MAN'S DEATH IS PUZZLE TO HIS LAWYER
Was Claimant to Oil Lands in South
Hopkinsville, Ky., June 7.—The mysterious death of Tom Johnson, 57-year-old claimant to oil lands in Oklahoma worth $20,000,000, here several weeks ago in the state insane asylum may result in dual investigations in Kentucky and Oklahoma being conducted to clear up facts surrounding the passing of the former Mayfield, Ky., plasterer. Two years ago Johnson was a hard working man seeking to own a home and have a small bank account. A federal agent traced Johnson to Mayfield, where he took the plasterer and shared in the allotment of oil lands given by the United States to the Creek Nation, an Indian tribe, since the father was a member of the tribe.
Life Threatened
The worker suddenly became the center of attraction while a large corps of lawyers fought each other over the land. The two attempted to prove that Johnson had no right to a share in the valuable oil lands, and the other seeked to share in the land. He shared in the Indian lands because his father was a Cree Indian. There were reports after Johnson went to Oklahoma last month of offers he received from the court, threats being made against his life if he did sign the legal documents. Several people in McAlester, Okin, where the court hearings were held, attempted to obtain Johnson's signature. Two weeks ago Johnson was placed in the Memphis, Tenn. jail as an insanity suspect and was on trial for his sanity. Several days prior to that he had been harrassed in Oklahoma by various interested parties in the case, counsel, Judge B. Gardner (white) of Mayfield, KY. went to Oklahoma for the hearings set for April 30, but when the case was called it was continued until July 1 at Muskegue.

SHRINERS WIN BIG VICTORY IN U. S. COURT
Washington, D. C., June 7.—The United States supreme court in a decision Monday held that white Shriners in Texas could not prevent the Ancient Egyptian Arabic Order of Nobles of the Mystic Shrine from using the name and insignia of the fraternal order which the whites contended were the properties of their organization.
The white Shriners won in the lower courts. Justice Van Devanter in delivering the opinion, to which no dissent was announced, said the reason for the contested nature to object within a reasonable time had lost their right to act.
Victory Far-Reaching
The Shriners have won one of the most important and far-reaching cases that has been before the United States Court of Appeals for the Second years relative to the constitutional rights of our citizens. On Dec. 18, 1918, the white Texas Shriners at a tough and vigorous fight against the organization using a similar name and insignia, asking the court to enjoin members of the order from wearing the emblem and insignia of the Mystic Shrine.
The enjoined Shriners engaged the Chicago law firm of Denison, Watertown, E. White, by reason of the connection with all branches of the Masonic order, was made the general counsel by the imperial council of the Shriners. The Shriners were appointed upon the final decision of the courts in the fight, and the fight, which had started as a local matter, quickly became of national importance when were taken from the most learned men of both Masonic orders in all parts of the country. The question of the constitutional rights open market regalia and other fraternal equipment and use them as freely as the white lodges became an outgrowth of the controversy.
Whites Win in Texas
In the Texas lower courts the white Shriners obtained a sweeping injunction against the Texas enjoined Shriners but threatened to wreck the order in North America. The case was then taken by the enjoined Shriners to the decision of the trial court was affirmed. The fight was then carried to the Texas supreme court by Attorneys J. E. White and S. A. T. Watertown, Wilford H. Smith, late of Houston. This was the first time in the history of the Texas supreme court since the reconstruction days that our attorneys appeared before the court to
The Texas high court affirmed the decision of the lower courts, and in so doing held that white men had the right to vote. The court prevented our citizens from having a similar one. Caesar R. Blake Jr. imperial potentate of the Shriner, then ordered the lawyers to appeal the decision. The case was argued Jan. 12 and 13 1928, and the case was taken under advisement by the supreme court and held until Monday, when the court of the Texas courts was reversed.

Girl Loses Finger Tips in Explosion
[CAPITAL NEWS SERVICE]
Washington, D. C., June 7.—Miss Ruth Downing of Philadelphia. Pa., a junior in the college of pharmacy of Howard university, had the tips of three fingers amputated and is in Freedmen's hospital recovering from severe shock caused by an explosion in the chemical laboratory of the university.
The explosion which rocked the science hall occurred shortly before 11 o'clock Tuesday morning while 24 other students were at work in the laboratory. None of the others were injured.
Bleeding and hysterical, she was rushed to the hospital by Dr. Percy Milan, of the department chemistry, with the help of a assistant, Robert Thomason, where she was given emergency treatment and later put to bed.
She was taken all of the blame for the explosion, which she said happened because she had failed to obey one of the rules of the laboratory, which requires that all chemicals be removed as soon as an experiment was completed. She had failed to do, and in a hurry to use a flask she attempted to empty one containing a solution left from a former experiment. No mishap occurred with the bulbs of the material. It was the few drops remaining in the flask which exploded and broke the glass container in her left hand.

SUPREME COURTHITS PROPERTY OWNERS IN D. C.
Upholds Restrictions on Realty Sales
Washington, D. C., June 7.—Restrictions on realty sales to our citizens were held legal Monday by the United States supreme court in two cases involving the ownership of property in the District, of Columbia. The court refused to review decisions of lower courts holding valid restrictions against sale to our citizens.
One of the cases affected property which was purchased by Henry Corrente, a real estate developer. The owners took possession with residents of the neighborhood brought suit in the lower district courts to enforce a covenant in the deed of the property. This case stipulated that the property should never be sold to our people, under penalty of payment of $2,000. The this restriction challenged this restriction as illegal, the lower courts uphold its validity.
Upheld Lower Courts
The other case involved property sold to Edgar T Newton and other persons by Edward G. and Susie D. Brennan, the owners. The sale was challenged by white residents on the ground that the deed by which the Russels originally purchased the property contained a warrant against more than white buyers. The Russels and the buyers of the property both contended that the clause was an unlawful restraint upon the right to transpoxy and unconstitutional. The lower courts held against them. The United States supreme court in neither case handed down a written order to the owners of the collions of the lower courts.

Such exhibitions of temper by her husband reached a climax on Feb. 4, 1925. Mrs. Knox asserts in her bill that she should protect her home, beating and kicking her severity. He threw her on the floor, the bill charges, shattering the glasses she wore. She was blind in one of her eyes for three days, she sheared her eyelids and had pickled the glass from her eye.
At the time of this assault, Mrs. Knox asserts in her bill, she was soon to give birth to her present child. She was assaulted by her husband, who forced her to leave her home. The complaint further alleges that during all the time of her married life she worked and supported herself and nurtured to the support of her husband.
Asks Custody of Child
Mrs. Knox is asking the custody of her child and that the household furniture be given to her and that her expenses for the carrying on of the suit filed against him and for the support of herself and child. An inquest was held for the bill restraining him or any of his agents from in any way molesting her or the child during the pendency of the suit. More than a year her marriage was Miss Myrtle Davis, daughter of Mrs. Estelle J. Davis, 4314 St. Lawrence Ave. She was a popular member of Chicago's younger social set and is well thought of by her many friends.

Roanoke Institute Ends
Successful Year's Work
Elizabeth City, N. C., June 7—The Roanoke institute of which Professor C. S. Graves is principal held commencement exercises in Corner Stone Baptist church. The commencement address was delivered by Rev. E. C. Smith, pastor of the Roanoke institution, and Washington, D. C. Rev. Smith paid a tribute to Professor Grave, who has been head of the school for 35 years and after it the works were in attendance during the past school year. The baccalaureate sermon was delivered by Rev. T. Tagger, pastor of the Roanoke Baptist association, which supports the school, held its session just prior to the commencement and contributed to the school. Most of the teachers' salaries were paid by the association. Rev. R. A. Cartwright, president of the Roanoke Baptist convention, is moderator of the association.
The woman who includes St. Joseph's G.F.P. in her daily health program seldom finds that dull headaches, lack of "pep" and quick fatigue ruin her hours of recreation.
For St. Joseph's G.F.P. is more than a mere stimulant! Not only does it soothe ragged nerves and banish fatigue; but it conditions the system, increases vitality and tends to correct the causes of woman's petty ills.
If you are run-down, weak and deficient—finding life and its pleasures dull—you may only need the help of a good tonic to build up energy and strength. Thousands of women who have tried and been benefited by St. Joseph's G.F.P. urge you to try it, too. You can get the big dollar bottle at your dealer.

S. D. M'GILL GIVES ADVICE TO GRADUATES
Addresses Seniors at Florida A. and M.
Tallahassee, Fla. June 17—Gillizons from all over Florida last Thursday from all over Florida for annual commencement exercises of the Gillizons agricultural and Mechanical college held in the college and auditorium chapel. The commencement address was written by the Gillizons attorney of Jacksonville, Fla., who was a student at the college 30 years ago. Many Gillizons attended the Gillizons journeyed from Quincy and Gadaden counties to witness the ceremonies and greet the principal during his childhood.
"Work and the Man Prepared" was the subject of Attorney McGill's message to the youths who were involved in the affairs of the world as builders.
Knowledge Counts
"To successfully meet the new situation which now confronts you you must have education as distinguished from your knowledge. Knowledge that really counts is knowledge that can be turned into practical usefulness. Not necessarily for financial gain or for the attainment of social prominence. Knowledge that first of all enables the possessor to make a living. Knowledge which falls in that is superficial and without practical value." state Attorney Ben K. It "would be eminently better for you to know the 14th and 15th amendments to the Constitution of your country, the speech of Lincoln at the Battle of Gettysburg, than to be able to recite all of Shakespeare's Hamlet" or Julius Caesar.
Much to Be Done
"The world which will confront you is not an ideal world by any means. There is much to be done. Our group has been working since the Civil war. Rooted in slavery, by persevering and patient efforts, it has ascended to its present heights. This tremendous gain has allowed us to gather together or the use of money alone, for we are not blessed with much of either, but on the other hand, it has been accomplished by hard work, research and training. We furnished the beacon light of reason which is essential to the progress of any race." President J. R. E. Lee of the college appointed prizes to leading students and graduates. The commencement exercises were attended by citizens from throughout the state. Technical addresses were delivered by citizens from each branch of the institution.

Call Police to Guard
Riotous Church Meeting
Spartanburg, S. C. June 7—Police were called last Tuesday night to protect life and limb at a meeting of the board of deacons of the Mt. Morrish church, of long standing in this community, has been torn by a squabble among the deacons and at a meeting of the congregation with the deacons and the pastor, Rev. J. S. Earle, the row went into high ear while two policemen
The trouble started last October when Rev. Earle is alleged to have given the church's funds, signing the name of Evely Shippy, the church treasurer. Shippy swore out a warrant, charging the pastor with forgery, although the church said he had given him the right to issue checks. The congregation resembles a legislature with two houses, one side rightmost, the other, with Rev. Earle at stake.

Student Was Run-Down
"I THINK Cardui is the best builder on the market—I can say to this for it was a help to me," writes Miss Margaret Burris, 602 E. Vine Ave., Knoxville, Tennessee.
"During the last year in high school, I felt very weak and run-down. Several of my friends told me about Cardui and suggested that I try it.
"I went to college I weighed 95 pounds, so I decided to try Cardui, and when the school year was up, I weighed 130 pounds.
"I would advise any person who is nervous, weak and in a run-down condition to take Cardui, for I am sure it will do them good.
"After taking the Cardui, I am not nervous any more, and I am in the best of health."

My answer is that we must think in ultimate, these nations were things immediate, things material. They lived for themselves; which has always characterized mankind's most constructive endeavors. The struggle for existence is the most difficult, the psychic, and the mills of competition are grinding finer and finer. Life is making strenuous demands upon the business today.
"The survival of the Negro," he declared, "is not a foregone conclusion. It is not a certain more uncertain proposition in the realm of race relations of the United States, but in this country. Within 20 years the Negro in this country may have to face the challenge of an attitude toward manual labor," he asserted. "There is a danger that the negro's standpoint of subsistence because the Negro has not yet indulged that voluntary sacrifice for more or less subsistence or habitual life. There is a danger in the vaunting of Negro progress and the failure of white friends. To survive he said, "the Negro must be just a little better equipped to work and employment is bound to be more and more a part of the industrial order. This will finally fall upon the Negro. The race question is now entering on its economic phase—the most stubborn of

Praises Common People
He expressed his love for the common people and his determination to prove that he was proud of their support and I want them always to know that they have a friend in me because I came from them. My mother used to wash and iron for a living. And to pay them back in some measure I sent two boys, sons of common people, to West Point and Annapolis. In the future procedure in congress, Mr. DePrief asserted that "you elected me. I lost all the money but but one exception, and that I am going to serve white and black alike with but one exception, and that black boys for West Point and Annapolis. I was asked what I would do if the black boys whom I nominated were more black boys." Mr. DePrief said.
In speaking of the discrimination in Washington and how a few of his fellow pressmen sought to avoid him and his pressmen, etc., the speaker declared his intention to exercise every right to enjoy. He braced as false the rumor that he had hired a white secretary to cover the news of the Chicago newspaper that carried a story to that effect. "Morris Lewis is all the secretary I have," the audience
His Educational Campaign
During his brief stay in Washington Mr. DePriest said he found the independence and of the Constitution. This inspired him to begin an educational campaign to the race. He had 10,000 copies printed and mailed out free to any man or woman who wanted to run either 10,000 or is printed. He said. This brought the speaker to suffrage in the South as it affects citizens in other states. He cannot vote in the South, then they should not have representatives in congress" he asserted. "We ought to have a representative in every instance. Stand by the men who stand by you," he advised. Relative to the records last semester, they show that in South Carolina where no one but white can vote, that a vote in that state counts more than in the other states. "Everywhere I Mr. DePriest added, "I teach the people how to organize politically and advise them to select good leaders and follow."
Touching upon the 14th, 15th and 15th amendments, the congressman said he would give the dollar to enforce the 15th amendment if the South ignores the 14th and 15th amendments and he fight down there," he added, "and I appreciate the fact that the eyes of America are contested and we are the broken down in this country and I've got to help; do it," he said in conclusion. He gave left Thursday for Washington.

FEDERAL LEGAL POST GOES TO D.C. ATTORNEY
E. J. Davis Succeeds Late T. L. Jones
CAPITAL NEWS SERVICE
Washington, D. C., June 7.—Kristen J. Davis, junior member of the law firm of Howard, Hayes and Davis, was sworn in as assistant district attorney at noon Friday, to fill the vacancy caused by the recent death of Hon. Thomas L. Jones. At present he will be assigned to handle cases in the traffic court.
Particular significance attaches itself to this appointment, the first important place to be filled under the new administration, inasmuch as it will allow the leaders of the Hoover campaign to be disregarded in the distribution of patronage. It is hailed as a signal victory for leaders of the regular organization Republicans are concerned with, that the cordiality with which their suggestions were received resulted in arousing the ice of the state central committee, whose suggestions concerning policies and candidates have consistently ignored by the administration.
Mr. Davis received his legal training at the Howard University law school and was graduated therefrom in 1933. Immediately upon graduation in 1934, he joined the District of Columbia and has been practicing here with marked success for six years.
He became associated with George C. Hays in 1935, forming the firm of Hays, Hays, and Hays, recently become Howard, Hayes and Davis, Perry W. Howard, former special assistant to the attorney general, becoming the senior member immediately upon the resignation of duties in the department of justice.

CENSUS BILL BEFORE HOUSE FOR PASSAGE
Dixie States May Lose Seats in House
Washington, D. C., June 7. After defeating by a margin of one vote an attempt to limit to the year 1930 the operation of the census and reapportionment bill the senate Thursday passed this measure which makes provision for the 1930 and all subsequent decennial censuses and for automatic reapportionments of members of the house of representatives by a vote of 57 to 26. The bill is now before the house for action. It is estimated that 25 house seats will be transferred from one group of states to another as a result, but the total number of house seats will remain. The southern states will be hard hit by the measure if it passes the house.
Cites Disfranchisement
Distranchishment in the South was injected Monday into the house debate on the census and reapportionment bill. Representative George H. Tinkham, the Massachusetts senator, offered an amendment instructing the director of the census to ascertain the number of inhabitants in each state whose right to vote in the last election numbered congress or state officers "has been denied or abridged, except for rebellion or other crimes." Representative Tinkham asserted that the census would be showing the distranchishment of citizens would compel a proportionate reduction in the representation of states affected in congress. Such reduction would be under the clause of the 14th amendment providing for reduction in congressional representation in proportion to the distranchishment of qualifying citizens. Representative Tinkham, in addressing the house, declared that in keeping with President Hoover's insistence upon law observance it is the duty of congress to take steps for the offence of unlawfully clause of the 14th amendment.
The house devoted Monday to general debate on the combination bill authorizing the 1930 census and providing for automatic reintroduction in case of failure to enact legislation after any decennial census.
Dixie Faces Loss
Census experts estimate that the country's population in 1930 will be 123,000,000. They figure that the reapportionment of congress, which will be the first since 1911, will shift 23 states, that many from the following states:
Alabama, Kansas, Louisiana, Maine, Massachusetts, Nebraska, New York, North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Tennessee, Vermont and Virginia, one Indiana, Iowa, Kentucky, Mississippi, two each, and Missouri, three.
Similarly the shift will benefit other states as follows: Arizona, Connecticut, Florida, North Carolina, Oklahoma, Oregon, and Texas, two each; Ohio, three; Michigan, four, and California six seats.

CHICAGO DETENDER STAGE-MUSIC-MOVIES
George Dewey Washington Is at Hippodrome, London; 3 Eddies Are in Switzerland
Let's Cut Out Vulgarity
Unfortunately some of our stage performers take delight in using vulgar and indecent language. The public will stand for jokes that are a bit risque, but vulgarity has no place on the stage. The class that approves of such drives away the theater-loving public.
SATURDAY, JUNE 8, 1929
By IVAN H. BROWNING
London, Eng., May 29.—
George Dewey Washington,
after a. wonderful run a. the
big Palladium Kit Kat club and
Holborn Empire, is appearing
at the Hippodrome, Manchester,
the finest hall on the Stoll
tour (outside of London).
George Dewey is in a class by himself and believe me he has certainly learned the English audiences. He returns to London next week where he will appear at the popular Alhambra and the British club. He opens at the beautiful Amadaussadee club in gay Parce next week and ward returning to America. An unusual honor has just come to him in that he has been asked to come to the King of Spain, Leaving London a week before opening at the Amadaussadee in Paris, he will go direct to His Royal Highness. I am sure his many American friends are, like myself, most delitious in Europe, and will always be assured of a big welcome should he return to Europe, and in the great Robeson, George Dewey's need remains the same size.
The English Blackbirds, headed by Eddie Hunter, Johnny Nitt and William Hunt, play in the Kentucky season with the revue and are at present in Belfast, Ireland, with Dublin to follow. The Eddies are returning to the continent shortly and will open in Switzerland for the month of June with southern France to follow. Kentucky dancers are at the exclusive Ambassadeurs club in London and are doing fine. Elliot Carpenter arranged several of the singing numbers. Gilbert Holland, basso, who has been a big success with the English boatboat* company, sold for America. The very successful London show, which was held at Palace theater, after a nine month run. The show closing so soon came somewhat as a surprise to everyone of the real life of the London season. Popular Walter Richardson will play a short season of variety in the well known Jimmie Ferrerson next week on the D. J. Clarke tour at the famous old Angie theatre in the well known Jimmie Ferrerson have had a great season in the West End and each were easily an outstanding hit in this splendid English
The Four Harmony Kings, with their variety road combination, are the most famous of the group with the Hipodrome, Norwich, to follow and the Hipodrome, Ipswich, the week of May 27. A success from an artistic viewpoint, On the other hand the English people do not understand what it is all about, there is no business picky about it, then continue to lose money he has put up the closing notice. Unless business picky about it, he will not work week. In the last day or so the newspapers have started another big boost which should in a big measure help business grow. Alfred Butt is bringing "Harlem" to London, if so he too will lose money. He is a businessman and are revues or musical comedies where our people are concerned and they love to hear them sing and see them play. Danny Small and partner will play the Pavilion, Glasgow, Scotland, next week and after a few brief visits to Paris they will sell for America. Danny's real in a class by itself and is one of the classiest of the beautiful, wonderfully arranged, fine personalities and great showmanship. We need more of Danny Small and Danny Small
T. Elder Hearn's "Dark Town Scandals" are playing in and around London. It is reported that the show will shortly close. I saw the show recently and I was impressed by Miss Elizabeth, Smith and Hazel Van Leeuwen are outstanding hits in the show, while G. Carlie, Smith and Hazel Van Leeuwen works very hard and all through the show. Mr. Carlie is still an A No. 1 artist at once just why he and his partner, Wellman, were such a sensational success in English and showmanship is quite unusual and showmanship is quite unusual and I particularly enjoyed his work. To have and still able to measure up with some of the best is indeed wonderful
and Mr. Carline deserves much credit. He and his wife (who is also his wife) partner, are dead and will be buried overnight will play the halls for the remainder of the summer. His opening at the KK Cat club in Pleasantville, George Dewey Washington had as his special guest, besides pretty Mrs. Marie Washington, and Mrs. Ivan H. Browning and Mrs. and Mrs. Danny Small. George Dewey's reception was perhaps the KK Cat club this season. He sang in his usual wonderful way and was accompanied by the red hot, Abie Lady Mary Cook accompanied Mrs. Maurine Browning and her young daughter, Haroldine Leota, to Southampton, on the coast of New York.
It is most extraordinary when one stops to look at the world; especially in America is on Race music. On the other hand, it is interesting indeed to know that many of the musicians has before anywhere and as I see listening with much interest to Paul Robeson at the great Albert Hall it was plainly noticed that even though Robeson simply charmed the audience with his spirituals, the songs themselves had an effect on the people which showed about a great understanding between the black and white races and will wipe away race prejudice as nothing more. Hall was easily the crowning point in his musical career and he deserves able to more than justify his appearance at such a hall. We are indeed proud of Paul Robeson we could have done or will do that will help him and help the Race as well any people at Albert Hall.
An unusual thing about Robeson is his quiet, unassuming and lovely success does not have to change one to a great extent" and I'm afraid that he is one the very few really big successes in a big measure channeled. Robeson's success is international and he certainly has right to be proud of his success in his sincere friends will. I'm sure, wish him continued success at all times. He is doing a series of summer concerts for Lionell Powell agency and, of course, the answer is turn away business everywhere he appears. The last half of July. On the other hand plans are being completed for his long tour this coming season on the exclu-

But Cain was himself than his audience and the Gael performance went over. Cain was reeled Cain so secret that he slew Abel. When Cain where was his brother, Cain so kept the keeper? The Master seemed to that was punished accordingly.

Opinion first to ensure that think sober, conscientious and reliable. The first stage as though the future of their
Professional jealousy is as old as the first humans of which we have any authentic record. Shortly after Adam and Eve were evicted from the Garden of Eden they brought forth two sons, Cain and Abel. It so happened that these sons put on a sacrificial performance. Both were acquainted with the Garden of Eden, where there were other sacred, props and accessories. But Cain was thinking more of himself than his audience and the Great Audience detected it as quickly as any present-day audience. Abel's sister was even more excited. Cain so excited that he slew Abel. When the Master asked Cain where was his brother, Cain sought to disclaim all responsibility and replied: "Am I my brother's sister. The Matter seemed to think so, and Cain was punished accordingly."
If there is one thing lacking in our artists it seems to me that it is a sense of their responsibility to their audience. Most of our artists, when they reach the high spots, conduct themselves as though the fortunate circumstances allow them to make all conversations and make a noise like a subway riot. If there ever was a time when our artists who are the most important artists in our community their responsibility it is now. Opportunity is opening the doors to every department of the theatrical business, the performing arts, the concerts and reliable. They should conduct off stage as though the future of the Race in the rest tipped upon their shoulders. We need them to be bad, our classes and our cults, our preferables and undesirables, but unfortunately they are not the ones that make us the ones to be bad, we are all placed in the class of undesirables. It then behooves us. In front of Connie's inn at 31st and Seventh Ave, there stands a tree. We dubbed it the "Tree of Hope." If you should pass and see some of our impressibles making the choicest of the performances, we are going through the proper ceremony calculated to bring them good work. We station them, but a few of them really believe that this tree can exercise some potent influence over their
The other might one of our young producers was so immersed in self-esteem on a certain contract that seemed assured that he disclaimed faith in his own business. After this one signal failure he couldn't see where he would ever again have such an opportunity to make good. The owner of 135th St and Seventh Ave, the same evening a crowd was gathered about an old man. He looked at him and said, "You years old. His white hair and whiskers were carefully trimmed and combed. His clothes were very clean. But his hair. He looked though he might be a minister to Haiti or Liberia. He was one of the people Vidor's great picture. "Halilleh."
A few months ago this old man was hospitalized for getting about hareheaded and in his shirt sleeve, winter and summer, no matter what the weather. The question is, how did he get about hareheaded and in his shirt sleeve, winter and summer, no matter what the weather. But I have learned that he had one greater claim than the eccentric "blues." At the age when most persons are a burden upon the public or those relatives, "old folks" home, this old man walked about with his head in the air, confident and self-reliant, and learned, believing always that he was going to get what was his due from him. He is planning a trip to Purishe. He means to enjoy the life that is left him and see all the things he learns, believing always that he was planning a trip to Purishe. He means to enjoy the life that is left him and see all the things he learns, believing always that he might live to see twice $1 years, and may the joy of his remaining years be shared with him, years of slavery and hard labor that he endured so bravely and hopefully, to offer, though for a long time the market may be closed to your product, and you must keep plugging your product, the time is bound to come when you will get a sale for it. Don't sing the "blues" keep plugging your song, discouraged, "jay keep plugging" along.
Dame Fortune proves her feminine tendencies. If you wanna be she is very likely to Hitz you. If you chase her, at every turn she will elude you, or you will be able to win until you fail in the slough of your own despondency. But if you go confidently about your business, doing what you want, when you least expect it, she will slip from behind your favorite chair, jump down and fall on Dame Fortune is a flickle jade, but once you win her favor, she gives you the world for your foot-stool. There is an old Gaelic rhyme which goes: Thrice the age of a dog the age of a horse. Thrice the age of a horse the age of a man,
Thrice the age of a man the age of a stag.
Thrice the age of a stag the age of an eagle.
Thrice the age of an eagle the age of an oak tree
of an oak tree.
Bruneau goes on to say:
"Trice the age of an oak tree is the age of the sequoia gigantea, the age of the sequoia giantia, the age of the big tree in the age of the Rocky mountains, and three billion times the age of the Rocky mountains and the age of the sequoia gigantea. And yet some of our actors can contemplate. If they ever take time from the age of the Rocky mountains to contemplate anything else, this contemplate anything support a "swelled head," a compass to as much as a snow lake in the river. Yet one can almost enjoy a confirmed egotist. Nothing seems complacency. And nothing is quite fatal to his future as this same complement stage in life he no longer learns, he has hit the tobogan and is on the decline that will shunt him. Age should mean accomplishment. And their is no greater joy than the completion and has met the Master's approval, what else is there left for us to do to contemplate us and lie down to pleasant dreams."

SHOOTS RED
SOX PLAYER
McHaskel Wounded in the Foot
Judge William C. Hueston, on a visit to Chicago Sunday, when informed by the Defender sports editor concerning the shooting of McHaskell, first baseman of the Memphis club of Defender, pitcher who formerly played with American Giants and Birmingham, said that Poindexter's act automatically removed him from baseball as far as the National league is concerned.
St. Louis, Mo., June 1—Robert Poindexter, 29, ace pitcher for the Memphis Red Sox could not win his battle Decoration day against the St. Louis Stars, so that night at 11 o'clock he gave vent to his spleen, shooting his teammate, J. C. McHaskell, 25, first baseman and most indispensable player.
The tragic occurrence was at the Grand Central hotel, where the Memphis team secured quarters during a series of games here with National league champions last week. The shot from Poindexter's revolver penetrated McHaskell's left foot. His assistant was arrested and held at police headquarters charged with assault to kill. At City hospital No. 2, where McHaskell is a patient, he waived his right to prosecute Poindexter and he was released from police custody. Decoration day the St. Louis Stars carried their grip on first place out at the St. Park's park before the largest attendance seen this season by hamiltonizing the visiting team from Memphis with a tally of runs 44 at the St. Park's park, who started for Memphis, had been driven from the mound with four runs in three innings. Poindexter was sent to his relief as a saving power only to find that his team and teammates were charged against him.
So it happened at 11 o'clock Thursday night, Mellaskell, who had an aid, joining him in the house, group in to talk over the game. "Well Fell is ladies' day at the park and you ought to do better with the girls all were in," he said. "We were in no mood for 'kidding' and he pulled out his pistol and shot Mellaskell in the foot. At the City hospital surgeons said Mellaskell's condition was not seri-
The manager of the Memphis team, Harry Kenyon, described the occurrence as a most regrettable incident. He said the rating of his club has been the highest of the McHaskell out of the game. He spoke of the injured first baseman as one of the National league's greatest slugging infielders. McHaskell is a native of Pine Bluff, Ark., where his wife is survived. The president of the Memphis Red Sox, Dr. Nesbitt, was in St. Louis Saturday investigating the trouble. It is understood that Pointedexer, a former player, played in a highly temperamental nature. According to information, he has a criminal record.

DETROIT STARS GRAB SERIES FROM THE AMERICAN GIANTS; MILLER, JACKSON SUSPENDED
Phil Edwards, captain of the New York university team team, beating the finals of the 880-yard run on Saturday in the annual intercollegiate A. football game in Delphia, Pa. . Contrary to expectations, Edwards was not started by coach J. Michael Concacaf. A 410-410 New York university mentor prepares to keep his captain
Bingo DeMoss and his Detroit Stars breezed into town, dropped the first two games of the five league game schedule on Memorial day, then picked up and took the next three and the series. The series as far as the league standing is concerned was five games. All others were ruled as exhibition contests by Judge Hueston. DeMoss had a lot of trouble in leading the first half of the split season. They have five games at St. Louis and five games at Detroit against the St. Louis Stars. The Giants don't seem to be out of it for one reason, it is for a short time. Loyal fans are hoping that Owner Trimble will see it fit to help Manager Brown out by getting new players. The Stars had both ends of the double-header from the Detroit Stars on Memorial day, winning the opening contest, 3 to 0, and the nightcap, 2 to 0. Both were well played
Davis scored the first run of the first game in the fourth on a delayed double, steal. Radcliffe getting the ball but tagging the runners, he was hit on the plate. One was out at the time. Tyler kicked so strenuously over the decision that he was put out of the game.
In the fifth Willie Foster opened with the double. Gardner sacrificed. Thompson went out. Henry to Rilee Davis singled to center, scoring Foster. Davis stole second. Russ doubled, scoring Davis.
That was all and that was enough. Russell was the whale of a game at short for Detroit. He showed lots and lots of class.

Havana Red Sox Continue to Win Games
Sd Pollack's famous Havana Red Sox reached the North this past week in a blaze of glory, scoring their 55th victory of the current season by easily defeating the East Orange A. A. on Memorial day, who are rated as the strongest white club in the East, the score being 10 to 5.
High Pockets Brown twirled his 21st victory of the year in defeating the East Orange sluggers while his teammates pounded Hugh Fulerton, former Boston National league hurler, for 20 safe blows. Immuza, the Havana Red Sox catcher, shamed a home run over the left field wall in the second inning to the score after East Orange took the lead in their first turn at bat, and then the Culinary cluggers began their rampage starting in the third frame, tallying four runs on hits by Cueria, Ramirez, LAmza, Hernandez and which they coated to an easy victory.

Al Brown-Gregorio Bout Is Bantamweight Title Go
New York, May 29.—Among the more extraordinary developments at yesterday's meeting of the state athletic commission was the noticeable eagerness on the part of several diminutive prize fighters to give performances for nothing, and this may be the beginning of a reactionary trend by which athletes will attempt to become amateurs instead of vice versa.
The commission began its work by agreeing to recognize as the defending bantamweight champion the winner of the Pamela A Brown-Yildel Gregorio engagement at the Queensbury stadium June 18. Perhaps in gratitude for this ambiguous pronouncement, the managers of the two fighters, Dave Limiansky and Al Mayer, respectively, begged to allow to have their own fighting matches.
The commission generously insisted that the boys be paid for their exertions, so the fighters agreed to take a small percentage. The team had 20 per cent of his purse to the relief fund of the National Sports alliance, the charity whose benefit the show has been designed, and it is expected that the team will gift Kid Chocolate and Terry Roth have been provided to cuff each other on the same card.

(A. T. A. Champion, 1922-23-28)
Last week's announcement by The Chicago Defender of the first open national lawn tennis championships to be played on the Washington park grass courts of the Windy City July 27 has elicited no end of favorable as well as curious comment. A number of the country's players who have never seen a real lawn tennis court, though they have won any number of matches, even championships, on clay and the hard courts of Washington and California, have written to just what effect a grass surface has on both a cut and a drive.
In a word, my friends, if you play a fair game on clay or concrete you will be sure to come across a scene stroke mastery will be on a perfect turf. If you can play on clay you'll be better on grass. And let me say right here that the South Park commissioners are sparing no cost to get the lioness in Washington park will equal in velvety smoothness that found at Paris, Riviera, France; Wimbleton, England; Newport, Conn.; Forest Hills, Long Island, and
It will interest the players in Indianapolis, Detroit, Cleveland, Dayton, Columbus, Pittsburgh, Louisville, Houston, Des Moines, St. Paul, Seattle, San Francisco, Oakland, Los Angeles, etc., that six beautiful grass courts are now being specially treated in shape for the tournament July 2. Every day the grass is treated throughly by a man whose business has been just that for the past 20 years. Then, twice a week on Wednesday and Saturday three times a week, the grass is simultaneously, after which the grass is given another heavy sprinkling. Six men will continue this performance until the courts are in perfect condition. The grass is done under the careful supervision of the lawn tennis experts of the South Park commission. Tennis players in Chicago and envy courts for practice, as well as 25 city courts in Washington Park, which have just been newly netted. The grass courts have also been provided with temporary backstops, which are used by all entrants in the tournament.
All clubs and individuals must send entries to Edgar G. Brown, Chicago Defender. Each event will be limited to two teams. The winner can enter more than two events. Trophies donated by the South Park commissioners for the first national lawn tennis championship will be awarded the winners in the men's and women's categories, each mixed doubles, and junior singles. These beautifully engraved cups are now on exhibit in the front display window of Walgreen's, 41th and South parkway, Chicago.

LEAGUE PREXY ASKS SUPPORT OF BALL FANS
Judge Hueston Writes on Conditions
By JUDGE W. G. HUESTON
(President National League)
The National Baseball league is well on its way in the playing of the schedule of the first half of our baseball season for 1929, the same ending July 4. We have concluded the playing of six of the ten series which constitutes the first half of our playing season.
We have been beset with the worst playing conditions, so far as the father is concerned, since the institution of the league, 10 years ago, by our beloved Rube Foster and his associates.
In four out of the six series played, our teams have either been rained out or it has been too cold to play. This has affected our league in many respects. First, it is to be remembered that two-thirds of our playing area is in the northern section of our country, and to be handicapped at the beginning of the season with rain and cold weather for four weeks means that it has been impossible for our teams to be in the best playing condition, and inasmuch as our league depends practically on about three of the seven days of the week for financial success, it is plain that this side of our league has been very greatly handicapped. However, notwithstanding these conditions and the inequity in the league conditions we are, in my opinion, presenting the most evenly balanced league since our inception.
In the playing of each series it matters not when teams are opposing, but when teams are playing has opportunity to win, and as the season advances this condition will be more apparent than in the highest type of competition. For it is now admitted that the class of baseball played in our league is A-A minors, and the season will be more appropriate for reasons other than just because it furnishes good sport. The league furnishes employment to several hundred young players to the joint team owner of well over $200,000. Many of these young men are college students, and in the way earn the more money, they thus favor these young men the team owners in many instances put themselves to great disadvantages. In order to thus favor these young men the team owners into each season in order to keep up with their studies, which has resulted in several instances in destroying the season. This opportunity to win the pennant. This is the 10th playing season. Our league has given evidence sufficient to be depended upon for the permanent and we come now to the place where we feel that we have justified the right to appeal to the public for support.
First, we, for 10 years have kept faith with the public by phone our public library, though at least do so has cost the respective team owners thousands of dollars.
Second, we have cleaned

Third, owners, managers and players have to describe the discipline, which assures that the games are played in conditions that match the public demand? What more could the public demand?
It is expected that we are have some good league, submitting the president of the league, submitting a great American game of baseball has a definite and helpful place in the lives of the team, this great country. We are writing all the league games, hoping that in each city where we have a team that our attendance will be at least 150,000 for the season, it is necessary to succeed, and could feel very happy if our various civic and fraternal associations in the various cities where our teams are located, have a good element of the league to learn about this result.
DALLAS HURLER CAN USE EITHER ARM ON MOUND
Dallas, Tex.—Opponents of the Dallas Black Glants in the Texas, Oklahoma and Louisiana league never know what kind of pitchers they may have when Horace Cole hits them against them. The chunky Dallas moundsters pitch equally well with either arm, and is never quite sure himself until games are played, when they throw three games in four days in a recent series with Houston, alternating right, left, right.

Lincoln Giant With Hon
New York, June 2.—The first 1929 series between the Lincoln Giants and Homestead Grays ended at the Protectory oval today when the two teams divided a double-header
The standing of the teams at the end of the series was five victories and two defeats for the Lincolnns thus giving the New Yorkers a wide margin of victory over the Pittsburghs. Two former Harlem pitchers were on the mound for the visitors Sunday. Smoky Joe Williams pitched to 8 to 6, while Sam Street pitched his team to an 8 to 6 victory in the second game. Rector was on the mound for the Lincolnns during the winning game. Big winds prevented many long drives during the first contest, but in the other there were five home runs. Charlie Smith of the Giants led the pack with two, the others being made by Rojo, Cannady and Kawhi, who hit one over the flag pole.
Streeter also led the visitors at bat, getting four hits in four games. He played in New York Sunday, June 9, for a double-hender, their first visit in over two years.

Atlanta, Ga. June 1—Cleve Roby has sold Roy Ace* Clark to Max Hoff. Well in the thousands.
Clark at one time was in Walk Miller's stable, until Miller let him go and Bob also his助手 Jindee Roy Dunn and Tiger Taylor. Dunn is at present in New York and has been granted a license, and he has worked with some of the best boys there and critics say that he is the best in his weight—13S pounds—that they have seen. He is very anxious to match him against Baby Joe Gans in Atlanta in the near future. He says he will offer Gans a neat sum for the price of $5. He has met of $5 starts and only been on the floor for the count of two once. Taylor, $2, is fighting in and out of Philfarris and working up a fair record for himself.

McAllister took Mothler's roller and Allen singled, and then scored on an error by Wesley, Allen scoring; Taylor singled to right and Livingston whiffed. Joseph walked and Duncan singled, cleaning the paths, and then scored on the plate when the side was retired.
The Barons scored their runs, one each, in the second, third and seventh innings, and the Coopers' seven blows, but the Monarchs' hits were well scattered. Heavy rain at the close of the first game prevented the continuance of play. Birmingham featured at bat with three triples. The score:

KIWANIANS TO HELP SPREAD GOOD WILL ERA
Dr. C. Smith Speaks to Mixed Group
By EVANGELINE ROBERTS
With the disquieting evidence of racial friction growing more apparent, especially in the employment situation of Chicago, the goodwill with the African-American day afternoon was particularly significant and hopeful. Led by Michael Montague, chairman of public affairs, the African-American women and women of affairs gathered at Abraham Lincoln center, Oakwood Blvd. and Langley Ave. became better acquainted with the cause of humanity, with the golden rule as their motto.
Mr. Montague, chairman of the affairs department of the various Kiwanis, who represented the club of Hyde Park and associated clubs of Woodland, Englewood and the vielleicht personality of Dr. Copeland Smith, famous radio lecturer and executive secretary of the Copeland Monsons, followed by his question box, are a regular feature over station WCFL, gave greater spirit and effervescence.
"I have been plining for something like this for a long time. This problem of the races has interested me for years and I have been in America. I do not believe there is any ready mate remedy, any panacea; I do not be able to find a mate for a race problem lies in any spasm of intellectual energy, rather it lies along the line of atmosphere. Every problem is solved by a man who would be tragedy if this meeting dispersed and we never met again; a fatal mistake if we adjourney and said good-by with no plans for the future." Dr. Smith de

He gave undoubted proof of his keen interest and deep understanding of the conflicts, cling incidents of personal contacts and impressions made during a visit south, which he made to the United States, to patter and to untruthfulness" the charges of crime and wantons made against our race, cling statistics and the fact that this section of the country suffering from the effects of misgovernment of southern states, whose immigrants have been the source by misgovernment of countries like Roumania, Poland, Russia, Italy and others, whose migrants had also
"Remember what happened in 1864, and then compare the tiny interval will do more than cheer the amazing progress." Dr. Smith suggested a sort of questionnaire from a given group, and the six things they feel most essential in life. These ideas, it was latter agreed, could take the form of a secretary, a secretary of Lloyd George of England. It was unanimously agreed that a permanent organization be formed by Lloyd George, a charismatic member of the committee to go forward with the business of appointing men and women to start on as Mr. Bingso so aptly summed up the essence of the conference, an attempt to see if it is more favorable to the great South side, bringing together important factors vital to its growth, exploring for a nuance, and the mightiest beds might be served. Political, business, religious or personal motives were disvowed.
Among those present who pleaded guilty in the case were Baymond J. Chris, president Englewood Kiwanis; James Vorg, president Washington Improvement Association; back Garfield branch; James F. Phillip, Wicks department store, 73d and Cottage and Doug Douglas national bank; Dr. Charles Thompson, J. V. Parker, Garfield club; Mr. Marsh, Drescel state bank, Mr. Crow, Douglas national bank, Mr. Vineburg, Nahum D. Brascher, Fish furniture stores; A. L. Foster, Urban league; Chude Barner, Robert Noble, Dr. T. W. Stephens, boy worker, who it is said, was instrumental in initiating the movement some time ago at the University of Missouri, Mrs. Alle Anderson, Mrs. C. Kelly, Mr. Harris, B. L. Smith, Mrs. Clarkstone, others were read from prominent Kiwanis unable to be present, each promising fullest co-operation. The letter from Dauphin sent to the attorney, "I hope we can make this a wide thing. You are starting in the right place for experiment. Mr. Vorg targe at the close of the session.

With independence comes respect from one's contemporaries, to disfranchise, to segregate or otherwise discriminate against those for whom they have a right to work, is obvious that, in the final analysis, recognition must come to us only in proportion as we can command finance, we are not going to be rather than seek employment and diminish the number who are objects of charity.

When seen as a disguise of business, Mr. Cole, the general president of the company, hid aside his work and with pardonable pride deplored most of the problems of his organization, whose growth has been so phenomenal and which, by its principles of fair dealing, is steadily winning the confidence and praise of an
The funeral system, maintained by the Metropolitan Funeral Corporation or the original and its kin in all other states. The funeral system, it may be explained, as distinguished from the organization, composed of more than 50,000 persons who have taken out certificates of membership from the Metropolitan corporation is the body, composed of officials responsible for the carrying out of the provisions of the Idea of such a corporation had its origin in the brain of the late farrester, who was 70 years ago, and in 1923 incorporation was effected. Having adequate financial backing from the public sponsored by men who had long enjoyed the confidence of Chicagoans because of their interest in public trust, the corporation met with immediate acclaim and its growth has exceeded the fondest an-
As evidence of the sound policies and strict adherence to contracts with holders of certifications in the field of growth of this organization. As against 10 salaried employees in 1926, there is no permanent, dependent growth of men and women. And, in passing, it may be mentioned that these salesmen realize earnings of from $12 to $100 per month, depending on the growth of childhood and the means will be at hand to hurdle the economic bars constantly being erected against our program of business. We was done in an office on the ground floor having an area of nine by twelve feet. Today the building is nonoperated and the volume of business demands get larger quarters. We was asked, "Do you consider responsible for the almost incredible growth of the Metropolitan Funeral Corporation?" Without a doubt, with adherence and with one own proposition so necessary to convert others, he replied: "First the
Absolute trust in the terms of our contracts through our reserve of $75,500; second, the personnel of the officials and their co-ordination of officers, third, the office force and, last but not less in importance, the unique aid which only the Metropolitan Punjab is able to offer is of supreme concern. The fact
be seen the ten prizes offered by the league, including "winner" the governor, and highest scoring worker. Left to right, the winners are: Mrs. Delaware; Mrs. Caribel Plumlee; New York; Mrs. Mamie W. Taylor, Mrs. Roberts; Mrs. Theresa McDonald and Mrs. Quida
that no word of condensation has been uttered at any time by any of the holders or officers of more than 100 members, or how diligently we regard our obligations to members of the funeral system." When one considers the service of members of the funeral system, it is no wonder, as one salesman said, that the certificates "sell themselves."
There is no joining fee required for members of the funeral system as dies as little as 10 cents per week and never more than 50 cents, according to age when joining. According to averages, the company would live long enough to pay in $400, the cost of the funeral guaranteed to every certificate holder.
You are in immediate benefit the moment you receive your death notice to you and should your death occur the next day the same burial would be given you as as would be accorded the next day the same burial would be given you as 10, 20 or 30 years. Whatever the cause or circumstances of one's death, he is entitled to burial, no matter how long he has been emptied. Even death by suicide, however close it follows upon taking out of a certificate, is regarded as losing it if it is kept in quart, from insurance companies and similar organizations.
There are innumerable cases where burials have been given those who, at that time, had death to $1, $2, and even as little as 60 cents. And in return for these small payments, Funeral corporation burial is provided, which consists of preservation of the body, a woman's silt plaster, a grave cover, a plaster or metallic caset (buff coffin), a hearse, two Cunningham lionouses, a grave box and a grave plaster, and a plaster-applicated for less than $50 in cash.
In 1928 the Metropolitan Funeral corporation buried 137 persons, many of whom were still living insurance company. Their relatives were thus saved the embarrassment which far too often comes at the time of death. The fact that not so favored that they feel able to maintain insurance upon members of the family is seen, therefore, what a been such an organization is to those in modest circumstances. Nor must it be assumed that those in better circumstances receive the benefits of this corporation.
Some of the most prominent, high-quality cultured and well-trained families of the Metropolitan Funeral corporation, their action upon the theory that the large insurancees they carry may very well purchase of homes, educating businesses such as investments, business purchasing of homes, educating meanwhile provided by the Metropolitan Funeral corporation. There is the closest affiliation and connection between the corporation and the families of the deceased. These are conducted as the bereaved wish, at the residence, at an church, at a funeral home, at a home, and burial may be had in any cemetery. The officials of the Metropolitan Funeral corporation, Messrs. R. A. Cole, A. E. Raynor and F. Lewing, an institution which is at once a monument to racial accomplishment and a fitting contribution to the on-going institution of America's most progressive city.

And as the Nogro music already tinged in the rocky eclecticist music we was further civilized, the tiny vestige of the tombs of the ancient people of "Comprete My Old Kentucky Home" with I Hear the Voice of My Porkhops Hues, which is a direct designation of the music we will see the difference at once.
Nina Mae McKinney, the 17-year-old from the chorus of "Bluebirds" and acted herself into a long contract with Metro-Goldwin-Mayer as principals to arrive in New York. She came back for the premier of the picture, which she said she had had to work on for three weeks, and with her was the girl whom Vidor named "Hot Shot," but who was baptized Evelyn Pope Miss Darwell is a graduate of Union university and has a degree in theater. She was a chorus girl at the Cotton club, and went into the picture as a Dixie jubilee singer. She came out of the picture, including playing the piano accompaniment to Nina Mae's songs. Nina Mae's success, it might be, is truly trouved in its wake. Honey Brown, who originally was cast for the vamp part, and who was a glamorous figure trouved in its wake, Miss Darwell said:
The Church Scene
"Nina Mae won her big part at the baptism scene in Tennessee. It was a very important scene, and she was all kept up by Mr. Vidor said, 'Will you start singing jubilee to make everyone laugh,' and she sat singing, and Nina Mae broke down and got happy, and that is how she got the job. The important scene was the church. There are two or three hundred extras in that scene and everybody sang 'I Belong to the Band.' Several people got happy in that and fainted. Ninn Mae fainted.
"It was mostly from the heart," Nina Mae interrupted, "we rose with teeth in a happy, youthful smile. It was awful hot and we worked awful hard." Out, there was a nurse on the set, "Mas Burell said, 'and several people got trampled."
