Emmett J. Scott, special assistant to the secretary of war, issued the order that no college or university had been given the right or instructed to discriminate against students the students are from matriculate the students are from matriculate In view of the fact that an order was issued reading, "that no color line must be drawn in inducting men into section A," Colored men eligible for induction will be inducted at institutions they attend and will not be required to attend and will not be inducted "tions," the Oberlin College authorities state that they are abiding by the rule established by Francis M. Root (white), who has been placed in charge of the Ohio district of the S. A. T. C. Mr. Root when interviewed was firm to stand to reject all students of color from matriculate sections to the Oberlin College officials must be compiled with to the letter. Ridicule Official Order Following the publication of the telegram sent to the various institutions that were discriminating by Hon. Emmett J. Scott, which read: "The War Department has not issued any instruction from joining student army training corps at Ohio State University or any other institution. Any student, mentally and physically qualified and accepted by the school officials is eligible forance, into any student army of organization at Ohio State University, along with the Oberlin people, ridiculed the telegram and in defense of his stand Capt. Francis Root issued the following explanation: "H. S. A. T. Unit, Oberlin College. The student in charge of investigation on Nonadmittance of Negro Students in Ohio Universities—Dear Sirs: In the absence of definite orders from Washington addressed to myself, I can take no official notice of any communication addressed to any other commanding officer of the SQ.

"My own instructions relative to Negro students so far are as follows: "On the visit to this school by the inspecting officer under orders of the Utica Institute Plant Utica, Miss, Nov. 1—Fire destroyed the power plant of Utica, Normal and Industrial Institute.

War Department's Telegram "Later I received a telegram from the committee, which read in part as follows: 'Colored men eligible for induction will be inducted at institutions which they attend and will not be required to transfer to other institutions. Use these in segregation in providing mess and quarters for colored men and arranging such segregation as may be necessary.' 'Neither of these instructions seems to me to warrant my changing my previous status. I have better satisfied themselves and will be enabled to secure more satisfactory accommodations and treatment at schools where there are more than a dozen so Negro students in the institution.' Would Separate Students "In this view no discrimination against.Negro students is intended. It is simply carrying out the general policy of the army, that Negro and white students both better satisfied if they are not made to study at Negro students had applied for admission to this institution I should have certainly advocated the formation of a Negro company, messed and quartered by the head of should be complied with my duty to make sure by inspection that the Negro students were treated in exactly the same manner as the white students in every respect."

A, Mrs. Hattie Oldham and Mrs. Lieut. began active service, meeting trains, parade and were in the "Smile Movie" "KNOCKING AT THE CLOSED GATES" (From the Daily Index-Republican, Bellofontaine, Ohio) It was just five minutes of 4 o'clock when Colonel Roscoe Simmons began his silver-tongued address, and he talked until 5:30, holding his audience spell-bound in admiration. He moved to the progressive movement of the war and the openness of the colored people. He emphasized the fact that after the colored people perform their duty to assist the white people to establish democracy in that the colored people should return home and perform the same duty in assisting the white people to establish democracy for the colored people in America. In this connection, the speaker also stated that the white man need not be afraid that the colored man will do his duty, for the colored man was the first to set foot on French soil. It may be said that Colonel Simmons' address was full of jewels of thought and full of patriotism that thrilled. He is an orator in a class by himself. He handed out to his audience what is known as 'good for thought', and it was done up in many packages. His word-pictures are original and bespeak an unusual and wonderful individuality. Colonel Simmons is a nephew of Billy and Winston. Some of the paragraphs from his speech follow: Simmons Paragraphs. "We are living in a great time, the greatest age. Would not live in any other and of course could not. This, the greatest war and God's war, is the coming war. East, west north and south are coming together as one union. We have lost nothing in Africa except memory 300 years ago. We have lost the past and no fears for the future. "Africa will be molded 300 years before we go back. I am satisfied that I am an American." "Proud to belong to a race whose future is before us and not behold us.

LATEST NEWS EXTRA If You See It in The Defender It's So Temporary Freedom Given Pawnbroker in Judge Mahoney's Court Soldiers Unmercifully Clubbed by Southerners at Hospital SATURDAY O MURDE Temporary Fr Pawnbroke Mahoney The celebrated Eli Nierman case. pawnbroker, 3026 State street, involving the death of Baby Alberta McWilliams, came to an abrupt end in Judge Mahoney's court Tuesday morning. This case attracted considerable attention and was considered by a coroner's jury for nigh on to six weeks, at the conclusion of which they recommended that all evidence, files and papers having to do with the alleged poisoning WE RECOMMEND THESE The Defender feels justified by the previous record and public standing of the men in question to ask its many readers to support the candidacy of the men herein mentioned in the coming election. The Republican ticket: Congressman-elect N. E. Mason, candidate for congressman-at-large, for re-election from the state of Illinois, and Congressman Martin H. Madden, of the First congressional leader, who was career in public life especially as it affects ourople justifies our unstinted support in the coming election. We further request the support of the voters of Cook county in behalf of the Governor, candidate for membership on the board of the Republican Charles Jarrett and W. H. Reed, candidates for members of the board of review. As public officials on the Republican ticket, these men are worthy of our confidence and support. We and by their records that Judge John A. Mahoney, Democratic candidate for re-election, and Judge Barrasa, Republican candidate, are worthy and deserving of our support. We desire the support of our voters for William Karr Steele and J. Graydon, both Republican candidates for municipal court judge, both of whom represent the highest ideals of public efficiency. Charles A. Griffin and Col. James H. Johnson, county commissioners, J. Warren Douglas, Hon. Adelbert H. Roberts and Editor S. B. Turner for members of the lilith legislature. Above all, vote these candidates are true and tried Republican and represent the best for the office they seek. Vote for Emmett Whealam for county commissioner; he is on the democratic ticket, and is a man you can vote for and be proud to know you like. He defends the Constitution. The Defender further desires to ask the support of its many readers for Michael F. Sullivan, candidate for chief justice of the municipal court. He is a man of highest integrity and knows no man by their racial or religious identifications. His attitude on public questions having to do with our group of people shows him to be beyond the suitability of which so often characterize the life of public officials. A vote for him will be a step in the right direction. Needham Roberts of 15th Regt. Back in New York New York, N.Y. — Needham Roberts, then the 15th conqueror of 20 Germans, appeared at the Lafayette theater last Tuesday night during the Elks' celebration at that playhouse. Counselor J. Frank introduced Roberts to the large audience. Roberts was in perfect health. Andrew Bishop of the Chicago Lafayette Stock Players appeared to pay a visit to the show. Roberts was in the show. Pully 3,000 people from Trenton, N. J. were present. Roberts said in his speech that Johnson, his partner, who aided him in bagging 20 Geraniums went back to the trenches a month back and is still on the firing line in France. SALOON FIGHT ENDS WHEN MAN IS KILLED Mound City, ill., Nov. 1. A quarrel that resulted in the death of John Simpson (white) of Metropolis and the severe wounding of Harshel Henderson occurred in the saloon of Harry Handley. Simpson began using his knife freely on Henderson's abdomen, and when in close quarters Henderson fired three shots in rapid succession. Simpson fell to the floor dead. It is doubtful as to whether Henderson will recover. Soldiers Unmercied by Southern New York, Nov. 1- Privates Ormond Jackson and Robert A. Johns, both members of the sanitary detachment, Minneola base hospital, went to Urban League offices, 2303 Seventh avenue, on Oct. 19, in an endeavor to have some one look into the mistreatment of our soldiers at the hospital. They stated that shortly before their coming to report the matter Private Charles Parker, who was recently transferred from the 65th Depot, beaten up from unmercifully beaten up by white privates from the South because he would not give his place during mess time to some white soldiers who came after him and would not get in at the end of the line for mess. He was allowed that for the 65th Depot, beaten up that an immediate operation was necessary, and that he will lose the sight of one eye, since he was attacked with the white soldiers' knives WOUNDED SOLDIERS BACK A LARGE NEW YORK FIRM DOING TIONS OPEN FOR 100 WOUNDED OF THE MATRICE OF THEIR WOUNDED FOR FULL PARTICULARS CA J.

As to what disposition was made of the recommendation of the coroner's jury available information cannot be obtained. Mysterious influences controlled by hidden hands seem to have worked with force and effect upon the proceedings. Attorney D. L. Barnard, the former head of the deceased before Judge Mahoney, sitting in the Municipal court, moved the court that the proceedings against Eli Nierman be dismissed and gave as his reason that his witness was of unsound mind, thus rendering any testimony upon her part invalid. Girl's Mind Wanders Thus the curtain is rung down on a case in which the reputation of a reputable citizen has been attacked and the death of a child still unexplained. The officers who were assigned to the case failed lamentably in their efforts to secure such evidence as would stand to test in court. The attitude of the girl is not clear. The state that Nierman was the father of the child and on another would say that he was not, made her value as a competent witness useless. Attorney Burnett found himself in a very awkward predicament and was no doubt justified in moving the court to quiet the girl. Should the girl's mind return in its natural state, the proceedings will be re-opened. C. M. E. Church Buys $100,000 Building Chicago is truly a city of churches, and magnificent churches at that.

Nothing is more important in the present than breaking our political chains. Second in importance is standing by and with those who give a hand when it takes a man to give that hand. All of the above candidates believe in a Republican Party built on character and loyalty, not on color and caste. To vote for them is to vote for both friends and Republicans. To refuse them support is to stand in the light, and make men wonder if we would be free. Particularly am I interested in the candidacy of J. Will Taylor for Congress from the Second District. In this connection I want to say that I know something of political leaders in Tennessee, their habits of thought and their activities. Closely have I examined them, especially as they speak or act when the legal or political rights of our people come before them. There is a place to test them. As a man and as a Republican, in private speech or public action, as a leader of the Republican party in the state or as a private citizen, Mr. J. Will Taylor has demonstrated that the qualities of manhood in him are essential to his virtues. His foes be silenced by his character. He is no hypocrite, but judge him upon the evidence, and mine is no quick judgment. Colored Republicans have no stancher friend in party councils. I offer no apology for wishing that every Colored man in the state will vote for the above named candidates on Nov. 5th next. Nothing do I seek in the circumstances, other that my men will "Win the War Quick" to an "Unconditional Surrender" and fly the colors of the Republican party! Respectfully. Lansing, Mich.

Old Monster Rheumatism, with your aches, pains, shooting pains, back aches, impure blood, you have been conquered by the famous Prescription C-2223 This prescription has brought joy and happiness to thousands of sufferers who had almost given up in despair after doctors and patent medicines had failed to give relief. We urge all readers to give Prescription C-2223 a trial by sending 75c to C-2223 Laboratories, Dept. A, Memphis, Tenn., for a physician's large bottle. Take as directed on the label. It would cost you a large sum to consult a specialist on Rheumatism or Blood Poison, but you can get his prescription at little cost, so why not try it? C-2223 is different from anything else. So great has been the demand that many prescription druggists have C-2223 in stock. If you have Rheumatism in any form, with those terrible, agonizing, shooting pains, aching bones or joints, Pains in the Head, Swollen Joints or Risings, Blood Poison with Itching Skin, Eczema, Old Sores, Pimples, Sore Patches in Your Mouth, Hair Falling Out in Patches, then take Prescription C-2223. It is the very medicine your system needs. C-2223 is a godsend, especially if other remedies or doctors have failed you. C-2223 has cured hundreds of cases, especially the old, stubborn kind. It sends a flood of pure, rich blood to the skin surface, healing all sores and stopping all pains and aches. Try it yourself. C-2223 not only purifies the blood, but drains out of your system all the poisons, humors and uric acids that cause the awful pains and sores, also stops that burning aching of the skin, giving anyone a smooth, healthy skin as well as pure, rich blood, stopping all the aches and pains.

For these reasons I can earnestly sympathize with every effort put forth by the clerics, without regard to creed or previous condition, to improve and better their situation in life, socially, morally, politically, and economically, thereby demonstrating that is needed is the open road of Opportunity to show that they are worthy of the respect and confidence of those whom they live and work. In Johnson's recognition which I have given our group in my administration of the election office, I have this to say: When I assumed control of this office there was a regular clerk in a strictly confidential capacity. He had been so employed for twenty years, soon recognized by both myself and Dennis J.

Quinasoap is made from coconut oil, an oil principally coconut oil, and is a rough cleanser. Quinasoap lathers very freely. It leaves the hair soft and fluffy and imparts a refreshing feeling to the scalp unequaled by any other shampoo. Do not accept any substitute, but insist on getting Seeby's Quinade and Seeby's Quinassoap, asking for them by the full name. Price is 22 cents each.

W w Yorkers A When the Sta 15th N. Y. By William White New York, Nov. 1.—Harlem did herself proud Friday night when Governor Charles S. Whitman paid a visit to the most loyal of his supporters. What Governor Whitman says always carries weight, because behind his burning words are many shining deeds. More than any Governor the Empire State has over claimed, not excepting even the late lamented Frank Sweet Black, who recognized the citizenship of he Race. Many are they who believe that the shing Governor could have done it a more intelligent and intelligent presentation of the cause had been made before him. Generally as he did in these environs feels the salt on his tall away he files to the nearest roost. The great audience that niled Metropolitan Church came out not to see Governor Whitman, for he is ever in voice to their hearts' purpose to rally to his standard Tuesday and show him that gratitude still lives, that the Race is still loyal to the principles of the party, and that others may flee the bishop's arrest and ancestors, but the Race is "steadfast, immovable, abounding in faith." Scores the Enemy Governor Whitman was at his best and was not backward about everybody else's best, particularly if they came from 14th street. "What is the matter?" Mr. Wilson he declared. "Does the President turn over its affairs of New York to turn over its affairs to Tammany Hall because he has a bad bargain on his hands in the Congress? If he does, he will wake up Wednesday morning booking at a new office in New York cannot be camoufaged into that a vote for Woodrow Wilson is not a vote for Charley Murphy." The Governor had the figures on him and went on to show the great progress made in the affairs of state under the Republican administration. And the happy part of it is that the figures are thus far unrefuted. Praise for the 15th The Governor got on tiptoe and lifted everybody else that way when he Patriotic FOR THE THE CIRCLE FOR NEC Saturday Eve NEW YORK AND BROOKLYN NEWS turned to the mighty record of the 15th New York Regiment, making the Huns do the turkey-trot back towards "fair Bingen on the Rhine." That is by his regiment, and he is proud of it. He acted that way only when among the Huns, he would have some question about his sincerity. He up and down Manhattan and up and down the state talking about "my boys." The regiment was mustered in by a stroke of Whitman's pen. When they return from the battlefield, she calls the Governor, "all of glory will be held in the air," theirs today. And none will claim a laurel wreath by hands tenderer or fairer than that to be placed upon their brow." Others who spoke included Senator C. Calder, Hon. E. A. Johnson, Hon. F. Mitchell, secretary of state: Harold C. Mitchell and John A. Bolles, candidates for Congress, and John Clifford Hawkins. Hairdressera Head Business List Hairdressers Head Business List According to Oscar Benson, who recently took the census of business places in Harlem, there are 510 members of the Race conducting business places here. Hairdressers head business list, barbers shops are second, and real estate and insurance runs even with moving vans and express. Next comes restaurants, with grocers and underwear almost equal. Ice cream parlorers and saloons and pool rooms. Greeks still "shine" with their bootlash parlorers, notwithstanding the fact that there are about twelve members of the Race conducting such enterprises. No doubt the quota when the National Negro business directory publishes the full list of business places in the country. Soldier Athletes in "Mail" Headed with the caption, "Look Where the Color Line Is Drawn Over There," the New York Evening Mail last Tuesday carried a four-column picture of a group of our athletic soldier boys, who recently took part in a big athletic meet held in Hyde Park, London.

The deceased friends to pay their respects to the deceased, who was highly esteemed in this city. Military Investigator Visits City Capt. Towson S. Grasty, who formerly practiced law in San Francisco, Cal. with offices in the Claus Spreckles Building, arrived in the city Tuesday, Oct. 22, from Philadelphia, where he has been investigating the social conditions of our soldiers when on furough, which also accounts for his visit here. Capt. Grasty, who is stationed at Camp Dix, is attached to the general headquarters staff under General Hugh L. Scott. He takes special interest in the welfare of our boys at the camp, in seeing that they get a square deal and understand that treated like Uncle Sam's men should be treated. One of the captain's recent achievements was securing the SIR seven commissioned officers, which occurred on the 11th of October, namely, First Lieuts. P. E. Taylor, Latson, Bluford and Bivins to captains, and Second Lieuts. Burrell, Murtaugh and Capps to first lieutenants. New York's Condition Favorable Upon being questioned by a Defender reporter regarding his opinion of the social conditions in Philadelphia complained there was a vast difference in New York's favor, although there was a large movement on in the Quaker City that was very gratifying. The captain further explained that he had more than one local canteens and was more than plausible to believe cellent work they are doing. It will be remembered that only a short while ago Race prejudice was raging at Camp Dix, especially in the big "Y" camp, where made segregation. It was at this stage General Scott recommended Grassy be promoted from first lieutenant to captain as a reward for his diplomacy and democratic principles displayed during the campaign when one occasion he averted a riot when some of the men were arrested for protesting against this discrimination, when through his explanation to General Grassy they were released. Other things of importance from the camp since Cap. Grassy was sent to this work is the sending of men each month to the various training camps to become officers. Every camp sends so many month, but no camp so long. General Grassy complained that our boys were selected to patrol the area occupied by bers of the Race. Another instance of importance which happened very recently was the displaying of a builtn (by order of General Scott) to become an officer who would call a nigger. This materialized from the court-martial of a white officer, who was found guilty of this offense, Capt. Grassy, who is a product of the officiating profession, Iowa, took advantage of the first opportunity offered our boys by Uncle Sam and was among the first 700 to emerge victorious from Des Moines. While in the national metropolis Capt. Grassy was in Newark, N. J., on route on the return trip to Camp Dix. Popular Song Writer in Town B. E.

WALKER SYSTEM OUR SUCCESS SUCCEEDS BE-CAUSE IT IS SUCCESSFUL TO YOU Buffalo Benefit at Century TheatreAttracts Thousands Will Marion Cook, Fifteenth Infantry Band, Nora Bayes and Others Score A few months ago the Buffaloes, the 39th Infantry, paid their fares from Camp Upton to New York and paraded up Fifth avenue, through Hartem, in order that New Yorkers might see them before they left for over there. New Yorkers did look at them, pronounced them 100 per cent soldiers, and placed in their hearts a never-to-forgotten fondness for the Buffaloes, the pride of Camp Upton's early draft army. Last Sunday at the Century theater, Central Park West and 63d street, New Yorkers again turned their fares; this time, however, not to see them, they had smokes, and plenty of them, when Christmas rolls around this year. It was at the big benefit performance for the Christmas smoke fund of the 65th Infantry, now doing their bit here, where judging from the immense songs in the theatre available in the huge palace theater was filled, and 900 persons were turned away at the door), the boys will have enough smokes to last them until, as Nora Bayes said, they reach theinden, when they will go down Borling's street to smoke a smoke. Promptly at $1.5 p. m. the curtain went up, disclosing the big band of the 15th Infantry, N. Y.N.G., in pretty formation on the stage.

Simpson, then artistically played several selections, classical and old-time airs, ending in one of the popular songs played in a popular manner. This brought thunderous applause, obliged to give an encore before it could retire from the stage. Col. Chas. W. Anderson, honorary colonel of the Buffaloes, next made a short address, after which several bills, all excellent, were presented. The highest priced vaudeville stars on the stage, appeared. Mack was at his best and pleased his audience immensely. More sterling bills came next until Nora Baye, that high class comedian, always interested in the affairs of the Race, was great, and brought rounds of applause with her "regretful blues." Most of the numbers were written by Race men and Miss Bayes announced that she would on any stage where singing some song written by one of our writers.

She was accompanied on the piano by Will Marion Cook, and during one of her exquisite songs she was delightfully accompanied by Felix Weir and Leonard Jeter, violin and cello.

After the Chel the boys taught the larger bands and the performance closed at 12 noon, only a five minutes' intermission with the act of the Exposition Four. Those Who Aided The field secretary of the Welfare League of the 367th Infantry, George W. Lattimore, who organized and generally directed this gentle affair, admittedly the biggest thing ever held by the Race in this city, deserves great credit for this affair. He was able assisted by Will Marion Cook, who and soul into making this benefit the most important was. Morris Gest, manager of the Century theater, very kindly donated the theater, and most of the artists appearing did likewise. It was said that at least 300 persons were turned away, unable to get into the theater, and the receipts were more than $2,000. Anita Bush's Midnight Gambol Amita Bussi Midnight Gambol Miss Anita Bush's Midnight Gambol, which takes place in Manhattan Gaspole last Friday evening in the lobby of Wood Canteen, Unit No. 14, was a great success. Many of the performers voluntarily appeared on the stage to make the evening an enjoyable one for the large crowd that assembled at the stage. The performers lent in jokes, dancing and singing. The canteen girls served as the line supper. The New Amsterdam Orchestra furnished the jazz music, placed in the center of the floor so as to give the sound of the sound of the sound of the sound abounds ends of the hall. The evening was pleasantly spent by a fair-sized crowd.

This is what she got rid of during the course of a little conversation with one of the performers with whom she was doing business a short time ago, and who is at present in Chicago. "The colored people of Harlem should be proud of the fact that I have given them a first-class theater in which to show what they are capable of. The person should be found catering to me instead of thinking that I should be catering to them. Here I have given up all my friends and former assists on account of his theater proposition, because I have gone into business in a section where the patrons are mostly "biggers," and as a consequence, I am slighted and looked down upon by all people. I am not a bigger, and just because I felt sorry for your people out here and opened this theater for them. They certainly had ought to appreciate it. Some ladies would long as they pose, but I don't care, long as they folks out here patronize me as they should." This is about as rotten a piece of gulf as ever came under the notice of the O. R. T. D. Man, and if ever there needed a fine lecturing, it is this Gothic town of coin. Can you imagine this sort of noise emanating from this sure-shot, nickle-grabber at a time like this? How long do you think this lady would last in business on the Stroll of Chinatown? How much of which she has adopted and has apparently been thriving upon in the big eastern town? Can you wonder at the fact that the people of Harlem were all primed to rock her business to sleep in recent rough house described in the columns of this paper a short time ago? Why don't Mrs. Downs shut up shop and beat it back to her "nigger" hating friends? 'our people would be better when she, without doubt; we can not say that she is not a lightened lady, be the Harlemites' loss, looking the matter up one side and down the other. While there may be many theater managers who harbor the same softness, we have never heard them expressing it to a member of the Race. While Mrs. Downs is qualified to enjoy all the protection that her husband has for her, we find it hard to understand how she has been her belch without at least having been told the difference between a package of cigarettes and a pair of overalls. It is a pity that Mrs. Downs hasn't applied to her husband, whose husband her mouthpiece; this would have jim-pants-kicking when circumstances tipped, as witness what happened when he cursed and called "nigger" at a perfectly respectable lady for the heinous defense of trying to sell fourth Liberty to the enemy of the frater. They ran him out of such they say that he has been conspicuously small around the joint ever since. This sure is a great world—full of fall guys—and some of them thrive on mistreatment. And come back for more mistreatment. And our folks are of the type whichever if the man in their eye, would take their coat sleek, wipe it out, while apologizing for not being twins, so they could buy two tickets instead of one, just to help them sing in their hours of sacrifice and disgrace. Mr. Downs also claims that Snyder, her master, will be a hobbit. We believe that—just like we believe that Kaiser Wilhelm is a Hottentot. ARKANSAS Helena. Ark.

When the long arm of the United States Department of Justice recently reached across the Atlantic and handed to the French government documents involving Joseph Caillaux and Bolo Pasha in a treasonable conspiracy to betray the French republic to the Kaiser, it brought to an end one of most sinister careers in modern history. Ex-Premier Joseph Caillaux, the "evil genius of France," and his beautiful, ambitious wife have been the center of more sensational stories in the public press than any other pair in history. Now the dramatic events of his life have been recorded on the screen by William Joy, who will be shown at the States Theater on Saturday and Sunday, of this week. The action goes back to the very time when Henriette Renouard, an ambitious middle class French girl, determines to marry a man who will be a great friend. Leo Claretie, a visionary and a dreamer, only to find, years later, that he is a failure. Then comes her intrigue with Joseph Caillaux, followed by a double divorce, which results in their marriage. He hastens Jason Calmette, editor of the Paris magazine, to shatter her dreams by exposing dishonorable acts of her husband, she adds murder to her infamies by entering his office and shooting him down and killing blood. Then follow her trial and acquittal. But it is only when the United States Government involves Caillaux and Holo Pasha in pro-German Propaganda that retribution comes. Holo is shot by a firing squad. Caillaux is imprisoned on charge of reason, and the Paris mob long escaped them, a adventurer, who long escaped them. "The Calllaux Case" has been staged by Richard Stanton with an all-star cast. Its sets are exact replicas of the original scenes in Paris. Its fascinating record of love, hate, jealousy, ambition and triloratus machinations comprises the most sensational drama of real people ever shown on the film.

"At Gettysburg I won this here Great big one—made of brass— I seized a rebel's musket and I run him out of gas. It was an awful battle, that, And an awful sight to see.

Old General Lee just sent for Grant And closel the dog-gone war." "THE INNER MAN" The Chicago Tribune had this to say of the play which will be presented by the Lafayette Players here next week. It is here published just to the patrons of the Avenue an insight has to be great play "The Inner Man really is" "The Inner Man" at Garrick's a real Novelity-The well-known jaded theater-goer was treated to a real novelty last night, when Wilton Lackaye opened his sensor at the Garrick Theater in what the program called a "society play." The novelty was twofold. In the first place there was a cleverly conceived prologue which took the form of a meeting of the Society for the Reformation of "criminals" actually supposed to be held in the theater. Secondly, the play had a moral. In the neat little speech at the end of the second act Mr. Lackaye said that the actor could do well if he had a good play, but the moral that the author intended was even plainer than that. Mr. Lackaye was cast as a brutal criminal who, in addition to having committed nearly every crime in the decadogue, had deserted his wife and his son, Werrington, a wealthy philanthropist, waged ten thousand dollars that he can reform this shocking person within a year. The wager is undertaken as the result of a theory that confirmed criminals are beyond redemption, which is supported by the SPLENDID ILLUSION- The meeting, by the way, was admirably done and was punctuated by frequent applause. The speakers arose from various parts of the theater, including one of the boxes, and succeeded in curing the illusion that a gathering of the scion in question was actually in progress. Mr. Werrington and his wife appear at Dick Bolger's home (that is the criminal's name) and induce him to act as their agent in distributing $200- purposes, for reformation purposes. They annually pay a weekly salary of $50, and, to bind the bargain, hand him $500 on account. Gradually the environment in which he finds himself produces the inevitable result, but what that is had best be left for the audience to figure out, for here is a play that should not be missed.

Brown, better known as "Kid" Brown to members of the profession, will no doubt be shocked at the announcement of his death, which occurred early Wednesday morning, the direct cause being a massive attack of indigestion. Kid Brown had a long time, and a short time ago had to pass up a lot of booking for his act, which was known as Brown & Brown, and which was one of the few musical novelties working the smaller vaudeville left as advance manager for the Invinicible Concert Co. which is at present laying off at their headquarters at Kansas City Mo. The deceased had all his life and his business practically all his life and his business practically was somewhere in South Carolina, it is said, and he is survived by many relatives.

During the action of the story there is a battle with a gang of cattle thieves, several horseback chases, four or five hand encounters of the most desperate, a world of real gun-play, and finally a startling climax which not only places the daughter of his master in danger, but Lassiter a beautiful wife, and revenge upon the entire sect that was the cause of all his adventures.

MAKES A HIT A letter arrived at the Old Roll-T-2, Desk on Tuesday night, via special delivery; it came all the way from the classic city of Harrisburg, Pa., and brought prominent citizens and business men, Wm. Dockens, known as Bill-Dock to the initiated. Now Bill, in his letter, says that he was tickled almost to death to see that we had had another letter from Windshell Jackson and Tom and Tomto, and I should go over there and help those fellows surround the kaiser, as he thinks that between the three of us, Windshell, the Jap and myself, it would be like getting money from home in a letter. I agree with first part of the bills. I should part made me do a lot of thinking. The main one of these thoughts was: Who would be here to keep the home fires burning if I should leave? Deep thought, which is not to be denied. I had almost made up my mind to templet part made me this suggestion himself, but at the bottom part of the letter he draws attention to the fact that he has, besides a fine appetite, a wife and five little Bill-Docks, which of course lets him out. Therefore, Windshell and Tomato to be for them, which so far, they have proved abundantly able to do. MME. HALEY ROBERTS The famous evangelist of Chicago, Mme.

As Mrs. Moore started to leave the courtroom Frank Wheaton, her attorney, informed Magistrate Corrigan that he had just been informed by a lawyer that he onboarded her, and that "that was going to cut up Mrs. Moore with a riot as soon as she left the courtroom." This caused her arrest.

Atkinson (white) is said to be the purchaser of the New York Presbyterian church property at the northeast corner of Seventh avenue and 128th street, and not the Metrobank, 128th street, week. The Rev. J. F. Forbes, secretary of the Church Extension Committee of the New York Presbytery, says Mr. Atkinson is the real owner and that he understands the new owner's business purposes when building conditions are more favorable. Dr. Forbes said the Metropolitan Tabernacle, of which the Rev. Joseph Kemp is pastor, formerly had possession of the property under a lease, which carried an on-site option. The on-site option has been turned over to Mr. Atkinson. This will pass December 1. Nabs Alleged Milk Thief Edgar Pierce, 21, a porter living at 104 West 14th Street, was in the Heights Court Thursday, Oct. 24, accustomed to working at 47 cents from one of Borden's milk wagons. John Kelly (white), the driver, claimed he had been missing milk for some time and decided to set the morning in question. He said he had been taken to 490 Riverside drive shortly after 5 o'clock and then went into the vestibule of the house at that address and waited for developments. He claims he saw Pierce climb into the wagon, take two bottles of milk and start to run. Policeman George MacRow happened along at that moment and made the wagon stop. He was committed to jail in default of $500 to await the action of the grand jury.

Trotman had been asked to resign as chairman of the Big Sister club, affiliated with the organization known as the Big Brothers and Sisters' movement. We also stated that another version was that Mrs. Trotman had sent in her resignation, which was accepted. The information known Brooklyn lady, had been asked to resign was unintentional. We have been emphatically informed by both W. F. Trotman, husband of Mrs. Trotman, and Dr. George F. Miller that Mrs. Trotman's resignation from the board of the Big Sisters club, that is held with the Urban League, was wholly entirely entitled to胶 to publish the statements of Rev. Miller and Mr. Trotman in reference to the case. Apathetic Republicans Just before the nominating elections were held we announced that we intended to have our say in the coming elections. We felt then that our immense circulation in Greater New York demanded this. We said then that we would only publish with the Republican party, we would publish, but would not solicit, the advertising matter of any` party. We added that we would also print the legitimate news of any party, and extended a general invitation to all to attend our presidential convention respect. Notwithstanding this, not one line have we been asked to run for the Republican candidates. That which we have inserted has been secured by us through roundabout ways. We re-entered the race of our Republican candidates. Contrasted to this, we have the Democrats coming out with their annual pre-election newspaper. In it they take credit for almost everything under the sun. In the disgusting splurge, in an attempt to win how they can, vote the Democratic ticket. Sort of castor oil-like, we would say. Counselor R. L. Waring Defends Gaffney In the trial of Vincent Gaffney (white), the escaped murderer recaptured recently in New Jersey, Counselor R. L. Waring, at the request of Gaffney, was substituted for Franklin Groves, who was designated defender him or escaping the Tombs, by the court. Counselor Waring was the attorney who successfully defended John Callahan, also white, who was charged with aiding Gaffney in his sensational escape from the Tombs. Gaffney, however, was sent to state's prison to serve on his original sentence of freedom, the life for murder, without standing trial on the charge of escape. To a Defender reporter Waring, in speaking of his recent legal tilt with Judge Joseph F. Mulqueen in the General Sessions Court, said it was absurd to think that the judge had cited him for contempt in relations to words he had had with the counselor was pleading, because of his color. Waring informed the judge that he meant no offense, and it is likely the case will end there. Lieutenant Johnson Heads Cantecn Lieutenant Rosamond Johnson, director of the Music Settlement, has taken over the direction of the canteen for soldiers and sailors at 4 and 6 West 131st street. The canteen is located at the soldiers' residence of the Music Settlement and recreation center club rooms, which makes an ideal place for the men in service who are on a furlough to the city. The canteen is known officially as No. 5 of the Mayor's Committee of Women on National Defense, and has been in operation for the past month. Already from the nearby camps have visited the canteen, where they have been able to secure food at cost. Lieutenant Johnson has made a valuable addition to the canteen by arranging accommodation for one hundred men, who may remain at the recreation over night for the nominal fee of ten cents. To give the night best possible accommodation to make their stay comfortable and enjoyable, contributions are sought to continue the good work. Telephone Camouflage. And now comes the telephone company, joining with the Interborough in their false assertion that their service is crippled through lack of he'd. All of the telephone companies suffer great curtailment on their use of the telephone, because, as the company advertised, so many of the operators were ill with influenza. If the telephone company, however, would put our calls as operators (from which position they would have a big supply on hand to tide them over the present emergency). It is inconceivable that the New York Public Service Commission could have so patiently allowed the I. R. T. to operate, and it is equally inconceivable that they now let the public suffer in the use of the telephone. Mrs. Rose Wins Liberty Bond Mrs. Theresa L.

W. Holt, 405 Prairie avenue, Tuesday evening. The occasion is it possible for Mr. Cormick a man of choice to be Colored couple of the city who are active in civic and political life. Brief addresses were made by Honorable Charles Griffin, Col. James H. Johnson and Honorable Adelbert H. Roberts. At the request of the hostess Col. Wm. Randolph Cowan accepted the honor of presiding over the occasion, which was executed with befitting dignity. Mr. McCormick delivered a short and interesting discourse touching briefly upon the part played by his grandfather during the civil war, who he claims occupied a conspicuous place in the confidence of Lincoln. He reviewed his hopes and ambitions as a public servant and said that a larger and greater democracy would come to all the people as a result of the present world's struggle. He paid a high tribute to the French and English governments and said that during his visit in France the horrors committed by the people of his own country upon the southern Colored man made him on many occasions blush for shame. A number of people present expressed their reasons as to why they favored the nomination of Medill McCormick. Ex-Alderman DePriest probably politically in favor of the individual saying: "I shall exert every possible effort compatible with decency and respectability to enhance the candidacy of Mr. McCormick. I am not, however, going to support the entire ticket. Opinions Favor McCormick Dr. LeRoy Bundy: "Because Medill McCormick's record has proven him a strenuous advocate of Republican principle embodied in its platform real democracy." Dr. W. D. Cook, pastor of Bethel A. M. E. church said: "I am for Medill McCormick because I believe him to be the man of the hour who can be safely trusted with the great duties of the office to which he aspires, and I believe he represents the ideals of true Americanism." James G. Cotter, assistant attorney general, said: "I favor the election of Medill McCormick to the office of U. S. senator for many reasons, chief among which are that his selection in the primaries represents the best judgment of the great Republican party of the State of Illinois." Bcauregard S. Mosely, lawyer, said: "Medill McCormick represents the best there is an national politics today and I am for the best." Major R. R. Jackson said: "I am a Republican and in favor of the entire Republican ticket. Mr. McCormick was not my choice in the primary but he is the Republican candidate now and I shall support the candidate and the ticket." Jamas A. Scott said: "Immediately after the primary election the People's Movement adopted a resolution upon my motion ratifying the Republican ticket as nominated. The fact that Medill McCormick was the nominee of my pick for L. S. senator, is my greatest reason for supporting him." Dr. George C. Hal said: "I am for Medill McCormick. First, because he represents the highest type of true Americanism; second, he is constructive, progressive, honest, fair-minded and willing to stand up for manhood rights for all the people of this country." FINE DOCTOR FOR SELLING DOPE Kansas City, Mo., Nov. 1.—It cost Dr. B. B. Jackson $1,000 for writing prescriptions for drug addicts in order to enable them to obtain nerve soothers. Dr. Jackson was on parole, and upon the promise that he would discontinue the sale of drugs, Judge Fleming assessed an additional fine of $500 for vagrancy. B. E. "Knapp Agricultural Truck" to Visit Rural Districts Washington, Nov. 1.—The "Knapp agricultural truck," named in honor of the late Dr. Seaman A. Knapp of the Bureau of Plant Industry, Washington, D. C., is destined to visit many thickly settled communities inaccessible by railroads for the purpose of teaching our farmers agriculture and home economics by the actual demonstrations on their farms and in their business, also to prove to them that they can do better work, make more produce on smaller acreage and at less expense. Was Dr. Washington's idea Fourteen years ago Dr. B. T. Washington conceived the idea of fitting up a wagon known as "The Jessup agricultural wagon, or "The School on Wheels." This outfit operated exclusively in Macon, known by mules, and was very successful the Knapp truck," an extension of the Booker Washington idea, has been motorized and will be fully equipped with the necessary implements for conducting "movable schools" and many other forms of agricultural extension work now being carried on under auspices of the Alabama Polytechnic Institute and the U. S. Department of Agriculture. It is believed that nothing can go quite so far, all things being equal, toward vitalizing agricultural extension work in the rural districts as is true of these motor vehicles, and it is government extension agents throughout the south will be using this mode of travel as a means of securing more concrete results and getting closer to the problem of country life. BANK CASHIER DEAD Jacksonville, Fla., Nov. 1.—Horatio B. James, assistant cashier of the Anderson & Co. bankers, died last Tuesday of Spanish influenza. Mr. James was ill a very short time. The highest medical authorities obtainable under the direction of Dr. Cassius A. Ward, was placed at his disposal. The limitations of medical science was exhausted, but of no avail. The deceased was twenty-six years of age and was held in the highest esteem by members of both races. His tuneral was attended by a number of prominent and professional people of the city.

He moved to Cleveland and moved again to Chicago to find a wider field in which to preach the gospel. The town of Coshooton. In that doctrine he was brought up as a boy. I hold it to you, as any of my friends and acquaintances, colored or white, can bear witness. "Sir, as I have said to you, I have never been the posing and professional friend of any element in our American society, whether foreign or native-born, Protestant, Catholic or Jew, colored or white; I have believed as I preach, that plain, simple justice must be applied to all injustice sake, but because we Americans, as a people, cannot advance if injustice be done any element among us. Helped Continental Bill "It would not become me to speak in praise of my own activities, but at least I may recall that in the support of Major Jackson's bills, that in supporting the appropriation for the Centenary of Freedom, that in discovering the joker in the original conscription bill, I had a part, and not an insconsiderable part, in seeing that right was done and in serving my fellow citizens of your color. "My dear sir, I have the honor to be, with great consideration, respectfully yours. MEDILL McCORMICK." This letter will not only set Mr. McCormick right as to both his own attitude and the attitude of his ancestors toward the Race, but will win for him many and many a vote next Tuesday. A change of heart on the part of the Race will follow his bold declaration of respect for them, and of his unalterable belief in the equality of men under the law. In the formation of the draft law the Democratic members of the House and Senate introduced amendment after amendment authorizing the President to make exemptions until the amendment had substantially exempted all the colored people of the south from participating in the war. Work or Draft Law After these amendments were adopted Congressman Millic M cornick proposed an amendment which reads that "notwithstanding the exemptions contained herein, each state shall be required to supply its quota in the proportion that its population bears to the total population of the United States." This amendment was supported by the entire Republican mem- bers in both Houses and reluctantly accepted the Democratic because of their fear to raise the issue of patriotism, and it is only because of insertion of this provision within the law that the Negroes of the nation have been given full participation in the war activities with the people of other races.

SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 2, 1918 INFLUENZA Rube Foster's Managers and C The closing order from the health director in not allowing people to congregate in numbers at any place prevented the followers of the American Baptist Church against Vaughn, the leading pitcher of the Chicago National League. The day was ideal and a record attendance was assured. As the lid has not been closed, the team informed us that the Giants had played the last game for this season. Work of American Giants Wonderful The Giants, after winning the championship at Palm Beach, against the best players in the country, begin the 1518 season on their nerve, as the club was shot to pieces with uncertainty. At all attention of the players were of the selective draft of the army, as ter f the players were subject to the drs. With this in mind, their playing skills were improved, and are maintained with the system used by the Giants often seen the great play of the Giants forget the signals, and made them look foolish at times, when their reputation was danger when always rallied enough to beat their opponents. Giants Game Ball Club The Giants game was known what the word "gants" means. It was given up. Even their confidence was so great in their ability to win at all times that even the followers of the Giants were not so confident. And often with the same confidence, as often with the other, as high as 5 against them, it has held even that the Giants wc d win; in seven out of ten times they would win. The Giants were not the same as the Giants won, but the score against them in the seventh inning. One notable display of nerve and determination was shown by the Giants, who won 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38, 39, 40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51, 52, 53, 54, 55, 56, 57, 58, 59, 60, 61, 62, 63, 64, 65, 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, 74, 75, 76, 77, 78, 79, 80, 81, 82, 83, 84, 85, 86, 87, 88, 89, 90, 91, 92, 93, 94, 95, 96, 97, 98, 99, 100, 101, 102, 103, 104, 105, 106, 107, 108, 109, 110, 111, 112, 113, 114, 115, 116, 117, 118, 119, 120, 121, 122, 123, 124, 125, 126, 127, 128, 129, 130, 131, 132, 133, 134, 135, 136, 137, 138, 139, 140, 141, 142, 143, 144, 145, 146, 147, 148, 149, 150, 151, 152, 153, 154, 155, 156, 157, 158, 159, 160, 161, 162, 163, 164, 165, 166, 167, 168, 169, 170, 171, 172, 173, 174, 175, 176, 177, 178, 179, 180, 181, 182, 183, 184, 185, 186, 187, 188, 189, 190, 191, 192, 193, 194, 195, 196, 197, 198, 199, 200, 201, 202, 203, 204, 205, 206, 207, Rube Foster a Wonderful Leader For a club to make a record against odds as did the Giants there has to be at the read a leader of great ability. The Giants were fortunate to have Foster, as he is without doubt one of the greatest leaders in baseball, and if he had twenty-five men, as the big leagues, all trained with experience before they come to him, there is no league pennant he would not have a monopoly on. Those who meet Foster with that everyday pleasant smile do not know that he does more work in one season than all the Colored managers combined. First he has the White Sox within four blocks of him as a competitor, which in itself is some task to compete with, yet his following is so great we do not know the Sox are here so far as a handicap to him. He has to book all attractions for the Giants, arrange the dates for all the other big cities, often financing them; also arranging it so that they will be able to continue in the game; has to superintend the American Giants park, and many times when the Giants are in need of his advice he is sent for to straighten out some dissatisfied patron or to help out in the box office; has to help keep the crowds back, yet manage and direct the Giants. Even with all this his shoulders he is the most successful Colored man in baseball, the one that has made it a business. There is no organization that has not many internal problems to solve. In this respect Foster has more than the average to contend with, yet he manages and controls his players: they all love him, follow his advice not only on the ball field but in all walks of life as to what is best to do, and were it not for his diplomacy in handling the men some hotheaded player on the Giants would have long ago broke up the park. never criticizes a player for a mistake that he has no skill, because the player is made it is because the player is late in starting or forgets the way that it should be made. When these things happen with clubs that play with a system, if it does not go through it looks foolish, it looks foolish, and the player that cannot fit into the top of play of the Glants, regard- Food for the Stove "THE GREATEST PLACE GREAT SERIES OF A contributed weekly by Schalk, Joo Benz and "Rube" Foster, Amew Tribune; William.

Nothing like it has less as to how good he is, has only a short time to stay. Once she takes care, he made his men but she so much; was it not better to let them hit the ball; why he made them take so many strikes. He only saw the Giants when they are in action. I have them every day in practice, and in games you know what they know, because you have not seen them all week, what has transpired in their acquainted with their shortcomings, always send them to do what they are best fitted to do and not what ought to be. You have won more games than the Giants than anything else. If you let a player make the pitcher pitch four or five innings, and if you can hit at the beginning you can hit him when he is weaker and less effective. It is at attack. In most cases it is successful. Foster Plays the Men On the other hand, if you allow your players to make a few runs at the ball, they are careless. Should these few runs be overtaken they are in most cases in play, and they are in my attack on the field, liable my play at any time, as I play the men I am playing and arrange my attack on the position they are placed on the field. I told Mr. Foster I was blind, as many more are; his system was just the thing; he never does anything that knows the opposition better than the fans. Closing, he said: "Wby, I lost Williams and S. S. Gans, outfielder and Tom Johnson, and Williams, Bedding, Tom Johnson and Williams, and released Lloyd, a combination of the best players in the world. Even with this handicap we would have been better. C's and Hilladales—if we had not perfected this system. In so doing we again won the championship, defeated all opponents and played better ball this season, before you may be right, but I cannot get away from system."

He lost Wick-ware, Williams, Redding and Tom Johnson the four best pitchers in the world; Grant, star first baseman; Gans, wonderful outfielder; Williams, the crack shortstop; Lloyd, the peer of shortstops, yet in the face of this he again brought fame to Chicago in winning the championship. Mr. Foster enjoyed the 'best season of his career and played to the largest attendance in the history of the park. Foster is a genius.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER developed the fact that "Rube" Foster is in the baseball game. He lost Wickerson the four best pitchers in the world; derful outfielder; Williams, the crack yat in the face of this he again brought responsibility. Mr. Foster enjoyed the best largest attendance in the history of the AD IN CHICAGO cording to Joe. would mean much to the United War Work Council. Joe has hooked a birth with the Commission on Training Camp Activities and just to show 'em how good he really is. He has two or twenty to a finish and has selected Jack Dempsey or Willard as his opponent. Joe has he no desire to win the game, but the rules of patrolism, but nevertheless is supremely confident of beating either or both of the aforesaid warriors. Joe has scruppery averter that the title means that he is an Army or Navy and let the boys fight for it. Jeannette states that Willard won his title from a Colored man—one who is a personal or physical regard for him. He wished dippy over Willard's ability because he did not beat Frank Moran decisively; neither did Johnson turn away. He was more than more on account of the present hold—and who won it from a Colored man, as worthless. It means nothing to him; it means his power he would turn the whole world over to the thousands of heroic lads who are now facing the greatest sacrifice that we now acquire the greatest whole world—Champions of Democracy. Joe's last minute wall and late 'hour slap at the unfortunate former champion Johnson, does not for a minute impress Johnson, but for several goes with Johnson, mostly of the meal-ticket variety. After the latter had acquired the championship in clerk or out of the country that would allow the sense necessary to clinch a championship go. and fight devotees had no faith in matches between Colored players withstanding there has been a surfeit of each matches in recent years. The news spread like wild fire around 35th and State streets Wednesday when it was learned that William Buckner, 3447 S. State street, formerly trainer for the White Sox champions, the team next year who was the idol of the Chicago. This strengthens the statement made by the Defender that he is the making of a team for Chicago in 1911, a strange that Dr. Buckner was at the American Glants park last summer watching teams. He is "mum" on his friends that some friends at 35th and Shields avenue think kindly of the project. YALE PITCHERS BOWS TO LINCOLNS Olympic Field, Nov. 1.—A large crowd witnessed the defeat of the Patterson Silk Sox and the Newark Stars at Olympic Field last Sunday. Scores, 5 to 2 and 2 to 1.

BUNDY HELPS YOURSELF This paper, together with thousands of people, together with the country who believe in justice for the failing giving Dr. Bundy the finest kind of support in his effort to free himself from the charges hunging over him in connection with the East St. Louis case, the Illinois case, and the Nov. 18 at Waterloo, Ill., and in order that there may be no hitch in the proceedings for lack of funds, it is imperative that about $6,000 be raised in order to light the case to a successful male. While Dr. Bundy is the central figure, it must be understood that it is a matter that vitally concerns every one. His conviction means the wiping out to us of the rights of speech and self-expression in political status; it means that we must accept without protest the barbaric treatment oftimes accorded us. If Dr. Bundy was guilty of breaking the law without provocation, no sympathy would be wasted upon him. If he broke the law in self-defense or in presence of those courant or threat to him he is entitled to consideration and support. Believing him innocent, the strongest organizations and the most prominent men and women in the country have come to his rescue.

The woman in the party, turning around, observed Dr. Robinson, the famous inventor, standing in front of the drug store, hurled of pickled onions at his head, missing a piece of breadth. The jar was smashed into two pieces against the lamp post. Two white detectives appeared on the scene and showed a disposition to arrest Dr. Robinson because he ducked the bottle.

Meanwhile, Sullivan, looking for other worlds to conquer, found Attorney A. L. Williams, who resides at 2704 Prairie avenue, leaning against a mail box. He aimed a right hand jab at William's mouth, about yard and a half. Williams took advantage of the opportunity. He sprang on Sullivan like a cat on a mouse, and when Mr. Sullivan actually came to himself, he looked as if he had been in an ammunition factory during an ex-merchant.

White Policemen Overstop Bounds On or about Oct. 5 "Tall McGuire" (white), a policeman connected with the second deputy's office, with a number of bluecoats known as the moral guardian, proved their way into the residence of Rene R. Fitzgerald, an avenue, and arrested Dorothy Rudley, Gertrude Thomas, Mrs. Wilson, Jose Del Valle Mondez and Christable Torricante. All were charged with being inmates of a disorderly house. None of these people had ever been arrested before, and none of their previous reputation, yet they were charged with being inmates of a disorderly house. The case was called the following morning, but was continued to Oct. 18, on which date it was heard before Judge Cook. He heard the testimony of the man, out of which developed the animus of the persecution: McGuire testified that one of the women was white. This statement was proven to be true, but he showed in his ignorance and disobedience of the case that his only reason for the raid was based on his belief that one of the women was white. The court, after hearing all the testimony, discharged the defendants, saying that the officers had made no case, that there was no evidence of a crime produced, and that the police had right to invade homes and make wholesale arrests without a warrant. Women Rearrested As they left the court the women were rerestored and taken to the Lawn-dale Hospital, 34th and Lawndale avenue, where they were given some kind of training, and people who called themselves doctors, for which it is alleged they were taxed an exorbitant price. This institution supposed to be connected with the board of trustees, but who have been there that the environments and manner in which it is conducted is doing more to destroy the health than to improve it. The confluence of these two factors in the squad in their ruthless invasion of private homes, unwarranted in many instances, should be investigated. This branch of the police department for private homes is a police officer who consists of traffers and men who have sought the acquaintance of the underworld for self and profit. They are advised to go a little slow in their training, and to hear some news about themselves that they do not think other people know. Jealousy Causes William Woods to Seriously Stab Wife.

To the former, whose assimilation of music knowledge has been limited, the most simple means of music appreciation is through a rhetorical medium. A lecturer essayist is judged first by his ability to offer a constructive subject; second, the treatment of that subject, as introduction, development and finale or climax, continuity, and, of importance, delivery. He can sense the rhythmic flow of an orator, even if he speaks in a foreign tongue, if intelligent attention he given to the rise and the voice the holding of the listeners at all times, and if the forceful intensity and the raised voice for strong climax or contrariwise, the ultimate whisper, pleading to the emotion. Music is written in much the same style of construction and melodic flow, and if delivered with programmatic uninterruptedness, the easily absorbs the language of tone. A Wider Knowledge A wider knowledge of the subject, in a more intelligent way, would be to course with an interpretation class which would include teachers in most large cities. For the laity this course does not necessitate a musical foundation, but takes up lessons in the music of composers, schools of music form, operatic and symphonic discourses and systematic attendance of concerts interspersed with the use of the library. Last summer there came under my observance the case of a prominent school teacher of one of our largest schools, a Chopin scherzo, remarked that it sounded splendid, but confessed her lack of intelligent understanding, and that she would acquire an average standard of music appreciation. I was pleased to advise that she join an interpretation class at one most satisfactory method of training in the subject. Books of interest relating to the subject "Music Appreciation" are: "How to Listen to an Orchestra," by Bertolt Brecht; "Music" by Henry Edward Kroebel; particularly good, and "Grove's Musical Dictionary," which comes in a set of five volumes, costing $15, and should the library of every educated home. These are, factors which, if a student's music understanding, I印象 these music understanding. I印象 these one may build as high and as broad as one chooses. This "means, in brief, that music to be studied, and that study, properly done, will enrich the music lover. Notes Galli Curci has included some of Burleigh's "Spirituals" on her program for concert use this winter. She writes a white local music journal, gives an account of the piano work of Goldie Guy, a young Colored girl studying at the Chicago Plano College. The music she wrote was by Goldie Guy in the Weber concerto (C major), with Miss Godfrey at the second plano. The child's equipment is admirable and her mother attentively convincing beyond her years. The curci will tend the next concert and give readers a more detailed account of her work.

Egan is the chief clerk in the election office, and is the Democratic candidate for bailiff of the Municipal court of Chicago. Among his various duties as administrative head of the election office, is the employment of clerks in the office of the election commissioners, the selection of judges and clerks of election, in the two thousand or more election precincts of Chicago, and the location of meeting places in which the voters are required to go for the purpose of casting their ballots. . In every phase of this work, the conduct of Mr. Egan, particularly as it comes under the somewhat skillful observation. I is somewhat skillful observation because for almost twenty-four years I have been a clerk in the office up to his reputation of being a square-dal "public official in his relations with all citizens, and our statement is but the simple statement of a connection held by every man and woman to visit the election office during the last four years. The evidence of his favorable treatment and consideration of the political claims of the Colored men and one woman, every one of whom are members of the Ketcher family, while Mr. Egan is himself a Democrat. Our People Serving Not only this, but there are far more of our men and women serving as judges and clerks of election than ever served heretofore under former administration. With respect to the location of polling places, his policy has always been to give the polling place to some Colored person in precincts where they are in the majority. In Mr. Egan's office, and incidentally I might say I have been present at all of them, he has always emphasized the rule of the office that everyone who visits it shall be treated courteously, without regard So deep into the consciousness of his under-clerks has this rule been planted, that the window, information and other clerks, might with profit, be as models by other offices having direct access to the public and especially with our people. Appoints Mrs. Sims Mr. Egan recently appointed Mrs. Lulu Sims, 155 Walnut street (corresponding secretary to the Equal Opportunity League) to a clerkship in the election office upon the recommendation of Judge Thomas F. Scully and prominent citizens of the south and west sides. This is an evidence of his disposition to give the Colored women recognition in keeping with their enlarged political rights and obligations. For all the rules of reason it is only fair to assume that will incl his fair treatment of the Colored citizens upon his election to the office of bailiff of the Municipal Court of Chicago. I before feel justified in appealing to a cry Colored man and woman of the Chicago League to direct votes, and the women by their great influence, to aid in the election of Mr. Egan to the office of bailiff of the Municipal Court of Chicago.

If Dreams Came True If all of the weird, fantastical things we find in our dreams came true, A funny old world this surely would be we mortals are passing through. It wouldn't seem strange to see a pink goat with a flock of flying deer, All making a break for a wobbly lake, where some grunning snake sold beer. Real fairies in crowds we'd see pushing clouds with brooms that were ten miles long. HELP WANTED—WHITE IN A RECENT ISSUE of the daily papers we are informed that more than 300 telephone girls have been stricken with influenza and the Chicago Telephone company is advertising for young women to take their places. What we would like to know is whether or not this company is willing to accept applications from our girls, and if not why not? We have hundreds of competent, honest young women of prepossessing appearance, many of them graduates of the public schools of this city. The company is employing the young women of every nationality on earth, French, German, Polish, Lithuanian, Irish and Swedish, the only test being that they must be white, apparently. The telephone company draws no color line among its subscribers. Thousands of our people are telephone users, and it strikes us as strange indeed that this company will accept us as telephone subscribers to the extent of thousands of dollars yearly while 'denying to our children the right of employment. It is the old question of taxation without representation. If the fathers and brothers of our young women are good enough to fight and die for the country surely their children are good enough to be employed. The heads of public service corporations, and many private concerns, fall back on the old stock excuse that white help will not work with Colored help. Now let us see if this is the truth. In every department of the public service white and Colored help work side by side without friction, because they know that the department heads will stand for no color nonsense from its employees, and those objecting to us as fellow employees would be dismissed from the public service without ceremony. If weak-kneed employers of quasi-public service corporations, and large private concerns, had backbone enough to tell the silly objectors dependent upon them for their daily bread to attend to their own affairs, and let the management of these concerns, who have their thousands invested in the operation of their business, run their affairs, the color line would speedily vanish and a troublesom labor oblem would be easily solved. Instead of the management of these concerns taking this attitude, and little Miss Tese and little Miss Maggie Nobody dictating to us as to whom they shall or shall not employ. The whole situation ridiculous and could obtain in no other country except America. The disease is strictly Dementia Americana. What is true of the telephone company is true of the gas company and the street railway company. We spend thousands of dollars annually as users of gas and upon the cars of the surface lines. In return the gas company has given us a doorman and the street railway company a porter. In answer to our appeals for employment we are told by these concerns that "our white employees will not work with your people." The question could be quickly and easily settled if these concerns had nerve enough to show these dependents the door. Now "Senator" McCormick can bear witness, if that doctrine really lives in Medellín McCormick here is our hand and heart, and the ballot, and may the gods attend him. Our hope is that he will not falter. This we venture, because northern white men are merely cowards before southern white men. Mr. McCormick knows this. This final paragraph is good gospel: "Sir, as I have said to you, I have never been the posing and proclaiming of the American society, whether foreign or native born, Protestant, Catholic or Jewish; have believed as I preach, that plain, simple justice must be done all of us, not only for justice's sake, but because we Americans, as a people, cannot advance if injustice be done any element among us. Good luck & Ms. McCormick. We hope the Race will never regret that the North will not be able to win the South, which the South nor its politicians would ever glory. Mr. McCormick, do not senate honor on solving the race problem. That is God's business. Simply stand on Republican principles, grow into a big man and leave the rest to the Supporting Our Friends On Nov. 5—only a few days hence—hundreds of thousands of voters in Chicago, as well as throughout the state of Illinois, will proceed to their respective balloting stations for the purpose of exercising the most cherished privileges in all human affairs—the casting of an untrammeled freeman's ballot. Men are involved, men are on an equal footing and all are equally free and qualified to determine issues and policies that will promote or retard progress or welfare for years and years to come. This responsibility, though great, is one that is necessary to assume, and while nowhere under the sun does the same degree of political freedom prevail in all human affairs—the casting of an untrammeled freeman's ballot as in Chicago, if should likewise be understood that these valued rights did not extend to the extent in which they are now in evidence, since these were secured and they were established step by step. It therefore follows in logical order that the great benefits we enjoy in our relationships as citizens, the greater the weight of responsibility we must carry in order to maintain for ourselves and press our identity. In brief this is the response which the above communication demands. As a people we have been held in political and industrial bondage for a century, but gradually we have emerged from both, and now we are marching to that industrial freedom which is being installed throughout the world, that bright day in the future when the labor power of our people will not be sacrilegious, qualified the honesty of work or made a purchasable commodity in the polling place. It is with this thought in mind that we appeal at this time is put before those in whose interest we have labored and whose manent, substantial progress we have enlisted such faculties as we are able to command. If we expatriate ourselves politically we weld our own chains industrially, as without political emancipation there cannot be economic freedom. Judge Scully no party, no race and no condition, as is evident by answer to our inquiry. The principle of uncontaminated balloting has had his close scrutiny at all audits and has been the basis of the assurance of security at the ballot box our boasted ideas of justice, assurance, and safety and protection for the humble as well as the foundations of the opulent become undermined, while oppression and corruption take control. "The Way, The Truth And the Light" Elsewhere, somewhere towards east or west, in this week's Defender will be found a stirring indorsement of Thomas Van Lear, mayor of Minneapolis, and running for that high office again. The indorsement is of a man, a four-square man, and the indorsers are men, four-square men also, and determined to be more so in the future. Mayor Van Lear drove from the borders on his city that vulgar imposition known as the "Birth of a Nation." He was plain about what he was as it as a play and as a matter of history. As a play it did more to stir up anger than all the German propaganda that we are daily fighting, history, and Nor Vant declared that it was a lie and not true to history. That is to say, the mayor As a people we cherish freedom so situations so strongly that a searchlight one of us does not place the plan that supreme evidence of devotion of flourish and continue to be preserved. object lesson today. In the performance of our duty be our political performance and discern of Judge Thomas F.

As a people we cherish freedom so highly and are attached to our free institutions so strongly that a searchlight of the greatest power would fall to find one of us who does not love the glory of both and who is unwilling to display that supreme evidence of devotion of life itself, in order that this nation may flourish and continue to be preserved. The battle fronts of France furnish this objectively toay. In the performance of our duty let patriotic fervor go hand in hand with our political performance and discernment and by our votes make the return of Judge Thomas F. Scully a certainty. The Other Fellow We waste much of our valuable time wondering what our status will be after the war, if "him Crowism" in every form will be abolished, if the horse head of prejudice will rise as often as in the past, if the line so distracts us and to our well wishers on the other side will be crushed and American citizens will be punished, if the prejudice will kill us but one reply: Rome was not built in a day; the prejudices and traditions of the American white man must go as they came, gradually for man convinced against his will is of the same opinion still. Our future hinges on our making good—not good for Colored people—there must be a standard for all, and every man who is not black; there must be to that standard. Our whining, baby, do not succeed must measure up our shortcomings be overlooked; the need of many worth will be applied equally to all—if anything we must be made the better to get equal credit. We need the very best that is in office whatever task is set before us. We have asked for an even break, it is up to us to attend strictly, our own business and let the other fellow do the same thing. If we take care of the todays the tomorrows will take care of themselves. Surrender IN A NITTSHELL "surrender" warson's best communication to Germany, the American people's real sentiments to the Huns must be paid by demanding the veil or any other nation able by any other means thrown to the winds by our enemy are spared no man or no thing. To meet all allies to resort to similar tactics that on account of the acceptance to accept anything from Germany, conditional surrender at this time would which it would not soon recover. We he sands of human lives and at the cost of our lives, we must be in the past four years can be replaced by we have the monster practically at our need to be further tightened to force a surrender of our lives, we have the chicken-hearted, modify our dmands?

German hand will drag her out of this war when many wants and what she will get are **LLL "surrender"** was the dominant note to Germany. The time for tempus's real sentiments has long since passed, by demanding the veritable pound of flesh ablade by any international laws or orders, by our enemy and a fierce, bloody coing thing. To meet this condition it was similar tactics that made this war, grews lying from Germany and her allies but at this time would be to deal demon recover. We have paid the price of assets and at the cost of untold billions in damage, and can be replaced even in a physical sense practically at our mercy, when only tightened to force advocates of the rule of law can be used to defy our dmands? A thousand times but Wilson stand one hundred million sir each one. In France, in England and sentes expressed by our chief executive, the French, the Belgians or the English best blood is being sent to strengthen into this war. Germany is praying the out of this war while she is yet all tougt out she will get are quite different.

Fields The influences for evil, whether in state or church, have never been without sufficient financial aid to secure a certain element of questionable leaders to convey their schemes. A brief review of the character of many of the leaders opposing with a free mind and for the most part they represent "the bought and paid for" tribe. It is significant to note that the leaders in defense of their political bosses is usually "abuse" and their "logic" consists of charges that those who disagree with them have "sold out" and that people must appear humorous to the average citizen who has lived in the community for any length of time and may be a leader in the public career of these men. Especially when it's notoriously true that a number of these so-called leaders may have been "off of honor and respectability by proven charges of corruption and dishonesty. Loyalty Unrewarded A few weeks ago we ventured to advance the theory to the end that it would be to our best advantage to challenge the best become part of machinery of both parties. We endeavored to reason from the orderly process of thought that it was a dangerous proposition to carry all the power of the law intended that after fifty years of continued loyalty to one party we found ourselves without a representative in the disfranchised in a number of states, this in face of the fact that Republicans have been in control of both parties, with but two exceptions, every term with but two exceptions. Yet we are admonished by those who still call themselves leaders to still follow the ship and in support of their leadership, and to mention to the fact that the Republican party freed us. They fail to add that it was also the Republican party or its leaders who entered into a conspiracy to vote in certain southern states. They fail also to tell us that when we were being disfranchised in the South notwithstanding the fact that the Republican party had the house of Congress, no effort was made or their part to stay the hand which destroyed our political rights. The Republican party was accessory to the conspiracy made them conceiveable that we could have been subjected to any, worse disadvantages under a Congress controlled by Democrats than we were under a congress controlled by Republicans that country, it was to this party that we had given our unstinted loyalty and yet they permitted certain states to rob us of their rights under the pretense that Congress could not interfere. Ask Representation If this argument be true that the Republican Congress could give us no protection is it not at least inadvisable that we place ourselves in position by which we can influence in Congress, through the medium of the Democratic party in the East, North and West: to the end that we may have someone to represent the nation. We can only secure this representation by dividing our vote. We surely could not expect a man to give us the best advice in the nation after we had tried for fifty years to prevent him from building it. The same reasoning would apply. In order to enjoy some of the fruits of victory we must be a party to the struggle of the victor. Methods may change, but "principies are eternal." The man who stands with his face towards Lincoln stands with his face toward Lincoln stands with his face toward Lincoln faces the dead past, but the one who stands with his face toward our country's chief executive is pointing with his face toward Lincoln, who is a remarkable character in his day, fitted well the environment of his time. That was over fifty years ago. Take measurement of the growth of the country since then, and compare it with the growth of mercy, industry and wealth, then note our plight for having followed strict party affiliation. It will be found that we are still pyramids in all of the adverbs of mankind. Yet our leaders council us to stick to the republican party. "The Hand of Esau" Locally this same class of leadership is supporting an element of republicans in this city whose success William Hale Thompson, the best friend politically our people have had the past half century. The question, therefore, resolves into and into a question for our consideration. Shall we vote to elect the Brundage-Galpin ticket in Cook county, a republican faction whose nomination will be the minimum of William Hale Thompson or will we vote to destroy their political influence which will mean the suspections of William Hale Thompson, best friends we have ever had in the republican party?
