"NOT FOR US" SAID VOTERS TO BLEASE
Columbia, S. C. Aug. 20.—Through the efforts of President Wilson to lease the senate of those who fostered the culture of the civil kultur, ex-Gov. Cole Blease was defeated for senatorial nomination.

A Nightmare of Ruins
"Not long afterward we were on our way to the front, and as we moved up the hillsess scenes of devastation.

Hell. More than that, this hideous nightmare, a one that served to fire our enemies it through. And we were determined.
"I imagine a thousand explosions at once, a million noises in one grand chorus, and this is the calm serenity of our rockets and signals of a thousand fireworks. My life in the trenches was exceedingly exciting. One incident I will relate. My comrades and I had arrived at our dugout and had thrown back a few of us, a bit of sleep, when we heard a German 'Kat' strike.

It was glorious; as we attacked them across dissolate fields, honeycombed by shell fire, through the grass, through the steel, and those Boches shuddered. Many of our prisoners were glad to be alive. Among them we found boys around us, 16, angry gaunt and wild-eyed creatures.
"It was on the morning of March — a dense barrage preceding us, as we watched word to word go over. It was came for me, for out of that cloud of fearfulness came gas. In the midst of this and bursting shells we were, and that all I was all about was the dim outline of moving figures. I struggled to go on, but something uncanny restrained me. I was wounded."

With an American Contingent on the French Front, Aug. 30.—"Look out, the French!" Sergt. William Butler of New York has leaped from a shallow pit in advance of the firing trenches and trained his automatic rifle on the enemy. Sergt. William Butler of New York feared "once upon a time," "game" with such good effect that he liberated his white lieutenant and four American troops from the foe churches and killed the enemy, wounded a Prussian officer, who later died, and put a score of hobes to nominous flight.
Sergt. William Butler's "private war" by pursuing the Germans right up to their own line and nonchallantly tossing hand grenades into their dugouts, though at the time their barrage was biting the earth all around him.
Butler's exploit, for which he received the croix de guerre, rivals the performance of Henry Johnson and Needham Roberts, privates in the same engagement in which Butler played so splendid a role took place in the early morning of Aug. 18 in the regimental sector near Malsons de Champagne, northeast of Stemenhould, where the enemy had launched a strong raiding party which, cutting in from two sides, managed, with the aid of a cage barrage, to isolate four of our men from the enemy.

RACE MEN HAVE CONTROL
OF BIO DISCURBLE
OF BIG MISSOURI PLANT
St. Louis. St. Louis who did not run away from East St. Louis a year ago now see where they were wise. The war has given them an opportunity to show the country the worth of the black man in war work. Our men believe it is just as essential for them to be brave and brave boys "over there" can be backed up, as it for thousands of them to fight.
One of the examples of their worth is to be found at the Golden Grain Bowl, where the race has all the great positions and the company would be in. sore straits for workers were it not for the loyalty of the Negro. The men and women of the white fellows who are there work along with them in perfect harmony.

To those whose investments in the past have not netted returns expected, or feel that money invested in various assets is your chance to come into your own again: repeat: "This is not a prospect, but a sure thing"—a developed mine, with more than $3,000,000 worth of gold or silver, and a rare opportunity—and a rare opportunity—because the opportunity of getting into a real gold mine, except at sky-high prices, is unusual. You are lucky to have an unusual opportunity presented to you.
Normal Comparison
The Homestake Company will have paid a total in dividends, at the end of June, to $40,048,788. Its present capitalization is $15,16,000. The stock seldom grows, the largest and Higgins families are its largest owners. The latest quotation being $55 on Nov. 5, 1912, with the high of the year being $65. The dividends rate being Jan. 20. Dividends have been paid monthly almost continuously for $38 and rate being 65 cents a share monthly.
The Overlook would soon be in a position to pay the same dividends that the Homestake is now paying—the most from 600 tons (this will be the unit) to 1,800 tons daily. This latter tonnage will be installed by separate units at the earliest date possible. The Overlook should have the same market value as the Homestake. We base these figures on the Overlook ore to average only per ton. If our ore only averaged $10 per ton, we would have a gold-mine. In all our mill tests and assays Overlook ore has averaged better than $20 per ton.

Riot at Beren Church Outing
Rockaway Beach, L. I., Aug. 30. The slight-seeing cars filled with soldier's equipment were supposedly out for a day's outing at Rockaway Beach on Thursday, Aug. 22, attempted to interfere and arrest a man who was supposedly excursion of the Beren Baptist church, whose outing was held on the same day at the beach. Most every person in the church know this outing is held once each year and is patronized by peaceful and law-abiding Americans. After the outing, the crowd, estimated at 1,500, scathed around the beach enjoying the amusements. So large and scattered was the crowd, people did not know of the attempt, whom it is said were typical southernists, to interfere with and bump into the crowd. The crowd was peacefully promenading along the walks, attending to their own business. One lady with a little child, whose name could not be ascertained, was tested to a soldier for bumping into her. This aroused the irs of a young man named Thomas Love, well known as a beat he could, but was outnumbered and naturally received the worst of fights. The excitement grew so greatly that the soldiers got cold feet and relied upon the assistance of the local Johnson or Needham Roberts in the bunch. They even protected themselves to the extent of arming with a rifle, by, carried the same peaceful crowd, and the rest of the day, was spent in pleasure.

FOR HAIR THAT WILL STAY STRAIGHT USE PALM CREAM AND PALM OIL
The only safe and guaranteed straightener on the market. Slay, Clarra. Mr. W. would be a very handsome young man if it wasn't for his awfully bad hair, wouldn't he? Oh, he's all right now; he had his barber treat his hair with Palm Cream, and now he is simply a dream. Our Palm Cream will not only straighten hair, but will keep it straight. Water or change of climate will not affect it. We have thousands and thousands of men today—men in all walks of life throughout this country, South America, the West Indies and various parts of Africa—using our goods. It is not always that a manufacturer can succeed with his goods in his own home town. He often has to seek fields far away. But not so with us. We have succeeded in our home. If you know a barber in New York, write and ask him what he thinks of Palm Cream. Palm Oil is an accessory to Palm Cream, as it grows the hair and keeps it beautiful. If your hair is harhe and dry or brittle it needs Palm Oil. If it is sick, stubborn and will not grow it needs Palm Oil. Palm Oil is not that soft, greasy mess used by so many people for the hair. It is dry and neat; it will not grease your hat, but will give your hair that beautiful, silky, glossy effect so much desired by everyone. Big inducements offered to agents. Special rates to barbers.

DISGRACEFUL ACTIONS AT MT. CALVARY
New York, N. E., Aug. 30.—A disgraced scene occurred at the Mt. Calvary Commandery, No. I, K. T., day and night plenic held at Manhattan Casino on Thursday, Aug. 22, when a man refused to pay for a drink of soda, for which he was charged 10 cents and for which he refused to pay on the ground that it was an overcharge. After being told that he would have to pay the charge the man refused, that brought to a climax the trouble which had been brewing all day. It seems that a number of youngsters from 89th street had come to the affair with the express purpose of reaking the man off. During the day several fights took place in the hall and park and were quelled by the Mt. Calvary officials and the management of the Manhattan Casino. Some well-informed youngsters that a number of youngsters from 89th street came to the affair to pick a fight with the youngsters of Harlem. Six detectives arrived just as the fight was going on, which lasted one hour, during which the efforts and attempts of the detectives of the Casino were worthless and resulted in the management having to put out the lights at 11:30 p. m. In the streets another fight started in which bricks and stones were thrown, and the officer of the casino was to be broken. Many of the people who were present and who have attended several affairs at the Casino and other halls, say that they never have experienced such actions and behavior before on the floor by the police. Mr. Waldron, manager of the Casino, protected many mothers with children by keeping them indoors until 12:30 p. m. and allowing them to leave by way of the police. Another young soldier who started the trouble was arrested, because Mr. Waldron would not press any charge.
Activities of the J. B. Taylor Tennis Club
CHICAGO DEFENDER NEWS SERVICE
Brooklyn, N. Y., Aug. 30.—This week the Colonial Tennis club of New York has opened a local tournament, where, among other of those players, who, because of the lack of the fine points of the game, succumbed to their adversaries, will have an opportunity to begin right away to strengthen up and prepare for the national tournament, which the American Tennis Association decided would be played again in New York in 1819.
Over in Brooklyn the John B. Tayler Tennis club is holding its annual members' tournament, at which keen competition is taking place among its environs. The event is donated by J. Hoffman Woods, president. The events are men's singles, men's doubles and mixed doubles. The anticipation is that F. J. Accoose will take the main trophy, as he did last year, and will most likely horses" in the club who will attend the bucket. Both Loring and Accoose feel the benefits of their defeat in the singles and doubles during the recent national tournament, and, although they have to reach the semi-finals, as they had in the previous round, take off the rough edges during the next 355 days and be prepared to enter the nationals at third time next year. The finals of the Brooklyn club will be played on Labor day, when it is noted that a most sensational game will be the conclusion of the week's events. Labor Day night, beginning at 3 o'clock, the club will hold its open air dance and Japanese festival on its large and spacious grounds, 44 Schenectady University campus. A guest occasion is anticipated. Look for advertisement.

"No, I am not a steal

ers as well as with the aid of her fellow grafters, invigile a young man into their nets with the purpose of estranging him from his dance as well as to separate him from his money. During the process a latent spark of decency which still smolders in the heart of the adventurous leads her to renounce her desire to renge on the purpose of their plot to the extent of giving the young man in question up entirely. Circumstances this line, though, and she again decides to go through, to the startling fact comes to the surface that she was at one time the mistress of the line, though, and she again decides on the scene of the pater himself, who minces no words in his denouncement of the designing woman, bringing about the union with the girl of his own set and the alliance matrimonial of the leader of the gamblers ad the vampire herself, there a fine connection with the girl of inning action, and it is remarkably handled by the Lafayette Players. The settings are right up to the minute, the costuming is great, and the costumes in is four acts, goes through fast.
As Jeanne LaFarge, the vampire, Cleo Desmond has a part which is much difficult to explain, but difficult situations to go through, the clever actress takes them advantageously. Andrew Bishop, as John Cleinning, gambler, is right up to the challenge, and the characterizations played by him, and the same is true of Clarence Muse as Louis Hawk, professional blackmiller, whose efforts as an accomplice are disgraceful, and the would-be gambler, is clever both in that part and as the lover of Daisy McGurk, the maid, played with the wife of Richard Sterling, the scion of a wealthy family, is well done by H. L. Pryor, and his faithful dance brings a fine performance, who makes a very dashing appearance Charles Moore, as the detective, does splendidly, and James Stitt, in the part of the father of the prospective victim of the crime, is by all means appearance, Charles Lucas, as the clergyman, is good, and completes the cast. The "amirep" is an offering and "dream" been by all lovers of real comedy. The regular fall season will start next Monday, at which time the great dramatic offering. The Third Deed with a full cast, will be presented.
The Grand
"In the Draft," a military melange, is the fine offering of the Billy King company, here this week. It is one of the best things yet presented by the great company, and there is a laugh a minute. It tells the story of the inducting into the army of Billy and his side kick played by Howard Kelly, and the fun would have to be seen to be appreciated. The entire cast is dressed in khak, with the exception of the comedian himself, and the real camp flavor of the characters in the Deep," by James Reed; "Volunteer Soldiers," by Gertrude Saunders; "Keep Sending' Em Over," by Billy King; "Dixie Lon," by the Dike Quarrelers; "The Great War," by Billy King and company. Other acts on the bill were Willis and LaLbe in a fine juggling and posing novelty, Plunkett and Momalea in a singing and novelty, and Shriner and Hurner with a new line of talk, songs and footwork.
: The Monogram
The Hambone Jones company opened their engagement on Monday with a good musical comedy offering which greatly pleased the full houses at all the venues. They made an excellent impression all over the line and is actually one of the best stocks ever sent over the Consolidated. There are fourteen in the cast, among them bishen some really pretty girls, and the singers and some hot dancers, a combination which makes for nothing but a real show, which it is from start to finish. The songs used are new for the current season, and a clean sort which is so much enjoyed by the patrons of this popular theater. There are some novelty features attached which are out of the ordinary, and, taking it up one side and down the other, to say that the Hambone outfit is in for a whole lot of Chicago popularity.

THEDA BARA
THEDA BARA
Famous Screen Star Will Be Seen in "The Two Orphans," Featured With "The Geozer of Berlin." The 1918 version of "The Two Orphans," in which Theda Bara is starred, play thalasthenia been made into a powerful power play, will be shown at the States theater for three days, beginning on Thursday of the present week, or in other words, on Friday.

Theda Bara is short synopsis of "The Two Orphans" and Louse are sent to an uncle in Paris after Henriette's parents have died.

MADAM HACKLEY
Famous Musician and Teacher Has Great Strength
Great Success in Detroit, Mich.
Michigan's first folk
Song Festival, directed by Mme.
E. Azalia Hackley and managed by Dr.
D. Northeros, which was given for
the first time in 1981 at the
Armory last Saturday night, was
one of the finest successes ever put
on Detroit. The fact that Mery
hospital is one of the most
terprises in this section of the
country, coupled with the remarkable pop-
ularity of Detroit, who is really
a Detroit product, made it
assured success. The great auditorium
was well filled, close on to 3,000 being
prominent white people of the most
surrounding territory. It was a
remarkable audience, made up of re-
memberable citizens from every walk in
The program, which was a widely diversified one, included work by a chorus of 300 voices, and the manner in which they brought out remarkable results. Never in the history of musical life in Detroit was such singing heard, and the members of the chorus, used either in solo or ensemble music, or members of the Race, added novelty as well as producing remarkable enthusiasm. Solos, duets, quartets and choruses all came in for their many merited appreciation, and the program, although of unusual strength, went through like clock-work under the direction of the separate from time to time by short period of nature by Mme. Hackley, and in this manner new knowledge was imparted to the manner which drew appreciative applause, and received from the interest of the concert.

"The Third Degree"
"The Third Degree"
Lafayette Players Will Be Seen at the Avenue Theater in Great Play, Opening Regular Fall Season.
The title explains the theme. The degree is a method employed by the actors to demonstrate from criminals. The idea of making a man confess to a crime he done is not new in stage version and can be used to but the dramatist handles it in such a clever way and develops a story framework with such true and human methods as to make it possible. There are great many moments of intense excitement. There are several scenes of suppressed emotion of which the audience can be thrilled to thrill the onlooker. There are times when the audience, almost spellbound, feels like going to the rescue of the author has made everything so plausible.
From the moment the curtain rises the action begins. A worthless art collector had been swindling society through the firm's relationship with a man, Howard Jefferies, whom he been engaged at one time, and who now is the second wife of a prominent societie man. He writes her a letter asking her to help him with his wife of his rope and if she does not come to his aid he will commit suicide. He asks her to call at his studio. Prior to her death he are introduced to young Howard Jefferies who married a waitress in New Haven, while at college, is ostracized by his family and has become a shiftless sort of fellow young Jefferies wants money on his sex life, but the art collector it has not. He seeks solace in liquor and falls asleep just before his mother's arrival. He is determined to break off all relations with the collector and gives him to understand that she will no longer be the means of his swindling her friends. She was given a collection puts out the lights, and as the curtain drops for a moment, a shot is heard. As the curtain goes up on the second scene the young man has been roughly draped in a blanket the glare of an electric light and is accused by the chief of police and two detectives of having committed the crime. After three hours of searching the house, the plaster and finally repeats as a confession, word for word, the speech of the chief. This is all taken down the authorities and he is committed. His wife fuses him alm; the young wife arrives and feeling absolutely sure of her husband's innocence, sets out to secure his release. The balance of the play is almost complete, the young woman beards a celebrated lawyer in his own library, and how she insists upon his taking the case, although he is not criminal practitioner, and the woman is cleared, is better than can be described. Be sure and see it.
THE TRIP
When the Old Roll Top Desk Man made it to Detroit late last week he had the good fortune to join on the train J. Berm Barbour, gentleman, manager, and salesman, and eyes. We had a great talk, during which we grilled everybody that we didn't like and compared notes on those that we do. In this manner we learned that the greatversation to Toledo, where no doubt the great Bernel was glad to get rid of me, an emotion which. I assure the great Bernel that he was taken from him and where he now passes out the Neer John and other crimes against humanity. John Holly, where Babe presides, makes as handsome a did in his other line, which is saying a lot, everything considered. He still enjoys a high standing with such ex- Langston, Arthur Palmer, Bill Langston and Charles Xorhough. This would look suspicious, but John has as a great reputation for his honesty as for his good looks. Detroit is a wonderful place, full of wonderful people.

A Model's Confession
Sodden libertines who prey upon decent society are relentlessly unmasked in Model's Confession, a book written by bright, bright-minded consciences, with Mary MacLaren in the stellar role. It will be seen at the States theater on Sunday of the present week.
The story revolves about a beautiful model in a gown shop, who's father, one of society's fashionable roue's, has refused to see her or recognize her as his daughter. She gives him his own social plane, so that he will be glad to tell the world that she is flesh of his flesh, the girl hires a financially stranded woman, who meets his father, how he sets his snakes for his own daughter, how her rented sweetheart comes really to love her, and finally how fate with a thun-ness makes one of the most vitally interesting dramas. Don't miss it.

I told him, 'Tuskegee,' he said, 'well don't drill tomorrow; come to the office.' * * * I looked and among the papers found a warrant which summoned me to the rank of a non-commissioned officer, the First Sergeant of my company."

A runner
By Nettie George Speedy
We of the golfing world were happy. We were shaking each other's hands and otherwise manifesting signs of joy, for had not two of our boys qualified for the city golf championship? And it was the first time in history that any Race men were to be entered in a championship golf game with their white brothers.
Our hopes had been centered upon four entries, but George Kimbro was sick. Walter Speedy had a rheumatic arm. Henry Johnson was decidedly off, and Robert Ball of Atlanta, Ga., was having his first experiences on a public course and seemed to be so nervous, so when we found out that in spite of our 115 two of our boys would be entered in the tournament we had a right to be proud.
Imagine our surprise the next morning when we read the daily papers and found that our boys' names had been entirely ignored and the names of 60 white boys were given full credit and no mention was made of either Walter Speedy or Robert Ball, who had turned the trick for our Race.
Ferrets Discrimination
Fortress Discrimination
Upon hearing Mr. Wetzel I immediately sought George Wetzel (white), the official starter, and courteousness itself, and asked him who was responsible for the discrimination, and he, being in ignorance of the omission himself, asked him where we went forth to get credit where credit was due, and our first attack was at the base of John Pratt, one of the promoters. Mr. Pratt denied knowledge of any discrimination in my direction which issued vapor of this description. "Why, Joe Davis of the Chicago Tribune took the scores and it is not our fault if the names were left out. And furthermore, Mr. Pratt publicly used his own judgment." I had donned my gas helmet before he was quite through and he was not prepared for my counter-attack when I replied: "It is publicity, not fair play, our newspapers have their own representative here; but the boys have paid their entrance fee to the Red Cross and it looks to me as if it is 'taxation without representation,' and I have no wish to dictate to it; but it would make quite interesting reading in the political world to know that Mr. McCormick was running for U. S. senator and touring the state for votes in the general election, would not recognize the athletic prowess of members of our Race."
Result—annihilation, and the next morning every daily in Chicago let it be known that men of our Race were contenders for the golf championship. The news must have circulated quickly that the allies had received recognition, for the boys soon had quite a gallery following them, and at last made remarkably long drives with had made remarkably long drives with close proximity to me remarked to his friend: "What do you think of those two shines?"

Sunday Baseball Affected
New York, Aug. 30—Police Commissioner Enright last week issued special instructions to commanding officers concerning Sunday baseball, played in inclosed fields. The order reads: "In the case of Sunday baseball games played in inclosed fields commanding officers will take the action indicated below, when a fee is charged in individual indwelling mission to the field, summary arrests will be made. If programs or score cards are sold inside the grounds without undue insistence, and at the same price as would be asked under standard conditions, evidence of these acts will be taken and presented to the court. If the public is admitted free, with no discrimination and with no subterfuge, as possession of programs or made asymptomatic, the game will be allowed to proceed. If

Thursday the Premiums came back for a try with the Libby-McNeil team and took the lead in the game and took the lead in the league. On Aug. 21 the Stewart All Stars put one over on Farmer's Red Sox in the tight ball. Stewart's men managed to get two men across the plate on a scratch hit, a single and a long fly.

As a result of the little affray which happened Sunday, Aug. 11, between Sylvester Russell, the used-to-be dramatic critic, and Billy King, prominent celebrity of the footlights, had its final airing before Judge Berrasa at Harrison Street court Saturday morning last. Billy told his story, showed the court how he wrapped the coat-tall of his opponent around the telegraph pole in a very calm, careful way. Then it was Russell's turn. He squared himself off with what appeared to be a prepared speech, but Judge Berrasa stopped him in his wild career and said, "hold the dramatic stuff. What I want to know is how you came to break this gentleman's glasses?" B. Russell couldn't explain very handily and for his being dense he was taxed $16.50 by the court. Not having his right pants on, he spent Saturday night and Sunday in "durance ville." They say that Editor Russell is now without a medium-through which he can vent his spleen. It is said, however, that he contemplates issuing a handbill at his earliest convenience.

American Giants Win Satur-
day at White Sox Park
The American Giants won again from the Cubans Saturday at Comiskey park, a score of 3 to 0.3, and that would be enough to add that the Giants had two men in their lineup who worked creditably, Thompson from the East, a pitcher, and Webster on first from Texas. But we convinced the Cubans can't count, and they played in their madness. They got away with gaining from the A. B. C.'s by only playing eight innings, and Saturday after nine were played they hollered eight, and the funny part of it was that quita a the stands sided with them, whether they played in baseball for the money or just to be a home team, they also set up a cry of eight innings.
Just read the game by innings and see where the Giants put out twenty-seven.
Gunt them, twenty-seven.
First inning, lumbrush hit by pitched ball, Fortuondo put on foul, forcis, Barr died, second to first, and Forrenti filed out to Duncan. Giants: Barber out, short to first; DeMars safe on Portuondo's low throw; Hill safe on Port's fumble, DeMoss going to Duncan filed to right, DeMoss scoring to Duncan filed to second and went to third on a poor pitch scored when Forrenti dropped Francis fly; Dixon struck out. Two runs, no hits, four errors.
Second inning—Queen popped out to DeMoss; Pedrosa out, second to first; the catcher close to the stand; Giants out, second to the stand; Giants out, second to the stand; Mendez popped to Jimenez. Thompson got his base on balls and BarberSONG out to the catcher. Third inning got short to first; Jonce got a hit; Jimenez was hit for the second time; Fortunaida fled to left; Barr got a hit, scoring Jonce; Prentit was passed purposefully, filling in the gap. The do was a fly to Duncan. For the Giants DeMoss grounded out, third to first; Hallie lined one to the fence in DeMoss; Prentit three bases; Duncan sent a sacrifice to Hill, and Frances flew out to left. Fourth inning—Padrosor out, second to first; Campos got a hit; Villa Mendez got the Jonce forced Campos at Duncan; DeMoss. Giants: Dixon out, second to first; Webster safe on Villa's muff; Mendez popped to Pedrosa and Thompson. Fifth inning—Jimenez gets a hit; Port out, short to first; Barr and Forrenti both popped to Mendez. Giants: Barr got short, DeMoss got a Hill sleeper to Pedrosa and Duncan fled to left.
Sixth inning—Queen got a hit and stole second: Pedrosa and Campos first: Light; Villa went out, pitcher first: Light; pitcher first: Walk; Dixon popped to Jiminez; Webster grounded to Pedrosa, who got Francis at second, but Webster was out, as the return was slow. Mendez got to first, and Thompson struck out, retiring the side.
Seventh inning—Jonce out, second to first: Jiminez just beat out a low stole second and went to third on Dixon. He hit a short shot to short left and Jiminez bluffed run to draw a throw from Duncan to the plate, but he threw to Francis, who doubled a double side dive, completing a double play. Baber struck out; DeMoss holested to Forrent; Hill out, second to first.
Eighth inning—Baron out to Webos unassisted. Forrent got a hit, that was too much. Queen sacrificed him to second; Dixon struck out and Webster fled to center.
Ninth inning—Count them. Pedro
out, second to first; Campos got
out, second to first; Jance got a hit,
scoring Campos; Jance fled out to
center and Portuondo fled out to

HILLDALE TRIMS CUBAN STARS
Cubans Get Decision Reversed, But Also Lose
Darby, Pa., Aug. 30.—Hilldale won a fast start in the fighting spirit of the Hilldale team predominated.
The Cubans took exception to Chief Umpire Smith's not calling Pettus out at first when he was safe. Thousands on the first base line yelled for the man on the field, and the Cubans walked off the field. As usual, Hilldale was ready to give the fans a real treat by having the man called out, giving the Cubans an audacious downs across with the winnings and sacrificed downs across with the winnings and Santop in hitting. Reese made three spectacular catches in left field. Lundy's fast work at short and young Johnson's grit in hanging on to the ball that the Cubans hammered down the third base line featured in the victory.
William Buckner, better known as "Dr. Buckner," the man who piloted the White Sox to victory, it is said, will have a first-class baseball team next season, according to rumor around ninety-fifth and State streets. As the Darty-fifth and State streets, Dr. Buckner could not be seen to verify the fact. However, if he does organize a team, according to the experience he has had with the art of baseball, he will give the several baseball "chiefs" a run for their money.

Lee Thrilla in Century
Again, Clarence Lee, running under the colors of Doolittle, furnished a thriller in the dash events, and surely in the century when he led a crowded race in 15 yards in 10:1. In the 60-yard event in easy style in 5 3-5. The past performances of this little dash have earned him admission to the A. A. U. games, which are to be held here in the near future, and in this contest Lee was the winner (white) of the Cherry Circle runners, who holds record for the century event.
Harrison Takes High Jump
All entries conceded the high jump to Doollittle, especially with Lawrence Harrison performing, who won in a leap of 5 feet 5 inches, and then retired amid applause. Arlo Randall and Harrison jumped to a tie with the mark at 5 feet 5 inches. Harrison took a third in a coin toss. Doollittle annexed further points in the $80-yard event, when Harrison ran first in 2:10, closely followed by Lloyd Smith of the same team. In this event third place held, in this instance by G. Penny of the Harmony club, yards from the tape he weakened, and Kallish (white) of Carter eased in.
Cecil Lewis, who on several occasions has appeared running under the colors of the University of Chicago and has won distinction for his performances in

Jones Wins Wrestling Match
An added feature of the affair was a wrestling match between James Williams of the Chicago police force and the Chicago fire department. This event required a fire raiser. For 23 minutes and 40 seconds they swayed in fierce grapples, and the crowd swayed with them, likened to those groups so common in the old days. Tiring his heavy adversary with insult punishment, Jones secured a leg hold and a half nelson which ended the contest. The meet closed with an exhibition game between the American and the Cuban Stars, in which the former conced the wiry islanders into taking a 3 to 1 beating. The events: 50-yard dash; C.

A. B. C.'s Have Disbanded
It appears that the Indiana clerks away quite a bundle of from the back to the front, able to reciprocate in Rm. Foster has had difficulties all to prevent the situation in colony. From going to the winds. As a result he has been able to financial sacrifices. We learn that the man is sponsor for the Cubans, so it is up to him to keep them忙碌. Mr. Foster would have been much more to his advantage than the Cubans on his tour to Pittsburgh and Washington, but he was led to believe that baseball at Indianapolis was the state unless assistance was forthcoming, suit, it was expressly agreed that Foster would arrange a schedule to the advantage of the three big colored clubs. The schedule was made out, the Indians club was made out, the peasants now that their disbanding has canceled the most important and profitable end, both for the Chicagoans and the Indiana club. A careful canvassing of the players brought to light the fact that there is a wealth of good playing material lying idle, and the same could be whipped into loo and shaped up into a favorite Chicago Giants, under Joe Greene, together a team that gave the champion Jollets a much harder tussel than the American Giants, even if the latter were much smaller. There are enough players to make a high class lineup, but it appears that the owners or managers of color, just won't stick. So it would not surprise them that the Giants depended upon the other race altogether for attractions in baseball.
Mr. McClain (white), sporting editor of the Chicago Evening Post, "Rube" Foster of the American Giants, Dave Wyatt, sporting writer of nautical novels, and the doctor of the White Sox to victory, are loud in their praise of the sporting page of the Chicago. Defender. They say the last two issues were excellent in point of makeup and news matter.

In this fight it is important to select men to serve in public office whose conservative attitude on things matters. Carrier men are no elements of suspicion.

Primitive Men Battle Over Love of Woman
Charles B. Cole, 3881 Wabash avenue, was carved by James Hammond, 66 West Thirty-seventh street, in a free-for-all melee last Wednesday. It was a celebration of the occasion, by extreme jalousy existing between the two men for the hand of Miss Bertha McCree (not Mother McCree). Cole objected to Hammond's rough treatment of Miss McCree and sought Hammond's permission. Hammond "told." Instead of venting his irony on Bertha, Hammond turned his knife in the direction of Cole, and with one violent swing came near amputating the right arm of Cole. He was taken to the hospital, 8 East Thirty-seventh street, for medical aid. His wound is serious.

While the policemen were busy in their "I'll stop you from walking around here talking to niggers." The white policemen who travel beats in the Second ward might as well make up their minds that the day of mistreatment people will not be tolerated any longer. It is said that this officer's name is Nierman. Alderman Anderson intervened in behalf of Miss Powell, and the case was dismissed before Judge Fishman has been placed before Chief Alcock for final adjustment.

The picture is an up-to-date reproduction of world war conditions, with our brave Race soldiers "going over top" and the Germans falling back beaten by Americans. Abraham Lincoln is appropriately in the upper right corner and on a rock in the lower section of the picture are the words that will fill every loyal American with pride, "The first American to plant our flag, on the firing line."
This picture will be nationally distributed by the Langston & Brasster Circulating Bureau and all regular who become agents now will have an opportunity to handle the picture and all other pictures and novelites handled by the bureau.

Readers interested should write immediately, addressing all communications to Tony Hill, 3129 State street, Chicago, IL."
$3,000 Blaze in State Street Flats
A fire of unknown origin, resulting in damage of upwards of about $3,000, attacked the four-story apartment buildings at 3621 and 3523 State street last Friday afternoon, routing scores of firefighters and cleaning establishment and occupants of Webb's fashionable studio, into the street. A 2-11 alarm soon filled the streets with changing fire wagons and curious pedestrians, the braved the firemen and put out the flames had gained headway. Fanned by the high wind, the fire spread rapidly to adjacent apartments and at one time threatened the chemical rooms of Weber's plant, but only the fire of the wind avoided this catastrophe.
The fire started presumably about 1:45 in the middle bedroom, leading to an air shaft in the apartment of Mrs. Brown widow, who lives on third floor of the apartment, detected the blaze, but not until it had gained considerable headway, fanned into ferocity by the currents that swept the areaway. She fought her way through a cloud of smoke and dragged Mrs. Brown, who lay an invalid, to a place of safety. About the same time C. L. Fain, a roofer in the apartment of Mrs. J. M. Seaths, 3521, was attracted and in a vain attempt to throw water from a window until the smoke drove him out. Before the firemen arrived the fire had swept down the air shaft to the apartments of Mrs. C. Harris, 3523, and 3521, on the third floor of the apartment of Mrs. Mary Ford, 3524, fourth floor, and Mrs. Lillian Ward, 3523, fourth floor.

Officer Rowell Reinstated
Alderman Louis B. Anderson again
scored this week with the civil service
compmission by having relinsted to
his position as Patrolman Charles G.
Rowell, who was discharged from the
forces after being recalled. It will be recalled that Rowell, along with his partner, Williams, were taken over to the state's attorney's office and upon the person of Williams was found a book containing memoranda which the state's attorney charged with before he was arrested against them and they were tried before the civil service commission.
通
Officer Rowell
After the hearing the commission found them guilty and they were discharged from the police department. Officer Rowell, after making repeated attempts to matter up with Alderman Anderson, the alderman investigated the facts in his case and concluded that an injunction brought him done him. He accordingly brought him to the commission of the civil service commission, who after listening to his explanation, granted Rowell a rehearing. Upon the hearing that Rowell was in nowise guilty of the offenses charged in the original complaint and that he was largely the victim of an erroneous conclusion that the officer was found on the person of Officer Williams. The commission thereupon entered an order effecting the former order of this charge and ordered him restored to duty. The chief of police on Tuesday and Officer Rowell was notified to report for duty.
Alderman Anderson in Case
When seen by a defender sponsor regarding the case, Alderman Anderson said, "I took up this case for Rowell because I believed that he had not ever a square deal. My policy has always been to help people possibly could to help out persons in the service whose cases merit the degree of consideration which I was conceived to be. I am glad that he is back and I hope to make good. When he wanted to pay me for my service, I told him that it was my duty to do what I had done and he did not owe me a cent."

WHY A "COLORED SOLDIERS

The attention of the Defender has been called to the prevalence of a colorized soldier's club, the parts of the country under the title, "The Colored Soldiers' Club."

If there are to be provisions made for soldiers, just say soldiers' club or an soldier who behaves his permission to enjoy the hospitality of the club.

THE OLD "PIE PEDDLER"
Those of us who have lived in southern cities, and that means most of us, will recall seeing gangs of men working on the railroad tracks or grading the streets. We observed about noon time a woman, sometimes assisted by her children, bearing large baskets filled with greasy pies, fish and meat sandwiches. This same institution is now operating in the North, and especially in the Stockyard "12" can be seen a very fat, sleek woman with her old pies and other food. Of course there is no objection to the merchant and merchandise, but if the men ing them would operate on a more neatly appearing and wholesome plan sure her wares would be more appealing and more valuable comment from the white passengers.
When we change our environment it is sometimes best to leave behind some of our surroundings, especially the fortable to go barefoot around this house or go shopping in a bungalow apron and hooded cap, but it is poor to go outside without shoes, as they are usually considered coarse. When we are in Rome, we don't have to do anything to the Romans do, but we should be careful not to use the scheme of our surroundings, and by all means seek good surroundings.

HOW NORTH DAKOTA FARMERS HELP DEMOGRACY
(Special to the Defender)
Fargo, N. D., Aug. 30—Unfortunate for the farmers in this part of the country, they are allowing their race prejudice to prevent them from giving their votes to the farmers to fight the war. Several attempts have been made by competent young Colored men to secure employment on the farms throughout North Carolina. The fact is refuted from those to whom they sought employment. The fact is evident that the spirit of the Hun has found a lodging place in this part of the coun-

Delivers Eloquent Add

Delivers Eloquent Address in Plea for Justice, Equality and
pastor of Original Providence Baptist church. Mrs. Juliet Dae Cameron of the west side presided at the organ. After the song, "Keep the Home Fires Burning," sung by James W. Brown, directed by J. Wesley Jones and supported by Providence choir, the master of ceremonies then in a very fit and appropriate speech, introduced Dr. L. H. Harrison, clan of the west side, who in turn introduced the Hon. William H. Harrison, speaker of the evening.
First paying a high compliment to the work being done through the agency of the Young Women's Christian Association, he said that Miss Edna Cook, through consistent training and merited her position as the light for the young woman of our community. Choosing for his subject, "The Negro and the War," recounting deeds of valor played by soldiers of the civilization of the civilization of the world was being tested, the speaker said, "we have contributed 157,000 of the best blood of our young manhood, that the world might be democratized, and that freedom and liberty might be a reality for all of us." We shall want, when this sagrificue of blood is over, and our boys come marching home, those whose good fortune it shall be to have escaped without paying the supreme test—I repeat our same democracy for them, in their own country and under their own flag which they so freely and willingly crossed the seas and offered their life's blood that it might be given to others.
Equality of opportunity must be insisted upon," said the speaker, "especially since we have observed so regiously the equality of service. The fact that we have insisted on having strayed the last vestige of that right claimed by the sons of privilege. We are contributing our full share to the cause of the great conflict, paying freely the purchase price, asking only a fraction of the cost needed, and when the battle shall have cleared away, and the contending forces are melted back into civil life, we shall insist that our reward shall be shared in this blood bought democracy.
The orator delving into ancient history, exploring with amazing accuracy the merits and demurges of the Caesars, said: "A man, a race or nation added a proportion to their religious observance of laws, to their legal rights of others, and that whenever they forgot God in the operation of their governments, their fall was inevitable." Citing specific incidents in ancient history where kingdoms and principalities had caused to exist by reason of the demoralizing influences of their rulers, the king of autocracy must not be permitted to influence influences at home which were operating for the destruction of the German kultur across the sea.
The services were closed with the song, "Over There," sung by the assembly, and the song, "America," rendered by the Providence choir. The biodiversity as delivered by Tev Lucius Drain, pastor of Friendship Baptist Church.
The daily newspapers of Mattoon, Ill., carried an extended account of the marriage in that city on Wednesday, Aug. 21. of Miss Zelia Powell to Alison Mattoon of Chicago. Marriage occurred at the house of the bride, only the relatives and intimate friends of the contracting parties being present. Miss Katherine Ellis of Chicago was bridesmaid and Howard Reed, Dearborn, Michigan. The couple left early Thursday morning for Chicago, where Mrs. Lovett is a teacher in the public schools. Mr. Lovett is a graduate of Tuskegee Institute and an honor graduate of Fisk University and a responsible position in one of Chicago's largest publishing houses.

Following the announcement of Fatti Brown's big musical at Quinn chapel on Oct. 1, much interest is being shown as well as an amusing but earnest demand on the part of her assistants to receive it equally as profuse as that of the greatest performer in the program will be one of amusing and interesting rivalry. Many requests are being made to Mrs. Brown to render numbers highly favored by her audiences in the past. Chicago Umbrian Glee Club (established in 1920) whose personnel is composed of Chicago's is preparing numbers which will have their first rendition before a Chicago audience, and H. H. Ferrell Jr., the little master musician who is soon to take up the studies of the scholarship awarded him at Northwestern University; will overtime preparing for this appearance, he considers an anniversary of his debut before a Chicago audience.
As a result of a strike on the part of the checkers of the car storers' department of Armour & Co. men of our Race were put in these places. It is reported that the checkers struck because they did not get extra pay for overtime, notwithstanding the fact that they were allowed a half holiday. The head of the team consulted with the superintendent of the firm decided to use the men for this particular work. J. M. Morse, formerly a student of Talledega College, was made foreman and told to organize a gang. He lost no time and found the suitable men has been the practice to break in news and let them serve as apprentices for at least two weeks. These boys had no time to practice, but jumped in and made good. This is simply another case where the opportunity came and the men were ready for it.

Provident Hospital Commencement
On Monday evening, Aug. 26, graduating exercises were held in the parlor of the Freer Nurses' home at Provident hospital for a portion of the nurses of the class of 1918. The Rev. Duncan C. Milner, president of the hospital, presided. The opening song was "The Star Spangled Banner" led by all the nurses and sung with power. Dr. Milner made a brief address, referring to the great demand for nurses, the need of special qualifications, physical, mental and spiritual, and the coming opportunities in nursing. He spoke of the present superous condition of the hospital and the interesting fact that in the interval without a regular superintendent Miss Wetherall, acting superintendent, her associates of the resident nurses had been doing most efficient work. Dr. Milner referred to the larger plans of the hospital in the post graduate school and urged the audience, they had not done so, to read the spirit of institution in the last number of the Invader by Dr. A. Wilberforce Williams.
Miss Madaline Bernaugh, one of the undergraduates, sang "The River" with fine effect. Dr. R. Reginald Smith, a member of the hospital staff, made the address to the graduating class. He said he considered Provident hospital the most useful institution in Chicago identified with the people. He spoke of the fine ministry of the nurses and the great pay of the hospital today. He also paid a high tribute to the post graduate school that would give our physicians of the country their only opportunity for study and practical work in keeping up with the advance of science and surgical practice. He urged upon the nurses the idea of phlebotomy for their work. President Milkerson jokes to the following young women: Virginia R. Steele, Iowa; Braden A. Scott, Missouri; Wilfred T. McKarline, British West Indies. The acting superintendent pinned upon each one the gradating pin. The school hymn "The River" was dismissed with the benediction after the exercises the nurses' friends had a social hour.

National Equal Rights League Invites Colored Race to Assemble in Chicago, Sept. 17-19 to Get Race Rights for the Poissonage of Full and Equal Democratic Rights—An Unprecedented Opportunity.
To The colored Americans:
They are the unusual and unprecedented in the history of Americans of African descent. Not only are they taking part for their country within the European war for democracy but within the United States the proscriptive Colored gatherings of entirely different make-up have lain before the government of the United States the proscriptive Colored Editors and others were called together by the War Department, to which it made complaint. The Nation-instituted Liberty Congress was called by a national Colored people's convention. From both meetings good is resulting.
Expressed in plain, uncompromising English, the congressional record brought squarely before the House of Representatives, and before the American people, by said Library Congress, and were made prominent and persecuted by the congressional Records. (June 29, 1818.)
It seems providentally fortunate, therefore, that this noteworthy achievement, greens it to be so soon followed by the eleventh annual convention of the National Equal Rights League, to be held in New York city, Mrs. Ida B. Wellesley, champion of equal rights, brought to the memorable Last September at the memorable tenth annual convention of our league in New York city, Mrs. Ida B. Wellesley, champion of equal rights, brought to the memorable invitation to hold the league's 1918 convention in the city of Chicago, where unanimously and nearly accepted. At Chicago, Sept. 17-19. Therefore, by the authority vested in Mrs. Wellesley, the National Equal Rights League, I do hereby issue this call for the eleventh annual convention of said league to convene on Wednesday and Thursday, of Sept. 17, is and 18, in the city of Chicago, Ill. Fellow comrades of the National Equal Rights League, and others, I cannot even rightly respond to urgently important it is that our people in all sections of the country should be prompt and earnest heed to this call. Let every community join this Colored liberty organization drive. Let us a race get ready to enforce our national democracy as an issue of this world war.
Therefore, let us get together for organization as a race to enforce our claims to world democracy. Every church of education, trade, politics and business organization among our people, without regard to sect, sex, or party, are invited to be represented in the Chicago convention of several delegates to deliberate on the question of Race for self-defense. An especial appeal is made for the quick formation of equal rights and democracy for all people, the purpose of sending delegates to this national convention for Race organization for liberty. Yours for equal rights.

THE HARVEST
ONCE UPON A TIME, so the story goes, a small band of earnest men and women, with their families, started out in their canvas-covered wagons to find a home in the far West. One day they were detected by a pack of wolves whose sole mission on earth seemed to be to feast on the flesh that covered these travelers' bones. The little band, after a hasty conference, decided to throw all their food stuff to the hungry beasts and flee while they were appeasing their appetites. An hour later the same pack, with additions, were on their trail. Another conference concluded with an agreement to sacrifice one of the children. The wolves, strengthened by food and crazed by the taste of human blood, soon again rushed on after the migrators, howling louder than ever. The third conference brought a decision to stand and fight, with the result the wolves that did not suffer death were frightened back into the forest.
A good story should have a moral. In this it clearly shows the folly of temporizing, of substituting palliation for retaliation. It drives home the fact that everything worth while is gained only after a fight, a fight with brains as much as with brawn. It is plain to all that we have suffered, since our entrance into this land, every kind of injustice patiently, tossing, like the band of migrants, our daintiest morsels in the vain hope of appeasing the appetites of the wolves in the shape of human beings who have followed us threateningly. But we, like the migrants, have seen the error of our ways and decided to fight—not tomorrow or the day after—but TODAY, and every day thereafter for the rights guaranteed under the fourteenth and fifteenth amendments to the Constitution of the United States.
The time is ripe for striking at a wrong the moment that wrong bobs up. The fact that our country is at war offers no excuse for one class of citizens attempting to abridge the rights of another class of citizens simply because, numerically, they are stronger. It offers no excuse for discrimination based on color. When the government took tentative control of the railroads of this country it made each and every citizen a shareholder, with the same rights and privileges. If the powers that be can commandeer every railroad, depose every official, and run the various roads as one, why is it not possible to abolish the "Jim Crow" cars of the South? Why must the state laws in this particular instance be observed? In times like these is it not the duty of every good citizen to allay friction? We do not ask that CHARITY, but JUSTICE, bein at home.
While brothers, sons and fathers are "over there" giving their lives for the cause, mothers, sisters and daughters are over here riding in "Jim Crow" cars, insulted and lynched by, as the Southern press puts it, "some of our best citizens." The wolves have been feeding on these things and have become fat and arrogant, while we have been passive. When we place a three-cent stamp on a letter we hold the government responsible for its safe delivery. It goes North; South, East, West, all over the world. Passing through white hands and black hands, no question is asked as to whether it is the letter of a white or a black person. The white mail carriers of the South deliver the letter written by the black man and no questions are asked. The government says it shall be so and it is so. The fight isn't all on the other side of the water. Those of us who remain at home have a double task; we must furnish means for those at the front to successfully carry on the war and we must fight with our neighbors, not for self-aggrandizement, but fight to get simply what is due us.
---
The outside people must ask what manner of people are these who leave their own shores to fight for that which they do not sustain in their own land. Does it resolve itself into "do as I tell you and not as I do?" President Wilson has intimated that he will stand no more lawlessness, that the Federal government means to protect all citizens, and these wolves who have lived in luxury by the sweat of our brow he undoubtedly will tell in no uncertain tones that it is time to put on the brake or there will be a collision. We are high enough, broad enough, and resourceful enough to give of our number and of our means all our government wants to fight the Allies' common enemy and then have enough of the essential qualities to strike hard and fast at every form of discrimination contrary to law, to be found in our country, so when our boys do come home they will find, not only the home fires burning, but what they risked their lives for abroad, TRUE DEMOCRACY.

Vardaman Falls
As the duper and idol of the "hill-billies," the astute player on ignorance, passion, and poor judgment, W. C. Wiley, the upholder of the "White South"; the man who went to the senate, with his tongue in his cheek, to get amendments repealed; as a shrewd old Indian draped in a "Spanish cloak" or poncho: as the hero who was once drawn in triumph and a champion of the Meridian by eighty white of owen, James K. Vardaman was an amusing figure in political vaudeville; when the war broke out, he became a nuisance and a scandal. The Senator who said that "the states stabbed Germany in the back" and "land held her down"; that "American youths are to be fed to the Mitoch of war so the European people can be forced, at American dictation, to take a Republican or Democratic President as their ruler"; that "this war was the interference in this war many with commerce between New " York and London"; that the war was a matter of pecuniary gain; that he be in the senate after March 3, 1819.
Representative Harrison, a sound, loyal American, will succeed this, the Army's Armed Ship bill, the declaration of war, conscription; who opposed practically every war measure, including the war after it was declared. His sneers and smarls will soon be heard in Washington. Pre-eating pacific is a new jaws loose in him? Was he the victim of his own singular growth, grown overestimate the hill-billiness of his state? A good day's work for a good senate, the country is down the street, the inst-pacific.

SEGREGATION IN POLITICS
By A. N. Fields
The question propounded by certain gentlemen whose political ambitions had developed their better judgment, called the First Congressional district to "be a man and vote your own," opens up a wide range of discussion out of which arose a difference of opinion as to the value of such advice. It cannot be gainaid that even in the case of the engendering of race hatred in order to obtain results is induced a dangerous attitude to be taken by men and women who represent just the opposite in the green light for social and political justice.
Sets Bad Precedent
The question of any man's right to represent the people who sponsors such a thought admits of controversy itself as a fundamental argument to itself. It is a fundamental ambitions of a set of men to gain political preference must not be perplexed to override the larger and greater interest of the many people whom they claim to seek to serve. This effort to appeal to passion has served to make sure, positive and greater interest in the mankind for congress, Samuel A. Ettelson for state senate and Adelbert Roberts for the legislature in the Third Senatorial election of Francis P. Brady for the election of Edward D. Greene for the legislature in the First Senatorial district. The same political Destruction. The same destruction no man who himself exercises the right of suffrage, but the right to exercise an unwholesome influence on the people of the country, every thing for which they are fighting, robs the office seeker of the confidence and respect of those he seeks to represent the violation of both honor and honesty.
This attitude assumed by those who sponsored the *the a man and vote for our own* proposition should be and will receive a sweeping rebuke by people in the primaries on Sept. 11. It is there that the people should make known once for all that they will not vote for a sweeping rebuke in advice, which in the end will prove that they are turning to their own lips the poison chance of their own vote. The time has not come in this country when our influence and strength has reached the point where we can assume an attitude, whether political opinion apart and distinct from other races. you believe in fair play and justice you are forced to consider the advice of a *the a man and vote for your own* opinion and will serve if lived up to to destroy your political future in this country.
