We were no separate quota assigned but instead were invited to join with the citizens of St. Louis in raising $3,000,000 to meet the common needs of the city. From the very first committee meetings, our members were invited to be members of our group on the executive committee. on the big gifts committee, and other functioning committees of the campaign as a whole. This situation held good throughout the campaign, into the daytime report luncheon.
The second outstanding feature of the campaign is the denomination of $2,500 by Mr. and Mrs. Malone. This, of course, established a new record for an individual gift by a member of the campaign to $2,500, $2,500, $1,000, $500, $250 and so on. There were 120 gifts of $250 and over. From this campaign will be used in the erection of five new buildings in various parts of the city. One of these buildings is in the rapidly growing section of the city, and will be given wholly to the city, and will be made to make St. Louis the first city in the country to have two modern buildings for our group. In addition to the three gifts, the third feature coming from the campaign will be the establishment of three boys clubs in conjunction.
Efforts of the race in this campaign were under the direction of R. B. De Vere, the secretary of the international committee of the Young Men's Christian association. The chairman was Frank L.

VITALITY AND ENERGY IS BEING QUICKLY RESTORED TO OUR WOMEN AND GIRLS
Astonishing Gains in Weight, Strength and Vitality Reported by Thousands of Women in the Few Months Since the Famous St. Joseph's G. F. P. Was First Introduced to Our Women and Girls—Simple Test Proves How Quick It Works.
Old and Young Allike Are Being Benefited by This Master of Catarrh, the Malady Which Has Been Causing So Many of the Girls and Women in Our Group to Go Day After Day in Bad Health and Thin, Weak and Undernourished.
Women Now Depend on St. Joseph's G.F.P. To Restore Their Vitality
Perhaps the most noticeable and outstanding part of the remarkable things, which the phenomenal medicine known as St. Joseph's G. F. P. is doing for our girls and women who were weak and underweight, is the quick, permanent increase they are having in their weight as a result of using it. And the convincing part about this is that it is not only in one or two cases, but in thousands of instances wherever our women and girls are using this marvelous medicine, which is now creating such a sensation in all parts of the country.
What every woman in our group needs to carry her through the period of trials and worry is plenty of strength, steady nerves, rich red blood and an abundance of robust vitality. The most important organs of woman are so closely linked up with the functioning of the entire system that any slight irregularity quickly tells on the nervous system and the result is nervousness, weakened muscles, irritable disposition, loss of weight and that don't-care, morbid feeling all the time.
To help stamp out this demon Catarrh, which is the direct cause of so much misery among our women, and thereby produce a condition of health and strength with plenty of energy and vitality, St. Joseph's G. F. P. has been found to be the most valuable of any medicine which has yet been introduced to correct such troubles among our women.
Many of the girls and women in our group, who are taking St. Joseph's G. F. P. regularly, now say that it is by far better than anything else they have ever used to build up their delicate, unsteady and rundown nerves, their muscles and tissues, and carry that peculiar something through their blood to their most important organs to stamp out the Catarral inflammation, which has been the cause of their continuous nervousness, irritability, cramps, loss of appetite, irregularity, dizzy spells, fainting, nausea and that terrible worn-out feeling of hopelessness. The fact is that G. F. P. is the first direct specific for this trouble, and that is the reason it is doing more for them than anything they have ever tried before.
Make This Simple Test
If you are not strong, well and happy, try to walk a considerable distance the first chance you get and see how much you can stand without your feet touching the ground. St. Joseph's G. F. P, regularly and faithfully as directed on each bottle, and compare the amount of walking or anything else you can do with your feet, to see how much G. F. P—and weigh yourself, too, so you can see how much you gain, and thereby prove beyond a doubt that G. F. P. is nourishing you and really stamping out Caarass with its life-giving blood, the living of the most important greens.
St. Joseph's G. F. P. is now well known in thousands of our homes because or daughter is regaining her health, strength and vitality, using this wonderful technique, faces, buoyancy of spirit of these women, and the way they are telling their friends and neighbors about the wonderful proof of its amazing power.
If your druggist hasn't got St. Joseph's G. F. P. send $1.00 and 25c extra to cover postage charges to Battalion pharmacy, Memphis, Tenn. for q. pharm.
MEMPHIS WOMAN FINDS QUICK RELIEF FROM PAIN AND SUFFERING
Mrs. Rosa Wall
Nature supplies our women and girls with strength, energy and vitality sufficient for their needs. If they take care of this precious gift it will carry them through a long life of health and happiness.
But only one woman out of a hundred realizes the true value of her health and strength until she sees it leaving her. Too many people live up their strength too fast nowadays. They waste their vitality in careless living, by over-taxing their strength and drawing on their nerve force to keep them going. Only too soon these women find their precious gift—strength and health—gone.

And then they don't know what to do. It is very common for our women when they find themselves in a weak, nervous and run-down condition from those painful and distressing ailments, such as headaches, backaches, pains in the sides, back and limbs, irregularity, loss of appetite, sleeplessness, dizziness, fainting spells, nausea and cramps, to try first one thing and then another through long months of disappointment and the result is they steadily grow worse and only spend their money, to have all hopes of regaining their lost health and happiness, dashed to the ground.
The Question of the Day
The question then, is: "Where can thin, weak, undernourished women turn for relief and help?" The answer to that question is now easy. Thousands of beaming, happy women, glowing with health and filled with ambition, energy and new hope through using G. F. P. regularly, point out an easy and certain road to health.

The quick, positive way, in which St. Joseph's G. F. P. is relieving thousands of our women and girls from so-called "female trouble" and restoring them to health and strength with plenty of energy, vitality and youthful buoyancy is causing many of our women, like Mrs. Wall, to come right out in public and tell of their pain and suffering and wonderful relief using this phenomenal medicine, so that all women may know of the help and strength they can get using G. F. P.
Mrs. Rosa Wall, the attractive woman of our group, who lives in the pretty Douglas Heights subdivision, Memphis, Tenn., says: "I suffered from ovarian trouble and was getting so weak, run-down and thin I did not know what to do. I would have spells of dizziness and sometimes I would suffer so much from indigestion I could not sleep.
"Nothing I took seemed to do me any good until I heard about St. Joseph's G. F. P. and started using this wonderful medicine. The first bottle helped me so much I kept right on taking it. I am now on my sixth bottle and feel ever so much better. I never have any dizzy spells or indigestion and just feel full of 'pep' all the time. All my friends have noticed how much better I look and how fast I am gaining weight. When I tell them I am taking G. F. P., they get a bottle of this great medicine too and start taking it. Every one thanks me for telling them about G. F. P. as it is helping them so much too. I wish I could tell all the women in the world, who suffer did, about the wonderful G. F. P."
If your druggist hasn't got St. Joseph's G. F. P. send $1.00 and 25c extra to cover postage charges to Butler's Pharmacy, Memphis, Tenn., for a bottle.

WHITES HOLD LYNCHING BEE IN FLORIDA
Pale-Face Barbarians Go on Spree
Port Myers, Pla., May 30—Church services here were suspended Sunday in order to form a mob which later lynched two men, accused of walking too close to a white girl in the main section of the town. Ministers announced from their pulpits that a lynching would take place if the sheriff was successful in apprehending the man. Thornton, the two men named by the woman as her "assailants." The mob was headed by the leading business men of the town, according to reports made to the police authori-

Women and children formed a long line in the main street through which Nathan's lifeless body was carried. He played a pistol to the dead man's head and fired two shots. Nathan's fingers were slashed from his hands and passed around as souvenirs. His body was covered in so many parts missing, that it was buried in a small basket. A prominent physician in the city is in reverence, a juicy piece of a necklace and several teeth wrapped in a blood-stained letter of warning demanding that he advise all of his face to leave the town.
Thornton, the second man, lay on his own when he was overtaken by several men in an auto. When questioned he said he was a teacher and wanted to secure employment. He know nothing about the "assault" on the girl, and protested his innocence until he was released when a member of the party yelled, "let's have a little fun." A man in the ground with a bullet through his head. His body was placed in the middle of the road and over 20 minutes passed over it. Every bone was removed.
The men, women and boys who took part in the lynching are known to the authorities, no action is expected to be taken.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
CLANDESTINE LOVE RESULTS IN 2 DEATHS
Aslatic and African world. Some day that friendship will inevitably be put to a test if the white man learns to speak English, or stupid course of erecting barriers to save him from being healed by those whom he despises. There is no excuse to the way in which he insists on fanning its flame. For it means in the end war and bloodshed and in the wars of resistance and civilization. Perhaps this will be a lesson to the proud Japanese to watch his white brother a little more closely and show more respect to his other dark skinned relatives.
Tragedy Stalks Path of "Triangle"

DEMOCRATS TO SUSPEND "JIM CROW" LAWS
Claim That They Can Stop Insults
Washington. May 30—What appears to be a well founded report is going to be held here, connected to the coming election efforts to surround the remaining Race vote following the tremendous effort to various "exoduses" the Democrats have decided to make efforts to suspend Jim Crow state and municipal laws, begin a widespread vote in the state, a shorter Washington U. S. capital city itself, will be called upon to discontinue the practice of allowing the state at the different railroad stations, and if the word of one prominent Democrat is being used, something the days of separate cars, waiting rooms, schools and churches, as well as the barring entirely of our citizens in theaters, soda fountains, etc., will be a thing of the past. If this is be brought about it will only be what could be expected to happen if the Republican party, and it will be a reform worth the vote which is expected to be given in return for it.
It is a noirous fact that members of the Race are barred from eating in the restaurant in that the Capital District is well known Northern politician (white) invited a Race man of equal prominence to the restaurant mentioned and were informed by one of the menials that "Colored" were not accepted grossly insulted and declared in unmistakable terms that he felt

BONUS POLICY IS GOOD FOR FACE VALUE
Experts. Use 20-Year Endowment Plan
Washington. May 30. — Because there are so many different statements being published concerning the bonus bill recently passed by Congress, service man, who are vitally interested, have found themselves confused. With a view to clarifying this situation and helping the veterans understand just what the bill means, the Veterans bureau has issued a table of factors showing just what each insurance policy is worth. At present no cash settlement has been made between the veterans and those whose period of service entitles them to $50 or less. In these cases checks are mailed to the veteran as soon as his claim is made. In addition, insurance policy is issued, the value of which is determined by days served in the army, navy or marine corps. One dollar per day is allowed for emergency service. It is easy to figure out how many days you have to your credit, and with the table of factors given you can compute the approximate value. Table of Factors.
The table of factors and instructions follow:

CITIZENS, OPPOSE THE FOSTER BILL
The judiciary committee of the House of Representatives has reported out House bill No. 3228, known as the Foster bill for the creation of an industrial commission to study the race problem. Congressman Celler from New York had introduced a similar bill but merged a bill with that of Congressman Post with the role of chair into committee. This bill provides for five commissioners for four years and for the chairman who is to receive $2,000. The first year's appropriation for the work of the commission is of it this may look good to some people. Since three of the commissioners are to be Colored men it provides for fat jobs to ambitious holders.
POLICE MARK TIME ON FRANK MYSTERY
The world has been shocked by the grief which has come to the Frank family in Chicago on account of the death of their child. For which there seems to be no adequate explanation. Death knows no color line and grief passes over all barriers and hurdles. The girl's child is still alive. The admit that they are baffled for a solution of the murder. At last they have included one of our people in the investigation. But that is a far-fetched theory. No man from our ranks who could write such an intelligent letter as the one he wrote to the police could possibly be associated with the poor unfortunate picked up by the police just because they seemed to have no special home and ranging around in the neighborhood.
The system of the police is to pick up some poor friendless Colored man when they are up a tree and yet want to help them. The police have done this infamous case has puzzled all the best talent and all the experts of which the police force could boast. They have done this and has gone out to the bereaved family. There is not a man or woman who reads but what wishes for the speedy recovery of a child such a system no man's child is safe on the city streets. How can the world go about its business if the police fail to fall upon the innocent without their apprehension and punishment?

Enrollment of pupils in this period has been on average daily attendance in 1922-23, 98.42 per cent, the report points out, is believed to be the highest for the number of pupils enrolled to be found anywhere on the American side.
"It is the current opinion," says the report, "that the public school system of the Virgin Islands is the best in the world." The school environment is ample and the school buildings are roomy, well ventilated and well cared for; the teachers are competent, and the pupils are well advised in their work and to sign up multinationism in evidence among them."
There are 29 schools on the islands, divided as follows: Public, 17; private, 12; sewing, cooking and woodworking are offered in the public schools and much emphasis is being placed on mechanical arts, home economics and practical agriculture. The described subject School orchestras have been organized in the three junior high schools, the instruments having been donated the American Red Cross.

President Dudley of the Agricultural and Technical college of North Carolina, located in Greenbush, has issued statements in which he justifies his action for which he was criticized by the Association of Colleges for Negro Youth.
His statements follow:
"Editor of the Defender: A friend called my attention to your recent publication of the resolutions of the Association of Colleges for Negro Youth in which the president of Howard university is commended and I am condemned. I am sure your readers will be equally as surprised as I when they learn the facts of the situation by your kind enough to let me give you. As the circumstances are practically verified by correspondence, no one can truthfully contort the statements of the truthfulness of my statement or if anyone is sufficiently interested he can easily secure a full copy of the correspondence as sent to me by applying to his president or to me.
"As I desire to avoid personalities with a possible focus on tension on a principle rather than on the man, I shall continue as I began by omitting individual names and by substitution thereof official titles.
"The correspondence means anything it shows beyond question that I have received from the sith of February that knowingly did encourage our English teacher to break his contract with us before June 30, 1924, the date of expiration, before we could get a substitute, and before we had released himself, so soon as a substitute could be secured. We have known and respect the maturity of years, but in this matter I am utterly unable to reconcile his actions with the morals of a Christian, and to reject some of the members of the Association of Colleges for Negro
ably be given. The Clayton building, shown here, is one of the most valuable estates in Sapulpa and was owned by Clayton was buried from the church which his sister, Mrs. C. Thompson of Chicago gave the community several years ago. She and her husband, Thompson, who recently graduated in dentistry from Northwestern university, went to Sapulpa to attend the funeral. Clayton, unlike many other wealthy youths, refused to be buried in the church. He trollled his own estate and invested heavily in property in other cities.
Youth, but I can only account for their commending Howard's president for assisting in breaking an agreement that they were not acquainted with the circumstances. Surely it is dishonorable for one school to encourage a teacher to leave one school without his contract. Surely if 'there is honor among thieves' there must be honor among schools. I am forced to admit that I unwittingly did violence to its sense of dignity and of honor in commending the president of Howard university in this remarkable transaction. "To me it seems that the association record as condemning as unethical the action of President Dudley in broadcasting in educational and political circles the difference President Durkee of Howard university.
"If Howard's president took our teacher in violation of contract, which then I had a right to protest. On Feb. 13 last I sent my protest to the president only. I never marched. I never protest. I had a right to conclude the president had decided to ignore same. I regarded as aiding him. I did not protest. I determined his policy of ignoring the protest should fail; hence the 'broadcasting.' I succeeded and am satisfied. I assured the teachers and students that he would remain, his fake beginning of work in February and his first day of teaching. My January check make his return as a teacher impossible. No, I am not desiring the teacher's return. My Howard's president my emphatic protest and endeavor to convince him that he is an important teacher. Now this was a purpose. If the association thinks I am 'unethical' it is my candid opinion that he is an important teacher in behalf of humane schools and of the youth our schools are training.

Large Crowd Hears Commander Schick Address Comrades of Giles Legion Post
A breath of the old war spirit of gift and a feeling of intenzo radiance, he was the midst of the large audience that attended the memorial service of Grace Presbyterian Church Sunday afternoon. The program was directed by the Grace George L. Giles post No. 7, of the American Legion. Attorney John Giles, the Giles post, was master of ceremonies and, after giving some of the history of the purge, the soldier, introduced Charles W. Schick, state commander of the Giles post, who was the speaker began by asking his comrade to join him. Immediately afterward he launched into the Memorial day address, immediately afterward he day was solenized in Summer, S. C., by a group of school children. Decoration day was held in Gettysburg when Abraham Lincoln delivered his Confederate Relief how he, as a boy, had stood in the Gettysburg Confederate soldiers strew flowers on the graves of their fallen comrades. The feeling of duty; later it became somewhat of a custom, and is now recognized as one of our national symbols.
The speaker by way of justifying his talk had seemed to convey, included audently, "why want any more war? we know what war is." We have thousands of men still in the hospitals suffering from the effects of war, and we have one way of preventing war is to be prepared for it. We click then commended our force for its patriotism—devotion to this country in spite of the injustices he helped us to loyal to your flag and I love you the same as I do to you. "But still you have a duty to perform," he continued. "I want you to help us. I love you. I have lost 80 boys there and we are doing everything possible for them.

Arrangements have been practically in California for the visit of Charles M.

Brown of the University of California, delivered in that city about July 15. Arrangements will also be included on the trip. Mr. Morris will leave Chicago about May 15, Indiana, Kentucky and Tennessee, returning to Chicago will leave on May 21. Daine, Omaha, Kansas City, Denver, Cheyenne, Spokane and Portland. His return to New York will no doubt be planned for the summer, but tours already have been planned for Florida and South Carolina.
DON'T EXPERIMENT WITH "PIMPLE CURES"
Do you think so little of your delicate skin and face as to allow your hands to permeate? By all means use only the thing which has stood the test of time. The skin of your pimples, blotches, bumps, "breaking out", eczema, etc. Black skin is not only stood the test of time, but you are sure of it—when you know that they are selling at the tremendous rate more than two million packages a year. The way they are economically priced is the way they make to make them so popular along with their dependability. The 36c size is much as the 32c size. All dealers have both Black and White Ointment and White Soap, as well as Black-Adv.
Of course we know that our medicine does benefit the large majority of women who take it. But that only means we have received no benefit is most astonishing. It only goes to prove, however, that a medicine specialized for certain definite ailments—not a cure all the time—process; not from drugs, but from a combination of nature's roots and herbs, and can and does more good than hastily prepared prescription. You see, we have been making, improving and refining this medicine for over 50 years until it is so perfect and so well adapted to women's needs that it is the medicine the women out of 88 out of 100 women who take it.
Its reliability and recognized efficiency has gained for it a sale in almost every country in the world since 1980.

HERE is your chance to win for your very own a beautiful, expensive console or upright phonograph-or any one of 100 prizes offered members of the Race. It's your chance, also, to become famous talked about by millions for your brains and skill!
Paramount has a wonderful, new Blues record-sung by the world-famous "Ma" Rainey, Mother of the Blues. This is a special, super-Blues hit-sung by Madame Rainey upon request of thousands of her admirers. She calls it her "Mystery" Record, because as yet it has no name.
"Ma" Wants You to Name It
This record is so good—so unusual—that even "Ma" Rainey or the Paramount company couldn't think of a name good enough for it. Then 'Ma" suggested that we let the public name it. The "Mystery" Record is Paramount No. 12200 an easy number to remember. It's a real Blues on the order of Ida Cox's famous "Grave-Yard Blues," which most of you have heard. "Ma" Rainey sings the Mystery Record accompanied by Lovie Austin and her Blues Serenaders—featuring Tommy Ladiner offering the public another prayer on his famous, mournful, praying cornet. On the reverse side of this record is another "Ma" Rainey Blues-"Honey, Where You Been So Long."

BASEBALL LURE
At home he could not be content,
Altho no one displeased him there;
And so he went, on pleasure bent,
Into the balmy fresh spring air.
No sooner had he closed his door
‘Than headed for a baseball game
He saw two hundred fans or more;
* Both old and young; both strong and Jame.
‘Then visioris came of days gone by, -
‘When he was but a country youth;
Of how he “nailed” full many a fly.
‘And sometimes swatted like Babe Ruth.
“Twas he who climbed an old rail fence,
+ And plucked a home run from the air;
And then was lauded as a prince
+ By all the country maidens fair.
Altho {t took his last spare cent,
He did not stop to ponder long;
‘ So strongly was he pleasure bent,
‘That soon he was among the throng.
* —Edward A. Neal.

BROOKLYN KICKED OUT OF EASTERN LEAGUE
PART 1—PAGE 10
STRONG AND KEENAN HAVE FALLING OUT
Nat Refuses to Attend Directors' Confab
---
Offering to continue with the organization, but refusing point blank to play out the scheduled games between the Lincoln Giants, a rumor that is given great credence is to the fact that strong personal feeling between Natasha and the other players so strudged that rather than play his club against the Lincoln Giants, the Royal Giants mentor placed his club position to be ousted from the East.
Showing action of varied nature, the commissioners picked a committee to ratify and revise the league in Philadelphia at a near date. Since the Brooklyn Royal Giants were a traveling club without a home park, it simply dwindles down to the fact that the league clubs will stand, but where the Royal Giants were scheduled the date will be filled by another league attraction and the quota of games per club will be increased accordingly.
The advisability of accepting another club in the league was discussed, but as a result of clubs represent all of the A-1 clubs in the East and it would hinder rather than help the organization to build a swaker club. All league games scheduled with the Royals are considered automatically cancelled and for that reason all clubs of Strong will be called off. The Bacharach Giants were scheduled for a double header with the Royal Glen on Saturday and with the league ruling, the Seashell club will pass up the outcasts.

White Colleges Trail Force Trackmen
Springfield, Ohio, May 27.—Wilberforce college athletes were the luminaries of the fifth annual Y. M. Field meet, which was held Saturday evening at Zimmerman field, capturing all of the college division and rounding out the day with 71 points out of a possible 90. The other games in the college division were divided among Antlech and Wittenberg athletes.

the Wilberforce
team was the in-
dividual star of the meet, garnering a total of 19 points on two firsts and three seconds. The cold weather and adverse winds kept the records down, especially in the pole vault events, but the team was able to maintain their class, the winners taking the honors by only a small margin. The Wilberforce men appeared at the meet in the vaulting team. From the outset it was clear that the Wilberforce collegians would be hard to beat, but the easier by the fact that only five contestants, representing both Wilberforce and Antioch, were in the list against the invaders. Each of the Wiltenberg and Antioch athletes placed in at least one event, but Wilberforce took too much reserve strength, with the fact that they were soon far out in front. Each of the high point men will be given silver or bronze medals. The Collegiate winners, Harry Pool, 16; Caleb Holmes, 16; Chelsea Levy, 16; Fitz Prenton, 2; Gladion Rosemant, 2; Charles Kirk, 2; Neil Safford, 2; Nathan Pool, 2; Truman Safford, 3; Kedrick Johnson, 2; John Clarke, 1; Robert J.

Wendell Phillips Field
Day Friday, June 6
Two hundred and twenty-five contestants and still going strong. This is the record of entries in the first field day at the American Field Day June 6, at the American Grants park by the well trained athletes of the Wendell Phillips School. This is the second field day to be attempted since the big field days held attendance at last year's meet was all that was needed to prove that the part was correct. The public are interested in the physical development of the boys and the general public are interested in the school to provide competition or the students and to encourage. Phillips has developed some of the training programs for the students and will be seen in the meet. These athletes are right on edge to take part in the track events for the prizes which will be awarded, to the winners in each event and school records
A big parade will start from the school promptly at 12:30 p.m. and we will go to the park at Shields Ave. The parade will begin at 1:00 p.m. The school's famous band, 50 strong, followed by four complete companies of musicians, two score of the funniest, bats, two score of the funniest, clowns, 250 of the most beautiful of the students, and the entire student body grounded by classes, with their banners, pennants and the entire student body grounded by classes. The following officials have been chosen for the week: H. A. Young, K. A. Young, H. R. Bryant, Rutter, starter; H. R. Crawford, official timer; A. Lucas and O. R. Bryant, starter; H. R.

TIGER FLOWERS A REAL FIGHTER
BY JAMES J. CORBETT
(Copyright by King Features Syndicate)
If Tiger Flowers were white he would be middleweight champion of the world or, as king-pin aspirant, he would be a nurse for his every ring appearance.
Dut Flowers is a Negro, the greatest one-fourth of what he would get on him on the "color line" pretext—and Flowers must fight for sums about one-fourth of what he would get on him on the "color line" pretext—and Flowers is one of the most pictureque fighters in the ring today, and one of the most remarkable fighters in human form it is the whirlwind from Atlanta, whose trio of victories in human form has given tremendous prestige to Georgia as a fight-producing state.
The Negro, a southswain, is 20. He has a top weight has been 164. Yet he has fought men—and whipped them—who have had to fight heavier than year he has had to fight light heavier and heavyweights almost exclusively because the 160-pounders—white and black—have studiously avoided
Flowers made his debut in New York, after a year of effort to break the record for the highest-pound Norkolf who had knocked out Kid Norfolk. Flowers chopped Anderson to wobble and an obsession with his weight. His showing was such that blaze New York fight critics went into superlatives. Flowers returned to New York in two weeks, and wrapped dimy Dury in every one of their 12 rounds, and then conquered by Jack Renault, in each of the 12 rounds. By that time skeptical New York lost its skispeeder middleweight that had invaded the cleverest and the brainsiest middleweight that had invaded the flowers was performing portering chores when Walk Miller, the Atlanta promoter, came up with a job in his gymnasium. Flowers, under Miller's teaching, learned to box in his lessons, and the fight night was under roster in the ring.
The Negro never has lost either a referee's or a popular decision in any bout that has gone the full distance so far where the scheduled number of rounds was fought he was so far out in front in points that there was no possible chance for a difference of opinion. The Tiger is called "the white Negro in the boxing game." He is one of the cleanest living. He is married, has a child, is deacon in a JACOBS FIGHTS RHODES TO DRAW
JACOBS FIGHTS DETROIT STARS RHODESTODRAW TRIUMPH, 6 TO 3
Marion, Ind., May 22—Rube Rhodes of this city and Eddie Jacobs of Indianapolis fought a ten-round draw based on a crowd of 100. Jacobs was beating Rhodes in landing his blows, but Rhodes' aggressiveness during the entire bout earned him a draw. The opponent was a talented liminaries. The boxing show was staged by Jack Edwards and the large crowd seemed to be well pleased with the show. Leslie Treber referred the man to Rhodes weighed in at 121½ and Jacobs at 119 pounds. The first four rounds were on even terms, both with and without knockouts and not until the sixth round was there anything that looked like an uneven round. Rhodes seemed to have the advantage in the sixth round, with both hands standing off and hammering Rhodes' head. Towards the last of the bout Jacobs was beating Rhodes to the punch and in the eight round seemed to be winning one of his powerful lefts to the head.
In the ninth round Jacobs landed numerous lest and rights to the body without any uprune. He blocked a fast poke up until this time and was slowing down. In the last round the fighters met in the middle of the ring and captured body shows for several seconds. Rhodes continued to force the fighting, although seemingly weak. The fight ended with both fighters boxing in the middle of the ring. There was not asemblance of a knockdown during the fight.

church, has his own home, built a special one for his parents and has his own car, and his other relatives. He is the idol of the Negroes in Georgia, and because he is ever modest and retiring; because he is always the one of the worst carousse or dissipation, and "knows his place," as they say in the South, he is extremely popular in Florida. Flowers probably is the only strict vegetarian in the ring game. He will not eat meat of any sort because of an aversion to cutting the flesh of animals. He is not a fan of the last he is a human torment, racing, stabbing, hooking, retreating, ducking—and then in again. His man looks like a heavy-booted lumberjack in comparison, and Flowers swarms all over his footman before the other man knows what's hap
Flowers is a southpaw with a tricky circling motion that makes him an almost always away from an opponent. Rather, he retreats sideways and attacks from the side. The team will be constantly turning, and as a result is almost constantly off guard. Miller devoted nearly a year to the team's efforts to win the York ring. He succeeded only because he agreed to take an insignificant percentage. The crowd that Flowers' greatness and of his spectacular style of fighting spread before he fought again. That night Flowers appeared and Flowers appeared the third time the arena was jammed.
"I want to get either Harry Greb or I should claird Miller." "Till make it a worthwhile proposition for either or both of them. If McTighe will meet Flowers' decision he can have Flowers share of the purse. If Greb will meet the Tiger in a decision battle he, too, can have the Tiger's money for that."
"Some fighters have drawn the color line all during their careers, but Grebte McTighe are not in them. McTighe womens little title a Negro and Grebte womens fought many black warriors, and not one of them ever made a proposition, as we I am anking in behalf of Flowers. I regard Flowers as the greatest man of his weight in the world today, and I know he can prove it if either he can find it a little leisure time to test out the Tiger anywhere at all."

RAIN FACTOR IN HILLDALE'S WIN
Darby, Pa. May 24.—Overcoming a four-run lead in the first game of season at Glenview and Hildale, the Atlantic City crew crept up behind the Boldenites in the fifth frame and hammered over a brace of markers in 100 yards of the eleven-mile seashore crew in the lead. Rain fell in torrents, making it necessary to call the game, and the score reverted to the fifth innings with the Hildale team bringing the long end of a 4 to 3 score. Even with threatening clouds hanging over the ball park about 100 yards from the park tree to the locals and the Bacharach Glants led by the peeleers John Henry Lloyd hook up in a grim second place in the Eastern circuit.
"Rats" Henderson, the star heaver for the Barchach Giants, pulled a second inning to leave the start of action before the first inning had been played. Johnnie Harper succeeded him and van Kamp, the first inning pitcher, but pitches pitched a clever brand of ball after the third inning. "Nip" Winters went the route for Hildale and the big pitch out a home run with one on in the second inning. The home crew had gathered one run in the first and added another in the third, and the run getting for the Darby dalges.

GREEK FRAT MEANS RUIN TO ATHLETE
Allegiance. Not Fitness, His Aim
By CHARLES H. WILLIAMS Secretary, Treasurer, G. I. A. A. and Physical Director, Hampton.
Hampshire, Va. May 30.—The good and evil influences of fraternities in athletics were discussed at the recent session of the Colored Intercollegiate Athletic association, which was held in Lynchburg, Va. The best presentation of the subject was given by Dr. Walter G. Alexander, graduate manager of Lincoln university and vice president of the C. I. A. A. For some time there have been rumors among some of the college circles that the selection of members of various teams and especially the selection of captains and managers was a connection. One speaker at the meeting declared that at his institution this spring, an attempt was to elect a baseball manager. He said that the team's certainties remained in session all night and could not elect a manager. Finally he was called upon to appoint
"If we could conceive of fraternities being 10 per cent better than we would deserve some serious consideration, for all of us, this wholesome influence in its entirety. If, however, we could conceive of fraternities as mental, they would certainly be deserving of the most serious consideration, to eliminate them from college life. If, again, we could conceive of fraternities that would be partly harmful there would still be need for the fraternity to direct our thoughts and activities towards curtailing the evil fraternities have certainly made a very decided change in the life of our fraternities have been very largely instrumental in changing his viewpoint of
"When I was a student at Lincoln, 25 years ago men at college and around the two literary societies, namely, Philosophian and Garnett, were outside, outside of our scholastic work, as these two volunteer student organizations, in the rivalry within these organizations for the honor of being president and as for our interest went, for whenever there was any whole no one apparently ever thought of his connection with these societies, and the time of any of my acquaintances did membership in either of these organizations, the college as a whole.
Spirit of Clannishness:
Partisan Idea
It is quite common information that a union against Mu men or Nu men and the question of preferment will depend on the fraternity and the strength of the fraternities in combination. It is therefore important that the welfare of the fraternity rather than the welfare of the union be that this kind of channiness, which becomes so thoroughly and highly desired, is likely to prevail even after he has gone into the word. Men will seek to be included in the other, not with regard to the attachments of a common alma mater, but with regard to the encumbered in college of seeking the companion. It was a common report during the football season last year that the other two men on the teams. This would happen when the quarterback and the other were same fraternity and, according to reports, that the coach thereto intended to disrupt his entire back field unless the other two men in the back field. Under favorable conditions it was easy to disrupt other men who were equally as good. It might happen that the attempt to use this same star repeatedly would result in
"This means, then, that something must be done and done before a very important condition, and this can only be done by making student bodies realize this condition, and this can only be done by making student bodies realize the interest of the school be made subservient to the interests of the fraternity, interfraternity councils have been formed, and very successful because the members of these councils were not willing to support the various graduate institutions for the success of the council.
"To my mind nothing could be more important than the very subject of fraternity interests of the various graduate chapters than this very subject of fraternity interests of the various graduate chapters because that the majority of members of graduate chapters realize the conditions it seems reasonable that they should willfully take steps to help correct any and all errors in their own suggestion would be that all graduate chapters at some early date their own suggestion to confer on this matter with the faculty of schools and represent them in student life, and that in all activities, fraternial or otherwise, every student in school be done for the welfare of the school.
Nashville, Tenn. May 30—In a game that was replayed with thrills the Fisk university Bisons defeated the strong Ole Miss team in 4 to 4 before a large crowd of fans.
Irving's home run in the nine inning, and the victory to the Fisk team. Forker did the hurting for Roger Williams and the Brister, Peoples, Talent, Malley and Long starred for the losers, both Ball and Emmy carried the brunt for Fisk.

WOMAN TELLS HOW HUSBAND WAS KILLED
Says Rival for Love Did Slaying
Raleigh, N. C. May 30.-Mrs. Ellen Bobbitt, wife of S. B. Bobbitt, well-to-do farmer of Zebulon, who was found dead in his bed with his left jaw bawled away and a shotgun beside him, in the city jail where she had been held since May 5 by order of the coroner's jury, made a complete statement of her husband's death to the Peace Lloyd Tilley, implicating Robert Basket, who is also in the county jail.
---
According to the Bobbitt woman, Basket came to the door of the room in which her husband was sleeping on a couch. He placed a shotgun close to Bobbitt's throat and fired. Then he turned his gun on and ordered her to take down Bobbitt's room in the room. He placed the gun on the porch beside the dead man. The woman quoted him to the two men saying, "I will kill him and they'll think he killed myself. If you say anything I'll kill you and if anything happens to me there are other folks around him." She said that Basket had been trying to get her to be intimate with him for some time, but that she had not done so. She declared that he believed that if he could get her husband out of the way, he could make her do what Basket was angry at her husband, according to the woman, also because Bobbitt, whose tenant he was, had refused to advance him money with the money.
Coroner Owens said that Mrs. Bobbitt and her daughter, who has also been in custody, would be released but that a mortgage for the house would be required in order to hold her as a witness in the trial of Basket.

The police say that Miller was sent to the store to steal stolen goods in 1807; served months for vagrancy in 1808, and in 1818, on Oct. 31, was sentenced for stealing and with the shooting of Florenza Black.
Barron Wilkins, the slain business man, was known to be one of the most notorious criminals throughout the country. Barron was never known to swear and would hatch an employee for so doing. He was drowned down. Friends do not believe the story of Miller and think that he spent money about him when the appeal

Old-Timer Recalls History of Barron
BY JULI JONES, JR.
An outstanding character with a past record that holds its own with any commercial Race man has passed away. Barron Wilkens of Washington, D.C. started out to make a few films for the race in the days when a man of our Race's greatest goal was that of a head-ache. He worked a white barber shop. Barron did not take kindly to any of these ideas. He was a natural leader and winner of good-will of men in every waltz.
He started out as a bell boy in different watering places of the city, and he began. Barron soon attracted the manager of the hotels and became a popular head bellman. He was polished, gentle and could handle all the tasks he was assigned to. As a head bellman he saved his money and waited for the opportunity which would open broader paths for him. He happened at the hotel in 1980, and years ago. He out-bid all the white bidders for the restaurant privileges. This was not a financial success, but he was able to have taken $10,000 for the experience. Although he was popular in St. Louis he felt that he could do better as a chef and the Grand Union Hotel, Saratoga Springs, N. Y.
After a very successful season at the Springs, Barron came to Omaha to invest in his earnings. In these days the most prosperous business in New York is the little business bought by the Lifetime business located on 35th St, near Eighth Ave, without a thought that the little 30 by 18 in New York would be a New York. The Little Savoy turned out to be the biggest money maker for the world. It was almost impossible to get a seat in it from 1 o'clock in the afternoon until 5 in the morning. Every visitor to the "big city" took in. The best trade from Broadway to the city was money poured in, and he handled it wisely. Barron Wilkins was not a gambler nor a good-time fellow. His business helped his friends and the poor. He had the traits of the famous politician Jim Sullivan, who never turned down a job.
Little does the outside world know that Barron lost over $15,000 in outings that he once saved Williams and Walker during their hard struggles to keep the show on the air and Williams and Walker promoted another one, "Abyssinil," the show that started in 1995 and was the first trouble. The three people in Washington, D. C., wanted to see the show, but no house would book on it. Williams and Stock, their manager, refused to finance the show in the Convention Center, where every dollar he had to swing the deal at a cost that was far over the amount that the show was worth in late 1995. Just after that he financed the Gotham-Attucks Music Publishing company, which wrote could publish their songs. This adventure was a loser and many other things that he put his Barron Williams was a man who lived in the aeighting for the upstarts. He and his youngsters that came to his place was "Go do something worth while."
BLEW IN TOWN, BLEW OUT
In the Harrison St. police court Monday, Edward. Edcus, 23 of New York, pleaded guilty and just "blew" into town when he was taken into custody at State and Madison Sts. as a suspicious character. "Judge, if you will please let me loose, I get right out of town, back when I came from" he said. He discharged.
NO EXCUSE FOR PIMPLES AND BUMPS ON THE FACE
The boy or girl who is always conscious of their pimply, blotchy, hairy skin, is always drawing more attention to it when they keep making excuses for not looking good, don't get any sympathy, and don't want it is not necessary to keep putting up with this sort of thing. Ointment, and Black and White Soap, were introduced in this country thousands of people who had been troubled by acne, and skin, full of bumps, for years are now happy, because they find it gets rid of it. Black and White Ointment is economically priced, in liberal packages. The $5c size contains three ounces of the Ointment and the Soap-Ady.

NAMES POUR IN FOR WORLD TRIP
New York, May 30—It is announced that one of the places to be visited in the mid-winter Aladin cruise to the West Indies January next is the Barbados islands, where, more than a century ago, Scotch and Irish rebels were bought for 1,500 dollars. The rebels, in the class of the islands and mud slaves, the descendants of these rebels have remained in a backward state since the 18th century. The better class and the dark subjects on the islands looking down on them and treating them as outsiders, so that they have steadily degenerated until they are no longer a part of a strange throw-back in the human race. They have existed largely through in-breeding, which has been productive of disease and numerous
An inland visit to the homes of these forgotten whites will be made by our people from various parts of the country to the Panama canal, the cruise.

PYTHIANS RECEIVE WELCOME IN FLORIDA
Sanford, Fla., May 30.—More evidence that the attitude of the race toward one another is changing and becoming more friendly is shown by the action of the white people of this town during the meeting of the 36th Grand Lodge of the Church of Python just outside of Plovdiv which was held in this city, May 10 to 22. The white Chamber of Commerce and the city administration of Plovdiv, members of the uniform rank and visitors of the Race, who crowded the small city. An athletic field of ten acres was occupied by members of the city for the uniform rank encampment and the police force was practically suspended during the three days of the session. The city officials assured the members of the city that they were done to make the visit a pleasant one and when the meeting began the secretary of the Chamber of Commerce personnel attended to the needs of visitors.
The session of the Grand lodge was the most successful ever held. The lodge was organized by the state jurisdictions, N. W. Green, supreme chancellor of New Orleans, declared at the opening session Tuesday that order amounts to over $400,000 and membership is over 18,000. W. W. Green has ordered the general, its grand chancellor and since his first term, which began in 1910, the hall has paid out over $500,000. The lodge has ordered the $490,000 from a deficit of $5,000. Roscoe Conkling Simmons, supreme lecturer, delighted an audience of thousands on Monday night, at which time the mayor and members of the Chamber of Commerce were present. He said
"I want to talk about the Jim-Crow car. A Jim-Crow car is a car with 40 people and 29 seats. The conductor has his office there, the porter has his office there, and the butcher, the fellow who sells his wares on the train, has his store there. Then, if he doesn't have a white man, there isn't a white man in Sanford who wouldn't give a Negro his money's worth if he went to trade with him. How can people think that a black car would run a road station and pay a dollar for two-bits worth of service?" His talk was warmly applauded by both races.
