BURKE The Postim ballroom, a building, builfing, of which John manager, was the scene of the Jack Hunter "The Plantation Special," scheduled to leave Chicago over the Illinois Central railroad Sunday afternoon for a long journey to Rosdale, Miss. "collied" with the "Great Northern Special" in the 12th St. station and was completely wrecked. The plantation train, born in the brain of G. W. Harding, a white planter representing the backwoodsmen of Mississippi, conceived the idea that there were thousands of our people in Chicago praying to get to the cotton fields of the South. He planned a wholesale raid of the side and set his machinery in motion. He kept it up. He parked, editor of a "how and then" newspaper, and Clarence Powers, headquarters were established at Harar employment office. 2323 State St. Harding had been duped to believe that 600 families would have withdrawn from the job. He stood his hopes were wrecked when he stood at the station and greeted only 12 subjects ranging in age from 18 to 70. He commanded assistant passenger agent of the Illinois Central, stood close by. "he remarked to Harding, "We can't give you any reduction. Just at this moment a giant locomotive steamed slowly by and stopped. Three coaches crammed with dark people that came all the way from Arkansas, Mississippi and Tennessee hopped out unburdened with luggage and escaped his ragged followers and escaped to a Loon, hotel. Parker, his handy see the show with another woman and went to the midnight ball. Mrs. Hunter also attended and asked her husband to take her home. Mrs. Hunter said to have refused and Mrs. Hunter went home, got her revolver, came back to the hall and asked her husband again to take her hummer. He again refused and then turned away and was shot in the back by the jealous wife. Dancers and the "Shuffle Along" guests scrambled for the door. It is said that Euble Blake halted several then performed. They were bound across Indiana Ave. on their way to the ball and gave them the news. Mrs. Hunter is one of Indianapolis' 400. Mrs. Hunter was rushed to the City hospital in one of the dancer's cars. He is reported to be in a critical condition. Mrs. Hunter was arrested and charged with assault and battery with intent to kill. OUTHLAND" LS TO MOVE man, gave the Harding bunch word clock and added that each should "hurt" that man will do with them is problematical. Harding apparently came to Chicago under misguided influence. His team, backed by the short, he seized 18,000 hand bells on the South side and augmented this appeal by sending out a warrior into the city, bringing the glory of the cotton field and the Sunny South. He told his listeners (those who had nothing else) that the lynchers had changed; that the hand that once held the lyncher's rope and the molts had been replaced by reformed and would function without regard to color. But his host could not see it that way. He marveled at Harding's colossal nerve and wondered how the city would permit him to come here as a labor force. So Harding threw in jail and even murdered for such practices. The Illinois law permits slave driving Southern plantations in search of prey without the slightest molestation, while in Mississippi a decent and respectable Northern farmer in search of prey would be slain on sight. DRINKS POISON The police are investigating the reported poisoning of George Scott, 23, 458 Bowen Ave. No particular have been learned, but it was stated that while despondent Scott drank iodine poison.

Dec. 14—Mrs. Mary Diebold, 21 years old, born in Baltimore, Md. arrived as a stowaway on the British steamship Wateness, from Barry docks, Wales. Friday night, Mary was discovered when some miles out at sea. She was anxious to meet her husband, who is in this country, and not having the passage money she hid away while the ship was lying at its dock. Mary is a fine looking girl and is quite brilliant. Her husband, Oryson Diebold, 24 years old, was in the States troops in the recent World war and Mary met him while he was in the service five years ago. She was expecting him at the station to appear. She is now at the Gloucester immigrant station and will be given a hearing before a special case of inquiry. As she was born in Baltimore, Mary will be released and allowed to go to New York to make her home.

The alleged robbers, Robert Ferguson, 17, 130 W. 137th St. and his chum, Allen Scott, were arrested Saturday night. Ferguson formerly shined shoes for Carr and was discharged a few weeks ago. Knowing where the day's receipts came from, he entered the window which they broke to gain entrance and helped himself. Ferguson was caught by Carr's brother, who was posting on the corner at 135th St. and Lenox Ave. with a brand new pair of shoes and overcoat. Upon being guson squealed on Scott, who was soon found and placed under arrest.

THE NEW YORKER When the engine running two runners number one at Rochester, one on which Mrs Wash. was riding was sent out of that station as section number two and the third section was behind that. At Forsyth a stalled automobile is said to have caused a stop on the first train. Train running as section number two was flagged and the brakeman on that train is said to have gone back to flag number three, but the brakes on rockets which these brakemen are suppose to place on the tracks. This is claimed to have been done but for the engine on section three, that section was caused by the heavy fog and rain affecting the sight of the engineer on section three, that section was caused by the heavy fog and rain affecting a wreck that will go down in the annals of railroading.

Van Hagen, Sr. and wealthy residents of Chicago, and whom she had known for years as regular pas. en. on the world famous crack train. Mrs. Washington had known since he was a mere boy. She worked faithfully with an ax and helped bend back the twisted steel until both were taken out. Then she took the rain and the cold, unmindful of herself. For eight hours, numbed from the exposure, with only a night and a few hours of cold, she worked, an angel of mercy among the suffering, administering to the dying. No nurse on the battlefields of France could have more debriefed and injured were taken from the last two cars. It was nearly 9 o'clock when passengers insisted that her labor ceases.

She insisted that nothing done nothing out of the ordinary—all heroes and heroes do that. She was in bed, not injured, but had been sent to a physician's quietness. She was extremely nervous from the experience she had gone through. She isn't going to quit working on the road because she will happen again. She accepted a position as manicurist and maid with the Pullman company years ago because it paid her better than following the manicurist trade in the city. Passengers on the train, interviewed by the Chicago Defender reservation, told me a different story to tell. They sing loud the praises of Mrs. Washington and it from them we were able to tell the story of the work of this lone woman.

Irving Maurer Honored by Columbus Citizens at Urban League Banquet Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 14.—There was no color line at the banquet held Friday evening, Dec. 7, at the Second Baptist church when the Columbus Urban league and the Blue Triangle branch of the W. Y. C. A. tendered a farewell reception to Rev. and Mrs. Irving Mauer. Rev. Mauer is the successor of the late Dr. Washington Gladden, pastor of the First Congregational church, and has been president of the Columbus Urban league since this organization was founded in 1917. Mrs. Mauer is the chair of the committee on Colored work of the Young Women's Christian association for some time. Dr. Mauer resigned the position of president of the Urban league because of having been a member of the Academy of Beloit college of Wisconsin. Appreciate His Work The Urban league presented to Dr. Maurer a loving cup and the Blue Triangle branch of the Y. W. C. A. Maurer. Mr. Maurer a beautiful silver vase. Mr. Maurer referraled the following statement which was made at the Optimist club that he dedicated to our people of Columbus: Rev. Maurer's Speech "Because of its position, a sort of border state of the North and South, Ohio and Columbus must inevitably face a growing problem. This contribution will come, not through sociology learned from books, not from abstract studies, but from our common experience. That will determine whether America can develop a common life and community peace, or whether all the blood of the people of the world can dream. It makes me proud to see in my six years here how free Columbus has been from racial trouble, Chicago, St. Louis, Omaha and Salt Lake. And from this source, but we have had none. We are all hurt when we hear the upstart, brainsless Negro talk, and we are all hurt when we hear Negro is perfect. The Race has its fools and its cranks as we have; the Negro is human. But we should learn more of the Negro to be a Baptist-church or to the other fine Negro institutions in the city. See Yale graduates, graduates of other universities trying to build up for the tradition of which it can be proud. "The intelligent, courageous Negroes do not regard it as the millenium when a Negro can marry a Colored girl. That is not their object. They want to found their own culture, a culture peculiar to their gifts. So the idea isn't to do something the Negro do something for himself." Letters of appreciation were received from Eugene Kinclek Jones of the National Urban league; T. Arnold Hill of the Chicago Urban league; T. Roberts of the Canton Urban league; E. A. Cooper of the Minneapolis urban league; Mrs. Joseph A. Jeffrey, who is wintering in San Antonio, and the Cleveland Welfare association and Mayor Jas. A. Thomas of Columbus.

The group of those connected, showing girls and boys of both Races, all smiling and apparently happy in their close associations. But two of the Races among the male members at present, although one of these holds the office of chairman, the writer states that they are bringing the young workers of both Races into close contact, thereby doing away with racial prejudice, houses, and theater parties, lectures, outings and in gymnasiums and it has been demonstrated that through these activities prejudice has died a natural death. Invitations are extended to young men and women of the Race to join and workers and students of both sexes are assured a hearty meal. The motto is "There is but one Race—the Human Race." This publication has received an invitation to have a reporter present at the annual meeting on Wednesday night, Dec. 19, after which time there is a possibility that a more comprehensive article regarding the organization will appear.

He told in his report of work done by the Urban league maintained on the West Side by the league for the past year and how plans are now being perfected to place the center under new management because of lack funds for the league to carry out. The report also showed in a very exhaustive manner the influence-the urban league has had during the past decade. The report also showed the movement between the churches.

The play was written for the Young Church federation by Mrs. Charlotte B. Chorpening of the Recreation School, dramatic play-writing department. The story centers about the efforts of the Colored people to close both races to close up a vicious resort which had been run out of the white community and summed activities in the section in which most of the Colored people live. A group of the Colored woman forms a working arrangement with the best members of that group to combat the complaining white community and joint, known as *Bates* place. The trouble starts with her marriage to a woman whose fine schemes for the advancement of his fellows do not include interests and a showdown is called for.

EX-JUDGE BROWN DIES; ADVOCATE OF SQUARE DEAL Race Loses Stanch Friend When Death Claimed Noted Chicago Counsellor When Edward Osgood Brown, former judge of the superior court of New York, was appointed attorneys before the Chicago bar, died at his home, 1216 N. State St. Auburn, NY, on August 1, 2015, lost one of its staunch supporters—a man who had given his advice and financial aid in many perilous trials. Judge Brown was born in Salem, Mass. Aug. 5, 1847. He received his A. B. degree at Brown university and was admitted to the bar in 1870 and moved to Chicago two years later to take up the firm of Peckham & Brown. Retires From Bench In 1903 he was elected to the superior court bench and appointed justice of the Illinois appellate court to the bench in 1910 and later appointed justice of the higher court. He retired from the bench in 1915 and reentered the bench in 1919. Judge Brown was an ardent advocate of, equal rights and served as president of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People in the bench. Brown was a member of the famous Lowdon race relation commission, appointed by the governor to determine the race record. He labored three years with this commission and concurred in the report of the book issued by entitled "The Law of the Court" which considered a masterpiece on social adjustments. He was also a member of the University club. Mid-day, he was a Democrat by party choice.

Women Now Depend on St. Joseph's G.F.P. To Restore Their Vitality SAYS SHE FEELS LIKE "SPEAKING RIGHT OUT IN MEETING" Arkansas Lady Got to Where She Couldn't Attend to Her Housework and Could Hardly Stay Out of Bed. She Always Felt Miserable Weak and Worn Out, and Part of Every Month She Was in Such Intense Pain She Thought She Would Pass Out. "I suffered from 'female complaints' for about ten years, and finally got so I couldn't attend to my housework and could hardly stay out of bed. I was always says Mrs. A. Caldwell R. F. D. No. 1, Box 42, Forrest City, Ark, one of the best known and most popular cities where she lives. "I always felt miserably weak and worn out, and part of every month I was in such any minute. I could hardly get my breath; I was sick at my stomach; I had the most backaches and haldredness, and my sides hurt me something awful. "I tried one 'female tone' after another, but none of them seemed to me at all. My trouble just kept getting worse, and then I came to them. Then a friend of mine, who is using it, got me to take some St. Joseph's G. F. I. This wonderful girl was away, and before I had finished the second bottle all my sickness and pain left me and I haven't had a chance to feel well and strong ever so much better, my husband says, and the other day when I weighed I found I had gained ten pounds I feel well and strong I feel I work well and either in the house or the field. I just can't say enough for this great medicine; I feel like I want to get back to work." If your druggist wasn't got St. Jo- nny's pharmacy, Memphis, Tenn., for a visit. SEEMED LIKE HER HEAD WOULD BURST FROM AWFUL HEADACHES "Then I began to hear a lot about how St. Joseph's G. F. P. is helping so many of our women and girls, so much of our women wouldn't help me. The first few doses of it braced me up a lot; and it certainly has been done all that could be expected of a medicine ever more. I wouldn't help some more. I would have thought it was wonderful if it had only stopped, those awful headaches of it. It was the rest of my troubles and in addition started me to picking up weight and strength. I didn't know what to think of it. I just can't think of it. It was the rest of my troubles. P. It has already given me back all the weight I lost, and I am still ginning, and everyone who comes into the place says if I am a sample one, they certainly will take it if they ever have any need for that sort of medicine. Instead of being when I leave my work, I go home and do all my own housework now without seeming to feel it, and I am sure all my patrons must notice the inward force in the way I work on them. If your drugalist hasn't got St. Jo- nah's Pharmacy, Memphis, Tenn., for a drugstore. Seldom, in the whole range of human experience, have our women been so surprised and delighted by anything as they are by the almost miraculous improvement which the phenomenal medicine, known as St. Joseph's G. F. P., is now making in the condition of their thin, sick and suffering fellow-women wherever it is being used consistently. And no wonder they are astonished when they see their friends and neighbors, who have been almost too sick and weak from the effects of so-called "female disorders" to care what became of them, are now going about their household duties with a song on their lips and taking part in the social affairs of the neighborhood with as much interest and enthusiasm as any woman who has always been in perfect health and spirits. If you talk with any of those beaming, happy and robust women, who only a few short weeks ago were physical wrecks, drifting hopelessly and helplessly on the tide of life, they will invariably unfold a story of pain, disappointment and depression which fairly takes the heart out of you, and then, with enthusiasm and gratitude shining from their eyes, they will tell you how quickly, easily and completely their troubles and pains have been swept away by St. Joseph's G. F. P. The remarkable success of G. F. P. is rapidly changing the old idea that so-called "female troubles" could not be relieved. This idea was the result of years of guesswork and hit-and-miss methods in treating women for those painful symptoms which are so common among them. The term "female troubles" is itself meaningless and indefinite and would never have been used if the real cause of woman's misery and pain had been known. The failure of so many medicines for women is unquestionably due to the uncertainty and doubt which previously existed concerning the reason for women's weakness and suffering. It is a peculiar fact that no one seemed to know or could find out the cause of all this pain and sickness until the discoverers of G. F. P. announced they had found that it is Catarrh of the Generative Organs, which is causing 90 per cent of those distressing ailments of women, such as headaches, backaches, pains in the sides and back, cramping, nausea, irregularity, nervousness, so-called "barrenness," displacements and that awful run-down, tired-out condition of apprehension and depression, so common among women. It is perfectly plain that when the cause of a condition is known, it is a much simpler matter to treat it successfully. That it is the principal reason for the astounding success of St. Joseph's G. F. P., which is believed to be the first direct specific for the relief of that terrible malady of women—Catarrh of the Generative Organs. 4 SATURDAY, DECEMBER 15 THEORY BASUSE OF NAR PAINS E WHO SUF- ERE WAS NO D PAIN, ARE D TO HEALTH MICINE WHICH S OUT THE SHE GAINED TWENTY POUNDS AND CAN DO HER HOUSEWORK NOW Popular Greenwood, Miss.

This organization composed of representative white and Colored citizens protest against, releasing this film, which has done so much to create discord and bitterness between the races. We respectfully urge that you do all in your power to prevent the protest against, releasing this film, at the same time all Kansas branches of the association are being urged to make it clear to Governor Davis that their views are protected if he persists in releasing the "Birth of a Nation" film. In a letter commenting on the report of Governor Davis contemplated that "I had seen in the newspapers that the board had approved the picture and I am very sorry that they are inclined to take that view of it, for I feel that the governor, that this picture ought not to be shown in our state. It seems to me that there is great danger that it might arouse racial animosities."

It is a condition which is hard to understand. The audience has been categorized and "class" of thousands of our people is taken into consideration. One would expect to see the men and their immediate families present, but these seem to have joined the "great majority" in ignoring this splendid chance for advanced development. A Surprise One of the surprises of the present Grand Opera season is the manner in which about 20 barbers attend all-day meetings. The barbers are more than well known in their profession and their faces are familiar to the writer. We inquired of the barbers at a shop on the South Side for years the reason for the fact that members of his craft seemed to lean toward this highest of all branches of "I don't know," he replied, "unless it is because we find it so necessary to discuss things of all sorts with me. I am not a teacher of my men, aside from myself, who attend regularly and all of us have grown to like it more and more. The fact that foreign languages are used in our classrooms is ordinary, as the action makes the different offerings as easy to understand as does the camera moving pictures. The music is certainly inspirational, as the action makes it will have to close shop early on Thursday night, at which time "Othello" is to be sung and acted.

C., Dec. 14.—The Lincoln league headquarters here is alive with activity on account of the presence of leading men of the Race from all parts of the country who have gathered to present the views of the members of the national Republican Conference. The masterful member of that committee, Henry Lincoln Johnson, the sole representative of the Race, acts as the chairman of the committee to convince Republican leaders that the time has gone by when they may expect our voters to hop aboard the plane soon as their hand plays the tune. Platform Announced These gentlemen stated in emphatic terms the desires of the city for which the Defender has stood and fought for years: 1. Abolition of Jim Crow cars on railroads and street car lines. 3. Employment of Race men and women in Washington bureaus on equal footing with whites. [The Race is tired of the old excuse that white women will not work in the bureaus of women. They will if they know they have to.] Republican leaders who try this dodge to please their Southern friends are going to have something to think about on election day]. 4. The appointment of a Race man or member of the cabinet of the president. 5. Complete control of the government hospital at Tukkegee. 6. The passage of a federal antitrench bill. 7. The full pardon of Race soldiers sent to Leavenworth for protecting themselves from the insults of Southern whites 8. The appointment of appointments in the diplomatic service to members of the Race. 9.

Henry Lincoln Johnson was especially bitter at the reduction of the number of conventions. He denied the right or the justice of the committee in making such a reduction without at the same time reducing the representation of the Congress. To permit the South in violation of the Constitution to disfranchise Race voters and to take advantage of the strength of Race voters in nominating a Republican president was denounced as cowardly and short-sighted. He was the crime of Southern Democracy. The message of the president to the Race was considered as a small beginning to a larger men who knew their constitutional rights and stood upon them.

Rooks, "delivering" with Tony Langston usual sulkendid success. The play itself is of the 'triangle' and has to do with the actions of the business man, and a business man. His time is neatly taken up with his daily office connections, and his hide turns to forerunner acquaintances, among them a washing adventuresess, who, along with the business man, termed a 'certain stratum' 'flat hat'. This woman does not know the business man, she tells her, how one of the 'swell' men who visit the apartment and invades her to meet a man of meeting a 'real fellow' with plenty of money and an eye for the capacity as manager of the estate, setting the building, in which the sample lives is trapped by the woman's handsome girl, in whom he is certain to find much to admire.

A warning. Realizing that the mysteries of religion offer a gigantic appeal for the unassuming distance, many unscrupulous irrelegible vultures take advantage of the human weaknesses and the grief and immoral conduct. The false prophets appease everyone so they can enjoy their promises and claims, enlist the support of thousands of followers, nominations to hold the ridiculousness of their promises and claims, enlist the self-styled Israelite cult of the Mish. To become a member of this colony one had to donate to the king, Benjamin Bentham, to receive its equivalent. Of course if you were without the number of shocks necessary to gain an entire daughter of tender age, be tolerated, apart from your offspring, daughter would become a favored member of Ben's household, which would be raising in age from 12 to 20 years. King Ben posed as their "savior" and they were, in the sight of God, with whatsoever I bid you do, respond without question, doubt or thought, and approached these infant incarnations. HOWARD WRITES Friend Tony: In hush I'm writing you a few very brief lines to inform you of the progress that our people are making. First, they are creating a commercial demand for their productions and serving them most critical, thus increasing the box-office engagement—this alone is enough to cause the walls of prejudice to crumble, commercial world. Second, the engagement of our famous Sibble & Blake Shuttle Along music production at the Hart-Hart week. This organization has the honor of being the first to play this house and have opened the avenue for our many Race productions. First reason, because the music-lovers much tailed-of production must be brought to this city: second reason, because the critics' state "the best show of the third reason—the house was sold out for the week three days before the third reason—the house that has not occurred at this world's greatest productions." Well, old pal, while viewing this wonderful) production I had many reasons to feel proud, and to realize what old Father Time can do for some When I gazed upon Noble Sissle and his wonderful performance as a real man, I was amazed when my brother and self had finished a successful tour with our quartet and Mr. Sissle and my cousin, Dr. John Sissle and my cousin, Dr. John Sissle talked to him relative to the coming season. He knew not what he would perform, but he was ready to star today. Again gacing at that wonderful singer, Lotte Gee, I reminded him of what I did. I did think that when Lotte and I used to voculate, that her vocalizing would make our livelihood some day and I would star. When I hecked that wonderful basso voice of Prof. William Hann it took me to realize that together we as we sang together for some years, touring the S. as members of the band. We can well realize that this has been an inspiring self, so I will tell you, but time will not permit, Trusting that you are enjoying life as usual, I remain, as ever. Your old pal, HOWEVER, HINGTON, Washington Musical Bureau.

WHITNEY "TEMPORARY MARRIAGE" A photoplay so charged with powerful, dramatic strokes and human touches that it causes the spectator to feel as if they are associated with the characters of the story, is the promised made for "Temporary Marriage", Principal Pictures' special production, which comes to a three-day engagement on Monday for a three-day engagement. The photoplay, by Gilbert Patton, shows what constitutes a "temporary marriage" and allows herself to grow up gracefully and naturally. Although they have grown up daughter, their married life is not harmonious because the wife is not harmonious because the wife longs for the thrill of romance. She would retain her beauty which compels her to spend hours in eradicating her waistline. Manners does not neglect his wife. On the contrary she neglected her wife but because he has allowed himself to grow old. The frivolous wife seeks a divorce but before her departure she has been allowed to mallage purposes. She enters the trap which is about to be sprung, and the gay bouncer she murdered. Was he the victim of a jealous woman? Did Mrs. Manners, terror-striken, his fiance who, through his silence, is suspected of the crime What about the vital points are brought forth in a surging tide of dramatic events. One tense situation follows another. The bouncer is held in a tight embrace of suspense until the last foot of film. Motion Picture News By D. Ireland Thomas Notice.

It might even go so far as to say that if it were not for the thrills supplied in our picture form—well, would there be any pictures? "The Last Hour," which is coming to theaters and Tuesday, Dec. 17 and 13, answers this question in the only way a thriller can be successful: its thrills which are hair raisers, according to advance reports. How can the most logical continuity of any picture these last several years, be maintained, without the story—to leave them out would be to destroy the story itself. In many cases the story is the one over for its strength upon punch scenes is filled with obvious mechanical failures at last—the story is over. "The Last Hour" comes from a story by Frank R. Adams. Some time ago it appeared in Munsey's film "Justice." One of the best directors in the business, Edward Sloman, directs the production and it is said he did it. Killed mystery ever screen!

Universal City sent a letter to Rita Welman and to negotiate for days to get it, and then it was used in just a few flashbacks of a picture. This occurs in "The Acquittal," alluded to in the book of Rita Welman's famous stage play, coming to the Owl theater next Tuesday, Dec. 18, for a run of three days. Actual court documents, borne out by the courtroom scene, were used in the massive courtroom scene, and one, a judgment handed down in a trial, and written actual court documents, were used in the oral evidence obtain. The presiding justice had to officially sanction its use before it could be taken from the files and sent to Universal City. An instance of an instance of the detailed nature of the courtroom scene in one of the most gripping mystery plays in the history of the screen. The story keeps the audience engaged, and one by one every person in the cast is suspected of the murder that forms the background of the striking play. Its plot rivals that of the author, as a creator of thrills and mystery. A specially notable all-star cast presents the play, which was directed by Clarence L. Brown, Norman Kerviel and Michael B. Round, with Mary Philbin, and who played opposite Patsy Ruth Dillem in "The Hunchback of Notre Dame," plays the principal male role, and Claire Barbara Bedford, Barbara Bedford, who headed the cast of "The Spoilers," Harry Mestayer, celebrated stage star, Ben DeClyde, vaudeville headliner, and now a werka, who played the emperor in "Merry-Go-Round," and other equally well-known artists appear in the mystery masterpiece.

Here is what a newspaper in Tulsa, Okla, had to say during her recent engagement there. The largest crowd of Colorad people to visit a show in Tulsa for moons was a popular singer, Sara Martin, and her company, who have been filling an engagement at the Dreamland theater this "After the spacious playhouse had the company in good will in the order of fully 140 persons waited on the outside for the second show. The 'Queen of Blues singing didn't fail to those who heard her were loud in their praises.

That was Lone Pine's exclamation when its people observed the wild ride down the side of a mountain in the bright night scene in "The Red Wing" Universal Western attraction, which comes to the States theater on Sunday, starring Jack Hoxie. He rode a hill about a mile from the little California town and rode his horse at a dead run down the steep slope into town, carrying a flaming torch. The horse was so strong that for he and his beautiful white horse were clearly visible against the skyline. There wasn't any chance for the substitution of a double, for the horse to be a stunt, for the time that the start was made until Jack pulled up the village store and spoke "howdy" to the crowd that had assembled there. The unusual riding skill and daring, really a stunt for a "trick" ride and called for a sure-footed pony. Jack has all the attributes necessary for the rider and has never been known to stumble. The rido comes as an anti-climax in the picture, the signal for the ranchers to start on the big chase after the cattle rustlers.

League Town by Making Move William Wallick and Charlie Mills, both of St. Louis, have made application and have deposited their $1,000 million in a national league for associated membership 1. the league as a traveling club. Mills last season operated the St. Louis Stars, a club made up of various men now playing in the league. the directors did not give their final answer at the time, because all club owners in the league are desirous of having Mills connected with the St. Louis Stars regardless of past differences between the owners of that club and Mills. The league appreciates Mills' ability both as a business man and manager to such an extent that all concerned would rather see a baseball team perform, and with him connected with the St. Louis Stars. St. Louis could be made the best baseball town in the result, the honor which it is entitled to. The location of the Stars park is the best of any of the league parks in an enormous expense and if Mills was able to make a success of a park miles out of the park, the club would wonders with the club in its present location—now in the heart of the district where most of his patrons live. And what it really needs is in attendance in the Mound City and the directors are trying to bring pressure to both the club and the past differences they have had with Mills, make him manager and give the clubs one more chance, also, the fans of that city the business system that only Mills can do. Baseball is too much narrowness to exist, namely, the sacrificing of both money and future by trying to sidestep Mills. The St. Louis baseball fans deserve a better life.

I was raised within six miles of the city. I know a few things about that city. Now let's swing over to Philadelphia this year. There were women balling. There were women balling. Most of them either were going or had been to one. If you read the story, you know that were there you know the "breakfast dance" got most of the folks who came over on the New York space station once the direct to the game. After the game is was eat (if you could find a place to wait) and back to dance again. Conditions make some things possible. I dare say most any woman has a sport skirt and a sweater in her closet. I can come over from New York to Philly in a dress to wear to the morning and evening dresses, a short skirt and sweater and stay away from the dances, especially as the social end of the 'Classic' is just important to the dress code. I was at the Roadside and found two rooms set aside for baggage alone. No place to change clothes; no place to eat; no place to know a few friends, Archie Morgan and I got a room together in a private home, one size room for me, one size room for you. We sat on a stool at the Broad St. station with two others for our Thanksgiving dinner. I was a white women and men attending the Cornell-Penn game, all along at the counter, some in sport clothes and some like looking like they were bound for the grand prize. When our women can breeze into a town, go to any hotel, be accommodated, and make the comparison—not now. Our attention was called to the dress of women at the Chicago and Chicago people drove down in their closed cars. They knew it was impossible for them to be white; therefore they came dressed to attend the big reunion after the game at the army and go home. They were air from the "Harvard" style, too. The Chicago Defender is of the opinion that it would be far better if those who feel that they are in the middle and the future of it in the East to come to some sort of, a protective agreement with the Western baseball league. The Lincoln Giants, who raided the Detroit and Chicago clubs for *Pitchers Holland and Dave* and *Bob Feller* were held in a weak schedule. Brown did not make the impression on the fans that the players, won the pennant. The league may not operate if Baltimore cannot support a league club and it is understood by those close to the league, that the Monumental City may be passed up in the booking this coming season. If the "wise men" will get next to themselves and come into the fold of the National Association baseball clubs, even if only for protection against contract jumpers. The slowness of the officials at the Howard-Lincoln game is to be deplored. On a number of occasions impatient and to head the床前 before made a penalty. Now officials knowing the game should be positive enough and fair enough to make it difficult to resist his heliotaxy. It gets the crowd impatient and leaves a question of doubt in the minds of the spectators as to the real ability of those in charge of the game. The decision rendered at once according ORT K YOUNG Get "Pinched" HELLO THERE G SOON H FOR IT YOUNG'S AMERICAN EVENS SAYS- A Little Advice George Moore We Told You So to the rules book will help the game along wonderfully. Our advice to people who go to big sport events and then have a game is to stay away from the event, as it will certainly go along without the kickers. At every fight, baseball or football game there are a few could have been missed. Another rarely Surely if mistakes don't happen it would be an unusual event. Performers should take your attention to the Firpo fight at Madison Square garden, where for $3 handed the gatemen any number of people in suit have been taken into high priced seats over eight times that amount. It will take time to remedy that situation and Nay away if you don't like it, rather than discourage others. There is no bigger man in the present history of purism than George W. Johnson of New York city. George has done more than any man living or dead, to break down the color line in boxing in the East and has about won his fight in the West. He has a lot of have a color on the state boxing commission in Philadelphia, and it is through him that we will see the future of Madison Square Garden. He is out over $50,000 in railroad fares and expenses, but he will make a great difference in the lives of many followers who believe in him and who will back him to the limit. Moore has gone to the front, not for himself, nor the boxers who are in the background, but for color. He has sacrificed the time that should have been spent with his wife and baby boy to make it possible to fight in New York state regardless of his color and against anyone he could be matched with. Moore deserves much credit, much more than Moore has received thus far. Now that the Negro National league meeting has come to a close and the pennant has been awarded to the Kansas City Monarchs who finished in first place in the league and received the "I told you so." If you will remember correctly the Defender in making up its list of standings as it approached the season had Kansas City in first place, the American Giants in second. The Kansas City club did win first place, but Detroit took second and the Kansas City team picked Kansas City and Kansas City won, "Told you so" is right.

SATURDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1923 INSTITUTE HAD GOOD FOOTBALL TEAM THIS YEAR Yellowjackets, Handicapped at Times by Injuries, Turned Out Western Champions Bv F. A. PARKER Institute, W. Va. Dec. 14—By piling up four victories as against only one defeat, the West Virginia College Institute "Yellow Jackets" are the undisputed Negro champions of the Middle West. The powerful team from Lincoln university was the only team to gain a victory over Institute, while among Institute's victims were numbered Simmons university, Kentucky State Normal school, Virginia Theological seminary and college and was the only team to score a touchdown against them, although Wilberforce managed to score three points means he is placement kicked to the skillful toe of Hurd. On the other hand, Institute amassed a total of 146 points. Turner, who scored 41 points, was the only team to have has to his credit four touchdowns and 17 points after touchdown. Eaves led in the number of touchdowns with six for a total of 36 points. Drewery has to his credit four touchdowns and 17 points after touchdown. In the game against Kentucky State normal, Jones who plays center, was the only linesman to break into the scoring column, running 59 to 52 in the field after intercepting a forward pass. The team of this year compared very favorably with any of the teams that were was probably more comfortable to function was probably an example of that any Negro college team in the country. No opposing line manned the team, but the team in the line, in fact, lay the real power of the Institute team. It bore the brunt of every opposing attack and the team was opened Cardwell, Eeaves, Drewery, Turner and Lowry made their spectacular gains and turned in touchdowns. Riggs and Jones worked together like the parts of a smoothly-running machine. Jones was the directing force, and the team was to see every move of the opponents. Ward and Starks proved capable substitutes, so that the regulars were surely missed when taken from the team. Turner, Preston and Sinclair performed well on the wing positions. Of the three, Turner was by far the best, and he was able to take care of the extreme left of the line, but he did a huge share of the work in the back field. His work behind the line during the last quarterback game was even more divided more hair-raising thrills than anything else that happened during the game. He did nearly all the punting during the season, and his punting was more effective pending upon whether the day was or was not his "off" day. His running with the ball, however, was always good, and he was always correct. He was always against his end were doomed to fail. The veteran backkick was about as dependable as usual. Cardwell, Eaves and Drewery were more dependable than Harris and Lowry. In the second game, Cardwell was injured, so that the brunt of the work fell on the able shoulders of Drewery. Drewery was able to well fall, ready, and once more displayed his old form. The team was unfortunate in not being able to depend on the services or both these stars. However, Branch and Lowry, especially the latter, proved capable substitutes, so that, as a whole, the team did not suffer as much as it might have suffered last when there were no capable "subs." Gough and Turner alternated at the piloting position. Gough's generalship was at its best against Simmons. Turner run the team against Lyman. Turner was the best generalliner. This game was undoubtedly the hardest game of the season, and any errors of judgment would have proved costly. But Turner's coolness and stealth made him the minister of until there came the opportunity for which he waited. His promptness in recognizing and taking advantage of this opportunity brought about a touchdown and proved the turning point. ... It is difficult to mention "outstanding" players on a machine-like team in the league, but they are sighting the rest of the team. However, Jones. Turner. Cardwell and Drewery surely play great games, but in the same position, too, in the same old relatable way which has twice made him a choice. He played well in his position, Eaves banged and smashed and circled the lines from the old fullback position, while Saunders and Drewery played brilliant guards and tackles of all sizes and of all styles of play. Riggs, playing his first year of collegiate footballs, himself a lifespan of no mean ability. Only three men will be lost by graduation this year—Eaves, fullback; Moore, guard, and Jones, center. Their graduation leaves Coach Moore in men around which to build next year's team. Besides these 12 there are a number of "rookies" who show promise of development. If the new material is as good as the average student, they will be able that the West Virginia College-ate institute will have another unbeatable team next year.

NATIONAL LEAGUE CLOSES PEACEFUL MEETING ALL SOUTHEASTERN ELEVEN PICKED BY COACH HARVEY SATURDAY, DECEMBER 15, 1923 By B. T. HARVEY Director of Athletics Morehouse College Atlanta, Ga., Dec. 14—When I came south in the fall of 1916 to teach at the University of Georgia, I found in existence loosely constructed Southeastern Intercollegiate Athletic association, having as nominees the University of Virginia, Village, Tuskegee, Clark, Morris Brown, Atlanta, and Morehouse. Since that time even this more or less nebulous organization sent out last year by Mr. Holtford's efforts in the form of questionnaires sent out last year by Mr. Holtford, I am grateful to you for your efforts being in the form of questionnaires before has there been so many apparent needs of an intercollegiate athletic association in this past season. Let me mention a few things this association could do that would have been of great help during the college season, including teams and the general public. 1. The certification and appointment of a coach. 2. Review of decisions on technical points. 3. define and accurate assignment of the championship in all branches of sports. 4. establish eligibility and rules concerning migratory students. 5. Investigation of rumors of poor teams toward visitors. 6. Uniform contracts and strict adherence to same. 7. The result of these observations and personal conference I wish to suggest that the athletic rep team come together and form a Southeastern intercollegiate conference, name them Fisk, Karrville, Morchant, Morris Brown, Talladega, Tennessee State and Tuskegee Institute. 8. A suggestion, my review and selection of players has been based on these teams. 9. The Southeast considers just four teams to be new two coaches in Mr. Abbott of Tuskegee and Mr. Kindle of Talladega. Both are to a high plane of efficiency this year and finally on Thanksgiving Mr. Abbresee and Mr. Kindle are to defend Talladega Talladega. 10. At the same time we regret to announce that Mr. Addison has resigned and returned to Alen university. The season itself has been a series of upheas, with all teams showing rebounding success, while whole the teams have shown better training in fundamentals. However, the team's success has been tumbles, an inability to hold the ball on forward passes and when tackled in the open field. The question of whether the team can much debate, and four teams can boast of only one defeat, Morehouse, Fisk, Atlanta university and Tuskegee, lost to Fisk 6-0. Fisk won three games and lost to Atlanta university and lost to Tuskegee and lost to Morris Brown, 7-0. after Morris Brown had CUBAN LEAGUE BATTING AVERAGE R. H.E.

Allow me to say a word concerning men whom I have chosen in other years and are still playing. I am thinking especially of Leek, A. A. Boss, Tuskegee, and others.

Competition was keener than ever before, and some of the best games in Texas conferences this fall. The cal- er of football played in Texas can- not be questioned among among the names of Heuvels of Virginia Union, Law of Lincelle, Gordon of Talladega, James Milliken and H. J. Long of James Milliken. Starting with the ends. Baker of Texas college is in a class by himself. It is in dead center and the best man can decorate it and the forward passes. Then, too, he can handle an opposing tackle with equal skill. The heutley of Saint Houston gets other players to look for him. Hind Baker in the real requirements of an end. R. Brown of Wiley, Oneli of Prairie View and Nichols of Paunah are other ends worthy of mention. Jermany of Bishop has the call at halftime, but his most disastrous season in years. Captain Jermany played brilliant defense, but Bishop's play. He is a triple threat man, also a defensive star. Hines was a star in the backfield, developed into one of the best field generals seen this fall. Lovestead's Bishop has a great future as a quarter. The halfback-positiones go to Ewell and Ewell's work in the Paul Quinn and Wiley games was so sensational that he cannot be left off this selection. He is one of the best punters in the game today. Weighing only 150 pounds, this sensational player can put up 50 to 55 yards. He is also a fair line plunger, an accurate passer and a defenseman. Thompson and Pollard of Prairie View, Redwine of Texas coliseum, Shaun McGill of Paul Quinn are splendid halbacks. Sheppard of Paul Quinn is assigned to the football field. Sheppard, though doubt, he is the best dripkicker in the South and almost as good as a broken block and play a great defensive game. Sedbury of Paul Quinn is the best orange of Wiley as a punter. Ford of Texas college, Martin of Prairie View played remarkably well this year.

HIGH SCHOOL and PREP NEWS Lincoln drew first blood when White-Hawks forward pass in midfield and raced over the line for a touchdown. He punted. Then business picked up among the kickers on his 32-yard line and the defense on his 20-yard line. He tackle plays. Willerson, Payne and Green carried the ball for three consecutive saves. Rudin Green drop-kicked for the extra point, and the score stood Summer 7-6. Rudin Green dropped 2-yard line at the close of the game. Shortly after the second quarter had ended, the second half began. Summer forward pass and was hulked by Captain Hankin and Grisham on the third play, 15 yards on the roughness of the "halt." The defense stiffened and stopped two bucks and two passes and took charge of the next play. Lincoln lost five yards on the fourth down, and on the fourth down, as Lincoln did in return. The quarter ended as Lincoln scored on the Sunny yellow line. No scores. The third quarter stiffened their defense and both tried the air route, but each was forced to turn the ball over. The third chapter ended as Lincoln attempted to beat the clean forward passes. It was but, clean forward passes.

"THIS DOCTRINE ts unsound, unwise and mis- chfevous, but it fs in harmony with the theory of states’ rights, ‘The practical nullification of tho fifteenth amendment by a few Southern states, which has been unwiscly acquiesced in by the general pub- Me through the application of the doctrine of states’ rights, the same theory ts now being advanced as a Justifgble excuse for the nullification and evasion of the eighteenth amendment in any state or locality where the same may be in conflict with the dominant sentiment thereof. ‘THE MOST EFFECTIVE and potential way in which to enforce any provision of the federal Con- stitution {s to have a national agministration with sufficlent courage, determination and aggressiveness to see to It that the Constitution and all laws made Jn pursuance thereof are rigidly and impartially en- forced in every state and section, even though the same may be unpopular in some’ localities. WE HAVE FREQUENTLY POINTED OUT that the nullification or evasion of any amendment. or legislation would result disastrously and possibly destructively to our institutions and government.
