BLEASE SAYS HE IS RACE'S BEST FRIEND
Gives Self Big Pat on Shoulder
Washington, D. C., March 23.
The people of South Carolina will oppose the election of any man as president of the United States who believes in social equality and does not draw the "color line," Senator Coleman L. Blease, Democrat, of South Carolina, declared in an interview Tuesday, explaining his insertion into the Congressional Record of an article from The Chicago Defender concerning the Oswald Garrison Villard dinners.
"My reason for putting that article in the Congressional Record," Senator Blease said, "was that I wanted the people of the South to know the real conditions in Washington and to further know that there are men in politics in the nation who do not drawn the "color line" and are willing to help the people of the United States of America people and associate with them on equal terms."
Senator Blease added, "Of course, that is their business if they desire to do so, but it is our business to protect ourselves from placing in office any man who might attempt to take some conditions upon us in the South."
It is believed that Senator Please and had reference to Senator Thomas J. Walsh, Democrat, of Montana, who is a candidate for the Democratic nomination, when he inserted the Defender article in the Congressional Record and made his original statement that "Some men do not mind associating at the table with certain candidates in my state might object to voting for that kind of a man for president of the United States."

Names His "Friends"
Senator Blease referred to a number of men in South Carolina, including Rev. R. W. Mance, whom he hopes and believes will be elected to the bishopric at the next general conference of the African Methodist Episcopal church, and R. S. Wilkinson, Carolina Normal and Industrial college.
"I am satisfied," he said, "that they will bear me out in the position that they do not ask for social equality, nor do they seek it, neither are they anxious to hold official positions.
"I am satisfied further that the entire Colored population of my state will testify to the fact that the southwest is the most populous region. I believe if it were left to the Colored voters of my state, and each and every one of them had the power to cast his vote as he pleases, 90 per cent of them would vote for me for my office for which I might be a candidate."
Referring to the bill which he has finished in the Senate to provide separate coaches on street railways in the District of Columbia, Senator Blease said that this bill "is not intended as a political strike at or insult to the Negro race, but I believe that the passage of such a bill will prevent at some time very serious trouble in the District of Columbia.
Prensa Servant
"Some white man at some time," he stated, "is going to resist or resent a Colored man's, or what he considers (Continued on Page 2)."
THIS PAPER CONSISTS OF
TWO PARTS - PART ONE
NOW FIREWORKS WILL START IN LOWER HOUSE
Washington, D. C., March 23.—A bill to prohibit the intermarriage of the races in the District of Columbia was introduced the House of Representatives Saturday by Representative Alard H. Gusque, Democrat of South Carolina. This bill would make it unlawful in the District of Columbia for any white man to intermarry with any "woman of our Race, or married to any woman of our Race, or mulatto; or vice versa.
The intermarriage of a white and Colored person is made a law, and the marriage of the bill and punishment is fixed not less than two or more than five years imprisonment.
Any clergyman, minister of the gospel, magistrate, or any other person authorized by law to perform knowingly and willingly married a white and Colored person, would be guilty of a misdemeanor and would be subject to the same punishment.
The Gassus intermarriage bill is identical with a bill introduced in the senate by Senator Coleman L. Blease, Democrat, also of South Carolina.

Police Halt Whitfield Funeral FLORIDA BARS VOTERS 2,500 Wait in Vain to See Remain
REGISTRATION BOOKS CLOSED BY OFFICIALS
Say Primaries Are for "Whites Only"
Pensacola, Fla., March 23.--State officials, after investigating "alarming" reports from this city and Tallahassee that members of the Race were registering in overwhelming numbers for the forthcoming Democratic primary, ordered the state attorney general to issue an opinion that the Florida law excluded members of the Race from participating in primary elections and that such action on their part should be met by criminal proceedings.
County solicitors have been ordered not allow members of the Race to register or vote in the forthcoming elections.
Since the registration books were opened at the courthouse, 50 per cent of the voters registered have been members of the Race, and according to those in charge of the books, this is the first time ever that the Race has registered in a Democratic primary since the Civil War. All of those registering have classed themselves as Democrats. They are preparing to take part in the city and state primaries. Under the classification it is known that the Civil war the primary is known as the "white Democratic primary."
The white Democrats contend that their organization is private and has the right to bar those with whom they do not care to affiliate at the polls. The opinion voiced by members of the Democratic caucus in the state is that they have been denied the right to vote as republicans in the primaries and can only vote as Democrats. The suddenness of their large registration as Democrats in order to put their candidates in offices has caused alarm in the state. The "Democrats" will vote for Democrats pledging to give them better schools, playgrounds, parks and paved streets, but will vote independently during the national election. Regardless of the section taken by the state's executive committee and the state, race citizens will continue to visit the registration places. They are preparing to fight opposition to their registering in the state courts and in the United States supreme court. It was pointed out that the state's executive committee in Texas by Democrats was carried to the United States supreme court by citizens of that state and won. The voters contend that their rights given them under the federal Constitution have been denied them the right to vote in the election of public officers should be open to them regardless of unwritten laws and the opinion of whites in control of certain parties.

CLEMENCY TO BE EXTENDED HEIR OF JUDD
Albany, N. Y., March 23.—When Judd Gray was making his last bequests before his electrocution here with Ruth Snyder for the murder of the woman's husband, he asked that the warden give $5 to Frank Baldwin to buy cigars for the murder. Baldwin was convicted by the fact that the man seemed to be alone and no one ever visited him in the death house. Gov. Al Smith has just made public his intentions of reviewing the case against Baldwin. The jury in the case is scheduled for March 29. Baldwin was sentenced to die for the murder of a Seneca county farmer.
GIRL ON TRIAL WHO SLEW MAN AT HIS REQUEST
Alturas, Calif., March 23.—Indian psychology, which caused the red man to take another's word at face value, has been made the basis of the defense of Cassie Turner, Indian girl, who was called before the white man's tribunal here recently to answer to the slaying of Robert Declute. The girl, who calmly accepted the challenge of Declute to kill him when he found he could not win her love, is charged with manslaughter. Her story of the affair was simple. "He asked me to marry him, and when I refused, he asked me to shoot him. He rolled a cigarette while he was telling me how to use the gun. I pulled the trigger and went away." Jack Sharpe, veteran northern California attorney, who came out of retirement to defend Cassie, announced that he would contend that Declute knew enough of Indian psychology to realize that the girl would compel her to marry him with the same willingness that she would "give him a drink of water."
PULLMAN PORTERS GIRD FOR NEW FIGHT IN WAGE DEMAND
The brotherhood is undaunted by the decision of the interstate commerce commission that it has no jurisdiction in the case. It came as no surprise. The brotherhood had not at stake its fortunes on the decision of the commission. It was only one maneuver in the porters wage movement. Instead of creating despair, it has provoked a flaming zeal of renewed
loyalty and devotion by the porters to the union. It has aroused a resistless, fighting spirit on the part of the porters. It has had the happy influence of serving as a means for developing a militant battle cry for victory.
With undying faith in the justice of their cause, with unmatched and uncompromising courage, they like resolution to carry on in the teeth of the bitterest opposition, hundreds of porters are daily filing into the division headquarters of the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters, reaffirming their allegiance to the cause, renewing their courage and reaffirming their commitment and will to win to the brotherhood.
Porters Plan Program
As one porter, 25 years in the service, after reading the decision of the commission, came into the office in New York and with moving dramatic power declared his pledge to stand by the organization, skim or swim, live or die, survive or perish. Taking out his checkbook he said, "My answer to this decision is anything you request me to contribute to rebuilding our right to live in the city." This is a supreme test which porters must unfinchingly meet and conquer regardless of cost or consequences," he said, "and I am fighting not for my alone, but for the generations of youths yet to come."
In all division of the organization the ed-blooded, manly spirit is evident.

Arkansas Life Termer Granted Full Pardon
Little Rock, Ark., March 23.—Immanuel West, who was convicted for an attack on a woman seven years ago and was sentenced to life imprisonment, was granted a full pardon last Monday by Gov. John E. Martineau just before he retired from the governorship. The governor, after examining the transcript in the case, stated that he was convinced that West had an unshakable alibi and was only convicted on the imperfect identification of the victim, who was the state's principal witness. Many prominent white citizens of the city were imprisoned for the release of the life termer, among whom was former Gov. George W. Donahay.
Pastor, Mind on Sermon,
Cincinnati, Ohio, March 23. — The Rev. Wilbur Pauer, 32 years old, 1979 Keeper Ave., pastor of the Union Baptist church, was speeding in his automobile down Gilbert Ave. when he was halted by a traffic cop and told to appear in court Tuesday. "What have you to say?" Judge George E. Tibbs of the traffic court asked the minister. "Your honor, I had my mind on my sermon. Rev. Page explained. The priest himself of the churchman accepted the explanation of discharged him. It was Rev. Page's first offense. He thanked the court as he smiling left the room.
NATIONAL
EDITION
Cleveland, Ohio, March 23. —The battle over the display of the body of John Leonard Whitfield, life-timer, who was slain following a spectacular escape from the Ohio penitentiary at Columbus, ended abruptly last Friday when the body was buried in Harvard Grove cemetery with a police squad in attendance. After a day of conflict with the courts and undertakers, the police, under Safety Director Barry and Chief Graul, went to the undertaking establishment of Frazier, Wynne Friday before a crowd gathered and announced that the funeral must be held immediately. The body was buried without any services. Crowds estimated at more than 2,500 curious persons stood all day last Thursday in front of the parlor's entrance, where a crowd field. More than 1,000 had filed past Whitfield's collin before Deputy Inspector of Police there. Novel arrived on the scene with a police detachment and ordered the crowd dispersed and the doors closed. The police authorities in closing the funeral made business with the undertakers, stated they were acting in the interest of public safety.
The controversy started when the deputy inspector appeared at the funeral parlor last Thursday, and, recording to witnesses, disrupted the funeral in a display from Waverley man while he informed A. K. Wyman that under no consideration was the slain killer's body to be exposed to public view. The undertakers sent their attorneys, Chester K. Gillespie and Roger N. Dillard, to obtain a court order restraining him from his policing. A temporary injunction was issued but recalled when the police explained that they were not interested in interfering with the undertakers' general business and services, but were end-avoting to protect the general welfare of the citizens from viewing the body of Whitfield. "It is the most outrageous thing I ever heard of to have the body of a man who killed a Cleveland policeman on public exhibition, with a crowd of thousands congregating, blocking sidewalks and interfering with traffic police said, things surely result in trouble and might cause a riot. The police acted to prevent the exhibition of the body merely in the interests of the public safety."

Eighth St., was sentenced to 35 days in jail and fired $90 by Judge Samuel Bell. Acting on the women and the arresting officers, Seser, William Adkins and Capt.

Says She Has Already Been Well Paid
New York, March 23.—What was expected to be the most sensational and startling court drama ever staged in the East came to a dramatic end Monday when Justice Alfred H. Townley of the supreme court dismissed the case of Mrs. Letitia Ernestine Brown, who brought action against Carleton Curtis (white), a 60-year-old millionaire, for separation as his common-law wife.
Besides losing in the highest court the right to $250 a week and $20,000 counsel fee, Mrs. Brown was criticized by the court for her past conduct. In dismissing the case the preiding justice declared that it was merely an incident of a meretricious case.
If the wealthy clubman had lived with the woman for 17 years, the court ruled and substantially what ever service was rendered. The trial lasted four days. Most of that time the plaintiff was on the witness stand.
Reveals Colorful Life
Upon direct examination by her lawyer, Richard E. Carey, Mrs. Brown revealed her colorful life with the millionaire. At the age of 17 she was rescued from the path of a sneaking automobile at 54th St. thirty-five miles north of her birth at this point, it was testified by Mrs. Brown. On the same day they had tea together, and this was followed by countless numbers of meetings. At his request, she related, she rented a four-room apartment in W. 54th St. and she lived together as husband and wife. Telling further of Curtis' devotion to her, Mrs. Brown testified:
"When America entered the war he said that German Zeppelin might bomb New York and we'd have to move it. We wouldn't be in danger. He got a beautiful house in Freeport, I. L. He played cards there with Race men. The physicians that attended us knew that we were man and woman so we wouldn't be wedding and introduced him as my husband and he acknowledged it.
Worshipped by Clubman
"He was kind to me. I got $3,000 a month from a trust fund he made for me. He filled the house with flowers—roses, lilacs and chrysanthemums. He said his relatives complained about his living with a Race woman and he told me that he informed them. It suits me. He told me that he saw him. He saw me talking to a bellhop and bawled me out for talking to a man of my own Race." That Curtis was so deeply in love with Mrs. Brown that he went under the name of Harry Brown was brought out in the testimony given by the plaintiff in the letter said to have been a friend of the man was introduced by Carey. It read: "My Darling Letty: I have had two sweet letters from you and you are constantly in my thoughts. I love you, my darling girl, with an unchanging love. It does seem hard that such things are so that I cannot see you as you and I want to do. 15 on the same ship as last year. Write me after now Letty darling, as I will not be able to see you. Good-night, my sweet, darling girl. HARRY."
Another Man Causes Rift
Judging from the questions that were hurled at the woman by Max Steur, who represented Curtis, the break between the pair came when Curtis assumed that Mrs. Brown was given love letters were introduced by the defense counsel that were written to Barland Patton. Further examination proved that Mrs. Brown and Patton had lived in the same place in Paris, one of the missives that the woman had written to Patton was read by Steur. "The only man Tiche ever really loved in her whole life," a part of it read. It was brought out that Patton had made two trips to Paris and one to California, and remained maintained that they were at his expense. Mrs. Brown was sued for the alienation of Patton's affections by his wife some time ago. it was reported. Mrs. Patton lives at 127 W. 141st St. and has their son in custody. For more than a year the son is said to have been Chichele. Curtis is a graduate of Princeton and, like the other members of his family, is listed in the Blue Book, New York's social register. Most of the time he resides at the University club while in the city. Mrs. Brown is married to a woman of the age of 14 she married. Her ad venture missed successful.

PORTERS GIRD FOR NEW TILT IN WAGE ROW
National Strike May Be Called

nation, refused to arbitrate the dispute, though urged by Hon. Edwin P. Porter, the United States mediation board, to so, and since the interstate commerce commission refused jurisdiction, the brotherhood has planned for immediate program action of an emergency, in accordance with the provisions of the railway labor act. The committee has appointed the president of the United States to appoint an emergency board to investigate the entire dispute over a period of days and to submit his findings, which option will be sure of public opinion to compel the Pullman company to accept an adjustment of the dispute between itself and Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters.
A nation-wide campaign is being projected to prepare the Pullman porters and mails for a show-down company. This in the only lesson we can company can understand. Of course, it is not an unnatural condition, for the workers in the subway of New York and miners in western Pennsylvania are being bitterly fought by their employers, trying desperately to prevent the workers from winning their demands in wages and working conditions and the United States senate has been compelled to take cognizance of the struggle. Just as the white workers are determined to meet the opposition unserved and undismailed, so the service are equally determined that for once they will not retreat a single step, and they will be heard.
New Fight Spirit
This is the new spirit of the new Negro tynited on the industrial field by the brotherhood men, in this sense the man company. The company had to be shown that the porters would organize. It had to be shown that they will see that they will see the fight through to the finish. It will be shown that the placing of Filipinos in the port is a yellow dog" contracts down the throats of the porters, the signing of fraudulent, hypothetical loyalty loyalty contracts, porters' loyalty and some intimidated, the sinister and visious influence of the Pullman Porters Benefit association, the refusal of the Pullman company to mediate or the commission, the pitiless and disgraceful treachery of Pullman porter instructors and welfare workers can be seen in the iron battalions of the brotherhood.
The organization is passing through
the organization's first chapter and
it shall emerge marching proudly
forward, holding aloft the immaculate
justice and liberty of the brotherhood.
Grant Increase
In an attempt to weaken the moral of the porters, the company has granted an increase in wages to the Pullman conductors, but continues to label porters who join the brotherhood to fight for justice and not charity as disloyal porters, although Pullman conductors post the notices of their union meetings right in the Pullman offices, circulate their magazine with the names of conductors who are members printed openly in the magazine. In other words, while the company threatens to discharge Pullman porters, who are faithful servants, merely because they see fit to exercise their right to join a union, it increases the wages of the Pullman conductors for being disloyal, since they are members of a union. This is an insult and a challenge to every Pullman porter in particular and Negro in general. Not only have the conductors received an increase in pay, but Filipinos who were placed on the club cars as a threat and intimidation to porters who joined the union have received a wage increase also.
Of course the Pullman company realizes that it will be compelled to supply the car to the porters who fear that the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters will get credit for the increase, as it will. Hence the company will supply the car to the deep sea. It cannot raise to raise the wages of the porters, and when it raises the wages the brotherhood will ride on to greater power as a result. It is not the company that the brotherhood is responsible for the increase, just as it was responsible for the increase a year and a half ago. The company that the decision of the commission would create hopelessness and despair on the part of the men who are forced to exist. But it is obvious that the company does not understand the new spirit of the porter. It still believes that the porter today is no longer from the porter of Hity years ago.
Company Misled
It has been deceived and misled by its trusties, who have told the Pullman company what the company wanted to hear, namely, that our men would not stick to anything long, that our people are dishonest and cannot be relied to stand upon a principle, that the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters and the leader, that the lace didn't have the spirit, stamina or guts to fight to the finish, and hence the porters' union was simply the result of a few agitators who were sure to run away with the porters. With this psychology the company was utterly unprepared to grapple with the condition set up by the Brotherhood of Sleeping Car Porters. They face to face with a group of men who were not for sale, who could not be intimidated, cowed or brow-beaten, and who were ready to go to the mat for a fight to the finish until the just, authorized member of the organization were attained.
Contrary to the company's belief, the leading and most responsible leaders and organizations are backing the movement to protect the interests of the white public in the matters of the justice of our cause, as shown by the various citizens' committees throughout the country in which white persons have enlisted. The company is not only most to hold our trust the brotherhood in order to discourage the men, but it is following a losing and futile program. The organization shall march on to victory if it takes ten years and a sacrifice of immeasurable treasure, a sacrifice of a sacred destiny and a destiny today lies in organization, education and agitation.

NUMBER GAME
STRUCK BLOW
BY TRIPLETS
Atlantic City, N. J., March 23—A campaign by Atlantic City police to stop a gambling craze existing here for a year and paying huge fines for its rampant crime, an arrest of one man, Charles Chernshore, proprietor of a clear store in Atlantic Ave. He was held in bail for $200 in charge of making a book of crime from 16 years ago here" which has gripped Atlantic City housewives and members of the Race.
Luck had dealt the promoters a blow recently. A pop star "hunch," inspired by the fact that it was the third day of the third month, led betters to place large sums on No. 333, which won and paid more than $1000000 on odds of 1 in 10,000 to $10 in various $1 combinations, betters making their own combinations.
The game is said to hinge on the success by the New York clearing reporting its daily transactions.

a Colored man, attention or discourse to some white woman in the street can it is going to lead to an assault. Possess some one in the street to be killed or seriously injured, and it may lead to serious trouble between the races. This can be averted by giving each race the same car service, the same rate, and forces on one or many in any embarrassing situation. It is a question of protecting both races."
Senator Beleisure introduced, he said, the first bill in the state legislature for South Carolina to provide a Rose person, William Rose, who was the personal body servant of General Macy Gregg in the Confederate army.
When General Greg was mortally wounded in a keepsake, Senator Blease related Rose took the body of General Greg home. When the Democrats 'took control of the state in 1876,' said Rose, the president appointed him messenger to the governor. He held this position until his death about 1300. While he held the position, he introduced a bill to pension Rose and received a 'good deal of condensation for trying to get pensions for Colored persons.' There has since been a law pensionsing persons who were in the Confederate army. Seator Blease declared he has served in trustees of an industrial college, Norma, industrial college at Orangeburg, S. C. As governor of the state he was chairman of the board of trustees ex-officio. Each trustee had a ceremonial job in the mornorship to the present, the girls in the domestic science department have sent to him and Mrs. Blease a fruit cake. He delights to refer to this event even on the floor of the Senate.
"I always advocated common school education for the Colored people," he said, "and those things which it takes to make the Colored man a good citizen and to put him into position to take care of himself in whatever deal or transaction in life he might have done." When he was governor of South Carolina, Senator Blease related, "I found the penitentiary overcrowded and overlooked and had served years and years longer than they should have. They had no money to hire lawyers, they had no money to hire them, and I took my secretary and went to the penitentiary and interviewed all of the various prisoners personally, and I relied a thousand times on them and gave them a new chance in life. Up to my present reports not a one of them has been recommitted to eviction of the terms of his parole or having committed any other crime."

KIAN THREATS FAIL TO STOP BOSTON DEBATE
Speakers Flay Racial Intolerances
Boston, Mass., March 23.—In spite of the fact that Harvard and Vard Liberal club (white) established a precedent when they took the affirmative in a debate with the defender, the Tremont temple Thursday evening on the question, "Resolved that Further intermixing of Races in the Harvard Liberal club, Fairbanks, who opened for the Harvard Liberal club, said his teammate, E. Haven Hubbard, 30, and Richard B. Haven Hubbard, 30, members of a student delegation in Moscow last summer. One day, having nothing to do, they evolved the staking this debate when they returned.
Fairbanks said race prejudice is "a hangover from slavery days." He pleaded for social equality and social intermarriage in the internment, the trial, and the so-called did not advocate that because it was an individual matter that should be settled between the two parties, and that no one was not entitled to further rights that there is no separate civilization in America and those contributing to it must not be kept separate. They must intermingle. They must form a coalition. They hammers our civilization because enough money is not provided for the Colored youth in these separate schools. This creates illiteracy and creates crime and unemployment. The segregation of the Race works evil. Thurgood Marshall, the first speaker for Lincoln, maintaining the negativity of the family unit, the basic factor of civilization, was against genuine society, was its enemy and was to be condemned. He confined his argument almost entirely to intermarriage.

E. Haven Hubbard, the last speaker for the affirmative, said that if there were barriers against intermarriages they should be removed. Race proponents have argued that race entrenchment. Black and white people have a similarity of interest in this country. They must intermingle in order to play together. They would continue to intermingle all their lives if they were not contaminated by unpleasant ideas of their olders. They exist when a man shall rise or fall in the civic scale entirely by his intrinsic merit, and it should exist in a democracy most vigorously is that the prejudices of the Ku Klux Klan should be enacted into the laws of our country." Richard Hearst Hill of Lincoln was the first person to argue that he argued on the social consciousness of the white man. He also cited laws that made a Race man with a small percentage of white men a white man in Oklahoma, Indian in Michigan, and Race man in Florida. A vote was not taken, but from the youths had won.

GEORGIA HIGH COURT ORDERS VENUE CHANGE
Atlanta. Ga. March 23. — The Georgia supreme court on Friday, on Monday, ordered a county venue from Merkwether county for the trial of Marshall Redding, charged with killing W. H. Callaway, chief of police of Manchester. Redding was denied a change of venue by Judge C. E. Ropp of the court. A superior court case resulted in mishrist, 11 of the jurors voting for the death penalty and the 12th holding out for life imprisonment, according to Merkwether county. The supreme court held that Judge Ropp erred in declining a change of venue after the defended jurors would be in danger in Merkwether county because of the popularity of the victim. The defendant also violated this contention, and to indicate its truth the prisoner was secretly removed to Cordelle Criap county for trial. The trial was removed to Coweta county, the supreme court pointed out.

Color Bar Placed on
Employees in Stores
The various stores which are opening so rapidly in our neighborhoods are drawing their business from the people up their patronage. It is right and just that they give employment to some of our people. Many stores in our community prefer to applicants whose complexions are lightest. Since there is no preference in accepting money from unfair or bar inhibited persons simply because their skins are dark. It may be that the selection is governed by the people who attempt to tell business men whom they shall employ. At any rate it is suggested that merit and qualifications be not restricted to

Better than Soda
Instead of soda hereafter take a little "Phillips Milk of Magnesia" in water any time for indigestion or sour, add many stomach, and relief will come instinctly.
For fifty years genuino "Phillips Milk of Magnesia" has been presented by physicians because it permeates three times as much acid as milk, and contains the formation of bicarbonate of soda, leaving the stomach sweet and free from all gases.

Don't Trust Employers to Save Your Earnings
"The good she days" when we were so green in judgment that someone else had to think for us have gone too old. "The old school" are having sad experiences in trying to revive them. As witness the case of a woman of our age who was living in poverty because she refused to think for herself. Some years ago she came to Chicago from the South and got a job. As she earned her money each day she made her employers her bankers, without getting any receipt. When her health failed, she asked for her sarcastic and found that she had been working for her employer. She knew the account should be twice that amount, but she was powerless to do anything. So the matter of assessment and the matter of friends.
This is a good example of letting others think for you. The most important person can protect his money and the banks have special privileges to allow him to keep all of his own accounts. The day for giving individuals personal control over your affairs or keeping money in mattresses and under carpets has passed. Go to the banks with your money and give them a memory for a receipt, but get money orders and hold the stubs for your own protection.

BETHUNE-COOKMAN BAZAAR
IS FINANCIAL AID TO SCHOOL
Daytona Beach, Fla., March 23—The annual bazaar, one of the most unique and lucrative features of the season's program at Bethune-Cookman college, given under the direction of the ladies of the advisory board, was largely attended. From this one effort nearly $2,600 came into the coffers of the institution, to be used in the current expenses of the school. The auditorium of the college was beautifully decorated for the occasion with tables under the aisles of the Cascade-Graminate Hotel, exclusive hotels, the Tourists Club, the Silver Leaf Charity club, and the domestic science, agricultural and domestic arts departments of Bethune-Cookman college, arranged in a three formation facing the entrance.
The table of novelties and fancy work made possible by the managers and guests of the Oscelsa-Grammatian hotel took the place of the memorial table, which last year was managed in memory of the late Mrs. Surn Bates Lawrence of Bronxville, N. Y. pioneer member of the advisory board and one of the most generous friends of the college. During Mrs. Lawrence's life, it was her supreme joy to have this table at the bazaar reach a goal which would surpass even the highest hopes of her friends. When she passed on, relatives and friends maintained, for one year, a memorial table in the same spot where she had served, bringing into the school through their efforts nearly $1,000. The Oscelsa-Grammatian table this year upheld this tradition for the receipts from their sales of articles and donations amounted to nearly $1,200, representing almost a half of the total receipts to date.
The commendation of all friends of education generally and that which is given at Bethune-Cookman college particularly, goes to Mrs. C. M. Hanslow, chairman of the advisory board, a loyal and untiring worker for the school. Rullying to her example and her leadership, each member of the board, which is composed of the in-est women of both races, makes every possible sacrifice in order that the work of another woman might be maintained to the highest degree of efficiency.

Washington, March 23.—The appeal of Philip Jackson, who is under sentence to die for a criminal assault on Mrs. Daisy Welling (white) in the capital grounds Feb. 18, 1927, was argued in the court of appeals of the District of Columbia last Wednesday morning by Attorney John H. Wilson.
Justice Adolph A. Hoehling erred in refusing to grant Jackson a lunacy hearing after evidence had been submitted showing that he was the offspring of a brother and sister and is of low mentality, Attorney Wilson contended.
United States Attorney William H. Collins argued that the appointment of a lunacy jury to inquire into the mental condition of Jackson was within the discretion of the court. Jackson will be electroshocked in May if his appeal should fail.

INVESTIGATE CONDITIONS IN PA. MINES
Committee of Senate Studies Situation
Washington, D. C. March 23—Dissatisfaction was found among the race miners in the Pittsburgh and central Pennsylvania coal regions, it was reported to the senate interstate commerce committee last Saturday by a subcommittee which recently inspected that area.
The report presents an account of conditions witnessed by members of the senate subcommittee, both among the striking miners and the strike-bound miners.
According to the report, the senate subcommittee was told that Race men shot into the homes of miners at Broughton, Pa., where the committee said that it found a "reign of terror."
Arthur Hall, superintendent of term insurance No. 4, of the Pittsburgh Coal Company, said that it mined that 60 per cent of the men employed at the mine are Colored. Before the strike, which occurred on January 1, 1913, saying only 10 per cent of the men employed in the mine were Colored. At the present time the mine is employing 450 men and has an output of 10,000 tons.
In this mine the investigating committee found "the barracks the Negroes lived in in about the same community, poorly ventilated and crowded." One Negro stated that their store had been taken away from them during the middle of the winter, and it returned to Pittsburgh to have it replaced. "The committee found much dissatisfaction among the men at this mine." The terminal mine No. 8 of the Pittsburgh Terminal Coal company at Coverdale, Pa., the committee found that 30 per cent of the men employed were not white. About 700 men were employed. The committee found a number of barracks along the side of the road with a local commissary where the United Mine Workers America labor union was located. The committee inspected the company's barracks for the newly employed miners. The report describes these barracks as being "partitioned into four long and 12 feet wide, in three where were eight bunks—four double bunks on each side of the room, with a narrow passage between the bunks and each end of the room for ventilation."
These barracks were occupied by Colored miners, the committee rela-
tated, the report states, "hilly, unassailant, and some of them, your
committee learned, were infected with vexin and hardly fire the house
members," and some are employed in the mines all day where the sun's rays never penetrate and where at best the air they
are employed in the schoolhouse while
the Committee also visited the
schoolhouse at Houghton, Pa. Race
strikebreakers are alleged to have
shot into the schoolhouse while
J. M. McCrary, a representative of
The Daily News of New York City,
testified before the investigat-
ing schoolhouse "followed the arrest by
Squire J. M. O'Tourke, about two
house previous to that, of a Colored
strikebreaker, and another at the time
of the confession of the shooting the night before into
some windows of barracks and stores
below here with a shotgun and also
called Smith & Wesson wolves.
"This Colored man," Mr. McCrystal stated, "was picked up at a local railroad station while waiting to get on a train in which he said that the coal and iron police said they would give him and his buddy, a man named Thomas Worrell, $25 a piece to shoot into the barracks windows," Mr. McCrystal said. The wives of two miners, Mrs. Karpy and Mrs. Holmack, at Bruecton, Pa., where the investigating committee inquired into the shooting, said the man who did the shooting there were not white.
Senator Gooding, Republican of Ohio, was chairman of the subcommittee investigating the fields. Other members of the subcommittee rendering the report were Senators Pine, Republican of Oklahoma; Wheeler, Democrat of Montana; Varguer, Democrat of New York; and Macleish, Republican of Rhode Island

POISON BLOOD
H. H. Von Schlick, herb specialist and manufacturer of the famous Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea, tells people that almost all diseases are caused by impure, poisoned blood. When the stomach is sick you feel miserable, you are constipated and the poisons go into the blood. When the liver refuses to work the poisons go into the blood; when the kidneys are weak and out of order more poison goes into the blood and the result is that your body is sick all over.
For many years I have been telling people sick with disease caused by poisoned blood, that my Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea gives relief to those who suffer from stomach, liver, kidney and blood troubles.
I say to every man and woman that you should follow us to my Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea—millions of people will use no other medicine—they know that the roots, bark, leaves, herbs, plants and flowers are pure and help to make them well
Go to your druggist today. Tell him you want Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea, because he will know it is simple medicine for the sick. It costs only a few cents. Doctors and druggists everywhere recommend my Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea, because it is designed for a low dose to kill a cold. Don't go down with "Flu," Gripe or Pneumonia. Kill your cold with a hot dose of Bulgarian Herb (Blood) Tea. Just use it. Bulgarian Herb Tea will send it either by mail postpaid, one large family box for $10, or by mail C. O.

Plantation Cabaret Is Dark Again
Federal Judge Walter C. Lindley ordered the Plantation cafe, 338 E. 35th St., owned by Joe Glaser, closed for one year on charges performed by dry agents that the prohibition law was being violated.
Judge Lindley based his decision upon the testimony of government men that ginger ale "set-ups" were much in evidence in the Plantation when the agents went there seeking to obtain upon which the case could be closed.
Drinking Permitted
"Open drinking was permitted in the cafe," they said. "We carried liquor in wine here with it, and sold liquor also at $1.50 a bottle and cracked ice. Then drank our liquor freely without molestation," the agents testified. "We were the fire of Judge Landley, who declared the wanted no such evidence; that the agents themselves violated the law by taking and drinking liquor in the cafe. Such violations were held their assertion that the management made no protest against open drinking there." For the Plantation argued that if only "set-ups" were considered violations that every restaurant and cafe in Chicago should be closed. The Judge agreed with the plaintiff, and after the law, if there is going to be any relief the law must be amended or modified. I have sworn to uphold the American Constitution. I can do anything under the law but sign this order."
U. S. Agents Jubilant
The government men, jubilant over another victory, rushed to the South Carolina courthouse to seek the attorneys. Citizens in other sections of Chicago are awaiting a similar fate when testimony against them is heard by Judge L. Almhess. The former of the Plantation, is under a 10-year sentence on a criminal assault charge preferred by a 14-year-old girl. He is free on bail. He was arrested and tried in the municipal court on a similar charge preferred by a 16-year-old girl, but the court found the evidence insufficient to hold him to the grand jury.

TAKE ACTION AGAINST COPS FOR KILLING
Man Fatally Wounded in R. R. Station
Contesville, Pa., March 23.—Formal action will be taken against two white policemen, Charles Kernan and Robert Home, who are accused of fatally shooting Edward Null, 37 years old, of Texas, last week, it was announced.
Early last Monday morning Null was waiting in the Pennsylvania railroad station. A girl telephone operator heard a queer noise and phoned the police. On reaching the station the police found only Null.
Without making an explanation, it alleged, the officers rushed up to Null and attempted to seize him. To defend himself Null drew out a knife.
Refusing to obey the command, "Come on with us," Null was shot five times by the officers. He was wounded and then put into a pit where he died several hours later. In a signed statement he said that he had no intention of robbing the station and was merely waiting until daybreak to find a lodging place.
District Attorney John N. Guss reported that he decided to take action against the officers following a court decision that he insisted he said that it had not been settled whether or not a murder or man-slaughter charge will be preferred. The officers, it is thought, will waive the formality of a hearing to permit the case to be taken to court. He also said that district attorney's decision he announced he would "stand back of the two officers to the limit." He de-identified the defender Walter E. Greenwood would represent the two police officers.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
PASTOR ONLY FIT TO SING BASS IN CHOIR
Atlanta Congregation Asks Removal
Atlanta, GA, March 23—Court proceedings to oust Rev. W. M. Jones as pastor of the Mt. Vernon Baptist church have been instituted against him by a faction of the congregation which, asserts that Rev. Jones "is fit only to dance the Black Bottom and sing bass in the choir."
An injunction petition was filed in the Fulton superior court Monday to enjoin Rev. Jones from acting further as pastor of Mt. Vernon church. Included as codefendants with the minister in the bill are five deacons of the church and J. M. George, marshal, and six deacons in a record with their plague grinder. The record restraining the municipal court from hearing further causes in the controversy, stopping the pastor and his ship" and restraining the municipal court marshal from making any changes in the church property. A hearing of the suit is set for
Attaches Church Organ
The petitioners are also asking the dismissal of a previous court order obtained by Rev. Jones enlisting him to carry out the duties against the pastor assures that Rev. Jones was not chosen according to the rulistic ordinances and is actuated by motives conceived in rebellion to constituted authority. The petition also states; "This controversy originated through the activities of one who travels under the guise of a pastor—to wit, one who has his total unfitness to enslave himself with the cloth of the clergy. "It is well nigh necessary to hold both Jones when the collection is held and Jones when the collection maintains his office by virtue of five alleged deacons, his devoted lieutenants, rather than the constituted church officers," the complainants as
Rev. Jones, whom they characterize as a "trouble maker who studies only the weakest people," has known throughout the Baptist denomination in the South. He has been a leader for the past 20 years. He is one of the South's most popular ministers.
Learning Languages
Many society matrons are no doubt bored with the eternal serving of "ideal" classes, but they must habit of passing on gossip at their weekly club sessions. It is gratifying to learn that a number of them have acquired the language and thus make profit and enlarge mix. French and Spanish are the preferred courses, since the French is so popular. It will certainly be no asset to these young women to be able to converse intelligently about the world, friends or some one's business.

Take Legal Matters to
So many cases of unwise investments with a consequent loss of the family's funds have come to attention. It is important to private. It is worth the money you pay for first-class legal advice in the matter of buying, selling, or any legal service. It is important to a lawyer's fee that you have gained anything. On the contrary, many times you are thrice the loser. There is nothing else that matters. And one way that is not safe is to trust to friendship or place confidence in some unauthorized agent. Do not take the word of your friends as a guarantee of your involvement. Find out a reliable lawyer, then take your business sto him. His record can always be consulted and your business will stand. Get receipts at all times, and keep up with your affairs.

Rodhan Wannamaker, whose death last week was mourned throughout the nation, embarked himself to the convention of the National Association of Negro Musicians when they held their annual meeting in 1926. The fine spirit of co-operation which he exhibited with all of his colleagues, and the stance when, upon attending the reception of the Robert Curtis Ogden association, sponsored by Mr. Wannamaker, he gave aATIVE to welcome us, but took two hours of his valuable time to personally be present and meet the nationals to attend a short address of welcome.
The recital of Miss Nannie Mae Stryath, pianist of the faculty of the Coleridge-Taylor School of Music, and Miss Martha Stryath's striking personal appearance was the subject of much comment and her grace in acknowledging the audience's apprehension. Miss Stryath's striking audience was one of musicians who could appreciate what Miss Stryath had to offer and appreciate the steady advance which she is making in her music. Her splendidly chosen program referred to in this column was rendered with keen musical appreciation and sincerity, and the broad scope of her performances continues to be a student of her art and therefore always has especially meritorious numbers to present to her audience.

Doctor Found What Is Best for Thin, Constipated People
As a family doctor at Monticello, Illinois, the whole human body, not any small part of it, was Dr. Caldwell's practice. More than half his "callas" were on women, children and babies. They are the ones most often sick. But their illnesses were usually headaches, biliosiness—and all of them required first a thorough evacuation. They were constipated. In the course of his 47 years' practice (the Medical College back in 1875), he found a good deal of success in such cases with a prescription of his own containing simple inactive herbs with the formula in the manufacture of a medicine to be known as Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, and in that year his prescription was first placed on the medicine. The preparation immediately had as great a success in the drug stores as it previously had in his private practice, and it is using it. Mothers are giving it to their children who were given it by their mothers. Every second of the working day someone somewhere is using it. Millions of bottles of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin are being used a year.
His great success is based on merit, on repeated buying, on one satisfied user telling another. There are thousands of customers of the company without a back of Dr. Caldwell's Syrup Pepsin, and we have grateful people telling us that it

"Who is She?"
You simply can't keep people from wanting to know who you are when you're as sparklingly fresh and crisply beautiful as your New Yorker. Gorgeate York is now a New Yorker lives at 152 Carroll Street, Brooklyn. Everyone admires her lovely figure, and her marvelously clear, rossetined complexion; but women marvel at the softness and huster of her hair.
"I am so busy that I have almost no time to give to my hair," says Miss Violet. "I and I really don't know how to do it. I learned how so many of my girl friends here in New York are taking care of theirs.
"We so simple. All you do is put a hairbrush on on brush each time you use. This wonderful preparation keeps my hair so soft and lustrous that many friends I have commented on it. It makes my scalp feel just grand and all dandruff infiltrations. It keeps my hair so clean that I don't have to shampoo nearly so often as I used to."
Danderline isn't oily and doesn't show. It makes hair easy to dress with a lightweight brush and the 252 bottles. Lovely hair and healthy scalp for a few cents.
SOCIETY
With Lord's mantle of rest around the next few weeks, social activities will be small and informal but few exceptions. These days of rest, however, are as a path of quiet leading to a vista ahead, wherein are many large and brilliant affairs, among which will be the charity ball and the town's amateur minstrels. A beautiful entertainment of the week though was the first annual dance of the La Lace Ladies Five Hundred club given at the Alvin Dansant Wednesday evening. The Invitations called out a

Dear Princess: I have been reading in the column, in this book, and asking you how much you are worth-ful. Many folks have told me not only thought they were bittering me, but only thought they were a fellow who was very good looking and I felt for him, and as a result, I was now a Princess. Now Princess, when he seemed we me Princess, when he told me that he not be bittering my condition, but Princess, he is, because I was going with his sister. He is going with a girl now who is conjoined Oh, Princess, I have seen so highly respected, and now to be disgraced in my publicity, and it will cause much if I have him arrested which is the proper publicity and it will cause much if I have him arrested which is the proper publicity and it will cause much if I have my parents who are not aware of my condition. If my mother finds it so hard to break her heart, Princess, please.
It is strange, but true, that most men grow cold after they have acquired what they crave. It is very likely that men will be so tired of the woman who has gone through fire and brimstone for him. When women love, they seem to lose all sense of mind and feeling unenviyable deluge of affection—without reason. It is a part of man's real mind—to easily attracted to him, the more he is likely to be enough to prize that to many cooks spoil the both, and gauge themselves according to the point of view that they come to give them to have men whose sole condition is to have a woman bead of a man's own child. If you are in the world, who would play the text, but refuse to do so to the music. The man who does so is want to be a father should keep the man's life in his own place. There is no greater position than the man who can be placed in that method of life. It is the most out of work of weekday is not illegitimate. It is born just the same as all other children. The parents of the so-called ill-healthful will be the same as the cause they have, transgressed the laws. If a man must be forced to marry a woman who knows her baby is his, he will not be so far from being a carer. His name is: Your condition cannot be helped, now, so you along and go to nature. There are hundreds of thousands of men and men of the world who were born from parents that never know what a marriage's life is. I am very many things that are far more lifesail of than being born out of bedlock.
Dear Princess: I have kept up with your column for some time, and I find it interesting in value, that when the best of parents would give (with all due respect to me) a mechanic, I work every day and my only vice is smoking. I take my money from a woman about five years ago, after she had disgraced her first husband. She took him. About two years ago she went home. While at home she started going to a book where she was writing her life story and in it she told of being unmarried and she said she was not unmarried until she got my telegram, stating that she asked she could stay forever. Princess, a wagram under these untruths if she was not so inclined? She has caused this man to put his other operative, but when to do right Princess, I best I respent what I wish, but under the same thing over and over. What presents, kisses and other social advances to bore here, yet she what to do—Worried Man. When a woman begins to tread of a you describe, there is no cure for it.

make it being so very susceptible to changes in mind. If your wife found enough fault with her former husband to leave him, then she should be through with him. I dare say he is much different now to what he was with him, she getting better living from you than she can from him and that is why she stays with you. He brings her a thrill and it seems that few home these days survive without some sort of occasional thrill. The time and age apparently depend. If I cannot see how you can endure her, though, after how you'd actively that she is off color. Her dairy and her own confessions condemn her very often a husband can tolerate his wife for a long time, on suspicion. A thief, is only a thief, they say—when he is proven one, see no reason for a contraindication with the affectionate and attentive, you would try to overlook her mistakes because none are perfect, but when she repulses you on every kind, she is worthless to you. Love goes blind in some instances, but when it recovers its sight—well, it's too bad. When you begin to take up the self-awareness of the slown side is making out, keeping her.
Dear Princess, Please tell me how to announce my sisters' engagement to my brother, as she is strictly religious—Babe. An engagement can be announced formally or informally. If, through the papers, it would be thus, "Mr. and Mrs. Brown," it would be thus, "Mr. and Mrs. Brown," it would be thus, "Mr. and Mrs. Brown," it is announced at a gathering of friends, the lady and her sister of friends, the father and his sister of friends, the brother-in-law to the father-in-law presents the husband-to-be. Very often engagements are announced by cards and gentlemen send to their friends.
QUART OF WATER CLEANS KIDNEYS
Take a Little Salts If Your Back Hurts, or Bladder Is Troubling You
No man or woman can make a mistake by flushing the kidneys occasionally, says a well-known author who creates acids, which exile the kidneys. They become overworked from the strain, yet sluggish and fail to cleanse the pores from the blood. Then we need sick Thrombism, headaches, liver trouble, nervousness, dizziness, sleeplessness and urinary disorders often come to mind.
The moment you feel a dull ache in the kidneys, or you back hurts, you need to fill up of sediment, irregular of passage or attended by a sensation of saddling, begin drinking a quart of water every day, also see about four days of dullness in the mary; take a tablespoonful in a glass of water before breakfast, and in a few days your kidneys may act like a gland of grapes and lemon juice, combined with lithia, and has been used for years to flush and stimulate the kidneys of grapes and lemon acids in the system, so they no longer cause irritation, thus often relieving bladder weakness, and expensive; makes a delightful offerervessible Lithia-water drink which everyone should take now and then to help keep the kidneys clean and active and the blood flowing properly, holding serious kidney complications.
Meritorious Acts Remain Unknown for Want of Publicity
To conform with our promise to make the woman's page of the Chicago December the greatest ever, we began in the first issue of the new year to tell you of the accomplishment of some accomplishments. The issue will be given for an account of some achievement but our readers must date for the publication of any article and only those will be published and not advertised.
Asking Co-operation
Many things of an unusually complicated combination of women and girls of the face have been called to the attention of our readers and are being always in mind to please our readers and also give publicity to Mrs. Nettie George Speedy is sending her to your co-operation in helping her to be one of the greatest in the news—she is asking you to meet her half way. When you learn of anything that will place her in the unusual class, please send Mrs. Speedy the information upon our readers about the wonder that is being made by our committed.
Aims for Success
It may often be an incentive for a young person to struggle unaccentedly to meet the eyes of the world are upon her, that the same eyes are watching every moment of her life, offered for her intimate success. It is not belittling to declare that each and every individual wants a little praise for our efforts or educator in any field, not to apply to individual work alone, but sometimes classes and clubs of women are linked to their mentorship nature to lend their very fact of the support and the very being paramount in the mind of an individual who makes her succeed in suite of herself.
Look for the Girl
Women and girls are doing something everywhere. Something unusual, too. You may know about it, so why not let others know. If a young girl graduates from high school at the age of 14, that is something unusual. If a woman or girl competes in any line of endeavor and carries away the "idle ridden," the accomplishment is worthy of publicity. Search your home, your neighborhood, your school, your church, in fact, search your own environment and bring to light the doings of your own sex and send them with pictures whenever possible to Mrs. Nettie George Speedy, care of The Chicago Defender and help to make the woman's page the encyclopedia of your sex.
It will cost you nothing. These articles will be published free. Please send a picture of the woman, girl or group whenever possible. We will do what is being accomplished for the women and girls of our own face.

Suggestions
Don't try on gloves on the first time when in a hurry. Even if you do not wear gloves, never fit so well as when they are carefully put on, stretching the kid gently to the hand if this is done the first time, all other times will be easy.
Clotheshose in the fingers of the wet wooden gloves will prevent their shrinking in the drying process.
It has been scientifically proved that water impairs the heat, while a mat white or light paint causes no impairment to the heat. Rubber gloves impair the heat and the white paint and the white radiators are decidedly attractive in a modern home.
Borax water will remove brown stains from scorched or burned dishes. Let them stand in the solution for a day and then wash with soap and water.
Rubbers will not slip off the heels if a rubber pad is placed around the inside top of each rubber.
HAD ASTHMA

There is good news for asthma and bronchial sufferers in a letter written by Mrs. W. S. Ogwim, Heacom, Tenn.
She says:
In 1914, it developed into chronic asthma, more than temporary relief, and was gradually growing weaker all the time. She started taking Nacer, and soon noticed a decided change. In all, I took four months to get it entirely normal. My asthma is entirely gone. I have taken no medicine for 2 months now, and I have been taking Nacer. If you sneeze, you sneeze. If you cough, you cough. If these diseases, in a booklet which will be sent free by Nacer Medicine, they will also send you the letters of people whose trouble disappears. But they will also send you the letters of people whose trouble disappears. No matter how serious your case seems, write for this free information, and strength.

TO RELIEVE
STOMACH
DILATION
TO
Dilation of the stomach usually arises because excess stomach acid causes food to ferment and form sour gases which are responsible for those gasses causing swelling and fullness, often very painful.
To avoid and relieve stomach dilation take a tablet of "Pape's Diapenjsin" after meals or when pain is felt. Pape's diapenjsin neutralizes acidity and helps to prevent heartburn and fatigue, and insures healthy, painless digestion.
Druggists everywhere sell "Pape's Diapenjsin" at 60 cents a package—from digestive pain and stomach troubles, is it? Better set your package of "Pape's Diapenjsin" today.

LINWOOD'S LETTER
Memphis, Tenn.—The "Sweethearts of America," as they are called by the critics of Dayton, opened at the Palace theater Monday. March 12, and the manager is wondering where the twinkling of the stars and the twinkling out in a park on a moonlight night emptying one's heart to his sweetheart. This theater has been rightly named. Backstage is a regular palace for performers—hot and cold water in every dressing room. The palace is filled of bath while at the theater, there's the shower waiting for you.
When the Dunbar theater, Columbus, Ohio, was opened and using T. Q. B. A. attractions the gang had to give as many as three bumps to the crowd, the crowd that turned out to see the famous gang in action; but since the opening of the Pythian theater we have been giving only one ramble. But on account of not being able to accommodate our last engagement there, Mr. Eager arranged to have two this time. The first was on Friday and the second on Saturday. A large crowd attended the Friday night event as usual, several hundred people were turned away Saturday night.
The writer enjoyed reading Miss Martina's letter in the March 10 issue of the W. G. N. I have never seen or met the lady, but read her letter, similar to one the writer was preparing for the March 17 issue of the W. G. W. You will find that the majority of performers have no respect for one another. They will say anything anywhere. The men forget that they would need like to have the same respect to have of the families, and the girls forget that if they do not respect themselves no one will
The gang were entertained by the Bills of Columbus, Ohio, during their engagement there. Alma Travis's sister paid her a visit in Columbus. The writer will close with the Whitman Sisters company Sunday, March 15, and to the Whitmans and the Whitmans, I will be particularly enjoyed the two years and seven months that I have been drummer and reporter for this well-known company. I will also say that they have not missed a week in paying me or any other member of the company during that time. At present the Whitmans are carrying 32 people and have many applications for their position, so I am ready before it starts over the Bahamian & Katz circuit, which will be in about two weeks from the closing of the Indianapolis engagement. Of those who are lucky enough to have their applications accepted, all that will be asked of you is talent, reliability, personality, efficiency, and, above all, respect. As this is a family of sisters and brothers, the writer will always have a good word to say for the Whitmans.
All mail for your truly will be received at 615 St. Peter St., Richmond, Va.

THE MUSICAL BUNCH BY DAVE PEYTON
THE MUSICAL BUNCH BY DAVE PEYTON
Things in General
of music in the modern theaters of today.
"Our Music"
"Our music." Can we say that any more? In answer I say "no" with quotations on either side of it. The music is beautiful. We criticized our orchestras and musical shows, saying that they were too much like white orchestras or white shows. What we are up against is the fact that our music, our rythm, our humor, has been piloted by the races, and they are doing our stuff which was ours exclusively once.
Then the critics say we are immitating the Nordics when we are only doing our own stuff. Heywood Brom, a New York correspondent, says that "the two chief elements in American music shows today were Negro in their derivation, they are the music and the dancing." This same statement shows our chests as well. Some time ago I wrote in this column about our players giving their stuff away to the Nordic musicians, but I was just a little too late in giving the warning as the brothers had it and were beating us doing it. We should feel ashamed of ourselves and should take the present situation as a warning. If any of us create anything new and good, it ample protection and gold, we should get the ability and creative powers of invention, do not show him your stuff.
Fess Williams, the jazz wizard from New York and now the stage master of ceremonies at the Regal theater, belLOWed out with all that his lungs could power "hello, gang." It was Saturday night at the Savoy Hotel, one of the most pleasing spots on the board. It was a night set aside for the jazz maestro and the gang was there, too—some 3,000 or more and they really gave Fess a rousing welcome. This was the first close-up the bunch in Chi has had of the clever Little jazz band leader. They swarmed around him, they almost beamed around him. They welcomed a welcome when this writer entertained him last May on the South side.
Tears came to my eyes at the Savoy last week when I witnessed such an ovation extended to Mr. Williams. As a rule, our folks do not reverence those of us who are ambitious and trying to mount the ladder of fame, instead they try to hold you back. They make alighting remarks about those who are successful and for no other reason than "realize the welcome demonstration to Pess and his Jazz Joy Boys.
Plantation Closed
The musicians in Chicago lose another prominent job. The Plantation cafe has been closed for one year by the Savoy. The plantations. A 10-piece band loses its job but it is a good band and will find work.
This writer was the contractor for the Plantation cafe's first band, then came along the popular King Joe Oliver with his red hot New Orleans Syncopators. The place was closed once or twice and ever since, the last Joe Glazer two bands have seen service in the place—Sammy Stewart and Lawrence Harrison with their orchestras.
Mother Dies
Albert Washington, popular Chicago musician, lost his mother last week and the musical bunch in the town are symphizing with the well-known saxophonist. Mrs. S. E. Washington died Friday, March 9, at her home, 6727 Loomis Blvd.
Brunswick Artist
Margaret Whitme, an exclusive Brunswick recording artist, wants the musical and show gang to know that things are well with herself. Mail will reach her at 4727 Michigan Ave. Chicago, Illinois. The popular vocals is "Train! No Cow in Texas."
Opportunities Orchestra
Six of the former members of Sammy Stewart's orchestra, who were recently let out of the Willard theater when the management of that house cut Stewart's orchestra to six pieces, have organized a musical unit under the leadership of Clarence Moore. The boys are all sharp and no doubt will make good. Anyway, this writer congratulates them and they will have success. Good business management, coupled with ability to deliver the goods, will win in the long run.
Bad Payers
Attention has been called to this writer about the bad boys of melody, who purchase musical instruments on the extended payment plan and who hire town and nationers who stay right here, working all the time and will not pay their bills.
The band instrument houses are about ready to deny credit to our musicians for the above reason. One credit manager stated to this writer that he was about to use his job to pay the musicians who have failed to keep their promises to pay their bills. Bunch, if this is true, you who owe these bills are simply going to get the whole Race in wrong. This one Chicago firm probably belongs to the National Credit association and they are not going to pay the country to deny credit, to our musicians. Please pay up your bills if you are working and let us regain the confidence of these music houses. Those of you who slip on them will be found, brought back and prosecuted. You make your living playing music and you should at least pay for

The Symphony Orchestra
Good music has its followers just the same as the popular variety kind. The latter class is the most popular because there are more of the masses who understand the America it has been fed to the masses more than the standard music, hence its unlimited popularity, but at the same time the symphony still lives and is cherished by the classic music lovers and it still brings appreciative applause whenever rendered.
Dave Pevton
PETER B. BURGESS
Most of the symphony scores tell a story. They tell a story of either remorse, oppression or jubilancy. It is interesting to understand these artistic musical themes expressing some emotion. The followers of the symphony as a rule know that they are profoundly interested. Today in the largest cities of America the symphony orchestra is a big draw. Exorbitant prices are paid to hear their performance. They are truly distinctive factors in the world of music. They are supported today by all classics. The movie theater complements elite ten years ago established as a part of their programs the overture. They employed from 15 to 100 players, musicians taken from the large symphony orchestra made up the personal as the jazz musicians were not adaptable to the symphony scores. Furthermore, it requires an understanding of the class of music. Occasionally you find musicians who are quite versatile in canyly playing both classes of music, jazz and symphonic. Among our Race group of musicians versatility is the watchword. We have outclassed the Nardile musicians in this respect. We are also limited and in order to keep the wolf away from the door we study more in order to hold our jobs.
Theater Symphony
In New York, Chicago and other large cities versatility is required of the orchestra nowadays. They have to do symphonic work in the pit and the audience a popular stage jazz band. This quality makes the musician in demand and increases their commercial value. These kind of musicians are in big demand today in the theater. The theater symphony orchestra is required to handle the hardest of standard themes in musically chilly seasion scenes in the theater. The best timemusic is caught wanting at times, so difficult are the scores. After this trying ordeal is over, the orchestra almost immediately doubles into an entire new atmosphere and is required to jazz 'em up. Years ago this was not the case, but now it is about the necessity of having an orchestra that can handle both classes

STAGE
IN OLD KAYSEE
By CHARLES O'NEAL
Kansas City, Mo.—It was a snappy show that opened at the Lincoln Monday under the title of "Clara Smith's Musical Revue." This entertainment is a 'birlwind dancing with a dahlia' and stepping exhibited by the principal chorus, and several broadly funny comedy scenes to provide ample mirth. The name, "Clara Smith," seems to have a magical effect on Kansas City theatrical fans, and the crowds began pouring into the lobby as they filled the 1,365 seats before the raising of the first curtain.
Prominent in the company are Alice Ramsey, whose numbers were well received; Willie Glover and Sonny Mitchell, the comedians of droll personality; Ruth Trent, a clever singer and dancer; Ernest Robinson, who handled the straight part exceedingly well, and hast, but not without humor, opinion, one of the best blues singers on the stage. Beside her singing Clara has a snappy audience that keeps the audience laughing the entire time she is on the stage. It is a nice little company of entertainers who do their work well and deserve the applause that they receive.

To those who love to question and criticize, we would offer these for your consideration: How many of you attended the Florence Mills Theatrical association meeting on Jan. 21 at the Lafayette theater? Answer. How many of you attended the meeting at the Democratic club on Feb. 1? Answer—Just 33. How many of you read the weekly news items of our activities in the Race weeklies? Answer—It seems but few. How many of you visit the office? Answer—I don't know what you term working with and for your organization? Answer—Not much. When inclined to see the faults of others, look first to yourself and ask, "What have I done to help?" It takes thousands to put over a home. Remember, friends, or family, I say, when you open up that shocker the knocker, the fault-finder will be the first to ask a favor.
Do you want a theatrical home? I kind of think the sidewalk in front of it is a bit too wet when it rains, snowes or a fella gets sick Honeest now, how about it?

Mobile, Ala.—Last week found the "Golden Brown Steppers" at our theater. Yours very truly did not get a chance to review the show, but all say the show did not live up to the standard. They show was not of the style called "class." Managers who fail to bring us No.1 shows need not be surprised to read in print of show and of show they bring. Last week was a week in dancecland for Sam Morgan and his New Orleans Jazz Hounds wearing out real dance music at Gomez auditorium.
The roster includes Sam Morgan, cornet and leader; Insiah Morgan, second cornet; Andrew Morgan, clarinet and saxophone; Earl Fushay, alto; Johnnie Dave; tenor bano; Jim Brown; Brombone; Sidney Brown, baseb. O. G. G. Mianni piano, and Roy Edwards, drums. This is too tight for words. These boys have a two-year contract with the Columbia Record company and up to the present time they have released the following dance numbers: Step On the Gas, "Down By the River Side," Mobile Stomp; and "Everybody Talks About Sammie." Yours truly just received a letter from his old pal, Charlie Segar, who is now amathfrak{a}tnetist with the Jamestown Ramblers at Minneapolis, and he claims they are playing at a leading Oxfay hotel in the above hurg. Well, luck to you, Charlie. Mail will reach him at 533 Aldrick St., Minneapolis, Minn. Pop Stewart, I did not think you could always from the big top this season. Pop Stewart, we have the band this season on the John Robles son clrcus. Kate Irving and Fats Roberts will be on the Millers brothers' Plant show this season. Edna and Kid Talley, will you both be on A. G. Allen's minstrels this season? Well troupers and performers, yours only will not be on the road this season. I wish you all good luck. Gladly Brown and Johnnie Johnson, get in touch with Johnnie Johnson.
This week finds Bowman's "Cotton Blossoms" at our theater, playing to good crowds nightly. Yours truly oined Gulf City lodge No. 244, I. B. P. O. E. of W. last Tuesday night. Mary Holley, how is everything in Alex—Vola Shelton, why don't you write? Vola Shelton is so solene here weekly at the Art Barhoussai Davis Ave. Best regards to all and out of the profession and Uncle-Sam can locate me at the above theater, this burg, all summer.

Do you like your job, or is it just one of those jobs you are holding until
you are ready to leave? Do you work so poorly in the job that it will destroy many opportunities for a better life?
Salem T Whitney to the day, sixty seconds to the minute and sixty minutes to the hour. You can't make more or less out of it. It is up to you how you dispose of this precious allotment of time.
Be the master of your job and not a slave. While on the job, give it all you have. When off the job, forget it and relax. Don't make the mistake that everybody you meet is as intensely interested in your job as yourself. Don't make the mistake of your endeavors. Remember, these others you meet may have jobs that they appreciate as highly as you value your own.
If you can't get a kick out of your job, get another one that will furnish the kick—the kick is the thing that counts—but don't quit any job, no matter how mean it is, until you have a better one, and make sure that it is better. What is the use of working hard at something you don't like and getting what you don't want. Money does not wholly compensate one for working at something one does not like.
Don't allow enthusiasm for your job to ride you. Approach it with intelligent deliberation. Too much enthusiasm at the start may lead one to become frustrated, and it is likely to be followed by discouragement and then the job leaves a taste in your mind like the "morning after." Nothing succeeds like success, also nothing is quite so discouraging as failure. Guard your job against failure with every intelligent, common sense precaution that you can employ.
Don't count a mistake a failure. You have never failed until you acknowledge you are licked. Once you have devoted yourself to your job, see it through no matter how tedious or distasteful it may prove to be. The self-confidence will more than compensate you for the tedium of the labor.
Criticism is constructive, but the majority of our critics are only tearing down when they think they are criticizing. Instead of being critics they become scoliosis. The world is full of this class of self-styled critics. Everything so idiomatic is wrong. Our critics are not biased, who presumes to know the source and cause of all the evils with humanity is affected but never offer a practical anthelmintic.
Dear Chappie Gavinner: I wish you to know how very much I appreciate the readiness with which you rushed to my assistance in the verbal combat waged between one Theoplanus Lewis and yours truly, and the appreciation is intensified by the fact that you did not wait for me to broadcast an $^8$ but that think what your tenacity has brought upon you. You are aware that you have been so indiscreet. How could you have been so indiscreet. You have a sheep-skin diploma that you wear over your chest as protection against the onslaughts of King Winter, that diploma was given you as a token of certain educational requisites you were supposed to possess. Is it possible that these did not include a knowledge of the voracious marine mammal known as the whale?
Dear Chappie, know you that the sulphur bottom, gray whale has been known to reach the enormous length of $91 feet$ and to weigh 140 tons? Know you that the whale is so large that your presumption soars so high that you have the audacity to against a school of these monsters. An average specimen weighs about 60 tons and is worth about $500$. Rather cheap after all, are they not, Chappie?
Whales are characterized by the very loose attachment of their ribs to their backbone, so that the chest can be greatly expanded to take in a large supply of air. Our journalistic whales could not have thought of a more efficient way to breathe between the sulphur and the journalistic whales is in the temperature of the supply of air they take in. Our journalistic whales are inflated with hot air.
Although, Chapple old boy, we may be mimmons cavorting around in a big pool, as they say, I think they have greatly magnified our dangers. We know they have a sword fish in a minnow when compared with a whale, yet a sword fish can kill a whale that ever spouted. The greatest danger we could court would be an attempt to feed one of these mammals with bottomless stomachs.
We know too that all journalists are not whales, neither do they wish to be known as whales. We are alluding only to the whales who threatened us for daring to disagree with their opinions upon certain matters pertaining to the Negro stage. We know, too, that everything that thinks it is wrong with the Negro stage has to hold itself a whale. And it is just possible that while we think we are holding verbal combat with a whale we may be playing hide and seek with "Anguils in herba." And beware, whales, that when you grab us for minnows, you do not find "Anguillum cauda tenes," you hold an eel by the tail.
Flournoy Miller, the business manager of the celebrated team of Miller and Anguils outstanding us, menaged us the theatrical business. He is a credit to Beard and to Prof. Lilie Irvin C. he is a product of Fisk university. Flournoy has a large number of friends and an active number of enquiries. He is what some people term brutally frank in his opinions about persons and subjects. Frank people are brutally frank, but appreciated. They never leave one in doubt as to where they stand.
Although brothers in the fullest sense of the word, Irvin and Flournoy often disagree. It is entertaining, enlightening and amusing to tune in on one of their many arguments. Irvin has cut an indelible niche in Race show movies and has very definite ideas and opinions upon the subject. Flournoy, through manager in our other branch, the business child, is as intensely interested in the progress and development of the Race stage as Irvin. He turned down several offers for vaudeville that meant bigger money to put out another big show and give employment to 60 or more of our boys and girls.
Flournoy holds that we will never be free to give a true expression of Race art in our theaters until these theaters are controlled by Race men. He bears the white managers of our theaters no ill-will, but declares that they are only in it for the money, that making the Race stage a cultural influence is beside the question to them. Flournoy has a right to his opinion, and the white managers are so closely associated with the white managers in the matter of accumulating the dollars that it is impossible to differentiate between them.
The managers of Race theaters, says Flournoy, do not exercise discretion and good judgment in the selection of their employees. Doormen and ushers are not the only managers in the business language, the customer is always right. There should never be an argument between the customer and the doorman, the ticket seller or the ushers. Like draws like. The same thing applies back stage. A bunch of roughhouses employed as stage hand can upset the morale of the best disciplined company. The manager has no right to expect a first-class stage-hand to help put the show over.

Coy Herndon paper to give space to a Jace attraction was quite much in amass as shows of this kind depend on lithographing the town, or what we call "billing," but seemingly forget the newspapers or give them little or no advertising at all. Lonnie Fisher, the producer of this season's show, wrote that the show twice in one season. He did justice to himself. The limberger cheese bit, done by two comedians, where one uses powder and the other slips the cheese in the other's pocket. The show's "Garage Can" bit brought many laughs. One of the high lights of the new show is a very pretty and unique posting and toe dancing number featuring Bette Martina, while successes and Beylyn White, in new numbers can always take care of themselves.
The comedy is handled by the Big Three, Ford Wiggs, Manzie Campbell and Lonnie Fisher. Sam Gray and Frank Smedley, both bass singers, are features. The Woodens, in their great print, The opening chorus is beautifully staged. The costumes are all new, likewise is the scenery.
Fount Woods and Band
When orders were issued for a new show Fount Wood went to work on his band, not only to keep it up on the standard, but to surpass it. 16 musicians at his command, every march, popular melody, overture and selections were changed. Band rehearsals were held daily for the past two weeks. 16 bands, the band and a treat to music lovers that hear it.
New Venture
The Florida Blossoms have motorized the minstrels, discarded their Pullman car, purchased nine new special trucks, and built a new car. There are a few circuses at present traveling through the country on trucks, seeming with little trouble. Of course, the Pullman motor proposition. It was a failure, but no doubt there lies a reason. The Blossoms have left no stone unturned to achieve a success. The all-steel Pullman car, purchased from the Rosco and Hockwald Georgia Minstrels, I understand, has been reconstructed. The Pullman car has sparked Circus. However, the old "No. 5" car, the one Silas Green discarded for the specially constructed steel Pullman car, sold last week to the Sparkes circus.
Collier Burned
Charles Collier was burned about the hands and face while boiling a tub of gasoline and wax used in the preparation of paraffin. Quick work on the part of one of the boys in removing his coat saved him from burns. He was taken to a serious hospital. He is at present on the job in Brunswick.
Bv-Bv. Brunswick
We all hated to leave the Brunswick people, who are the most hospitable bunch I've ever met. Dr. and Mrs. Wright, the veteran mail carrier, and Mrs. Wright, the Johnson Rooks, Mrs. Ada Booker and yours truly at lunch, in their beautiful home. Understaff Harris entertained William Bryan and his wife the entire two weeks before the party for Bettie Martina and Beaula Brown. In fact, every member of the company was royally entertained. Mall will reach the Silas Green show Columbus, April 20th, Spring 20th, Eufaula, Ala., 214; Guthbert, Ga., 22d, and Dawson, Ga., 24th.
IDA ANDERSON IN STOCK
Ida Anderson, dramatic favorite, is heading a company at the Lincoln theater. She was accorded a big ovation on Monday at the opening performance of her new show, *Rene Chenault* and will remain indefinitely. Mrs. Anderson and Chenault will be remembered as favorites of the Lafayette stock company.

STEWARD'S STEWINGS
By SMILING BILLY
Nashville, Tenn.—Arrived in town "Damaged Goods," by Andrew S. Just in time to get a peep in at Bishop and the original Chicago cast. This play was at the Bliou theater and it was real good. Some of the stars really shined. Andrew Bishop, who we all know, is in a class by himself. James Rutherford, Lonel Mongeau, Misses Edith Purnell, Grace Smith and Ora Johnson all showed to advantage. Wish that I had time to do more about the show. Next week Witts and Willis Stay Happy company.
Was down on Cedar St. Met J. Kenneen, the mayor of Cedar, and he is still holding the world by the hand. Found, David on a trip to Menan, business, but the old man was welcomed by the folks and made himself right at home. The Scribe, in his Musical Bunch last week, had an article on kidding on the job that is interesting, and he out on all my jobs, for it does just what he said it would, that is, always breaks up in a big row or fight, and that is one of the things that we can get along without. I am try-ing to get from to get a bunch that will stick to now on. Wonder if it will be lucky.
Was in to see Miss Johnnie Johnson, where I found Miss Bertha Fobbs spending the winter months with her old man, and you can see that they did the old saving act while the time was good. That dinner cannot be found in the book, Johnnie, will be his mother on Feb. 23 and he has our sympathy. Mr. Bass wishes to hear from Doc Anderson. Had to eat on my way back to the white tops. Butter Rideout is on the job and has the old drums ready for the first call of Uncle John Hello, John Williams, and I have to copie it. How is every little thing? The W. G. W. is found on sale at the Peoples drug store and I found a long mail to 401 Fifth Avenue N. bure, will reach yours truly O. K. J. D. Davis, where are you?
ADVANCE IN MUSIC MADE
Few people realize the great advances made in the recording of photos and the present-day records played in contrast to one of the phonograph records which were recorded a few
Practically all of the best music today is reproduced on phonograph methods and with the new electrical methods far more clear, brilliantly tuned and distinct than ever before. The notes are brought out much more clearly than they were in the early reproductions, is perfectly reproduced. This is true not only for the reproduction of the human voice, but also for the reproductions of the various kinds of musical instruments. An example of this great advance in phonograph record quality is the recording of the first ever reproduced by the New York recording laboratories. Port Washington, Wis., manufacturers of the famous Paramount records. Two or three of the most famous recordings by Ma Rainey, was one of the big hits on phonograph records and enjoyed an enormous sale. Hardy a young man with a new popular record. Now the Paramount makers have recorded the Ma Rainey number under the name New Bo-Westwell Blues" by the composer and composer of loving a tremendous popularity.
Ma Rainey and her Georgia band have played "New Bo-Weaver Blues" a electrical process which is a feature of all Paramount records and has been for the past two years, and on the other side of the record they have played "New Bo-Weaver Blues." If you want to see and hear the great advance made in popular music just brush the dust off your old Paramount record and play "New Bo-Weaver Blues" in it on your photograph—then play Ma Rainey's "New Bo-Weaver Blues" which is record No. 12683, just released by Paramount and now on sale by all good stores.

JARVIS WINS 8 TO 6 GAME FROM WILEY
Visitors Put Wood on Ball to Cop
By BERT LEWIS
Marshall, Texas, March 14—Before a rather small crowd Jarsley showed Wiley out of a somewhat uninteresting game here this afternoon by the score of 8 to 6.
The opening of the 1925 season being relatively early the game was played on a chilly day, which slowed the playing and discouraged "many fans coming to Wiley held to the knees." Wiley lost the game in the first timing when Edwards' and Henry's hits were followed by a single by A. L. Edwards. The second time Edwards and Henry earning a marker before Wright popped out to Smith. This gave the Hawkins and Edwards a win, was never taken from them by Wiley.
The score was tied in the fourth timing when Reynolds scored the only earned run of the session after a stiff pitch that innings made by Wiley. But the next innings saw fierce slugging by Jarsley, which put them in the lead and Wright led in the hitting.

Atlanta Kappa Quint Takes 1st Game In Interfrat War
By A. WALTER CHILD5
Atlanta, G. March 17—Running wild with a fusibleid of shots from every conceivable angle, Captain Kappas and Squat led Kappas to 22 trump over the Alphas in the opening game of the Mlanta interfraternal basketball tournament. The chilly rains failed many enthusiastic fans who crowded the Morochue college gym. It was clearly too much Squat Johnson and Big Traylor with their teammates to defeat for the Alphas. Swift and smooth, skilled to the last minute in the art of basketball, Johnson's well trained aegeus spelled out to a team of 14 players well oiled with victory. Squat was the high point man of the game, scoring 14 points, along with Captain Kappas. Captain Traylor led the fray off with a basket from a difficult angle on the side and was closely followed by a free throw by Squat. The first half ended 17 to 12 for the
Forbes, who was ejected from the brawn in the latter part of the second stanza, was a thorn in the Alphas he guarded. Little Traylor and C. C. Hawkins proved so dangerous to the Alphas that they dared not take their eyes out of the basket, substituting for Forbes, came through with his customary lone basket, ending the game.
Hamilton was high point man for the team, holding 10 points, while the playing of Wadley was outstanding, scoring eight points. Coach Sam Taylor of Clark university and Captain Stanley played hard. Taylor met Phil Beta Sigma on Wednesday, March 21, and the Omega Phi Biol on Saturday, March 24. Should the Kappas win, the Atlanta interfraternal championship for two consecutive years.

CLEVELAND ELKS BEAT LORAIN LIONS,46 TO 27
B. WILBUR M. COOPER
Cleveland, Ohio, March 15 — Revenge is sweet, and so was the 46 to 27 victory chalked up by the Cleveland Elks against the once-famous Lorain Lions at Elks' hall night before a fair crowd.
This revenge stuff was for the benefit of Captain Howard Ross of the Elks, who a few years ago was a star for the Lorainkins.
Pette Johns ran wild for the locals and counted 13 points, while the remainder of the "Hills" contributed freely. The superb guarding of Ross and Marris stopped the former Ohio champs.
The Wymne Undertakers barely won over the Williams Billiards by a 17 to 14 count in the main prelim. Our Slaughter Brothers Champs caught by the Brooklyn Bruins, 15 to 10 in the curtain raiser.
The Elks will meet the Union Trust next Monday in their play-off for the championship. Each club has a victorious its credit, so a thriller is expected.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER
FAY SAYS-
Clown Boxers
Nutter Defiant
Lanky Jones
Jack Oakes Dead
LAST week the announcement that the Hilldale club had withdrawn from the Eastern league caused quite a lot of the angst and a lot in the West. It is touchful if Bolden can carry things out the way he has planned.
The whole trouble from a western point of view is whether Bolden and Lanky Jones are the Bradley Royals, can break up the league whenever something goes wrong or not.
Nat operates a booking agency in the New York Bolden works in the postoffice at Darby and has directed the ball club. Last season the Hilldale club announced that Bolden was broken in death. Then they elected Freeman in presided by Freeman is rehired by Bolden.
Harrisburg, which was put out of the eastern circuit, will look to New York City to play Philadelphia through Bolden for its games. Most folks thought Philadelphia would be without a ball club. The Eastern league has like Nutter of Atlantic City as president. This isn't going to be against him, against a stiff proposition and his being a lawyer, usually wins out. Comes a sudden long distance call from Atlantic City which informs us he has a contract with the club and that Nutter won't be bossed or delisted by Bolden. That's interesting. Nutter can carry through what he has in mind. Hillebrand won't draw in Philadelphia. When Nutter sounds his battle cry the fire is going to fly and you can bet your last dollar that it won't be Nutter's fur either. We westernize match the fight.
CHICAGO fans were treated to a bit of first-class clowning at the Coliseum Friday night. Honeyboy Conroy from St. Paul stepped clean over the ropes when he went to enter singles for his fight with Larry Johnson.
Johnson couldn't fight because
Conroy wouldn't let him. Conroy,
with his bright light, ought to
be able to live. But Honeywell
is too ugly clowning.
He can't box. He doesn't know how to fight and should pack his gloves and join a minstrel show. He hurt the Colored boxer here. He hurt the boxer that sort of stuff you to a vodvill house, not a boxing show. He was so comical that he became ridiculous and as a result when he left the ring he was right-flowering for his triple. Glowing and singing in a bout might go all right in Conroy's home town or down in the swamps of Louisiana, but certainly not in Chicago. Everyone of Conroy's race was humiliated Friday night by his actions.
AND when it comes to playing basketball Lanky Jones of Morganville, he was the finest thing ever seen in this game. The casters came here and trounced the Willberforce university quintet which has two victories over the Savoy Big five. The final score were too smart.
They got the ball after Clarke's basket that put them into the lead with two minutes left to play and put on a passing game that "tooled the ball" to Wilberforce and a chance to regain the pill when the Morgan player would be forced over the sideline, but each time Jones outjumped his opponent after the last jump the whistle ended. Wilberforce had its entire variety team on the floor. They were, however, without the services of Coach Harry Graves and the men who were the players of the formation of the Wilberforce Athletic council. This was admitted by Capt. Thompson. The Ohio team was introduced to the public as the Ohio Collegians. Coach Charles Drew, who made a name for himself at Amherst college, came here with the intention of winning. He had a well coached team which had an uncommon knowledge of how to keep the ball well fellow from getting hold of the ball.
Sure, Wilberforce had the best shooters, but that didn't win for them. "They might have gotten some shots, but play not on Charlie Drew's team. You can't get baskets when you can't get the ball and that is what Wilberforce's live couldn't do." He had an 18 to 12 score, the Maryland starters took the second half and twice the score was tied. Those who saw those last few minutes of play will never forget. It was a thriller.
JACK OAKES is dead. He died in Buffalo. A great little fighter, or what might have been made into a greater fighter, is laid beneath the soil.
Jack went the way of others who lived as he lived. We remember when Henry Waddy brought him to Chicago only a couple of years back, but the "firewater" didn't help Jack in training and Henry had to send him. He had the makings of a good man in him and would have been a hard one to beat in the ring, but he also had his weakness which proved to be

sity five Monday night at the gym, then 2000 fans saw the easterners turn apparent; defeat in triumph. the contest was by far the fastest and most thrilling to be seen on a local floor this season. Twice held in an advantage, Will
beforeroy was in front the remainder of the time. Twice the count was knotted and during the closing minutes the winner was in doubt until it was clear. It was a heart-breaking game for Wilberforce to lose, for the Ohioans had led at the half, 18 to 12, and were still in front until the last two minutes, when Hinkle Clarke's overhand shot from the sidelines seeded two Ohioans. It was the second time in as many meetings that Morgan college has triumphed over the westerners. Last year in a game which decided the national intercollegiate basketball game, Morgan led 17 to 10, on the Baltimore courts. Wilberforce took the floor a slight favorite by virtue of environable record this season. Although Morgan had won 13 out of 15 games played, fans did not believe Coach Charlie Drew would come with the sleuth Ohioans.
Both teams presented a strong defense and resorted to the long shot route. Morgan college excelled in the first two throws, but the free throw line was largely responsible for the victory. With five chances at the hoop, Morgan sank four free tosses. Wilberforce with one outperformed the free throw line was only able to make good one, "Fuzzy" Evans and "Lanky" Jones toppet the scoring for their respective teams. Evans hooped five rings, while Wilberforce two free throws for a total of 12 points. Curt, Ward, Gibbs and Ced, Ted Thompson shared honors with Evans. Curt, Thomas, Spencer are important in the Morgan college line. Outside of the first few minutes of play, Wilberforce held away, due largely to the remarkable shooting of Evans. This hid registered four shots in the first half to put its team out in front, 18 to 12, at the intermission.
Morgan college opened the second half with a whirlwind of speed. Less than a minute later he had been in play. Brown missed in the back Ward retaliated for Wilberforce and it was 29 to 14. Spencer pushed in a free throw on Thompson's jon. Jones scored on the back and then to 17 for Wilberforce. Gibbs made a good free throw on Jones' jon. Clarke shot from the sidelines and a Spencer knotted the count at 21 to 12. Evans got to work again and sent the ball guiding through the hoop, but this lead was short. Spencer's score again knotted the score at 22 to 23. Ward took care of this situation for a few minutes when he pushed one from the center into Wilberforce's lead. Carter joined Jones and he made it good.
Trailing, 25 to 24, with but two minutes to play, Morgan college opened up with a dazzling passing attack on their feet. Clarke caught a pass from Jones and tossed in an overhand shot to give his team a 26 to 25 lead. Morgan resorted to stalling tactics in the last few seconds of play. The gun buster was Wilberforce was fighting for possession of the ball.
In the curtain-taiser, the Savoy Pike Fives the New York Alphas, 43 to 24. The Harlemites were no match for the speedy Windy City five. Savoy led at the half with 10 points. Anderson were high lights for the locals, while Hands and Gregory did the best work for the visitors.

Already some of the institutions are said to have athletes training who will lower many of the existing C. I. A. A. Records, both in the collegiate and senior levels. The Madame Walker collegiate mule relay trophy, for which schools have been competing during the past three years, was won last year by Hampton, and becomes the perma-trophy for the state. This year Robert S. Abbott, Hampton, '96, editor and owner of The Chicago Defender, will give a three-year trophy for the national collegiate mule relay, to be known as Robert S. Abbott mule relay trophy.
This trophy is given under the same conditions as the Madame Walker trophy, that is, it becomes the permanent property of the first institution winning it three times. Mr. Abbott is giving the mile relay trophy instead of the Defender 440, which he has given for several years. A trophy is to be given this year for the last time for the mile to be known as the William S. Parker half-mile trophy. It is given under the following conditions: If the trophy is won twice by the same individual it becomes the permanent property of the individual winning it; if it is only won once it remains the property of the institution when the man represents.
Dr. Parker, Hampton, '15, makes this offer in the hope of developing more half-mile runners. He was himself a half-miller and holds the half-mile record for Armstrong field of 2 minutes 1 second.
The Frank Young national high school one-mile relay trophy will be given again this year by the sports editor of the Defender, who is an athletic enthusiast, looking toward the development of amateur athletics among the youth of the Race.
The Virginia high school quarter-mile relay cup will be competed for again this year. Manassas has won the tournament this year, and it again this year it becomes the permanent property of that institution.
A trophy is to be awarded this year to the Southern All-Star soccer team. The Virginia high school relay cup will be competed for annually until it is won three times by some institution, when it becomes the property of the triple-winning team. This year it will now exist this year, with the medley relay cup having a half mile, a 440 and two 220s, for the college division, and the 12-pound shot and the mile are two additions for the high school division. The collegiate division—100-yard dash, 220-yard dash, 440-yard dash, 880-yard run, mile run, two mile run, 120-yard high hurdles, 220-yard low hurdles, jump, high jump, pole vault, discus throw, mile relay and medley relay. In the scholastic division—120-yard dash, 220-yard dash, 440-yard run, 120-yard high hurdles, high jump, jump pole vault, shot put, Frank Young mile relay and the Virginia mile relay.
Columbus, Ohio, March 17. —Alpha Phi Alpha trumpeted in its last home game when it wrecked the Springfield Aces, 55 to 45, to continue the record of 100 wins. The team, every team it has played in a regularly scheduled game and then letting the second stringers finish up the win, Springfield never got nearer than four points of overtaking the high-powered Columbus fraternity team. Both teams boasted of victories over the other teams, and interest was high in finding out which team would win tonight's game, but it was not long before that issue. Notre Dame's Whitaker, star center of the Ohio State university Greek letter gintet and former big gum of Dartmouth college, scored the first points in the game.

LINCOLN U IS BEATEN,42-12, BY HOWARD
Carpenter Leads Blue and White Attack
Washington, D.C. March 17—Lincoln university found that it was impossible to expect to defeat the Howard basketballers on their home court as they had hoped, so they could break even after losing to the Howard team in a close game last week. Lincoln was first to draw blood when Sydnor, the hanky center of Lincoln, made a pretty side court shot that was followed by two more shots by this star that made the Howard rosters howl. "Fight, Howard, Fight," Coutes, Howard's captain, responded by caging a long shot that was followed by two quick baskets by Carpenter trying the score. Assisted by Coutes, Howard's penter and Coutes began scoring almost at will, taking a commanding lead of 23 to 14 at half time. Lincoln was able to attack the machine in the attack of the strong. The second half found Coach Carr satisfied with the showing of the results and felt free to use his reserve, Tyron, who were able to continue the work started by their teammates and gathered 19 points while Lincoln was held to one door basket and five for
Sydnor, Young and Silvera started for the Lincoln five, while Carpenters and Coates bore the weight of the scoring for the Howard Blsons.
Howard will close its season Tuesday night, when it will meet the champions of the U.L.A., Virginia seminary.
In the preliminary game Howard freshmen found little trouble defeating the Wonder live by a score of 51 to 11. Forsythe and Williams started for the freshmen.

JUDGES RULE BRUCE VICTOR OVER PETROLLE

Wonderful Rally in Closing Rounds
New York, March 17. — The Fargo
Rocheloin in Madison Square Park last
night and there was a terrible
wreck. Most of the damage was
sustained by the express, Billy Petrole,
mangled by the express, sustained a
bad cut over his right arm,
concussions of the nose, a lacerted
mouth and well-nigh fatal injuries to
his reputation.
The express, conductor, brakeman
and porter of the freight, was
awarded the victory, to the intens-
light of 8,233 customers. The gate
was $23,004 net, which is $72,000
beyond the gate. The last sight
staged at the garden. Shirley and
Risko, on Monday night.
Some one must have warned Con-
ductor Flowers that the express car-
board of the New Rocheloin boxer
was very diffident during the first
few rounds. He refused to walk in
with his usual two-handed slam-
ing hand, as a fairly even
thing, for the first time.
Along in the first minute of the sixth Petrolle landed his celebrated right to the jaw. The crowd sensed that flowers was knocked silly the moment he grasped the stipation for a full minute. Flowers almost tripped over his feet going backward, and Petrolhusted in when he witnessed that. It was too late, and Flowers was unable to play for punch, at the finish of the round.
Flowers broke his right hand in the sixth and then changed his tactics. He started each round thereafter and caught every minute. He was able to face and streams of blood flowed.
Once Flowers found he had not been killed he tore into Petrolle with his old-time zest. He won the last four rounds and had Petrolle bloody and bloodied. The count on rounds gave the last four and the third for Flowers. Petrolle won the first and sixth. The second, fourth and fifth were even.
Referee Dorman gave the decision to Petrolle, and two judges gave it to Flowers. They were Tom Flynn and Joe Agnello.
Flowers weighed 135 and Petroleum weighed 133. South Africa, lost to George Doggett (white), of Greenwich village, in a four-rounder, Honora is a southpaw, but it didn't do him any good. At that the crowd was cheering, and a fray Doggett weighed 135 and Honora was four pounds heavier.

THE CHICAGO DEFENDER AKS HA
APPOMATTOX 5
WINNER OVER
ALPHA QUINT
Beat Columbus Team 40 to 28
The Alpin Phil Alpha fraternity live of Ohio State university at Columbus, Ohio, lost to the Apomatex club at the Alvin Dansant, 40 to 28. Tuesday night.
The visitors were minus the services of Forrest Whitaker who disappointed them by "purposely missing the train, and as the play of the team is centered around the former center of Bartmouth college, the Ohioans were handicapped. Yet despite the fact that the Chicago quint got off to a flying start and the more at the end of the half, he was 16. Key found the basket and posted the total to 10 at the end of the half, with the Apomatex boys on the long end with their count being 27.
In the second half, with Key going in good form, the Ohio State had worked their total to 26 and it looked like it was going to be a hot game. Time and again the ball would hit. He ran, roll around and then roll off.
The college hals who were able to work their way to the finals in the Ohio State intermural tournament were up against it because the style of play were different from that in the University circles and as a response it was not until the second half that they "woke" up and got tough along with the locals.
A fair-sized crowd was out, but not what was expected. The Wilberforce-Morgan game of the night previous was the cause of the causes, the biggest drawback of the members of the club themselves didn't come out on the first occasion of the club to sponsor athletes; that only a handful ventured out. Managers don't know the game and its thrills.
The biggest reason for the small crowd was that most of the members of the team can be found playing on the teams of the season and the rest players can be two or three nights during the week and these players unconsciously kill themselves as a drawing card.
Fisher plays with Savoy, Elks and Kappa, Excursion and St. Monica; Johnson is on the St. Monica, Elks and the Kappa; Wright played with the Savoy earlier in the season and the Kappa and St. Monica, and there later in the season.
Attorney Barnett, President Dave Hawley and Secretary Frank Stevens, along with Bill Brock, will continue basketball, straightening out these expectations as they go along. The club is expected to go out for boxing and track.

With Wilt Brothers, Mins and Taylor did all of the scoring, Reynolds and Jameson, fasthy Champaign forwards, carried the burden of scoring for the Maroons, although every man on the field was involved with at least three points. It was the balance of the Maroons that enabled them to win out in the closing seconds after Jameson, the star, had been ousted on personal fouls. And at the outset of the game and when the half ended they held a 12 to 9 margin. During the second half they were able to keep ahead of the frantle Maroons until the last minute from home defences.

"I suffered so much last spring with my right side, severe pain, and a weakness in my left side. Smith, of 422 Phelan St. Montgomery, Ala., whose picture is printed above, said I could not stand it. When I would have to stand on my feet the pain was very bad. I would get so weak I knew I must rest. I had heard so much of Cardui I decided to try it. After taking 2 bottles I felt so much better and quite so much. I kept on Cardui, and after 6 bottles I felt all right. I can highly recommend Cardui to the South and used by women for more than 50 years. For sale by druggists everywhere.

HIS FIRST PAINTING
BESTS OLD MASTERS
A painting by an elevator operator won over a drawing by Sargent and rolls by other well-known American artists as the first picture to be sold by the newly opened art galleries of Thomas Russell, 37 E. 57th St.
The picture is the first attempt at painting by John T. Halstalk, 32, 117 W. 60th St., who has been elevator operator, furnace tender and general handy man at 37 E. 57th St., which houses several art and antique dealers.
Some time ago, after studying carvasses by radical painters which he carried up and down in his elevator, Halstalk made the boast that, although he had never touched palette or brush, he could paint a better picture than some of those he handled.
Some six weeks ago, he said, he started work on a painting to portray memories of Warrenton, Va., where he was born and brought up. Every evening at home he did a little work on the canvas. Last week he brought it, still wet, to Russell. It was soon purchased by an art dealer.

"A fellow carrier advised me to try PERUNA, which I did—I soon noticed a vast improvement in my condition after the first bottle. After using three bottles I was in fine shape. Could cat and do my work without any trouble—felt like a new person. I now take PERUNA as a good tonic and to brace me up!"
Outdoor workers need protection against exposure. That's why you'll find so many of them turning to PERUNA as a good friend, because they know that this grand tonic, famous for fifty years, will guard their health.

Mothers:
Don't have those worries that alm any baby's mother can easily avoid having! Castoria, an old-fashioned but time-honored preparation soon ends those cross or frettful spells. Simple, safe, but works like magic. The helpful influence of Castoria makes itself felt throughout baby's tiny system. It helps make pale babies rosy-checked, and seems to give strength and life to frail, sickly babies. It regulates baby's little bowels—relieves colic, constipation, diarrhea—gives him good appetite and digestion. And how it relieves congestion baby catches cold! give baby paregoric or a few drops of Castoria

A few drops of Castoria are just as soothing, and no harm is done. Even castor oil can not compete with Castoria; and Castoria is vastly better for a baby's system. Castoria is purely vegetable, harmless, pleasant-tasting. You can use it as often as baby is "upset" or fretful. Only one thing to be careful about—see that you get the genuine—the bottle which bears Fletcher's name. It isn't expensive. Doctors have recommended Fletcher's Castoria for over fifty years and millions of mothers swear by it. With each bottle you get "Care and Feeding of Babies," the book any mother or prospective mother will find worth its weight in gold.
