INDIANAPOLIS CITIZENS WAR ON SPITE LAW To Take Segregation Bill Into Court Indianapolis, Ind. April 30.—That Indianapolis citizens do not intend to submit to the city ordinance which was recently passed, in which certain restrictions were placed upon residential districts, has been made evident by the determined manner in which they have gone about raising funds to take the case to the federal courts. Already $4,400 has been subscribed and plans are under way to start work on other Indiana towns can have an opportunity to pose similar legislation. A formidable staff of attorneys has already been retained by the Indianapolis branch of the N. A. A. C. headed by Larkin Law, the start of work on a case which may reach the United States supreme court in the near future. The law firm of Miller, Bailey & Thomson, founded by the late President Benjamin Harrison, is the white administration with Attorneys F. B. Ramson, R. J. Brokenburn and W. S. Henry, all prominent legal authorities of our Race in this city. One of the notable features of the city is to ask the segregation ordinance in this city is the fact that prominent white persons of this city have interested themselves in the case and are lending their influence to have the law proved unconstitutional.

Bland L. Rose, was arrested during the afternoon in a police raid on a flat in the Mecca building and locked up at the Stanton Ave. station, booked on a charge of adultery, after he and a 19-year-old married girl had been caught alone and unclad in the apartment. Officiers Werle and Morrison of the fliver squad were led by Mrs. Minkle Baskette, 2316 State St., one of the members of Salem, to the flat, 2324, in the Mecco building, once member of the church and another member of the church and a friend of Rev. Rose. The officers pounded on the door. It was opened, according to their story, by Mrs. Evelyn Gibson 600, a teacher at the school, wife of Fred Gibson, chair singer of the church. She was scantily attired, they said, with nothing on but under garments. The minister, minus his clothing, was found in the bathroom declared, Mrs. Lee, landlady of the flat, had gone out on an errand leaving the couple there alone. Girl Confesses The police gave Rev. Rose and the girl time to dress and then to go to the defense reporter, Mrs. Gibson admitted having been in the room with the minister. She said that Mrs. Lee called her as she was passing on the street and that she found Rev. Rose after she had gone to the defense reporter. The girl said, the minister disrobed first, went into a room and she followed him. Tears dimmed her eyes. Her voice trembled with emotion as she quietly told her story. "I expect my husband, that it is best to tell the truth." Mrs. Gibson set at rest the much whispered rumor that Rev. Rose was the father of her year-and-one-half-old child. She named another minister as her little girl's father. Mrs. Gibson was married last September. Our pastor, a man as he stood behind the bars in the cell room of the police station and declared that "it was all a frame-up." He severely denounced Mrs. Baskette and blamed her for trapping him. Our woman has been my enemy ever since I put her off the board," he said. "It's all a plot, a frame-up," he kept repeating, "and I can't understand it. Why. I had just drowned in to see Mrs. Lee on business. She phoned me to come over. I felt a little sick and went into the apartment more than 15 minutes in all," he declared. Wife Furnishes Bail The minister was later bailed out by his wife. Mrs. Ida Rose who scheduled their home at 3715 Elmwood Ave. for a 5500 bank. In the court of domestic relations, before Judge J. F. Gilbert, Rev. Rose and Mrs. Gilson were found guilty. Sentence will be passed Saturday. The center of factual disturbances which have occurred at Salem church from time to time. Some of the members want him removed because of his czar-like rule, they said, and because they believe the church is losing influence in arrangements under the pastor are also unsatisfactory, some of the members contend. He has the confidence of another portion of the membership, however, who believe him to be all that a minister should New Haven, Conn., April 30.

PENN TELLS SENATE HOW TO MAKE U. S. DRY Washington, D. C., April 30—Before the senate subcommittee on the judiciary in the "wee" and "dry" hearing, Dr. L. Garland Penn, Incumbent, Ohio, made a statement of members of our face as assistant United States district attorneys and prohibition enforcement officers as an aid toward stricter and more general enforcement of the Volstead act and the 15th amendment. Said he, "Negro officers are the most affidavitified with white bootleggers, and apprehension of both by Negro officers is more likely than otherwise." The fine work of Former Assistant United States District Attorney John B. Anderson, apprehended to by Dr. Penn in the apprehension and conviction of the many Cincinnati police who were sent to the Atlanta federal prison. The fact was also stressed that our people are interested in the enforcement of all the amendments to the 15th amendment because of a minority insistence upon violation and inability to enforce the same, would be the same argument for the repeal of the 15th. A daily paper of North Carolina stated that the 15th amendment is the most interesting witnesses appearing before the senate committee. FOUR DIE AS FIRE SWEEPS BIG TENEMENT The Dead MRS.

DARROW RIPS INTO STORIES OF POLICEMEN Shows Discrepancies in Testimony By NETTIE GEORGE SPEEDY Detroit, Mich., April 29. The testimony of the state's two star witnesses did not concur with the opening statement of Prosecuting Attorney Robert M. Toms in the Henry Sweet murder case, who is being tried for the death of Leon Briener before Judge Frank Murphy of the recorder's court. Beliger died of bullet wounds he received while a member of a mob which had surrounded the home of Henry's brother, Dr. Ossian H. Sweet, last Sept. 9 in an effort to drive him from a white neighborhood. Mr. Toms had declared that one would show that there was no suspect home of poe he planned the home as a wertable nest for gunmen, and the neighborhood a place of peace and harmony. At noon Monday, one of the state's "aces" ascended the stand. He described himself as Norton Schuknecht, inspector of police in the district where the Sweets' home is located. His living was fancy as long as he was guided by Toms, but his plane was slowly brought to earth by Clarence Darrow, chief counsel for the defense. Mr. Darrow made him admit that he knew of a meeting of the Waterworks Park Improvement association, which society was formed for the purpose of keeping Dr. Sweets out of the neighborhood, two weeks before he moved into the neighborhood, that he had sent two plainclothes men to the meeting to see what was said and done, that he has a brother-in-law who owns a home near the Sweet (Continued on Page 2) HOLD IN ROMANCE —P.

Mrs. Barrett, who is of mixed parentage, has been declared one of the prettiest girls in this district and the better class of both races have congratulated young Barrett upon his choice. Despite Klan threats, the couple plan to make their home on the Barrett farm when they return from their honeymoon in the mountains. MRS. GARVEY DENIES RUMOR OF DIVORCE New York, April 30.—Confusion in the names of Marcus Garvey's first wife and second wife has served on several occasions to middle opinion as to their present relations with the president-general of Africa. The Defender takes occasion to oppose to what has been stated on a recent occasion, that Mrs. Amy Jacques Garvey has a divorce suit pending against Marcus Garvey. It is not true that Mrs. Amy Jacques has now or has ever had a divorce suit pending against Marcus Garvey. On the authority of Kohn and others, that Marcus Garvey, the Defender is able to state that she does not intend and never did intend to begin such a suit. YOUTH DEFIES KLAN TO WED PRETTY GIRL Peekskill, N. Y., April 30.—The tattered and torn doctrine of "race purity," which has been reduced almost to shreds by repeated instances in this section of marriages between dark girls and well-to-do white men, was ripped a little more last week. Miss Hazel Williams, 17, the beautiful mulatto daughter of a well-known local family, became the bride last Thursday night of Sidney Barrett, 28 farmers in the entire countryside. Ku Klux Klan sentiment, fostered among the more ignorant of the local farmers, shared into open resentment when Barrett proudly announced his wedding, and took his pretty bride opened her. Threats were passed by some of the hoodlums of the community, but the better element warmly congratulated the prosperous young farmer upon his choice. Mr. and Mrs. Barrett withdrew to the inn in country for their honeymoon, but their friends are preparing a cordial welcome when they return to take their place in Peekskill social circles. Because of his prosperous business standing, Mr. Barrett is highly regarded by the farmers. Miss Williams was known throughout this section for her beauty and charm. Their romance started on the farm near Mahopac, Putnam county, New York, and Mise Williams. She chanced to visit the farm to see her uncle, and young Barrett was dazzled with her comeliness. He began a whirlwind courtship, and she tried to night they stalked by judge Martin J. Steyker of Adams' Corners. Idlers of the community, organized as Klansmen, had threatened Barrett and Mise Williams, but the young white farmer laughed in their faces. CAREER ENDS HON. GEO. W. MURRAY Twice elected to the United States house of representatives, George Washington Murray was among the last of that band of reconstruction politicians who proved to a doubting world that the genius of the Race could produce state-manipulation on a par with the nation's only it was given a fair chance. His death severed another of the too few links connecting this generation with those stirring years of the closing decades of the last century. DEATH TAKES FORMER REP. G.W.MURRAY With impressive rites the body of George Washington Murray, 73, 4752 Evans Ave., Congressman from South Carolina in the late reconstruction period, who died at Wilson hospital Wednesday, April 21, was laid to rest Monday afternoon in Lincoln cemetery amid a profusion of flowers. Hundreds high in political, church and public circles gathered at Pilgrim Baptist church, 33rd St. and Indiana Ave., and paid their last respects to the great leader. Rev. Dr. D. E. Butler, pastor of Allen Temple A. M. E. church, delivered the sermon. The brief services consisted of remarks and eulogies from Emmett Bergen, barrione, and the Pilgrim choir rendered musical selections. Acting as master of ceremonies, Attorney Nathan S. Taylor introduced the following speeches: Dr. E. H. Cox, pastor of Pilgrim Baptist church; Rev. W. D. Cook, pastor of the Metropolitan Community Center church; Rev. J. C. Austin, pastor of Pilgrim Baptist church; Major John R. Lynch, Judge William C. Hueston of Gary Ind., R. W. W. Hueston of E. W. W. Hueston and Rev. E. T. Martin, pastor of Bethesda Baptist church. Took Ill in January Mr. Murray was first taken ill in January, but was never forced to his bed. Several weeks ago his physicians suggested an operation. He was removed to the hospital and on Friday morning Dr. L. W. Bremerman performed the operation. Saturday he showed up for work, but never wore Sunday and every day thereafter. All efforts to save him were futile. Born in Sumter county, South Carolina, Sept. 27, 1853, Mr. Murray received his education in the public schools and South Carolina State college. He taught school in 1574 and later became interested in politics. For 21 years he fought for the cause.

McIntosh, a Pullman porter of 32 W. 127th St., has started two suits in the supreme court through his attorney, Benedict A. Leerbugher, one against his wife, Mrs. Leoneil McIntosh, 2137 Madison Ave., for absolute divorce and the other against John E.

Moore has owned and operated the box factory for several years at 583 Greenwich St. He is a bachelor and a lawyer. Mr. McIntosh claims that for several months he had engaged the services of the Boulin National Detective Agency to make an investigation which culminated in a raid on the office of Friday, April 16, after the detectives, Mr. McIntosh and several witnesses had kept an all-night watch over the factory where he claims his wife and Moore had remained in the building for the second floor. Mr. McIntosh blamed all his domestic trouble, which extends over several years, to Moore and further alleged that on April 14 and on numerous other occasions he was a frequent visitor to Moore's place.

King has received the following letter from Neval H. Thomas of the public school department commending his attack upon the conduct of the United States in Haiti. "You assure you that the Colored people of the country heartily applaud your statesmanship in defending the name of our common country and the independence of the republic of Haiti. "It is true that there has been some lawlessness there, but we have the courage to defend the United States, and even worse. We are the only country in the world cursed by mob law and lynching, and according to carefully collected statistics, we have far more homelands than any other civilized land. We are hardly in a position to prosecute any crime against the island of Haiti in a mission of mercy and guardianship of peace. "It is nothing save the greed of the great financial interests of our own country, seeking the rich fields of the Caribbean, that carried our flushes there during the World War as a war to end war, and one to defend the weak against the strong. The shades of 4,000 peaceful natives who had done us no wrong, but who were murdered by our invading forces, and the martyrs now languishing in prison, have now been ordered to criticize the ruthless injustice of the occupation, will not call us harboring of order and peace." The Race in the United States has a peculiar pride in the traditions of liberty, which that nation has quest of the helpless little government by the little people to match PART 1-PAGE 2 NAB PASTOR WHO SWINGS A BLACKJACK --- Talking to Waitress Brings Him to Grief New York, April 30—Roy Benjamin J. Wicks, pastor of Mount Ripon Baptist church, 43 W. 133th St, was locked up at the W. 123d St police station last week for carrying a blackjack. Police say he had be "our using it."

On March 4, 1893, he was elected as a Republican to the 53d congress to March 3, 1895. He successfully contested the seat of John W. Watt in the 54th congress and served from June, 1893, to March 3, 1897. Saves Franchise Mr. Murray's first accomplishment for the Race came after his election, when he purchased 10,000 acres of land, divided it into 25, 50 and 1000 acres tracts and sold it to members of his Race in order that they might have the power to vote. This had to be done as South Carolina prohibited all persons who could not read or write and who were not land owners from voting. A misunderstanding between him and his political fogs caused him to leave some make his home in Illinois. He came to Chicago in 1905 and has been active as a platform lecturer ever since. He was elected for a number of years as delegate to the national Republican convention. The ex-congressman was well known in political circles here and was on the verge of receiving an appointment from Senator Charles Depeen. He has traveled extensively and had a wide experience as an author. He wrote several looks, the most famous of which is "Light in Dark Plages".

Charleslevix and Garland Aves, where the Sweet home is situated; that he had to double his number of patrolmen so they would be able to handle the situation and keep people moving. He reluctantly admitted that at least 150 or 200 people had gathered in the dusk of a block near the Sweet home. State Loses Day Paul Shellenberger, his lieutenant of police, followed him on the stand. With a confident air, he practically led him by his supervised officer pertaining to the crowds of people and number of automobiles. Thomas Chawke, assisting Darrow if the defense, took over the day's session it was frankly conceded that it had been a Thomas Chawke day. Chawke made batted and hattered, and wished for the "ace" was nothing but a bit of humanity caught in the mousse of Tom Chawke's cleverness. He was as a shap at sea flooringing without a rudder. Chawke said that practically every officer assigned to his district lived in the Sweet neighborhood. He made him admit that when he saw him after him coming from the windows of the Sweet home and heard volleys of shots he ran away from the direction or the shooting to call the police reserves, but he saw the Sweet house, alone and with his gun in his pocket. A fine picture he drew of leaving his commanding officer to go unaccompanied into a den by his gunmen as Tom described them. The regular panel and two special panels of veniremme were called before a jury was selected to try the case. Only the names of two taliemme remained when both counsels for the state and the defense announced. The jury were satisfied with the jury. It required exactly one week to obtain the exact jury. The Jury The jurors are: Charles Thorne, stewardship steward, 1121 Nardin Ave. William Sawch, lecomotive engineer, 3340 Carter Ave. Joseph Birmel, pharmacist, 1536 Eppy Park. John M. Allen, machinist, 6456 Concote James S. Spencer, electrician, 3125 Eastlawn Ave. Philips, Phillips, electroplater, 4452 Robbins Ave. for the C. F.

Sutton, watchman at the Sacred Heart seminary, 2701 Thomas Ave. seemed probable for a while that the defense counsel would move for a mistrial and a change of venue as Attorney Darrow, when questioning a prospective juror, turned to the highest pitch which has yet been heard at the trial and declared it "appeared as if an arrangement between certain jurors had trussed into an objection to inject prejudice into the case." This episode occurred while Phillip J. Savage, 600 Virginia Park Ave. was being questioned, Savage said. The jury mission was made after two prospective jurors, who had been questioned immediately before his appearance in the box, had declared themselves in favor. Savage was asked by Darrow if he had formed any opinion in the case. He replied in the affirmative. "Did you bring your opinion here with you?" asked Mr. Darrow. "I answered your question." "Where did you get your opinion?" asked Darrow. "From my knowledge of the case," "Where did you get your knowledge of the case?" "Who gave you the case?" "Who gave you the case?" "I got it from my knowledge and the newspapers, and I am convinced that these people had no justification for firing." "You know that no such thing was ever published by any newspaper in the city of Detroit. You should be held in contempt of court for making any such statement," thundered Detroit Mayor William F. Donner, an electrical engineer residing at 9961 Broad St. had preceded Mr. Savage in the box. When asked if he had formed an opinion in the case, he quickly replied, "Because he knew the Sweets had police protection and were not justified in firing." "Do you know the number of Colored homes that Detroit has menued by police Detroit, while under police protection?" asked Darrow. At this point an objection was raised by Assistant Prosecutor Moll, who declared that the question was an issue. "Why, this question is very ma- THE CHICAGO DEFENDER W PRESS installed. Richard L.

The objection was overruled by Judge Murphy, and with his characteristic fairness, he stated, "I do not want counsel to be limited in any way, and I want to be with questioning a juryman regarding prejudice. It is a question that must be gone into thoroughly on both sides." Judge Murphy's ruling brought an interest in the fight. For Darrow was able to prove that Donner had witnessed the ejection of Dr. Turner from his home while it was supposed to be under police protection. Do you know of the incident of Dr. Turner and that his home was almost completely deprived? Donner was asked. "Do you know anything about that case?" "And the police were there, and you saw them yourself?" questioned Dearborn. "Yes, sir." "And the home of Dr. Turner was destroyed white still under that notice and you will be exposed, will excuse you," declared Darrow. Juryman Expresses Idea Mr. Darrow crossed swords with J. Bell Moran, Iroquois Ave., when he was being questioned. He declared that he had been questioned. He the Sweets had not been looking for trouble that night why did they carry arms into the house. He added that he had been questioned. There there would not have been a murder there that night. "Yes, and if the occupants had been murdered they have been any murder they've not resumed." Moran, a contractor and builder, added that he built his houses exclusively for whites, and if a Negro had been murdered he would haveency to depreciate its value. He admitted that his ancestors were southern slave holders and this fact must prejudice him against the defendant. Ivan Sandler, a machinist, 640 Garland Ave., declared that he had read of the previous trial and had been questioned. He wrong had been done it should be punished. In this case a man had been killed and it was his opinion that some one in Dr. Sweet's home Joseph H. Adams, a furniture salesman, 2828 Taylor Ave., will always remember Clairemont, an uncomfortable half hour while being questioned as a prospective juror. He declared that he had leased an apartment building to a white man and the lessee sub-leased "what if" questions to be made, answered Adams. "Well, after the place was repaired did you rent it to Colored people again?" asked Darrow. "Did not." "Why?" Adams face slowly reddened, but Darrow stood stole before him, his attitude demanding an answer. Adams presented a phishing apprehension to discover whether prospective jurymen had any racial or religious prejudice. He searched into the life history of each of the veniromen. He asked the birthplace of an attorney, connections with any secret organization. When one of his associate counsel, Mr. Chawke, was questioning a man, he tabled, but every once in a while he would approach the side of Chawke and offer him a suggestion. The defense will be based upon self-confidence. Judge Murphy warned the jury that they must not be influenced by opinions or prejudices that had been laid out. The "innocence or guilt of the defendant is to be determined solely upon the restraint and the law of the defendant," a thing that has been said detrimental to the accused," cautioned the court.

THEATER Find Doorman Stealing Tickets New York, April 5th—Assistant District Attorney Kewald, a son-in-law of the owner and manager of the Franklin theater, last week charged Washington Heights court, before Magistrate Simpson, with being one of the traders of a gang which has systematically stolen $3,500 from the Lafayette theater, where Scott was employed as docuresser. Scott was asked to be a friend and pal of Scott, who faces a similar charge, is now in prison awaiting sentence on two other charges, according to Mr. Ewald. Maine was recently arrested on charges of carrying a loaded revolver. He is said to have threatened to shout his wife four days before. The assistant district attorney charges that this same Maine is the master mind of the gang operating around the Lafayette which is a rival house to the Franklin. According to the story told to Magistrate Simpson by Frank Schiffman, general manager of the house, Scott took in all the tickets bought of the theater. Scott was supposed to tear each ticket in two and deposit the stub in the box maintained for that purpose, but instead of doing this Schiffman charges Scott the whole ticket and put it into the box. When he saw where his seat was located and sent into the theater without a stub. When Scott had from fifty to sixty tickets Maine and three other men used to call for them and resell them in all parts of Harlem at reduced prices. When Detective Coogan of the W. [35th St. station] searched Maine after arresting him on a charge of striking his wife, he found a score of Lafayette theater tickets in his pocket and after questioning, Maine admitted to Coogan that he had not met them at the box office, it is alleged.

Although selected by Brown as one of his 10 picked men for the raid into Virginia at Harper Ferry, Parsons could not be with him and thus probably escaped the fate that befell that little party.

D-2 Topkiss, Kansas THE CHICAGO DEFENDER TROOPS MAKE DISPLAY AS TRIAL OPENS Kentucky Justice (?) Takes Its Course BULLETIN After a half-hour deliberation Wednesday the jury returned a verdict of guilty against Bunyan Fleming and condemned him to die. The date of execution is yet to be determined, and the trial are said to have taken less than two hours. Columbus Hollis and Nathan Bard, being tried separately, will know their fates within the next few hours, it is believed. Madisonville, Ky., April 30.—Kentucky's elaborate system of bringing persons accused of crimes. In this state to trial is being given another display this week as three men are accused of attacking a woman on a charge of attacking a woman in this city. The men, Columbus Hollis, Nathan Bard and Bunyan Fleming, accused of criminal assault upon Nell Brethaupt, a white woman, were arrested from the Frankfort prison under guard of the state militia. Recalls Another Case The details were carried out along the same lines as the recent case in Lexington, Ky., where Ed Harris, who admitted shooting a man and his two children to death, was tried for the murder of a woman hanged, Troops, some of the same that patrolled the streets in Lexington, are on guard here and the city is practically under martial law. The three men were arrested two weeks ago, and the women of them was found in a purse belonging to a white woman. Through this man information was gleaned by the police which led to the arrest of the women, the stories out by the police, the men, the contested that they attacked the Brettbent woman and robbed her escort; Alain Sturm, near the grounds of the Country club on the night of April 11, 2005, were also presiding the trial. Guards Conspicuous Although guards are on hand to give the proceedings the appearance of orderliness and make it appear that the accused men will receive a fair trial, in view of past performances of Kentucky courts where members of our Race are interested in the accused men and have come of the trial will be. The daily newspapers of this violence have seen to it that ophitions of the people in this district have been formed as to the guilt of the accused men and have made it impossible to find a Juryman who has not already convicted the men in his mind. This happened in the man being sentenced to die within a half hour from the beginning to the end of the trial. Kentucky citizens also recall the recent case of Charles Merchant, who brutally assaulted two little girls of our Race and who, because of the fact that he is white was speedily acquitted, he was jailed. It has become a well established fact that Kentucky's justice is intended to apply two ways. MACK PARKER DIES Wayner, Ga., April 25—Mark C.

The toastmaster, Dr. John F. Bresnahan, medical director of St. Mark's hospital, he had been a president of six weeks in Africa last year as medical adviser for a horse oil company. He told the difficult of life there. His son was a son of the first-in-injured Africans as well as Portuguese and he spoke in admiration of the work of O'Carrman in Africa. The first of the first for the return trip. Dr. Bresnahan said, he found that he had been assigned to a cabin with a preacher. He immediately returned to the home of his children, enhanced only as to find himself sharing quarters with Jewish rabbis. But during the days of that trip away from Africa he made the question of how to go to the missionary's pastor in E. Nelson, the hobbies left. Together they talked of Africa—of its needs and of the young missionary's plans for further services for his year of well-earned through both were interested in the people of the Libeir country of Angola. The physician had seen their needs; the personal necessary was planning to serve in that region.

There are many men who marry in distribution, even in the older form (the men) can have easy, unknowing, a suming complete responsibility of a home. A woman who musters a trade is often a man who has a long life and depends on the need to be a love of freedom and good living. A holland woman appreciates him a life that is very good. He thinks he will be efforts to keep it in order that the responsibilities of living are carried on. The man who has a good life is that the average man's salary will only supply the essential things, and to have luxuries there must be an extra inflows. He would like to be a slacker—no real man would. If he shows a red union he will be a good person. If the men are a good man, she is making a slave of herself for nothing.

There is within every human being a conscience, and it matters not how long it (conscience) is disregarded, there is no higher question in the human body, as to when it is hidden and the wrong doings of the past arise to haunt you. It is a rather strange, but true, fact that there are many people of both sex who crave the love and assistance of some one who is married and with a male every sacrifice and take every known chance in order to be with that some one. How do these affairs usually terminate? Very lady. It's the old story of the doing of the manager. When a man or woman is married and living with their respective mates, it is criminal for some other to be waiting for him or her to be single. If there is cause for divorce, it is not a case of disliked man, but a case of outside woman who does the damage. How can a good, clean, honest man or woman be an "outsider"? In the end, who suffers? Most. Give them up until he is free. You have been married woman and should know the sorrows and tears that a wife is made to shed.

It does not impound to mention Mr. Kelly at this point, but will further serve to inspire the beast to the music world. ```markdown ``` H. All, Kelly was born in Mo- renuel, Mich., Dec 27, 1871, and at the age of 2 years was moved to Adrian's farm at Adrian, Michi- nuel. his grandfather's Dave Peyton farm at Adrian, Michigan. In the early '70s and '80s educational opportunities for the race man were not as ample as now, and then he had to do his "hit" and "hand" work. He learned the "old homeschool." A farmer boy up to the age of 17, dividing his time between working on the farm and drudging two and a half miles when he could be spared at home; entering the employment of Professor Curtis, who was at that time principal of Adrian high school, who took his children to other father instructions (evenings) for two years as part pay for services rendered as chore boy, etc. It was at the age of 19 that the wanderlust began to assert itself, and he awoke one rainy April morning did he get there? Use your own good judgment. Records go to show that in 1890 our own Mr. Jack Johnson drifted from his music studio to Minstrels' $1,000 challenge band as bandmaster and decided to camp. Well, those were the days of the Minstrels' little later Jack conceived and built the Detroit City band, a musical vehicle never to be forgotten. In 1894 our friend was listed and answered the roll call as snare drummer and hold that position for three long years. Edward Beeler (who made good at the job) and Joining a craw of watters bound for Oakland hotel, St. Louis, he was a son for this; regular eating habits, shortage of funds, and being a health care provider for nourishment to life, not music, especially drum music. After that season he journeyed to Toledo, Ohio, and as it was always a mouth organ to amuse himself with (heing musically inclined), some of his very good friends (2) urged upon him the necessity of giving his lung organ to heroes on herogram, as it was.

Joe Windom Writes Joe Windom, the crack drummer with the "7-11" show last season, writes that the show is about to close for the season and wants to locate his band in his line and would be an asset to any orchestral organization.

There will be 14 players in the presentation modern musical movies. It is rumored that Alice Callaway, the drummer, was injured in an auto accident, presenting modern musical writing we have been unable to get the facts, but will give them to our readers in the next issue. Alice is contracting member of the orchestra at the Indiana theater, Chicago. The Musicians' Local band turned up at Lottie Taylor held this week in Chicago. Eigar's orchestra is still the talk of the gold coast. The boys have made them like it. Starting in against the band in the theater and giving the chorus some funny programs. In the line-up are well-qualified players possessed of versatility. Cerveness and his orchestra are a riot at the Sunset café. The boys have put new life in the place, Louis Armstrong doubles cornet in the orchestra from the Vendone theater. The orchestra of the Indiana theater will work only two nights a week for the summer months only. The close album that polls well, April 25.

ABBIE MITCHELL WEDDED New York—From reliable sources the "Scribe" learns that Abie Mitchell, who was married last Wednesday to Leslie Tompkins, an art student. There are two features of the rebellious Tompkins—a wagging tongue and a wagging Tompkins is declared by many of his friends as being not over 21 years of age, and is not a member of the group but 19. His friends, however, are men and women of mature years. Miss Mitchell, however, is declared to be 21 years old. The favorite comedienne of two continents was divorced from Mrs. Cook, the noted composer, several years before. Merce Cook, now in Parks on an Amherst college graduate scholarship, and Mrs. Louis Doughles of the early Williams and Walker shows and the "Red Moon" of Cole and Johnson, Mrs. Mitchell, since her husband has been starring in songs abroad has been starring in songs at a famous Broadway night club. The Wallick shows played to a fine business of April 12 at Pecos, Texas. He gets out of Texas. Catherine Wiley is still on the sisk list, leaving only three ladies on the first part, all hitching strong wires with their song stage manager. George Goorz is putting on some fine shows this season. Loviel Langford shows the first part. Podal and Walsh raise them out of their years with their not Charleston speciality. Mall will bring a long week of April 26 at Carlstadt. Where to Buy OKeh Race Records James H. Smith Joe Windom Writes Goes to California Smiling Billy Notes WALLICK SHOWS OBSERVATIONS One night stands and three a day have somewhat shortened our scope of observation this week. We booked a week of one night in order to break the jump from Houston to New Orleans. We also wish to show how the people en route would receive a two and a half hour show, given by 11 performers. The result was entirely satisfactory. In Galveston many person in person show given by the small company better than the ones given by 32 and 8. T. Whitney P quality talent one has to draw upon. Mr. and Mrs. Lewis received us very kindly in Lafayette, La., and would have given us a much larger audience in which to advertise the show. At Baton Rouge we found in the Temple theater one of the prettiest little phyllouse of the entire circuit. It is a beautiful place. The temple is a credit to the fraternity and a grand testimonial to the progressiveness, energy and persistence of Grand Master B. V. Burton. This is the last word in attractiveness. The theater is managed by A. O. Lyons, Cornell Bell and I. D. Nance, three of the city's most prestigious museums. The first performance was crowded to capacity, and only the loopertune advent of a furious thunder storm prevented a second performance. The city and gave us an opportunity to observe the wonderful improvement Baton Rouge has made since our last visit. It boasts of being a true city, and we can be true, for even the streets and sidewalks in the Face sections are paved. This "dear old Southland" is truly a land of contradictions, child inconsistencies, outworn traditions, and odd as well as royal friendships. A race integrity committee would have a merry time separating the races in Louisiana. It just couldn't be done, one can imagine, by the color of the skin or the texture of the hair. During our short trip through Louisiana we had the impression that we were playing to mixed audiences, two-thirds of the crowd was white for us to differentiate from our positions on the stage. One can come or arrive at but one conclusion, that every person is white in this section but an American-born white in the rest, and the white the Race person may be, that person is black nevertheless. Throughout Louisiana in nearly every city we were told and could observe the truth of the race, and they played by the more live side by side and sometimes share the same building. Residential segregation is not so much a matter of prejudice as of covetiveness. When Travis Rose was a site site site who covet the site use even means to enable them to gain possession of the property coveted. When they fall it is nearly always because some friend of the Race people and influence them to their rescue. En route from Lafayette to Baton Rouge we ran into a flooded district. For nearly 15 miles the tracks were under water and as far as one could see the country was flooded. We pulled up at a little town where all the houses are built upon stilts, or boats arranged in pontoon fashion. Walks, stairs, and a lead from house to house. If there were any yards they were under water. I have often been told that a hog cannot swim without cutting its hooves. Every person in the company saw a hog swim as though it really enjoyed the exercise and when it climbed out of the water on an embankment there was no need for an ambulance to carry the hog. French or what passes for French. I confess it is all Greek to me, but since they call it French I am too polite to contradict them. I am not sure just as we if they spoke Hindustani. Large and jolly audiences greeted us at every performance at the Lyric. Our old Island, Professor Rubbishou, greatly impressed us. We greatly in putting the show over. We missed Gilly back stage, but everything was expertly handled by Smith. We were given the charge of the stage. Mr. Bourdeaux has hired a hey of beauties who act in the capacity of ushers that I would like to steal for my beauty choreo. We have a house calls for a serious and artistic application of grease paints at the back of the house. The police benefit, for whites only, masked the house for the audience. We thus artistically received. A midnight frolic, for whites only, will pack nearly any Race theater in the South. We play at the white theater, the whites, especially the women, are conspicuous for their absence. "Consistency, thou art a Jewel." And this same consistency applies to the Race monege. Loew just recently, opened a new theater at New Orleans, and with an eye to business, made provisions for it: a stage, a dressing room and put plush on the seat; it must be red plush, for the Jim Crows are stepping upon each other for a chance to sit on those plush seats. And the theater owners the way to Jim Crow heaven. to the minute and he is still the favorite "Strutting Sam." Chirance fame was radiant and engaged in fashion, and he enjoys a style that is diametrically different from yours truly and makes him a valuable asset to the comedy. He is also a talented outside of a home for incurables. Charles Hawkins sets a pace for all character artists. He is an artist with a unique voice. Boyard Whitney makes the young ladies sigh and look for his name on the program. His sweet tenor voice is a delight. He is looking. Aside from her ability as a singer, Mabel Ridley proves her claim to versatility by doing a bit of her foreplay is incomparable. Franklin Watts wins with her sweet contrataction voice. Arlyne Brooks and Nona Brooks are placed and they are placed so many different places that it is difficult to keep track of their places. Eloise Blooshe and Baby Knight are sprightly members of our beauty chorus. Cuny Conner has developed into a first-class musical director, He plays at the Pike theater, Mobile, Ala.

COLUMBIA PHONOGRAPH COMPANY 1619 Broadway, New York 24 PART 1-PAGE 8 "NOW" Indianapolis, Ind.—The show world since the day I first entered into the show. has almost since the day I fir gme. In using the personal promenu "it" is for you than to than to give my story a heading. While it is true I have ve had much experience in acer. I shall not take up all the space allowed me in writing about myself. When I began my work surely was the outstanding am us ment Game. In using the personal pro- nouncement "it's for no other purpose than to give my story a heading. While it is true I have had much improvement in the active show life. I shall not take up all the space allowed me in writing about myself. When I began my show I was the outstanding amusement offered to the theatergoing public "audeville had not put in its appearance when I was given the show was then given and the slip on the剧院街. "Variety Theater," also another form of amusement almost the same as nowadays; vaudeville was known as "museum." Cole and Middleton ran a big one in theatre. One may find here and there an artist who once did a variety turn there. Opera and comic opera were the musical shows of that day, musical comedy was just beginning its formation, comedy, farce and extravaganza needed the big audience for the people. Burlesque shows were the only "nudy" shows that one could see, but women's skirts were worn with their thrills and long kissing womens clothing. Only lady tresses were bobbed with a yellow ticket. There were two classes of dramas, the one that preached a sermon and the other that presented a light composition of dramatic nature that would excite laughter, then a situation to bring tears. Motion pictures had not throttled the public womens life and long kissing scenes. Kissing in those days was a private matter. The college boys' offering then was his glee club. There was no prohibition then, and most every saloon had its barroom quartet, and many a gala was swallowed from midsummer night's dream by four voices howling "Good Night, Ladies." With all of these things ever before the public, the amusement loving minstrels out of the many minstrels that played before the public in those days, the season of 1925 found but three recognized minstrels on the roads—two whites and one of the Irish. But out of the many recognized minstrels will be seen on the road during the season of 1926-1927. There are many reasons for it. One is a minstrel is the quickest of the local benefit entertainment given by amateurs, and the giving of these kind of shows has a tendency to lesson the box office receipts of a traveling show giving an entertainment of the same kind as the minstrels. It is also true that a minstrel show cannot offer all the thrills and actions that other classes of shows can give. --- A real minstrel, as a rule, is made up with all men and men do not attract the fancy of the public nowadays. Today we find most girl minstrels in the city or at least show throughout the show their naked limbs, with a little twist added to the action of every dance number they do. The voluptuous sensuousness of woman's form seems to take all classes by storm. How many people would pay two dollars and fifty cents admission to see 30 or more minstrels in the city? The minstrel of today to play a profitable season must lose all but a wee bit of the yesterday minstrel and add plenty scenic and novelty effects along with popular music, songs and dances. Even the old street parade must undergo a change, as local lodges and cabbies show how minstrels can attract more attention in their outdoor show than most minstrels can afford to buy. The brass band will no longer attract unless they play as much or more popular selections than people hear nightly over their radios. Nowadays in most every home you will find jazz in jazz music among the number of its family or theater. In Indianapolis lives the oldest and last of the living members of the old and original Georgia Minstrels, S. W. Wilson, who was a tenor sinner with Calandar's Georgia Minstrels. When Billy Kerspanda, Joseph Jones, John F. Kerspanda, were the comedy lights of minstrelsy, S. W. Wilson was also a member of Sam T. Jack's Creole company. He can tell many interesting tales of minstrelsy when Calandar was the king of minstrel owners. The opening of the Indiana theater in Indianapolis to vaudeville makes him a star. The Washington always has a big show on and with the Indiana giving more employment to artists. Indianapolis is greeted with many new faces each week. E. S. Stone, the owner of the Washington, and James Hill can do much in making Indiana a popular center for actors. Mr. Hill engaged me to manage his booking affairs for a few weeks and while here will do all I can to help with the business and company routes. There is no fighting between these two owners, they are both Race men, they are just trying to make business from which every one will profit. The institution is the old Crown garden, which I was once owner and manager of in days gone by, and the Indiana is a new theater with a more modern touch. Dr. C Miller, on his way to Chicago, the Indiana theater said, 'belie in the Wild' company at the Washington I had a chance to say hello to Miss Alice Gorges and Galy DeGaston. The Sunnyland Four with Frank Brown, Willy Burns, Chas. Burton and J. Bonnie Clark and Herman Nigges, playing the Indiana, were entertained by Henry Lee, proprietor of the popular Hollywood cabaret. Steve Miller is house manager of the Indiana and wishes all friends to know it. Business is important if you address it booking manager of the Indiana theater, 412 Indiana Ave, Indianaapolis, Ind. NOW. CLARENCE REDD New York. — Clarence Redd, the giant actor who scored such a decisive personal success by his himself, has been puzzled at the Bitmore theater, in the city's Redd, who did such fine character work in "Aphrodite," Mr. Redd was also in "The Miracle," in which he played the stellar role of the Mourish king. Redd stands about 5 feet 3 inches tall, and he has a fine specimen of manhood. Good, clean-cut living and adherence to his high ideals have made him one of the most popular Race actors on the stage today. He is one of the few of race actors that manages to keep employed at all times. 1987 "Science and Religion" Science has helped to widen our all other religions, ancient or modern, and to increase our creative force. It from God Himself. The fact that all other religions, ancient or modern. There is no other source than from God himself. The fact that such a revelation has made such a profound difference to mankind, creating a new type of character, filling the soul with new fears, new hopes and new aspirations, is indicative of its divine source. No truth has ever been gripped the heart of mankind or had such an effect upon human life and destiny. The revelation of God came to its fullness and finality in Jesus Christ, who is God manifested in the flesh. In Christ we see a God of supreme holiness and love; the平安的幸福, so far as he is the world. He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in Him shall not perish, but have everlasting life; the God whom we have learned to call "Our Father," not merely in the universal sense but the deep individual sense, who cares for each life and is interested in all the concerns of the individual soul. It is faith in the infinite, loving, holy, redeeming God that must lie at the very foundation of our beliefs. If God's truth is known Him and experience His power and presence in the human heart. Rev. L. T. Harvey, you will no doubt find that my article of last week and this article are a direct answer to your letter to me, which asked if I knew anything all at about religion. I believe I have come to understand that I know something about it; also, my husband and I avail ourselves of every opportunity of going to church. However, I realize that of itself doesn't mean much; I am glad you wrote me and I am also very much pleased to hear that you wish to Wish you would write again; also all the other folks that have written me. I thank you. "Make Me APallet On Your Floor" "Bring Your Greenbacks" COLUMBIA NEW PROCESS RECORD NO. 14125 by Ethel Waters America's Foremost Ebony Comedienne When you hear Ethel Waters sing, you know you're being sung to, and on her Columbia New Process Records, it just seems like it was Ethel herself. There never has been a record made quite so blue, so "different," as "Make Me a Pallet On The Floor," and you'll know the minute you hear it, why everybody's going to talk about it. You'll like "Bring Your Greenbacks," too, another sure hit. strange long vines between earth and sky and has given us nobler conceptions of things great in nature. It has a struck body dows at raw materialism. Matter is no longer a atom, we are told that each atom is a miniature solar system as the so-called heavens above us, the heavens, 'Sci- Vivienne ence” cannot give us a personal God. It tells us nothing of the holiness and love of God, but speaks to us of the vital forces which cannot but lead earnest, seekers after truth to a belief in God, however little it may be. It is all folly to force that science be deceived by God. God is veiled’ religion; it was through the revelation of God Himself to man that we have come to know a perennial, righteousness, holiness and love; an omnipresent, omniscient God, who inhabits eternity, whose name is holy. I dwell in the high places of the earth, of a constrie and humble spirit. One might ask where did the prophets get their ideas of God? Certainly not from the heathen religion surrounding them, full as the way we see them, teachings, immorality and idolatry. These ideas were so different from VOCALION RAGE RECORDS The Brunswick - Balke - Collender company, nationally known manufacturers of Brunswick and Vocation phonographs and records, are now producing records to be marketed under brand name of Vocation Records. After making a very close study of the Race record field, the officials of the company saw a great need for better and cleaner records; they wanted to avoid the unwieldy a brand of records that would give them better music, whether it be instrumental, vocal or spiritual, recorded in a clean way by the best Race artists procurable. "Better and Cleaner Race Records," they have produced a series of records that should become immediately popular with our people. The records are electrically recorded and processed by the artist, is accurately reproduced. No expense has been spared in procuring the best talent among Race artists. Already such celebrities as James Oliver and his Dixie synopicons, Russell's Hot Six, Cotton Belt quartet, Ada Brown, Sirol Scruggs, Virginia Liston, Edmonton Henderson, the Umhrlan Glee club and others have been added to the Vocalon staff, and you can hear singing and singing their latest hits now. Elsewhere in this paper you will find a complete list of the new series of Vocalon Race records. Read it carefully and then step into your local shop and ask the dealer to play these new hits for you. You will like them immediately. BY MAUDE ROBERTS GEORGE The recital of Roberta Dodd Crawford was attended by an audience of music lovers of discriminating taste and brought before the public another artist, who, by years of study and possessed with a large measure of natural talent, was the only artist which was commended from every angle. Mrs. Crawford reflected great credit upon her famous teacher, Mrs. Herman Deeves, who has been most interested herself in his pupils and interested herself in giving Mrs. Crawford unusual opportunities to be heard. Teachers of the character of Mime, of the musician and of our musicians and artists, as well as their appreciation for that interest. Mrs. Crawford rendered a program of 15 numbers given in German, French, Spanish and English, the latter group containing numbers by Race composers. Mrs. Crawford has a control in her upper register that is marvelous, and the pianissimo quality as exquisite. The German group contained numbers by Bach, Schubert, Schumann, Brahms and an "encore by Beitoven. The French numbers were from the operas "U. Africaine" and "Murielle," followed by the delihtful "Si mes Vers avient des allies." Mrs. Crawford is one of the few artists who sing Spanish, and having had the opportunity of studying with a Spanish opera singer while living on the Arizona border, she's rendered the selections, one from the opera "El anillo de Hierro," by Marquez, and the delightful songs, with beautiful diction and in excellent Spanish style. Her encore following this group was "Nach Sevilla." The final group opened with songs by his major, with a new song by Major J. "Darkirk" Thunder. This is a very attractive selection and was interpreted by the mendous applause and could have been repeated, so great was the enthusiasm, another of the sudden spontaneous joy of the audience. Wiki Know How I Love Thee. by Herman Davies, who is music critic for the Metropolitan opera company. This number was coach, composer, and for many years an opera star abroad and with the Metropolitan opera company. This number was dressed in the splendid manner in which Mrs. Crawford gave it was need of hot and lovingly loved by an encore. "Sandman is Calling You," which was given with charm and feeling and the singer was given curtain calls after this final encore. The daily paper crises spoke in high tension. The newspaper doubt be called upon on many occasions, for her excellent success would be a great attraction upon any BIGGER. Better Than Spanking Spanking does not cure children of bed-wetting.

VIE and ST WHITMAN SISTERS By LINWOOD BRADLEY BY LINWOOD BRADLEY Altoona, Pa—Since our last writing we are proud to say that the company has been enlarged to 30 people. It is getting bigger and better every day. We have with us now Rastus Alrship and Daybreak Nelson, two well known comedians, who have been giving the public just what they want in comedy. Also Miss Conee Jones, Pearl Yipp DeGrender, Zeke Duncan on the show. During our engagement in Detroit the week of March 29 Miss Alice Whitban was the proud winner of a winner loving cup awarded by the manager the Clair Alabama or being the best Charleston dancer of the evening. Miss Mada Jenkins and George Cashmere and their five-piece or special features of the Club Alabama. The company was also entertained by the manager of the Tip Toe Inn on Thursday night, April 1, and it will be some time before we will be able to forget this one particular night. Friday night we were invited to the Iola Hour, where we were having the time we our lives when some of our surprise he was found over in a corner with his head in his hands. What's the matter, Monte, in Love? Monday, April 5 we opened at the Whitman Sisters, Tenn. and the patrons of this theatrical us that they were glad to have the famous Whitman Sisters with them again by their attendance during our show. Miss Alice Whitman and Miss Horriott Callaway motored to Cleveland Sunday night after the Ramble and joined the company Monday afternoon in Morgantown, W. Va. We are our second in Morgantown to drive better business than the first time. The manager and patrons of the Elmore thater and members of the Whitman Sisters company donated $50 for the benefit of Eddie Lemons. which was sent to them by Mabel Whitman. If you were tuned in at 7 o'clock Tuesday evening, April 6, I am sure you heard Mattie Whitman, accompanied by the Whitman Sisters orchestra, broadcasting from station WJAS, Pittsburgh. Mattie Whitman sang "Whon My Man Shimmies" and "Papa De Da Da" and Earnest Michael Sparrnetts, was featured in "Bluecut Blues" and "St. Louis Blues" played by the orchestra. We are now headed east, having only two stops, Altoona, Pa., and Baltimore, Md., and then Philadelphie and New York for an indefinite period. Correne F. Jones would like to hear from Clarice Murin, a graduate of Holy Cross College. You will visit any member of the company during our stay in her city. CARMOUCHE AND MITCHELL A fine letter was received this week from the well-known performers Carmouche and Mitchell, telling of their wonderful success this season. We see shoot with a fine press notice clipped from the Atlanta Independent; "Shake Your Feet, Carmouche and Mitchell's great show, received a hearty welcome from a large and appreciative audience at 81 Decatur St. Friday night in the midnight frolic and we have been enchained the best Race show yet shown to Atlantians. "The performers took the house by storm Friday night, and not only the actors on the stage had their feet shaking, every foot in the house jumping the wail of the organized five-piece jazz orchestra. "Cleo Mitchell, former wife of King Rustus, called the greatest buck-and-wing dancer on the stage, clearly demonstrated her ability to shake a mean pair of wooden shoes "Coot' Grand and 'Kid' Wilson, whose vocal achievements have been heard in many parts of the United States on records, gave several familiar selections, which were received with hearty applause. NEW OCESS 125 ers medienne you're being records, it just been a record e a Pallet On "Make Me a Pallet on The Floor" DRAMA AND DIALECT By CLARENCE E. MUSE In my survey of the many attempts by dramatic authors to create a Negro drama, I find that the dialect used in a great number of Race plays is important in the general construction. I have also read many works for and against the use of dialect. I think what the real original dialect of certain characters among our race is very eloquent. There is a need to be able to handle these expressions and when carefully injected into Negro dramas, I believe, it will be that something more popular. For the benefit of the argument, note the many stories running in the Saturday Evening Post and pick out some of the dialect expressions. You will admit those used to register paths or humor are the same in construction, but when used in the proper atmosphere land the desired impact with a naturalness that is unique. As an example, there was a situation in one of Roy Cohen's stories where a Birmingham motion picture company tract with a large New York concern. The deal had been executed by the president of the firm who lived in New York, and that their representative, a young New York face man, should deliver the contracts in person when they were sent, duly signed by the president. The New York agent felt that he was a superior business man and held the contracts. He went to Birmingham with the idea of convincing the president for the pictures. Here is the situation: The New Yorker arrives in Birmingham and meets the president. The northerner's diction was correct; the southern gentleman was all indirect: "Yo said 'yeo kip' at least $5,000 mo' on den contracts" says the president of the Birmingham Motion "Why, certainly. If you should offer a counter proposition, it is pos- sible that you would drive a better bargain." "Dat's the bes' we kin gitt. 'Taint another firm in New York dat 'll buy at all. I don't 'tried em." The agent was surprised to learn that the customer and canvassed the whole selling field. "So you think $2,500 good for two comedies." The president leaned back in his chair and said, "Taint noth' else but. Git back to New York'an pawned dem contracts fo' de said $2,000." Here is a real business situation, powerfully told in dialect. A bit of a profound study of common sense, the Birmingham president. A peep at some of our spirituals is all that is necessary to find pathos in dialect. "Nobody knows de troubles I seen," is a good study. I have heard Roland in spirituals I have seen many in his audacious cry. I believe will be a very important element in the coming Race drama. LOWERY HONORED Cleveland.

The Indianapolis club left tonight for Chicago for a four-game series against the Cleveland club. Manager DeMoss predicts victory. He has many former teammates in line-up, including William Fultrone, Miller, Tyler and others. This same Mullen brought Chick Sugars here twice and we had the pleasure of sitting in his office. Sugars manager, willing to some, but what white boy wants to fight Sugars? Few. and why? Because Sugars is not cared for, didn't care to lose their reputations by going up against someone that they weren't sure of beckling. And Sugars didn't have to have brought Black Bill, the Cubs here; also McCey and Jack Ockers, but none of the white boys' managers would take on these fighters. Not the color blue, but the brown skins - Billy Washington has the same trouble in Philadelphia today. No one wants any of Billy's rights and lefts. Here in Chicago, with the amateur bouts sliding along all O. K., there is more trouble. At Johnson's gym there has been a decided effort to get Roy Williams on with some crack white boy, since Ralph Basket's manager doesn't want him to fight Roy in any more of the amateur goes. But the white boys are willing to take on any one but Roy. Same way with them in the case of Ralph. Basket fought at East Chicago last Friday and won. He fought a white boy. The week before he fought one of his own Hace and made such a good showing that he was given the right spot of the card, and this by Mullen, too. The color line plays an important part in boxing as well as in other SORE MUSCLES STIFF JOINTS RHEUMATISM! This warm weather makes you want to get out and do a heap of things you can't do in bad weather. But you need joints which have been idle for a long time they are found to become sore and stuff if they are saturated with the rheumatic poison which they have been exposed to. Some folks suffer the more serious effects of rheumatism, such as stabbing pains, swollen arms, legs and joints, the cause of bruises which the blood carries the nerve centers and the flesh and leaves them there. The Liver, Kidneys and Bladder don't clear them unless you have them known as C-2225, because it helps them get rid of their rheumatic points and suffering without having to wait forever. They have two sizes, which are the same, and to do is to ask for prescription C-2225. The minute you start taking this prescription every round your blood makes through your veins and arteries, carries rich, red, pure blood to every muscle, nerve and joint and takes back the acid poisons which have been released from your joints as if you were many years younger.

It's there, it is true, but there is a whole lot of times the team doesn't catch a handle because the team can't do a handful of want him to do. We go to East Chicago, we go to Aurora, and we play the team in a tonomotoc, the brother's attend. He doesn't support shows where his own are placed on the bill, but sits back and does the howling, and the percentage is terribly small. Tex Rickard may break into the game in Chicagou, but it will not be the team's best chance to landlord. If his Madison Sumner-Garden arena for Chicago goes through Mullen will lease it on a 5. The same Mullen we speak of is and has always been plain Jim--he was always plain Jim--and the proposed clause Kim wanted inserted in the boxing law against mixed bouts. As we said before, this is illogical and we have the state-one of them is Mullen.

That Rash earned at least a shout. Harry Shaw, another fighter of the Harry Shaw team, came same outfit in the person of Phil Chandler. Both boys threw enough heavy punches that never landed to the opponent. The encounter was lively without any damage being done and went the limit of eight rounds. At 360ft, paired with Frank Bowie of Fort Bay, sent the hard-hitting soldier middleweight to the canvas for the full count in six round openers. The time was 5:30 seconds after the boys had staged.

The 24th "marrieress" failed to murder the horsehide, and he was wounded.

The fray was in the sixth fanning. The leagues had threatened Tramnel as early as the firing, but smart thinking and intelligence mothered a potential Baronial uprising. In ther first half of the first game, McAlister and Mitchell singled in succession. Tramnel caught Mack asleep at second, so King tagged him. He was out at first.

ACTS RESPECTABLE WELL, I'M BACK, LEROY = HAS THE COUNT BEEN HERE YET? --- WILEY, WITH SAD SAM ON MOUND, WINS Bishop Falls, 3 to 2, on Wildcats' Diamond Marshall, Texas, April 23.

She's a great man, and he's Smith and she's care form and held the slugging Baptists in check, allowing but four hits, no walks and fanning four with perfect support. He has never received a result. Davis was almost as good as Smith, allowing only six hits, passing one and fanning four. However, Wiley only x-ray-back, with men on and spelled the downfall of the Bishop star. Spikner, Bishop was third by a terrier line, and he was on the bar of Schallford in the first inning and had to be removed from the game, several stages in the next necessary. Giron singled with one gone in the opening from Shackelford hit a liner to Spikner so fast that the line was so short as to be in the striking him in the forehead and, holding over the fence for a home run, noting the Cuts two markers.

IN AND AROUND NEW YORK By SQUARE DEAL To those remaining few who knew not the opinion of the Duke of Muldoon, who would like to be considered the father of the boxing fishers and the man who, without grace, was forced to relinquish the chairmanship of the New York state athletic commission, which controls "boxing in the Empire state, anent a sunsex-Wills fight, it is here for he or she who runs to read. Mr. Muldoon is at last on record as being unqualifiedly against allowing Harry Wills the chance to fight for the world's heavyweight championship, and those contentions, brought into play by Mr. Muldoon in support of his attitude, are forcing even writers of his own race to the conclusion that the old man has returned to his second childhood with a senility that is alarming—alarming in that such as the man who came early from Ireland to escape what the Irish have always termed England's tyrannies, could find a seat in the councils of such an important institution as the New York state athletic commission. Alah be praised. There you remains some fine characters among the men of the opposite race, inscrutable sands—mayhap millions—of readers scattered throughout the length and breadth of the land. It is to these friends at court that we must look for. We must whose only crime up to date is that he is a member of the Race which America insists on trying to keep alive after thumbing the pages of history and recalling what has been accomplished in the making of the republic by Race men and women. Over there in Boyle's Thirty Acres, Mr. Rickard, the Texan, who came into prominence and gained fisticuffs in Race fighters as artists of the padded mitt, would stage the battle of the sane brush between one Gene Tunney, a well dog from among the race fighters, and browbeating Haitians, Santo Domingos and Virgin Islanders than for what they accomplish on the opportunity to show the truth or falsity of the much-vaunted claim to superiority by those of Nordic In the meantime, Walk Miller, erstwhile manager of Tiger Flowers, brings us the comic relief so necessary in the tragedy heine caused by meeting Dempsey in the rooftop arena. Mr. Miller, the other day, announced that Jack Dougherty's attempt to broadcast a match between the Tiger and the Raptors was put off press agency on the part of Dougherty. "With all due respect to Estridge and his manager," opined Mr. Miller, "we think will draw the Tiger out. Not that we fear Estridge, but Larry is all shot and has been over since his last match with Panama Joe Gans, and I don't believe a corporal's guard would turn out to see the Tiger the former Harlem favorite to pieces." Which, if you know what we mean, carries more truth than poetry, and is more difficult to up process to retrieve the place he once enjoyed in the affections of the fans, and until such time as he can have a chance to defeat Tiger Flowers while back paddling, few will take seriously the intensive camaraderie in behaith of a prosewoman who once gave great promise of being not only in the money, but also harboring many friends, many shared with the hard-hitting Larry when he was the "cock of the walk" at the Commonwealth Sport Smothered by the size of the issue between Dempsey and Wills, few realize that another face fisher is better than a fish. "Silent Harry," but in a more quiet way, Harry Cook, that Buffalo boy who astounded and crested a crowd, whipped Sid Terris to a fierce-throat up state a few months back, instead to New York seeking a rebuke of the game holds that Terris should be the one seeking a return enqueue with Cook, but since the mountain obstinately refused to go to New York, he went to the mountain and that is --- ```markdown ``` --- --- just what Cook did. In this case, however, the mountain, after going through a terrifying convulsions, Cook warmed his heels in the big city, hoping live managers, wise to the possibilities of such a match will give him a chance to meet Tetris before the people of the big city. The outdoors made such an assistant call last week, basketball contender the change minus the services of "Fat Cat," who here to rejoin his mates on the Harriburg nine the same night the Renaissance appeared in her last game and the diamond in the near future and from now on our interest must be focused on tennis, baseball and, believe it or not, golf. A number of enlightened men made an attempt to create interest in this latter game, and this year they are going about it in a bigger way an organization having been made making golf one of the pastimes patronized by the Race here. Attorney J. Mercer Burrell fired his first shot of the year by issuing last year's ratings of the American Tennis association, which judging the past, should enjoy another big season. Hordentown last year welcomed the championships and wherever they are staged this year it is on hand to see the raquet wielders perform. Edgar Brown is bent on staging a sensational comeback with Tally Holmes of Washington entertaining the same idea, and the players are ready. The acid test to retain laurels wrestled from veterans who must realize that their day of having a corner on the honors of the not game has come faded into something of the past. Harlem Jack McVey has been having quite a run of hard luck. When he is "right" they experience the devil's own time trying to match his speed. When he is disposed they die him up and throw him in. Billed to fight Young Jack Dempsey at the Commonwealth Sport club last Saturday night. McVey had the hard luck to get word of his brother was killed and his grandfather at Athens, Ga., passed away. Tough luck for as fine a fighter as ever pulled on a glove and a most gentlemanly one at that. His many friends lining which it is said is in every dark cloud. Tiger Cancels Greb Bout: Eue Is Hurt New York, April 26.—Walk Miller, manager of Tiger Flowers, middleweight champion of the world, notified Jess McMahon, matchmaker at Flower's square garden, today that Flowers will contract to meet Harry Greh at the garden May 25, owing to an injured eye suffered in a match with Italian Joe Gans at Warriors-Barre, Pa.

YOUNG Hampton, Va., April 24—Edward Hargrove, the stalwart Hampton moundsmaster, allowed but three scat-tored hits and the Seasiders took a history from Union university, 6 to 1. For the first time this season, Hampton's diamond squad assumed the captaincy for the first time playing with Hampton, drew in two wonderful running catches, and McGowan handled several difficult chances. He held the ball out a double in a triple in four trips to the plate. Byrd, who was forced out of the game in the fourth with a sprained ankle, smashed out a double in the second in a double, accounted for the Seasiders' initial run. On a few occasions, Merritt, Union's righthander, showed the stuff that held Hampton hitless on Easter, and the Seasiders loaded and none down, he fed his opponents so effectively that two were forced out at home and a third caught at third in an attempt to score. The Seasiders were able to fathom his curves for timely hits. In the opening frame, Shields drew a free ride and after stealing a sack from Union never seriously threatened. JACK OAKES WHIPS YOUNG JACK DEMPSEY BY SQUARE DEAL New York, April 24. Jack Oakes, late of Buffalo, now of Chicago, was given the decision over the University of Tennessee. Commonwealth Sports club here tonight. The fight was lacking in everything that goes toward making a real lust combination, these days of fast and furious action. The former Buffalo boy failed to take advantage of the many opportunities which presented themselves like the provoibil farm gate. Dempsey was hardly any better and the decision could have very well been in the first 12 rounds. Eddie O'Dowd pressed Benny Hall of St. Louis good and plenty. The works opened with good and most impressive left of the face. The latter took these jabs in good grace for the first two rounds and opened in the third with a body attack that made O'Dowd look mighty. Hall kept this up until the seventh round, when O'Dowd jumped to force a forehand to look the ball up for a round. The last shot the white boy made Hall look anything but the reputed cyclone. This bout also kicked the thrills which Commonwealth fans have been trained to or when mixed bouts are in order. Next Saturday night there will be no mixed bouts at this club, marking the first year that a Race fighter has failed to be carded, even in the opening four-rounder. In all the years the Commonwealth has been winning the departure, where McMahon, now matchmaker at the garden, tried his best to avoid. A. AND T. TAKE TWIN BU Greensboro, N. C.

BROWN LOSES DECISION New York, in April 23—Boxing fans who sat in here tonight at the old horse market, now known as the Pioneer, Athletic club, to witness the battle between Al Brown and Abs Goldstein were far from pleased, even though at the end of the so-called scandal Goldstein was given the decision. --- A Diamond Studded Championship Belt to Be Given Tiger Flowers, Our First Middleweight World Champ We believe the success of Tiger Flowers, world's middleweight champion, has already received much of your attention. He is the first one of our group to attain the world's championship in the middleweight division. His clean living has won him admiration. He is a deacon of his church. He is also an Elk. The Sports department of The Chicago Defender believes that Flowers is due some act of appreciation or some token from his own race. We, therefore, suggest a championship belt, possibly diamond studded, to remain in his possession the remainder of his life and then to be passed on to his heirs. We will publish the list of donors and will accept anything from one cent up towards this belt fund, the list of donors to be presented to the middleweight champion when the belt is presented to him. We urge all school children to play their part, all churchmen, all boxing fans and all the admirers of the man whose fame has been spread the world over. Let your name be on the roll of honor.

Rain, snow and cold have kept most of the teams from protecting them from giants have had one game. St. Louis, the broth and Choverland have been badly handled by the weather and fadlanapoids has been about froze, at Kansas City, playing through Kansas and five games in St. Louis has had the edge on the rest of the clubs. The Cubans, still on the Island. Fay from practicing. The American Giants have had one game, St. Louis, and Cleveland have been loudly handicapped by the weather and Indianapolis has been out. Kansas City, playing through Kansas and five games in St. Louis, has had the edge on the rest of the clubs. The Cubans, still on the Is land, a great better condition when they hit here than any of the other clubs. The Cubans will play as an associate member of the association, and the league change in last-minute chance consists of clubs. From a close study of past performances, the line-up of the men who compose the band will be the first half: American Giants, Kansas City, St. Louis, Detroit, Cleveland, St. Louis, Detroit, wrong in many cases and the teams "just don't have to finish" the way we have placed them. Indianapolis gets a new manager in a real try-out in a new role. The former captain of the American Giants has many of his former mates under his wing. Marlboro steps into the role of captainship of the American Giants. The third sacker takes DeMoss' place, from the team. The story of the new men, the possibilities of the Chicago team winning the pennant is another story. Taylor is at the helm in Cleveland. Although we pick the Elites in fifth place, Jim and Sam Shepard, the Cleveland owners, see nothing but bland flagpole. Jim will be greatly missed in St. Louis, where he developed a wonderful ball club last year, Russell with Diskmuses in help him. Higgins, shortstop at Detroit, is made manager in the place left vacant by Bruce Peterson. Our portoh has his surprise walks the fans in that city, as Pierce and his secretary, Derrick, has left no stone unturned to make a championship club. He has the Kay Sees and that "enough sold." We all know the former army man and what he can do. With favorable weather being prepared the season ought to be a hummer. BOXERS NEED CURBING With the boxing bill just having been voted over, boxers are now paying a way to kill the grouse that hold the mission is formed the better. The sooner that working arrangements and rules have been formulated the better for the public, which at the moment is formed the better. The in past at the so-called amateur bouters boxers have been getting medals and those medals are nothing more than Uncle Sam's greenbacks, paid $5 and the loser $250. Then so many so-called clubs sprang up, running "amateur show," that the price was raised the sum was $5, the winner was $25, the winner was $5, or many cases two boxers would agree to split the purse—$5 and $5. As the bill was about to go over the most places $8 boxers went up again, and $4 to the loser, with the privilege of the boxers splitting $6 and $6. But now when one paymaster went to the boxers, we found that these fellows were demanding $10 and better. How come? Then to cap the climax a promoter came into the office early Monday to explain that the main boxer that sent word over by another boy Saturday night to phone him if the "house" was big enough and he'd come over, notwithstanding the boxer that sent him the boxer was advertised to box that same boxer, result this certain boxer won't box at two clubs on the South side. He is unreachable. Of the boys working in the so-called amateur matches have been hungry as a wolf all winter. Many cases have been brought to our attention where the same boys have fought four or five times a week and are in a bad condition. In no cast so far have we been able to find over three men in any division who are capable of going for the rounds. The amateur commission is formed the better. The boxer has shown in less than two weeks that he needs calming down and calming down in a big hurry. Fred Irwin did something that will no To Managers of College, Semipro and League Baseball Clubs Mail your scores special delivery night of games to insure publication.

Just as John Lester Johnson was losing he fouls the Mexican heavyweight and the folks out in the West think John is a long way from the man who was press aggranted as being a long way from challenging Mr. Dempsy. --- In the meantime Jack Johnson is all primed for his fight with Pat Lester on the Mexican border Sunday. The big fellow thinks he will win by a knock-out, and if he does plans are already under way to take on the Mexico City. Johnson is 48. Can he come back? Sunday will tell the tale. --- The Eastern league wins into action in the midst of a stalable and Harrisburg look the best in the league. Limitsime having a splendid chance, the clubs will be with the idea pass. --- The Southern league and the Chicago Sunday School league as well as meet all other leagues also who into action. It will be baseball, basketball, the Chicago Defender will be boxing. The Chicago Defender will be informed as to clubs and the outcomes of games, the standing etc. One thing that Illinois must guard against is the decisions now that boxing has been taken over of the counties. In Cleveland last week, Suggs was given a draw with Datto, although Suggs won over his opponent. Referee Davis pulled, he intentionally or unintentionally a boner, according to correspondents. The decision should have zone to Suggs. That is a fact known to all the fans present. The boxing com- ments Illinois is going to have its hands full. The team up of men who know how and when to act and we are averse to having our boxers treated here like they are in Cleveland and in New York. We are the "something in the woodpecker" in Dempsey match. Illinois should copy after Pennsylvania and place one of our own, fully competent, on the commission. Charles Fred White has surely made good. We have men on do the same thing. The Defender is against any sort of discrimination.

Willett, Mrs Philadelphia, Pa., April 26—Entering into its fourth season as an orator, Eastern Colored league members bending efforts toward building a more uniform schedule and pursue methods that will eradicate conditions that will hinder team meetings. A drastic rule was put into force that will materially effect lugging league members. The league passed that no club in the circuit would be eligible to compete in the world's series as a league representative and will also be allowed to compete in the money if they fail to compete in at least 50 league games during the current season. The present ruling is that the league will disaffection among member clubs effecting a choice of playing dates and confining and drawing to narrow confines the number of games that will be played at home by the respective clubs. As in former years the league is basing its lay-out on a 70-game schedule. In all prior seasons some teams were short on their total of games for the season. Taking into consideration the fact that some of the clubs are now operating in leased parks and those parks are available on the road, also that other clubs are what might be formed established Sunday clubs, playing only this one day a week at home, and furthermore the teams present without any parks, presents without any park situation that will take a bit of time and finance to adjust. For this reason the league commissioners see sound judgment in permitting reasonable adjustments to the league schedule. However, with all of the clubs voicing their sentiment as 100 percent for organization and realizing it is imperative for the performance perpetual baseball for the sport, it is a foregone conclusion that each club is going out with the intention of playing the allotted number of games. While the players have built for our clubs to perform in and when our players can be offered inducements that will in a way measure up to salaries that are now being received by white players, organizers are still looking for more desired and well merited conditions. Now that most of the Eastern league clubs have broke into the sport sheet with box scores of pre-season games, the over-watchful fan is able to size up the line-ups from familiar games and upon players of past reputations. But with many of the league players endured during the preseason games were played with make-shift line-ups and the real strength of the respective clubs were not present. The Baltimore Black Sox played with George Brandon Day, Crush George Brandon Tarleton Strong in their ranks, these men are really half of a strong ball club.

In a game replay with the brilliant fielding of J. Russell late in the Memphis Red Sox battles the St. Louis Giants in the suttles and the masterful pitching of Harrison, who proved a hero in defeat, the St. Louis Stars defeated the Giants here today by a 10 to 1 score. This same Harrison, who held the Stars to a 3-2 score in an exhibition game, was equally effective, his defense blowing up behind him at critical times. Eight Stars went back to the second inning down, swimming at the tipped strike. J. Russell climaxed his sensational playing ability on the keystone sack by headhunting the Stars, getting into the ninth inning and forcing out Clark at second with a perfect toss to Watts, who had reeled in the at the beginning of the second inning. In the game today was his first of the season, he having been injured.

My mother had some CARDUI For Female Troubles in the house that she was taking, so she immediately went to the few days I got all right. "Last fall I got run-down in health. I was weak and I would get so I could hardly walk. Having taken Cardui before, I sent to the store for a bottle of it. Almost from the door I could feel an improvement. "Cardui has helped me a lot and I am glad to recommend it. I don't feel like the same woman I was last week. I don't know now, and I'm sure it's Cardui that made it pick up."

PROVING MASTER OF OUR WOMEN'S ILLS So-Called "Female Troubles" So Common Among Our Women Due in Nine Cases Out of Ten to One Dreaded Malady. Human nature is the same today as it has always been. The first thing which occurs to our women and girls when they are told about the principle which is making the phenomenal medicine known as St. Joseph's G. F. P. so amazingly successful in relieving and helping women who were sick and suffering from so-called "female troubles" is something like this: "Why on earth didn't someone find that out long ago and tell our women about it?" And when we come to think of it, it certainly is a peculiar thing! Countless thousands of women and girls have suffered through all the ages of civilization from some cause which no one seemed to know or could find out about, and all the time only one simple fact was lacking to free them from the pain and misery caused by those embarrassing and distressing troubles such as headaches, backaches, pains in the sides and limbs, irregularity, cramping, nausea, dizziness, fainting spells, nervousness, those horrible hearing-down pains and that awful run-down and worn-out feeling of apprehension and depression so common among them. WOMEN WERE WAITING WITH WIDE OPEN ARMS --- Women were waiting with wide open arms, so to speak, for something which would relieve them of these awful symptoms, which invariably drag them down, weaken their muscles and tissue and dissipate their nerve-force energy and vitality. That is why so many of them tried first one thing and then another, when they were almost certain they would get no help from these hit or miss methods, and that is one of the many reasons for the immediate and continued growth in popularity of the wonderful medicine, St. Joseph's G. F. P. WOMEN HURRYING TO GET THEIR G. F. P. No wonder women are in such a hurry to secure a supply of this marvelous medicine when they can see with their own eyes, and hear wherever they go, the almost miraculous things it is doing for their fellow women. The important but seemingly very simple discovery that Caturrh of the Female organ is the real cause of fully ninety percent of our women's weakness and pain from so-called "female troubles," led the discoverors of St. Joseph's G. P. P. to make it what is believed to be the first direct specific for the relief of this terrible malady of women. They conceived the idea that if the cause of woman's suffering could be removed, health and happiness could easily be restored to them. How correct they were in their belief is being shown every day now by the countless thousands of our women and girls who are regaining their health and strength with an abundance of youthful vigor through the consistent use of this phenomenal medicine. BUILDS UP HER STRENGTH QUICKLY Mrs. Elenor Lockett, who lives at 710 Thomas St. North, Birmingham, Ala., says: "I was in a terribly weakened and run-down condition, and it just seemed as though I could not get my strength back. Then I used being in Joseph F. Ghey and by being in Joseph F. Ghey my first bottle, I felt like a new woman. Now I am as strong and healthy as any woman could want to be." ENDS TERRIBLE CRAMPING SPELLS "I suffered something awful from cramping spells every month," says Mrs. Flora Johnson, another Birmingham woman of our group, who lives at 206 Avenue D. West. "I heard how G. F. P. is helping other women, so I started using it. Now I hardly know what it is to have a cramping spell and feel stronger than I had in years." PAINS IN BACK AND LEGS DISAPPEAR "I don't know what I would do without St. Joseph's G. F. P. says Mrs. Eugenia Stewart, who lives at Cruser Miss. "When I started using this medicine I suffered so much from pain in my back and legs I couldn't sleep, didn't warp" to eat and G. F. P. called the pain right away and now I never have an nike or a pain of any kind. Have a dandy appetite, sleep like a healthy child, and any gaining in strength every day." STOPS SICK, DIZZY HEADACHES Another woman of our group, who lives in Fort Worth, Texas, at Hagerstown, 5, Box 2260, Mrs. L. M. Hargas, says "Dizzy, slick headaches was making life a misery for me until I started using G. F. P. This medicine caused the pain right from the start and be the time I had finished the first bottle. I had almost forgotten what it was like to have a headache." n every st rem ck reli Women everywhere are telling the most remarkable stories of Quick relief, using G.F.P. M. MEMPHIS, TENN.—"I had a misery in my side and back", says Mrs. Annie Frazier, of 1327 Adelaide St., this city. "And it just seemed as though I couldn't get any relief until I started using G.F.P. This wonderful medicine helped me right from the start and now the pain is all gone". [Image of a woman with dark hair styled in waves, wearing a dark top and a necklace with large dangling earrings.

LA.—"There is nothing like St.Joseph's G.F.P.", says Mrs. Tecora Lyons of 1655 Anna St., this city" "When I started using this medicine, I felt so tired and worn-out, it was a real effort for me to get around the house; but now, I feel as strong as I did when I was a girl".

Hargro, who lives at 3614 Rawlins St., this city, says: "Before I started using St. Joseph's G. F. P. my sides were so sore I could hardly bear to have my clothes touch them. My back ached all the time and I would have terrible headaches and cramping spells. Now I never have an ache or a pain of any kind". ```markdown ``` If your dealer can't supply you with St.Joseph's G.F.
