He was promptly stopped by the coroner, who seemed to have seved over all attempted searching investigation, and went so far as to tell the witness that she did not have to answer the juror's question. This, however, did not deter the juror, who gently reminded the coroner of the fact that Sisters' Attorney Maclay Hayne still lived. The result of someone's carelessness.

Autoist Drives Car Over Body of Six=Year=Old Girl Just forty-eight hours after being run down by an automobile driven by Cecil James (white), 306 W. 43rd street, at 35th and State streets, last Tuesday evening, the little form of six-year-old Edith Jones which lay swathed in bandages in a little white beat Provident hospital, grew limp, a strange smile of contentment played across her baby face, and with uncany gentleness her eyelids closed—she was dead. Edith was the youngest child of Wag Dudley Jones-Young, 3424 Dearborn street. A coroner's inquest, held at the Chas. Jackson morgue, 3317 State street, last Friday afternoon, was postponed until Sept. 26. James was released on ball until that day. Scoores Witness Accident The accident occurred just about 5 o'clock. The street was alive with persons just returning home from their Georgia's Copper Fall Under Georgia's Copperhead Statesmen Fall Under Political Knife Atlanta, Ga., Sept. 20.—The total vote in the state-wide primary held last Wednesday for the nomination of a United States senator and congressman-at-large indicates that Hon. Thomas W. Hardwick and Thomas Watson were completely swamped by their respective opponents. The chief interest in the political fight was centered on the election of a senator. President Wilson expressed his desire to support William W. Harris, former chairman of the Senate and Co-chairman of the candidate to succeed Senator Hardwick, who sought renomination. Harris conducted his campaign on loyalty basis, and played Hardwick for his allegiance. Hardwick's plea for votes was based on his past reputation as a senator. The voters declared that the former senator had not passed the "acid test" with his colleague, Hole Smith, four yearsently against the passage of the Overman Co-ordination Bill. Hardwick for a number of years in the sworn enemy of our Race, and on all matters related to his campaign, voiced his sentiments inimical to our interest. He was marked for slaughter from the beginning of the race. The one perfect job of the day was the defeat of Hon. Thus. E. Watson, who contended that he should represent Georgia from the eighth congressional district instead of Carl Vinson, the present incumbent. The door to the congressional chamber was shrimp-filled. Once consolidated returns were received declaring Vinson the winner. A long distance telephone message from Watson's home town at Thomson stated that he would contest the election. That Watson will enter the race as an independent candidate is expected by his friend, John Falls. He tried this trick once before but received a second liking.

For seventeen years he served in various departments the Columbus Evening Dispatch and the State Journal, which gave him the in the top position of the first and afforded him opportunities for association with many newspaper men.

Georgia Happy Over Defeats Members of our Race throughout the state are rejoicing over the walloping given Hardwick and Watson. The removal from public office of these two men is considered one of the greatest changes the re-establishment of real democracy has brought to Hardwick's old hardship of "keep the Negro down," failed to rescue him from under the blade of the political slaughter hatchet. Watson, who bears the record of having defamed every man of promiscuity in Georgia,ington down to President Wilson, was the editor of Watson's magazine, a publication which was barred from the Four-Month-Old Alberta McWilliam Fed On Mercury, Claims City Chemist CORONER'S PROBE CONTINUES The coroner's jury reconvened Tuesday morning at the Johnson undertaking establishment, 3311 State street, to continue the investigation into the cause of the death of Baby Alberta McWilliams, whose sudden passing on the morning of August 19th at St. Luke's hospital offered grounds for a sweeping inquiry. It will be recalled that this case attracted considerable attention at its first investigation in which the fact was revealed that a powerful and unseen hand that seemed to have been calloused with "unholy gold" was guiding and directing the forces of its operation. Coroner Objects to Question. Many angles developed at this investigation which will, no doubt, show that a well planned conspiracy backed and supported by influential people caused the death of Baby Alberta McWilliams. Chemist Makes Report The city chemist presented a very incomplete report in which it was certified that a small quantity of mercury was found in the baby's stomach. Dr. Gibbs, with offices in New York and State, prescribes for the baby prior to it being taken to the hospital, testified that he did not administer any medicine which carried with it symptoms of mercury, and could not account for the presence being found in the child's stomach. Mrs. E. Hendricks, 3211 Wabash avenue, with whom the baby resided for a week's period, testified that the baby's mother upon hearing her say she wanted to give birth, she informed her that she might have it. She kept the baby for a week, but Mrs. Hendricks' mother objected to the presence of the child, owing to the fact that the child was extremely light-colored. Dr. Gibbs, who seemed to be of a very intelligent character, was presented with charity and precision. Mother Pleads for Daughter Wrs. Downing, she appealed to the stand said that after the birth of the did she went to the pawnbshop of Mr. Nierman, who is said to be the herer and inquired of him as to what intended to do for the unfortunate child.

SEPTEMBER 21. 1918 SATURDAY WRECKED CAR, FROM WHICH MANGLED BODIES WERE EXTRICATED --- Scores Witness Accident Slam Door on Watson work. Three small figures, that of Edith, her sister, Beatrice, 9 years old, and a playmate, Rachel Holmes, 3428 in the middle of the street as they in crossing observed an east bound 35th street car draw up to the corner. Assess her skipped on, on hand in a comma scream was heard, when suddenly a dark flash shut off the view of the children. The dust cleared and there lay a truce with her eyes filled with bitter tears. The car stopped and Officer James Williams of the Cottage Grove avenue station, who was standing on the car, stopped inside the car and ordered James to drive to the Provident hospital. Witnesses say that James, driving at a fast clip, failed to stop as the street car drew up to the corner, and in try- head Statesmen Political Knife mails when the United States entered the war because of its alleged disloyal utterances. In a speech at Crawfordsville, he declared his opposition to a standing army, which might mean civil rights when the war is over and renewed his attack on the Catholic church, claiming it an institution primarily against the progress of mankind. He once ran for president on the People's Party ticket, but was whipped at the ballot box unmercifully. Mrs. Frankie Clar Prison on Man Mrs. Frankie Clark Sentenced to Prison on Manslaughter Charge When Mrs. Frankle T. Clark was put on trial Monday morning before Judge Thomas G. Winds in the Criminal Court building for the murder of Mrs. Sadie Hunter, her roomer, at 3569 Forest avenue, June 17 last, she seemed to put her faith in "the silent witness" as her strongest ally to gain her acquittal. Her defense, when she claimed that Mrs. Hunter was vanced upon her with an open razor in her hand and threatening to kill her, at the same time calling her vile names, she fired the shot which caused Mrs. Hunter's death. Mrs. Hunter's cell to Mrs. Clark's story, and Wednesday morning a verdict of manslaughter was returned against her.

BOOKER T. WASHINGTON ACCEPTS BIG GOVERNMENT JOB Florence, Ala., Sept. 20.—Booker T. Washington Jr., son of the lamented educator, has accepted the position as claims adjuster representing the 9,000 Race employees at the United States government air nitrate plant at Mussel Shonls, Ala. Hunter roomed with her about a month prior to her death; that the Saturday before Mrs. Hunter's death the two women had quarreled about the amount of ice that Mrs. Hunter should buy, as fifty pounds of ice. Why fifty pounds of ice, according to the turn, and Mrs. Hunter accused Mrs. Clark of "hustling" on her roomers and saving her own money. The following Monday night, about 11:50. Mrs. Clark demanded that Mrs. Hunter give up her room, and then—the tragedy. No Quarreling Heard No razor was produced and none was seen by any of the witnesses, and Mrs. Elizabeth Wilson, 3659 Forest avenue, Elizabeth avenue, roomers in Mrs. Clark's that time, both testified that they heard no quarrelling of any sort that night, but were awakened by the victim's conversation. Mrs. Hunter was from Lexington, Ky, and bore an excellent reputation. She left a daughter 11 years old. Bogus Red Cross Collector Lands Behind the Bars Macon, Ga. Sept. 20—By displaying a card purporting to be signed by President Wilson, and bearing evidence of authority to collect funds for the Red Cross Society, E. W. Calloway, a resident of Tifton, was arrested as an agent of the Tifton jail to await trial. Calloway collected funds from the various Masonic lodges throughout the city, and had also received donations from schools, church and other institutions. It is estimated that he has collected hundreds of dollars by his scheme. VOTERS SHOW REAL DEMOCRACY AT POLLS By A. N. Fields The primary election of last Wednesday developed some new figures on the political horizon. A few people, as usual, were disappointed, which must be expected in the game they call politics. Some peculiar things occurred in the first district. The old settlers will remember that it is not the first time that peculiar things have occurred in the first district. It was there that the fight waxed warm between the Hon. Edward D. Green and the Hon. Shaderick B. Turner, both ex-producers of the legislature and both rivals for a seat in the general assembly. Turner Beats Green Brother Green was backed by the Hon. Edward H. Wright, the heavy man on the Thompson pay roll; State Senator George F. Harding, the man who deals out the change for the brothel; Alderman Louis B. Anderson, the mayor; Alderman Robert R. Jackson, Dr. Archibald Carey and the Hon. Samuel A. Ettelson, state senator from the third district. This brilliant array of talent and money was championing the cause of Brother Green. These geniuses had a few days prior to the election and they stared the "Cant lose" sign on Green. Just down the street a little further Brother Turner was met and interviewed. He had this to say: "Green's a beaten man, and have the satisfaction of not only beaten Green, but all of his beaten well." The Turner horse ran true to form, without a "political shoe" being thrown. It was Turner against the field, and Turner won. It is said by the wise one that Turner's victory was fought single-handed, and it and yet victorious in the conclusion. In the third district the senatorial fight between Senator Samuel A. Ettelson (white), Attorney James H. White and Attorney Augustus L. Williams was vigorously contested. In the beginning of the campaign it appeared that the struggle was between Ettelson and Williams, but when the votes were counted, found that Williams had run a poor campaign, the real fight had been between Ettelson and White, with Ettelson emerging victorious by a large plurality. Douglas Triumphad In the same district a hot battle for legislative laurels was also in progress, with candidates too numerous to mention. Among those who emerged were bane battles waged by the Hon. debate H. H. Douglas, organization man, and Warren B. Douglas, organization man, backed by the younger element of that district and supported by the anti-organization forces. The Hon. Warren B. Douglas deserves much credit for putting one over "the old-timer". His man was much him much success in his new venture. On the city ticket Hon. George W. Ellis succeeded in making his "goal" in the municipal judgship contest and was the only one on the Thompson ticket. He was also nominated by Chas Griffin and Col. J. H. Johnson nominated for county commissioners from their respective organizations. We have now six candidates on the tickets for election, all of whom should be nominated. All of the Republican voters of the county organization the ticket as nominated on the whole represents the highest ideals of the Republican party and should receive the support of all factions of the party. Defender Candidates Win Among other candidates who were specially indorsed by the Chicago Defender were Congressman William E. Mason, candidate for re-election for congressman at large; Charles V. Barber, the board of review; William H. Reld, the board of review, and Charles Krutkoff, candidate for member of the board of assessors. The successful termination of the campaign resulting in the nomination of Congressman William Mason was, indeed, gratifying. His role on public questions affecting the rights of man admitted of no question. SATURDAY 24th Ini Penalt W TEN OTH San Antonio ing the news sv sentenced to de riot in August, 1 Houston.

As dawn broke here Monday morning the news swept the city that five 24th infantry soldiers who were sentenced to death by courtmartial for participation in the Houston riot in August, 1917, had paid the penalty on the gallows at Fort Sam Houston. No civilians were permitted to witness the executions, which were carried through with great secrecy. The men were convicted at a courtmartial conducted in October, 1917, at which trial Brigadier General George K. Hunter presided. The sentences were approved by Lincoln Staley Barely Escapes Death; Berry May Die As the result of a collision between a Chicago and Western Indiana Railroad freight train and a crowded State street car at the grade crossing at 116th street and Michigan avenue Saturday afternoon five persons were killed outright and a score were injured, among those injured being Arthur Berry, 3114 Wabash avenue, who probably will die from the effects of having his spine crushed, and Lincoln S. Staley, 3134 Federal street, who was pinned under the rear end of the car, suffering a crushed foot. Making Flying Switch Police investigation would show that the accident was the result of a "flying switch" which was being made by the Chicago and Western Indiana Railway crew. The street car approached the crossing and finding the promenade to proceed to make the crossing which was using eight cars which had been cut off from a locomotive rolled down the slight grade toward the crossing, crashing into the passing car. The weight of the collision hurried the car forty feet away, the tracks and completely demolished a three-ton truck filled with crushed stone which was crossing alongside of the street car. The chauffeur died at the Pullman station, and was later killed. The noise of the compact was heard for half a mile around. Pinned Under Car; Lives A most miraculous escape from death was that of Lincoln Stailey, passenger, riding on the rear of the car, whose foot was crushed as the result of being pinned underneath the wreckage. He said: "Just as we ran up to the 118th street railroad crossing of the C. & I. R. R. we saw the gates were up. The conductor (who was killed) jumped off to flag the car across. Just then the switch engine jolted several of the cars down. The motorman, seeing this, became excited on more speed, and about that time the train crashed into us about midway, turning the car over and carrying it from the tracks for some distance. Presence of mind practically saved me, for I see the impending danger, clung to the iron guard, and the car rolled over I up, but did not succeed in getting my foot free." Berry, who was on the inside of the car, was pulled from the debris, having been pinned under several seats which, had been torn from their moorings. The two switchmen in the car had been taken by a motorman and the towerman of the grade crossing station are held pending investigation. Inquest into the facts of the accident will be held at the Kensington police station Sept. 28.

ROSCOE SPEAKS ON COURT HOUSE LAWN Greenville, Miss., Sept. 20—Standing on a platform on the lawn of the courthouse and protected by the shade of the stately oaks that guard the "temple of wisdom," Roscoe Conkling Simmons made last Monday the ablest, most eloquent, the bravest speech any Race man ever made here. Facing him were thousands, white and black, but mostly the humble fathers and patient sons so dear to his heart. Mingling were educated and uneducated, all touching arms, all intent upon the man who but yesterday held the title of owner of the platform sat his father, E. P. Simmons, second to none in these parts for soul and character and thrift. His mother, in her day the beauty and bells of the state, listened to the "image of her" from an automobile nearby. Pride was written on every face. And why not? Something New A Race man speaking on the courthouse lawn of Washington county is something now. Roscoe Simmons made it a thing memorable in the life of the people in this section of the world. Never did an American paint the glories of his country in richer hue, but now he has the unschooled in language easy to follow the spirit of the government under which he lives. And never has any member of the Race stood flatfooted before a southern audience, as Colonel Simmons did, and tell everybody where to get off. The biggest white people stood under his charm with the mob, and applauded his astuteness, his gameness and that overmastering wilt. Roscoe Steps Here "As side by side we fight on the fields of war-cursed Europe," Colonel Simmons thundered right here in Groenville, "as side by side we fight to make a scrap of paper; nationalism more than a 'scrap of paper'; nationalism more than in the ear of my brave white comrade and leader, and say, 'Look, Capn,' after we make treaties more than a 'scrap of paper,' let's go back home and make it distinction more than a "piece of writing."" For two hours he went on, and for two hours white and black hung on his words. He said what he wanted to say, and what his people wanted him to say, and the white people here ought to have heard that mad. That's it—he makes nobody mad. Second Speech At night Colonel Simmons delivered a second speech to a packed house at St. Matthew's, with Dr. W. T. Strong presiding. It was different, but captivating. People asked him not to stop speaking. How long he can last at the rate he is soing, is asked by many. Greenville meetings were arranged. J. Algrim and Dr. Jas. H. Miller, through the big man of this environ. While here Colonel Simmons was guest of Mr. and Mrs. Alexander, 111 Ohio street. Leading white people of the state have asked Colonel Simmons to make a series of speeches in the fall. His people are wishing he would. XMAS GIFTS TO TROOPS FUT OF TO PERSHING Washington, D. C., Sept. 20.—Christmas gifts for soldiers will be shipped this year, according to present indications. The whole question, however, is before Gen. Pershing.

Pershing does not counsel eliminating presents. WOMAN'S ARGUMENT CAUSES Philadelphia. Pa.

The men fled down Market street with the sailors chasing them. They came to 11th and fled down 11th to Locust, where they stood, when they shot a sailor and beaten him. They were taken to a hospital. Neither in a serious condition. The police arrived and dispersed the crowd and arrested four, two sailors (white) and two Race men, who were held under $500 ball for a further hearing.

FOR HAIR THAT WILL STAY STRAIGHT USE PALM CREAM AND PALM OIL The only safe and guaranteed straightener on the market. Bay, Clara, Mr. W. would be a very handsome young man on if it wasn't for his awfully bad hair, wouldn't be? 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 harsh 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 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.

To state that it is a play of types would be about right, as there are a variety of sentiments sented which are to be seen in the everyday walks of life. There is a murder mystery of the deepest sort, of the ravelling of it there is a world of Tony Langston startling and sensational situations, holding tenure interest to the final curature, and hended, the hero and the heroine are united for life, while the audience is on its feet howling the well-merited approval of the fitting climax that the hero has to experience, the interesting story of sacrifices and trials endured by a girl through her devotion to the man she loves; he has been made by the law to suffer for a crime and has been made by the law to bring about the proof of his innocence site is placed in the peculiar and startling position of being herself accused of murder. This has led to the real perpetrator of the crime, while the police with eyewitness protruding and hands gripped to the arms of the seats. There are several comedy situations throughout which causes some of the heroine to seem to be dead, you must see it. Those who are looking for excitement and mystery, as well as those who like the real drama, expect of this group of players to both be carried away with this play. Cloe Desmond, as Mary Ballard, the girl, is fine, and the part suits her to a T. She certainly has a chance to the gamut of emotions all right, and she has the courage to make her a favorite at this popular house. Andrew Bishop, is of course, "The Man She Loved," and he certainly has a hard time of it in this case. He has the sympathy of these charges, the final curtain, when he gets his to the edification of all. Clarence Muse as the bulldoizing inspector of police does splendidly, and what he does along with the faggings makes you feel like laying on a headache stick, although in the end he comes in like a man to show that he appreciates the fact that he was wrong after all. Arthur Simmons as SGARED Austrians Ask for and Germans Hint for Peace When Roll-Top Desk . Man Registers The natives of aristocratic Kenwood were worked up to a high pitch of excitement last Thursday. The noise was caused on account of the Old Roll Top Desk Man registering for the seance, taking a personal slam at the beast of Berlin and his motley crew was taken as a guarantee that the war would soon be over, with the allies victorious. The news that the O. R. T. D. Man had taken this step must have been unnerving the fact that the German chancellor, Herr von Stinkencheese, and the Austrian minister, Count von Goulash, have both signified their desire to talk over the peace question. The German men are thinking about. The O. R. T. D. Man has signified his intentions to use his influence in such a way that he will be able to get a smash at the Von Hindenburg line and a slam at the head of the Crown Prince Rupper-necht. "It's all that I can do to wait," said the well-known writer, pounding his massive chest with his fist until the well-known writer, like the bombing of a hard resisting sailor, who got over there there will sure be something doing. I don't intend to show that knot-eating gang of hoodlums a bit mercy, but have them runnin' faster than a fighter spied by Black Jack Pershing and his wonderful boys. I certainly have to give Pershing credit, which is a durnight more than a bartender was everware. There was a tremendous crowd at the place of registration to see the great fighter sign up. The lady who put him through his stunts was the first bartender ever got the benefit of him regarding the final questions, however, were of greater interest: "How much do you weigh?" the lady asked. "I am now doing 230 bedside." was the answer. "Have you any defects which might exempt you from service?" "Nothing but an overdeveloped waist line," was the laconic reply. "Well, they will soon get rid of that man, who when he gets out to camp, volunteers the lady. This remark seemed to grate on the nerves of the great hero, for he removed his chappeau and scratched his classy konk backing out of the place in a brown coat. Which was, of course, the natural color, as it were. BOOST And the World Boosts With You. KNOCK And You Knock Alone. Slip Shafer, the Detective, is a revelation. He handles the part in a way that speaks wonders for him in the future, and if it will do well to keep a secret, he will do well to keep it. He don't up to me miss our guess. Carlotta Freeman as Blonde Mabel is typical and does her Jones just like the author of the piece must have been a Despard grusome character, she hits when she comes through with the facts that turn the weeps to rudimentary joy. Elizabeth Williams as Mrs. Maloney, an Irish girl of motherly affection, right up right in her daughter, Maggie, is acted by pretty Lillian Gillam in her usual catchy way, and she keeps things in order. Arthur Ray is a hutting reporter, Arthur Ray is all that could be asked for; he is a hustling reporter, Arthur Ray is all good sense as he is of pep, and he is a bit of a bitch. Smith has the part of the murderer, and his capture at the end is welcome. Chas. Moore as the Butter, H. L. Pryor, who gets bumped off at the start, William Robinson and J. L. Criner, officers, whom you don't miss this one; you need it. The Grand Robinson & McCarver, Blondi and Billy, are the feature here for the full week, being headlined on an excellent book of five acts. They have a dandy offering, replete with snappy songs, dance, and some specially clever work by both comedians. The boys were accorded a fine lot of hand upon their appearance on Monday night, and they certainly made good with a vengeance. If this book is not a work of cork the reason will truly be in mystery: they have what it takes to make a real vaudeville feature. The Brunes are also on the bill the first half, and their return is a welcome one. If the day they way over is to be used in comedy, they have several ordinary, and has several novel ideas. Other acts were E. J. Moore in a good semi-nut single, Five American Girls, clever musicians and singers, and La Toy's Models, a group of retired dogs, with a world of intelligence. The Monogram. Mack's Merry Makers are on their second and last week here, and they are repeating the fine success of the Mack's Merry Makers aggregation department, and aside from the regular line they have a four piece jazz band that is knockout. The present week's performance at the Birthday Party, and it is full of clean comedy and fast action. There are many song numbers, among them being "Whippoorwill" by Willie Williams, "The Nearer Heaven," by Joe Loomis; "Here's a Rose for You," by Metcalf Sisters; "Me and My Gal," featured as Woods, Dance and the Syncapeted Wallet, by Mattie W spencer; finalie. Mattie W spencer, Bille Mack and Emma Williams are also members of the talent, and the jazz band is compassed by the comer; Johnnie Doods, clarinet; Steve Lewis, Piano, and Max Hills, drums. TRILBY After much laborious work on the part of the management of the Lafayette Players, they have been able to secure this, the greatest of all plays. The play to enjoy a run of 600 nights in the United States enormous profits for the producers and placing Wm. A. Brady into the theatrical field and with whom the present arrangement for this presentation happen. There has never been such a sensational dramatization of a novel as Paul Potter contrived from Dujaurier's appealing story and its unique scenes and types. Legions of girls who were mothers to their children just as their mothers did. Swengall's weird and hypnotic malice, the wistful charm of Triby's personality, the fresh, wholesome manliness of Taffy, the sweet and Little Bille, and all the brevy and breezy life of the othelian life in the Quarter Latin. There should be double claim for general interest in the Lafayette Players' presentation of this remarkable play, for it marks the advent of the play in a drama that has hitherto taxed the artists of the opposite Race. Really fine plays win something more than the vogue of the hour, and there are few that blend the thrills, romance and poetry of "Trilby," an opera that is known better now than it was when this book was first produced. Then there was a disposition to ridicule it. Now it is an established fact. The love story that DuMaurier wrote is eternal. "Trilby," from its first night in New York, was an overwhelming success, artistically and popularly. Everybody patted the auctions for it, and many others began writing stories of hypnotic theme. But "Trilby" stood and still stands up, straight and strong, ever green and sturdy in a field strewn with failures. The management of the Lafayette Playhouse will spare no expense to present it, and effects as recently done by Wilson Lackaye and Phyllis Nellson Terry at one of the big Loop theaters. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER "FOR HUSBANDS ONLY" "For Husbands Only," the very latest of the Lols Weber productions, and with Mildred Harris in the leading role, is the feature that will be shown for the two days, Saturday and Sunday of the week. The story is one of the most unusual and at the same time sensational ones ever filmed and, in part, is as follows: Convent bred, Toni Wylde had suddenly married Samuel Dodge as a soace for a heart desperately wounded in its first experience in love. Many other women had learned, like Toni, that Rollin Van D'Arcy was not a marrying man. Mrs. Ellis was one and she tried in vain to warn Toni that D'Arcy was merciless and dangerous. She regarded Samuel merely as a means to this end. So successful was she in her first studied flirtation and so sure was she of Samuel's utter devotion and trust in her that D'Arcy soon came to realize that he wanted Toni more When he found out that Toni was playing with him he resolved to force her hand and at one blew destroy the object of his desire to receive the object of his desire into his arm the private theater where he gave performances of his own plays he prepared to produce a play in which in reality the players would be him, but the audience would be the play was the same that Toni had played with him, only with the worst possible explanation given to Toni's action and tending to reveal to the love-blinded Samuel the manner in which had been hoodwinked all the time. He invited Samuel to the play, which was entitled "For Husbands Only," saying that he was very happy with Samuel's opinion. The night of the play Toni started at a call from D'Arcy, whom she supposed to be at the theater. He was dressed in traveling suit and Toni suitcase with him. He explained to Toni how to dress for the front seat where he could see and hear everything and then he proceeded to tell Toni the plot of the play. As he finished Toni realized the desperate need to tell Toni first time how much she really cared for Samuel. Terror seized her as she allowed her mind to wonder what he thought of her now. Toni said that you. He will divorce you. You better come with me while there is still time." "You beast. I would rather live with Samuel if he hated me than touch your little finger," cried Toni wildly, then the key turned in the lock. The situation was intense. "What do you think of the play?" asked D'Arcy with the emotion of a gambler who stoked his all on one throw. would not like to discuss it before you wifed can take the lead. I know you will excuse us. D'Arcy walked out, his one chance gone. But what of Toni? Would Samuel never speak to her? At last he looked up, would spot the whole room to tell him "The Hand of Vengeance, or, The Man From the Dead," one of the most gripping features ever shown to an enthralled audience, will be the adaption of the two days run of "For Husband Only." It sure is a great program. TIMELY DRAMA With the eyes of the world centered on the great events which are transpiring across the water—the stories coming back of the boys "going over the top" and the unfinishing heroism with which each one is "doing his bit"—the events that are worth watching. For Frank Frazier, ring screen story, "Berlin via America," hit close to the heart. For who among us has not sent a son, a husband, a sweetheart or a brother on into the great adventure with a smile. It is a story of an American boy—one just like we all know—who even at the sacrifice of his own good name, works for the cause which is dear to him. It is a production and plays the leading role. Opposite him plays Edna Emerson and a notable cast. Manager Paul has obtained "Berlin via America" for the States "Theater and it will be shown on Saturday and Sunday of next week. BESSIE LABELLE ALIVE The report printed in the issue of last week stating that Miss Besa LeLaelle had died at Denver, Colo., was erroneous. A letter has reached Chicago from the talented young lady, and in it she states that she is well and doing fine, her present address being 901 27th street, Omaha, Neb.

Young Lieut. Phillip Nolan was a great admirer of Burr, and Burr made him a Nolan, and Burr engaged to be married to Aaron Church to be advised by Burr to marry Natalie Somera of Boston, broke off his engagement to Agnes. Balked in his ambition for the presidency, Burr defended his position. He was a New York. Hamilton again succeeded in defeating him. Burr challenged Hamilton to a duel. Hamilton was mortally wounded. Natalie Somera, shocked at Nolan's connection with the duel, broke off her engagement to Philip. Aaron Burr now planned to start a rival government in the southwest, which should wage war against the United States and absorb it. He was defeated by Philip. Philip Nolan abetted Burr in the plan and corresponded with the latter in code. The plot was suspected; Burr was followed and arrested. Phillip Nolan had again become engaged to the fate of Agnes, and was arrested in wedding for aiding the Aaron Burr consspiracy. At his trial Nolan upheld Burr as against his own government. To the request that he give proof as to his loyalty to the United States he retreated, and he said, "I wish I might never hear its name again." Sentence was passed by his own lips. He was condemned to never again set foot on his native shores and never to hear its name again. For fifty years he sailed the seas without knowledge of him homeland. Old John Nolan recounts to his son the brave deeds of Philip Nolan's descendants, who in the country's wars tried nobly to wipe the stain from the family honor. Deeply moved by his father's recital and shamed by his father's insult, Nolan 3rd consecrates himself to the service of his country, and joins the boys in khaki bound for France.

"UNTIMELY LAUGHTER" By Clarence Muse I was sipping slowly a little nonintoxicant with the master of the Qid Roll Top Desk. You know who that is, I am sure. If not, I will take the unpardonable liberty to call his name—Tony Langston—who for once lost his smile and in a very serious tone said: "Muse, what is the cause of the untimely death of so often during the most serious occasions the dramas which are being presented at the Avenue?" Of course, I don't make a practice of talking shop after work hours, but as this was the first chance to wipe up a dramatic amnoyance, I asked if he would give the privilege of giving my answer in writing. There are several reasons, Tony, but in order to make it plain I will first explain the purpose and definite aim of this book. The aim is to pick out of life emotional sectors that will prove of interest in order to appeal through the senses to the senses man, thereby landing a moral principle. The aim is to appeal to the Avenue is cognizant of that, but I am sure that they have not said, for example, "This scene is laid on the Avenue, and am also on the Desert of Salamandre that takes place," thus creating an illusion, during which all that's of your material surroundings is lost, and to upon upon upon a frame is played upon on a august path, row, etc. It is absolutely contrary to the laws of psychic relations for people who have so prepared themselves tight when the emotion chord of pathos is when the emotion chord of hilarity is in full bloom. Now, this is the backbone of the stage, please, Mr. and Mrs. Audience; the play can't play itself; the audience plays the pay. That is, the actor acts as mirror, reflect the inner world. The audience the people who laugh so untimely during these dramas are not necessarily lignent; in most cases it is the intelligent. The fact that they have not seriously listened to an act, unlocked or broken up that materialistic shell they live in, thereby allowing the philosophies of the author to creep in, is the cause of many an untimely laugh. When the hero and villain meet in a great scene of "love vs. love," and the villain makes a plea that would barf the most learned brain, and the villain makes a plea that would tent, stands before the girl in tears saying, "Can you see that I love you? Look at me," you who have lived through the play cannot laugh; your heart aching for the hero, your admiration for the villain's subtle brain, the villain being unable to decide, would so hypnotize you that when she finally places her arms around the hero, you would be compelled to wipe your eyes, take a long breath and say, "That did my soul."

Middle-aged, the former American Association foul, opposed our hero of the season, Whitworth. The white lad was not so al-right on the bingles as he was in his last issue, when he held the home game. The second game, the Joliet finger made it mighty for the boys, and his comrade kicked him up with such a surfeit of fire that the catchers and death-sealing throw them. Giants were mighty lucky to win. The boys with the shoe-string propensities for laying the maxima got down hook, and the other players that much prison-town on long green dates in the Windy City as a result. Whitworth released one of his best plays to three one-note taps and beheaded seven single-handed. Bobby Roth, Cleveland league slugger, was the first player to capture Whit's offering, but was waived to the bench. McCabe, one of the recent world's series participants with the White Sox, cunningly cunning the to tune of two strike-outs. Jacobs, catcher of the White Sox, hit the ball four times—before the fourth boundary line of the infield. So the only fellows who did get hits were by chance were held too cheaply. Whitworth was the fielding star for his side. He had four assists and a put-out, but chance was too few, and couple of difficult chances, and B. Moss, also Wesley, sparkled in the field. Torrentil in center crushed a couple of difficult chances, and work and accurate fielding and throwing put a stop to their advance. Catcher Whitworth is the life of the game and handled Whit's speed and shoots in masterly style. Argument Cost Game Mendez, formerly one of the world's greatest pitchers, but now regular pitchers, the pitching slab in the second game. It may have been overlooked, but Mendez handled the hatted balls in the first pitch, and then each throw he did his arm no food. The Cubans' staff was of easy access to the three hats two runs in two innings. Man Whitworth was prevailed upon, so the stalwart athlete assumed the burden of running. The Giants had not scored, but in the third Petway got on via base on balls, then Whit came up and re-entered the game, scoring. Immediately a big squiggle ensured. It appears that Whit hattled out of order and the Jollets claimed the pitcher's hit but did not count in the game. The claim was allowed. When it comes to technicalities and rules Mr. Foster is on the defensive, he is always at sword poles with Mr. "Rube" over the proper interpretation of the time, but so to who was right, or "Rube," yet to be settled. Fosse's interpretation of the rule was correct, but he held his ground on the tech, which is that the captain of the home club must hold his ground in the ordering order to him before the game starts, entirely the Giants had not done so. But Goecke made the mistake after he was hit by a pitching order in newspapers. Therefore, taken from a nicoical standpoint, the captain of the Giants and umps both are a little to be determined. At any rate, so much time was consumed over the mistake the Jollet scorekeeper the proper batting order, instead of the official score. Therefore, taken from a nicoical standpoint, the captain of the Giants and umps both are a little to be determined. At any rate, so much time was consumed over the mistake the Jollet scorekeeper no good. The Jollet pitches wonder no good. The Jollet pitches winger no good. The Jollet pitches hits and six runs after the argument. The Rule If a batsman bats out of turn and it is discovered after he has completed his turn, the batsman is delivered to the succeeding batsman, the player who should have batted is out and no runs can be scored on any play made by the wrong batter. This penalty is not enforced unless the ball is delivered by the pitcher to the ball is delivered by the pitcher to Foster's contention is that the ball had been delivered to the succeeding batman and before the error was disallowed it not in force. The white fellows were all inclined to swing together, so the ball would not be posted in the post-game argument in the big office "Rube" had them all going his way. The point is, all teams should have a regular game against the Giants, not a requirement a line-up or batting order to be placed in the umpire's hand before the ball is given credit for the hit and the Giants run, we have every reason to believe that the Giants would have won out in the second game. Scores: LINCOLN GIANTS WIN Detroit, Mich., Sept. 20.—The Lincoln Giants defeated the Havilown 7 for the independent championship honors in a Colorado team that years a Colorado team has gained such honors in the City of Straits and much more.

Mr. McGillieuddy (white) known the world over as the brainiest man in baseball and part owner and manager of the Philadelphia Athletics, is the presenter of the 1960-69 final. He was the first man to introduce the snap of the finger as a foul. He developed Stuffy McInnis, Eddie Collins, Lock Barry (white) some of the world's greatest baseball artists. He received $60,000 for this bunch of players, which proved he was the wisest man in baseball.

If the missive contained peace terms or a continuation of hostilities we do not know. Wyatt does not seem inclined to go over the top at this writing. You know, C. I. is a very conscientious sort of man. He would not wifish with me, he was himself. A ball player tells this one on C. I.: Some years ago and now from the good old home rules in the South, he was known as a good base runner, also an honest man. It was at the ampitheatre called him safe on the play that was made on him, but somehow the crowd took exceptions to the umpkin decision and as our roar, thereupon C. I. did not adjust his cap, left the base and took a position in front of the grand-stands with them, and he said: "Ladies and gentlemen, and an est man. The umpkin's decision is incorrect. I therefore declare myself out."

The decision caused an argument which lasted 30 minutes. The finale, however, calmed the raging seals and everybody left, if not happy at all. The Giants were in a solar plexus that they would not soon forget. The fans say that since all the other clubs have left the American Giants, who have been giving them a chance to win, they should have a fair decision by the umpire. BLUEITT HERE FOR A. A. U.

POLICEMAN TRIES TO DISRUPT BUSINESS OF SOUTH SIDE MAN The Second ward has again become the mecca of a certain class of police activities. It is peculiar that this particular locality of the city should be infested with a police rule and regulation that is not attempted in any other district. It may be a good thing that the season business will be so short that the police government. It probably would have been better for all parties concerned had they never existed, but since they have been the primary theory, and since they do exist and the city of Chicago charges $1,000 a year an insurance fee for their existing, they should have some protection in the legitimate operation of their business as any other concern. They should be protected against political interferences, as well as any other kind of misconduct, and their rights. No "flannel-mouthed copers" should be permitted to walk into a man's place of business and tell him he serves to receive as long as those he serves are not in the city. This is presumed to be done by a new ignorant policemen who think that their star and gun give them a right to be a member of the people of their pay她们 Police Overstep Bounds It is alleged that a few nights ago a policeman traveling out of the Cottage drove avenue station, by the name of Sloop, and saloon and food店, and informed the proprietor that he (Sloop) would not permit this pro- prietor to enter his colored people and colored people his cabaret, what the meat" Officer Sloop may feel but we merely suggest to him that he is simply a policeman, not that he is that, holding a job that carries with it nothing but the right to serve it, nor that he cannot be called upon to make any law, nor that asked to set any social standing for any community. It will be wise for policemen to enforce duty. This type of little policeman might not be permitted to destroy the business of any they happen not to like.

And all the baseball players at least eyes on American Giants park, but bunches of them are clamoring or actually wounding their way to Foster's stadium. They are the Belolts. These fellows have been here before and the record rings like this. They won two games of a doubleheader against the American Giants. They lost both games of a doubleheader against the Giants. Previously, we understand, they had won five played and two on tap for Sunday, and the Giants one came to the bad, it looks like big dolos again. It comes straight that the Beloits are coming to win.

Third base position at the Giants park is hard. The portion of the infield has never been more important. A player can be said to be safe on any kind of a hit ball. Francis of the Giants and Fortune of the Cubans play together to cover third for Belotis should be safe at home; his early training was perhaps acquired upon the spot. Benny Owens and Fortune of the Cubans is said to be in tip form and we would not be surprised if "Leffey" caught or Phil Dollass of the Cubs was in watch out for the gang who planned to come and are ready. It might be that "Rube" may groom Torrentt and such a game. The Cuban is effective in good clubs, so why not Belotis other thing, "Rube" may have a real pitcher on his sleeve. Whitworth needs not having a dark home run on Foster not having a dark home run on marvel. The games will start early and the gates will be open at one time. The game will pass on single game. The one passed up may prove the banner contest of the sea. The tip is, if you want to see what you can pass up the Beloit bunch, otherwise the two games Sunday, September 22.

THE KASHMIR WAY Here are a few facts that will enable all readers to improve their appearance, health and social standing by devoting a little time to personal comforts. Never neglect caring for your appearance, as appearance means half the battle. There is nothing more attractive about a man or woman's appearance than a clear, healthy complexion. Some of the things necessary to obtain and preserve skin, the most valuable assets to beauty, are as follows: Health, pure, red blood coursing through the veins, moist, healthy, get eight hours of undisturbed sleep, all of the fresh air available. It is free and should be admitted at every window. Exercise, walk through the park where the air is purer than in the dusty, crowded streets. If you have hobbles, please take the thirstie as often as possible. Diet: Eat boiled and nutritious food, vegetable and fruit. Let meals be served at regular hours. Too much fatty food will upset the digestion and cause pimples and bad skin. Regulate constipation through diet. Eat fruit and vegetables freely and drink plenty of water. Cleanses a mouth with an aphrodisiac possible, once a week at least, and if you are troubled with perforation use a deodorant. Be sure to wash the face before retiring and use Kashmir Preparations, not one night, but every night. Look for next week's hints. Kashmir Chemical Co. 312 S.

A cordial invitation is extended to the public generally to be present. Among those who have already accepted invitations and who have forfeited their attendance are evidences of their appreciation are Gov. Frank O. Lowden, Mayor Wm. Hale Thompson, Congressman Martin B.

CHICAGO ANNUAL CONFERENCE HELD AT EVANSTON, ILL CHICAGO ANNUAL CONFERENCE HELD AT EVANSTON, ILL BISHOP LEVI J. COPPIN, D. D., PRESIDING The thirty-sixth annual session of the Chicago Conference, A. M. E. Church, opened in Ebenezer church, January Wednesday morning, Sept. 18, at 9 o'clock. Bishop L. J. Coppin, the beloved, scholarly and dignified prelate, is presiding, ably assisted by the presiding elders, Rev. James Higgins, N. J. McCracken, R. E. Wilson and John Ferguson. The annual sermon was preached by Rev. T. W. Lewa of Moline. Rev. L. H. Owens of Aurora was re-elected secretary, and Rev. J. D. Peterson recordey. A decided increase was shown along every line. Membership of the churches conference, as shown by the pastors, was greater than two thousand this year, and the conference funds have gone more than a thousand dollars beyond any previous year. Speculation is being indulged in concerning the appointments. Bishop Coppin has serious problem upon his pastor, because the amount of several pastors expire by limitation. Dr. J. C. Anderson will leave Quinn. Dr. Reeves will leave Wayman. Dr. Stewart retires from Evanston, and it is thought by some that Dr. Carey will relinquish the Institutional church. Just where these able divines will go is unknown, but one knows that Bishop Johnnin's good judgment, church loyalty and foresight will enable him to fit every man in his proper place. Whichever way you turn, however, the prevailing sentiment is that the Chicago annual conference will present a solid front, at the next general meeting, to Dr. J. C. Carey will be chosen one of the bishops. Sims-Weddington Wedding Miss Love Sims, the daughter of Mrs. Pearl Felton, 49 E. 42d street, sister of J. W.

Are U. S. Soldiers Recording students who enroll, the government says? "Students over 18 enter the fall term of the designated colleges become, by voluntary induction, soldiers in the United States army, sheltered, clothed and equipped at governmentment institutions. Privates. Students younger than 18 who shall enter any of the schools this autumn may receive similar training at their own expense until they arrive in military age, when, after registering, they may be inducted as soldiers, they may be Inducted as soldiers in the students' army training corps. "The student soldiers will be given military instruction under officers of the Army, Navy, Air Force, naval service and tested to determine their qualifications to become candidates for commissions or for technical experts, such as engineers, chemists and doctors." Selected for Service After a certain period they will be selected for military duty in one of these ways: 1. Sent to a central officers' training camp. 2. To a noncommissioned officers' training school. 3. Kept in the original school for further intensive work in a specified line for a limited time. 4. Put into technical training of 3.

Defender Inaugurates Department for Publi- cation of Subscriptions In order that we may more definitely determine with some degree of accuracy the actual value of our Liberty loan subscription and the amount that we have subscribed to the general fund. It was thought advisable to establish a central bureau for the purpose of the investments of our efforts in the fourth Liberty loan. To that end the Defender has created a special department, to be known as the "Defender Liberty Loan Department," working in conjunction with the Chicago Liberals Association to keep the desire of this department to keep the information as to the part we are playing financially in aiding war work. Hereforeo no effort has been made to keep accurate records of our subscriptions to the first, second and third Liberty loans, and as a result of this effort we have received the amount. It must not be beferred ever, that this department is acting as an agent or handling any actual money. Prof. Mundy and chorus Artists and participants Kev. W. D.

LOUIS RESIDENTS St. Louis, Mo., Sept. 20.—Director of Public Welfare John Schmitt Tuesday recommended to the board of public service that the city purchase the old Burnes and Eddy College buildings at the University, and the Contemporary Hospital buildings at the same address for $2,600, to be reconstructed into a hospital for our people. It is Schmitt's plan to draft an ordinance for the old aldermen's plan for the expenditure of the money. At present the Colored people of the city are cared for at the City Hospital in separate wards from the street, provided attended by white doctors and nurses. There has been considerable agitation for adequate hospital facilities ever since the Provident Hospital, on the street, provided inadequate. Since the Provident Hospital is attended by private parties at Theresa and Pina, many people here favor a City Hospital for the Race, hoping to have a place where the expense will come from. Many of the wards, where the sick can have the attention of our doctors and nurses. Saving the Best Till the Last THE CHICAGO DEFENDER Corp.

We're not fishing for the things we haven't got. While above the things most treasured are the worthy actions done. Most of us go chasing bubbles that seem pretty from afar. Only troubleles leaving in their wake a scar. Life is filled with joys, only troubleles leaving in their wake a scar. And we find the bright tomorrowals all too soon are yesterdays. the use in always wishing for the things we haven't little game of fishing some are lucky, some are not. Success is often measured by the dollars we have worked on the things we treasured are the worthy actions we go chasing bubbles that seem pretty from afar.

BELATED INDUCEMENTS A CERTAIN CLASS OF PEOPLE believe they have made a master stroke when they have locked the barn after the horse has been stolen. In other words, they are vested with more hindsight than foresight. This misfortune seems to have befallen the greater portion of the residents below the Mason and Dixon line. They now see as clearly as most benighted people do what a grave mistake it was to drive from their midst, by inhuman treatment, the only class of people responsible for what little growth this section has made in the past decade. That vague, "Even a worm will turn," never before has so truly beenified. The new day we are entering upon finds the southern man still sleeping—though restlessly—and it finds the Colored wake, up and doing. The first shock, great as it was, induced by the thousands who migrated, was only a forerunner of what was to come. Every day brought new perplexities, new problems to solve. In blind ignorance the law was resorted to, fines and jail sentences imposed not only on labor agents, but on laborers themselves who were on the eve of departing. Southern newspapers devoted much space to the advantages to be derived by the black man in the South, "his native habitat and the place where he is most understood," and in passing we might add, where he is mostly lynched. They painted direful pictures of the North, East and West, exaggerated the high cost of living, the unbearably cold winters, the indifference of the whites in these sections and the difficulty of making both ends meet, and every bogie man that could be raked up from the dim and distant past was called into action. But somehow the brother didn't scare worth a cent. They came away in droves and found a welcome in their new homes far beyond their expectations. Work was plentiful for all and wages of a week were equal to those of a month paid by "benefactors" in the land of cotton and sugar cane. Fortunately the greater part of the migrators were of the honest, industrious class, the kind that help where they go and the kind that are missed in the places they leave. This paper has been credited with being responsible to a great extent for the South's loss of labor. If in our efforts to see that every man gets a man's chance we have opened the eyes of the dreamers, put backbone into the weaklings, pointed the way to higher things, denounced brutal and inhuman treatment; in short, if we have only in a small measure added to the betterment of mankind, our existence in the newspaper field is fully justified. --- It is gratifying even at this late day to note the change in tone of the southern press. No longer are we regarded as by-products. Special inducements are offered to us to remain and to return. The cruelties practiced upon us by "the best citizens" are frowned upon and rewards offered for the arrest and conviction of the perpetrators. Certainly "de sun do move." In the meanwhile even the most lowly and ignorant are taking these, promises with a grain of salt, knowing by bitter experience that all is not gold that glitters. We are fast losing that baby-like trustfulness and demanding to be shown, the same as our Anglo-Saxon teachers, who hail not only from Missouri but other parts of the globe. We are nice people—pardon self-praise—to meet and know, and the sooner a certain portion of the other ninety million so-called American people find this fact out the better it will be for all concerned, for, in the words of old Abe, "A country divided against itself must fall." Political Pots Boiling RS NOT which way the wind blows, there are those on the other way. The people of Chicago by their vote desired to represent them in the different public service candidates measure up to the full requirements or not, and the policejicans are allied in situation as a necessary evil. What the payer is the attitude our representatives take in non concern our welfare. They must be right on the one our constituents out for a money consideration or for activity in the country holds as many powerful and infuriate, thanks to the general populace, who have been a know that in union there is strength, that all men are aware that in union there may have protection the few must be bokenmen. We will not have any equal for them and because we stick together. Some args given a vote not on account of his color, but on aca all things being equal, that is the only just way to do it. We must have one for us, more than the other. Their clamishness is responsible for the way we at present can do nothing wiser than to emulate the other fellow, to look out for our welfare, in the fact, "ain't got him." IT MATTERS NOT the way the wind blows, there are those who think it should blow the other way. The people of Chicago by their votes indicated that men they call to represent them in the different public services. Just when they conclude to represent requirements or not seems to be of little concern; it is taken for granted all men will men view the situation as a necessary evil. What is of vital importance, however, to the taxpayer is the attitude our representatives take in matters that concern our welfare. They must be right on the subject and above selling their constituents out for a money consideration or for additional personal favor. No other city in the country holds as many powerful and influential men as does Chicago, thanks to the general populace, who have been educated to believe and to know that in union there is strength, that all men are not born leaders, that in order that all may have protection the few must be pushed to the bottom, that in order that here because we are numerically strong enough to demand them and because we are not able to date should be given a vote not on account of his color, but on account solely of his fitness. All things being equal, that is the only just way to do, but, and here comes the rub, all things are not equal for us any more than they were or are for the Jew. Their clanliness is responsible for the place they hold today for the Jew. Their clanliness can do nothing wiser than to emulate the Jew. We need and must have one own Race in every department of public service, trusting the other fellow, to look out for our welfare, in the vernacular of the street, "nicht got him." A Played Out Game IN FOOL SONE OF THE PEOPLE all of the time, the time, but not all the people all the time." No, of politicians ride into office on the back of the Governor timely romarks, speaking of the defeat of Bleaen and of the invasion of Ireland, and opposed the nation's war on kaiserism. But Bleaen had of prosecuting a home war of their own against the They suffered from 'nephrophobia' in its most vivid best heit to spread the disease. For a long time it was, though Bleaen, to be sure, was forehanded enoughency from the penitentiary by pardoning all the good reason to hope that the defeat of these demagogues different issue, will end the systematic exploitation of the poor by the oppressed mann and Mississippi, as in Russia, those who perpetrated kaiserism are champions of a class war at homeide against the bourgeois and Yardman. Blease and gentiment against us are birds of a feather, and carers of these states are to be congratulated for buleep in the mire, where they so justly belong. "TOU CAN FOOL SOME OF THE PEOPLE all of the time, all of the people some of the time, but not all the people all the time". No longer will the nation be able to ignore the people of South Carolina and Vardaman of Mississippi for national office. They were beaten because they opposed the nation's war on kaiserism. But Blease and Vardaman were not the only people who suffered fellow citizens. They suffered from nephroblastosis in its most violent form and they did their best to spread the disease. For a long time it was their sole title to support, though Blease, to be sure, was forehanded enough to secure another constituency from the penitentiary by pardoning all the convicts there. There is good reason to hope that the defeat of these demagogues, though partially on a different issue, will end the systematic exploitation of race animosity in the United States, not noting that in South Carolina and Mississippi, as in Russia, those who oppose liberation against kaiserism are champions of a class war at home. Trotzky leading a crusade against the bourgeois and Vardaman, Blease & Co. trying to overthrow a boycott against the bourgeois and carrion birds at that. The men who are to be congratulated by burying these political bids deep in the mire, where they so justly belong.

This information but firmly to John Ward of Goldsboro, N.C., who goes in the Ninth and Tenth United States cavalry there is busy with war work. The gentleman in a man and married three times. His first-wife bore him a time twice, one at a time once. His second wife, be at one time once and five one at a time; the last time. If anyone in the congregation can beat that p IT TAKES A GREAT MANY PEOPLE to keep an army going, but even Col. Roosevelt doesn't expect one family to do it all. This information should be waffled gently but firmly to John Waner of Goldsboro, N. C., who has thirteen children. He is a man of great courage and seventeen daughters are busy with war work. The gentleman in question was born in 1886 and married three times. His first wife bore him fifteen children, four at one time twice, one at one time once. His second wife, two at one time, three at one time once and five one at a time; the last bore him at a time. Anyone in the congregation can beat that please stand AMERICA For more than four hundred years, America has meant merely the name of the country, and particularly that part known as the war, this country passed into political significance as an independent state; in the Civil War this country established and confirmed its independence in war in which we are now engaged with this country has entered upon the task of "making the world safe for democracy." The whole-hearted, spontaneous and passionate people to this call reveals the common understanding of what "America" means; the adjective "American" here means we have a glorious meaning, definitely understood and approved the world over. Democracy means the people, the country, and the purpose of the people; it means that the people are the means that the people are to have the blessings of freedom, of self-government, and the enjoyment of the fullest enjoyment of life. America is not satisfied with these things for herself alone; it wants all the peoples of the earth to have them; democracy can not be satisfied when men come under its benign protection. Race prejudice, particularly that against men because of color, is one of the clobbers who obscures his own arm. Araby must lift this cloud. The Negro is part of the people; he is part of native born America; he knows no other matter; he has given of service, of property and of blood to establish and maintain it; no good reason exists for him to discriminate in this democratic land against him. America having placed high before the world her ideal, he has lifted up to her ideal and let all men be drawn with her to this upper level.

W. ALLISON SweenEY, care the Chicago Defender, Chicago, Ill. My Dear Mr. Sweeney: NEVER in my experience have I seen justice and the proper arraignment meted out to an enemy of the Race such as YOUR MAGNIFICENT AND OVERWHELMING EDITORIAL IN THE LAST ISSUE OF The Defender relative to Vardaman. Good, old man—you're THE UNCROWNED KING OF THE EDITORIAL WRITERS OF THIS MUCH ABUSED RACE OF OURS, and I am for you, ANY time— ANY place—ANY where, and under ANY circumstances. NELSON C. CREWS, Editor Kansas City Sun St. Louis, Mo. Sept. 7, 1918. Dear Editor: What manner of man is this FEARLESS WRITER W. ALLISON SWEENEY? His pen is mighter THAN A SWORD, SWORDS, YEA; TEN THOUSAND NOTHING has ever been fashioned to it a man so neat as "What Struck OLD Vardaman?" Words fall to express my appreciation of him. Every self-respecting Negro ought well be PROUD to be a mirror of more mighty pen is a mirror of curse; more expressors of the already oppressed. May God forever bless that CHERIANT OF MY RACE. I am yours respectfully, GEORGE B. M'INTYRE. Mr. R. S. Abbott, Chicago, M.D. Shr: Your editorial in last week's issue of *THE DEFENDER* concerning the 14th Amendment is highlighted in CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES, under the caption, "JIMCROW-1BM MUST GO." was a surprized item. It was very strong and right to the point. While our friend DU BOIS seems to be there, we are a few BLACK MEN who fuse to even go to bed until they have accomplished a decently finished job. I refuse to concede the point that we must be a black man in EUROPE before we, the BLACK PEOPLE, can get what is due us over here. I refuse to make the rights and justice of AMERICA, subject to the outcome of conditions in EUROPE. You cannot tell me that it is necessary for AMERICA to go 3,000 or 4,000 miles to fight in order that the 14th and 15th amendments of the CONSTITUTION OF THE UNITED STATES of AMERICA be conceded to the letter for our benefit. If it be true, then, the great battles of WWII were all in vain. The taking of RICHMAN was as far as the BLACK MAN was concerned. SHERMAN'S MARCH TO whatever, if we must be meaning for us all armed arches get to BERLIN before we can get what was promised us a generality. If that be the "SLOGAN" and the allied army never reached BERLIN, then it would be useless for us to ever have power and the force of the BLACK PEOPLE has increased 400 per cent. Now are we going to leave BERLIN as wide as it becomes useless? G. A. MILLER, New York City. Letter Has Right Ring Letter Has Right Ring The following is the kind of letter to write to get results: American Propaganda Aug. 26, 1918. From Col. F. B. Powell to Manager of Fair. Subject: Insulting remarks. Having purchased a can for garbage in your store, August 22d, same sent to C. O. D., was delivered August 23d to C. O. D., 1685 South Wabash avenue. The young man asked why he did not deliver the can in the rear, and he, thinking the party insulted the same was of the Caucasian race, made the following remarks: COL. L. B. POWELL Asst. Adjutant General It requires an analytical mind, and an upright heart and a backbone of steel to open attack upon political machines, church leaders and availous carpet-knitting, and to uphold honesty and their lack of knowledge of economics, sociology and political science renders them unit for leaders. I agree with you that we need a real understanding of the conflicts and aggressively in the face and commandeer us out of this chaotic cesspool of confusion into which these misleaders have brought us. I am an avid reader of the literature and I have no hesitancy in saying that no writer of this decade, even the celebrated Bernard Shaw, Herbert Kaufman or the versatile Dr. Frank K. Kline, has written so many phases, with the mastery that you did the aforementioned. For humanity's sake keep the good work going, respectfully, VAIL C. LINTON. Wilson to Austria: No The American reply to the Austrian parley parlay was made in a statement by Secretary of State Lansing: "I am authorized by the state that the following will be in this government to the Austro-Hungarian note proposing an unofficial conference of bolliger- America's Reply "The government of the United States feels that there is only one reply which it would accept, and that of the imperial Austrian Hungarian government. It has repeatedly and with entire candor stated the terms upon which the United States would consider a can and will entertain no proposal for a conference upon a matter concerning the position and purpose of the United States." The United States thus makes known its determination to assist the defense in refuse any compromise whatsoever until the palace at Berlin meets with the official advice conference with his official advice counsel. Wilson decided upon this course and forwarded the reply to Austro-Hungarian alliance. Make Your Restaurant a Decent Place to Eat In The restaurant situation has become so complexed on the South Side, as a few of the restaurants that there is no ground for criticism of those who eat in places operated by a decent and respectable basis by those who eat in restaurants or by our people are fast becoming meccas for dirt and filth, to say less. The term restaurant as appalled by the way it is operated and there on various streets has been notoriously abused, and has disintegra- tion what is commonly known in lumber yards and levee districts as "Eat Houses." Waitress Sarcastic Those places that make pretentions to respectability have an eye singular to respectability. They are absolutely blind as to the manner of service and food the waitresses give to apologize to them. It almost necessary to waitresses for asking them for a second glass of water or a napkin. The need for sarcastic treatment for the desirous home life of the "lady waitress." Yet these people who permit such slack behavior are not well kept criticism because members of their race seek a more pleasant environment, well kept surrounding to spend their money. Where does the blame lie? Some Unhealthy Restaurants The argument has been offered by several "Eat House" proprietors that our race is fond of frequenting places where these diseases are employed. This misstatement requires any defense, but rather a review of the condition existing in the Eat Houses throughout the city concerned by Indictment One: The fifth conditions existing by their refusal to do so, doors and windows properly too often to diseases communicated by flies and other insects that are attracted by the smell of meat and the intense heat of the kitchen. Indictment Two: Often the chefs in these "Eat Houses" are not only inexperienced cooks, but are untidy and cluttered in the handling of food. This is why they are cleanliness of their aprons and jackets is important to wine their faces upon their aprons. This leads the customer to question the cleanliness of their other wearing aprons and manner in which they regard sanitation. Indictment Three: The attitude of the proprietors when appealed to by the customers to correct blunders and by waitresses and cooks in the proprietors' vice of food seem to be regarded as an attack upon the servant and the customer gets the impression that he and his money are secondary consideration and food is often sufficient ground cause a customer to be insulted by the proprietors. This is not as it should be. Care should be taken in dealing with customers spending their hard earned money with them. The guest is not responsible for the bad night the waitress has had in some all night cabaret. BEHAVIOR, NOT COLOR, SHOULD GOVERN No Cases Are Diagnosed and No Prescriptions Given in These Weekly Articles "There Goes Roscoe Simmons" The People Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 13.—That the real orator holds a greater mastery over the imagination of mankind than any other approach to reason and to passion is the inspiration of his monuments electrified the Hellenic cities, Cleoero held Rome in, the sound of his voices made the dry bones of Christendom rattle in his passionate arrangement of the slave power and pathetic appeals for justice to the slave. He is like a king who does not made, and they are rare in the life of mankind, from Jesus Christ, who is Booker T. Washington, who spoke to them not without a moral. All this being true, it is a safe conclusion that those people are poor indeed who have no own life, then by the magic of his power to higher and better things in their own life. For some months now the people of the East have read with wonder and pleasure the reports of the oratorial achievements of Roscoe Conkling Simmons in the great west and south country; of his persuasive eloquence, his persuasive rhetoric, his persuasive courage in parliable situations where he has "rushed in where almost cannot tread" in picturing in scintillating and scathing words the wrongs the Afro-American people have suffered and are suffering through the merciless mankind, and the wrongs the stars that stay together in the morning frown upon them and the dread God Jove rebuke them in the young champion out of the ooze of the Mississippi valley when he pleads the causes of his own! It has been so in every age when there were wrongs to be righted and those who struggle out of the darkness into the light needed the inspiration of a great hope. "Who is this young Roscoe Simmons?" is asked oftener by thoughtful people who has asked in any other living Afro-American. Who is he? Of all of us, as a lad, "lean and hungry of look," as Shakespeare would phrase it, with nothing of promise in him visible to the keenest witted. That is the way God works. He takes the stone the builders rejected and makes it the head of the corner, from the builders scratch their wise heads, exclaiming, "Who would have thought it?" All these things passed through my mind as the vast audience at one of the sessions of the National Business League broke into loud and long applause when Roscoe Simmons' name was called. It was a tribute of respect and admiration which any man might be proud of. And as he walked the streets of his city, he was greeted by people who whispered what it was yet in the seed, and his close friend, R. R. Church of Memphis, the curious crowds would turn at the off-repeated elaculation: VENEREAL PLAGUE—183,000 CASES AMONG OUR YOUNG MEN IN THE ARMY—WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT? Venereal Disease The greatest threatening menace to the health, strength and endurance of the young manhood of today is venereal disease. What are the Venereal diseases? Venereal disease is divided into three great classes, viz.: Geno- theresis in vulvus verumacral (clap). Syphilis, or lues, or as it is often called "pox," instead of smallpox, or the black plague. Genea is in third, and is divided into the hard and the soft, hard chancro in the initial. venereal diseases? Venereal diseases are divided into three great classes: venereal rhea, in vulgar vernacular (clap). Syphilis, or lues, or as often called "the pox" instead of smallpox, or the black plague, or the chancera, both localized in third, and is divided into the hard and the soft, the charcoal in the charcoalion, or sore of hutio, or syphilic infection. The soft cannhea, or what is the charcoal, is a dirty, local venereal area, locally, may be permanently cured in a very short time; on the other hand, the hard or syphilic charcoal must be treated both localized and over a considerable period of time. Either one of these charcans are of serious nature and are to be dealt with intimately and not trivially as so many people are prepared with the various venereal infections. The Prevalence of the Disease Have you ever stopped to consider and ponder over the matter that there are today 138,000 cases of venereal disease is prevalent among the young and best manhood of this nation, of both black and white—what that these men have done before being inducted into the service, and that the majority have just enlisted into manhood (21 to years of age), into responsibilities of married life, of home, state and national affairs? What must be the condition of the other vast majority of these men have not been examined, selected and put under rigid observation? Who are the future husbands and father of these men? Are there 138,000 cases among the soldiers? There must be many more cases among the civilian population. We must wake up and face this proposition with an adamant determination that the people about the seriousness of this awful tragedy and calamity that follows venereal infection—and the negro proper treatment of venereal diseases. Venereal Diseases Among Negroes It has been proven, and shown beyond a shadow of doubt, with stuhlbarn disputable facts, that the venereal disease is very prevalent among all nigricious people, but at this particular time, our recent visits and observations make us most concerned about the prevalence of venereal disease among the Negro people. The Race has been too prone to make excuses, to shift responsibilities of affairs, to blame of this avilful state of affairs, to blame of others, instead of facing the facts, closing the ranks and making a strenuous effort to prevent and to cure this "There Goes Rosie" By T. THOMAS S. Founder of the New Atlantic City, N. J., Sept. 13.—That the over the imagination of mankind than any passion is as true today as when Demosthie枕边罗马 has now and of his dry bones of Christendom rattle in his power and pathetic appeals for justice to our Orators, like poets, are born, not made mankind, of Christ, who spoke to Booker T. Washington, who spoke to true, it is a safe conclusion that those perator to lead them by the magic of his pot, their own life and in the life of mankind. The pleasure of the reports of the oratorical admonies in the great west and south country abundant crudition, of his passionate loyal courage in parous situations where he has read the Bible, of his American people have suffered and are such chinations of corrupt laws and vicious public together in the morning frown upon them. Love reduces them in the young chapel valley when he pleads the causes of his own. It has been so in every age when the those who struggle out of the darkness into a great hope. Who is this young Roscoe Simmons people in the East than is asked of any other? Who is he? One of him. He used to be "jean and look of look," as Shakespeare wrote. He takes the stone the builders rejected and the master builders scratch their wise had thought it? These things passed through my mans session of the National Business League when Roscoe Simmons' name was called. I ration which any man might be proud of this summer resort, in company with the wry yet in the seed, and his close friend. "THERE GOES ROSCOE SIMMONS!" Negro then at any other time. At the beginning of the war several hundred educated Colored men at Fort Des Moines were preparing themselves to fight young men were a little disposed to pose. But this spirit did not lead them to interfere with anybody else and they did not perform any duty on their own account. A large number of them were duly graduated and commissioned. From the battlefields they did not perform any duty. They stood the test of courage and we must give them credit for it. We must be a question of nativity, but one of manhood. It has been said that the Negro does not always know his place, and he can say of many thousands white people an ambition should be to have every man do his best. By doing his best we mean that he and an audience have some of his money, and he should have rights of others in every walk and situation and in every occupation. This would not require the races to blend in society, except as they might wish it. At any rate, no men like George Woodson should be snubbed anywhere. Mr. Woodson is not the man to bring a lawsuit or to test the constitution. He is not the man to sense the people—(Des Moines Capital, Aug. 24.) awful plague. Venereal infection is far too common and too lightly considered amongst the vast majority of the memorial duties that the Colored people of this country have got to face, to shoulder and perform. It is no use in saying, the reason there is so much venereal disease amongst you is due to Race prejudice or to racial aggression." It is a vice prejudice or segregation in the way we make any sensible boy or man expose himself to venereal infection, by promiscuous sexual congress; and if it is not to submit yourself to the best medical service available. You should never resort to home remedies, thinking that venereal disease you have no more than a cold, and that the outward sign disappears you are cured. Many cases of gonorrhea are caused by you because you have not sufficient force and activity to abstain from further indulgence and follow out a systematic, thorough course of treatment over a period of time. A medical service. You want something that is short, quick in drying up the discharge, but never think that you are going to discharge is dry, that you are going to danger in spreading the infection. . Remember, that many a young man has fooled himself in the belief that he can charge—he marries and in a few months his beautiful, innocent, trusting wife comes down with (for politically motivated girls) feelings and to regard the good of the family) what some doctors has been foolish enough to call "Honeymoon." When the real facts are known, this hysteria the young bride is found to be due to that old, neglected, improperly treated woman, cursed case of genorrhea of your young wife. You have caused her much suffering—impaired her health temporarily and perhaps permanently caused her to suffer much pain. You have poor innocent thing, called it "female weakness." She may have to resort to treatment or various kinds for relief of her pain. There have her most important reproductive organs removed, thinking it is due to "Honeymoon appendicitis" or "female genorrhea." You yourself are responsible for this and suffering, removal or mutilation of these important organs. Do you not believe that you will agree with us that it is your duty, and that that of every bridegroom, since we know that venerable disease is so prevalent, to present a clean bill of health, showing that the groom comes to the marriage altar free from the taint of venereal disease and the consequent bride client that meets him at the altar. Educational The object of these articles is in no way to shock or to horrify, not even to arouse any repugnance of feeling in them, but to educate and to rationalize. We believe that the only way, the best way, to prevent venereal disease and to cure venereal disease must be through the education of the individuals who have been exposed to our trouble, that a great deal of venereal infection of today is due to ignorance on the part of the individual, that they have been thrown upon the seriousness of this disease, both present and remote, that much good will accrue therefrom. To that end, we must be strong, clean, healthy men, that venereal disease tends to underline ones health. In fact it is a great burden and headscarper, it lessens ones endurance and burden him a burden upon the community. The Meaning of Success To be successful is not merely to the right money. There are many men who have good goods and yet are more successful than some others who have only hoarded some of their wealth or welfare of the community in which they live—Home and Progress.
