GEORGE ELLIS NAMED FOR CHICAGO JUDGESHIP SHOOTING ENDS JEALOUS QUARREL EXTRA Husband of Thirteen Wives Dies in Southern Illinois ```markdown ``` DEFENDER POLICY WINS AT LAST City Hall Forces Show "Real Democracy" in Slate Making By A. N. Fields Fifteen thousand people jammed and crowded the Coliseum last Monday night to witness the nomination of the city and county tickets of the Republican party, led by Mayor William Hale Brown, to the office of senator, and drawn from the ranks of creed, color and race. It was truly a representative political ticket, as well as was the gathering who assembled to do the nominating. At 8 o'clock the meeting was called to the room of John B. Brady. From then on until 11 o'clock the program was replete with interest. It represented an old-time Republican convention, such as was seldom witnessed at the Coliseum. The nominations of interest to us were of John B. French, of the Twenty-fifth ward, county commissioner, a business man of high standing and a citizen of Chicago. Hon. George W. Fills, author of international reputation, a distinguished traveler and sociologist, was named as candidate for the nomination. He is at present assistant corporation counsel for the city of Chicago. John B. French Nominated The Fred Douglass Protective Association, which has manifested considerable interest in Hon. John B. French, no doubt "go over the top" in their efforts to improve the safety of the whole is one of the most representative tickets ever nominated in Chicago and will be the prevailing ticket in the fall election. Congressman William F. Mason delivered the speech during his claims for re-election. He recounted the virtues of the Republican party and called upon his hearers to give unstated support to the nomination and election of the entire ticket of the Mayor William Hale Thompson delivered an able address, dealing at length with the trustees, and that conduct, with reference to his admirals. He said for sixteen years he had been against the Tribune and Tribune family, and that, regardless of office, such would be his future course. Defender Policy Victorious The nomination of George W. Ellis for judge is further evidence of the continued friendly attitude of the Thompson administration and binds the Race politically to that party and faction in the state. He is also faithful to men of mhood. His selection was timely. He has held public office as secretary of the American legation to Liberia for several years, during which time he acquitted himself in an exceptionally creditable manner. The citizen of Chicago have long felt the influence of D. C., could boast of a Municipal court judge who has served under all administrations that it was high time that Chicago, with its boasted political preference, could enjoy the same distinction. The question of the nomination of one of the finest judges in the Chicago Defender for several years, and the Defender feels that in this instance this selection is a fitting consumption of the manifest interest this paper has taken in the fight for Municipal judge. Every citizen should exercise every possible effort to see the ticket goes "over the top" in the fall election. Solos were sung by a number of celebrities, among them being our own George Garner, who, on invitation of Hon. Samuel A. Ettelson, returned to (Continued on page 7) Marion, Ill., July 5—"Uncle John" Dempsey, the man of many wives—he had thirteen—is dead, having passed away just four days before the celebration of his hundredth birthday anniversary.

And it is said that Uncle John' in separating from some of his wives, was a bit averse to bothering with divorce count proceedings before taking another bride. The first wife of "Uncle John," who came to Illinois in 1892, was Miss Ollie Hamilton and the second Miss Elizabeth Groves, both of whom died before he had remarried. His third venture with Widow Allen of Great Springs and then he journeyed to Missouri where a romance with Widow Hax culminated in his fifth marriage. But it was not long until interest lagged and "Uncle John" married another Missouri widow. Later he went to Tennessean town, where he remained there until seized by a desire to return to Illinois, where he met and married in Harrisburg, wife number eight, who was Widow Murray. They lived together eight years. After serving in the Union Army during the Civil war, "Uncle John," a young grass widow, who still lives in Paradise, "Uncle John" said frankly that he could not recall the names of all his wives as his memory failed him. He was the father of two children. Mrs. Rhoda Winchester, a daughter, is living in Idahoville, Moe, and another child in Annapolis. Always practical and systematic, "Uncle John" purchased his casket, one of solid oak, some seven years ago and sat by with a critical eye while the undertaker trimmed it to match his taste. He wanted to take the casket home, but the family roared its pest. The "Uncle John" had his grave prepared in Goreville cemetery, building a neat house over it. The top piece of the monument is a lamb carved from marble. Soldiers Greet Simmons San Antonio, Tex., July 5.—The mightiest ovation ever given to any civilian visitor to the camps of Texas was given Roscoe Conkling Simmons and he attended at Camp Travis Friday, June 25.

The boys got so enthusiastic over the collar and entire camp, and by the time the address got around to "the only flag with stars in it" the white soldiers had packed all the open space around the pavilion. Col. Simmons concluded his speech the soldiers literally went wild. The bank struck up the "Beau Street Blues." A dozen soldiers grabbed the orator, hoisted him to their shoulders and went through the camp like madmen. The whole Race contingent joined in their dance. When finished, the soldiers agreed to deposit Roscoe in his waiting automobile he looked like he had been to Berlin to deliver a message from Wilson to the kaiser.

THE NATIONAL LEAGUE ON URBAN CONDITIONS AMONG NEGROES 2303 SEVENTH AVENUE, NEW YORK CITY WE SECOND THE MOTION Memphis, Tenn. June 29, 1918. Memphis, Tennessee. June 29, 1918. President Wilson, Washington, D.C., came to the fact of the brutal assault which has existed throughout the United States of America. I now feel well justified in taking great pleasure as a citizen under the Stars and Stripes of this country, and in speaking to your speech of July 4, 1918, in a few words condemning lynching and burning, and to make it a federal crime for any one to commit such distroyal crimes, and many other illegal things which have been committed throughout the United States of America.

War Department Will Brook No Discrimination All Cases of Alleged Unfairness Reported Will Be Fully Investigated—Secretary Baker Says "Any Wrong Done Will Be Righted" Washington, D. C., July 5.—The war department has made it clear that it will tolerate no discrimination against Colored drafttees by the local draft boards in any section of the country and that cases of alleged unfairness will be fully investigated and corrected by the departmental authorities. Secretary Baker in a recent interview, speaking with reference to alleged discrimination against Colored drafttees, said in part: "I have heard that draft boards in adjoining counties take a different view of practically identical facts with regard to Colored men, but the answer is that the view is provided directly by the President all that is necessary for anybody to do who thinks there is a grievance, to point it out to the war department and it will be investigated. If the draft boards act unfairly we will correct their action. The department will brook no discrimination and any case of alleged or suspected discrimination brought to our attention, will be investigated and any wrong done will be righted." Brooklyn, N.

Henington In a fit of jealous rage Mrs. Ellen Henington, (white), 3807 Rhodes avenue, shot and fatally wounded William Henington, 3600 Wabash avenue, last Friday evening at 9 o'clock at the Rhodes avenue residence. People who lived in the vicinity averred that the couple had been estranged for some time, so the police have been seen to visit the residence.

It was rumored that another woman St. Louis Postmaster Seems to Practice Discrimination CHICAGO DEFEENDER NEWS SERVICE St. Louis, Mc. July 5.—There is every reason to believe Postmaster Selph is opposed to the appointment of Colored men to positions in the St. Louis postmaster office, as various examinations for clerk and carrier, and so far as the public knows, only one appointment has been made since he became postmaster six years ago. Since January there have been a number of appointments made, but the most notable of these was an on account of color was his failure to appoint a Race man who five months ago stood number seven on the eligible register, yet his name was certified to Mr. Selph three times and then dropped from the eligible list. The most recent on account of color was under the rules, the peculiar thing about his failure to appoint this man is, he was a Democrat, a man of Al standing in the city, well educated, had an average of 87.20 and had the political friendship of prominent members of the loyalty meeting recently created quite a stir among the Race people of the city because he stood 'up so squarely apparently, for a square deal for Colored people. He spoke of the American nation as though all creeds and colors were lost sight in the fight for freedom, which water he spoke his convictions, but his actions before and since that time belie his words. As badly as help is needed in all branches of the government service, it seems the men of influence would seek to utilize the far working force of the United States, will done the United States will be unable to attain its maximum of efficiency as one of the allied nations.

SATURDAY SUBSCRIBE $1,520 TO PRICE FIVE CENTS GESHIP RREL Roman Fires bullets Into enington had somewhat attracted the attention of Henington, and that on several occasions Mrs. Henington had questioned his sincerity. It is said by several persons that the "mystery woman" was the cause of their separation. As a Defender representative of this story, he defended the term it. It was, however, noticeable that a well arranged design was being worked out to show that the shooting was an accident. This was evidenced by being referred to at Cottage Grove avenue station as the "accident shooting." At the Provident hospital, where Henington was taken after the shooting in a semi-conscious condition, he made a statement to the effect that he and Mrs. Henington had been friends for quite awhile but they had been separated for some time, and on the night of the shooting she called him on phone and in a friendly conversation widened the gap between apartment. He reluctantly went on behind the closed doors the murderous assault was made. After making this statement he lapsed into unconsciousness. Physicians claim that Henington's recovery is doubtful, as the right lung has been lacerated with a bullet, and another entering the back. The third shots all of which reached their marrials, robs the story of any elements of accident and apparently destroys the possible alibi that is being so cleverly arranged. Information has been sought as to whether they were legally married, but could not be found. All rumors tend to show, however, that they were merely sweethearts. Soldiers in France CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE St. Louis; Mo. July 5; Ernest Brown, a first lieutenant in the national army somewhere in France," wrote to his friend, Robert B.

All of the boys of the United States have been and will con- tinue to do all in their power to uphold the honor, trust and confidence reposed in them." Chicago Defender News Service St. Louis, Mo., July 5.—Attorney Homer G.

Dismisses Drew Color Line prison at Leavenworth, Kan. Capt. Rowan was charged with having entirely refused to obey an order issued by the brigade commander order for a troop formation, because of such a formation would place men of color in the same line with white men. It is asserted that the dismissal of Capt. Rowan does not entirely exempt him from military service, and that in the event he is taken in the draft call the dishonorable record serves as a barrier to promotion, and he can only serve as a private. Lleut. Hall was mess officer of the 248th infantry and deserted his organization late in February. He had charge of the mess fund and was short about $7,000. Rowan's case created nine short and tough to protect his stand on the grounds that he brewed a southerner and the formation of the two races on the same principles was against his personal wishes and customs.

Y., July 5.—On Tuesday evening, June 25, an organization was formed between half a dozen prominent League of the 22nd Assembly District East New York, for the purpose of leasing and buying houses to be rented to members of the Race only. We have numerous names at present. One of the members of the new organization told a Defender, reporter that it would probably be a year or more before they would start buying houses of those who had bought of houses were concerned, as they had started on a very small but sure plan and had to be incorporated. The report stated that that company was establishing a present York had prompted them to start such an organization to better the housing of the Race after the war, and that they would be the institution of like organization forming in various parts of the country. It was not many years ago that several Jewish landlords and real estate buyers in the East New York section and they walked along the streets so soliciting Race people to move into their houses; today the same agents, taking care of a living color experience, are making a living color experience, numbers of people who have since moved to this section by renting them an apartment at a certain amount of money in the East New York section how they can make more money by dispossessing the tenant and getting another one at a higher rental. As a result of this many of our Race are moving to the East New York section how they move to a different section of the city they are to a different section of secure places through these same vicious agents. When the tenant finally heeded the request of the tenant, the agent is up to and protests a $2 more raise in rent, the landlord's mind is poisoned against the tenant, and especially so if the landlord happens to move the landlord is a newcomer into the neighborhood the method that they should rent their apartments to members of their own race is usually used by the race. Race brother has a hard time to secure a fast growing section for better housing among members of the Race, as the one started by the group of 100 per cent of the race, and they can rest assured of the full support of the World's Greatest Weekly.

It gives greater satisfaction than any paper I get two and three Sunday papers, but they are never read, while our "Pride of Our Race" (as my wife terms it) is read over and over. I am a Myrtle Avenue car, coming from New York, was reading my paper, the Chicago Defender, and two ladies asked me to sell it to them.

When in New York REGISTER AT The Chicago Defender OFFICE 40 W. 135TH STREET NEW YORK, July 5. The following signed article is an interesting and illuminating expose of the methods in vogue at local theaters. After huy-ger the story, Defender readers should think over and use the ask themselves, "What are you going to do about it?" An article appeared in a local paper last week under this heading. Many of the authors really be termed merely forerunners to the man here related. The most prominent question asked by the friends and admirers of the Colored performers in this neighborhood? "The answer given by us is, 'They won't pay anything like my salary.' This should pay us in their houses and management fee is nothing like that asked by theaters in Harlem, theaters that are supported by Colored patrons. Still, we are not open to paying us for instance, after having played all of the leading vaudeville theaters in the United States playing Colored acts at the Lincoln theater which prevailed I had. The owner of the theater referred me to her manager, who said he had never heard of our team. Can you imagine such a remark, even in sarcasm, let alone in reality? This simply goes to prove his inefficiency. Cook and we have been working for a vaudeville booking agencies for managers in the United States. Yet the Lincoln theater manager never heard of us. This remark might have been the reason for a monetary consideration for inferior to our regular salary. It has been proven that theaters can and will play standard acts and pay them their wages which has not played the Grand, Chicago, the Standard, Philadelphia, the Howard in Washington and others. More Race Acts Needed Another fact to be considered in this: Would the patrons of white theaters stand for five Race acts to one white set in their houses? If you think they would be convinced and be convinced. Then why should we not have one white act and as many as possible possibly one own people's sake? be played vaudeville since 1800 and have never yet played a white house where more than one or possibly two Colored actors were present. A rumor is that the owner of the Lincoln theater has been ridiculed by her white friends for investing her money in a Colored theater and that her friends have been ridiculed by her. Let her, too, be proud of the Colored people for the success she has obtained through them, and above all let her show her appreciation by paying enough salary to standard Colored people. The Colored people of their own people, who are so anxious to see us. If the present manager cannot secure Colored acts there are competent Colored managers who can secure them, which leaves no marriages. If the present manager creates the impression that the Lincoln theater should employ and pay for acts not worthy of a standard salary, nor do we insist that acts of charity be worth say $200 on the Keith and Proctor, Loew, Fox or any other circuit, are surely worth that much or more in their own neighborhood. Lafayette Theater's Sunday Nights The Lafayette theater must be given credit for the number of Race people who employ in the front of the house and in the back of the stage, but it is the Sunday night shows and the poor pictures they exhibit on these nights which we cen- tain to see. We have a picture and six good acts and cut out some of the old time pictures that are not worth looking at? Then he will see the difference in his Sunday night shows from the race people staying away from the Race people staying Sundays that they may give better acts and pictures. Once the manager was stuck for an act one Sunday and he wanted to see what we wanted and he told me that he could get four acts for what we wanted, and I guess he did, for I went around that night and it was the time we wanted to see that I want to say that the salary we requested was the same as we get at any of the white theaters we play. We have to tell the Race people of Harlem know that they are not getting what they should get at the theaters in this locality. (Signed) COOK & STEVENS.

The nomination is to assume definite shape at a convention of New Jersey Republicans to be held here in a few weeks. The opposition to Gov. Edge among the men has been growing for over a year, but it reached its climax the day before the governor refused to grant a hearing to those whose requisition was demanded by the governor of Alabama, the charge that the man had violated a labor contract, and that man's friends claim that he was not given a square deal and that in any event a hearing before the prisoner should have been granted authority should have been granted as a matter of ordinary right. Such hearings are usually granted and the prisoner is refused when prisoners ask for them. The coming state conference at Atlantic City is to take up various counts in the indictment against Gov. Edna. The governor's lieutenant, "like" Nutzman at Atlantic City, who claims to control the governor, vote for Edge, is to be shown that he does not carry the Republicans of New Jersey around in his vest pocket.

Extract From Resolutions Adopted The following is an extract from the resolutions adopted by the conference: We the thirty-one representatives of the Negro press which has a circulation of more than two copies, principally among the Colored of America, and representatives of other activities, wish to affirm, first of all, OUR UNALTERABLE BELIEF THAT THE DEFEAT OF THE GERMAN GOVERNMENT AND WHAT IT TOO MAY PARAMOUNT IMPORTANCE TO THE WELFARE OF THE WORLD IN GENERAL AND TO OUR PEOPLE IN PARTICULAR. "We deem it hardly necessary. In view of the unattained record of Negro Americans, to reaffirm our loyalty to our country and our readiness to make every sacrifice to win this war. We wish, however, as students and THE CONFERENCE OF THE NATIONAL AFFAIRS guides of public opinion among our people, to use our overy endeavor to keep these 12,000,000 people at the highest pitch, not simply of passive loyalty, but of active, enthusiastic and sacrificing participation in the war. "We are not unmindful of the recognition of our American citizenship in the draft, of the appointment of Colored officers, of the designation of cadets and officers of the government departments and to other members of a broadened public opinion; nevertheless we believe today that justifiable grievances of the Colored people are producing not disloyalty, but an attitude of disloyalty, even the best efforts of their leaders may not be able always to guide unless they can have the active and sympathetic co-operation of the national government. German propaganda is never better apparent indifference of our own government may be dangerous. * * * "The American Negro does not expect to have the whole Negro problem settled immediately; he is not seeking to hold up a striving country and want personal grievance pushing irrelevant personal grievance pushing loyalty; he is not disposed to catalog, in this tremendous crisis, all his complaints and disabilities; he is more than willing to do his full share in helping win the war for democracy and therefore, his full share of the fruits thereof; but he is not asked to ask for that minimum of consideration which will enable him to be an efficient fighter for VICTORY." Social and Educational Diversions on the occasion for the distinguished citizens provided a series of entertainments which included, among other interesting things, a theater party fifty at the Howard theater Wednesday morning, a presentation of "The Divorce Question" of Quality Amusement company of New York city; a smoker and luncheon on Thursday evening in the assembly room of the museum with Attorney W.

On Thursday afternoon Capt. Arthur S. Spingarn presented at the Army Spingarn museum a highly instructive moving plaque on the Flight, emphasizing the value of health in the army and depicting the dangers to which soldiers are subjected in the matter of disease and recreational centers for recreational centers for wholesome and moral diversions for the soldiers in camps and cantonments.

Number of Lynchings Tuskegee, Ala., July 5.—According to the records kept by the Division of Records and Research of Tuskegee Institute, there have been in this period 35 lynchings. This is 21 more than the number—14—for the first six months of 1917, and 10 more than the first six months of 1916. Of these lynchings 34 were men of our Race and one was white. Eight of those put to death were charged with the crime of rape. Of those put to death by this horrible method 3 were women. The states in which these lynchings occurred and the number for each state are as follows: Alabama, 1; Arkansas, 1; Florida, 1; Georgia, 8; Illinois, 1; Louisiana, 8; Mississippi, 2; North Carolina, 1; South Carolina, 4; Tennessee, 4; Texas, 7. Instead of this wholesale murder decreasing it is apparent that the ravage of the German culture has taken form in certain parts of the South.

It isla play playleave with startlingism as well as heart interest, and is one that not only carries a message but shows the fine art of "getting even," as practiced by who had been wrongly convicted of a crime with a band of high grade crooks PETER after her release from prison. That the story is a tenable one is true and true, but the group as it ever was by the great road shows which have presented it all over the country with unparalleled success, there is a murder and the result is a huge amount of inefficient amount to make the thrills come thick and fast. In the extracting of a concession there is a murder and the fatal shot there is enough television to suit the most exacting, and the roughest the entire piece there is a world of fine acting by the whole cast, from these movies to there are many upsets that come mutilating the marrow in the bones—its witness the play of lights in the millionaire's mansion on the night of the robbery, the robbery through execuable, faltering of a faw of the lines, a thing which did not cause ally lack of interest and which should be overlooked when the magnitude of the offender made are taken into consideration. As Mary Turner, the persecuted, Cleo Desmond has a role which fits her style to a "T" and played it in a most compelling manner; at times, she had opportunities to do the strong-gest sort of work, and the same can be said of Andrew Bishop in the character of the department store keeper's son.

His role is the scene with the inspector of Police and the attention and as the Inspector, Clarence Muse repeated the fine work offered by him in former productions. He chose to play as the secretary in the first act, and opposite the sort of character impersonated in the play of last week, and few in the audience recognized the close friend person who did Mrs. Kennedy show him. Williams is versatile and there are thousands of the feminine of Chicago who would give all their earthly possessions for her knowledge of the art of sculpture, and the attorney for the shop-keeper and Walter Robinson as the lawyer are both excellent and the same can be said for the work of H. L. Pryor as the detective in the play of it well, and Lillian Gillman stool-pigeon and Iris Hall as the handsome housemaid. Carlotta Freeman has a difficult part as a crooked shopgirl and plays it well, and Lillian Gillman characterization of Agnes Lynch a confidence woman. As a whole, "Within the Law" is a creditable performance and before this review reaches the show is running along as silk as grease. Special attention must be called to the handsome manner in which these plays are being staged; the settings and coupled with the elegant costuming lends to the fine work done by the Lafayette Players. The Grand "The Heart Breakers" is the title of a farce musical comedy which is the basis by Billy Kern as offered at the Grand opening unprecedented success at this time. While the piece is one of Billy's last season hits, it has been rearranged and is entirely different and is unrecognizable to those who viewed it at the comedian's former visit. The story has engaged Billy to keep a weather keeper company with a young man who her parents do not like, and the latter have engaged Billy to keep a weather keeper company with a young girl protection; his efforts in this comedy have bled the large audiences with laughter at every performance so far this week, being one prolonged how from before. Georgia Kelly play the parts of the parents, while James Thomas handles the part of the young man. During this performance, he done in the usual peppery style: "Flirtation," by Beaus and Belles; "Cotton Away," by Billy King; "Cotton Pickle," by Billy King; "Lump of Sugar," by Gertrude Sanders; and "Going to Caroline," by Billy King & Co. Other acts are Jim & Anna Anderson, with a fine musical comedy, an extravaganza and Faris Green, a monologue of infinite jest. The Monogram The billing here this week is of the highest standard and includes three teams and a single. Minstrel-Morris, a skating specialist, stuff in the same approved manner which has marked his former appearances here: Minstrel has a line of skaters who have been in him in the front ranks of performers of his kind. His act is very interesting and novel. Jones & Jones, fresh from the big Monday night audience, had the big Monday night audience with delight at their original monologue before they were really started, and continued right up to their very last performance. The telle and Benton, are back with a group of new and original topical and "shout" song numbers, and were accustomed to the applause, and the bill is completed with Perrin & Toliver, a team with many novel features which include a skater's special place, the act fact, a average fine bill and will continue until the last show on Sunday night. BILLY KING & CO. Mr. Jazz from Dixie is to be the feature offering by the Billy King Theater and the theater host for half of the week, and it is claimed for it to be the greatest laugh producer that Billy has yet offered, which is saying more than an ordinary mouthful. Billy has written some new dialogue and songs for it and if it isn't a great hit the writer misses his guess. Don't fail to see it.

The manager of the States theater, where the great picture will be seen for the three days, Saturday and Sunday, the Monday of next week, captured the prize of the annual theater he secured the big Edison attraction, its contribution to the American war drama, "The Unbeliever," adapted by Raymond McKeen and Margaret dress' novelette, "The Three Things," was directed by-Alan Crossland, and stars Raymond McKeen and Margaret dress' novelette as a brave and charming United States marine as a young Belgian girl enmeshed in the horror and tragedy of the great war. Supporting these principals are Dawin Karrylwynne, an aide in the early military dramas; Eric VonStroheim, and officers and men of the United States Marine Corps. A political and unquestioned military authority is required for the production by the stage setting of the Marine War Cantonment at Quantico. Va., and by the participation of a regimental unit, commanded by their own officers. The plot of the story contains every element of interest, the appeal to national pride and patriotism, the development of a national identity that regards self-sacrifice as a privilege and a great and chivalrous love story. Mr. Paul of the States theater is to be congratulated upon his discrimination by detecting the epic photophy of the year to show the patrons of the popular states. No Race Suicide Cleopatra was a Passionate and Dovoted Mother Her Four Children At a time when the question of race suicide is becoming of national importance, it is of some interest to study the causes that make for the death of a woman, standing in the midst of the business world, lending her help to all social activities, often alleges that the duties of child bearing and child rearing are quite different to take her place in the large world to which her education and her ambition call her. She claims that the duties of child bearing in her own nursery are quite significant to help her become a leader and arbiter in the destinies of men. Let her study the life of Cleopatra the William Fox film version of the great Egyptian queen, who played with love and life as though they were mere counts. Not only was she the center of great magnificence and magnificence all modern women, not only did the fate of Egypt independence from the grasping hand of foes on her shoulders, but she cared for her children and solicited her four children. The oldest of these, Caesarion, was her particular favorite. She took him her to come; she associated him with her to come. Augustus Egypt. In the great temple of Dendara a national monument of his profile figures next to her own as a mother to come; she measured his life for her eldestborn. When life was threatened by Augustus Caesar she took precautions for the child and sent him with his tutor to a faraway place, where such measures did not save the boy, such measures chronicler that Augustus, afraid of the boy's rivalry, had him killed. There was three other children—Cleopatra, Augustus, and Cleopatra. We know little of Alexandra Cleopatra was married to a great African king, and her brother, Potimetry, was cared for the mother's death. There is the great story which comes soon to both the States and Owl theaters. MME. E. A. HACKLEY Atlanta, Ga.

The story of the torture of the dangers that lurk about the corners for every girl, it shows that every woman should be on her guard to fall into the hands of despicable people who profit by her destruction. The story tells of a young girl who is sent to a high school by a man to the threshold of her marriage. Her to New York under the promise of marriage, and when he accomplishes his end, he sells her to still further trouble. This once happy schoolgirl is best told by seeing this wonderful play. This once innocent child is driven from pills and beaten and starved into submission by a band of villains men. The story is inexpressibly sad, but sadder still is the knowledge that she was not, not only in the exceptional case but in hundreds and thousands of others. The author has handled a difficult subject with the utmost delicacy concerning his wife, who tells his story fearlessly he does so without sensationalism. The conditions with which the play deals must be genetically sound, and the plot proved, and with this end in view, plays of this kind do much good. It is a terrible tale written with sincere emotion, and with women to the horror of the situation. Finally, if you are interested in the welfare of your home, you cannot afford to miss seeing "The House of Bondage." WOLFSCALE'S BAND Wolfscale's band, now playing the state of New York with the Barnum Bakele circus, is headed west and will be Chicago, Illinois of the month.

All members send records to the profession and Slim Mason was on the show last week. James Wolfscale sends regards to L. K. Bakert and James A. Harris. A card arrived at the Old Roll Top Desk on Tuesday, announcing the safe landing in France of Slim Mason, so from now on we can figure no other way than that the Huns are in a helluva fix. The Kid was featured in the Tennessee Ten for several seasons and was one of the most popular performers in the profish.

At interacting street corners, you must understand that every one is eager to understand their daily occupation); one should remember that women with babies in their arms and those carrying with them cars must be given preference on and off the road, and pears that a well-reared man would not jump on and on cars pushing others upon the proper consideration, giving them the proper consideration, upon this subject may we not call your attention to, the fact that there are other things to be considered after you have put on your car. While we recognize that all cars are honest, no man should get on the car with his clothes filled with the Stock Yards aroma, or just from some white-haired girl, sit down beside a lady with her best friend, conduct does not show the proper consideration for other people who have your joy.

Cardwell and Randall Cited Cardwell deserves considerable mention for his creditable showing in the two preliminaries and semi-finals in the 2013 show, which he shown this season. A bad start in the final heat gave his good third to Kulthai and his second to third in the $300. He pulled a third in the $300 for honors. In the running high jump he was robbed of a tie for third place with some technicality of ruling an official on the jump. Randall from coming up to expect kept Randall from coming up to expect in the high jump and dash in the long jump. Randall to be rather strong in these specialties. Doolittle Collars Mile Relay. Intense interest was centered in the mile relay, in which event the Doolittle relay showed speed and stamina in their running. The relay was represented by Audubon, Hamlin Gary, playgrounds, with Audubon Doolittle trailed, but Doolittle sympeters had cause to breathe easily when Harrison pulled a good lead, lost by a fairly trot with his nearest rivet, lofting all the way around until he reached home stretch and then he let loose emotion and learning his opponent's mocking laggard. Sideliners then crowded track and carried their ideals to the dressing rooms amid cheers.

Deciding Game Today Two lightning double plays by the locals cut off as many chances for the Gothamians in the ninth stanza the Gothamians made their lone counter. Johnson opened with a long single. Pettus lifted to Baynard. Allen was then hit by the ball and sent back to the next batter, poled out his third hit of the day which scored Johnson. "Sits" Robinson here showed his ability and skill, and he poled out. Still two men remained on the sacks and Joe Hewitt, a bitter of note, was at the bat. The best the latter was at the bat his crucial moment was to bite the ball in healthy swings, which ended the set. On two other occasions did Robinson do some wonderful hearing, consider, the powerful hitting strength of Lance Stephens, made Mettius, a cloister that makes several home runs a season, roll out. In the eight inning after Williams fouled the pitch, the season could not find the plate, pitching balls, which meant two passes.

The last seen of him was when he went down Vernon avenue acting as a curious man. Barber was shifted to bum jum. Hill playing third. To our surprise, the Daytonts had in their line-up who acted as captain of the infield. Lefty Hill appeared in their outfield. Lefty Hill appeared in their team and it is rumored that Chapple owes Lefty eighty bucks. Further, there is some feeling against Chapple teams won't play his team as long as he plays or has anything to do with it. Maybe Uncle Sam can use him. The game was good. The Giants scored in the first game when Barber opened to a shaking foe—bagger and score on the fifth. The Giants scored on Pete Hill's long sacrifice for center. The visitors tied it up on a third, after choices and a single or left in the fifth. The Giants lead in the sixth with a walk to McNell, two outs, a walk to Dock and a double to right by Brown. The Giants count when Duncan was given a life at first on McNell's error and showed to second on Gans' out. Duncan scored on second on Pete Hill's shagged after Gans' out.

BY OUR BOYS With the American Armies in France, July 5.—News is still coming in over the sea that our soldiers are continually repelling the attacks of the Huns on every line in which they are engaged. Latest information from the scene of battles coming by way of the Italian Press: The American Army troops proved their value as fighters in the line east of Verdun on June 12, it is now permissible to state. The Germans attempted a raid in that sector, but were completely repulsed by the Negroes. The boches began a terrific bombardment at one minute after midnight, throwing over between 3,000 and 4,000 kills ranging in size from 67 to 340 kills. The bombardment was concentrated on small areas. Many of the shells made holes from 10 to 15 feet across. Foe Drive Frustrated In the midst of this inferno the Negroes grossly stuck to their posts, operating machine guns and automatic rifles, and keeping up such a steady barrage that the German infantry failed to penetrate the American lines. The Americans miraculously sustained only two wounded. "District was a-workin' with us," explained one. "We all got knocked down lots of tails, but every man got right up." During the attack a crew of a machine gun was bowled over by a minenwerfer attack, which made a 15-foot hole 10 feet from them. They all got up, remounted the gun and continued shooting until it jammed. Then, despite the terrible bombardment, they押枪 gun and again turned it on the Germans. This incident was repeated twice. Fight Like Veterans Both French and American officers reported that the Negroes performed like veterans. They obeyed orders promptly, took risky duties voluntarily and compared well with the best troops on the west front. A German raid cast of St. Die, in Alsace, was repulsed by American machine guns and rifle fire Saturday, the enemy suffering heavy loss. An American lieutenant and 80 men successfully raided German positions in Fontaine wood, near Montdidier, May morning, capturing an officer and 37 men and inflicting severe casualties.

GEORGIA MAYOR BANS CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE Savannah, Ga., July 5.—Information came to Mayor Pierpont yesterday that they have been numerous suspicious calls on debriefing goods for cartridges, and that they deemed it advisable to notify him. The mayor at once directed the police department to notify every dealer in the city of the alleged pawnbroker that the sale of cartridges cease until further orders, and that any dealer found violating this order would be prosecuted and a case made before the council for a revocation of the license. Lieut. Eliews made an exhaustive report to the mayor on the riotous conduct of Tuesday night and the danger that for a time seemed to threaten the city, gathered with the purpose of raiding the store of four prisoners charged with stabbing a white men employed at the Tarry building yard. The department was congratulated by the mayor (teaching of what seems to have threatened to become a serious situation at one time). Orders were also issued by the mayor that in the event of any mob attempting at any time to attack the jail to get a prisoner that the police should shoot if necessary, and that no officer to the spared to protect any prisoner in the hands of the police on the streets. "The city of Savannah has never been disgraced by mob violence and I never shall be as long as I am mayor if the police force under my command can prevent it," said the mayor. "This has never been a lynch law town, and I do not propose that it shall be. We have here to punish offenders and adequate laws to take care of them." "I do not know who the men we were who comprised the mob of Tuesday night, but I presume that they were, in great majority, at beast, men who had been in the Savannah to realize that this is a law-abiding community and one that will not tolerate any attempts on the part of a mob to take the law into its own hands and inflict summary punishment on their own good. I wish to emphasize warn them not to repeat the offense and not to make any attempts about this line hereafter. If any attempt is made by men who do not understand the Savannah spirit to mob the jail at any time, they will not comply with their lives. Lynch law does find a healthy soil here to flourish in any one who thinks that what has been done in some places with impunity can be repeated here will find that has made a terrible mistake. A word of warning should be sufficient." CONSTABLE KILLED Tulsa, Okla. July 5—A. J. Jenkins, co stable, was shot and killed here last Saturday, following an argument with three unknown men in a grocery store in Fairview. H. C. Keys, James Keys, A. H.

GIVING THE DEVIL HIS DUE FAR BE IT from those who belong to the DuBois school of thought to detract one whit of honor, glory or credit from that philanthropic class who some few hundred years ago snatched out of darkest Africa and brought us (in chains) to brightest America. Their motive could, of course, be only the highest and most unselfish. The fact that generations paid with the sweat of their brow and with their life's blood for this boon matters little at this writing. But the question still is current and uppermost in the minds of many, "Did we not give a thousand times more than we received?" If so why do we still have supposedly intelligent men of our own blood giving utterance to such as this, credited to E. L. Blachshear, emergency agent of A. and M. College of Texas? "It was America that first gave the Negro people freedom, and here in the South, where most of them live, is the place in which they have learned the meaning of freedom and its opportunities. Here we Negroes were first introduced to the Anglo-Saxon form of civilization as based upon Christian principles of opportunity, humanity and justice among men. Here we first learned to wear clothes, to speak a great language of civilization and to know something of a Christian religion and to enjoy what white people fought for for centuries, namely, religious freedom or the right to serve God according to the dictates of conscience and moral choice. To America, then, the black people owe all that makes life worth living." To those who are even slightly familiar with history the above statements fail to ring true. They perhaps tickle the ear of the "cracker" element of the South, and the gentleman of Color who has the temerity to utter such sentiments is considered by this class "a good nigger." England freed her slaves some thirty years before America freed hers, while France goes back still farther than England in freeing those in her colonies. The Phoenicians were a black people and as far back as 532 B. C. their civilization rivaled that of the Romans. Who has not heard of the beautiful city of Carthage and read of the wonders performed by black people? Were they savages? Did the Anglo-Saxons clothe them, teach them a new method of worship, instruct them in arts, letters or the sciences? Can modern civilization duplicate many of the achievements of ancient civilization? Every schoolboy will answer "No." The gentleman from Texas informs us the South taught us the meaning of freedom and its opportunities. Strange he should keep this information to himself all these years; no one else ever suspected such a thing. And think of what an introduction we had to "the Anglo-Saxon form of civilization based upon Christian principles of opportunity, humanity and justice among men." Shades of the immortal George Washington! Isn't that spreading the masculine bovine on rather thick? Outside of an overabundance of hard work, a liberal share of cruelty and abuse, the South gave us, begrudgingly, an opportunity to serve our REAL MASTER in any way we saw fit. It must not be inferred that this section had not its good points, for it had, but they were light in the scale compared to the bad. Men of our own Race who find it necessary to constantly throw "sop" in order to keep in the good graces of a certain bigoted class have no place in the van of progress. The fight for recognition is long enough and hard enough at best, without having the thoughtless among us placing more stumbling blocks in our way. A Common Ground "SIX FIST OF EARTH makes us a dilty. The rich may seem to have a lot of necessities and pressures but to the real entailment of life, the value of all value. The rich man may throw it getting that for which all men crave, coping either, and so from a monetary standpoint. But once in a while other conditions men both of the same size, and just so previating now. The war is the man who is the most important, at least for the duration of the war if every class throw off civilian garments like, almost a family resentment. We must establish friendly relations that peep out coarseadship. This is what hapte battlefields when the cause these men are. And what is happening back home younger brothers in every station in the world. Strange indeed it will be if a new society does not emerge from this democratic spirit that is being evidenced more and more as the war goes on. Oh, the war is going on, and women will no longer be in the spotlight. The wearing of costly jewels and elaborate gowns today is entirely out of place, and the service pin on the calico dress of a mother means more to peace love people than all the costly jewels and elaborate gowns that will determine a different democracy was slowly but surely drifting into the caste system the same as some of the older countries have, and one-eighth of the population suffered much as the serts of fussion, the peasants of Italy, or the poors of Mexico. Different peoples blend into a harmonious whole, and contrableship is not hinged on one's social status, where pain and suffering is shared alike, where the price to be paid for democracy is the same to rich and poor, must we look for different people who can be worn for when a larger group of their native land they will be bigger and broader in every sense and they will judge a man not by the color of his skin but by his actual, worth to the community. And those who remained at home, because of contact if nothing more, will come to realize, as Robert Burns puts it, "A man's a mon for a that."

What is an inspiration? It is that wonderful force that quickens the pulse of activity and broadens the vision of achievement. We are today in the world of innovation, and the way we turn, inspiration, inspiration. One of the greatest events in the history of the Race took place in Wash- ington, where representatives from every walk of life, from every section of the country, Race men of unquestioned loyalty and pe- ople of unquestioned loyalty and peo- ple with high government officials on our cooperation in the victorious prosecution of the war. Now, there ought not be any more of the national population, conferring on sub- jects of national importance vitally. But that was unusual occasion. It marks an epoch in Race progress. The secretary of war, the secretary of the navy and other high government officer, said that "things were called by their proper name." The Hon. Emmett J. Scott, special assistant to the secretary of war, was the chief engineer, and nothing was left undone that should have been said. That should have been said. There was no bitterness, but there was frankness. God knows, of all times, this is OKLAHOMA Tulsa. Okla.

Bulldoozing, camouflaging, long distance theorizing, day dreams, pipe dreams, shirkling, blocking, vile names and intrigue have no place in these times of mighty deaths. In short, the world must know that we, 12,000,000 strong, are an integral part of the whole game, and in the equal and exact recognition that our positioned position merits. We are not to be sidelracked, nor our visions distorted by pigmies and knaves and fools, (which) heritage, and we ask only what we are entitled to by the records of time. It's Home to Us Now Race Unity Now and Forever There must be real, not imaginary, Race unity. Concerted action on given subjects will produce marvelous results. We do not hate white people as we are tired and slick of double-crossing, and devil-take-the-hlmingst. * Take the Chicago Tribune, for example. In seems to have a policy of offering paid protests, intelligent appeals and the hardest recent "Bad Mammy" story of the great concert at the Auditorium, their Wallace-Vallance backback show wreck, and other things the heart sick. The Chicago Tribune is a great paper with a wonderful in-depth journal. Should not stop to low-down by the McCormicks, and one of them is running for United States senator, for him. His managers citizens to vote for him. His managers citizens to stay under government regulation. He has his relatives and friends, the nerve to ask us to vote him into the United States, and usually dealt with by the Tribune? Well, we are not going to do it that way. These are vital times with us. Will you write a letter to the Chicago, the Chicago and the Chicago Tribune, Chicago, and tell them so? The White Money Suckers Then, there is another class of white parasites that gall us in our strivings for better things. These may rightly be called the "white money suckers." They are found in every large city of the country, and have a regular haven in China. They are also in a group who play for our good dollars, but run from our progress. They sometimes try to start in with discriminating against us altogether, and then they run out of business if they do not. They advance their prices 15 or 20 percent, get all the money they can from our poor, deluded people, and then a way into some neighborhood where people look at the people who made them rich. They still their "manhood and pride" and do business in the communities they work in, but they work for our people live, but they may see us for our children can, and take their children out of schools where our children go. Some teachers will not even do that. These leeches aid commercial robbers should be made to understand that their sun is stilling, and that we are not going to stall for their skin game any longer. To see some of the prices asked for games and store goods, and compare them with prices offered in other sections of the city, is enough to enrage a pet lamb, and the Defender is not going to stall for this class of commercial hoofers. Chicago is no exception to the rule, he is understand: it is true everywhere, and enough money flee out of the poor,ijing, race in this country to finance the war for a year. There must be justice. There must be unity. We must all work together and we will get somewhere. OREGON Arthur Garner, Survivor of Sinking of President Lincoln "Well, I'm happy to get home, but overranging to get back into the light," were the spirited words that Arthur Garner greeted his friends with when he arrived in the city Sunday. And these brave soldiers were dredged with mination to "seek through," for Garner was aboard the President's coin troop transport which was torpeded and sunk by U-boat 101 on May 14. After being in the water for over 18 hours he was rescued by an American destroyer. Hence he is back on a short fur- with a vivid story of German war. fried with determination to "seek through," for Garber was the President Lincoln troop transport which was torpeded and sank while 1011 on May 31. After being in the water for over 18 hours he was rescued by a lean destroyer. Hence he is back on a short fur-ough with a vivid sense of deprivation that should appeal to the romantic and chivalrous instincts of all true patrols to stamp out this horrible class of people who are tainted with the inerence. nature of the beast. Deserts Books to Enlist Garner before he entered the naval service two years ago lived with his mother, Mrs. George Garner, at 4405 North Carolina Avenue. "There is but one thing that I will fight for, and that is the principle of democracy." This idea caused him to desert his books while at Tuskegee and to go back to work afterward he asked, when the United States entered the conflict, to enter in her service. He related the following story of his adventure on the President's tour: an interview by our representative. "It was two minutes of 9 in the morning, on May 31, when we were on the tour, torpedoes fired into our bow, followed by a missile which struck us in our afterpart. These shots were fired by the German submarine J-1011 at a range of 200 yards. Torpedo Explosion Terrific "The first two torpedoes struck almost at the same time and the conclusion was so terrific as to shake the ship from stern to stern, throwing wounded crew and disabled our dynasms, making it impossible for us to send an S. O. S. call for help by this means. This handheld intelligence and presence of mind of our chief radio officer, Grayson, who connected our wireless apparatus with an unused storage battery. He sent out a message to the crew, in the meantime, the crew were lowering lifeboats filled with sick and disabled men and cast into the water for those of the crew who were thought to be able to stand the coldness. "Although we were struck without warning the discipline of the crew was excelling with the exception of one excellent onboard officer, the other Jefferson became excited and committed suicide by blowing his brains out with an automatic on the main deck. Save Sick Men First "The ship was fast settling as the order was given to abandon ship. We had just gotten away about 350 yards when our ship careened, poised high above the air for its death plunge. A dull cry entered the boilers and she was to be torn asunder. She sank in 27 minutes. The wreckage from the fittings on the main deck enabled many of the crew, who would otherwise have been left behind. The surface of the water until help could be shown. The American spirit was shown as the entire crew took to the water singing, 'All Hail, the Gang's Here.' Sick and disabled men were given life boats and lifeeboats and there was nothing left for the remainder of the crew but life belts, life rafts and a cold, cold sea. Song Awoke Spirit "After being in the water for about an hour closely scanning the horizon for helium we sighted a small black container to knock out a destroyer coming to rescue us. Spirit as the crew broke into a song, singing the 'Star-Spangled Banner'. But to our dismay the black speck proved to be a mounting two 5-inch guns on her main turret. We would be murdered in the water (by this time the Germans were in the act of loading the guns), our chaplain, on a mine we loaded raft with the gun, and we were able to what we thought was to be our final prayer to our Maker. The German commander was merely seeking for our captain, and unable to identify M. Isaacs, prisoner on board the submarine. After staying in the violin until 4:30 clock that evening, taking moving pictures and snapshots and the boat helplessly in the water, she more submerged and was seen no more. "Then came night, with its cold and serene weather, when it seemed as if the sun had rolled high, carrying us many miles from the place where we were sturdy; making it possible that we would be lost by the time help came. Just as did the sun, the light flickering, the sight of light light flickering away off in the horizon told us that a rescuing patty was near. Twenty minutes after we were picked up by an American doctor, the water about 18 hours without food or water and scantily attired."

PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES HYGIENICS AND SANITATION CONSUMPTION-FEARING CONSUMPTION A few days ago a lady complained to a awful horrish and a dread of consumption and that she had great fear of that disease; then the ease; that she wanted to be examined, but if she had a consumption of that disease, that disease, she did not want to know because of fear of the disease of the P This woman's fears were groundless. There are two ways of getting consumption—the one is being born into a tuberculous atmosphere, or being brought up in a tuberculous surroundings or in a environment in the afflicted individual is not responsible. You are not responsible for the kind of environment into which you were born, and you are not responsible for the environment in which you are reared. Here is a fact that has been scientifically proved beyond a scintillation that nearly all persons are infected infestantly in infancy and early childhood with the tubercle bacillus—but not all people contract and develop the disease durably in early childhood. We all have more likely tuberculosis germs in our system, in fact, oster, the noted physician of England, says that over 80 per cent of human beings in the world are infected with tuberculosis. Not everybody that infected come down or have the disease. What we wish to impress upon your mind is the difference between the germ and the disease. One is infected when he has the germ of the disease in his system, but where the body tissue and his or her immune resistance are able to overcome the germ, there is prevent a development of a disease or prevent him from having tuberculosis. On the other hand, if one is infected with medicines bad hygiene, or if during infancy the child is not guardian or guardian of the child does not properly house, feed, feed, and in fact, "THE NEGRO IN ART" At a recent exhibition of paintings by M. C. A. there were seven or eight paintings, each exhibited was under the auspices of the Arts and Letters Society of the C. A. of which Francis, Leroy Holmes, an amateur painter, is president. Stanislaus Suikaksi, a young sculptor of 21, who knows absolutely nothing about art, was added to deliver an address for the encouragement of Negro art. The address was all but encouraging. Mr. Suikaksi is really too set in his own ideas; therefore he appreciates only ideas, and not art. Art is a true, and simple interpretation of individual in some form, such as painting, architecture, modeling, music, etc. In painting, as in all branches of art, the artist must go about his work by some set idea in mind as to subject matter, quality, texture, feeling and a good knowledge of drawing. In painting the first essential is knowing how to group objects, texture, form, pictures, etc, so that they will most mean. By so doing you have a good arrangement of composition. We must know how to compose, even in making a little picture, so that the must be well arranged on the paper to make it pleasant and attractive to the eye. Composition is something we can learn from life, in our day life; in our homes, our clothes, beautifully arranged gowns and hats, arrangement of furniture in a home, arrangement of objects on dressers and pleasurable objects, never forget composition, as it plays a most important part in art. Think hard, be wonderful compositions in music and in life. In order to get feeling in painting it is compulsory that one should know drawing very well, as one cannot pre- One gets feeling in color by expressing one's idea in warm or cold color, or possibly by going to extremes in color, or cold color, but always keeping a harmony in color. Feeling in art also comes with values, which is keeping a moderate key, or by showing the third dimension by having three or more distinctive values: first, a light value; second, a stone, and a dark value; and deeper value is necessary to express the idea. Quality and texture are very essential in producing feeling, as they give us a sense of the stone, and a dark value, substances, such as copper, brass, silver, gold, etc. Therefore, it is plainly going to depend solely upon one's knowledge of values, colors, composition, quality and textures. Mr. Sukalakit, in his address, disregarded the important factor in any branch of art. Zindalishat, the great violinist, has the most wonderful feeling in his music, he had not studied tone, quality, rhythm, rhythm, and great difficulty in expressing himself. The artists whose works were exhibited in this recent exhibit at the Y. M. Sukalski Museum and Mr. Sukalski are very much disappointed in Mr. Sukalski and his remarks, and somewhat discouraged an audience. Letters society and his management. CHICAGO JULY 6, 1918 neglects to furnish the necessary personal hygiene for the little one—the rearing of the infected child is very likely to develop either tuberculosis of the bones, joints, intestines and, later—near heart, about age of 14. 15. In the immunocompromised. Again, children are infected by being in an atmosphere which is constantly surcharged with tuberculous germs—by close contact with a tuberculous grandparent has been the cause of infecting or giving millions of infants and young children lung consumption, and by contact with a tuberculous grandparent or just a little boy or asthma or just a deep cold or a deep cough." These grandparents are careless—they cough and spit any and all things they touch, and thus the child—if they kiss the child with droplets of tuberculous mucus on their lips. This mucus is often filled with tuberculous germs, and thus the child is sick. The grandparent. Offline the grandparent will call upon he little child to light the pipe—then there is the little one crawling around and about on the child's bed. The child sees and immediately places it in its mouth, and in this way the child becomes infected—filled with the tuberculous germs. Another very bad, and perhaps even dangerous, parent is that of chewing the baby's food, swapping apples, gum and candy, which is a very good and easy way to get some tuberculous mothers spit on the baby to nurse—such a dirty, harsh habit is fraught with much danger, and has been the cause of killing should the child be separated from its child to parents or grandparents. This we have proved beyond the slightest shadow of doubt where there are tuberculous germs in the tuberculous mother and rear it in an atmosphere free from the tuberculous germs—away from cough, spit, etc., and this child will thrive and develop a healthy boy or girl, and later on into a splendid manhood or womanhood. The other twin that was allowed to remain with its mother, although the mother was careful as well as she unintentionally had asthma, a prolonged cough, which she named "a deep cold"—but which in reality was a case of old-fashioned chronic consumption of the fibroid and had asthma, a prolonged cough, which coughing spells and hemorrhages; she was very fond of the baby girl and took almost complete charge of the child. The child developed tuberculosis, but the grandma was still living ready to kill the next child that happened to come within her care. Thus you can readily see that owing to the very little resistance and the abundance of a peculiar organ in its body—called by the physician "lymphoid tissue"—the child was a very ready victim to the disease for which it was born, and very little resisting power and the child soon succumbs to the tubercle bacillus, would limit the spread of tuberculosis, if you would not child, first get rid of the chronic cases of tuberculosis by segregation or some otherwise, and, second, carefully guard the health and lives of infants and all your little ones in early childhood.
