you is as helpful to our people as a spring shower to a flower garden. They and I feel that anyone is able to give you more than on earth, but God will reward you. Do please, let us hear from you through the Defender. Who knows and who will say what is right. I am sending this as it was handed to me from one of the committee. Please read it with care and give it a very careful reading. This school teacher we speak of is a "white boy" like myself. Very sincerely. MR.S. (Note.-The above is but one of many communications reaching Mr. Sweeney, my teacher, maturity, however, from the South. While he is deeply moved by these evidences of appreciation, he must beg to remind his correspondents that although his strength, not to mention the great demand upon the space of the Defender, touching upon every movement and subject of interest to the Race he has strength, not to mention the great globe, each of which demands its day in court, and that the Defender, shining, fighting for all the Race, everywhere, is striving valiantly to accept. Mr. Sweeney wishes he could respond to all worthy requests made of him, but he cannot. Also, much that he has received, would be of little interest to the Race as a whole. San Quentin, Cal., June 6, 1918— Hon. Robert S. Abbott—Dear Sirs This little missive will inform you of the importance of your service.

I am a man of great ranged and you have a space that you could place same—in other words, I am not asking too much, I don't need it, and I am not possible, and want to send the Defender's stuff my best wishes and the cartoon of the two Americans. Respect them and ENDERSON, 20610 San Quentin. P. S.-The cartoon of the two Americans, I must say, is the best yet. There are about 180 Race men here and they all have a chance to read the paper. There are several others who get at once, of course, it is passed until it cannot be read have nine boys that get my paper when through. Col.

War Department to force issuance. Washington, D. C. June 14-18. Many inquiries are coming from the Colored people of every section of the country and from the Colored society. Society is doing to relieve the needs of the Negro soldiers in the camps and contemptions of this country and being given to the colored warriors who are batting on the fields of France. Submitted letter from Mr. Joseph R. Hamlen, of the national headquarters of the American Red Cross Society, in answer to an inquiry sent by a special assistant to the secretary of war, describes somewhat in detail the character of the work the organization is doing, the things of vital importance, that the service of the Red Cross are being condemned to white and Colored officers and men alike, and without distinction." The letter of Mr. Hamlen follows: The American Red Cross: Washington, D. C. June 5, 1918. Mr. Emmett J. Scott. Special Assistant, War Dept. Washington, D. C. Date: Mr. Scott: "I beg to ac- knowledge of May 29th, in which you ask for information as to what the Red Boss has already done in the war of September 11th, in this country for the Negro soldiers. I am glad to be given this opportunity to tell you of our work in respect of the respect rendering the same service to Colored men that it is to white troops, distinction whatever would be made in the service of the enlisted men. Sweaters and other knitted goods and com- panies have been distributed to white men, and I am ready to render the same service to the families of white and Colored alice, emergency supplies are furnished to the hospitals, our men, who do communication work, write letters at the request of collested about distinction because of color. Nearly 10,000 Sweaters to Colored Drafters in Ten Dave Daughters in Ten Days I read a book about the importance of service rendered to a large number of Colored drafted men last fall. They arrived at one of the large army camps during a large army attack. The general in command of the division appealed to us and we were able to furnish him with 2,500 sweaters within a few hours days. Practically all of the first 2,500 of these sweaters went to colored troops, and a great majority of the ten thousand went to us. I hope you will state with as much emphasis as possible that our constant efforts in behalf of the soldiers and sailors on duty in the United States, both of this country and in Europe, are rendered to white and Colored officers and enlisted men alike.

THE VENEREAL DRIVE GONORRHEA IN WOMEN The Black Peril are innocent infection—many of them believe that an natural thing to some of them dischure from their genital organs. Many lice or ophthora (whites) as an innocent infestation, but causes 100, the original cause of lice or ophthora was goiter. A. B. Gonorrheal infection on the part of women is fection on the DR. WILLIAMS part of women is innocently. The use of a syringe that has been used by one having genoreal infection might infect a perfectly innocent person on the part of the doctor or nurse often often been the source of infection; the use of squalol oil, dirty fingers could carryers of genoreal infection, however, the greatest preventive of genoreal infection outside of the sexual congress act. The genoreal infection of an innocent woman, according to the annual movement of one recent authority, is largely traceable to the husband within the woman, to a man outside of the marital boundary. Results of Gonorrheal Infection in Female Sterility—inability to have children—is often due to an old gonorrheal infection. The gonorrheal germ travels through the policie organs, involving the urethra, and inhaling up a pus inflammation in the tubes, and this pus inflammation extending further into the ovaries, producing what the doctor calls a tuboacute infection. Often in order to save the poor viverra, the doctor formed by her doctor that she has pus tubes and a diseased ovary which must be removed in order to save her life. She goes innocently to the operating room, and the lamb, to have herself mutilated and the result of the operation for gonorrheal infection. Often gonorrheal infection results in a double infection, so that both tubes and ovaries must be re- Dr. Bentley Makes Good Speech Young People's Lyceum Gives 510 to the Work's Association Homer Phillips to Run for Justice of the Peace St. Louis, Mo., June 14 -- Friday at St. Louis was clair to learn that Attorney Homer G.

His friends believe he will be loyal support of the people and be finally nominated and elected. The primary will be held in August.

CHICAGO JUNE 15,1918 moved. When will the day come when we all do away with a double standard of female and male standards by one standard by which male and female shall be measured and estimated? In our bounding duty to treat the child in the difficult times of this terrible disease. Many a young woman marches on the arm of a husband from the altar down the aisle, and the time of the wedding march, happy and healthy, to never enjoy another well comes down within a work and sometimes within a few days with what for a better term the doctor calls "Honeymoon perioditis in a well majority of cases means gonorrheal infection, but before the people were not well enough the real meaning, aim and purpose of the crusade against venereal disease, great Black Peril, the "Happiness Killer" producer of "Honeymoon Appendixes." Young women, brides, mothers and fathers, too, for that matter, were perfect to submit themselves or to have their day spent in operation for "Honeymonge Appendicitis" or any other sickness one might wish to term it, so long as the name is a secret. Much of the children in families where children are desired on the part of the poor mother (although the husband is often aware of her sickness) is due to "Honeymonge Appendicitis" or "Honeymonge Appendicitis" which sterilizes the male side of the house or sterilizes or unsex the female side of the house. We know that over 50 percent of all the pelvic operations formed upon young mothers have been rendered necessary by gonorrhea infection contracted from the husband. In order to have better homes, healthily, dangerously, dangerous idea out of our heads of our young men "having to sow wild oats" before getting married and settling in the house, the reason that by the time they have生了孩子 wild oats they have become infected with the gonorrheal germ, and unless they have undergone a long, systematic course of treatment for the same they can give their young wives gonorrhea. Many poor brides take the *er* *edvow* for *better* or for *worse* who follow these young men who have sworded their march away so happy with full intention their vow for *better* never dreaming that they have in the future only a long life of invalidation, operations, pain, suffering—and for the worst" is instead of "for the better," as a result of their "honey-moon Appendicitis." DEDICATED TO J. ASHLEY STEVENS We owe an apology to the reading public for permitting ourselves to acknowledge the presence in reportorial articles a notice in the literary field, who accidentally lives and thrives off of free space offered or permitted him by the press, and hallucinations have been found in Colleyer's Eye, a weekly race horse form sheet. He tries to deal with group questions, which is entirely foreign not only to his training but his mental observation as well. For instance, he selected a group of people he mentioned paper what he, no doubt, mentioned group of people easy of attack and sought to build the foundation of his upon race antagonism. He failed. No enlightened member of either race would permit so foul a mind to consider a situation. Ashley Stevenscher in one of his articles that Chief Schuetter was called to the city because the general infux of our people from the race ways which would result from this wholesale incoming. This was branded at the City Hall as a malicious lure coming from lips behind the face ways which would result from a brain that was seemingly diseased. He further stated in a series of articles that a number of white men had been housed by a man of our Race on the South Side afraid to leave their homes at night. This, too, when investigated, suffered the same fate as the Chief Schuetter who had been night after night on various streets approaching respectable women of our Race in an ungentlemenly manner. Of course, this cannot be expected of course, this cannot be guided by the propazanda he advocates as a typical representative of that element of white men in the South who would in their faces with groomed point and rapeseed their own women and chance it to a number of the submerged tent.
