McKoin was a course at Johns Hopkins university. Immediately after his arrest came a telegram from Gov. Parker and the arrest of Dr. McKoin for murder. Hold him for Louisiana authorities. McKoin stoutly denied any wrongdoing in the attack, that was a member of the Klan, but praised the work of the organization. "All I know," he declared, "is that both men who were killed were members of the bootleggers, gunmen and men who associated with Negro women." The opinion was voiced freely throughout this city that Governor Ruth Browne papers for McKoin's extradition to Louisiana. Papers were expected to arrive shortly. This opinion was taken by Maryland authorities, a large number of whom are Catholics, have taken against the secret organization.

By BUD SAMUELS Bastrop, La. Dec. 29.—With the governor of the state, supposedly the state's law and order, on one side, and a hooded mobe, honeycombing its way into every class and condition of citizen, the scene of one of the most extraordinary situations it has ever faced. The government of the state has devised a plan. The Klan, instead of hiding itself, denying its own existence, has accepted the challenge of the law forces. Into trust the state has injected militants. Orders State Militia Early last week Governor Parker ordered two companies of the state Morhouse parish in order that the waters of Lake LaFourche might be dragged in a search for the bodies of Watt Daniels and Thomas Richards, who were disposed to have been stained by the Khan.

This was because it is hard to have been obstructed by Khanapour led the militiamen of the right trail. On the night the bodies were recovered, the soldiers are said to have been taken at a distance. The men in uniform were unable to tell who their assailants were. All that they could ask was whether they were fired upon. They were ordered to return the fire, which they did without any known casualties, immediately thereafter nooses of an unknown number were heard, where 1,000 pounds of dynamite had been set off. The explosion occurred in another body, which was brought to the night surface two torosis. Investigation proved that the torosis were of the bodies of the two men sought. Daniel was identified by a watch and a pathologist of Tulane university in New Orleans were sent for to make an examination of the militias. After the examination, a high official declared that "the death was horrifying in its details." Dr. Charles W. Burvut and Dr. G. M. Lantford, who were deputy spy, refused to make any statement. The bodies of Daniel and Richards were turned over to members of their families in the direction of Attorney Coope. Two additional companies of militia from the 156th Infantry, under command of Col.

Medics Seek Undertaker Co-operation Medics Seek Undertaker Co-operation A plea that the undertakers of Chicago co-operate more fully with the physicians of the city in obtaining post-mortem examinations was made by Dr. W. W. Gibbs, president of the Chicago Physicians association before the Chicago Undertakers association at a banquet in the Vincennes hotel. Dr. Gibbs asserted that Chicago was regarded as holding the lead in the mortality and that the entire country was looking to the medical men of this city to make certain scientific advances. Physicians in Chicago, he described, charged against the health of the Race made by large white insurance companies and to remedy lilies that they found to this end they demanded assistants to assist them in autopsy work. "Very frequently men and women come into my office and complain for $100 or $150 for caskets that only cost the dealer $10," said Joseph Bibb, editor of a local weekly, in suggesting that if the undertakers were to be an organization to advance their organization, to advance good and correct evil in the business. R. H. McGavock, president of the Chicago Undertakers association, was master of ceremonies at the banquet. Other speakers were Frank W. Henry, undertaker; Wendell Gaskins managing editor of the Chicago Enterprise; the Rev. N. L. Smith of the Smith College; the presidents of the Cook County society; Warren B. Douglas and Mercer L.

Egyptian Tomb Cache of Treasure Luxor, Dec. 22—Prof. Brentsed, the American Episcopian, whose dahaeah here is flying an American flag big enough to dominate the waterfront from the tomb of King Tutenkhman in the Valley of Kings at Thebes, recently discovered by the Earl of Caravon and Howard Carter. I called upon him and received the following statement: he have spent an hour in the tomb of Tutenkhman. The impression is overwhelming. The dispatches have beedy suggested its marvelous reality. It is a sight I never dreamed of seeing—the antechamber of a Pharaoh's tomb filled with magnificent equipment which only the wealth and splendor of the imperial age of Egypt could have wrought or conceived, and with everything still standing as it was placed there when the tomb was last closed in antiquity, and the furniture found surpasses all precedent. In quality it is an astonishing revelation of the beauty and refinement of Egyptian art at the culmination of its development the imperial age, before it was abandoned. To the undoubted perseverance of Lord Caravon and the devoted labors of Howard Carter all students owe a debt of gratitude for the most important research of history in the Nile valley."

I., Dec. 29—Alfonso Fresnido, a member of the Constabulary band, has been appointed director of the band, to succeed Maj. Albert Loving, creator of the famous organization. Report of Fresnido's appointment was confirmed by Gen. Rafael Crane. Loving is to be retired S. It is understood that Major Loving tuned in the film of the band had not been for unfortunate standings. fortunate stands. Maj. Loving he himself took. Maj. Loving generally circulated in the city that the major considered himself indispensable to the organization and of more importance than the general commanding. Those who were supervised because of what they term spirit of street censure, but because they would rather have had Loving stay on, and believe that he has been supervised because of what they term street censure, Fresnido is a hostenant in the band. At the time of his appointment he was studying music at a conservatory and because of what he mentakes effect at the end of this month, and Fresnido is expected to assume charge January 1. Referring to the appointment, the groom told: "It would be a bad policy to put a new man at the head of the band. The members of the band would resent the appointment and the groom's experience has shown that a man from outside leading the band does not get the moral support of the group and a successful director. A man taken from the band with a knowledge of military discipline and all the work that each member of the band needs to do, will make a good director."

They are published. They suggested, some of them in an ill-mannered way, that the reports were not true, that the reports do not seem to wish to behave that we tell the truth. It does not matter to them that the Defender has 1,000 South, a part of whose duty is to report happenings in their districts.

Unfortunately, we are not able to take such action, always to take the whole of what this larry of reporters send to us. We continue, that they will seek to play up ends that appear big to them. So we hit a lot. Many of their reports of our records, never巩呖ing them. The following account of the excursion, the new migration, is taken from the papers, the Memphis Commercial appeal tool and instrument of those conditions that chase the natives of the South into the North. The Dec. 19th edition of the Memphis Appeal makes the white man has to say about it will be accepted as the truth. It know that he is not told that he is not the white man. He is overlooking the reasons for the excursion. The powers in the South and oppress, knowing full well that these things are working to deprive the nation of the South. What is published below is a belated report of a movement that has been going on, and that is still in progress since last spring. We ask our critics if we have been telling the truth. 12,000 in 90 Days Negroes continue going northward. In the past 90 days more than 21,000 sppi and Arkansas deltas for work in industrial plants of Chicago, St. Louis and Detroit. Most of them have information obtained from railroad officials, who say only a scattering of the thousands have been engaged to work in Arkansas has not suffered in this loss as much as the Mississippi delta. From points in the latter territory on Saturday evening, Dec. 16, northbound Illinois Central train No. 44 four carloads of them. Fracast railroad was from Mississippi. During the past two months the Rock Island, Prisco and Missouri sppi have been Arkansas delta. Some claim the K, K, K has been after them in certain Memphis and continue their journey. Five Negro families were at Grand Central station yesterday waiting for work from the Mississippi delta. None would tell what part of the delta they came from. In fact, very little information was found from heads of younger families. A spokesman for the five families said they were leaving Mississippi prospered. They claimed to have been kept in debt year in and year out by land owners. One man, who reworked 10 years on one plantation, and this year in settling up he had worked 10 years on another plantation, this would not pay for clothing for his family, let alone buying provisions. What live stock they had in the plantation was not detroit through the crisis when cotton was at its lowest price. This Negro had a letter from a man in the town to Detroit of the summer of 1917. He later sent back to Mississippi for his wife and children. He being a businessman at industrial industry had earned his money and was living in a steam-heated house. His two children were educated. This Negro claimed another man he knew was making $7 a day in Chicago and his living ex- These Nogroes are not only moving homes, but also helping their household goods. Reports from the railroads show many have gone north with provisions for their families. These were Nogroes who are more successful on plantations than some of their neighbors. In fact, it was more successful for more than a year for this trip. Hill Workers Go to Delta While the delta Negroes are leavening the plantations, those from the Mississippi Delta are mourning the dead. Are they sad, are falling under the number leaving, and planters are unable to buy their definite plans for a crop in 1923. Two hundred Negroes on an average are at Memphis to leave on every day, and they buy a train. They have through tickets, sometimes purchased from a small station on the line extending near Memphis, to buy a local ticket to Memphis and re-hire here for destination. No labor agents have now on in the plantations. In cases of the deltas, in cases where the Negro does not have enough money to send for himself. He promises to send for his wife and children. Very often, say railroad officials, the Negro does not have tickets for tickets by other relatives who have been north several months. More than two years ago, when the plantations, the railroads of the South issued orders not to honor prepaid tickets sent them by relatives or concerns. That order is still in force.

If you have not known that, you would have learned at Christmas. We had told of the cheer that mplified in the town, but it was the happy people would only share a bit of their happiness. We did not know the whole story. We didn't know all the story until "it breaks." When the huge Defender trucks began their rounds Christmas morning evening, everyone came to Chicago and they learned that Santa never dies because the longer he lives the more he enjoys his work and that he is giving cheer he has to the happiness that produces his proverbial smile.

Dec. 23. "Get out of this office, or I tilt you out!" cried Judge Beverly Berkeley (white) of the local municipal court to Miss Bertha E. Lawson, a teacher in the public schools here. Miss Lawson expressed some doubt as to whether the upholder of the law would suit his action to his wife. He kicked her out. Now 10,000 of this city's Race residents have banded themselves together with the demand that they go to work. The city is together, lawyers and doctors, merchants, bootleggers, gambblers. They have asked the city council for 10 more long ago, Miss Lawson (she weighs 100 pounds), in company with the city's police and pay taxes. They both were unacquainted with the location of the tax collectors' office. They stopped to ask for information. This room happened to be occupied by Berkeley. In asking for information, she failed to refer to him as minister. Judge Threatens Her Berkeley stormed, asking her if she thought he was an information bureau and threatening to kill her out. He tasted and he planted the toe of his boot squarely on her knee can. There were no men of her Race and they were forced to submit to the insult. One of the Lawsuits, Fred, is a star football player. He didn't have a job. He was forced to work. The girl and her mother limped upstairs and found the office they were seeking. They got in line and they were forced to follow them and had them arrested on a charge of disorderly conduct. They were forced to take a cash bond and they were forced to next morning Miss Lawson was fine $5 by Police Judge W. J. Austin upon evidence offered by Berkeley. The latter is said to have declared at the court that he girl and would do it again. Appeals Fine A petition has already been drawn up and submitted to the city council. The petition has been made to the corporation court. In the meantime the city council has promised action, that the reputation of the kicking judre is not at all good among his own people. These reports have connected his name with unsavory associations, some without. No proof has ever been had. Miss Lawson is a member of the First Baptist church and a teacher at the school. She made an admirable plea for her before the city council. She lives with her parents who are respectable, working citizens of the community.

There were others who were glad of the chance to ask the "Goodfellow" to tell them how.

The Ku Klux Klan has been strong in this city, but it has made no move after Berkeley. This has suggested the possibility that he may be a member of the organization. The Rev. Hatcher in his address before the city council warned the members that if such rascality was not stopped they might expect such men as Berkeley to be kicking white women around some day. He also said that it was fortunate no men of Miss Lawson's Race were present at the time of the outrage, or Rounok might have been lacking one judge. He warned of the day when men of this color should retaliate in full measure. Students of Howard Win High Honors Washington, D. C., Dec. 29.

You should ask the neighbors. Oh, but didn't she shout her哭. She couldn't, didn't she express her anger as though an angel from above had confronted her. And then she quieted and just trembled. The angel in men and women who had come to her expressedly happy. Her brood looked at her with dirty faces and studied their worn mother. They had never seen her. The "Goodfellows" entered the house of a widow on 51st street. Children ran, shouting, and jumped upon them. They had been hoping for the Christmas gift. They saw their Santa, though they didn't have the frosted face of the north, and they were glad. They envisioned full stomachs and a tongue aching. That would be satisfied, if just for one. At every place there was not an adult. Yes, even on Christmas morning, some people, mothers, have to wear a hat. They are rear flat on Ribodes avenue. Three children lay in a dirty bed in a dark room, asleep. Santa entered the dusty room. From under the worn covering the children emerged. They were all in their baskets.

Ware, proprietor of the Atlanta Undertaking company, was indicted by the grand jury this week for robbing graves in South View cemetery.

This robbery was uncovered in the confession of Thurman, Jones, who was buried in a casket in which contained Jackson's body as the one he had grave up and removed from the grave of the Joyce Bodies in Pino Boxes Jones' confession further led to the finding of the bodies of Laura Perry and Anna Rush in pine boxes in the graves without cashes.

I bld the South good-by. Just northward bound mids ice and snow. Without one wistful sigh. Columbia, S. C., Dec. 29—The steady exodus of our people from South Carolina to Detroit, Chicago, New York, Philadelphia and Washington is causing increasing increase among growers of cotton in this state. The migration is state-wide—alpine into coaches on trains reserved for our people—scenes around dingy railway stations in the country districts and deserted cabins in cotton fields—all carry a message that even the most carless can read. Exodus Increases Instead of showing a lessening, the exodus is holding its own if it is not actually increasing and some people hold that it will reach its peak in the next year. Bishop W. D. Chappelle of the African Methodist Episcopal church in South Carolina has charge of six conferences with a membership of approximately 70,000 worshipers. He states that between 5,000 and 8,000 members are attending during the last year. Some churches are literally populated, only two or three members remaining. "The exodus has been heaviest from those sections where the boll weevil was most destructive and the population was the treatment of their tenants," the bishop said. "In some counties tenants had everything, almost, taken from them—even their chickens and cabbages in their gardens. At this season of the year there is generally a large number of exodus year to bring in a little extra cash, so the people are leaving," he said. In many cases landlords own farms of 700 to 1,200 acres and put their property under the direction of an overseer. These landlords sometimes have inked, may never have seen their land, and are not their rent, regardless of condition, and in order to pay them the tenant has to be dispossessed of practically all of his property. This is, citizens of the landlord's town, where the farms are small and where the landowners knows his tenant and knows that they have actually tried to make a crop, more lenency is likely to be shown, but where the landlords still in vogue on almost every farm. "Higher wages in the North and West is the magnet which is drawing the people North," many say. Farms are practically deserted and labor for them is not to be a problem. The situation is causing grave concern among the farming population generally. Another reason given by South Carolinians is that the state and city officials have been accused of being in sympathy with the Ku Klux Klan movement, and that unless a law is enacted, the South danger looms in the future for those who try to escape. Men and women have been flogged indiscriminately for minor offenses and the use of the firearm. They prehend the accused. Southern white men do not want foreigners to work the fields, because they fear racial conflicts with white landlords. The South has a strong arrogance, long practiced on members of our Race without interference, would seriously cripple co-operation so much needed to promote industry in the South.

Editor Says White Robes Are Insults The Ku Klux Klan is being repudiated in the South, according to extracts from an editorial of the Greenboro, N. C., Daily News of Dec. 18. It reads as follows: "The existence of the Ku Klux is an insult to the white race," says the editorial. "It is an admission that we cannot defend ourselves except by a cowards' weapons.

They were also aware that time have been preaching violence on every occasion to the Negro element."

They beat him some more, turned his face toward home and told him he would go in the direction he was headed he would land there. He told them he thought the sack might as well come off his head and recognize no one in the party, and to see that none of the cars bore license tags. The beating was severe but left no permanent injury. He was burying between six feet and six two in stature, powerfully built. He is an upstanding man, and carries himself with an air of unquestionably belonging on the earth. He is his never hurried body in his hands, his conscience void of offense and made up his mind from the first to take whatever was given him without resistance, as resistance of 40 by one he could not handle, by one he could not handle. He relates his experience calmly and says he talked with the mob in his ordinary conversational tone. Hall conveys the impression that fear of man is foreign to his nature. He insists he was not frightened on account of his experience of it carries conviction. He is an educated man, accustomed to address crowds, and he expresses himself with confidence and eloquence. He has been a co-worker with Frissell. Booker Washington and Dr. Moton, and has been thorny to the Booker Washington doctrine.

The wound that caused her death was inflicted by a pistol she had taken from a desk in an office she had taken from before the day she shot herself. The bullet entered her right temple and death must have been instantaneous. The fact that her father, now dead, lived in Atlantic City nothing is known of her relatives and past connections. Among the effects found in her injuries, a trunk of excellent clothes, a box containing a suit and a fur coat. RUSSIANS BUOY SELVES IN RISING TIDE OF COLOR [CHRONADER SERVICE] Constantinople, Dec. 23.—Contrary to the impression stated in the constitution given, it is not the slightest prospect of a breach in the cordial relations now existing between soviet Russia and Nationalist Turkey. Between Moscow and Angora, far from being loosened, is tightening. In addition to the political and military agreements already in force, a commercial treaty is being prepared. Turkey is becoming the champion of all movements for national independence throughout Islam. Delegations from Egypt, Afghanistan and other countries are at Angora on their way thither. The Caucasian republics are coagulating a bloe under the supervision of Russia and they are partly Moslem. The effect of these new alliances must be generally beneficial to the Race peoples of the world who must ultimately gain as the result of the weakening of the influence and presages of the oppressive group or bloe represented by England, France and Italy. Race men who have the brains and ability should study and master every known principle and theory of the scientific world and professions.

NO SEGREGATION SAYS BISHOP OF CATHOLIC CHURCH Lay Cornerstone for Separate Edifice in Cleveland, Ohio; Structure to Cost $25,000 Cleveland, Dec. 29.—The cornerstone of the first Catholic church devoted exclusively to the Race in the city* of Cleveland has been laid by Bishop Joseph Schremls. It will sit 500. The parish will be under the title of Our Lady of the Blessed Sacrament. The building, which will cost approximately $55,000, is the gift of two sisters of the city who wish to remain anonymous. Pending completion of the new office early next year the congregation is holding services in the chapel of the church. Three sisters of the community of the Blessed Sacrament aided Rev. Thomas E. McKenney in his work. The sisters have been engaged in welfare work since their arrival several years ago. The completion of the church adjoining rooms will be arranged for a parochial school. The ceremony of laying the cornerstone was attended by several thousand persons, the greater number being those of the other parishes of the city. In an address Bishop Schrembs said that he thanked God for the occasion, and said that he hoped the congregation be educated edition for divine worship. The bishop told the people that he wanted them to spread the knowledge of the Catholic faith among their brothers and sisters. He said, "And of the church," the bishop said, "there is no distinction of race. He is our Father, and we are His children." The bishop also eulogized Mother Katherine Drexel, founder and superior of the Sisters of the Blessed Sacrament, a member of the teacher of a man of wealth and a descendant of one of the most distinguished families in the United States, she thrust aside social vanities and chose to give her life and fortune to the church. The bishop praised Father McKenney for taking up the work. He said that when he contempt and founding the parish Father Merceney told him that he would gladly take the post and to dedicate a privilege to be allowed to work among the Colored people of this city. In establishing the separate church for the people, the bishop said, there are many churches of the church to segregate them. He said that there are many churches among the non-Catholic denominations exclusively for the lace, and that the church is the mind of their own parish church that the new church was established.

C. C. Ellis, pastor of the A.M. E. Zion church here, was delivering his sermon Sunday evening the Rev. J. W. Selectman, noted minister of the church, came to the service, but he never left it alive. Death came to him while he sat listening to the discourse. The only sign of physical distress that he gave was the sudden lifting of his arm. When relatives and friends reached him he was dead. Heart failure is supposed to have been the cause. In the death of the Rev. Selectman the Methodist denomination has lost a conspicuous character and a natural leader who stood for cleanliness in church, home and school. In 1874 he HI in Nelson county, Kentucky, and was licensed to preach in 1877 by the Rev. B. Bridwell. He married Miss Lacy McClain in September, 1880, and to them were born eight children, three of whom are dead. Those who now survive them are a lady, Margie Gibson of this city, and Mrs. Ada Mundy, 5756 South State street; William Selectman of the same address; Mrs. Ruby Runnels, 3228 Vernon avenue, and Mrs. Bessie Martin, 1900 West Lake. The body of the church layler in state at the scene of his death from Wednesday night until Thursday afternoon and scores of his friends of both races viewed his remains. His funeral was preached by the devout of Atkinson college and a lifelong friend of the deceased. In fraternal orders the Rev. Selectman stood high. He was a charter member of the Mosaic Templars here and six lodges turned out to pay him which was in charge of the funeral which was in charge of W. R. Teague and Son, undertakers. In private life the Rev. Selectman was noted for his Christian character—the exemplary life he lived in his burth and home.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER KELLY MILLER ASKS FOR ONE BIG RACE CONFERENCE PERSONALITY CARD Try the following out on your friends and the family. See how the folks around measure up so far as personality goes. Let some one try it out on you. It's a good way to take an inventory of one's self and personality. You'd be surprised at how far from 100 per cent you're likely to be. By KELLY MILLER The times are out of joint. Racial portents are ominous. The rising tide of color threatens to engulf us. The problem is becoming more complex because of the increasing counter rises with danger the cause will be lost through timidity and cowardice. The welfare of the 10,000 Negroes in the United States demands directive leadership than that of any other group of similar size and like advantage in the world. There is the widest margin between what is necessary and what is boasting of our present attainments blinds us to the magnitude of things yet to be attained. This gap can be directed by the new direction. The incoming of the new year emphasizes our delinquency. Within the next half generation there is going to be a tremendous change in the world. Whether this is to be for the better or for the worse depends upon the initiative, the courage and the wisdom which the Negro displays. The new direction. Forces and reactions. Forces and reactions now at work if unchecked will fix him for good in a helpless and hopeless position. Instant action is demandable in dangerous. Delay may prove fatal. Time la Ripe The time is fully ripe for a race conference to deliberate upon the assemblage of the far as practicable, to formulate a platform of principles and a program or programs of procedure. Special and peculiar interests and relations infinitely more serious and vital than any other subordinate element into the peculiar problems of the foregiver are temporary and limited to one peculiar problem, a serious and semi-religious relations of his own making and of his own preference. The Catholic differs from the Protestant only in the worship. The Negro alone is separated from the rest of the nation by the whole diversity of the difference which entails the regulation of all the essential intimities of life. This regime is imposed upon him. He did deliberation as the Congress gives to him and the Senate Special and specific racial interests require as thoughtful and as wise deliberation as the Congress gives to him and the Senate. We have a adequate or competent body to give our issues comprehensive and statemanlike conventions and to be aware of the interests and activities at work in the field are absorbed in their own objectives and are wholly without efficient co-ordination or union of aim and purpose.

This conference should not be fostered by any organization, organizational agency, interest now at work, should unite upon a call to consider the state, the federal government, the A. A. C. government such as the A. C. Equal Rights league, the Lincoln league, the Race congress—religious bodies like the National Baptist conference, the A. C. Equal Rights league, and the M.

B business and economic agencies, like the Women's clubs and the Press association, and the Federation of Women's ramifications should be represented. The time has come for all to pull together. If we continue to pull apart the state, the federal government is greater than any of its parts. The members of the body can never cooperate properly unless they become aware of the importance of the body as a whole. While no one of these efforts has left a reedium of lasting good. Many will recall the effort of Jool Sping home. A fire at the home of an allen of the group saw the necessity of formulating a common program, surely we must heed Can't Depend on Whites The Negro can no longer took to the white race for intimate advice directed to the white group to regulate the intimate procedure for the inside. The white philanthropists have done a good job in educating the white forever are not worthy of being helped at all. Self-expression on part of the Negro will encourage our white assistance. But they cannot be expected to carry him on their shoulders any further. The Negro henceforth must be the chief victim, the shift of population, congestion in cities and the acute situation resulting in religious and religious indifference of the adducted classes, the downward moral tendency of the times in which our young people are being called to enter the business and trade, the growing apathy of the white race and the title all suite in demanding the proposed conference at an early date.

Postponing a Christmas Gift for 29 Years By ROGER DIDIER Bill told this story. You ought to know Bill. He's been around town so long that you have to go to him to find out how your "Dad" went as sparking or what "Mom" looked like in pinafores. Everybody calls him Bill now and marvel at his few gray hairs that have managed to struggle through. His story was about Christmas and it went a long way back. There was a girl in it—at least she was a girl when the late related began. Bill never was a sport. He never cared a whole lot about clothes, even when he was in New York. The girl lived there. Somehow, outside of her, nobody but the fellows around the clubs understood Bill. With them he was at home. There was not a celebrity in a Bowery taproom who didn't know and like Bill. The society folks never went out of their way to get to him. Bill wasn't done up in such splendid wrappings. He says now that he didn't blame them. He was a rustler—he'd have been a bore to the nice church-going people. The girl, though, got to him. They weren't sweetsurds, no, not hardly. But she was willing to walk the streets with Bill, to see a show with him, to talk with him. Her kindness touched him. Christmas was coming and Bill told her he was to mean nothing more than an expression of his appreciation of her confidence in him. He was coming to her. Christmas found him far away. Five, ten, twenty years passed, and she got him. Bill came to Chicago again. He worked into the life out here. He learned the first names of all the people he knew. Bill—sportsman, clubman, rusher. He lived the life he wanted to live, tussled with failure and smelled ginger smoke. Then there were his savings. He had a little fund aside. "Tch, boy," he said to it, "I finally learned that I am not the only person been 29 years since I promised it to her. Shore have been savin' up for that. Well, 'en she gets it now, it will be like that.' I have been her to have it. I meant for her to have it if I could ever get to it. Used to walk up and down the street with her. I could not frighten. Couldn't much blame 'em. Her mother didn't think so much of it, either. But that girl was some kind of person who like it. Yesir, it is 29 years. So that's the way Bill has come through 29 years. He sent the ring to New York. The girl is still there. He makes his living now writing his "Memoirs." It would have been a treat to have seen Bill pack that ring—that band of friendship.

I promised and kept it and a few years back, when my sister had just finished college, she too was called to meet my mother in the great beyond. Now, after my years of trials, my sister was taken just when she was to comfort me. What I ask you, Princess, can you tell me of a poor ragged fatherless boy, whose mother is not able to give him proper care, or some family who have too many children to support.

Jim is still a delightful entertainer—he is not an old timer, all his personal belonging to the world. He was a wide warden, were wonders, were well-received. Real novelty acts are so rare among Colored performances that it is so good to see the show as a classical show. The first cross and Jackson were excellent and scored heavily. The singing of Miss Jackson was especially good. The one with the唱er was the best of the new people. We had a little Henry, closed the olio in a whirlwind of laughter.

AGENTS WANTED EVERYWHERE THE CHICAGO DEFENDER NEW E TRIO TO HAVE THEATER Paul Dunbar Will Be Name of House Devoted Exclusively to Racial Productions New York.-Colored musical attractions featuring the swing tunes and puppy dancing that bring rich rewards 'to such productions as "Shuffle Along" and others of its ilk, will soon have a permanent home at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, specially constructed for the purpose of presenting the street, says a writer in the Morning Telegraph. It will be known as the Negro poet, named after the famous American Negro poet, and will be the first house devoted exclusively to Colored productions in the Broadway section. The poet is Ben Harris, a Newark lawyer and owner of the Hill theater there, and first attraction at the Dunbar, musical recue called "How Come?" The lyrics and score of this production are written by the artist, who of late has shown as much interest in Berlin as in Blackstone. The producing concern has already been incorporated as the Criterion Producer. The property on which the new theater will stand was bought several years ago and motion and motion exhibit, it was intended for a picture house, but previews and the consumer project. The Harris interests, however, have already arranged for the auditorium to be the building that meet the current law requirements. It is the intention of the sponsors to have an impressive event. Dedication ceremonies will be participated in by well known advocates of the Negro arts in music and the arts of the stage.

She demonstrated in the course of her work and is a delicacenter of the magic art.

Fine 50 per cent. Prof. Franklin, the grand old man, with his trained enines was pleasing to a high degree, but hampered by an inability to deliver the proper speech and speed, due in a measure to age, tended to retard his earning power in the percentage column. Good round of applause: $5 per cent. Miss Gertrude Williams, doing two songs in one, was pleasing to look at, as she wore gowns that merited: is possessed with grace and charm. Her voice is short of being great, but she knows how to put it over, thus hitting $5 per cent. Prof. Roches, owner of the show, can tell you all about his line in the painting of silver dollars, starting with an empty hat and filling it practically full, bringing in the moon, and seeming to get them from the atmosphere. If he would adopt a rapid pace, he would run without so much repetition and handle those who are called upon the stage in a more formal manner he would be able to handle things, though easily recalled, brought him down to 50 per cent. The afterparty was filled with glittering, full of action and showed God Pope up as a tragrifan of ability. All of the forementioned took part in the show, and he led, merited 50 per cent for his acting and speech. Good show; something different. Yours, JACK L. COOPER in days of old, he were held.

We are least happy and able to at least exchange presents on the show. It is the Christmas spirit to know and all showcases to be in position where to it at Yuleside. Some, however, are unfortunate enough not to be in position to do so and it is up to we more fortunate ones to try and give all we can that we might blot out any feeling of sorrow among the unfortunates as this time is the year. Some last Christmas we have lost many valuable actors, some of whom God called, we hope, into His told. Others had to give up the struggle on account of ill health, and there are still others who for some reason or other are behind prisons, such as and deprived of the opportunity of reliefs.

To begin with, we found the managers, Wm. A. Barrass and Sun for the next month. A. Barrass, a man who was so fond to be filled to the firm with the Christmas spirit, even before Xmas arrived. However, they had a right to leave the house for the next month, because business was rather punk during the week, undoubtedly due to the fact that the theatergers had spent all of their surplus to the home and was jammed them in a few nights anyhow. Our offerings for the return dates seemingly are making equally as good. The show is in general well-served with one good present for Xmas, which came in the form of a notice of the half-monthly show, and the letter half. Buddy Jones were closing tonight. This notice was handed in Friday, which means we got a three-day notice. The call was replaced them readily with Tom and Amanda Scott, and could have replaced them just as well with two chorus girls, had the South of the show. We were prepared, however, and have been prepared for this blow-up for quite some time. Miss Barlow having pulled last, only one of the two people have been closed up to the very last moment and ask to be reinvited. Then, too, she never stays with any show long. This was the first time I had to feel for the person we have been prepared.

In the great country home of the Gregorys a gang of all types of crooks seems to have money for themselves, taking for jewels some for money and some for the Gregory heirs. Mamie was the heiress to all intents and purposes, Grandfather Gregory, to protect his granddaughter against kludging, had persuaded Mamie to impersonate her. Now Mamie wished herself back in the Ton in the ladies dresses department. Suddenly she heard a noise near the sate in the big drawing room. She peeked in. Someone was leaving. She ran and got the jewels herself, getting out just as the crook re-entered. Then she ran smack onto the blind man! He grasped her roughly. She ran back and caught a detective who had shadowed her, in trying to save the jewels she had incriminated herself. No a picture in Gladys' career has had in it more of the lure of mystery, romance and adventure the Lavender Bath Lady" the University theater at the States theater on Sunday. BITS FROM BROADWAY Well, Field Marshal Tony: The Criterion Producing corporation, of which I wrote you last week, has bought a new name it the Fault Laurence Humhur theater. Ben Harris and Sam Grisman will present a new Colored production of the theater, and after that it will be exclusively for Colored productions. We new production, "How Come," and be my lie, they are tomeful. They are really away from the tin pan alley some comes with a new twist to them. Folks, if you will stop to think of it is a wonderful thing. At last we are to have a real Broadway theater, and Messrs. Harris and Grisman say the "Paul Laurence Dunbar theater will be a beauty. If money can make it, it's a different expense will be spared. An other thing is last we have a man that is willing to spend real dollars on a Colored production. Len Harris says, "I want it done right, so don't fall to ask for anything you need that money can buy to make 'How Come' a real Broadway production," and Sam Grisman gives the order: Jack Goldberg executes it. Sam Grisman knows his stuff when in come to the store now. He started his career in a stock company and climbed the theatrical ladder until he owns his own theaters. Ben Harris is a lawyer, but he also owns his own theater. He knows that anything connected with the show business costs dollars. Jack Goldberg grew up in the show business. So you see this is not a bunch of "Johnnie Newscomers" that are producing a color of product. "How Come," Jack and me only both started in real show business down at University place, New York city when both were kids. The numbers of "How Come" will be booked by Eddie Hunter, and he has let me read a couple of the sequences. They are real knockouts. Will J. Curle range all of Will Marion Cook's music, and we all know that Will Marion Cook Carle also arranged music for the Williams & Walker show and, was conductor of the Cole & Johnson show at Sax. Tony, I saw Garland Howard at new show, "Seven-Eleven," and it is a whirlwind—in numbers. No, I book, full of good, clean laughs; snappy, right up-to-the-minute numbers; beautiful music; and firm. No, I meet. Here are the principals: Garland Howard, Mae Brown, Sam Cook, Speedy Smith, and Ben Brown, Dawn McNeil, and others. Nuf said. Mae Brown looked like a million dollars and was just a little bit taller. She and Howard stopped the show. Even Robinson looked as if she had just stepped out of the Winter Garden. never saw two girls look better in my life than Mac Brown and Exon Robinson. I haven't spawn for the names of the girls, but I have seen them here that Speedy Smith is a comedian that will make anybody laugh, and Sam Cook is a good fill for him. The show, to go to, is to go to Broadway tomorrow, and there were several Broadway managers talking to Garland Howard about planning it down there, so we look out. The show, to go to, is "Which Colbert show will we go to see," Izaa "How Come' or "Seven-Eleven"," just stop and think of it." The man can entertain on Broadway. Will Vulver is also rehearsing another review for the "Planning." More next week. Charles W.

Somehow was an hourlong chorus of eight girls, but not that good singing and fast stepping, and I see no telling workers, and one thing I give them credit for, they can really make up and are nice looking. Then, to top the climax, the "Great Adams," who by no means is connected with the show, was told to be Moyerel, the able stage manager, at rehearsal, wasn't ready; then one of those men, but he was the hit of the bill and probably a lifesaver to the house for the rest of the week. I greatly adored this. For this he obtained 35 per cent. I would like to know who the fellow was in spotlight and not just making on effort to put over a tenor solo. Why these folks bear so much good singing here, it is not because they have no conception whatever of blues. Fifteen per cent. Perhaps the audience was too busy to tell the question of course. I believe these two fellows would do if they had something to do at a disadvantage. No material, the laughs are far apart. For their ability to try with nothing, 75 per cent. of them, I believe they are sisters. In one, doing nothing but an everyday bck dance, and it looked an if they were so dressed in male attire, so they let them go with 75 per cent. To tell you the truth, the names of people you see to find out of course, Boise DeLleges I knew. He entered in two, tooling a fute solo, assisted by a jeep to find out of course, but the girls were all right until some one back stage in the wings attracted to giggle. Some of our girls will never amount to much theatrically as they lack most of all stage deportment however, they, with Boise, clipped 53. This must have been intended for a man who had a net was a Laravel jumper who consumed some time, but after all persevered. He received fair applause, 80 per cent. When it comes to a "harem" show, he was a man who chose. These sort of shows are funny, but this one is built up in a way that is not so obvious. He wouldn't believe it to be a haren anyway, with a parter setting, how he has lots of talent in his company.

I know in hearts that the stage managers throughout the country had been sufficiently educated in our principle that I do not seem that this one is. I am enclosing herewith copy of a letter I have written him. I am much much for calling my attention to the matter. I would like to have you call my attention to any questions I may have in keeping with the ethics and standing of our business. Sincerely yours. Winnipeg, Canada. Dear Sir, Kami in receipt of a company letter, I am writing to you, and I am feeling is a just one. In scheduling the acts, whoever did it, wrote on a piece of paper, whoever did it, different acts. For instance, John & Nellie Olms, special instructor, Enny La Roca, oldtimer, other instructor, Glenn & Nellie Olms, Now, I do not see that there was any decision for you to refer to them, whose videoclips are colored people, and you must know it is repulsive for them to be called "piggers" or to be called a "kike", an Irishman a "tud" or an Italian a "zimny". I am sure you would not refer to them as Irish net men, so they refer to a Color not as "niggers". Why not put them down the same as other people, or not put them on a plaid. I take occasion to write you this liaquemuch as I am interested in all vaudeville, not only in theatrical productions. I am interested in your welfare, in your stage boys' welfare and in the welfare of everyone who earns money from the selling of antiquumism, but one of real interest for all concerned in one business, and these matters, when come up, are of great importance to which we are complained against simply to endeavor to improve conditions in every respect, and to ensure that we do not怨拒 those when we book we have no right to play them. If an artist disrespected you, you should not complain, and I would be only too pleased to write a letter in your behalf, so that the occurrence would not happen against you. I have not called this matter to the attention of the manager, for I feel it is only necessary that you be careful, and will allow that perhaps you did not think when you wrote that.

He was placed in jail and released on bail. In the district are said to have offered as high as $300,000 to get him out of prison. This offer was refused. He was sent to the district on January 5, as a date for a hearing. It was rumored that an effort was to be made to get Burnett a hearing before the state authorities. Attorney General Coco instructed the judge to seriously interfere with the purposes of the state authorities. Attorney General Coco instructed the judge to seriously interfere with the purposes of the state authorities. Trouble in Morehouse parish was precipitated by the election of Dr. B. M. McKin as mayor of Mer Rouge. He was arrested and beheaded of the Ku Klux Klan. He ran on a reform ticket, pledged to clean up the town of certain evil long before strongly to keep his promise. People Get Angry His tactics soon aroused theire of those people against whom they were forced to quarrel, and in their pursuit in the town, bootleggers, gunners and other denizens of the underworld. Most of the crime committed was of the underworld person, but the majority of the gunners, while not a credit to the community, hurt to one any more than they were. Against these interests drove them together. McKoin was known to be backed by the Klan. Some of the good people in the district were unaware of the masked order. As a consequence they were driven on the other side with the other faction. Mer Rouge and anti-Klan. One night the new mayor, a physician, received a call to attend a meeting with the mayor later with holes shot through the back of his automobile. He told people to flare the holes out to lightly spot through a fake call by his enemies and had miraculously escaped death by shouldering the heavy load at high speed had he been able to elude the moth that had sought to amuse him. In the attack on the anti-Klan faction, naming several of his assailants, Daniel and Richards among the number. Masked Mob Kidnaps Not long afterward there was a big celebration in the parish. A huge crowd gathered in the yards and the whites from the country roundabout came. Roads leading to the scene of the festivity were lined with flags and other vehicles. The affair had just ended and the celebrants were driving up the road and crowded roads when a mob of white masked figures swooped down in automobiles and began searching in the street. Swiftly, catching up first one, then another man. In all they took five, and they were running backwards, which the masked kidnappers had driven up, and before anyone had a chance to interfere they were taken away. Three of the men returned. Daniel and Richards, among those taken, never came back. The men who came back were not taken. They were unable to account for the other two men or to tell who had disappeared. They spread in the town that the men who had disappeared had been murdered, their bodies tied to a cart wheel and the men who had disappeared were the local authorities to do anything resulted in the wives of the men appalling the highest authority roundabout. Blame Klan It was easy for most of the people in the town to fasten the guilt on the inhabitants of the town, half the inhabitants of this town are awarded Klimsman, and almost half of those in Mer Rouge. Tension tightens an effort of so-called dealers in disorder and their forced allies to protect themselves against clandestine attacks. In the point that the Klan's enemies felt they must get rid of it, it easily worked up into insurrection of the death penalty at stake. So far the Klan has enjoyed a sort of numerical superiority. That has given it the upper hand in imposing itself upon the parish. It has actually been possible for the authorities to approve the authorized processes, but the Klan is in the communities. It has been possible for it to defy the highest authority. Governor Parker recognized this danger. He could sense the possibility of the order fastening itself on the inhabitants of the town, eventually endangering the peace of the state. A vision of this danger caused him to make a trip to Washington and ask for federal aid to protect U. S. Secret Service United States aid came in the form of secret service agents from the department of justice. These men worked with opioids in Louisiana in running down evidence against the Klan. The Klan itself was aware of the presence of their own espionage system but their own espionage system was sufficient and able enough to protect them against any disclosures the federal and state agents might try to obtain. They were fooled in this respect. The men sent from Washington were dark and some in the open. The men working in the open were supposed to serve as decays for persons eminent in this way the Klanmen were kept away from the activities of the operatives who were working under their command in this method. The Klan boasted that it knew everything the government was doing. Much. Much of the operatives, the telephone operators and the employees in the postal system who were Klan adherents. It was held that these people easily kept the government men off the secret service men. They finally learned their mistake when they found that the government men evidenced on them, including the names of Klanmen employed in the secret service. They were ready to take back their threat that they would do to the government what it was said they had done.

The government is resting on the fact that a dozen arrests will be made before the hearings are begun. Another man has been placed in jail for breaching the deputy sheriff, was arrested. No trace is now obtainable of the original cause of all the trouble, the murder, the disappearance of Daniel and Richards he went away to Monroe, Ala., where he stayed for a short period. Two friends that he was going to study at Johns Hopkins in Baltimore, Md. He is not there now. He has seen the investigators, have shown his story of the attack upon him to be false. They believe he did whatever shooting that was done. McKenna claimed that the men fired at him, and his friends found that a load of shot had been fired through the rear of the car. Some of this shot struck the police officer, and the spokesman. Had McKenna been in the car he would have been struck himself. The fact that he was not injured has been suspected, and that he was not telling the truth. Bury Mob Victims There was a large turnouts out of the citizens of both towns when the military arrived. A rector of the Methodist Episcopal church in Oxford was sent for to offiate at the funeral services, it probably being feared that local ministers were there. Troops were kept on guard for fear of an outbreak. Nothing occurred. Daniel, a World War hero, was given a military salute and buried with his The towns of Mer rouge and Bastrop are small military camps now, and making no secret of it. Bastols and revolvers bulge out from hip pockets. Some weapons are carried in inside the town, and fishmeats rifles and shotguns are kept at handy distances. The people in the town intend of giving in. It is going to be a fight to the finish. There is no middle ground. There are no necuations. The people in the town is Kling or anti-Klan. Only the presence of the soldiers prevents one side of the town from tearing in on children. The children are shedding of blood there would be. Children are not playing in the roads. The women are staying in town. The slightest disturbance in the town is the signal for a near panic. Crowds the women gather one knows what to do. The soldier is the only law in the town. The police officers are powerless and a reason of their affiliations or fear. Business Dull No newspapers have been obtained to train that have passed through. Stores have not done much business, due to the state of mind of the people, because of the lack of jobs, being done by the white people. They are the ones who are hurt now. Daniel and Richardson however, was made the just one of the happened around here. But in the case of these men, they were white citizens. The Daniel family has a history in this section going a long way back. They maintained a plantation in the area, and they have been with them for years. Of course, when something happened to them, it would go to be a great amount of noise. That is just how it has been. Race Will Benefit Although Race men and women have been ignored in events of the past few months dull began in犹豫 the outcome. They have been the ones to suffer most by Klan attacks. Houses have been burned by mobs, churches burned and men and women whipped. They have been the ones to help against all this but to leave the your folks, own; wide by side, are; bare free, 'an talk, where we please, take; up an down, our thorn, you ken; gone. with all right, it too; help us out, or do? your books, wrong; wwee wills' leave, long; high wages do hears! stay down here, we're gone. on after while, late; through an' closed, late; thatare an' see, are; freeze er day, rite dare, de South, drawn; one step de tide an' gone. Intermarriage Ceremony Ends in Battle Royal Philadelphia, Pa., Dec. 29—What should have been the most peaceful sort of celebration resulted after the wedding of Sarah Jones, a face girl, and Michael Bianaccolina, an Italian, started fighting, a person who had badly hurt and a person of others suffered major injuries in a free-for-all battle that interrupted the marriage ceremony. Revolvers, knives and razors were used. No one seemed to know just what started the fight, but the general belief was that "some one had told something." The guests were shocked and some insulting remarks were made. Another call was sent in. Police forced the bride and groom lying on the floor as well as two of the guests. The four were taken to the Howard hospital, where they were revived. Fifteen persons were retained as material witnesses. section. This they have done in large numbers, and they are still going. They cannot all get away, however, and they are caught in the trump, as it were. The action being taken to get justice for the slain white men, if it was Klan, will bring a high measure of peace to their minds and renewed prosperity to the parish. The families were unusually friendly to the Race as Southern whites go. They employed a large number of Race people on their plantations and treated them with kindness to the tomoray in these parts. Some of the old Race women who had lived for years with the Daniels went over the hill to the friendship for the Race, so signal in a small place like this, is thought to have been one of the motives causing the attack members of these families. An interesting feature of the fight now going on, and one that is likely to be the focus of the next week, men and women employed by Klausmen. These men and women are leaving this district. They are run by Klausmen and will find themselves short of the most necessary labor on their plantations and in their business. Klausmen know that is going to enable the forces of law and order to overpower them if the government does not put them out of business first.

Harvey Nye, owner of the skates, declares they have been tired almost every winter since 1867, and he expects to use them this winter. THE CHICAGO DEFENDER KLAN OUTRAGES INCREASE OVER ENTIRE COUNTRY Governors in Many States Are Forced to Extreme Measures Against Growing Menace Ku Klux Klan activity during the past week has made its rumblings heard from New York to Louisiana. The group's organization shows no signs of dying of its own iniquity. North and South are fighting it. It grows in statewide. Mayor Hylan of New York has thrown his whole strength into the tray with a letter written to President Obama, urging the executive to take action against the "Invisible Empire." He also asked for the suppression of the terrorists' weekly "WEEKLY." In his letter to Harding he expressed the belief that the Texas newspaper was owned by Earle May, a former United States Senate by klanism. Texas Denies This belief, put in his message to Harding, put in a speedy denial of the fact that he was a Mayfield, the Houston dispatches informed, was the owner and publisher of the flaming journal of the white collar. This latest action on Hylan's part followed his instructions to the New York city police department to run the investigation of the metropolis, E. W, Rice, one of the head officials of the klan in New York state, announced in Washington, in May, that he had a private wizard, H. W, Evans, that there were 150,000 klansmen in New York city alone. This hooded army a branch of the American Unity league has just been established in the city of Chicago, where the league has led the fight in Illinois and Chicago, exposing klansmen in the Middle West through its ordeal. A compromise is proposed to issue a law on public publication. Felder, accepting the invitation to fight the klan, wrote: "Each and every other organization, who takes an oath of allegiance to an 'invisible government' the purpose of which is to sotom hatred of the Jewish race, to oppress the Jewish race, to oppress the Negro of any other race, is a traitor to this great government under which we live. Kearney, the Methodist themselves in the leading Methodist church there and gave the pastor a letter containing a contribution to his building fund and the assurance that they were his fortune. Chief of Police Walsh of Harrison, N. J. issued instructions to his men to arrest anyone appearing in the church or in the orders to have the sanctity of all such persons determined by physicians. The orders, adopted by the city council, provide for the unmasking of the individuals and 10 days' imprisonment. Allen Meets Wizard Governor Allen of Kansas and W. H. Evans, klan leader, had a sprinkled argument over klan practices when they were brought together by Gutzon Borgium, the sculptor. Allen, who has gone out to get the klan in his state, and who was the only one to side with former Governor Oleutt of Oregon in his stand against the organization at the recent governors' meeting at White Surphur Springs, Va., turned loose all his fireworks on Evans' head until the latter is said to have admitted that it was wrong for his adherents to wear masks. Later he took back this statement and declared that the knights would mask forever. In Louisiana Governor Parker has put into play spectacular measures calculated to destroy klan influence. A company of the state militia has been dispatched to Mer Rouge. The militiamen are stationed along the banks of Lake La Fouche, dragging the lake in search of the bodies of two men, alleged victims of Ku Klux Klan outrages. There are general rumors in the vicinity where the troops are stationed that Nat Daniels and Thomas Richards, who have not been seen since they were kidnapped and horsewhipped, were tied to a wagon wheel and thrown in the lake. Jury Says Deacons Didn't Kill Washington, D. C., Dec. 29.—Last week the grand jury ignored the charge of homicide against Joseph S. Cox, the former commissioner of the Florida Avenue Baptist church. These two had been held by a coroner's jury last January for the death of William Bush, formerly a deacon of the church. It appears that a rather lively meeting of the deacons board took place at the above church last Jan. 16, when Bush gathered Bush endeavored to enter the sacred edifice. In the dispute that took place to restrain him he was struck over the head with a cane. Burke and Jackson, who have been at liberty on bonds of $5,000 since being held by the coroner's jury, are accused but another act in the drama of successive happenings sustaining the present controlling body of the church and the pastor.

ROUT KLANS OR FACE CIVI LWAR GOVERNOR SAYS ICRUSADER SERVICE White Sulphur Springs, Va., Dec. 21—Gov. Ben W. Olcott of Oregon addressing the conference of governors in Washington, the Klan is gaining an amazing grip in his state and other states, and exerting its steps are immediately taken to check the Klan its activities would inevitably lead to a state of civil wuf in the state. Thinking Oregonians are at last awake to what has happened in that state and like himself are genuinely concerned, he pointed out at first failed to regard as a dangerous manifestation, he pointed out not, he explained, that the old Klan with which he was first regarded was due to the belief that it was merely anti-Negro and not subject overshadows all other issues in Oregon, he said, and the consequence of the secret organization's efforts would be brought to national attention. Whole Communities Torn That whole communities in Oregon are now torn by such religious disaffects that neighbors formerly the best of friends are virtual feudists, families are disrupted, the spirit of religious intolerance is seizing upon the churches and business as a controlling factor. The same sort of outrages—comprising white govts and cows—that have swept the Southland have repeatedly occurred in Oregon, so that law and order are under threat. The American fascist as in Louisiana, where Gov. Parker feared for the sovereignty of the state. The state's school system, politics and even certain public channels of expression have become so influenced, and in some instances controlled, that the law and of former religious relationships have law and order are completely undermined. That Portland has become a hotbed of the Klan propaganda, which has been spread with characteristic secrecy and in the guise of a patroltie and benevolent movement, and that the state has become into the state of Washington, predicting openly that they will soon have lined up that and other Northwestern settlers' fidelity and the territory of Alaska. Protestant Vs. Catholic "We have no accurate way of knowing how large numerically the Klan has become in Oregon, said James H. McCarthy, who are significant of its extent and its power. We have few Negroes and few Jews in the state, comparatively down to one between Protestantism and Catholicism. "To be sure, one Negro who was freed from fall after service in the Civil War, victimized—taken at night by masked riders and hanged, though cut down before he was dead." Color Peril Big Issue in Canada Victoria, B. C, Dec. 25. The mooted "color question" has crossed the northern boundary of the United States and has become a question to shake the dominion to its very roots. Emulating the example set by California, the Canadian government came out fatly last week for the first time in Canada, asserting that no other measure would keep the West white. Mr. Sioan said that the influx of Orientalists into the West was not a cause for the whole of Canada, and Canada, he emphasized, had the right to deal with it as she saw it.ft. The whole of the legislature by Mr. Sioan showed that Japanese were gaining control of Western fisheries while Chinese were gradualizing. In 1820, he said, 5,492 Japanese fishermen were at work in British Columbia, and one in every 13 children born in the province in 1820 was Japanese, 5,492 were in Vancouver in 1920, he said, more than 171 had been granted to Orientalists, and half the Vancouver residents sixty per cent of the merchant tailors in Vancouver were Orientalists, he added, and in fact Japanese and Chinese licenses there. Similar conditions, he pointed out, prevailed in Victoria. FOR 54 YEARS EXPLODES Oceans are vast, and about 57 years in which time it served as an andron and was used in shot-putt exercises and for other purpureous activities, later littered for use in the civil war exploded wrecking a tenement house on the plantation of A. E. Browne. It was serving as an andron when it exploded, no one being in the house at the time. The house was wrecked and burned. Teaching the science of navigation and aeronautics to black boys as well FROWN ON "NEW WAY" TO SHAME U.S. LYNCHERS New York, Dec. 29.—Proposal by Republican senators to institute a commission for the purpose of investigation into the case has elicited a sharp letter to Senator Frelinghuysen, author of the resolution, from James Weldon Johnson, president of the Senate for the Advancement of Colored People, in which notice is served that a substitute for the Dyer anti-lychning bill will not be acceptable to our Facts Are Known Mr. Johnson's letter asserts that the American government is acting American abroad throughout the world; that a commission to "inform the nation of the need for a plan to delay action and to "fulfill the nation and the Negro with false information." The letter in full is as follows: "I have carefully examined your proposed joint resolution establishing a general inquiry into the subject of lynchings in the United States, including the one occurring thereafter," he said. "We would interpose no active opposition to any steps leading toward a general inquiry into the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in this case as in a half dozen shorter proposals in the past year, whatsoever for such a commission, nor can we indorse the proposed measure as a bill. Such a commission would bill. Such a commission as you propose could gather only statistics and facts such as have already been presented by the agencies and which have been repeatedly and at great length read into the Congressional proceedings applicable to the United States Senate as well as to other citizens. Have No Effect The essential facts in regard to lynching are well known and undisputed. The gathering of such facts necessitates an appreciable effect upon the question. We would, therefore, view this commission plan, with its intention to further delay to the one thing we believe to be essential in the circumstances, and that is legislation giving us the power to state fail, as they have failed in the past 35 years, to secure to persons accused of crime trial by due process to execute and punish members of mobs. This commission plan, therefore, seems calculated only to delay action and motion, and the Negro with false hopes. The National Association for the Advancement of Colored People will continue its mission to investigate lynching. Rather, we insist upon a revision of the Senate's rules of procedure and passage of the Dyer anti-lynchings bill. McCormick's Bill Senator Medill Mormickel of Billinois had a similar measure before the 2012 elections, vetoing and committee action on the Dyer bill. His bill authorized the appointment of both cohesive and five investigators of both cohesive and five investigations on mob violence. Plan Parks After Fire in Newbern Newborn, N. C., Dec. 29.—More far-reaching than any step taken for the reconstruction of the burned area of this city was the adoption by the board of aldermen of resolutions carrying recommendations that the city acquire over 20 blocks of the area for a public park, and Colored cineraries and the provision of a public park. The sections affected by the plans of the board of aldermen include construction practically separated the Riverside extension from the city proper and left approach to the former possible acquired this property the city will-open up streets, widen half a dozen narrow alleys and extend a dozen streets to acquire this property the city will-conform with the original plan. While it may not be possible for the city to hold permanently the title of a public park, the projects to acquire, it is certain to retain that partition selected for a park and enough of that sought for cemetery extension to gain end in the city. The vated land in the city has been selected for the park, and once this has been established there is little problem to release it for any other purpose. The question of legality came up. The law was promptly allayed any fears of legal trouble. The fact that the acquisition of the land in question would be for sale promptly allayed any fears of legal ground for taking it over. However, action will be taken in time to test the law. The law will generally assembly convenes and if necessary this body will be appealed to for legislation that will allow the property in the proper way. RUSSIANS USE COATS' MILK FOR MOONSHINE Astrakhan—Home made boocht isn't peculiar to dry America. Down south, Pearl River Valley, where there are population laws, there can be found moonshine made from goats' milk that is as potent as now corn whisky. The other way is living like patrons in the time of Abraham, have long been fond of strong liquor. Now, although the church has been a fierce enemy, their herds decimated and their riches dispersed, the old thirst still persists in spite of revolution and in spite of prohibition laws. It will manage to satisfy it. Leading a nomadic life on the steps along the lower reaches of the Volga, pitching their bows and arrows, they move on to greener fields as the old ones dry up, the Kalmucks are not particularly easy prey to revenge. Their skin consists of three kettles, in one of which they place the sour milk which is already fermented in a bain pipe which is carried over the stream, and is water jacketed in the third. The drink which is prepared from the distilled milk is said to have the flavour of black and a flavor which is all its own.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1922 TURKS RULE TO SUPPRESS BIBLE OF WHITE RACE Religious Censorship to Be Established Where Dark Races Dictate Law [CRUSADER SERVICE] Constantinople, Dec. 29. - The abolition of shocks and the separation of the sultanate from the caliphate are not isolated measures. They are part of sweeping religious reforms that are being carried out by the Angora and the Kurdish Islam and laying the groundwork for an immense, world-wide struggle against white domination of the sacred races and the Moslem peoples. Strict Censorship Under the new Nationalist constitution all matters concerning religion are strictly under the control of the "sherjyoh vekultei" or commissariat for religious affairs. It has now created two organizations which are likely to have great influence in the development of Islam in the country, and favors invants for investigation of religious books and the ufa commission. The former will disseminate information about friendly relations between the Islamic nations, publish books likely to prove useful to Moslem readers and communicate to the head of this commission has just been appointed. He is the Egyptian spiritual leader. The ufa commission is less an advisory than an executive body. It will make a study of world events affecting Islam. It will work for the spread of the Mohammedan religion. It will also have the exclusive name as ufa means the plural of fetva). Hitherto the fetva was signed by the Sheikh Ul Islam and the Fetva Leaders to Confer The grand national assembly also is convening a Pan-Islamic congress, before peace has been signed, invitations already have been sent to religious leaders in all Moslem states.

HYLAN'S POLICE GET FEW FACTS ABOUT THE KLAN New York Cops Accomplish Little Save to Advertise Klux in Metropolis New York, Dec. 25.—Ku Klux Klan organizers and leaders in New York City have had and are having the benefit of publicity which millions of dollars could not have bought out, and of it. They are capitalizing the surplus of officials of the city administration and of the courts, and they are attacking the justice at the fatuous manner in which the mayor, the police and a judge are attempting to show them away. They are able to think of to stop the operations of the Ku Klux Klan hurt purveyors is his instruction to Police Commissioner Kluxers the same illegal terrorist methods which are part of the Klan's order the police to abuse the Klan organizers out of the city. All that Judge Mancuso, who has been Kluxan activities here, has been able to do is to repeat the same sort of "law and order" oratory which he has to dig up a law which makes it merely a misdemeanor for three or more persons to assemble "disguised by face paintings, discolored or concealed." All that the police have done, as this is written, is to supply the clan with a grand jury, with a list of $80 alleged members of the Klan here, together with a list of $100 official organ published in Atlanta. Government and local detectives for a long time have boasted that they have done and planned by community and other radical groups here and elsewhere. Occcurred to the authorities to use the same methods against the Ku Klux Klan nothing has come of. They feel they cannot spare any of their sleuths lest the communists grab the clan and do away with racial discriminations and prejudices that have so well served the masters by dividing the Klan. In the meantime the local Klan is effectively capitalizing the stupidity of criminals and is said to be $100,000 strong.

The game was a thriller from beginning to end, with both teams doing excellent offensive and defensive work. Laurie Butler and Grant were the outstanding stars for the home aggregation, while Skinker and Pollitt did the best work for the visitors. The first half ended in a tie, 11 all Lincoln drew first blood when Skinker ejected a basket. Fred Laurie scored the first point for the home boys when he made one out of two free throws. Pollitt brought the crowd to their feet when he made good en a long shot, sending Lincoln's score up to 4. At this stage of the game the Lincoln boys were importantly outplaying the Defenders because of the fact that Butler was at center in place of "Stretch" Grant, who arrived late. The rest period and Grant's arrival put new life into the local boys. In the first five minutes of play they took a 6-point lead, Lincoln was held to two field goals, while Butler, Grant and Laurie accounted for two baskets each in this half. Only a small crowd witnessed the game, John C. Smith's jazz orchestra for the music. The line-up: Defenders H. P. Kline I. P. Kline Lincoln Lambert S. F. Kline Sounder 1 I. P. Kline Pointill 2 I. P.

THE "COLOR" FOLLY [London (Eng.) Daily Express, Nov. 10, 1922] The home office in their wisdom hid the door behind the desk and Battling Sikl, arranged for Dec. 7 at the Royal Albert hall. There might have been some force in the door, but the ringside in Paris on Wednesday night made it undesirable that he should enter a boxing ring in this room. It would still be necessary to know much more fully and accurately the exact circumstances of the abduction. This, however, is not the argument of the home office. The personality and conduct of Sikl are outside the door. They stand on the color question. They ban this fight on the ground that contests between black men and white men. They call to their aid the similar ban placed on the Johnson-Wells fight in 1911—forgetting that on this occasion the grounds of illegality. It seems to us that this belated attempt to stop a glove fight between a black man and white is both ridiculous and foolish. Does the home office seriously suppose that the Colored races of the United States are genuinely exalted notion of their superiority if Sikit were to knock out Beckett's predominance of the white races, which has, as a matter of fact, been illustrated throughout the history of the United States on Mr. Beckett's four-ounce gloves, then it would indeed be time to roll up the map of the color question. We have been told by Beckett, and Amerien, which has more reason for susceptibility on the color question, that the fresh evidence of that passion for tinkering and interfering with individual liberty which has made Mr. Bridgeman, the new home secretary, seems determined to model himself on the crusis stupidity which has too often distinguished the home office. We counsel him to think better about his policy. The people are tired of it.

Charles Doneghy of Danville, Ky., who has been a star player throughout the 1922 season, was elected to lead Howard's 1923 football eleven. Letters were awarded to the following men: M. Molson, L.

FOR SILVER FOOTBALLS The department of physical education of one of the largest institutions of one of the countries has set an example which I will follow, and will wise for some of our universities and colleges to follow. The department that has a tendency to encourage men who come out for the football eleven, those who have fought day after day in the football eleven, to win a place on the varsity eleven themselves, but to make the varsity eleven fit to face their opponents. To duty performed must be lived up to before a letter is given, and some of these rules work a hardship on the players.

Ask Paris, Dec. 29.—A close study of the film of the Carpenter-Skift fight in New York, the manager of the French boxer, went to Skift's corner in the fourth round and said something to Hellers, the Seneca native, according to a story printed by LaAuto.

The jaws of the jaw trick. Up to that period Pierson had taken an artistic pasting, and was caught in a surprise to the fans because of the fact that the beaten man apparently showed that he was in unusual distress prior to the killing. The semi-final saw Young Kid Norfolk knock out Sammie Marceo in the second round, and another eight-rounder Tommy Jackson was awarded the judges' decision over him. He was the only player he hurt either boy. The preliminaries were excellent, as usual. ACADEMY GIRLS LOSE Jersey City, N. J.

PHILLIPS HI STILL WINNING The Phillips high school basket ball fives-won from McKinley on the Phillips floor and from the Crane tech on the floor of the Hebrew institute last SATURDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1922 NORFOLK HANDS LEE ANDERSON GOOD BEATING Loser Starts Off Well, But Can't Stand Up to the Kid's Licks Boston, Mass., Dec. 23—Lee Anderson of Boston and Los Angeles trained his son to be a cheerful nature and ability to take punishment at the Mechanics building. Boston, his showing, the first three rounds made in a few others, that's about all of a cheerful nature that can be said for Lee. He bout going the entire distance of 10 rounds, the award belonged to him, summing up the defense. Kyra light heavy had about six more or less in boxing and out-punching the former Berthier, 11, man. Anderson has done considerable training, did not appear in his bout, but he shaped, Kyra, and the bout was not as good as the former clash be- For the first three rounds Lee was in high and went well. He slammed some terrific swings and hooks, notably with his port battery, to Norfolk's jaw, shaking that ringster to his heels. In the last round he was in a block, but the regular Lee was mostly the big works. He carried the fighting to Norfolk practically throughout, once actually having him on the run. At times a knockout in favor of Anderson seemed a very likely probability. But while these three rounds and the second and third with emphasis were about all Anderson, Norfolk was not completely out of the fighting. Though driven back, he never entirely had a chance to win the battle, but the times met Lee's rush with a right hand slam to the body that buried his digit in the Bostonian's works. By the end of the third, these punches coupled with Anderson's own exertions, had told the first story. When the game out of the fourth he was tired, failed to save himself from a lot of body punishment, and in his wild swinging opened himself for more. It was noticeable that many of his blows were merely slaps with the open field. In return, Norfolk, well aware that the tide had turned, began to pick his spots like a billardist and seldom failed to land where he aimed, mostly to the body. In the fourth round, fifth, sixth, seventh and eighth. These were very similar. Lee did some wild punching, considerable clinching and little damage. In return he received a walloping to the midriff and ribs that would have caved in a less game feel Makes Dying Rally The ninth saw Anderson make a big polish in the outback to turn the idle. He managed to get the point but was his last real effort. Norfolk had both men were considerably hanged in the faint in the back. The forehead over the left eye when the men brought their heads together was a comedy affair between "Wildman" and "The New York introduced the main bout.

It had "Pickles" for a dumped him on the canvas for five. He did well to out the right arm and now could accept the award.

A gold football is accepted with pride by the lucky few. But how about the other members of the squad whose names do not appear with the 12 to 18 men who receive them? The school in question through the physical department gave silver footballs to the members of the squad who were not eligible to receive the ball, and the chances for making the varsity eleven were never bright, but who came out day after day in the rain on the field? The varsity had to hand them and helped as best they could to condition their fellow students for the game. They didn't quit. They stuck it out—so why year after year forget them? Certainly football pays, pays enough money that those who help pay might at least be remembered. rangel to allow himself to be beaten. Vice President Boulariat of the boxing federation in an in line meeting with the manager one boxer to talk to the manager of another while a bout was in progress constituted a very serious fault. The journal adds that as the federations' investigating committee has seen the film, it no doubt will draw its own conclusions. MOREHOUSE LOSES 4 VARSITY FOOTBALLERS BY GRADUATION Atlanta, Go., Dec. 29.—The names of the men who won the coveted block "M" during the 1922 football season were made known when Coach Harvey and Manager Winters announced the following men eligible to vote for captain for the season of 1923: Caesar Gayler, Charles Kelly, Lewis O. Harper, Lycorgus Gentry, J. W. Maxwell, N. D. Coske, William Howard, L. W. Win, L. M. Jordan, T. R. Starr, A. Williams, J. C. Walker and C. R. Perkins. C. Kelly, veteran of three seasons, and All-Southern halfback, was chosen captain. L. Irwin, All-Southern and All-American tackle, was elected alternate captain. Only four lettermen, Lycorgus Gentry, halfback; J. W. Maxwell, fullback; C. R. Perkins, fullback, and L. O. Harper, quarterback, graduate this year. With a veteran line-up intact and two experienced backfield men, the prospects for another championship team at Morchouse college in 1923 are encouraging. In addition the entire second team, whose members participated in five games during the season, will return intact. Much credit for the past successful season should be given to these men who were just below the varsity caliber, but by their good work kept the varsity on edge during practice and gave them added rest during the games. The varsity "M" and probably sweaters will be awarded to the above named men at the annual "M" club banquet, during commencement week, together with those for basket ball and track for the present college year. The football schedule for 1923 is rapidly nearing completion and will be announced in the near future. The opponents likely to appear for 1923 are: Livingstone, Knoxville, Tenn.; State A. & I.; Virginia Union, Alabama State Normal, Morris-Brown, Talladega, Filk and Tuskegee.

THERE IS NO BETTER ADVERTISING MEDIUM IN THE WORLD SATURDAY, DECEMBER 38, 1922 OPENS GUNS IN DRIVE FOR SEAT IN CITY COUNCIL By BOGER DIDIER "For men may come and men may go, but I go on forever." Terror and despair were spread in the streets and palm politicians of the Second ward Friday night when Jungleton Green, brilliant. Chicago brilliant. Chicago score of years and prominent clubman, announced date for the city council. The announcer, national letter to Mr. Green's close Rankin, who had written the attorney concerning rumors of his prosecution. billion of Chicago attorney for a score of years and a criminal man, announced himself as candidate for the Green's close council. The announcement was made in a person who wrote and written the attorney concerning rumors of his prosecution. As soon as the report of Mr. Green's decision was made public, he was the telephone calls from his many friends of both races in all parts of the city. Already the wives have got busy warding off the many cases of Green may mean so far as Second ward politics and vice conditions are being cut off, known to have his entire long period of lawyer before the Chicago bar he has steadily refused to align himself with the current contender entrenched in politics in any way. Enemy of Vice Some persons have pointed to speeches made by Mr. Green, one early Republican convention in 1929. In both these addresses the eminent attorney made heated reference to the movie he moved to watch at the 1929 meeting as he described how such things hurt him. The speeches have convinced some people that he intends to knock the wind out of the district's graffitag. Mr. Green was seen by a reporter of the Chicago Defender directly after Mr. Runkin had received his letter. He was easier to confirm the report than he was to pleasen to vice. He thought it was just something awful that all the gambling, all the disorderly houses, all the dirt, and other things too numerous to dump into his neighborhood. He said he did not know what he could people to know he was going to fight it with all his might. He declares he is with no faction, will run on a all decent people, want all decent people and others too. He did not deny that he would co-operate to the best of his ability, with the best of his people, the best force, who has a big list of vice lord names; Samuel Thrasher, who put the title Cannon on the ham, and Arthur the well-known, ancient enemy of wickedness. Expenses of Campaign Expenses for Mr. Green's campaign will be borne largely by Miss Maggie O'Brien, her performance worker and millionaire heroes. The new candidate drinks no more than 100 ounces of water, and she has endured him to Miss O'Brownie. Rumor had it several years ago that the two were convinced any such thing, explaining that their relations were purely of a business nature outside of an occasional denied any such thing, explaining that she send the female prohibitionist. Miss O'Brownie, she scheduled to read the book on the day of the week. She will be sure to line up the women's vote. Defender wishes to state that it stands four-square behind the candidacy of such a man as Miss O'Brownie, and ambition as other candidates, will fight just as hard to reach them, and are proud to state—has less capacity for harm.

Sea Travelers Lose Taste for Liquor Aboard Vessels Prohibition may not be an unqualified success in this country, but it has been a successful effort in drinking habit, says a special writer in the Chicago Daily News. This announcement does not come from the prohibition ranks, but from the American public, a candle marine, who travels constantly back and forth across the Atlantic and hence has access to the ocean, producing of this suspecting fellow citizens when they are suddenly freed from all dry restrictions on board the big ocean ship. "They drink, of course," he admitted, in discussing the peculiarities of passengers, "but it isn't us it used to be. We had to drink throughout the day, cocktails before meals and Biquors afterward. The British mariner in this country forged up for lost time the minute he gets beyond the three-mile limit, but most Americans, although perhaps intend to do the same thing, forget to keep it up." Germany Attracts Few Thus, the pursuit of favorite drinks plays but an insignificant part in the rush of Americans to come to some extent for the large number of returning Italians, who have been deprived of their beloved chilini in this country, to seek the best opportunities for the best opportunities for satisfying any point up to this. Germany, for instance, has the lowest possible cost, will probably receive the fewest visitors, while Norway, which has reached about the United States, is quirking hosts of Americans. For the first time since the war Europe, compelling charm for sightseers, hundreds booked for extensive continental tours, are leaving on every ship, so that the seamless company is compelled charm for sightseers, prosperous season. So far second-class travel is not quite up to the prewar standard. Fewer school teachers are leaving on every ship, and more are overseas. The number of steerage passengers is also decreased, but the demand for first-class accommodations is made long in advance. Voyaging de Luxe Our newly rich who delight in opportunities for extravagance and our prosperous families for homestead for another look at the old country, are not to be deterred by the high prices demanded for stationary furniture, but their sales sell as easily as the $200 accommodations. The other day, one suite was sold to a wealthy American for $5,000. Others rather an exorbitant sum to pay for one week of ocean travel, but the L. M. M. official assures us that the profit on these expensive accommodations is expected. For one thing, they are usually occupied by individuals who require an extraordinary amount of people who are accustomed to their personal occultities humored. There is one wealthy American, for example, who cannot travel across the ocean for a proffessor room. Another always takes a pet bea constrictor with him. Still another remains in his stateroom for a voyage, while his valet sits just outside his door and plays upon bagpipes. The big ocean lines, which are the fastest marine engineering and luxurious interiors, represent large investments, and they are expensive Observations of the Lien Note-Holder I guess by the looks of things around here that I shall get this farm all right. It is only a question of how hard the farmer does not seem to feel particularly worried about my taking possession here, says a writer in Success. Here he scarcely begin his spring work. When he gets up in the morning I hear him say, "Well, I guess this is a pretty good day to go out in the woods and go out in the woods and do a little shooting. The ground is not in very good condition yet and we are likely to have to wait until the weather gets settled." When looking into the corn crib the other day I heard him say he didn't believe it was going to be much of a corn anyway. It had to be last winter he only got enough wheat to carry him along for the time. He doesn't seem to have any idea of getting thirsty going to the barn just waits for the last minute. He had lots of time during the winter to fix up his farm tools and get them in good shape of that he just slides along, drifts. I notice his plow still has a broken handle, and his cart is wagging. I see him carrying it in an ill-adapted condition. Of course, these things only make me laugh. Every time he puts his window down and old hat is rag are stuffed in I say to myself, "This means another victory for me," and the time of the house and old hat has gone. I take his farm away from him after all these years, but the man hasn't left him. He just helps him help him. He just lets everything drift and slide along the line of least resistance. It is now getting ready to go to the village, up his harness with a broken trace. He never fixes it. He just does it, and done "just for now." If he breaks a cart or a farm implement or anything he says to his hired man, "Well, we will just fix that up for the min- COUNTRY? YES BUT DON'T FARM Recent statistics sent out by the census authorities show that the farm is the largest employer in 31,614,246, a little less than 30 per cent of the total. It comprises the operators and farm laborers and their families who live in the country, and shows an average of about five persons to each farm. About half the people in the nation are classified as rural—that is, they live in the countryside, and fewer than 2,500 inhabitants, but only 61 per cent of the "rurals" are actually engaged in farming. Colored policewomen should be a part of the civilian city—one or two not enough. - DEFENDER WANT ADS to operate. It costs $1,500, for instance, to serve a single meal for all the passengers on one meal for three boats. The total operating cost is $1,000,000. And the steerage, which formerly produced a large part of this revenue, now brings in very little. Some ships, with a capacity for $250 steerage passengers, have steerage in the form of plains, said the L.M. M. official, "why first-class rates can't come down." Expense Compared to Rail Rates Even so, ocean travel is almost as cheap an rail travel in the States. At least, the $250 cents a mile, first class, for the 3,000-mile journey across the Atlantic on the train, is about as cheap as sleeping accommodations. There is a slight fluctuation in rates, depending upon the type of train, well as upon the season of the year. For instance, the minimum rate on a de luxe ship-departing from New York (or crossing from New York to Cherbourg or Southampton, is about $275 per day, in the height of the season. But alluring as these ships are, with their Turkish baths, gymnasiums, restaurants upon their upper decks, it is not necessary. The ballrooms and Parisian restaurants upon their upper decks, it is not necessary. Cheaper accommodations, equally as comfortable, it not so luxurious, can be obtained on the Liverpool or the vessels which make Auturp in nine days. There are also cabin class ships which cross in eight or eleven days to Hamburg. These last are steady, stanch boats, ranging from seven to eleven days and give excellent service. They are very popular with old transatlantic travelers, more than the average cabin-class rate, which is now $125. There is one regular traveler on these boats and takes his spats and takes his vial with him. Vacation Costs Low With the American dollar at its present high rate of exchange value, Europe is about the cheapest part of the world to spend a vacation. Railroad travel on the continent averages about 2 cents a mile—sometimes less than that. Taxi fares range from 15 cents to 20 cents, and airline fares into the country seldom cost more than a dollar. Living also is much cheaper than it is at home. This is not so apparent in the New York and Paris prices. But in the smaller English and French lns, which are most desirable because of their quiet atmosphere, one can obtain comfortable accommodations for about the equivalent of $2 a night. All European nations are now putting forth great efforts to attract the tourist trade. England especially, has been a major tourist toward visitors in the past, is proving unusually cordial this summer. Perhaps the recent revival of inneckling in the British capital will become a major occupation among visitors, has something to do with this. Even Germany is exhibiting great hospitality toward Americans and the immigrants, and it is also depreciation of the mark. An American with a small income can now live comfortably there on an amount of money that is not enough home—but not quite so comfortably as a German citizen could live on the same sum. For there is one handheld camera that is very useful. It is difficult to conceal the fact from the continental shopkeepers, who usually have two sets of prices—one for Americans and one for the natives. Professional Men of Race Get Praise No one interested in the development and progress of the Race could look upon the large assemblage of professional Race men and women at the 27th annual convention of the National Medical association in Washington, D.C., for the feeling of satisfaction that before him was a group of people that is gradually and assuredly making a place for itself in the professional profession. Among the leading physicians, dentists and pharmacists of the Race. Among the physicians, heides general practice and those who are devoting themselves to specialties of surgery, diseases of the eye, ear, nose and throat, gastrointestinal diseases, diagnostic, X-ray technic and laboratory work; in fact, the assemblage represented a group qualified to affect its people. As recently as 15 years ago, the medical men of the Race who could demonstrate to the association a success in their profession would have exception. Today there are many who can do so with credit to themselves, the organization, and the Race. At every meeting the organization and all the features are given. At all of the meetings clinics are hold in medicine, surgery, dentistry and pharmacy, during which clinical demonstrations peculiar to the Race are given by its own members.

The electorate is overwhelmingly of the Race, and with the support of the councilors are members of the Race. The drastic vote was occasioned by the action of the governor in granting the nomination of a pointed director of rulings, an honorarium of £1,700 without the consent of the council, which act is a clear violation of the constitution of the island by Lord Derby in 1881. The situation was aggravated when the colonial secretary, Col. H. H. Lowe, the people by outlining to read to the council the communications hearing on the matter that passed between the people and the secretary of state for the colonies, Winston Churchill. This chimney piece of trickery was discovered by the legislators, led by Barrister J. A. G. Smith, H. A. L. Simpson, D. I. G. Smith, and undaunted courage these men treated "his excellency," the representative of the king, to severe dialectical cultivation, the community by beking himself to some place where his talent for dishonest methods might have been used. Race question was raised, still it is easy to realize that the denunciation of the colonial secretary and Major Lowe is lately from South Africa, was due to their contemptuous attitude to contact with Africans, these men have sought to treat Jamaicans with the supercilious and irresponsible methods that have characterized circulation in that unfortunate continent.

The Appointment of a Member of the Race to the President's Cabinet. THE OLD YEAR we's nothing to this modern, way of celebrate New Year's Day ribaldary and blatant song; the whole blaze scheme of it is wrong. the year is your full praise when it has its course of days brought its blessings or its woes. But what New Year holds, who knows? if how quickly we forget; the dying year lee few even wet; if we'd come and yet it brought us safely a roadway fought in smears and pitfalls which held fast upon I way the souls we passed. so on January first 'tis well to let the songs burst in thankful lips be for our friend, the year just came to an end. From thankful lips be for our friend, the year that just came to an end. THE NEW YEAR SHALL WE SEEK the fortune teller or just guess what the next twelve months have in store for us? Whichever we elect to do, the result will be about the same. As hope is the one thing which springs eternal in the human breast, we mortals are life-forgetting, purposely that thorns are the companions of roses, forgetting that it takes the shadows to make us appropriate the sunshine. We live today—tomorrow, who knows? So there is no need to pay a palmist your dollar. No use of paying mediums for the secret. Now notice of buying it from a fortune teller; the book is even more of a fortune teller. BUT EVEN THOUGH the gift is not ours to peer into the future, it is within our province to plan for the future and base our plans on what has transpired in the years past and gone. If we had not this been life would indeed be dull and meaningless. So the Defender, in keeping with other large groups, has been in the way of the 1923, things that have been made possible only by the loyal and continued support of the readers. IT HAS BEEN our aim to publish a clean, news, entertaining, instructive and well edited newspaper, worthy of the slogan "The World's Greatest News Press." The Journal of the English-speaking public will have done this. There have been in the past, and there will be in the future, departments of unusual interest to each and every member of the family. In addition to our regular staff of writers, arrangements have been made with writers, men and women, whose names and works are familiar with them. The English-speaking public will have done this. We have been in the world. New departments, new features, more funny strips, fashion plates for the fair sex, additional sports for the men folks, cute cutouts for the kiddies. All of which means a bigger and a better paper for our million readers in 1923. WE STARTED NOW, we get sidetracked on the same old thing, the newspaper; but you can't blame us much. It IS a big thing; we're proud of it, like to talk about it, and are tickled because we are one of the cogs in this wonderful place of machinery. But back to this Happy New Year business. You know every one has you, I wonder? You can't afford, and we wish it didn't hard, too. FALLING IN LINE MAYOR WILLIAM HALE THOMPSON is able to succeed himself. Although he is unify surrounded by a few fool friends whose support damaging than beneficial, he is unquestioned of the best chief executives Chicago has ever faced he may have his faults in virtuosity. He may have his faults in every act before or whose every utterance we approve. Before sincerely hope that conditions will be made his re-election possible. OME THINGS have recently occurred which impel him to propose new constitution. Regardless of his or demersals of that instrument, it cannot be that Mayor Thompson and his organization initiative in working up sentiment against it. MAYOR WILLIAM HALE THOMPSON is a candidate to succeed himself. Although he is unfortunately surrounded by a few fool friends whose support is more damaging than beneficial, he is unquestionably one of the best chief executives Chicago has ever surpassed. The man does not live whose every act indorse or whose every utterance we approve. We therefore sincerely hope that conditions will be such to make his re-election possible. SOME THINGS have recently occurred which point to the need for a new constitution, for instance, of the proposed new constitution. Regardless of the merits or demurals of that instrument, it cannot be denied that Mayor Thompson and his organization took the initiative in working up sentiment against it, not only in Cook county but throughout the state. Thousands of others subsequently fell into line, they merely followers and not leaders in this movement. THE MOST remarkable development in this connection grows out of the fact that the mayor was able to whip into line and secure the support and following of some of his bittest foes and antagonists, and he had from the start the support of one, but the other remained on the fence until it was on which side popular sentiment was—then it reluctantly fell in line behind the leadership of the mayor, to whom it is supposed to be bitterly opposed on general principles. This involves acting those who thus followed the leadership of the mayor, the result cannot be otherwise than a boost of his candidacy to succeed himself. If the mayor should be successful it will be due largely to this result. Is not the first time the mayor has received support from the last time this same journal contributed to his success, without perhaps, intending to do so. The only candidate by whom it was possible for Mr. Thompson to be defeated was Robert M. Swetzer, a Democrat. This journal vigorously supported the independent candidacy of Maclay Hayne, which divided the opposition and thereby contributed to the mayor's IT WAS POINTED OUT at the time that this course would help rather than hurt the mayor. We do not assert and do not believe that the journal in question intended to help the mayor, but to say that its editorial writers did not know or could not see the effect of the course they pursued is an implied reflection upon their intelligence and their political signality. For the mayor's sake and for the good of Chicago, we hope it will pursue a similar course in the spring elections. It has already made an excellent beginning in falling behind the leadership of the mayor in the recent election on the new constitution. DEMOCRATS are thinking about discarding the mule as a symbol. What's the matter? Has the mule been kicking? THE VOTE in the Senate will show who our friends are. This is a mighty good thing to know on next election day. UP TO DATE we have had what they call an open winter. With coal prices almost beyond reach, we will be the last to complain. OF COURSE it Santa Claus didn't bring you all the things you wanted there is consolation in the fact that there are others in the same boat. THE WETS are doing their best to keep dust from settling on the drya. EVIDENTLY the people were decidedly not in favor of a new constitution for the state of Illinois. CHICAGO DEFENDER OUR WEEKLY SERMON [This space is devoted to the use of ministers throughout the country who desire to send a message to our readers. The word "sermon" would be best without official notice.] "ALL" MEANS EVERYTHING. There is no other word in our vocabulary that can mean all. Bread is the staff of life, but it isn't all. We must have water, too. The almighty dollar is making the earth quake, but money isn't everything. Man may maintain a fine life, but the man have other things, or pass away as any other trumpet. Some time ago we heard an eminent divine criticize the good old hymn, "You May Have All the World, but Give Me Jesus." This pastor was wrong, for if Christ is all, it is true wisdom to take Him. This world and all of the best things in it are promised to those who follow Christ. He was young, but now an old, and yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging, says David. All who wish spiritual power must learn this secret: "Christ is all." Some time ago an old Christian stood up in one of our meetings and said: "I have been thirty years learning the secret of God." Then he said: "I and God." The second fifteen I said, God and I, but found out that something was still wrong. So after thirty years I learned the secret. It is: "Just God." In exact proportion as we mix self or anything else in divine work we fall. When God commissioned men to work in the earth Him. The secret of power in the work of Christ is to have no merit of our own. Anything outside of Christ that we depend on ruins all.

As long as the country and sanction American citizen of what state he lives does not put on the constitutional laws of the contrary notwithstanding state instead of the United the allegiance of the citizen to the national government upon which the doctrines MISSISIPPII is running true to form. Three white men have been awarded $400 each for being compelled to ride in a passenger coach with Negroes. So far as Mississippi is concerned there is nothing new in this, because that state is the mother of the Civil War and it is not easy to invest a scheme to evade the Fifteenth Amendment to the Federal Constitution by which Colored citizens could be excluded from the ballot box. It was also the first state in the Union to pass a "Jim Crow" car law. The railroads in the state bitterly fought this law, chiefly on account of the additional expense required to separate coaches for the two races. The law in its original form provided for EQUAL but separate accommodations. SUCH A PROVISION was physically and financially impossible to comply with. The roads not only fought it through the courts but carried it to the Supreme court of the United States, contending that the law was not necessary to separate coaches for the Federal Constitution. But that tribunal, unfortunately, through a decision rendered and handed down by the late Justice Brewer affirmed the constitutionality of the law. Hence "Jim Crow carism" is not only the law and rule in Missisippii but in all other states where the legislature has seen fit to enact such laws. THE POINT upon which the decision was based was that so long as the accommodations were not feasible, the abridgment of one's civil rights. But since equal separate accommodations are not feasible, unequal accommodations have been and are the result. Whether or not even this decision applies to interstate passengers is still an undecided question. The probabilities are that the law will be passed and that the humain with reference to interstate passengers a favorable decision might possibly be rendered. A FAVORABLE DECISION might also be obtained with reference to intrastate travel if the fact could be brought out and made clear that the present separate accommodations are not of interest. This is an important doctrine of state's rights. As long as this doctrine is tolerated by the country and sanctioned by popular sentiment, no American citizen of whatever color or nationality can enjoy any right or privilege which would be inconsistent with anything in the constitutional laws of the United States to the contrary notwithstanding. In other words, the state instead of the United States is supreme, and the allegiance of the citizen is to his state first and to the national government afterward, in order upon which the doctrine of secession was founded. ENSLAVED WHITES IFS may be dens of vice, i.e. traps to drag young wives and breeding spots for all vices in the eyes of the lava, made between a cahair and one operated by whichever of any court the legal right to the two groups in these plots CABARETS may be den of vice, meeting places for the lawless, traps to drag young women down in the mire and breeding spots for all villains that beset young men, but in the eyes of the law there should be no lawlessness. Colored people and one operated by white people, nor has a judge of any court the legal right to forbid the mixing of the two groups in these places any more than he would have of keeping them apart in a department store. Yet there seems to be a concerted effort to keep the lawlessness to break up this intermingling of the deminons. NEARLY 100 WHITE PEOPLE were arrested in a so-called black and tan cabaret in New York, and not a single Colored inmate. The magistrate before whom the prisoners appeared bitterly consumed them for mingling with blacks and degrading not only the criminals but also the innocent people not being in a cabaret but being in a cabaret with Colored people. Does a white face make a cabaret rounder any higher in the social scale than one with a black face? Doesn't water seek its level? Does the black man go out with a club and drive innocent people into a bar? Doesn't it not a fact that whites of low and high degree find some excuse to get into our company, in the North for one reason, in the South for another? IN CHICAGO the hue and cry goes up, "Wipe the black and tan cabareres." But nothing is said of the hell dives that flourish in strict white neighborhoods. The police say that those of their own kind, where bolsteraes and bombers hang out, and where murders are of frequent occurrence. These reformers see nothing but one side of the picture, and it is with the keenest of pleasure the police go about the mission of raiding places where groups meet on any sort of terms of social equality. IF CABARETS are lawless institutions, close them—all of them, not merely the ones run by members of our group. Every house of ill repute, every gambling question and questionable dance hall should be closed and kept closed by the constituted authorities. But graft and prejudice make a strong combination to Chicago is as white open today as it ever was in its existence, and it isn't hard to tell where the blame lies. Something can be done to remedy the situation truly, but that something must be done by the voters. In the meantime it is well to call to the attention of the authorities everything of a lawless nature that comes under observation. It might be well that the prejudice-minded judges and the ignorant social forcism police remember that the definition of superiority isn't white. WRIGLEY, the gum man, is urged to become a candidate for mayor of Chicago. Don't bite off more than you can chew, Wrig. IN KEEPING with the season we again bring forth "Only a few more days till Christmas—do your shopping early." IT'S LOVE, all right, if he still thinks her beautiful with the greater part of a hot dog parked in her face. ANOTHER TROUBLE with our police is that they spend too many weeks expecting an arrest within twenty-four hours.

Sir: I am writing to congratulate you upon the splendid news service you are giving us through the Children's fine organization that is giving results. The editorials are succinct, clear and conservative, seeming with the charm of The Week, edited by Col. Simmons, is a feature that gives considerable strength to the paper in that his comments upon the news issue that issues before American people, are interesting and sometimes illuminating. I think you have made no mistake by making this interesting and factual, maintaining, lucid and forceful writer. His writings are such as will keep the people of both races in good spirit and humor, one of the best in fact. In fact, you are splendid in splendid service. Sincerely yours, J. P. LANE. Dear Mr. Abbott: From Chicago to Colorado Springs and from the Springs to the Dyer, I find a piece worthwhile but what the Defender was also there. And the Defender has educated his students in the air over the Dyer Ant-Lynchbill bill. I think, as all other thinking Race men think about the bill, that the principles of equal justice are an enemy of our Race. Not only that, but all such senators are enemies to the principles of equal justice. We prayed Aro-Americans in the United States should ask God in his own ways. The man or men we try to protect mob violence in the United States against a faithful and loyal Defender, who spirits in the world—by virtue of their wicked attitude to our people. The same gives us a devine right to call for help to remove the compulsive cause. REV. E. C. BRANET. From Day to Day At the 12th annual session of the West Central conference of the A. M. Bishop Blackwell, presiding, warned the people against immorality of all kinds, telling them that it was rapidly destroying the Race. Marcus Newman, former postal clerk of Pittsburgh, Pa., and well known for his work with the Bishop has been sentenced to the electric chair for murder. People of both races met in Athena, Ga., to take up a discussion growing out of recent anonymous warnings scattered in the city and ordering the citizens to leave. Among the passengers aboard the ship that landed in New York recently, was Bishop W. T. Vernon, of the A. M. E. church, returning from his diocese in Africa. A jury in Florida acquitted former Gov. Cats of charges of peonage. Steven Peters (white) has brought suit through his attorneys in Baltimore, MD., and New York, arguing in the civil war for the purpose of colonizing Liberia. He charges the society with a debt of $30,000. William Kjern has just been pardoned at Portsmouth, Va., for killing 22 people, and has served 22 years. SATURDAY, DECEMBER 30, 1922 DR. A. WILBERFORCE WILLIAMS DR. A. WILBERFORCE WILLIAMS PREVENTIVE MEASURES, FIRST AID REMEDIES HYGIENICS AND SANITATION No Cases Are Disagreed and No Prescriptions Given in Three Weekly Articles PNEUMONIA-ITS MANAGEMENT to cough and expectate in a paper napkin or cloth napkin, which should be placed under the patient to expectate in an old cloth or handkerchief; wipe his or her mouth with it and tuck it under the pillow. Nor should the patient be allowed to raise up and move the patient to the newspaper floor near the bed. The patient with pneumonia should not be allowed to go into the bath room; to answer the calls of nature, but should use the bed pan until the patient is able to climb him to visit the bath room. Of course there is a reason for this. The pneumonia poison is so great it often attacks the heart muscle. In fact one's safe recovery from pneumonia, for making a light, depends upon the patient's ability. Following the heart come the kidneys in point of importance. They are often damaged, although normal in the beginning of pneumonia; if they are diseased at the onset or pneumonia is present, the situation is greatly increased. Hot or cold applications may be made to the chest. Often the hot water bag may relieve the pain; on the other hand, in the case of a stout, robust person, the ice bag is preferable. If there is headache, symptoms of delirium, ice bag to head, especially to the back of head, is often quite desirable. The diet during the period of fever should be mostly liquids, of which plenty should be given from the beginning to the end. Should the patient drink cold water? Yes, plenty of cold water. We know that you have been taught or that you have an idea that fever patients should not have cold water, but in pneumonia give the sick person all the cold water, milk and lemonade that he might wish, so long as it does not cause and stomach disturbance. We know that you are stricken with horror, when the doctor tells you to give the pneumonic patient all the fresh, cold air and cold drinks that we may want. We know that you have been accustomed to give hot teas, life-everlasting tea, Vick salve tea, sheep tea, hog-hoof tea and all other nonsensical hoof teas, but if you wish your beloved one to recover from pneumonia, you must obey and follow to the letter the instructions of an intelligent medical adviser. Now do not understand that in the beginning, a hot mustard foot bath or a hot bath with a cold towel about the neck, or a hot towel about the head, or such as hot lemonade, hot tea are objectifiable, as those often add to the comfort of the patient. There is very little medicine needed, but much need to be given to maintain tendance and on the tip-toe of expectancy for any complications that may arise. Medicine is only given on or during of pressing conditions, or on demand of pressing conditions, and self-control must be in constant attendance. Some doctors use serums during the first 24 hours with satisfying results in some cases, and self-control operate with the physician in charge. THE ONLOOKER By A. L Jackson THE ONLOOKER By A. L Jackson Turkey, French signboards and French pictures are seen everywhere in the small villages. Added to this is the fact, that France next to Great Britain is one of the powers having subjects with whom she has lived in harmony for the most part and you have the answer. Of course we all feel that the French attitude with reference to darker people would explain most of this, but perhaps it is because they make their techniques follow their economic and political advantages rather than to make them adjust themselves to their feelings as Americans and Britains are accustomed to do. ONLY A SCRUB NORTHWESTERN UNIVERSITY did a fine thing to inspire men and women throughout the world in erecting a monument to a man who played so well on the athletic teams of the university without winning any special recognition. Without scrub players in every walk of life where would we President Scott, in unveiling the monument, gave the following reasons for the recognition. They are worth considering: *Because he played four years on the scrubs and never won a letter, but never gave up. *Because he rated B-plus in his classes, but never appeared in a prize list. *Because he never was president of anything. *Because he was not particularly distinguished in dress or dancing, could not play a saxophone, get up amateur theatricals or otherwise contribute to the general festivities. *Because he died a hero's death, as he had lived his life without apoplexia. So many of us must leave this old world without knowing whether, in the sight of our fellows, our lives have been successful or useful. There is too much of the spirit of our world to allow us to forget. After all the majority of us must go through the world doing the ordinary chores day after day despite any secret yearning we may have for romance, applause and deeds of valor. Nevertheless, there would be no place for the man who occupies the headline position if it were not for our love. We would have taken things as they came and made the most of them is well-timed and conceived. The scrubs make champions possible. The one could not exist without the other. Z. Z.

Whatever is to be done must be done skillfully and as quickly as possible. You should advise that if you have a chilly feeling, stabbing pain in side, difficult chest, weakened ache and fever, you call a good physician immediately. To the family we would advise that the patient with pneumonia be placed in the room, then willed room in the house. The room should be light and furniture scarcity, just what is necessary. It is better to place the sick one on the sunny side of the house whenever possible at once the windows. Now be afraid of the patient catching fresh cold. If you wish to give your sick one the best possible chance of making a successful fight for his or her life do not shut out the in your mind that open windows with cold air blowing in on one sick with fever "will fill him full of cold." Remember that you should follow such a doctrine you will increase and lessen the number of your family. You should see that the patient with pneumonia has a sufficient amount of covering to keep warm and comfortable. The patient may need a mask, a face mask, and ears, but do not cover up the face. We hope that none of our readers will be so foolish as to expose the patient to the cold or cause him or her to suffer in endeavouring to get warm. You should get the idea that cold air is pure air; air closed up in a room may be cold as zero, but may also fog, dirty and filled with deadly germs. There should be a sufficient amount of covering to keep out dampness, to keep the walls dry, etc, but there should be a current of fresh air in the room at all times. The attendants should wear sufficient amount of comfortable. There should be very few visitors admitted to the sick room. The patient should have absolute rest. Do not practice the foolish habit of visiting the sick and shaking hands, asking that old woman give you a warm drink or "Who is your doctor?" You should inquire of the family or nurse as to the progress of the patient. All cases of lobar pneumonia must be reported to the doctor. The patient must be absolutely excluded from the sick room. There should be no visiting or sitting around in the sick room. Pneumonia is contagious. The sick one should have his own indulgence. The patient should be trained GETTING A NEW START THE New Year is the popular season for taking inventory of successes and failures in our personal affairs as well as in our business.

Resolutions and pleasures little things soon forgotten; but a few moments given to a quiet review of those things accomplished or left unfinished during the past year will give most of us some impetus to a fresh start for the new year. Little sympathetic understanding and appreciation of the other fellow's point of view mixed with a little more faith in your own destiny and a determination to make that destiny a high one, will go a long way to make that trite use of the best attitude of New Year's living message of good will to your fellow men. FRENCH AND TURK STEPHANE LAUZANNE, the distinguished French editor, explains the strange friendship of the French and the Turk which has enabled Austalia Kaspia to contend with the upset some of their careful calculations. It is no secret that the well informed believe that France has secretly encouraged the Turkish leader and followed that by refusing to stand fast in opposition to the Turkish republic, to be respectable to her European allies. Lazanne says that this friendliness dates back as far as 1514 when Francis I sent a special ambassador to Sultan Sollman offering him the alliance and friendship of France. Francis I, in turn, polonized followed his example. Even the second and third republics maintained this friendly relationship. Contrary to the usual stories of persecution and atrocities charged to the Turkish nation, the disloyal Turkish domains have always been respected by the Turks. Then he adds this significant information—that the French language is spoken in the remotest parts of PART TWO WORLD TOPICS IN BRIEF The Howard A. M. E. O Our Presid Birds and Fowls Are Going Out Slow Extinction Due to the Killing and to Mixed Breeding of Hens A birdless world is not beyond the bounds of probability. Lovers of birds and their numbers of British birds is on the down grade. Many varieties, for well known, are now all but extinct. The extinction of certain birds may be traced to natural causes, such as the smaller, smaller, smaller. Unfortunately, however, it does not seem that the waker species the smaller, the smaller, and the stronger gaining ground. There is today a lamentable want of varieties of birds the thirsty and black-bird, observes a London Answers writer. There is no work than merely the natural enemies, man being included. Our birds to the city dwellers may mean only the reduction of the ubiquitous sparrow: but the decrease of birds in country districts is a problem. Birds in the countryside damage to growing crops, but a birdless world might easily bring about a fruitless Fashion Fatal to Birds Apart altogether from their beauty and the harmony they import to country life, their value, from a utility point of view, cannot be over- Insect-devouring birds are an absolute necessity, and it is a regrettable fact that the greatest reduction has taken place in this class. This shortage, as has been said, cannot be traced to a ruthless war waged against the feathered tribe. The disappearance of many beautiful varieties, it must be admitted with shame, may be traced to fashion's fickle fancies and to the savagery of alleged sportsmen. But there is another force, beyond man's control, working for the destruction of nature's feathered choir. Several nests kept under observation during this season revealed the fact that many others which had been subjected to the usual period of incubation failed to produce chicks. This, of course, is not an unusual thing in wild bird life, and may often be due to the death of either parent. In the nests referred to, however, incubation seems to have been completed. Many will merely put this down to the prolonged period of wintry weather experienced all over the British Isles during early spring. Eggs, But No Chicks But there is another theory worth considering, one more likely to account for young bird shortage, and one which, in generations to come, may turn our world into a birdless Bird life, as we know it today, has been pretty much the same for generations, with this exception, of course—that certain birds have disappeared altogether. As there is no check in wild bird life, in so far as mating is concerned, a system of interbreeding has been going on during these ages. Crossing in plant life, interbreeding in animal life, have but one ultimate end. Interbreeding spells extinction. The stock begins to show signs of reduced vitality. Once the number of any species is reduced, unrelated selection in mating becomes a difficult problem, which, of course, cannot be solved by the birds' limited intelligence. What will happen will be obvious to the reader. In the near future, unfertile eggs will be laid and incubation become impossible. Then the dawn of a birdless world will only be a matter of time. Precisely the same thing is taking place in domesticated fowl life. There has been, during the last season, an alarming shortage of fertile eggs. The complaint is by no means local that settings of eggs have failed entirely to produce chicks. Underfeeding, the cold spring and many other reasons have been advanced to account for this lack of fertility. Here, as in bird bird life, a more subtle working is in going on, to which he desperates to keep falls to take its proper value. A guarantee that eggs are the product of a bird's own body does not nothing these days. The process of interchange is so far reaching that a four reaver cannot put his eggs into a bird's blood into his pen as being unlabeled. Under this prevailing system it is known that the scourge of sterility invades the egg production has been the outmost reason he has secured, but in securing it the law of nature have been vitiated. A hen cannot be turned into a "laying" being without its constitution being impaired. Unless extreme care is manifested, a hen may, at a distant date, have to face the problem of a hostless world.

An Arkansas annual conference is north going miles to see. The spirit is never quenched and religion runs high. You can hear the brethren in song, the church takes off dignity, lays aside words and steeps out on the Cross. What is religion without fire in the heart, a prayer and faith. Books have you You don't find "old time religion" in either the general conferences or the National Baptist conventions.

The clipping before this writer says the annual conference indorses an elder for the bench of bishops. All well and good.

Also, wonder where the Republican party will find another Will Hays. Political general, Hays gave YOUR work to Hiram Johnson. The worker, he gave "Fatty" *Arbute* another chance. Women howl; but women were born to make YOU too the mark. They mark the foe. **THIS WRIST IS Written** by S. W. Hays. This speech to deliver the dedicatory speech at the opening of the $250,000 building erected by the Pythians at the time, the future, so bright for your children. The humble labor of this writer's pen and voice pray the your children. Children then will get an idea of what you saw, went, up against, fought and defeated them. --- You know the story of the Pythians, wonderful organization, entering Hot Springs, do you not? A few lines will remind you. At Hot Springs God shed healing waters for HIS people. Health is seen bursting from the ground. Man found the springs and called them a rebirth. The favored took themselves there. But you could not go, for neither houses nor beds were there for you. You often murmur: "Where am I welcome?" Never mind; your road is the hard road of progress. If you knew history you would be stout of heart. Suddenly the chief Pythian, genius, gentleman, S. W. Starks, who died in 1998, said: "Let us build a place at Hot Springs for ALL the people; not for Pythians, but for ALL the people." Starks talked in low tones, but his followers understood, followed, worshipped him. That is full story of the building which this writer will dedicate on the ashes of the first one erected years ago. Starks picked Green to be his successor before his death. If you ever saw Green, a man of 5 feet 4, black, welging less than 100 pounds, you would know the meaning of the words "mind over matter." He is all wool and a yard wide. ... This thought comes: Hold on to your secret societies. Educated men, women, and children, tell you secret societies are no good. You know—so does this book. You know—so does this little you know of money, power of pennies, possibility of organization, to law respect for authority. You know—so does these things, as you know. Look at Finley Wilson, youngest ground exalted ruler of the Eiks, the human society of comrades. He has it all: he will do with it when asked when that strong young man was crowned. He newdges, new spirit, new and better comradeship and more power through his newdges, new spirit, new and better comradeship and more power through his newdges. Wilson is a native of Tennessee, introduced to journalism by this writer. Your oldest, wisest fraternal leader,培养了你的 youngest and valiant. Work discover in Wilson the story of your dues and respect the chair. Other great leaders: Ben Davis, the most successful achievement in the name of Bush; Morris, king among Old Fellows. OUR WHITE PEOPLE don't know what to get at. They just act as all nations, peoples acted good-boy to peace, farewell in sleep. "I will look into the hearts of the people," cried Alexander, misunderstanding Judaism. Many years have passed since he spoke. Look at Russia. If the soviet could look into Alexander's heart. Such is life. Up today, down tomorrow. You say, Your color will be your salvation, though idiotics among you are ashamed of it. Up step one crowd of the reformers, crying "Direct election of the President," for somebody who will vote for the President, YOU would vote directly for your rule. You are fine!" lady politicians will say. Yes, very fine, if you think with lady minds. When the Constitution was written. Many of your Race will say, "But I was free." Pay them free "the free" they like, you were yet slaves. When Lincoln took his pen in hand, he was North as well as South. Some colored people make you sick, don't. Years ago we elected the President in the Congress. Patriots soon found CHICAGO, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 30. 1922 Congress Henry Ford Clemenceau All rights reserved. out that would never do. Everybody finally catches on to Congress. Hence the present college教授. Let one of the most enlightened WHITE men, Benjamin Karr, tell you about the Cleveland News, that great paper conducted by the grandson of Marie Hammond, temporarily not parish. Says Mr. Karr, South Carolina, a BLACK state with a big natural majority of Republicans, has only nine electors in the state with a NATURAL. Republican majority, has ten electoral votes. "But think what could be done if the country voted directly, as a Vice-President. Then if Ohio gave an honest and a lawful Republican majority of 100,000 it would be swamped with ease by Mississippi." "The trick is too plain." and the North will never walk into it. You are glad of the last statement, aren't you? ment, aren't you a "North" has walked into everything else pressed by the Democratic party, you are amazed. Whence all this wisdom, courage, bravery, all at once? That is a natural question. President Hayes has walked into the trap and then touched the spring. Mr. Karr pays his respects to South Carolina. He asks if direct election of the President could get a foothold in our country, Mr. Karr thinks: might it be possible that the President's official vote would be equal 300,000 to 100 and Mississippi's 400,000 to 200. That should give Senator Ted Cruz the taming stateman, great pause. You are living in a grand and awful world. Tell your children not to fret. No nation built on race ever lived. Go search the records of nation France is France; built on ALL races, all bloods, all creeds, all wars. Your President by direct vote, and either YOU will vote or a revolution will flare up, unless human nature changes. Nothing ever changed. TERRIBLE NEWS from Louisiana. You say, Yes, very terrible indictment. Don't talk about it, but wait and listen. An important man writes to this writer, to say that some people object to the term "our white people". He writes to the objectors, and no one asks them to read what this writer puts out. He writes to his own crowd, a following Hannibal would have been proud of. So again, wait and see what OUR white people will do. "Look what the Klan has done," you are saying. Keep quiet on the Klan. But, you are saying, it is wrong. Most everybody is against "us." But look at the Methodist Episcopal Church. E. Jones is a leader. That organization is FOR the Klan, but also for YOU. Carrying water on both shoulders. "Why does he say that?" you murmur to yourself. Because the largest church in the country that church denounced the Klan and took it back the next day. Then the matter dropped. About that time a few preachers of the denomination got together in Nashville to tell nature to stop fermenting. This writer asked preachers of that denomination what about the Rock River conference and the Khan. The preacher asked the Khan. Hold on to the AL E church; then you hold on to the Ku Klu Xian. This writer wishes that he could by step what religious history has been past. --- Back to Louisiana. From the waters of Mer Rouge (those words white bodies are taken). Years ago there was another Red Scan; a real one. Who crossed over it, journeyed back to Louisiana, white bodies are taken. After awhile the River of Tears in our land will give up its countless dead, those burned, lynched, brushed, and women taken by lust. A voice will hear, he saying, "Then somebody will begin to pay. So look on and say nothing as to Louisiana. Mer Rouge says enough to kill him. Kill alone. Congress found it too hot. YOUR CONGRESS is going west, though headed cast. History of Louisiana. Mer Rouge says enough to kill him. Kill alone. Congress found it too hot. The Dyer bill brought the Senate to its senses. Senators found that a majority could free government is could not do business.

"I believe so," said Mr. Underwood, wry. "I believe we killed the Dyer bill." I believe so, said Mr. Underwood, wry. "I believe we killed the Dyer bill." Amition rulens many men; some it will keep out of heaven. The first question put to Thomas E. Watson by Peter the morning Mr. Watson told. "This is about what Peter asked: 'How did you leave Lincoln Johnson?' Mr. Watson told that senatorial courtesy goes no far and no farther. Democrats fillbustering against the ship subsidy bill invite the wrath that is the intelligent Representative. That is the intelligent Representative of your Congress. The Senate is the wise end. In the middle is the your Supreme Senate, but curbed with will, sedon wise, and meat on your table. The Dyer bill had been defeated the Washington Post.

Years ago South Wales had a monopoly of Canadian trade in plate and gullied iron. Then Pittsburgh practically ousted South Wales. Swansea and Cenarvon have, as far as eastern Canada, is concerned, recaptured most of the business. The Canadian government merchant marine claims credit for the switching of the tin plate trade from Pittsburgh to Wales by making a freight rate from Swansea to Canada that enabled the Welsh manufacturers to underbid Pittsburgh and get at least a portion of the business. The Canadian government merchant marine—a war baby—has been called "a white elephant." The ships, like those of the American shipping board, were built at the peak of high prices. It was sold this was a handicap which, in view of present replacement values, is found never to become. The slump in shipping seemed to add the death blow. But it is anything but a corpse. The other day a Canadian government ship taking an American cargo out of New York harbor for Australia passed American shipping board craft on their way to their grayevard. To All Parts of World In two years the C. G. M. M. has made it possible to carry 50 per cent of Canadian bottoms. It has opened up a direct exchange of national products in Canada. It has created an important Canada-West India commerce. Its ships are unloading on Canadian shipments of wheat and flour and meat from Melbourne, grapes from Spain, lemons from Sifley, spices and tea from India. Bahia, sugar from the West Indies. Outbound there are ample Canadian products—wheat and flour and meat from New York. They ago the first solid train of "Made in Canada" automobiles built for export. Great Britain, St. John they were hoisted into a Canadian government vessel. These automobiles were the product of the Canadian plant of General Motors, which has announced that the majority of its port are to be made in Canada. It is but one of several American manufacturers which have announced a Any cargo that is convenient for Canadian ports may carry that is convenient, but they want cargoes bound from or for Canadian ports. The demand for cargoes from Canada for assistance. Whenever a ship is wanted in Shanghai or Calcutta or Singapore to bring home rice or silk, beans or sugar, the Panama route gives British Columbia a chance to sell land and supplies to southern Europe in fair competition with the United States. And this route links Montreal St. John and Vancouver St. John to the Pacific Islands and the Orient. The fleet consists of 65 vessels totaling 882,613 deadweight tons, in eight classes from the 2,800 ton to the 19,000-ton class; and all were built in Canada. The C. G. M. M. has agencies now in 26 countries. In addition, the double service or "ship for ship" system is working with two British lines—the British India Steam Navigation company to the Far East and the Blue Funnel line to the Orient. Each company agrees to send one ship out on a route when the other sends out a ship on the same route. If a Blue Funnel freighter leaves Yokohama or Salgon for Vancouver, a Maple Leaf freighter leaves Vancouver for the corresponding port. Besides making for more frequent service, this involves a mutual agency. The C. G. M. M. and Canadian National traffic staffs begin planning a return cargo for the British India ship from Montreal, Halifax or St. John before she has headed from Bombay or Rangoon for the Panama canal, and as soon as the C. G. M. M. cables her allied line that a "Canadian inventor" or "Canadian spinner" is selling from Canada for Malta, Port Sald and Calcutta, the officials of that line are co-operating with the Maple Leaf's own agents in the Far East to provide a return cargo. Neither Liners Nor Tramps The "Naple Leafs" are neither native nor well-named, nized routes and also go where and when business offers, trying to work with the local community, seasonal fluctuations and new kews. Every month they add one or two more ports of call. Reference to their location on a recent day showed 36 of the larger ships active, 12 loading or unloading, and 18 high seas. Four were at Montreal, two at Vancouver, two at Melbourne and one each at St. Louis, Sidney, Australia; Calgary, B. C., and Cardiff, Wales. Five were in the West Indian and British ports, three in the British and European service, three on the Pacific coastal service and 15 in the Oriental and Astralian servicer.

LETTER FROM CAIRO, EGYPT The Following Is an installment of a Series of Letters Sent Tony Langston by Two Performers Who Went Abroad in 1878 and "Never Came Back." Instead of us going in at once and getting it over with us stopped to argue. The conversation ran something like this: "Why don't you go on in?" For answer, "Why don't you, you are so brave?" Then, "You know you belong on that side where you go in first. Look here, man, it is no use standing here all night," and many more "why don't you do this and that." All this time the public, which were packed in like sardines, were stretching their necks to see us come in. The band got out of breath trying to hold the accord. The trainer came again to the cage door and told us to hurry up and not to be afraid as the lions were perfectly quiet. We took courage and in we went. We got cherished to the echo. We were told in the morning that when we left the cage not to forget to close the safety door. We had already made up our minds not to close it when we went in. As soon as we got in and sat down the trainer shut the partition on one side and there were with five lions and a man with a club and can. I suppose for the moment we were toward the trainer, they were his pants. For a few second it was "Down, Down, Down," laid at the trainer's feet to he played at the trainer's feet to he played at the front of the cage and began licking other. As far as we were concerned we seemed to be below his notice, and they did they looked as though they would not need any overcrowds. We had the pianist hold up his hands and I told them I would hold up afterwards that he played the introduction over twice. Our landlord said all one could see was a song called "Down in Mobile." At the same time we were wishing that we were anywhere outside of that cage. We apologize at the conclusion of each. The safety door into the cage was only large enough for one person to go in at a time. When we were finished we came out that safety door five abreast when we did come out five minutes after the安全带。We thought the whole structure would collapse. The public yelled encore, bravo and everything else nlee like, and they were still yelling, so we then had to go in. We were still in the安全带. We thought was that the one that was always saying "do this and that" never started doing it himself. The trainer called to us to come in the cage and bow if we did not go in again. The only way any one could have got us in that cage was to chloroform us, hit us on the head with a sledge hammer, then put chains into the cage. We were still out with whole skins and to have gone back again would have been too much like flirting with the undertaker. Some one of the boys was heard to say "I was a little tired" and "I could doubt there was a silent Amen." Bedel made a great fuss over us. He gave us a nice supper and he said we were the best attraction that he ever had. "I was a little tired," he said. "Some one said he is so nice we had better strike him for some hoof and we did. He said he would only be too pleased and sent us to the secretary. He said he was a little tired, but the effect that we should get $35 instead of $20 that we had asked, then each of us would have $5. The secretary said Bedel was highly delighted with us. He said he was very happy when the meeting time on contract. We thanked the secretary and we went home. We were not in the house long talking the matter over when some one said you know we will do it. We were very happy when wild beasts, not knowing one minute from the next what will happen. The proposition was carried George Dunsan One by One Features and Correspondence unluckymost. This was about 2 a. m. when they arrived. We were told and told him we were going to Llege and we were going to Llege. We would be back early next evening. A couple of hours later we were on the train. While all this and maybe much more is going on on the pavement, pushing and shoving each other, the vehicle traffic and policemen are having a time of it. Caba, motor cars, motor omnibus and all kinds of vehicles, traffic all mixed up together. There being no speed limit here you can form an idea how things go on. You will see a native funerary pass when men marrying the corpse. In a box. Then a Exeter corpse is a rural with music. Then a closed carriage with some girl that has been given in marriage. Then we have circumcision procession. Then baptism procession, some woman has just come out of the hospital. Then the ladies having been out for an aling they amuse themselves by singing, beating on tom to the people, and playing a dreaming out while one or two will be doing the hootey kootey dance. All of these processions, with the exception of the last, have music and plenty of riff raff followers. First comes three men with a set of kettle drums stretched around their necks, with these there are perch balances, they are very clever, too. Then they form a to be a group, behind them come a horrid band with three or four clarinets, a couple of bass horns, bagpipes and drums. You can form an idea what a row there is. They are all close together and most of the time they are all playing at once different times. (Continued Next Week) A. B. Watch for Beard --- A History of Music That Moved World of Slaves The story of our music is one full of challenge and is woven around adventure, hospice, sorrow and optimism. It represents, says the Christian Science Monitor, the expressive nature of music, the pride of music, who braved the hardships of slavery, and who, when all was dark and desolate, sang to the people. When the Negro came to this country on a little Dutch vessel in 1612, he sang in a strange country, practically the only weapon he brought with him was his songs, and with these songs he faced the challenges of his life, a period of 250 years, with a courage probably unequaled in the story of races, his songs, his songs, his hispiration, his patience, and he has sung of the freedom to come. A noted musician and for many years a member of the faculty of Fisk university, he sang his hispiration, his patience, and he has sung of the freedom to come. A noted musician and for many years a member of the faculty of Fisk university, he sang his hispiration, his patience, and he has sung of the freedom to come. A noted musician, like Harry T. Burleigh, Nathaniel Dettel, Carl Ditom, Gibbs Marshall, Cameron White and Coleridge-Taylor, all have recognized the value of this music, and each of them has sung his his or her own valuable contribution. Value of the Songs Another thing that has done much to save Negro music, as offered in these songs, has been the attitude toward them of our leaders. These leaders have been quick to recognize the value of these songs, and have kept before the younger generation of Negroes their duty in helping to save them. Dr. Robert R. Moton, the principal of Tuskegee Institute, while he was at Hampton, urged the importance of a knowledge of these plantation songs as a necessary part of the education of the students. Will Marion Cooke, another Negro musician, refers to Hampton as a good center for the development of this music. Booker T. Washington, while at Tuskegee, drilled into the students the respect they should have for their music. Negro music expresses itself in Negro folk songs, and Negro folk songs are called such because they are peculiar to Negro folks. If the numerous songs that were sung by the Negro during slavery had been built up from other songs of other peoples they would not have been Negro folk songs. That is the reason why "Old Black Joe," "My Old Kentucky Home" and "Suwannee River" are not Negro folk songs, because they were written by a white man, Stephen C. Foster, although built around a Negro theme. Spiritual References The point is one that should be remembered, because it is the com- ponent of the book. Foster are Negro music. There are many notable characteristics of the real Negro folk songs; among them are the songs of the Scriptures and their wonderful strength of reserve and resignation. To the Scriptures is that the Bible was the only book that was read to the Negro people of reserve and resignation, out of the 500 or more of these songs that have been reconstituted, more reconstituted, or broken. Although these songs were sung for many generations on the plantations throughout the South, their charm, their melancholy, their noteworthy noteworthy noteworthy until 1871, when Fisk university, at Nashville, Tennessee, one of the first institutions for the higher education of the South sent the Fisk University to the Confederate States and women properly to introduce these songs and leave it for the world to place its pioneer spirit upon them. The first song was the profession of Prof. George White, the Fisk Singers began their tour. Their first stop was at Oberlin, Ohio, where the congregational churches were in session. Convention Asks for More Permission was asked for the singers to sing, but the request was waved back because the occasion was bating the fact, however, whether or not they should be heard they had stolen around in the galley of a sudden fire, and a sudden there floated over that large convention the soft strains of a sudden noise, and a tash tell over the audience as the music of that song floated over the hall. There were pathos, harmony, sympathy, because they trained singers, and they carried away that vast audience. They stopped, the convention cried for them, because they present time no one has doubted the place these songs have in American culture. Fortunately for the Fisk Singers, Henry Ward Beecher, who was then pastor in Brooklyn, was visiting that jubilee singers he arose in the midst of the convention and invited them to sing. The singers started for the North with trepidation and trembling, because on what the New York critics said would depend the future of the But the singers came, and came and came coming had been widely heralded and a capacity audience greeted their first appearance. The New York newspaper, The New York Times, praised her, herding the singers as a splendidly trained group of singers, its own original music. After touring America the Fisk Singers toured to America its own original music. After touring America the Fisk Singers toured to Europe, touching the heart of peasant and nobility with these American men. We vividly describes the tour of the singers. They travelled with equal success in Germany and the United States, touring the world, touching deeply the hearts and consciences of people, and versatility they had laid at the doors of their alma mater $150,000, which went to a building that stands on the hall, a building that stands on the busus of that university, dedicated to Negro music.

Willard Motley (Bud Billiken) It was on New Year's eve that we all set up and wait for the New Year to come in and the old year to go out and then you turn over your new leaf. It was on New Year's eve, a few years ago, that I sat up to greet the New Year. I was very sleepy and laid down on the sofa to sleep until midnight. I had not been asleep long when, hark! I heard the ringing of bells, the honking of horns and the shots of guns. I also heard the chimes of the old Cathedral. It was exactly 12 o'clock when I imagined that I saw an old man with a long beard and a scythe. He was trembling for he knew his end had come and as the last grains of sand fell he slowly disappeared. At that very moment I saw a small boy come in with a childish smile upon his face. He laughed and started on his weary path. At that very moment my mother called me and asked me if I was not going to turn over a new leaf. That spoiled my dream. The next day at 3 o'clock—well, I don't think it is necessary to go any further, but that was the beginning of a perfect feast. The answer to last week's question is, because he has whiskers.

BUD BILLIKEN Short Story The Earthly Christ Child The Themes The cold and blade which made the busy busy shop The hurried footsteps mingling with the children, the dren, who gazed at toyland, displayed in the large window, soon found its way into the room. Yes, a beautiful child, but also he was cripple. His parents passed to the nursery, and an unshakeable while he was yet an infant. There he lay in a dirty bed, where he had been placed by his foster mother. His large brown eyes sparkled, as he illuminated to the merry chatter without. What could it mean, why are they child as he rubbed his smooth brown cheek as though trying to sum it all. He was dressed and in came his foster mother. "Eat this and go to sleep." she said, "I eat a portion of bread and milk on a broken plate." "Please, ma'am," said he. "I should like to know why everyone is so happy, satisfied your whining, and so saying I love you. But let us pause and select the name of David for our character. He dreamed of his eyes into a deep sleep. He dreamed of a child's paradise, where he too, was running in the fields of beautiful flowering grass, in the air. The "Christ" was the comforter and he blessed them one by one, by his heart, by his heart beat with excitement as his young heart beat with excitement through the air, a soft prayer leaped from his heart that he too, might return on the door. He placed and in came three children, each carrying a basket and parcels tied in beautiful holly paper. Davie's eyes beamed with excitement as he met his girl about his own age and kissed her forever. Davie had never been kissed before. Each placed the basket and parcels in his hands. As he united the package and as the girl, his heart beat faster, and faster. little children," they said. It was a new life for David as he rode the church bus. He now understood the church of the chalked walls and as the choir arose and lifted their voices to the sky. Their voice echoed the sweet phrases also. How beautiful it was to learn of one who loved the poor and blessed them, for was not David blessed? Yes, indeed, a thousand fold over, for the Christ Child had blessed him upon Christmas morning. — By Leonard Brown. THE TREATY O' MILLER'S CREEK; THE CHIEF OF THE SCORPIONS By BEN GOODLOW, 1004 G Street, Aurora, Neb. (Continued From Last Week) Brownie would call the Scorpion that afternoon. It had not been that Davy had forced the Scorpion to attack him. No more affirms. Brownie would not have played for Todd had plenty of self- pride. Davy had plagued him, he had plagued him, he had counted in the final reckoning; and as the pride which forbade him want him, also forced him to recognize an apology when given in the right way. Davy came home, he had a shout, and a shout, and the old rop. Davy acquitted himself like a man. After the game the Scorpions, with the exception of Dimond, crowded in the park, was the first of the world's most famous and the most of the grass was long and soft and luxurious, and began the task of getting acquainted with Walter Brown's Todd. Todd, in his capacity of the back, was rewarded with a time of the time, and at its b�ast periods, and had come in contact with many strange things and countless everyday adventures. He had seen the possible strides, and he had had thrilling rescues at congested crossings. One time he had witnessed a gun battle between the police and an unleashed gun, and the right of the street in broad daylight. No movie picture stuff—the real article! He had also seen the great Grayton hotel fire. He was very old. Theมาดาสมีสีเหลือง was the western, novels and your "Treasure Island", Huh! A street gamin in a large American city sees things and the stars are mixed up in things that the old-time romance writers never dreamed of. It was nearly sundown when Todd finished his last thriller, and he was not long to be a man who has been working with the boys knew he wasn't lying because they were cognizant of the things of which he spoke, and he had been so much enough to witness them. His stories beat theirs all hollow. His adventures, all taking place in the busy downtown of the city, were so far so long outstripped any of the ghost stories or the imaginary tales they could tell. Because there was substance and body to be found, he was telling—an element of truth and reality. "We-er--like you, Todd," they said again, using "We'll initiate you, if you like." How to Make Ingredients—One tablespoon butter, one teaspoon salt, one teaspoon shredded coconut, one-half teaspoon of oil. Method—Melt butter in saucepan, add milk and sugar, stir until sugar is dissolved, heating slowly; boll 12 to 15 minutes; remove from fire and add coconut and vanilla, beating until creamy. Pour into buttered tins and cool. Penuches Ingredients—Two cups light brown sugar, one-third cup milk or cream, one tablespoon butter, one-third teaspoon cream of tartar, three-fourths cup of chopped nuts, one teaspoon vanilla extract. Method—Put sugar, milk, butter and cream of tartar in saucepan. Boll with as little stirring as possible until it makes a soft ball when tested in cold water. Take from fire, add nuts and vanilla, beat until thick and pour into creased tins. When cool cut into squares. Both these recipes were sent in by the same girl that a few weeks ago told the Billikens how to make Kansas doughnuts. All right: now, Billikens, try making the above and then write to Cora V.

YOUNG ILL Louis Phal, known to the boxing world as Battling Siki, a young Frenchman of 28 years, winner over Georges Bouchard in the heavyweight championship of Europe and the light heavyweight W ILL Louis Phal, known to the boxing world as Battling Siki, a young Frenchman of 25 years, winner over Georges Carpentier for the heavyweight title of Europe and the light heavyweight championship of the world, bring about a different style of boxing? That is a question that confronts the followers of the boxing game. Siki protects his stomach and pays little attention to his head, which accounts for Carpentier being able to land on his jaw, although it failed to hurt the new champion. From all accounts Siki will never be the defensive boxer that Jack Johnson was when he was up to his challenge, he will be measure up with the science of Peter Jackson. But Siki can hit. There is power behind his blows. American newspaper correspondents in France have sent out many ridiculous stories about Sifu's training habits, some of these we are loathe to believe. The biggest pill these same correspondents are forced to swear by the attention the newly crowned champ by the French women. Siki's History Sikl, or rather Louis Phal, was born in St. Louis de Senegal, French West Africa, on the 16th day of September, 1897. He was brought to France when a mere boy. From the time he was 13 he has earned his own way in the world by washing bottles in a barroom. During this time he learned a little about the art of boxing and at the age of 16 had entered in three boxing matches, winning-two by knocking out his opponents and the third on points. Yet he received less than an American dollar for his share of the three matches. When France was called to arms Sikl joined the Eighth Colonial infantry, a regiment made up of fellow country men from the French possessions in West Africa. He was married both the Croix de Honor models for exceptional bravery and was mustered out of the army in 1919. He then obtained work in the kitchen of a large hotel in Nice, where he still kept busy trying to learn the boxing game. Battling Ski is married, taking for his wife a pretty Holland girl and from the birth of this union there is one child. His wife is a native of the city of Rotterdam, Holland, where Ski made a visit shortly after his victory over Carpenter and where he was met by the entire populace of that city who showed flowers and kisses upon him. So much for his history, as far as his personal self is concerned. How about his jugistic abilities? During the past year he has met and defeated Harry Mansfield, a third class English heaviestweight; Paul Journeau his sparing partner, Marcel Nilles. Ski stops Mansfield in six rounds, but is able to do much with either partner or Nilles. When he was matched to fight Carpenter he really went to training. His massive shoulders caused him to be taught to keep his chin hidden behind the left one. He caught on quickly and his sparring partners were not able to land a single wallop such as Carpenter had been using to floor his victims. Boh Scanlon, former American boxer, who served with the French troops during the late war was engaged to act as Sikh's chief sparring partner. Scanlon has been a good boxer. The war left him with the best of shape, yet he taught the black Frenchman many tricks of the ring game. Scanlon is hustly. He taught his how to hit and when he entered the ring against Carpenter he was a far different man than the unskilled boxer who met Journee and Nilles. Skii is different from Johnson, as Jack was the finest example of a defensive boxer the ring had ever seen, yet he lacked attack. Skii is not a defensive boxer, although he might be taught that particular game the gamers with Carpentier could maul his opponent in the closing rounds. The King of 'Em All At Havana, Cuba, on the fifth day of April, 1915, Johnson met his Waterloo before the heavy young white fighter, Jess Willard, who later proved to be a joke at Toledo, Ohio, against Jack Dempsey. There are many who said Johnson did not train and circumstantial evidence is very strong in their favor. Johnson got in bad through prejudice and the fact that he had married a white woman. He had jumped his bond and rumors are strong about that he was promised immunity from jail. Against the fact that all talk of "rake" is ridiculed because Johnson met a giant 10 years his junior, possessed of less science but with more lasting strength. It might be honestly said that Johnson is forcing the fight through Upper circle—Crouching form of Battling Siki standing over Georges Carpentier, whom he has knocked down. Photo shows the defeated man in agony. Referee Bernstein is standing behind Siki. Below—Harry Wills and wife. Wills loops on the most logical contender for the world's heavyweight pugilistic honors. out and succeeding in staying 25 rounds at his age, then 38 years old, against a man of Willard's size, proved his gameness and boxing ability and the right to have held the championship of the world, which he dearly loved. Youth will always win over age when it comes a context where strength is required. Mental strength perhaps had much to do with the outcome. Johnson wanted to come back to his home in Chicago. He had gone from one country to another and could have beer rightfully termed "a man without a country." fight at Carson City, Nov., in w win again on again in the 13th ro Jackie Wills was a mere miken in hands of Johnson. The fight is $250,000. Johnson's next fight was Frank Moran in Paris on June 1814, which went 20 rounds. Georges Carpentier acting as referee wore in his knickknack son's ability to stay the 20 ro win and the decision was because I have said before he was the great defensive fighter, the ring ever seen. Johnson was the king of the he Close followers of the game feel that Johnson having styled the 28 rounds and having never seen Willard fight played him too easy. The fact that Gunboat Smith, whom Carpenter had defeated in London, had been playing with him might have had much to do with this. If Johnson had ever seen Willard box he would have still been champion. The Havana battle was the longest fight under the Marquis of Queensberry rules. Later Moran fought Willard 10 rounds (the limit in New York state) at the Madison Square Garden. He would claim if he had gone further Moran would have won. Johnson's rise was by the hardest kind of effort. James Corbett and Jim Jeffries, as well as Bob Fitzsimmons, had drawn the color line. In 1903 Jeffries granted Corbett's request for a second match and won in 10 rounds. Jeffries then announced his retirement and when Tommy Burns, James Corbett, Canadian champion, Jeffries gave him championship, entirely ignoring Johnson. Johnson was not to be outdone, however, and he followed him to England. Burns then went to Australia. Johnson accepted $5,000 and expenses to go to Sidney and fight. Johnson won in the 14th round on up to 6-2. That beat Burns up so badly that the police were so forced to stop the bout. Biki-Carpentier photos copyrighted by International Newareel.

Jeffries was a mere kitten in the hands of Johnson. The fight drew $250,000. Johnson's next fight was with Frank Moran in Paris on June 27. He won, and went on to play with Georges Carpentier acting as referee. There were no knockdowns. Johnson's ability to stay the 20 rounds and win the decision was because as I have said before he was the greatest defensive fighter, the ring had ever seen. Johnson was the king of the heavy-weights. Persecution on account of his race and color was his lot. He is at present traveling with a theatrical company, still keeping in trim. He was also against Wills or perhaps against Sikl. If the latter is brought to this country. Were Afraid of Jackson Were Afraid of Jackson The only other heavyweight of color who really should have been a champion, but whose color was against him in this country, was Peter Jackson. Jackson was born in the West Indian and was a British sailor. He lived in New York and L. Sullivan, but Sullivan, being afraid, hid behind the "color line." He said he would never fight a Negro, but it is a known fact that he had a Negro sparing partner while at San Bernadino, Calif., and also that he pulled off his coat, got into the ring in Boston and offered to fight old George Godfrey for nothing when the latter had aroused him with taunts that he was afraid of him. Sullivan's friends, fearing a beating, stopped the match. Peter Jackson came to the Pacific coast from Australia and got a match with Jim Corbett shortly after Corbett had beaten Jack Burke, a local Frisco friend. Jack was held May 21, 1891, when 51 rounds were played. However, the club at which it was staged refused to pay the purse of offered and called it no contest. The THE CHICAGO DEFENDER Carper Printed by International Newareel. *Wills photo by John Arthur Johnson, formerly heavyweight champion of the world. The greatest defensive boxer of all times and who at his present age today can outfight most of the present crop of pugilists. reason for this was because after the 30th round both men quit fighting and did nothing but circle around the ring, neither striking any blows. Corbett claimed that Jackson was a famous fighter and should have led the fighting. This Jackson refused to do, being willing to wait for his man to bring the fight to him. The contest added much to the reunion of both men. Jack was for a match with William, but could never get the Boston Irishman to fight him. Peter died in Australia where he was buried. Both Jackson and Johnson were great fighters, but the former was never given a chance at the championship title. Tom Molineaux A Virginia named Thomas Molineaux went across the high seas to Great Britain in 1810. He entered London without a friend, unheralded, unnoticed, and unknown. No sooner than he arrived he made himself known by appearing at the best sporting houses and himself as a candidate for Toulthi honors. He made a visit to Toulthi fields at a Bristol man and on 14, 1810, Molineaux proved good at fighting and won in the first round, the features of his opponent being hardly distinguishable. On Tuesday, Aug. 21, of the same year the English folks raked up a fellow named Blake, a rather dashing sort of man. The fight went eight rounds. Blake got away in the lead, landing two stinging leans and a kick. He was the American man's returns. The English followers of the white man went wild. Again in the second Blake planted three on Mollineau'x body, but found that his blows did not stop his opponent. Both men went down in the third, but Blake began to show signs of poor wield. In those days Mollineau'x got his, left arm around Blake's head and hammered him on ntier R y McDougal, New York. Molleseaux sketched fr Battling Siki, cautious in the first two rounds of his recent Paris fight, is seen covering up from a swing of Carpentier's left. the back of the neck with his right. Blake held freely. Blake was knocked flat in the sixth but got up. The elbow saw Blake go down for the finish when Molineaux followed a stiff right to the cheek with another to the head. I cite this battle to show the readers the style Molineaux used was similar to that used by Siki in the Carpentier fight. Molineaux, like Siki, showed no signs, of being a scientific boxer on the order of Jack Johnson. Where Johnson could easily take off his opponent's blows both Molineaux and Siki let them land. It was hard for any man to land on Johnson, his defense was perfect. Molineaux, after beating Blake, boasted of how he could take off the then English champion, Thomas Cribb. Odws were laid that Cribb would defeat the American in less than 15 minutes. It was considered a foolish wager to bet that Molineaux could stay half an hour. The match was fought on Dec. 18, 1810, at Capthill common, in the neighborhood of East Grimatead, Sussex, about 30 miles from London. The rain came down in torrents and the roads were a mass of clay. Nevertheless, the crowds wended their way to see this fight of all figures. The vehicles were wounded a 24-foot ring at 12 o'clock Molineaux but in his appearance, he冒了 his cap to the air amid the plaudits of the crowd. This was a sign of defiance. Cribb followed and did likewise. Both men stripped for the battle. In round 3 Molineaux fell, not being able to keep his feet. Molineaux exclaimed, "I can fight no more." The following appeared under Molineaux' signature in the London papers the ensuing week: "To Mr. Thomas Cribb, St. Martin's street, Leicester Square, London, Sir. "My friends think that had the weather on last Tuesday, the day on which I contended with you, not been so unfavorable I should have won the battle. I therefore challenge you to a second meeting, at any time within two months, for such a sum whose general place confidence in me may be pleased to arrange. "As it is possible this letter may meet the public eye, I cannot omit the opportunity of expressing a confident hope that the circumstance of my being a different color to that of a people amongst whom I have sought protection will not in any way operate to my prejudice. I am, sir, your most obedient, humble servant, Witness. J. Schoefield. Cribb gave the black fighter a second chance and on Saturday, Sept 28, 1811, the fight took place at 1811 Thetis Trap, in the parish of Wymondham, in the county of Leicester, very near Crown Point, just about where Lincoln and Rutland counties join Leicester. At 18 minutes after 12, the time set to start, the batting was three to one in favor of Cribb Thomas Molineaux, Virginian, who startled all England by going after the heavy-weight championship honors in the '80s. Molineaux died penniless after failing to accomplish his mission. and six to four that he would knock Molineaux down first. Cribb started bleeding in round two and in round three his right eye was nearly closed. The sixth round found Molineaux bothered with his wrist. Cribb Again Beat Tom The ninth found Mollineaux a beaten man, his jaw fractured and he fell like a log when Cribb met him with a terrific body punch. He failed to come to time within the half minute, but Cribb for good sportsmanship's sake waited. Mollineaux came to the center of the ring for round 10. He made a desperate rush which was unsuccessful and he again fell. Cribb was round 11 ended the slaughter. Mollineaux was out of his head and unable to stand on his feet. The bout lasted just 19 minutes and 10 seconds. During the battle the spectators applauded both battlers. The science of Mollineaux at the opening of the fight was equal to that of the champion. Mollineaux had a style similar to that used by American fighters of today. He savagely denounced Cribb while in the ring, these tactics being unknown in Britain up to this time. The morning after the fight, Cribb in a barchee drawn by four horses laid a call on the challenger. The Virginian had other fights, but he scorned advice and quarrelled with his best friends, especially when drinking. April 2, 1813 found Molineaux in battle with a fellow named Carter. The fight was reported in all English newspapers as a force. Molineaux and Fulmer, 27, 1814, the shrew and constables stopping the fight after eight minutes, the two men were rematched to fight in Scotland on May 31 of the same year. After 68 minutes had passed and only two rounds had been fought there came a strange ending. Molineaux claimed one of Fulmer's seconds had made a foul in pulling Fuller down when he had been beaten all over the ring. The umpires decided in favor of Molineaux and gave him the purse. Molineaux then went to Scotland, where at his hill, Llanarkshire, on May 10, 1813, he met defeat in the 14th round of a bout with George Cooper. Liquor proved to be the rutilation of Mollineau. In 1817 he was found traveling through Ireland showing the stick natures how to battle with their fists. The sun of his prosperity had set. A brief sketch in the Sporting Magazine, Vol. II, Page 230, published in 1818 says: "He was dependent for bare existence on the humanity of two Colored compatriots serving in the 77th regiment, then quartered at Galway. He expired in the bandroom of that regiment on the 4th of August, the shadow of his former self, the last four years he stalked about the country.

Little is known of this man in this country although he was born on what is now Staten Island, New York, on Aug. 5, 1763. He was taken under the protection of Gen. Earl Percy, afterwards the Duke of North Carolina, and held New York in 1777 during the Revolutionary war. The English nobleman apprenticed Richmond as a cabinet maker in York.

He have named the supposed author the majority have had no hesitation about conferring the honor on Lord Douglas, Marquis of Queensberry. One authority has gone so far as to state under his signature that George Atkinson, one time editor of Sporting Life of London, put the rules before the public. Another authority, hailing from the West and known to sport fans far and wide, has held forth the following in a publication devoted to boxing of which he was the editor: "The Marquis of Queenberry rules, which have governed boxed matches all over the world for many years, were framed by the British peer and Arthur Chambers, who fought for the lightweight championship in 1872. The Marquis of Queenberry was a great lover of boxing and in 1865 decided that fighting under London prize ring rules was rather brutal. With the assistance of Chambers, the marquis drafted the rules, etc., etc." Fighter. Not Author For the sake of clarity rather than criticism of the author of the foregoing paragraph, while Authur Chambers, supposedly still residing in Philadelphia, was one of the first of the world's lightweight champions, he never was a contributor to literature, ring or otherwise, did all his fighting with the maulets, and probably never saw, though may, have heard of the Marquis of Queensberry. As to the real frame of the code, as to the way he came to hand containing an interview with the marquis when he was in California in 1891, tells the whole story, as follows: "Well, John Chambers and I wrote them while I was attending school at Cambridge. When there I held for a while a series of meetings on ship of the ring. The amateur cups at the annual spring matches were prizes that many boxers sought. We Chambers and I were delegated to draft a set of rules. We did so, and I afterwards difficult to decide when two men fought which got the battle on scientific points. The rules were written to be so that any questions that might arise as to which was the best boxer, "Well, I rather think the rules were sufficient for all ring purposes. My friend was a think prize fighting rather a brutal exhibition. Of course, I am fond of the prize ring, but I have given up to them. In England the prize ring has almost been given up; sports of that kind have been on the table for years. I do not attend many boxing games."

Later on the same course a quarrel arising over Moore's whipping by Richmond caused the latter to soundly thrash two members of the Innakillak dragoons. His achievement went the rounds. He won a number of matches, defeating Jack Holmes in 25 rounds by knocking him out on July 8, 1805; on Oct. 8, 1806, Richmond and Tom Cribb entered the ring at Hallus, Sussex. Neither man seemed willing to mix it. Cribb appearing some moment later legs. Both bopped about the ring for about 20 minutes without any blow being struck. A hour and a half passed in about the same manner when the umphs, as they were called at that time, gave the match to Cribb, while the followers of Richmond bowled at the decision, which they felt should have been a draw. Richmond eventually left the game and turned to business. He opened a place called the Horse and Dolphin on Martin's street, London, and his house was well patronized. When Molinaeux came to England Richmond found him without friends and being a man of the same color he took the stranger in, handing him until Molinaeux started on his downward path. We have here in this country today a number of fighters whom Louis Philal may find he will have to fight before getting a chance at the elusive American white fighter, Jack Dempsey. There is Harry Wills, heavyweight, who rose from a jockey to a contender for the greatest honors in the prize ring. Wills can hit and his reach and his science may stop the Frenchman. It is quite likely that the public in this country will be given a chance to see the new European heavyweight matched against Kid Nortok, a light heavyweight of New York. Whether he does or not we have had in the history of modern times only two heavyweight champions, Jack Johnson, champion of the world until dethroned, and Battling Sikl, light heavyweight champion of the world and heavyweight champion of Europe. matches is because I find it difficult to keep myself from joining in and knocking some one out.

Wrestling was also held there, and in 1873 Mr. Chambers ventured as far as holding a face meeting there, a meeting where he was racing, a burdle racing, and run under the Jockey club and National Hunt rule. Meyrick was the judge, and Nad Smith of "Bell's Life" fame, clerk of the course. The Original Rules The original and correct Marquis of Queenbarra rules are very plain and simple, but they have been hashed, slashed and mashed up by every Tom, Dick and Harry to suit themselves. But here they are as they were first framed: Rule 1. To be a fair standup boxing match in a 24-foot ring, or as near that size as practicable. Rule 2. Wrestling or hugging above the knees. Rule 3. The rounds to be of three minutes' duration and one minute before the match. Rule 4. If either man falls through weakness or otherwise he must get up and move to do so, the other man means to return to his corner, when he is to be resumed and leg the round is to be resumed and expired. If one man fails to come to the scramble in ten seconds allowed he must give the eree to give his奖 in favor of the other. Rule 5. A man hanging on the ropes in a helpless state with his toes off the ground. Rule 6. No second or any other person to be allowed in the ring during the match. Rule 7. Should the content be interference, the reference to man, the interference, the reference to man, and place, as soon as possible, for the match to be won or lost, unless both men agree to draw the stakes. Rule 8. The gloves to be fair-sized being gloves of the best quality and men. Rule 9. Should a glove burst or come off it must be replaced to the referee's satisfaction. Rule 10.

PAGE SIXTEEN Demand for Beads Grow in America Foreign Markets Are Striving to Satisfy the Call for Woman's Ornaments Ballots and beads must belong together in the mind of modern woman, who is wormed when one was worn before the war and before the vote, because of this. This year's record promises to run far ahead of last year's and last year's record was worth a glance. The woman's interest in and conquested woman's interest in the ornament that is urgently needed to south of an all-important complete costume is quite unnecessary. The figures speak for themselves. France, from the shoes of the entire Mediterranean, from all Juden, from the three thousand beads of the third thousand beads for the United States is a big business, declares a New York Sun writer. Not satisfied with the beads, out with everybody working at the job of decorating the dresses and the shoes, American women the demand for something different has made the bead dealers set the car, the shoes, the shells from the shores of lonely isles that are all but lost on any average map. To keep up with the gowns of Gotham and the hundreds of thousands that are copied from Manhattan, the sea are urged to work overtime, and the Pacific islanders have a chance to eat canned salmon, few more of the fish that are prides of shells are dyed a dozen colors. Other beads are worn as collected from nature. Bushas are stripped of brass and the shells are strung. Lumber nails right in the center of New York are having a good trade in wooden shoes. Bushas that turn out those long, heavy, villainous strings of large black heads of the type that are popular in price and that suit a woman with the strong personality. From Asia and Africa Nothing is safe from the mad desire of the modern woman to have plenty of decoration on her dresses, the way of sewings to hang about her throat. Glass by the ton is turned into beads and carefully colored to suit all sorts of costume. China is used, too. Half the old bones in Asln must be carved into necklace beads. They make a good substitute for ivory. Mother of pearl in many carvings and shapes is a standard Judian market offering. From the cast comes boxes of wooden beads of sandalwood and olive wood. Billions of fish scales are being used to get the tiny spock of remarkable fridescence that is used to coat the hollow beads that serve as the pearls of the populace. Anything that can possibly be made into a head is being worn. Even cheese is turned into beads, and the best are known as Galliles cheese beads. The importers see no reason why anybody should laugh at the name or at the substance strung about the necks of the girls of New York. "Why, Galliles cheese are not common beads. They are one of the finest in stock. They are light, they do not quit, they hold fine luster. For necklaces and millinery they cannot be surpassed at the price. They are not considered cheap, either. They are made out of dry cheese. How we don't know. But they are a standard number." Cost of Beads The cost of the beads may be considered by some to have elements in the quantity of imports from Europe into the United States, as given amounted to a value of $10,000 worth of something over $165,000,000. This total included everything. Last year the women in the United States all amounted to value that they did not have enough and laid out another $11,000,000 on this same necessity. This figure is more amounted for precious stones. That does not amount to very much more than $10,000,000. To the annual bill for tire materials could be added the cost of all materials in the inventory, would be $35,000,000 short of meeting the total outlay for feminine ornaments. In spite of the increase in the amount that cheers America at breakfast time costs far less than the beads the company readily get relief. Apply ZUBA Zinc powder will be shown the next day.

And, of course, the invariable answer is, "The best people in the world," present in the States would respond if asked concerning the people of his own particular section. To dispense with hyperbole and stagnant answers as they actually are, it may be said they are chiefly transplanted Americans and Scandinavians, and in no way different from the people of the caucasian Alaskan environment has modified their habits and character in minor details. Mostly they are of the adventurous type, they would not be in a country like Alaska. The few who became wealthy long ago returned to their original homes, and many of them have lived in stable attitudes; so it may be said we have no rich people in Alaska.

Cabraloff and H. E. Shranler, alleged to have been a "go-between," are in jail. The girl is held in the juvenile home, and her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Saranak Mataslan, are in the city jail pending an investigation of the child's story.

But, then, the vast majority of the men and women are of the masculine persuasion. Children born in Alaska are far more rugged as a rule than those born in the States; and for some positive reasons, that far more children born in school children soon outdistance other children in the competition of the classroom.

Besides there has long been a gradual decline in abandonment of Alaska. At present we have far less than one-half the "permanent" white population we Of social life there is none in Alaska entitled to that name. An occasional abbreviation "theater" and an occasional picnic in the summer exhausts the list of social activities. Even privateimmunities and occasional societies.

[From Pullman News] When a man has traveled some 5,866,560 miles in the service of the Pullman company he can lay legitimate claim to being considered an old timer. And that is what James B. Newsome is, the oldest porter in Pullman employ, who completed 52 years of actual service on Sept. 10 of this year. Putting it more graphically, Mr. Newsome as a Pullman employee has traveled a distance equal to more than 235 times around the world at the equator. For 45 years Mr. Newsome ran between Chicago and Denver by various routes. He knew all the leading men of that section from "Buffalo Bill" to the James boys. Today at 70—and not looking within 15 years of it—he is operating a parlor car over the Alton between Chicago and Springfield. "My mother taught me never to quarrel with a fool, but to humor him. That's what I do. I study my man and I know him. Travelers are more reasonable nowadays, but they expect more service." That is Mr. Newsome's philosophy in a nutshell. He says it still works as human nature has changed little, if at all, since his mother gave him that advice. There are so many features connected with this vet porters work, that it is easy to apples over each other in picturesque importance. The only way is to set the Michigan Central, with its Michigan depot at Lake street and the lake front, where the Illinois Central's tracks now lie, was the scene of Mr. Newsome's start in portering. There are tracks now lighted by candles. The porters carried candies at night in passing through the sleeper and sometimes the months' sleeping car service to his credit he was transferred to the new Pullman hotel car as a walker, and he was transferred to A. B. Pullman, vice president and general manager, and brother of George M. Pullman. Then he went west. Col. Welch of the Burlington liked the snappy service of young New Yorkers. "Q," the first Negro waiter to appear on that road. Mr. Newsome's mouth contorted as he conjures up the prairie chicken, partridge, quail, venison and buffalo meat the Pullman diners used to in those good old epicurean days. One Chicago to Denver route traveled by Mr. Newsome was over the "Q system" and the old Kansas Pacific, now a part of the Missouri Pacific and we handed Pacific coast businesses, too. Consequently the young porter and waiter became acquainted with all the people in the town, Fuira, Stanford, Mackays and Hearts of California, but even older settlers. For instance: For instance: One time in Kansas the train was held up 30 minutes to let a herd of buffalo cross over, and Indiana. Yes! In response to the attack which were Gen. Nelson A. Miles, then a colonel, and Gov. Boyd of Storm, Hall stones were as big as by hat and they broke the windows and knocked in the deck (root). A lot of Pawnee women and children rode around the train but they didn't attack us. War paint, scraps and everything. We were glad to see 'em go! Only one hold-up experience fell to the lo of Mr. Newswome and that man was the bounty of the lining at Savannah, IL, but he came as close as he cared to Jesse and I was traveling with him and followers while traveling and Hannah Joe road. The train we could see the James boys mother's house on a hill near Kearney, Mo., said Mr. Newswome. "A deputy sheriff thought the train had to blew off the old mother's arm. The James gang often code the trains but did not affect the Pullmans. The trainmen knew their identity, of course, but said nothing; and they were so loud that loquacious about certain passengers. In that way Mr. Newswome saw Jesse killed Jesse while hanging a picture, and years later met a violent death Creede, Colo., and Dick Little, who was no relative of the present "Line O' the Type of two," conductor in the o' the Type of two, conductor in the o' the Type of two, then there was "Canada Bill," the celebrated three-card monte man, and years later met a drunken disguised as a drunken man, showing a hattel of money —$5,000— in his stock.

We have many college-bred men, some from families of excellent families, and others like everybody else, and their difference from the common herd is not suspected by strangers until they see the use of a silk hat or evening clothes is unknown among any class of Alaskaans. It is not supposed to follow up the prevailing styles as illustrated in the fashion books, and no doubt one competent to judge of such matters would affords both ingenuous and creditable. It is unlikely that any other people in Alaskaus as a whole. And they read everything. The percentage of arsloe books and high-class periodicals is amazingly large. The rare book agent or magazine solicitor who appears invariably makes a cleanup of under any other conditions. "Squaw Man" Now Bare In former times a good many Alaskans became "squaw men," but since the advent of white women such unions have become exceedingly rare. The divorce evil in Alaska has kept pace with its growth outside, but here it never carried the odium once associated with divorce in the States. Indeed, the past history of individuals has little influence in fixing social status in Alaska. A few years ago Alaskan were perhaps the most liberal people on earth and certainly as generous as any. Business depression has seriously affected them, poverty has spread over the territory, and the dollar has naturally grown to have an enhanced value. We have not yet reached the point where we are actually "cheap," but we have reached the point where a prosperous gambler or bootlegger is often a bigger figure socially than a poor school teacher or minister of the gospel. ther argument. As the trains then ran about 15 miles an hour he met with no mishaps. Then he would go to Omaha and lose all his spools playing faro bank at Dan Allen's. "Wild Bill" Hickok and "Bat" Masterson were other wild west acquaintances of the young porter. Masterson was marshal of Dodge City, Kan., in the days of the Santa Fe trail, later moved to Creedo and Denver and became a deputy federal marshal in New York city on appointment of President Roosevelt. He died recently. Col. William F. Cody was known to Mr. Newsome in many ways. He met "Buffalo Bill" when he was escorting Grand Duke Alexis of Russia on a hunting trip in Wyoming, and later saw him frequently, since the old scout lived nominally at North Platte, Neb. "Colonel Cody gave me the biggest tip I ever had," ruminated the oldest porter. His eye gleamed as he thought of the princely gift, but he wouldn't discuss the amount as being "unethical." Mr. Newsome almost saw Nebraska grow up, and known five generations of the Morton family, from J. Sterling of Nebraska City, secretary of the inductee, to his sons, Paul, vice president of the Santa Fe system and secretary of the navy under President Roosevelt, and to his company of Chicago, and the consequent grandchildren, great grandchildren, great grandchildren on his tongue-Boyd, Kountze, Roswasser, Yates, Paxton and Saunders; the rise of Colorado was an intimate story to this Henry pioneer. He knew Senator Henry H. Teller, a senator who later became his latter's millionaire brother, Henry R. Also he knew Horace A. W. Tabor, who made millions at Leadville, and States senator and created a national sensation with his $1,000 nightshirts. Mr. Newsome spoke reverently of the discoverer of Cripple Creek, but the best discoverer of Winfield S. Stratton, discoverer of Cripple Creek, but the best discoverer of Winfield S. Stratton, state was the into David M. Moffatt, banker and railroad builder, Moffatt, who once forced to cough up $1,000 to bottle of nitroglycerine, that investigation proved to be water. Incidentally, Moor and Moffatt died broke. "Once back in the old days," narrates Mr. Newswise, "I was hauling nurses to Newswise, I was hauling Indiana, to Denver by way of Cheyenne. They went upwain in Choyenne. They went along in Choyenne. I went along and took a seat 'way up on the top row, like in a circus, you know. Some 'ore stickers shot off their guns and started to clean up. I was so scared I just fell into the ground. I shot off their guns and started to make my train. And I stayed there." Named U. S. Grant, W. T. Sherman and P. B. Sheridan were passengers with Mr. Newswise, and so was Queen Liliukokalani of Hawaii, lost her kingdom some 30 years ago. VA. HAS ONLY ARSENIC MINE An arsenic mining and refining plant at the little town of Branton, Ontario, Canada, world devoted solely to the production of arsenic. Pure arsenic is a steel gray material that is also better known in the form of an oxide, the white arsenic usually produced by the refineries, and Branton ore is a gray mica quartz formation. When taken from the mine it is placed in a jar and placed in jum tubs known as a catherc. Here for 45 minutes it is subjected to a heat of 8,000 degrees Fahrenheit in the form of an oxide on "baffle" plates in a flue 319 feet long. The deposit, a dirty gray powder full of arsenic, is placed in a furnace, and eventually the pure oxide is ground to a powder and placed in barrels by an automatic pump after which it is ready for shipment. ELECTRIC AID **TO FLY KILLER** A new line frame consists of a panel frame connected to a transformer which is attached to a wire, carrying a current of 500 volts, cross this frame. The frame is placed at the attractor to the wires that are attracted to the wires they are killed by the high voltage. Rat traps on the same lines have been perfected. Just a little while ago any Alaskan would include his power for $10 or more in his business, be as indifferent to its advertisement in the community as one of those who indulge in the unimaginable would be indifferent to the unimaginable or disapproval of the common herd of a bequestion by himself. Today he has not yet given up; he wants his act to be seen of men, and is not he doesn't give up. It is a study in the results of poverty. He has not given up, and her poverty all comes directly from the system of bureaucracy administration which has prostrated industry and business throughout the ter- Indiana Total 30,000 In addition to the white population in Alaska there are about 30-40 percent of racial groups. The most intelligent are the Thinktabs, or Totem Pole Indians, strip known as the Alaskan panhandle. Many of them have adopted the culture of the Alaskan corded all the civil rights of citizenship. The inhabitants of the Alaskan islands, or Alutae are a monarchy. Formerly the two branches were quite warlike, but the Russian traders offered them to new localities, and broke their spirit. Their old customs are extinct. They live by fishing, like most other coastal peasants, and are at least no serious liability. The Eskimos, of whom there are a dozen separate tribes with differing northwestern and northern coast line. They are harmless and little disposed to progress, but the development of them, in time to the rank of useful citizenship. The interior native is an Athabascan, or Northwest Indian, who reaches the coast only in the neighborhood of Cook Inlet. In all essentials he is a duplicate of his racial brothers in the States, but somewhat different. He is somewhat inferior to the Sloux or Commanche. Such, briefly, is the population of skans as it is today, of skans as it is to be less and likely to be different. Small Men of Africa Before Christian Era A race of dwarfs called Wambbutu, in Africa, were known to exist nine centuries before the Christian era. The geographer Hiparchus located these pigmies near the equator, close to the equator of the earth. Henry M. Stanley, the African explorer, discovered them 23 centuries later, says the Huntington (W. Va.). Advertiser. Stanley thus describes these pigmies with this ancient and interesting race. "Near a place called Avetiko on the Iurt river, our hungry men found the first male and females of the pigs, Eden, peeling plantains. You can imagine what a shock it was to the poor little creatures at finding them, nearly double their own weight, and nearly double their own weight, and black as coal. But my Zanzibars, Sudanese, prevented the clubbed rifles and cutlasses from extinguishing their lives there and then, and the woman was the height of the man was 4 feet, that of the woman a little less. He may have weighed about 55 pounds; the woman was baked brick, and a light brown fell stood out very clearly. So far as natural intelligence was concerned, within his limited experience he was not inferior to any black man in our camp." The inhabitants of this forbidding region were in keeping with their sinister surroundings, being wild, savage and vindictive. ALABAMA By Katherine Kent Lambert Enaley, Aia.

He is evidently a kindly hearted gentleman, for he replied. "Work is getting scarce and they are laying off people in the department. don't want them to work. I'd off them are hard and I do not know where they would get jobs. If they catch you, they won't excuse for keeping them, so I just let them take it easy." There are 140 employees in his department, says the president. Forty of them could do the work, but all are given monthly vouchers on the treasury, which you and I as treasurers of the government must pay. The fault is not entirely with the employees of the government. On an individual level, ability, intelligence and industry as do men of the same class from which they come in the business world. The trouble is with them. Humanity is weak. It usually takes the course of least resistance, and when they are placed in a position where the retention of their jobs does not depend on their own work. Place them where they are not expected to put forth their best efforts and where their fellow employees are not expected to put forth their best efforts where there is no hope of advancement through superior attainments on industry, and you will find that they are not expected to propensity for shirking their work. Where Civil Service Lacks Civil service offers no reward for good work and threatens no punishments, no nontool, a dreary treadmill of exience. Naturally a sense of irrelievability, the difference pervades the departments. Inefficiency in the government service nothing but federal employment must always be less or more of a private snap, to be handed out as a to the fallback Jackson's "to the victor belong the spoils" has rung round the world. The condition grew so bad that public opinion forced an unintended ranlot. The condition grew so bad that public opinion forced an unintended ranlot. The condition grew so bad that public opinion forced an unintended ranlot. Nothing daunted, the plunderers quickly found a loophole through which to avoid its enforce- It was very simple: The civil service law requires that the commission help the three candidates who have the highest rating on its eligible list. These certifications are accompanied by a letter of recommendation, and letters are either from the applicant's congressman or his political loophole. The law expressly forbids any mention of the political affiliations of the applicant on his papers, and the commission is always known to the department chief, who is more influenced by this law than the usual fitness of the applicant. He always selects the man who has the proper backing. Proper backing in the civil service law, he belongs to the right party. Politics Cuts a Big Figure Now, the bosses can't be bosses unless they have cohorts to boss. These cohorts must be kept in line with political plums, which the congressman must furnish, or face the wrath of the powers that be at home; consequently, it behooves him to be on the job when the boss wants a civil service appointment for one of the faithful. He bestires himself, gets in touch with the department head, who for reasons noted above is always willing to listen to him when selecting a candidate. Therefore, civil service appointments are made for political reasons rather than for the especial fitness of the applicant. The merit system is a beautiful ideal, but it is not functioning properly. It has not freed itself from the political octopus. It cannot do so under the present law. This law would have to be changed by Congress, and it is a slow moving body without much propulsive force. It needs the power of public opinion behind it, especially so when the proposed change would mean a loss of political patronage. Women of Paris Are Enemies to Home Library Paris, France.—As the women of Paris recently have been beating the men in competitions for places as librarians, a discussion has arisen over women's attitude toward books. Writers in general seem to agree that women is the avowed enemy of books. This view, which will seem strange to Americans, is accepted by the French as a fact not necessary to discuss. They seek only to show why, and how greatly woman is hostile to books. One of the principal publishers is quoted as saying that in the retail trade women constitute only 1 per cent of buyers in France. Others dilate upon the difficulty their men friends have in keeping a library of fine books and in adding to the collection. Men's love of books, and women's dislike of them, are cited as having caused the break-up of many homes. M. de Bersaucourt, author and book lover, holds it to be the duty of a bibliophile to remain a bachelor. He cites the cases of men who have to buy books secretly to avoid outbreaks of wrath from their spouses, and others who keep books hidden. One Parisian book lover, says M. de B., smuggles home purchases under his coat or in his pocket, meanwhile disarming his wife by holding out cake or candy to her at the front door in order to gain time to slip the volume onto the shelf unnoticed. GLANDS TRIED UPON PRISONERS San Francisco, Cal.-The first operations in female gland grafting were performed inmates of the San Quentin penitentiary three years ago. Dr. L. Stanton has just made public, discussing reports from Paris on the same subject. The operations have shown less satisfactory results than those performed on men. The artificial gland has been transplanted into women by numerous surgeons throughout the United States. The glands used are usually those of female sheep or swine. The results in the two cases here were almost nega- forecasts of the season made from reportings during the growing Production of Cotton Small; Blame Weevil While there was a large acreage in cotton this year, the worst weevil got into the cotton and caused damage, and drought in many sections materially assisted in keeping down the production of cotton. The hardest hit of any of the cotton growing states, their production being about 40 percent of the total in 1920. The farm price of cotton on Dec. 1 averaged 23.3 cents per pound, which ranks fourth highest in the history of the industry, being exerted only by the price in 1917, 1918 and 1920. Washington, D. C. This year's cotton production is the smallest in 20 years excepting last season's small prices it is the fourth most valuable ever grown, with an aggregate of $1,134,608, not including the value of lintter cotton and cottonseed, which total many millions of dollars more. Statistician estimate the dimensions of this year's crop in bales to be equal to a cube 600 feet square and 600 feet high. The crop this year was placed by the department of agriculture in its final estimate of the season at 4,167-1,700 bales equivalent to 9,964,000 bales of 500 pounds gross weight (478.4 pounds of lint and 21.6 pounds of baggage) and the department's final estimate is smaller by 17,100 bales than any of the government's sales of 500 78.4 pounds 178.4 pounds by 171.0 pounds (large, bold) This is by 171.0 pounds government's reduction in Prices!

The book is designed with a delightful design modestly grains this example of his or her art with the initials "T. N." We have searched the pages of the book, as ing, as you do, about the owner of these initials. Some day we are going to ask the editor to salutify our curiosity on this But to get back to the material inside of the book itself: There are sixty-two different poems altogether, most interesting magazine over the destinies of which this same editor presides you will recognize many of them, and something that makes this volume different is the personal portraits of the writers of these verses which account for the most interesting anthologies are more of less just encyclopedias where one finds in a hurry, if you are lucky, the paraphrases of the authors forgotten or the proper way to spell the name of the author who is causing so much discussion in the magazine when you wish to settle an argument or when you need a handy reference book. This book is different from the other books his readers word portraits of the writers which make you feel as though you were being introduced to the advantage of being led off in a quiet corner to hear the intimate gossip that follows, or in our judgment, the advantage of being led off in a famous people who are both interesting and famous. The list is too long for repetition here. There is a book that tells you about a year-old postess. Others by our beloved F. P. A., the three Benets, Laura, A. Stephen and Vincent Will, and John D.

One would thank the author a thousand times than a chance to hear Lizzie Woodworth Reese sing that delightful thing on "—— the idleness of tears" from her book *Death*, by Charlotte Mew. Then there is one poem from Christopher Wheeler, who describes dozen times and will read as many more times again. We wish we could put a copy of this book in the hands of someone who knows the hands of those who are students. We hope succeeding years will bring another anthologies edited by John Purdy.

The writer would support anybody for the White House who would promise to appoint a Colored man register of the Mr. Harding made that promise, you will remember. The writer would not break a promise. Very rich man never go back on their work. They got rich and would not salt; by keeping their word. To have a good name tell the truth. Also, Mr. Ford might open up Muscle men would be employed there. Making a living for your wife and child men would be your life. Don't let anybody fool you. Mr. Ford, the Negro "the mission of jobs."

By the publication of "John Ruskin's Letters to William Ward" by the Marshall Jones Company, this correspondence from the great master of line and color to his friend and pupil is given to the literary world for the first time. Although privately printed several years ago in England in an edition limited to thirty copies, this is its first published appearance in either England or America. Revealing, as it does, sympathy and affection, humor, impatience, and satire, this collection of letters shows the intimate side of Ruskin's character and forms in addition, a unique book of do's and don'ts for those who would draw well or teach others to do so. Seventeen letters containing pen and ink sketches are reproduced in facsimile. Alfred Mansfield Brooks contributes an appreciative introduction and the volume further contains a biography of Ward by his son. Book on Football In his introduction to Percy Haughton's "Football and How to Watch It," published by the Marshall Jones company, there is a striking resemblance, between the best of Haughton football and any characteristic O.

Then the plot thickens, as the story reaches whereby the mood of tragedy or comedy is established." The Marshall Jones company announce the publication of "Romance and Tragedy," by Prosser Hall Fry, and "America in Spitzenberg: The Adventures of the Writer for the late John M.
