David, sitting in the Superior Court of Cook County was called upon a few days ago to untangle a much tangled marriage problem involving Glendora Jones and Arthur Jones. It was alleged by her solicitors, Cantwell, Smith & Cantwell, in their bill of complaint, that Mrs. Jones who, notwithstanding the fact that she was already married, had been forced by some hypnotic power exercised by Jones to marry him. Mrs. Jones contends that she was already married, and that the ceremony of her first marriage took place in Kenosha, Wis., and was performed by Judge Taylor of that city and that during the absence of her husband from this city, she met Arthur Jones, who told her that he was a hypnotist. She testified to weird stories told by Jones, as to his power over human beings. Among other things, she claimed that Jones told her that did not marry him he would turn her to a dog. At this junure of her testimony the court asked her if she, a woman of her intelligence really believed the things that Jones told her. She said that she did Judge David seemed to be surprised, disgusted and amused. Both the girl and her mother, Mrs. Cannon, contended that the manner and the method of her marriage to them was not clear, as they claimed that during the ceremony Jones had them under a hypnotic spell. Mrs. Cannon testified that the ceremony was performed by Rev. Robinson, pastor of the Antioch Baptist Church, at 58th and Lafayette Ave. An effort was made by the WHIP to communicate with Dr. Robinson but to no avail. After the court had heard all the evidence, he signed a decree annulling the marriage. VA. TOWN ENTIRELY DESERTED BY RAGE Bristol, Tenn., Aug. 2.—One of the most deplorable spectacles witnessed in this vicinity since the devastation caused by the Civil War is apparent to all sojourners through Esserville, Va., and the surrounding county, from which every colored person has emigrated, leaving homes, property, cattle and stock and crops on the ground. All colored farm hands and domestic servants have left with the others and industry and agriculture are at a standstill. The rich whites do not know how to work and the shiftless element of the same race has given itself up to pillage and thievery. The wholesale exodus was caused by some rumors that all colored people would be driven from the town. The colored people took the white hoodlums at their word and left town voluntarily, much to the surprise and chagrin of the white population. The trouble was caused by the fatal shooting of Policeman Tom Wilson in a duel between the policeman and a colored man whose identity is not known and who made good his escape to the hills, on last Sunday afternoon. Yesterday the mayor of the town joined with the county solicitor in begging all colored people to return, assuring them full protection. As yet, none have shown the disposition to come back. "THE ALL THE NEWS The Monogram Theatre, known as the "House of Filth," is still living up to its record. The management has made no move to improve the sanitary conditions either by proper ventilation or by disinfection. It is difficult to understand why the department of health does not order this place closed. The city authorities should not permit the health of thousands of people to be jeopardized for commercial purposes. The Monogram is not only known as the fiftieth public amusement place on the island, but it holds the reputation of permitting the vilest use of language possible in its manner of entertainment. It is alleged that as a result of the unsanitary conditions of this "rat trap" that a number of women and children have contracted disease. These conditions have been brought to the attention of the authorities and will be continually pressed until they are remedied. The ordinances required by the city health department for places of amusement have not been complied with, it is alleged. The WHIP will continue its crusade until this alleged theatre is made properly habitable for its patrons. Another feature of the Monogram which has caused it to stand out as a house of filth has been the character of the acts and their use of language, at times obscene in its expressions. This has made it an eyesore to decent and respectable people and has occasioned much unsavory comment. It is no place for young girls and boys to visit whose moral persuasion is likely to be influenced by the character of shows they see and the vile jokes that are permitted on the stage. It appears most in the hands of the managers, is to garrer their unholy gold at the expense of the morality of the community. In their exacting of "the pound of flesh" he shows no regard for the comfort or the mere health of his audience. SEARCHES FOR HUBBY WITH AIR-RIFLE SEARCHES FOR HUBBY WITH AIR-RIFLE Evanston, Ill., Aug. 5.—Mrs. Ora Murphy, 1014 Wiltmore Ave., Wilmette, was in Evanston a few days ago in search of her husband who, she claimed, had been absent from home a week. She brought with her in addition to her high regard and love for him, a persuader which bore the appearance of a gun. Policeman William Johnson found her with the instrument in hand. When he sought to remove it, she pulled the trigger. It proved to be, however, an air rifle. No one was hurt, not even her husband. HANGED FOR MURDER OF BROTHER Pensacola, Fla., Aug. 5.—Hosea Poole, colored, was hanged in the county jail at noon today for the murder of his brother, two months ago. After killing him with an axe, Poole slipped the axe handle in the waist band of his brother's overalls, then dragged the body 100 yards, throwing it into the water. CHICAGO, ILL., SATURDAY, AUGUST 7th, 1920 By Spencer Russell Duluth, Minn., Aug. 4—Judge Cant's courtroom was filled Saturday morning by interested spectators to witness the second hearing of the cases in which seven colored men are charged with the rape of one seven-year-old white girl. Much interest was added to the case because 5,000 citizens of this northernmost city of the United States had already taken the law in their hands in most approved Southern fashion, adjudged three men guilty and executed them according to "lynch law." True bills had been reported against all seven of the men appearing in Judge Cant's court and they were held in custody in default of bail. The grand jury reported that Isaac, one of the three lynched men, was innocent and was only being held by the police as an important witness. Just before the prisoner were arraigned, Attorney C. R. McCollough, who with several Duluth citizens, has been in charge of the arrangements for the trial, secured the services of Atty. F. L. Barnett, of Chicago, to take part in the defense. Mr. Barnett arrived in Duluth on the morning of July 23rd and appeared in behalf of the prisoners that day and Saturday. The first blow struck in behalf of the prisoners was a motion to quash which was presented by Mr. Barnett and upon which arguments were heard and the case continued until Saturday, July 31. The continuance was given in order to allow the state prosecutor to file affidavits for further argument. Mr. Barnett returned to the fray Saturday, and after an all-day argument before Judge Cant, the court took the points of law and the precedents under advisement and stated that his decision will be announced within the next ten days. The arguments against the motion were answered by Atty. Barnett, who produced law from more than a dozen states and even from the United States Supreme Court sustaining his contention that the indictment should be quashed. The whole city is anxiously awaiting the decision of the court and it is forecasted that the indictments will be quashed. The movement to raise funds for the defense of the colored men was backed by the N. A. A. C. P. Atty, Barnett addressed a large meeting Sunday, July 25, and a silver offering was raised to carry on the work. The people of Duluth are determined that these seven men shall receive a fair trial. THROWN INTO RIVER AND DROWNED THROWN INTO RIVER AND DROWNED New Orleans, Aug. 4.—Rivers Perkins, 14-year-old colored boy who was deliberately thrown in the Mississippi River by four white men late Monday evening, has been found. Upon instructions from the Coroner's office, the remains were brought to the morgue where examination was made to determine the amount of violence that had been used. Emile Young (white), 18 years old, 70 pounds, was held to the Criminal Court, Wednesday morning, charged with murder and was released on a $5,000.00 bond. Others implicated are Freddy Rickers, Walter Hill and another boy called Pinkey. The Power Behind The Throne VICE POLITICIAN OMAR 20 SUES TRACTION CO. WORLD CONVENTION FOR $20,000 OF NEGROES ON SUES TRACTION CO. WORLD CONVENTION FOR $20,000 OF NEGROES ON Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 5.—Holding the Georgia Railway and Power Company responsible for, criminal acts of its employees, Mrs. Daisy Taylor, colored, filed suit for $20,000 damages against that corporation for the loss of her husband last Sunday night when he was killed by a conductor on the Inman Park line. In the bill of complaint, filed by Attorney J. Walter LeCrew, the woman sets out that Henry Golden, the slain man, was her husband and that he was killed without provocation by W. R. Taylor, the conductor. She charges the company with negligence in employing the conductor. Taylor is now under $2,000 bond waiting trial in Police Court August 5, when a number of Inman Park residents have been summoned to appear as witnesses. MIAMI THREATENED BY 400 BAHAMANS Miami, Fla., Aug. 2.—Florida National Guardsmen were called out tonight to protect the city from disorders threatened by 400 natives of the Bahama Islands and British subjects, who have been aroused over the death of Herbert Brooks, one of their number, charged with assaulting a Miami woman. Brooks was arrested at Ormond, Fla., Saturday, and reported to have been killed in a leap from a train taking him to Jacksonville for safekeeping, but the other negroes said to believe instead that he died at the hands of a mob, made a demonstration and threatened to obtain vengeance when he, body was returned to Miami. Troops were patrolling the negro residence section tonight. New York, Jan. 4.—The Universal Negro Improvement Association opened its first convention here yesterday with the announced purpose of electing a "world leader and a negro leader of the 12,000,000 people of the United States and a provisional president of Africa." A constitution and a "bill of rights in the name of the negro" also will be adopted, according to Marcus Garvey, president-general of the association. The convention is scheduled to continue until August 31 with representatives of negroes in all parts of the world in attendance. A public meeting is scheduled for tonight at Madison Square Garden. OUT-RUNS OFFICER'S BULLETS The days of the golden west during the time of the "Forty Niners" when Id steel and the men who drew the quickest were the law, was refreshed in the memories of the citizens of Shreveport, when Jim Jackson, alias Bud Kelly, alias Jim Cohn was chased through the streets skillfully dodging the well aimed bullets fired by officers whom he had eluded. The culprit of many names was accused of having aid in stealing lumber from a local lumber yard. He was placed under arrest and put in an automobile. While officers were arguing as to his guilt he leaped from the car and ran at full speed dodging the hot missiles of his would-be captors until he finally lost them in the dust made by his momentum. The next day, however, he was caught hiding beneath the lumber he is alleged to have stolen. THE TRUTH WITHOUT FEAR SHORT WOOING AND HASTY MARRIAGE CULMINATE IN DUAL TRAGEDY ELOPES WITH 74 YEAR HUNT LOUISVILLE OLD "DADDY" SLAYER EIGHT PAGES TH SH HII SHORT WOOIN MARRIAGE IN DUAL Short courtship and quick marriage culminated in a shocking tragedy Monday morning between two and three o'clock at 3263 South Park Ave. when Eugene M. Cestero, a Porte Rican, 40 years old, shot and killed his wife, Fannie Cestero, age 26, then sent a bullet into his own body while in their bedroom. As a result of this intensive courtship and hasty marriage the bride of but a month and a few days is dead and her husband seriously wounded at the county hospital. The people who live in the apartment with the Cesteros claim to have heard two shots fired but upon investigation, satisfied themselves that the shooting took place out in the street. Hence, the tragedy was not discovered until 7 o'clock Monday morning when a friend of Cestero called at the house on his way to work at Armour & Co., where Cestero was employed as an interpreter of foreign languages. His inability to effect an entrance after considerable knocking at the door and the fact that the light was burning at that late hour, aroused his suspicion and he gave the alarm to other members of the household. A ladder was speedily secured and placed on the ground on the 33rd St. side of the building so as to give access to the room, from which point of the homie's attention could be discovered. Mrs. Cestero was already dead and Cestero was unconscious. A 38 caliber reveler was found near the right side of Cestero with two chambers empty. The dead woman was previously ELOPES WITH 74 YEAR OLD "DADDY" James Lawry, age 42, 1925 Federal St., came home Thursday, July 29th, 1920, and found his wife, Jean Lowry, age 35 years, had departed from his home without leaving any word of her whereabouts. On investigation, Mr. Lowry found out the name of the expressman who moved his wife's trunk, he immediately got in touch with the expressman and found that the trunk had been taken to 5101 Wentworth Ave., 2nd flat; on going to the apartment, he found his wife living there with J. B. Atkins (white), age 74 years, of Gary, Ind. On returning home Mr. L. Lowry searched the house and found a box of letters written by Atkins to his wife. These letters contained many recitals of Atkins' love for Mrs. Lowry. One of these letters stated that Atkins could have Lawry killed for about $400,00, making Mrs. Lowry free to marry him. The other letters told of the inability of Mr. Lowry to give Mrs. Lowry the luxuries of life and for that reason she should leave him and come to her "DEAR DADDY ATKINS," who could supply her with all the luxuries of life, fine clothes, automobiles, etc. Mr. J. B. Atkins is said to live in Gary where he is reputed to be very wealthy, having retired from business several years ago. He is now financing a large milk dairy for his two sons who are residents of Gary, Indiana. Suit will be filed immediately by Harris B. Gaines and Richard E. Westbrooks of the firm of Ellis and Westbrooks, for $25,000 for alienation of his wife's affections. KILLS HUSBAND WITH ICE PICK Atlanta, Ga., Aug. 2.—That the little things in life count most was demonstrated in a family duel which proved fatal to Archie Willis at 425 Bell St. His wife, Maud Willis st obed him in the heart with an ice pick. She claimed that he had chased her and cut her with a razor and that she used the ice pick in self-defense. He died instantly. The woman was taken into custody by Policeman Barker and was bound over to the state court on charge of murder. It is believed that she will hang. PRICE FIVE CENTS IOOTS MSELF G AND HASTY CULMINATE TRAGEDY married and had two children by her first husband. A boy, Fred Lee Wooten and a girl, Tressel Wooten, ages respectively 11 and 9. are visiting their grandmother, Mrs. Bettie Wooten at Bowling Green, Ky. The whereabouts of Mrs. Cestero's first husband are not known. Mrs. Adelaide Hall, a sister of the deceased, is visiting New York and is the guest of another sister, Mrs. Glen Martin, 227 W. 135th St. both of whom were immediately notified of the shooting. Mrs Paul Hard and three brothers, Frank, Judge and Roy Wooten are also residents at the Cestero home. It is said that they will attend the funeral which will be conducted from the Jackson Under-taking Parlors, 3313 S. State St. At the inquest which was held Wednesday afternoon at 2:00 P. M. at the Jackson Undertaking establishment, it was determined by the coroner's jury that Mrs. Fannie Cestero came to her death at the hands of her husband, Eugene Cestero, who afterward attempted suicide himself, resulting from jealousy on the part of the husband. In an interview with Col. John R. Marshal, a member of the parole board, Col. Marshal said that Cestero has a record and is now on parole, the state penitentiary at Joliet for having shot and some two or three years ago, for which crime, he served something like two years. According to this information, Cestero is still under the jurisdiction of the officials of Joliet, in that his parole is not complete. HUNT LOUISVILLE SLAYER Louisville, Ky., Aug. 4.—In an altercation between James Smith, 45 years old, 645 South 12th Street, and Ben Neal, aged 30, 1106 West Madison St., both employees of the Kentucky Biproduct Company, Neal was shot and instantly killed. Smith immediately fled from the scene and no trace of him has been since found. Eye witnesses of the shooting claim that Smith accused Neal of being infatuated with his (Smith) girl. Result of this argument, the shooting occurred. AN INSURANCE WIZARD FRANK L. GILLESPIE The above is a faithful representation of Frank L. Gillespie, now being called the "Negro Insurance Wizard." Mr. Gillespie has, by his masterful management of the organization of the Liberty Life Insurance Company won for himself a place among the peers of insurance men. For many years he had identified himself with insurance companies of the other race doing business among colored people, and through his ability as an insurance man had poured thousands ENTS TEST EDITORIALS UNDER THE LASH OF THE Why Os WHIP oe Cw KA °K. ..

Repeaters are well in evidence at every performance. One of the greatest features in the piece is a native hulu hulu shimmy dance, that is typical of the regular Hawaiian dancing girls. As an added attraction for the remainder of this engagement Miss Margaret Ward Thomas, that clever little actress, has been secured. Miss Thomas stands in a class by herself when it comes to dressing her act. The scenic effects are most gorgeous and her costume are alone worth while seeing and all this coupled with her neat acting and good singing, make her one of the best little actresses in the game.

The Avenue Theatre— The LaFayette Layers are putting over in great style "It Pays to Advertise," a world renowned farce comedy, a packed house is the answer. "It Pays to Advertise," a Farse Comedy by Roy Cooper Mmegrue and Walter Hackett Was the Bill at the August Theatre. This Week. "It Pays to Advertise," as farce comedy by Roy Cooper Megrue and Walter Hackett, now playing at the Avenue Theatre, is an interesting and laugh provoking three-act comedy built upon the psychology of advertising in the business world. Youth and new methods, startling in their ingenuity, combat with the conservative ideas. A. B. Comathiere, as Cyrus Martin, father of the spendthrift and idle son, admirably portrays the choleric character, and Lionel Monagas fittingly and naturally impersonate the spendthrift and carefree son. Briefly, the story of "It Pays to Advertise" is that of a choleric father who has tired of his careless son's extravagance and is at his wit's end to find some way to instill ambition into him. The old man employs a young adventures to capture the boy's heart and lure him into some gainful pursuit. At this juncture a stranded actor, who is imbued with advertising enthusiasm, appears on the scene, and the two scheme together to lather the slogan with a new soap under the slogan "The Thirteenth Soap, Unlucky for Dirt." The proposed concern exists only on paper, of course, but the enthusiasm and nerve of the two convinced the old man that if it paid to advertise nothing, it certainly paid to advertise something. The natural climax comes with the obdurate father reclaiming his repudiated son, and the adventures falling in love with her contemplated prey. Susie Sutton pleased as the Comtesse de Beaurion, and J. L. Crinen was typical of the bombastic, verbose actor, in his loud clothes and flamboyant conduct. The rest of the cast is good.

Chicago's Largest Merchant Tailors S. W. Corner 31st Street and Indiana Avenue Next Door to Avenue Theatre MUSIC NOTES By Mildred Bryant Jones Memorizing—Part III. In memorizing a selection, the central thought is the melody and the first thing to be done is to get that indelibly stamped on the mind. It is best to learn first one measure, then groups of two or four measures at a time, but under no circumstances to attempt a larger group than eight measures. This melody should be so familiar that it can be sung or whistled. After the melody is thoroughly mastered, the octaves of the bass should be learned in order that the foundation of the harmonies used may be known and understood. Lastly, the aeggio accompaniment is to be memorized. To a student of harmony, this process of memorizing will be and seem most natural and those who have not studied harmony will find it probably the safest and quickest method for correct memorizing. One of the main advantages in beginning to memorize by getting a firm hold of the melody, is that if for any reason one should not remember what comes next in the accompaniment, the melody can be continued until the accompaniment can be recalled. The Influence of Music on the Direstion For many hundreds of years people have realized the value of music at the table and it is a known fact that the Greeks and Romans rarely ate their meals except to the accompaniment of music. Several centuries later Voltaire said that people were in the habit of going to the opera in order to digest the dinner they had previously eaten. Recently we have realized the certainty of the influence of music on the digestion. Pawlow, the great scientist, made extensive experiments along this line and found as a result of the investigation and experiments that music, by arousing pleasurable emotions, promotes the flow of the digestive fluids and that, curious as it may seem, the principal nerves of the middle ear cuds in the center of the tongue and connects with the brain, reacting similarly to the sensations of taste and sound.

He was also. one of the main factors in the or- ganization of the Public Life Insurance Company, recently organized, and helped shape the policy of that company, which has both white and colored men upon its board of directors Mr. Gillespie began to realize that in surance was one of the biggest. busi nesses in the country. He also bexan to realize’ that there was little or mo place in the insurance world for the colored man so long as the big insur lance companies continue to operate as they do, There were hundreds of youns colored men and women, capable and efficient, who would never be given the opportunity 10 utilize their abilities under the present conditions. So Mr Gillespie resolved to build an insurance company among. his own people ‘The obstacles attendant upon this task seemed insurmountable. It was neces sary to deposit $100,000 in cash with the state. In addition to this it would be necessary 10 have in hand an addi- tional, $200,000 for operating purposes Tn other words, $300,000 was. requisite for the commencement of a first-class, OLD LINE LEGAL RESERVE LIFE tNSUHAN ER COMMEAN YS Some people laughed, others scoffed, many doubted, Mr. Gillespie was told that the time was not ripe, that $300,000 could riot be raised among colored peo- ple, that confidence in an institution of this sort could not be instilled into col ored people, Nevertheless, the organi zation was commenced. Sale of pro posed stock hegan, and the Liberty Life campaign was on mi earnest Two. years was the allotted time in which to dispose of 10,000 shares of stock at $30 per share. ‘The campaign was prosceuted with such vigor and energy that twelve months later, June 30, 1920, over 7,500 shares have already been sold, over $225,000 has been subscribed, and bold prophecies are being made that the cam: paign will be brought to a whirlwind finish not later than October JIst Thus the doubting Thomases have een convinced, and those who hesitated and stood by the wayside to “see how it would come out” are coming in daily and buying stock. They now know that in a little while it will he too late, and they don't want to be left out in the cold. +The wonderful success of the Liberty Life is due directly to the management of Mr. Gillespie. He knows the insur. ance business from start to finish, and has few equals at the art of salesman- ship. He hay proved his worth, and is now being rightly called “The Negro Insurance Wizard.” HERO GIVEN’ “WAR MEDAL. ~Q HANGED Anniston, Ala, Aug. 5—Set. Edgar C.

State St. From information obtained in the neighborhood it was learned that White and Richardson had had an altercation in a gambling place, lo- cated in that vicinity, sometime ‘dur- ing the day, Monday, and that Rich- ardson had threatened to use a Ynife on White, who swore that he would get Richardson at the first opportun- ity. It appears that this first oppor- tunity came Tuesday, for notwith- standing the fact that a police officer was standing across the street when he saw Richardson advancing toward ‘the Greek Candy Store on the north- ‘west corner, he ran behind him shoot ing as he ran. Although being shot Richardson continued to walk and entered the store, where he died a few minutes later. Upon examination by the police he was found to have gun and plenty of ammunition on his person, but made no attempt to de- fend himself, White was immediately arreste¢ and locked up at the Cottage Grove ‘station, Richardson was married and lived with his wife at 4557 S, State St. BABTISTS PREPARE FOR CONVENTION TheBotwakuAssemkumaTradingCo General Merchants Head Offices ELIMA & SECONDEE.

THE WORLD OF SPORTS Written on the Cuff of Julius Culpepper Before a goodly crowd of fish who were unable to get a peep at Babe Ruth Joe Green's Chicago Giants and Rogers Park fought a hard battle, Rogers Park having the break in their favor, and getting away with a 2 to 1 win. The Giants' defeat was due to their poor judgment on bases. They had good opportunities to score in both the seventh and the eighth innings. With men on first and second in the eighth, Luther hit a long drive to left field; a woman could have scored from second on the hit, but Duncan, who was coaching at third base, refused to send the runner on but held him with both hands while Fenton was juggling the ball. Luther pitched a wonderful game of ball and should have won his game; besides, he got two of the five hits gathered by the Giants, and struck out time men. Joe Green was as comical as ever on the coaching line. He keeps the fans in an uproar with his witty remarks. Walter Ball was all dressed up in a red sweater and uniform like a baseball manager. He is the best cabaret manager in the business. * It looked as if the Giants would tie up the score in the ninth with a man on third and one out. A pinch hitter was put in and he never hit a foul. Duncan, who used to line 'em out of the park when he was with Rube, was the next up. He took a swing at the ball, which was far on the inside. He professed to the umpire that he was trying to get out-of the way of the ball, so he was given another chance at the next ball, which he missed a mile.

It ought to have been soft for the Giants the way Luther was pitching. He struck out nine of the hard hitting North Siders. Joe Green has the find of the season in Frank Duncan, the kid catcher. He is an exact counterpart of Petway and has an arm like a veteran. Lafferty only set down five Giants. Gorman opened the first inning with a single to center. Fenton sacrificed to second. Nolan hit down third base line and was thrown out by way of third to first. Gorman taking third on the play. Beckwith threw wild to third and Gorman scored. Warden struck out, ending the inning. In the third inning Erickson smashed a two-bagger to left field. Lafferty was out, third to first. Gorman fanned. Fenton walked. Nolan hit a single to center, scoring Erickson. Warden was out second to first. The Giants registered their first hit of the game in the sixth inning, as follows: F. Duncan was thrown out, short to first. Luther hit a two-base wallop to left field. W. Green struck out. Winston went out on a foul fly along the third base line. The Giants scored their only run in the eighth inning, when F. Duncan beat out a hit to short and stole second. Luther then hit to left field. F. Duncan was thrown out at third. Green reached first on an error by Weisner. Green stole second and made third on an error by Erickson. Winston hit to second, scoring Green. F. Duncan, the veteran, was thrown out third to first. The score: CHICAGO GIANTS R R PO A P W.

Geneva, Ill., Aug. 5.—"Lil" Arthur Johnson is having his troubles getting along with what the Johnson family calls "the big white folks." One of them is quoted as having said, the Sunday of Jack's arrival, that the exchamp's interest was being looked after by "big white folks"; they seemed to have spoke the truth, for it is observed that the "big white folks" have removed Johnson from Jolet on account of his ice cream escapades with the sheer of that county and turned him over to Sheriff Poole of Geneva, who is said to be of the creamless disposition. It's hard on poor Jack to go without his cream, but we reckon the "big white folks" will take care of him. Mail for Mr. Johnson will now reach him at Geneva, Ill. Oh. yon "big white folks." COLORED GOLF STARS MAKE PROTEST Jackson Park Golf Club is a member of the Western Golf Association. Last year in order to eliminate colored players a rule was enforced that all participants must be members of properly constituted clubs. The colored players met this requirement by organizing the Windy City Golf Club Association. The further restriction made this year was that the club must be affiliated with the Western Golf Association. This is almost impossible for a colored club to be admitted in the Western Golf Association for its card admits its holder to play on any course within the membership Jackson Park is a public golf ground which is operated by the South Park Commissioners. The rule says that no special privileges or permits will be granted to any club or society. This rule is broken when the Jackson Park Golf Club is granted special permit to hold their championship games. It is felt by members of the Windy City Golf Club that this discriminatory action has been taken to prevent Robert Ball, colored golf star, from competing. Ball last year equalled Chick Evans' score of 69, and came within 1 of equaling the amateur record of 68.

THE CHICAGO WHIP ORTS RUBE'S CREW FLAYS MONARCHS Ten Thousand See Home Team Humiliated After Holding Five Run Lead For Half the Kansas City, Mo.—The first day's play at the far west city was an eventful one from many points of view; in the first inning, for Chicago, Torrentiti smashed out a slashing triple with two on and set the large crowd dippy; in the Monarch's half of the same inning, McNair duplicated the feat of our center gardener; then Grant and Donaldson staged a first fight in which many cops, ball players and fans nearly played an interesting part. The affair amounted to Grant putting the big southpaw to the ground and then both were banished from the game. The Monarchs looked to have the game all sewed up; in fact, they did have it all stacked away with a comfortable lead of 7 to 2, which prevailed until the eighth; then things began to eventuate. Six hits, a few mistakes, a stolen base or so put the Windy City boys up to even terms, and they took the fray in the ninth after outgaming the westerners causing the latter to display the unmistakable signs of quits. Johnson worked for the Chicago crew and Currie shot for the home gang. The Chicagoans are right on edge for the toughest gruelling extant, and before the present series is finished there is going to be some gore spilled and the Foster fighters look to be on the heavy end of the offensive.

It is said if he is not stopped from losing balls by knocking them into oblivion they wont have enough with which to finish the season's games. Yet they can be knocked out by a duck card as Babe out of the national game, else the gate receipts will fade into infinite nothingness.

Streeter is the name of this king pitcher. In a recent game played with some of the greatest batters in the Southern League this giant struck 72 runs in a game. He allows a single man to knock a ball. It is said that he has more curve and better control than any other man who has tossed a ball.

Tom Williams, Chicago hurler, who had not lost a game previous to the second tilt with the Monarchs hurled a splendid game for the Chicago gang, allowing the Monarchs eleven hits, while his mates collected a dozen off Rogan's benders, but the Kansas City flinger kept the base knocks well scattered and retired thirteen opposing batters via the strike-out route. With two down in the ninth, and the game apparently lost, the Chicago club staged a rally and succeeded in tying the count, a trio of healthy blows doing the work. In the twelfth inning Moore was wounded. Donaldson forced him and scored when Rogan followed with a double. A wild demonstration followed. Possibly He Didn't Make the Sale, but He Surely Knew What Hubby Needed. She was evidently in a hurry, and the fierce glare in her eye aroused the young bookstall clerk from his reverie. "Look here," she said. "I want a book for my husband. It's his birthday. And I want it for a present. Show me what you have "Look here," she said. "I want a book for my husband. It's his birthday. And I want it for a present. Show me what you have and be quick about it! Nothing too expensive, mind you, and I don't want anything too cheap, either. He's a mild-mannered man and not fond of sports, so don't show me anything in that line. For goodness' sake, don't offer me any of these trashy novels, and no matter how much you try to persuade me I don't take anything in the way of history or biography. Come now, I'm a dreadful hurry, and I've already wasted too much time here. Of course, you don't know my husband, but from all I've said can't you suggest something appropriate?" "Yes, ma'am," was the assistant's reply, after an instant's reflection. "Here is a little volume entitled, 'How to Manage a Talking Machine.'" Cat Climbs Own Tail. Bessie, the kinkajou, at the zoo, is the wonder of the innates of the small cat house, for she can climb up her own tail, says the London Chronicle. If you see Bessie yawning you will know that she has been giving "mathees" in return for grapes and bananas, for the kinkajou is a nocturnal animal and should pass the day in sleep. She is very much attached to her keeper—as you would agree if you saw her hanging from his finger by the tip of her long prebensile tail. When tired of gazing at his feet she obtains a more cheerful aspect by arching her back, seizing the base of her tail with her hand-like paws and climbing up it. Folklore About the Hair. A heavy head of hair indicates few if any virtues, according to folklore gathered from many parts of the world. The Turks claim that women with short intellect have long hair. The Albanians say with finality, "Long hair, little brains." Other contributors say that much hair indicates ungovernable temper and inclination to melancholy. "If a girl has a great deal of hair, she will marry poverty, while the girl with little hair will marry rich" according to another source. Curly hair is a sign of a scald, and also early wildewidow if the hair falls in little curls at the back of the neck. A long and peaceful life is promised the owner of hair that grows low on the forehead and retreats up the side of the head over the temples. Chestnut or brown hair denotes fairness in dealings, generosity, absence of deceit, but unhappiness in domestic life. PLENTY OF GROUNDS 1st Friend: Hello Bill! Goin' to th' doctor's again?

Betty, aged three, asked numerous questions. One day, while her mother was washing, she asked: "Why do you starch clothes, mamma?" Her mother told her that clothes did not look nice if they weren't starched. The next day Betty asked her mother if she looked all right, and her mother said that she should put on a clean dress, and Betty said: "Oh, mamma, you can starch me instead." A Humble Opinion. "What this country needs is more production." "What the country needs," replied Farmer Cornotssel, with a slight trace of irritation, "is less talk about what it needs an' more enthusiasm about deliverin' the goods." Vain Remorse.

WORKS WITHOUT A BATTERY Ingenious Flashlight Evolved by the Germans During the Closing Days of the War. When the Germans could get no more batteries for pocket flashlights they invented a flashlight that needed no battery, and this was used extensively by officers in the army in the last year of the war. A few of these ingenious things reached New York recently as samples, a manufacturer desiring to know whether there would be a sale for them in America. Instead of a battery to supply the electric current to the lamp, there is a dynamo. This is set in motion by pulling a chord which, through a train of cog-wheels and a coiled mainspring, starts an armature spinning between six coils, thus producing the electric current that serves the lamp. Each downward pull of the cord produces enough electricity for five seconds. Batteryless Flashlight Is Operated by a Cord. Batteryless Flashlight Is Operated by a Cord. The apparatus is not much bigger than a shoe-polish box and much the same shape; it is hung by a cord from the neck, the operating cord hanging below in a position convenient for pulling. The mechanism is housed in a tin box, palover gasket, lid is easily removable, but is watertight. Every time the cord is pulled the spring returns it instantly to its position of rest, so that one can have a steady light by keeping on pulling the cord. The mechanism is strongly made, and there seems no reason why it should not last indefinitely. It is not quite so convenient as a flashlight with a battery, but it has the advantage over this of containing no essential part that must constantly be renewed and that has a habit of giving out just when it is impossible to renew and when it is urgently needed. —New York World. QUEER CUSTOMS OF ESKIMOS Abiding Faith in Odd Beliefs Not Infrequently Works to Their Serious Disadvantage. Superstition is still a silent monarch among the Eskimos. When the men are away after sea animals the women are not permitted to work on the skins of land animals; and when the men hunt caribou the women must not touch the skins of sea animals. Men must not work on iron until three days after the polar bear has been hunted. The first seal killed in a day's hunting is brought into the igloo through a special hole cut into the ice walls, and the eyes are punched out before it is dragged in the room to prevent its soul seeing the interior, which would bring bad luck. When the whale-hunting season opens the Eskimos have a dance fest that lasts for a week; and while the Angakook, or medicine man, is demonstrating his ability and arranging details, the ice breaks sometimes and the whales get out into the sea, leaving the celebrating Eskimos without even one catch. Stefansson, who spent many years among the Eskimos, says they pick up Christianity quickly, because it forbids so many things, and they marvel at Sunday—a day set aside for rest—of which they never dreamed. Odd Funeral Equipment. Even funeral customs are changing. A London correspondent writes: "I saw a remarkable funeral yesterday. Four swiftly moving taxicabs, gleaming in the sun, came along Tachbrook street, Pimlico, S. W. The roof of the leading cab was covered with blooms. In the distance it looked as though it were a marriage party, but inside the first taxicab was a coffin almost enveloped in flowers. The occupants of the cabs—men and women—were not wearing mourning, at any rate not the orthodox black. I know no details of the funeral, but others, like myself, as they raised their hats out of respect for the dead, turned again to look on an unusual scene." Use "Danderine" to promote growth and luxuriance A. A small bottle of "Danderine" costs but a few cents at any drug store. "Danderine" is to the hair what fresh showers of rain and sunshine are to vegetation, making the hair grow long, strong and beautiful. Besides beautifying the hair, "Danderine" stops hair falling out, all dandruff disappears and scalp never itches. Try "Danderine" and just see what 'ong, soft, attractive hair you can have.

Jt is lithe wonder that the authori ties and, in fact, citizens of Mexico, ave so brutal in their treatment of their fellow-men, Uniortunately for them, Mexico is near Texas, Tt is common gossi» among, the citizens of this town that none of the mea in- dicted for the burning of these two innocent men will be convicted. In the first place, they say that the author- ities who’ will have to do_ with the prosecution are likely to find some hear or distant relative as x member ‘of the mob, ‘They comend that it is a rare thing for a lynching to occur be this state without the guiding spirit gftep being a city or county, oficial Tf these facts be true, a conviction is hardly possible and it apply means that another mob of blood-thirsty: sav- ages will be allowed to go tacor rected by the law. These opinions seem to be sustained by.an affair which took place at Can- toone Taxa April 21st this ear, when Chas, Lansdale, Wiliam Long and Tom Lay, all white, entered pleas of guilty to manslaughter in the county court for participation in a lynching, These men were given two year sentences in the county jail Which on motion of their counsel were suspended for an indeinite hetiod: SPEGIAL SERMONS AT QUINN CHAPLL DURING AUGUST Dr. Stewart, of Quinn chapel, ts conducting q series of sermons during he month of March that will be of special interest to the general public These sermons and programs accom: panying them are especially prepared and a special effort should be made te attend them.

Ancient Greek Medicine— oi faa e: The laws of Hammarubi show, iron the earliest. writings, that the firs medicine service after an advance ha heen made from fetish worship. an | Shamanism, were of a surgical nature Pythagoras’ (380 B,C.) was, looke ‘upon as being the founder of phylo |sophical medicine. The Aledanderiar Library _of Medicine was founded i 320 B.C. This period was graced by “Hippocorates who was born in. 46 IB. C., aid was... rai father of al medical science. It is said that the Greeks were th: wisest, wittiest, and most versatil bf all ancient people. They were : complete nation made up of variou: adventurous tribes from Tonia, Thes saly and Arcadia, They were prac tically isolated from the rest of th world by their semi-insular and di versified country, indented with deey arms of the sea and protected by) abrupt mountain walls. The inhabi tants became strong, patriotic, prow and self-centered while at the same time they enjoyed the cultural ad. Vantages of {ree maritime intercours with the outside world. The worl can never repay its obligation to the Greeks for the formative impetus they gave to the human mind nor for the example of beauty and excellence with which they have embellished the earthly existence of every man, For the science, grandeur of their sur- roundings, their inborn love of beauty and excellence in mind, body and estate bore abundant iruit and iu respect’ shaped the thoughts and originated the ideas for all succeed ing generations of mankind Medicine, as in the fine arts, philos- ophy, rhetoric and poetry laid the foundation for all future developmen and themselves reached degrees of ex cellence which has in some respect: hever been surpassed. As modern religion reverts back to “Jesus. the Man of Nazareth,” modern’ medicine looks back to Hippocrates of Greece The Greeks being made up of number of roving war-like and seafar- ing tribes, who worshipped a variety of gods, had an assortment of tutelary and medical deities. Detemere was the divinity of farmers Dionysius of yine growers, Poseidon of sailors, and so on. Medicine had its gods and godesses also, who presided over different functions of the body and were able to produce and cure human diseases and to send plagues and pestilences and to avert them, The same disease might be caused by dif ferent deities at diferent times. In the Hippocratic account of the “sacred diseases” (epilepsy) so. called, ap parently becatise epileptics were thought to be possessed with devils oF spits, the seizures are attributed fo diferent, “detis as follows: they imitate a. goat, or_ grind thd’ ei ott theif right slde, bs" con. vulsed they say that the ntother of fhe gods (Cybele) is the cause, If they speak in a sharper, shriller tone they liken this state to a horse and say that Poseidon is the cause, but i ; foam be emitted from the mouth and the patient kick with his feet Ares (Mars) gets the blame. ‘There were a great number of gods and goddesses who possessed the powe! (f healing and of causing diseases There was Apollo (cailed Alexikakos) the averter of ills, He was also di rector of the sum and the giver o Light. Apollo was, as well as a god of healing, god of poetry, art-and music, and dispenser of justice; he was also physician-in-ordinary, receiving name cf Palan, thus we have the term “sons of Palan” applied to physicians. Of the gods and godesses who influence ills and healing were with Apollo Centaur Chiron, Jason, Hercules, Achilles and Aesculapios, who was the son of Apollo, Aeschulapius was struck and killed by a thunderbolt, Jupiter hurled at him to please Pluto, because of diminished number of deaths. Temples, called Asclepieia, were erected in his honor and he was made the object of thei worship, These temples later proved to be nothing more than, “Devine Sanatoria,”" where the sick wer treated. “Much of the treatment ir these sanitoria depended upon analysis of the patient's dreams. If the patient recovered he was expected to present a thank offering {0 the god. whict usually was a model of the diseasec part in wax, silver or gold, having ¢ history of ‘the treatment’ attached In instances the patients were healec by the anointment of the sick while asleep by the god or that one of the sacred dogs of snakes in the templ had licked the Rees parts, One sufferer who had lost the use of fou fingers, another who was blind, an other who had an ulcer of the stom ach, and still another who had car ried a spear point in his jaw for si years were all cured by the method stated above, so the records show (Continued next week) we DUE REGARD FOR RIGHT, WITH PURITY OF MO.

The Colored American to-day has no particular type, no char- acteristic majority that would represent fairly to the world to-day what has been styled as a typical Negro. To the contrary he is a heterogeneous class, variegated like the rainbow and resembling each and every type that the human phenomena exposes, from the flaxen- haired blue eyed Anglo-Saxon to the Ebony hued curly headed Sene- gambian. Every type of every racial group from the four corners of the earth can be found within the Colored race and science baffled says: They all are Negroes. Making an apology for Science, how- ever, we say that Geneticians and Biologists have not been intellectu- ally honest. Their conclusions, however, are generally accepted even by the United States Supreme Court—that one-sixteenth Negro blood is a sufficient proportion to classify an individual as Colored. We have been forced to accept the conclusion; but we do not accept the premises from which it was reached. However, the grand majority of these individuals that have been thrown into the dis- ordered ranks of American Negroes, have accepted the ultimatum ‘and now they are for all beneficial purposes Negroes or Colored people and as Negroes they think, live and are treated accordingly; and with them our problem is concerned. From the dawn of civilization in th; valley. otamia between Se oa poniranes Gath aya tials men: have had their clans, groups and caste systems. Civilization has been retarded, clans have waxed and waned, caste wars have been ram- pant, and the very back-bone of racial groups have been fractured and broken, and the whole world has been bathed in blood because of Caste,Systems and Class Clannishness. We need not unfold the pages of history and look into the anrals of the past, but let us look at the present, the ever absorbing: At Ireland, at Algeria, at Hindu- stan, at Shantung, at Ficme, and at America, and here let us draw the veil and look behind the Color Curtain. Behind this Curtain we see an infant race of people mottled and mongrel, struggling under the heel of oppression, wrestling with gigantic problems, groping and sometimes tottering but ever and ‘anon struggling, struggling within the veil for recognition and for the materializing of the much vaunted Ideals of liberty, Justice and Democracy. But looking further behind the Color Curtain we also see the sinister heritable tendency of Caste, Clan and Group emanat- ing. WE SEE THE PROBLEM WITHIN THE PROBLEM, WE SEE THE COLOR LINE WITHIN THE COLOR LINE. Not with prophetic vision but with experience from the past, we contend that Racial Solidarity will be doomed, Racial Advancement will be defeated and Racial respect will be denied unless this evil is crushed out in its incipiency. WE WANT NO PROBLEM WITHIN A PROBLEM. WE WANT UNITY; WE WANT RACIAL COHE- SION; WE WANT RACE LOVE. We cannot have a Social group that stands aloof from teeming millions of the race. We want no aristocratic Lily Whites. We want no groups of high yellows, deep browns or fast blacks. Such racial lines tend to disorganize the colored family. We want a racial family fighting the common cause. We want no social Auto- crats. We want Racial self respect. The Black Man is the social equal of the Octoroon and the Mulatto is the Social equal of the proud Anglo-Saxon, color intrinsically must play no part. GIVE US A SOLID FRONT. Brazil has no discrimination along such lines and let us pattern after our Latin friends: ALL FOR ONE AND ONE FOR ALL. . ° The American Conscience The American conscience is rather freaky. In some matters it is intensely sensitive and alert; but, in all matters which have to do with the Negro it is “‘seared over with a hot iron.” Strange as it may seem to be, the student of history will note that the greatest names in American history are those who have dared to defend the right and plead for justice to the American Negro. Just now we have no brave and fearless, as well as capable statesman whose conscience suggest to him such a policy. Strange that this Nation can furnish so much eloquence to plead for Belgium and Poland and none to grapple with its own iniquities. What shall we say for a Nation where men and ‘women assemble in large groups intent upon violence, plunder and ‘murder upon the helpless member or members of a race which they delight to tell the world is a weaker people. And what shall be con- ‘luded of a people in whose hands are both the making and the ‘execution of the laws of the land when they will not abide by the processes of law which they have created and ordained when they are the judge and jury in all the cases of grave or trivial importance. By what process of reasoning do they reckon that they may despoil the woman of another people and escape the consequences of their sins. Truly the American conscience is fearfully freakish and strange. When a people can read of the horrible burning of human being: while the crowds make of it a gala day; I say when a people can read ‘of this without grave concern; when there can not be found a priest ‘or prophet to condemn it in vigorous language, nor statesman whose keen sense of justice and fair play would prompt him to champion the right and condemn the wrong; when a people prate loudly about the ills of Belgium but are deaf and mute to the inhumanities heve it deserves to be reminded that it should cast the beam out of its own eye.

THE CHICAGO WHIP G.0. P. NOMINEES DECLARE FOR JUSTICE TO NEGRO | , Chicago, Aug. 4—Senator Warre: |G, Harding's conception of the dur: ‘of the federal government to the loya colored citizenship of the country, em [bodied in ‘his epeech accepting, th Republican nomination for President at Marion, Ohio, July 22, has over shadowed all other issues in| th minds of. colored Americans, Wit! characteristic conéentration Sento Harding interpreted the fondest hope andilesires of the colored people, pro ceeded directly to a‘policy that woulc bring about their consummation, an wrove home and ¢linched an essentia ruth which has sheen tugging fo ars at the jusf American heart which has been denied by “lesser v.ceds without the law,” and relent. lessly striven for hy the law-abiding canbitions and progsessive colored rman 7 Senator Harding, if full sympathy with the race, did u6t do the common. place thing: just simply comdemn lynching. Everybody does that, We nrmly believe that Mose who engage in the disgraceful practice, conden it. The candidate for President foune a remedy for it, He said not in mournful numberss “I believe the federal government should stamp out lynching and remove that stain from the fair name of America.” From this unequivocal stand the colored people. of the country have taken heart, and the hope and faith spring eternal thatgwith the election of Harding there i} be a new era of pportunity and endeavor open to the race. “There was go soft pedal em- pioyed by the statement made by Sevntor Harding, Swho went even further and said: “I believe the negro crzens of America should be guar- anteed the enjoyment of all their Tights, that they haye earned the ful meastire of citizenship bestowed, that their sacrifices in blood on the battle- fields of the republic have entitled them to all of freedom and oppor- tunity, all of sympathy and aid that the American spirit of fairness and justice demands.” Tt has been more than a score of years since such generous words of encouragement have been given out by a candidate for President and this speech is being enthusiastically re ceived by the colored leaders all over the country, and their commendation of the candidate who has evinced the courage to go on record is unanimous. Among colored people, quite as keen as the average. American upon a issues affecting the country, the League of Nationggand other ques- tions, both nation: d international in which the country is embroiled, have been forced intg the back-ground in the face of a new dawn of racial justice, which Seni Harding prom- ises to America by Jnterposing the strong arm of the fedéral government to put an end to the curse of lynch- ings, which is 2-blot upon our-na- tional eseutcheon. x White it has beén'the rule among colored people to look upon the Re- publican party as their champion, the position assumed by Senator Harding is a Jong way in advance of anything that has been said or done in years, Colonel Den‘scn” Comments Col, Franklin A. Denison, late of the Eighth Illinois regiment, and present assistant attorney-general of that State, commenting. upon the at- titude of the Republican candidate for President, said: “Whatever the col- ored man gets in the way of recogni- ticn or encouragement comes from the Republican party, bit Senator Harding has gone all previous aspir- ants to the presidency one better by holding out a tangible solution of the questions that are held_as a sword of Damocles over his head. That word of Harding's that the federal govern- ment should get after lynchers will make many a criminal against the life and constitutional rights of the col- ored man tremble in his boots. “Every colored man and woman who voies, should vote for Harding and Coolidge, and every white man who believes in the supremacy of the Jaw and an even justice to all men should do 0, too.” Marion, Ohio, Aug. §,—Senator Harding received today a letter from Dr. James Francis Lawson, of Chi- cago, a member of the staff of Col. Oris 'B, Duncan, of the famous Eighth IMinois Regiment, congratulating him wpon his speech of acceptance.
