Relatives Bid 4,000 Draft Men Good-Bye CHICAGO HEARS FROM EIGHTH REGIMENT
EXTRA
Honor Men Off to Camp
Four thousand honor men with steady footsteps and solemn tread marching to the strains of the martial music of war bid mothers, wives, sisters and friends good-by beginning last Friday, Saturday and Sunday and entrained for Camp Grant, Rockford, Ill., where they are to prepare for the most strenuous ordeal which will take them across the seas. The occasion of their departure as those who are the long remembered by those whose privilege it was to see the boys off. Mothers and sisters stood watching the long processions with those who were filled by, believing in many instances that this light for democracy meant that the purchase price must be paid for the sacrifice by some of their loved ones.
Speakera Give Encouragement
A suitable program for the occasion of each departure had been carefully arranged and participated in by such representative citizens as Congressman Martin B. Madison, State Senator Simmons, and Oklahoma City, Okla.; Alderman Anderson and Jackson, Mrs. Booker T. Washington, Mrs. Ora Brown S. Richardson, Ms. Asa E. Carter, Carter, Mass., W. D. Cook, Dr. J. C. Anderson, Rev. McCrackin, Rev. J. F. Thomas, and Dr. A. J. Carey, chairman of local board. No honor memorial was admired by the variably named board, the established traditions of their people and to guard "Old Glory" through all of its perilous trials. One of the most important efforts forth to fight for democracy those whom you leave behind will use their best office in seeing that your relatives, wives, sons and daughters will enjoy the fruit of American democracy at home. Many of them might yell from the tremendous throng. One draftec exclaimed in loud tones: "Give us a chance over there to see you." The moment carries the conviction of the many thousands who rallied to the cause.
It was indeed an imposing process-
sion to see these thousands of men
with smiles upon their faces kissing
their loved ones good-by going forth
to the church and establishing a
lush our rights to a respectable place
in the international "Sun."

Bob Church Elected National Committeeman; Koens Defeated
Memphis, Tenn., Aug. 10—Robert R. Church and his Lincoln League, embracing the leaders in this city at the rally, held at the women, snapped the political chains of the south at the election held Thursday. Every candidate supported by the Lincoln League except one, Ed Bell, was elected.
The suit case Democrats and backsliding Republicans got cold feet, as would the women, forced to go to the ring with Church. At the last minute his managers pulled Barker down, as the Defender said would be done, leaving Mr. Church and Sam Barker for membership on the Republican state committee and primary board.

CHICAGO, AUGUST 10, 1918
A Memorable Day
170 piles had been driven and the standing record smashed. When the world's record mark was passed the crew shouted in glee, and although pretty well tired out they started in again with renewed vigor. One after another the crew jumped into the earth, and as each pile was driven to its required length the little whistle on the engine rooted a cheery blast to the tired workers. The crew started in to drive the piles at 7 o'clock and worked until noon, when a half hour was taken for lunch. Just as they reuprented to their task the crew worked in the heavy downpour. An hour later the sun came out again, and after this dark clouds appeared on the horizon and another storm broke loose. At 4:35 o'clock in the afternoon it was found that all of the piling of the ship had been driven, and as there were no other piles to be driven work was started. The crew worked in the cornmen and cheered and patted on the back. All of the members of the crew were

The next time the primary is held there will be a question to put to "Deacon" Genesee, who is what, and whom does he represent? He's got to speak up.

Arrested for Selling 'Draft Powders'; Men Lose Eyesight
Camden, N. J., Aug. 9.—What was known as the most harmful method resorted to in order to evade the draft law was uncovered here last week when secret service officers raided the home of Mrs. Elizabeth Johnson. She was arrested and charged with selling a powder to men of draft age, which when applied to the eyes caused an inflammation resulting in their rejection. Thirteen young men of draft age were found in her house undergoing treatment, and several letters were found from men in all parts of the country in information concerning the "Draft Powder" as it was commonly termed.

Somewhere in France, in Active Service, American Expeditionary Forces, July 7.—Dear Editor: You have no idea how glad it makes me feel to be given assurance that I can send in an order for Defenders with a meager possibility of receiving them. How are you and members of your staff, and your office force? Seeing line, although at the present moment I am lying prone in a trench with one hundred yards in front of the enemy. Most of our boys are well, and all join in sending a word of greeting, of our own, to the enemy. Many of us never realized just how good it was to be an American until we got "over here." more hospitable people than the French in the world. We all are trying to learn French, while all the French are picking up Americanized English. The Eighth have been a number of places where some privateations and hardships in our clashes with "the guerrillas of war," but nevertheless we still stand pre-eminent as segment of fighting men. Of course, the final sequence of our situations, there have been many changes in the personnel of each battalion of the regiment, consequently each company and squad. If it may, we will be to America will be the Eighth Illinois bringing home the "bacon." Many of the boys receive no mail, and have them cheered a bit by requesting those who may be interested in the Eighth Illinois to drop a line to any or all of the soldiers whose names I shall
If you could see some of our boys when mail is being distributed and note that longing—hoping against hope—expression on their faces when tones of sadness are heard, no letter or even a card for them. It is a heartrending skid to behold. Then, too, there are some of us who have lost father, mother, sister or brother or wife, and we are dear to them, who have departed this mundane sphere since we left America and of whom they have received no answer. A day to be exact, July 1, 1918, a young man in my company received a belated letter from New Orleans containing a bill from an undertaker for services rendered to a wife deacently. Just think of it now! No news from his wife since he left Camp Logan, March 6, 1918, and to be greeted with such a letter after the service, he will have hopeful anxiety, with no balm for the superhearth舱 the letter caused but the booche shells. "The maddening inception of itself he has no other relative and we have named in my list. Well, enough for that." "The Charcoal Division" is a myth no longer, as the enemy has already been defeated. The slon of the censor I will say there is the 368th, 370th, 371st and 372d are in close proximity to each other—in France. We has one purpose only—to get Kaise Billson's letter. The key to "equal rights for all American citizens in all the states, regardless of race, creed or color." Our mail usually reaches us from sly men, we have written (pardon me, I mean an answer to a letter written, say about, from Paris, France, May 1, 1918, to Paris, France, in Paris about July 1 to 7, 1918, provided it is answered immediately).

Following a series of fequous quarrels with her husband, Mrs. Jackson Sorrell, 5213 Dearborn street, was arrested on a Saturday morning.

The blood had dried to a crust when relatives found the body, indicating that the murder had been committed early in the morn-
Husband Makes Statement
Jack Sorrell, the husband who is now being held in jail awaiting a hearing before the coroner's jury, asserted that he was on the morning of the crime, and when he returned from work for his dinner found her lying in a pool of blood on the morning of the crime, and when the mother of the man claimed that Mr. and Mrs. Sorrell, previous to the discovery of the crime, quarrelled about some money which she had received on Tuesday her daughter took the bank book to work with her. It could not be ascertained as to whether the disagreement over money matters was over, and there were no eye-witnesses to the murderous attack committed.
DETECTIVE KYLE ARRESTS
CAMP GRANT DESERTER
Louisville, Ky., Aug. 9—Wesley E, Gentry, a registrant of Local Board No. 46, Chicago, Ill., and who claims to have been the victim of an assault, was arrested here last week by Detective Frank Kyle, Cincinnati, Ohio, charged with evading the draft. Gentry was called for service by his board and was placed in jail pending word from Chicago, which in all probability will order him committed to Camp Taylor, Ky., as a deserter from the national police department.

secretary, Mr. Pierce, who was with us at Houston, Tex., and Newport News, Va. Having arrived in France and locating the Eighth he immediately set out to catch up with us, which proved quite some job, since we have been shifted to a number of different places and have been on every front, which is some distinction in itself.
Later on I may be allowed to tell scandling about the hazards and harrow of the great conflict and of the part played by them in whom we are most interested. For the present, I can only say that Franck is beautiful country and every man in the army should have at some occupation from morn till night, except on Dianmei (Sunday), during which day every one attends at the army school, and Logisle. Switzerland is beautiful also, being a participant in this great war, I am afraid that I may disturb the security of our censor should I dissertate on the clash of the armies to say that, "Apres is guerre" meaning "After the war." I'll tell you a few things more. How interesting to describe an air battle or the clash of the armies and members of the Eighth, but just you wait until I get back. I shall send postcards to various officers on request—whenever available. Rev. Braddon is still our "grand old man" and the "premiere" (first) chapter of the armes, in our estimation. Ah! If I were to oratory, or even his descriptive chapter, then, I'd—er—have to get Kaiser Bill just the same. Cost of our officers are still jaunty and commae, as are the French and British. We have met some Italian and Russian troops, not to mention Japanese men (who are breasting this conflict also).
Only Lose One Man
Somewhere in France July 10, 1918.
Mr. John Mallee, 3281 Michigan Avenue.
I have been a Frenchman you have wondered why. I have but written sooner but to tell you the truth. I have simply been on the jump line.
I and the resilient are in the best of health; in fact, there have not been over forty men sick and but one death since we left home, even as I am writing, the big rums are going back and forth. first French then the German, but we have become so accustomed to the noise we do not pay any attention to, we sleep at night and awaken us in the morning, and during the day the machine guns chime in the chorus.
This is a great country. I have seen the herds of goats, cows, and the chickens in the yards, have esten theusage from the rafters and the house, we sleep at night and white wines, to say nothing of the champagne, which you can purchase for $1.40 per bottle; and take it from the French how now. Everywhere, we when we leave every one is sorry to see us go. The French soldiers and people are simply crazy over this realization, and you will find a lunch of French and our men all together, men and women.
Today I was the guest of a French regiment present at the presentation of medals for bravery given to a famous French regiment in a very historic spot. How's that for class? It is said before a beautiful country. It is sad to see such fine towns simply ruined by shell fire.
In some towns not even the walls

In the two speeches he made here in support of the Lincoln League ticket, Roscoe Conkling Simmons floor and down the forks for the on and on through Dixie, told the white people sitting around him that the race meant to have a hand in the game, and that he would not be to attain. Then he went on to stir them with a plea and prepare them with feathers. The Lincoln League took one man, Condon for assessor, from the opposition. He was the only man on that team. The League took up the cause of Joe Williams, neither ticket. He was elected. The Race had three candidates for magistrate, Brooks and Wilson.

Austin, Texas, Aug. 9.—An alleged well-planned, unscrupulous campaign now being waged among members of the military, the government, and southern cities by white men who are seeking to rid them of their Liberty Bonds and War Savings Stamps by unscrupulous schemes, according to reports made by the state, who are exerting every possible effort to end the evil practice. It is stated that, smooth-talking with the state, they have country visiting farmers and laborers who purchased Liberty Bonds and War Savings Stamps and are carrying them to a large stock of cheap watchmen in the state, reported that many thousands of dollars in the hands of the more ignorant ones into the pockets of these swindlers. In many instances cheap sewing materials and war savings implements have been traded for Liberty Bonds, and said that the government is investigating the conduct of these men.

The city has openedly discriminated against the Race all during the year, and several insulting signs have appeared warning the public of the race on the grounds. Yet we flock there in droves every year. The local newspapers are bitterly against the use of this park. COL. ROSCOE SIMMONS IN

SATURDAY, AUGUST 10, 1818
New York, Aug. 9.—The number of Colored women proportioned to the whites is unduly large. Provision was made by the Church Mission of Help, an Episcopal organization (white), for the maintenance of school facilities for the market town on Feb. 2. Before this, little preventive, protective and reformative work was done by the Jewish en. The Jewish, Protestant and Catholic people take faithful care of the fallen women. Mrs. Holmes has visually recognized the active civile girls and women, among them the House of Mercy, the Bedford Reformator, House and the Crendenn House. The wood House the attendant claims that the Race girls possess an unwholesome attraction to the white girl and that they remain apart. Few of the institutions wish to accept our women detention home for them, where constructive work can be done, or the percentage will increase.

BAD FOR HARLEMITE
New York, N. Y., Aug. 8. - The new subway Manhattan Aug. 1, works bad for Harlemite, particularly those coming to Harlem from Brooklyn: An investigation by a Defender reported revealed Brooklyn is to cross the bridge to Park Row, walk over to Park Place and Broadway, where an express train west from New York avenue may be bound. Brooklyn trains went up Lenox avenue, where as under the new system, an Brooklyn trains go up Lexington Central station connecting the East Side subway with the West Side, was ordered temporarily discontinued by the city, to its dangerous samming. A survey through the new tubes, showed old men and boys, old women and girls, and others of that type, being used in the running of the new system. Here and there, in an isolated place, the face of a Race woman could be seen. By the general unknowlk looks they could be immediately stamped as some of the I. R. T's forster porter woman. Strange Race people, while the other work is given to any one whose skin is fair.

DISCHARGES WHITE BOX
New York, N. Y., April 9, 2014
D. Webster Collins, a medical student, was sitting in the subway, on his way down town, when he was rudely jarred and remarked, "I'm going to count them and if you are not up out of that seat by then, I'm going to throw you out." He even ride with my kind, much less, sile white people stand." The white fellow then counted three and struck the face, bringing the blood. The man ordered his arrest, and the case came up before Magistrate Simpson, in his questioning of the defendant. Counted the fact that the soldier had lately come to New York from Mississippi to magistrate Simpson, so it is alleged, casually remarked that as the Race boy did not appear to be hurt very much, he would magistrate is a recent appointee of Hylaan; and it was before him that Patrolman Rhodes was recently brought to the court. It is said that at that time, Magistrate Simpson was strongly inclined to convict Rhodes of disorderly conduct, notwithstanding clear case of discrimination, a violation of the rights law of the state of New York.

DROPPING MORE WHITE WOMEN
Brooklyn, N. T. Aug. 9-The dismantling of the public attitude toward the employment of women on the cars. John P. Coulhill (white), president of the Brooklyn Central Labor Union, says added efforts will be made to hire the company's entire working forces.
Thus the agitation waged by white organizations against the employment of white women as conductors on the care is beginning to show results. The court's strict Attorney Lewis concerning the morals of these women so stirred the various white women's clubs in Brooklyn that they immediately began an effort to oal least force the B. R. T. to stop employing more girls in this capacity.
Women Porters More Numerous Tham Ever
Admittedly there are among the Race many who will do anything once, if not always. Therefore, with no Race organization or church willing to take an active part in the work, women have gradually accepted the degrading work until today, unlike their white sisters, there are more women in the bridge and Race Brooklyn Rapid Transit than ever before. And, unfortunately, the evil is women in the bridge and Race women porters are also there on the lines of the I. R. T. This is an indictment against the many Race institutions, etc., and shows the extent of their real unselfishness to the Race.

SOUTHERN TACTICS IN MASSENA
New York, N. Y., Aug. 5. - There has been a lot of happenings in Massena N. Y. that might well have came from the lawless state. Georgia, or some other southwestern state. Mr. and Mrs. James W. Holmes, at present confined, illegally, so the story does seem, in a penitentiary at Canton.
Arosted in Early Morning
Aluminum Company Bringing in Many
In Massena is located a large man-
ufacturing concern, the Aluminum Com-
pany. He brought in a large number
bringing in Race men at the rate of
200 per week; and it is thought that
the men are being brought in at a
labor and transportation

Benjamin. Chase, a brother of the
Negro-hating judge, who after send-
ing to the people and people affidavit to
san, has given notwithstanding the fact that he has been paid his fee.
Facts of Case Sent to the Governor
The facts in the case were, sent to
Governor Whitman by Holmes, and the
governor begged Whitman to go
beyond that he has done nothing
with the case. Another case was cited
of a white man arrested for intoxication
and sent to the Chase told that if he would testify
that he got liquor in Holmes place
he would release him on a small fine.
The white man refused to accept these
conditions and was given a fine of $10.00; but the
sentence of 20 days in the jail, but the
dealing out justice would be censored,
released this prisoner the same day,
upon is paying the fine of $10.00. The
white man was sent to Holmes immediately
and told a old man that he had
occurred between him and Judge
Chase. On the face this seems to be
a fragrant case of mistaken judicial
wrongdoing of a worthy of a close investigation by
Governor Whitman, with the idea of
the expulsion from the 'bench of this
state,' and that he really entertains these thoroughly
American ideas.
Activities of Y. M. G. A.
Brooklyn, N. Y., Aug. 9—In connection with the swimming in the building the first station of the U. S. Vol. Life Saving Corps has been established as a leauntent in charge.

Baseball League the team of the Carlton avenue branch now stands at home on Saturday, Aug. 3. Bedford branch on Saturday, Aug. 3. Carlton's place in the league becomes more Army, fixed and the boys look forward to storing a $150 trophy away in the baseball season. The employment department of the branch, under the direction of A. L. Comther, had in July the biggest team of business of the fact that July is usually the dullest month of the year. The greatest difficulty at present is in, securing men Among the recreational features of the new building, bowling proved to be the most popular so far, and it is anticipated that next winter the three alleys will be the main demand. The branch will enter the Y. M. C. A. Bowling League next fall.

KNOCK
And You Knock Alone.
"Bought and Paid For" opened here for the week on Monday to a fine attendance, as usual, and proved
to be right up to
the high standard
all work done by the
Lafayette
Players. It is a
play with a tremendous punch,
presented with
remarkable effect.
The story tells of
a poor telephone

Teny Langston
that the man's mind can bring her she tastes the dregs of unhappiness, and she hushes the husband has finished one of his big dreams and he heaped words of abuse upon her, she leaves him. She does this, much to his surprise, as he had grown to believe that he could have made the girl contented, despite his worship of the "gold calf". She shows that she would rather, after all, be a shop girl than a bird in a gilded cage and an absorbing play that grips you to the point of owls from start to finish, there is comedy enough to keep all smiling, with the exception of a few of the extremely funny drama shows, a comedy drama which surely justifies the wonderful record it made in its two years' run in New York and its fifteen months' stay at one of the big theaters in the loop in our own dew Chicago.
The Grand
A musical farce is on here, the Billy King Company presenting "Prof. Beaul" an odd but interesting and laugh-producing scene in one laid in and around a summer hut. The prelator has a daughter in an eastern college, and, unknown to her, he has framed up a marriage with a gink that will be a big part of other girl to play a tough character in order to break off the engagement, without her dad's knowledge. During the summer Billy King as Prof. Beaul, a phony book agent, plays his board around the hotel. The fun starts with this decision, and from then on until the happy finish there is "Songs offered during the show are: Sunrise, Opening choir; You Keep Sending Em Over." Billy King: "Katy" James Thomas: "How Can Any Little Girl be a Singer?" Sanders and the grand finale. "Every Peaches in Dixie." Other acts, on the
bill are Ellis & Elsworth, hand balances; Sloan & Moore in a song and talk not, and George Mack, a good singing, talking and dansing single.
The Monogram
Dan Michael's and his "New York Follies" are here for the second week and still making good. This company is near being here, legitimate one as anyewhere, but the one it is is clean and up to the minute. One of the peculiarities of the show last week was the fact that there wasn't a "Blues" number used, which is a step away from the usual. Dan was a class of howl that needed to be "jarred" it is the type of blues that have a suggestive taint in word or rendition, and the sooner they are put in the scrap heap along with a lot of other blues, the more "nightmares" nightmares, the better. Dan has made a step forward along that line and deserves to be commended. The offering this week is entirely different from the others, the furtures have been added. It is a show well worth seeing, and will last to the final curtain on Sunday night.
CHARLEY JOHNSON
Famous International Performer Completes Second Record Breaking
Announcement
Charley Johnson, with his Johnson & Dean Review, has completed his second trip to the coast and return, the act having proved to be one of the most successful of his. The Review has made a remarkable record for the year, having closed a twenty weeks' engagement in which it was an added attraction with the Nora Bayes Review, which played a central role in the early last fall. Immediately, in October, to be exact, Charley and his company started over the Pantages time, the tour ending late in February; he was immediately rebooked over the next few weeks. Harris circuit, on both being accorded the headline honors on all bills. The
Charley Johnson of Johnson-Dean Revue
Review is conceded to be the best singing and dancing act in the world, jazz and pop being the watchword crowded into the eighteen minutes to make it a real "wonder show." Cakewalking by the star and an efficient drummer has crowded this line the famous performer and always has been without a peer. Whole abroad some years ago Charley had a concert with the steward Richard-Richard in his latter line and strutted his stuff before all the crowned heads of Europe. One of the finest honors paid Johnson & Peast, Hungary, where they were met at the station by the Royal Hungarian band, and in the parade which followed. The great act were rendered, including the old time favorites, "Bamboo Tree" and "Bill Bailey, Won't You Please Come Home." The act will rest in Chicago and show the band in an eastern tour which is being arranged by the booking agents.
Ben Byron III
As we go to press word was received that Ben Byron of the famous Musical Byrons, is lying at the point of death in the hospital. He is for some months and little hopes are entertained for his recovery. Joe Sheftell and his Eight Black Dots are splitting the week between the Proctor theater, Troy and Albany, N.Y.
First United States Official War Film
"Pershing's Crusaders" Will Take You With the Great General, Step by Step, From Home to the Front Lines in France
The world conflict takes upon the nature of a crusade. The Crusaders were the efforts of a new world strivener, a new warrior, a new piracy and a fraternal bloodshed. This idea is shown to perfection in the great picture, "Pershing's Crusaders," which is shown at the Theater on Saturday and Sunday. We go forth in the same spirit in which the knights of old went forth to the battlefield, withstanding the sacrifice, we shall gain from it a noble manhood and a deeper sense of America's mission in the world, of parents and asking, "Why do we bring up our boys?" It is most essential that they see and know the young men of America, who are going to fight for one definite thing, to save democracy from death. This mighty exodus of American manhood to the plains of Europe may well
When America entered the war, the government became the largest business corporation in the war. J, with its dusty armies and dusty dusty Ten million questionnaires were sent out by the provost marshal general by which ten million Samhies are made ready to pour out their life and their wealth. Yesterday the open country dotted with peaceful houses, today huge cantonments to house our national army. Of these latter there are 38 built to house the army. Today we are using $1,000,000,000 feet of lumber.
The government had to arrange for the clothing of 2,000,000 men. Sixty thousand dresses both wool and cotton there, six hundred and eighty coats in one length of the material, and every woman working in Uncle Sam's service. Shoes for the soldiers is another interesting feature as shown in this great story of facts, as is the preamble to the service. The 6,000,000 meals each day. Every detail for the successful carrying out of our part in the war is shown in this film, from the building of the huge guns and the transfer of the transferring of the them at the front: all the drilling in the smaller arms, as well as the trip across on the transports there are military scenes and action which will make you want to get up out of your chairs and shout with them. You do not doubt be the last chance to see this wonderful feature on the South Side.

CHICAGO DEFENDER
Billy King & Co. have a great novelty offering the last half of the week. The little given to the piece is "The force comedy of the screaming type. There are song and dance numbers galore, and there isn't a quiet minute in the entire hour which it takes the force comedy to work. The efforts of the owner of a struggling paper to get a sale. He finally lands a fellow with a bank roll in the person of Billy King, the great comedian. Bill King, the owner, chances until he gets a flash of a swell looking girl reporter. He makes it to the office, and while looking the plant over—which consists of a couple of tables and an office, and as his company pay in a lot of money for advertising etc. that settles it right there. The transaction is made, and Bill comes into possession of the paper. He carts it out to write, and as his company isn't long before he finds that he is up against it. His efforts to keep the others from giving him the double cross are so funny that you will double up and fresh one of Bills. It sure is a knock-out.

"Tarzan of the Apes"
---
Great Jungle Drama with Robinson
Cruseos setting, coming to
the book setting
"Tarzan of the Apes," in motion picture form, will be seen at the Pickford theater on Saturday and Sunday of this week, which will be its presentation outside the big theaters of the loop.
The story takes the form of a jungle melodrama, in which every possible variety of thrill is crowded into a Robbins' setting. It follows the advenience of a baby, who is stolen from his mother by a huge ape and brought up in the latrine of the little witty baby, really the son of a nobleman in England, a faithful servant, who has escaped from a band of Arab slavers, returns home and is restored to him to his rightful position as a wealthy estate. He is folled at every turn by the son of a barmal, the slave who has reduced to defeat. Meanwhile, the heir is still in the jungle, where he spends his time getting the rescuing parties, for his benefit, out of their difficulties.
In one of these fights with the entire jungle he save a beautiful malden from a ferocious lion, and a charming jungle cat, and last reel closes with a soutimental fadeaway in which the unwitting hind fuis that ignorance is bliss and that there are many other compensations for a tame cat, all the beasts of the jungle ramp over the screen in the rendition of this feature. The cast includes Eimo Lincoln and Enid Markey, but there are numerous other men there among the greatest acrobats and gymnasts in the world. While the basic idea of the plot may not have been sponsored, Darwin, it is none the less absorbing, and the ground for one of the most interesting and spectacular films ever screened. Don't miss it.
The Gainss and the Wells have joined and have the greatest novel in vaudeville. The act is known as "The Cuban Athletes" and will be seen in the Monogram theater next week. They will be in the doublette theater, Detroit, Mich., this week.
Alphonse Daudet's great French play, "Sapho," will be the offering of the Lafayette Players at the Avenue theater next week. The story of the play must be well known to most of my readers, but for the benefit of those who are not familiar, we give a short summary:
Fanny LeGrande is a Parisian courtesan who has been the playwriting most of the artists and poets of France. At the opening of the play "Deechelette," a young civil engineer, is giving a masquerade dress to her. Here she sees for the first time Joan, a young student, and falls desperately in love with him. The passion in this play is the same as in the movies, and its previews prove. Flamont, the man who is enamored, has committed forgery to keep her in the manner she has been in her life. At its height the officers appear and place him under arrest. The party breaks up. Joan and Fanny are left with a "good night," she complains of weariness and he seizes her in his strong arms and carries her upstairs to her room. The night on the floor is talking of Sapho's new form in love.

President Wilson Pleased With Editors' Conference
President Wilson Pleased With Editors' Conference
Warmly Commends "Fine Philosophy of Democracy" Exhibited in Frank and Calm Consideration of War Issues
Washington, Aug. 9.—President Wilson is greatly pleased with the conference of editors and other leaders of thought and opinion among the Colored citizens of the country, held a short time ago in this city. The report of the conference has been published far and wide and the proceedings have attracted a larger measure of attention than the report of any similar gathering of men since emancipation.
In a recent letter the chief executive of the nation plainly indicates his deep interest and genuine satisfaction with the meeting and its successful outcome, as well as with the practical results that have accrued from the frank and unharmed interchange of views as to how the 12,000,000 Negroes of the country might most effectively aid America to win this righteous war for freedom, and to win the war with the President feels that the problems considered by the conference were "grave and weighty," and he is cheered by the thought that the whole state of feeling throughout the country will be helped by the broad spirit of patriotism, and by the conferences in their calm, dignified and high-purposed deliberations.
.
In no uncertain terms the President warmly commends the Colored representatives of the press for their timely empathies of national unity on the vital issues involved in the war and applauds the inspiring example set by them for all Americans who have at the moment of the nation in its present crisis. The final text of the President's letter to the chairman of the conference follows:
"The White House, Washington, July 31, 1915—Dear Mr. Scott." Your letter of June 28th has been called to my attention, and I am both interested and pleased. I have given of the message held in Washington a kind of thought and opinion among the Negro citizens of the country.
"The problems considered by the conference of special importance to the people whom they represent are grave and wealthy, and the whole state of affairs is in need of help helped by the frank and calm consideration given to these matters.
"In the meantime, it is cheering to see that the fine philosophy of democracy, which is at this time the inspiration of the great effort of our country, was felt and expressed by these concessions, and ought to control all Americans in the present crisis. Cordially yours."
"The War Department."
This unrigging endorsement of the Editors' Conference and sincere tribute to the loyalty of the Colored citizens to the cause held dearest to all America will bear witness to the strength over the land. The President's ringing utterance in denunciation of mob violence, the acceptance of Colored nurses for war service, and a score of advantageous plans for the induction of our African-American soldiers in camps for officers, followed closely by this exceedingly cordial letter of the President, give ground for belief that the Negro-American is, during these days of national emergency and need, by the general government as a factor of importance in the winning of the war.
Strangles Woman to Death
With Aid of Red Clothin
Elgin, Ill., Aug. 9—Mrs. Hattle Bramlette of Chicago, an inmate of the Boy Scout organization located near Mrs. Ruby Sifty (male) of Zion City, Ill., also an inmate, and strangled her to death with a bed sheet. Although there were four attendants in the ward when the crime was committed, none heard the scuffle that preceded the tragedy. Mrs. Bramlette watched for a chance to seize Mrs. Sifty and when she did, she escaped. Mary Mrs. Bramlette dragged her into a room and tied a bed sheet around her neck, tightening it until death came by strangulation.
Mrs. Sifty was 27 years of age and the wife of a traveling salesman, Mrs. Bramlette is 14. Both were consid- ered murderers, and the crime were closely guarded. This is the first case of its kind to arise in the history of the institution, which was founded in 1870.
Mrs. A. W. Wooden. 3827 Elmwood avenue, was the hostess at a dinner party Thursday night to a group of friends in honor of her son, Frank Henry Wooden, who left Saturday morning for Camp Grant. There was glabrate spread and all of the guests had a very enjoyable time.—Adv.

BLOOD POISON, FESTERING SORES
Risings, Bumps, Swollen Glands, Pimples, Healed and Cured by Prescription C-2223.
Stop Paying Out a Lot of Money for Baths and Expensive Trips.
Prescription C-2223 is a liquid medicine which purifies and strengthens your blood—sending a flood of pure, rich blood to the skin surface—healing it from the skin poison, wounds, glands, rashes, bumps, simplex, itching eczema, bone paints, rheumatic joints, mucous patches or sores in mouth. Prescription C-2228 has produced some remarkable cures of blood poison, even where all other medical treatments have failed, and caused by most of our prescription drugstores. The dose and directions are pasted on the bottle, as per the original prescription, given by a famous specialist. C-2223 not only purifies the blood, but also cleans it of all poison, humors and uric acids that cause the awful paints and sores, also stops that, burning itching of the skin, giving anyone a smooth healthy skin as well as pure, rich blood.

Commander of Student
Training Camp
Washington, D.C.
Russell Smith has been detailed as commanding officer of the Washington student army training camp just opened on the Howard University grounds. Dr. Smith, who is the VP, Va., where he was reared and received a rudimentary education in the public school's. He enlisted in the Army with Troop B of that organization thirteen years. He saw foreign service with the gallant Tenth cavalry in the Philippines and in Mexico. He attended the Army Training Center at Fort Des Moines last year and was graduated, receiving a commission as first lieutenant. His most recent military assignment was to serve on a detail with the 152d depot brigade and with a field artillery regiment at that station. His commission and assignments have been by diligent and meritorious service.
The student army training camp at Howard is for the instructinl of representatives of colored colleges through which hands are handed to the numbers 200, who will give them training in military science and tactics for a period of forty-seven days, after which they will return to their respective institutions to train others in the work of the army. This has been made for the formation of a student army corps, which will be advantageous to the national army when the young men are eventually called the colors. Many schools are taking advantage of this training offered at Howard University.

Letters to Mr. Swearney
Trenton, N. J., July 29, 1918. - Mr. W. Allison Sweeney. - Dear Sir: Your messages delivered to the people through the Defender are surely taking root in your life throughout the country. I sincerely congratulate you for your frankness and unflinching manner of expression, and our gifted faculty and our 12,000 Race men and women en brace you on all sides, and with your force and strength, we will reach the goal. Yours very truly. N. L. GOODWIN. 61 Bellevue St. Corsicana, Tox. Aug. 2, 1918. - Mr. W. Allison Sweeney. Chicago. - Deer Shr: You have given me the good work fender when you come across with the stuff you gave Jackson in its issue of July 20. Come on, Mr. W. Allison Sweeney. This is the good work about this "what folksink" and all others like him. Yours truly.
Dear and Honored Sir: Thanks a thousand times for the fire and fearlessness of your mighty pen. The Racca brothers are in debt to you. The recent lustbasting you gave our "white folks niggers"—it seems that most communities have been left behind, but he will never recover from, should the good Lord let him live a thousand years. The white man who made the address admits he done wrong, but he will never be heard to hear it. He was willing to go before our people and acknowledge it.
- Again, thanks, and God bless you,
Mr. Sweeney.

A NEW STATE CONSTITUTION |
JHERE MAY BE such a thing as the advocates of a new state
constiution claim, as outgrowing certain laws that were enacted when the
population was very small and the requirements accordingly not very: much,
hut we Mave suffered little on that score up to the present tine and un
donbtedly will continue to get along under the present Laws it it requires a
nwo-thirds vote of the people of the state to change theny, The downstate
tolks look upon the movement as one designed in the main’ to favor Chicago,
and they are not far wrong. Chicago has outgrown village laws and wants
more power invested in the city and county and less in the state. Many
cuterprises aro nipped in the bud because they cannot be worked out under
the present laws and because it is almost an impossibility: to secure, through
the state legislature favorable laws.
Many of the representatives in Spriggficld hail irom sections sparsely
populated; they know little or nothing ot the needs of a big city like Chi-
cago. and argue what is good enough for them is good enough for the rest
of the state.” Then, too, there is the element of gratt that is ever looked
upon ay being present when Chicago asks for special legislation, so to keep
com the safe side they take no chances. If we were looking at the matter
{front the other fellow's point of view we would be heartily in favor of giving
Ulinois a new constitution, or at least substituting new laws for the an.
tiquated ones, for progres hinges on keeping abreast of the times. But,
contrary to our policy of hewing to the line and letting the chips fali where
thev may, in this instance we reserve the right to take a narrow, selfish view.
Every man, woman and child on this earth, whether they admit it or
mot, has a certain fear ot death. ‘They kndw what life is, but what the
great beyond holds no one knows. So with the present constitution of Illi-
nois, We know there are laws that distinctly specify there shall be no
abridgment of our rights: that every citizen, of whatever religion, creed oF
color, has the same standing in our courts of law. Undoubtedly there is
not the sume feeling in the breasts of the people of the state that was there
some fifty years apo. “The East St, Louis riots, the inclination not only to
discriminate in the southern portion, but to lynch, amply justifies this feeling,
What man ot dark skin would be willing to again place his citizenship
in the hands of the mixed element that gors to niake up the population of
this state? Have they not even here in Chicago attempted to restrict resi-
dential neighborhoods. to separate the schools and “Jim Crow’ us generally?
What stopped them if not the laws on our statute books? Knowing these
things first hand, the inclination is to play safety first and Jet well enough
alone. ° “The assurance trom our friends who favor the change that our in-
terests will be safeguarded is consoling, but are our friends in the majority,
and if they are not, where will we stand? Seli-protection is the first law
of nature, and if some means for protecting even that which we now have!
is devised. our vote and our support can be counted on for the new cor
stitution; until then we will fight under the old banner.
